Cannot connect to M3D Micro on MacOS Big Sur

[IhorSyerkov]

Application doesnt see printer connected via USB.
In Serial Port menu only one option Auto.
(Windows veriosn works fine)

M33 Manager V0.16
OS: MacOS Bir Sur 11.4

Thanks :)

Any clue on how to fix this? I'm having the same problem.

I'm on Big Sur 11.4 also. I don't know if the connection stopped working at a specific version of macOS because I just pulled the printer out of a closet to play with it. I haven't used it in years.

I don't know cpp. But I looks like void Printer::updateAvailableSerialPorts() doesn't fill availableSerialPorts vector.
Priter device actually appears as /dev/tty.usbmodem14501 device. I'm not sure is it suppose to be usbmodem or usbserial

@majorcode good news. I was able to fix it. The only problem that I didn’t manage to create dmg package. You can try to pull my branch build it for your self. I hope @donovan6000 will help us with this final step :)

I have the same problem with my M3D Micro and the M33 manager. I'm using macOS Catalina (10.15.7) and the plugged-in M3D Micro connects as /dev/tty.usbmodem14101 but doesn't show up in M33 Manager. 🤷‍♂️
I will try to get your fix working, @IhorSyerkov ...

Oh no, it's dependant on wxWidgets which I don't have installed, obviously. Oh my. 😞

[metawops]

YEAH! I was successful! Had to download the wxWidgets source and compile it and afterwards installed it according to the OS X install.md file. Then I successfully built the M33 Manager from your branch, @IhorSyerkov (which gave several warnings I ignored). I was looking for the M33 Manager Icon but it's not there. Instead you just have to double click the created M33 Manager file that has the default Terminal icon. It launches a Terminal which, in turn, launches the M33 Manager GUI app. It shows as a default folder icon in the Dock.
Even better, the /dev/tty.usbmodem14101 entry showed up in the "Serial Port" dropdown list and my M3D Micro got detected. I was boldly able to flash its firmware to the iMe firmware, too. 🤩
Afterwards, the M33 Manager app did a bed position calibration succesfully.
Awesome work, @donovan6000!! 👍👍
Now let's get back to OctoPrint and see if that helps with the M33 Fio plugin. Here's a discussion about that in case you're interested.

The changes by @IhorSyerkov helped for me but compiling on Ventura was a bit of a pain. Updated the Makefile accordingly (now only requires you to brew install wxwidgets) and added an updated dmg here so you hopefully don't even have to build.
