Note:
- It seems like after updating Mac OS, D2XX drivers will be replaced by OS drivers.
- In this case, you need to repeat the Step-by-Step instructions once again, otherwise your Enttec device will not be recognized.

Problem:
- DMX USB PRO not found ?

- Download & install this utility, and disable the Apple/VCP Driver: http://www.dmxis.com/release/FtdiDriverControl.zip
- - Simply run the utility, click the button and type in your password.
- - You must be logged into OS X as an admin user (verify this from System Preferences > Users & Groups)
- - You must have a non-blank password configured (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13861 )
- - Once you have disabled Apple/VCP driver , please replug DMX USB PRO into USB port or restart your Mac, and DMX USB PRO will be found as expected
