[Ham-Mac] Serial to USB UPDATE

I got it to work by downloading and installing this driver:

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/drivers/pl2303usbtoserialdriver.html



I am having a USB-Serial issue.  I had my K3 RS232 port connected to my G5
for rig control, using Aether with a USB to Serial cable/adapter.  Worked
OK.  Using Leopard (15.5.6).

I replaced my G5 with a new Mac Mini (Intel, of course), and the rig control
no longer works.  I had migrated everything from the G5 to the Mini.

A Terminal/Console check revealed " Error opening serial port
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem - Resource busy(16)", so I installed
FTDIUSBSerialDriver, rebooted, and it still won¹t work.  I can't find
anything on the apple.com site/forums.

Any idea what I could do to get this to work again?

Thanks,
Robert
