I have searched the mailing list for the answers to my question but it appears that what I have done should work. I have purchase a USB to serial adapter from two different vendors. One from ioGear, the other from i.Connect. In both cases the device drivers where installed and I could see the device in the System Profiller. However when I run the SerialPortSample program, I only see the Bluetooth devices. The sample code has been modified to find any serial type device so both the PDA-Sync and Modem devices get reported, but I never see the USB serial devices. I am running MAC OS X 10.5.3, with XCode 3.1. Shouldn't the USB serial devices enumerate just like the Bluetooth ones? What do I need to do? I can't quite remember the details but doing an ls -la /dev/ should reveal the tty devices they will probably have a name that includes some sort of manufactuers signature. If you can't find it that why do one ls -la without anything plugged in and the do another after plugging in the device compare and if there are addtions in the second one that is the serial device. If I searched around I could give better advice but I figure at least this advice is a fast response and it may work for you.
