Title: Official Mavericks USB driver available
Post by: audioengr on 9 May 2014, 06:31 pm
Finally :o

Email me and I'll send it to you until I can get it on the website.  Need some beta-testers to make sure it's solid.

Marco says to uninstall the older driver first.  I've asked him how to do that.

Thanks,
Steve N.

I followed the instructions at m2tech's website. The uninstaller asks for my password, which I entered the password for my Mac mini. I get message "Sorry, try again". I also get the message, "No receipt for ' com.m2tech.driver ' found at ' / '.

Hay suggestions?  Thanks for any help.

Hi Steve,

Thanks, for your response.  You are correct.  I am now getting a message stating m2tech driver not found.  I have one of the last OR4, if not the last, you built.  I think (I am not super technical) the driver used for my OR: EM_Usb_snowleopard.  Is there a way I can uninstall my driver and upgrade to Mavericks and still use my wonderful OR4?

Thanks, Gary

Hi Steve,
I encountered exactly the same problem as Gary.
I was trying to uninstall the M2Tech driver under 10.8.
Do I need to upgrade to 10.9 before I can uninstall the M2Tech driver?
Or any step I was missing?

Cheers,
Ken

I don't know why its not finding your driver.  You could just install Mavericks and then run the uninstall script again.  I didn't write this code, so I don't know how it works.  I'll email the question to M2Tech.

Here is the warning on M2Tech's website regarding upgrading to Mavericks (you are probably very aware already):

BEFORE INSTALLING THE NEW DRIVER FOR HIFACE, HIFACE EVO, YOUNG AND VAUGHAN YOU MUST UNINSTALL THE OLD DRIVER IN YOUR APPLE COMPUTER.

Does anyone know if the m2tech driver works with OS X El Capitan? It mentions Yosemite, but can't see any information on El Capitan. Just wondering before I upgrade if anyone has tried this - can't see anything online about any incompatibilities between the Empirical Overdrive (i.e., it's driver) and El Capitan.

Thanks,

Stephen

OR5 (Empirical audio Off-Ramp 5) crashed bluescreen death with El Capitan. Please be careful when upgrading.
I got 3 blue screen death as I tried 3 times. and finally my macbook wouldn't want to boot in anymore. I had to reinstall OS again.

Thanks for posting. I see that M2Tech has a warning on their home page on this.
