Many USB>Serial cables contain counterfeit chips.  The legitimate makers 
fought back by installing driver instructions that disable the 
counterfeit.  Maybe your update finally caught up.  The Elecraft cables 
are legitimate.  Don't buy cheap knock-offs from the Internet.

I reinstalled the FTD driver for the serial cable, tried both my iMac and MacBook and neither finds the P3 responding. I have not been on the air for several months so I am not sure when the issue arose.
