Re-Installing MacDive and previous data
Posted: Thu Sep 14, 2017 12:17 pm
Hi,
I bought a license for MacDive several years ago and had several hundred dives recorded in it with loads of photos, gear, dive site info etc. I have all that info backed up in a hard drive (PDF download, licence, backups etc). But my computer recently crashed and had to be wiped of everything to start again. I've now reinstalled MacDive but it obviously no longer has the previous data in it.
A - Is there any way to re-instal the previous data I had (it's not in the iCloud just on the HD backup) and
B - I've now got a thousand or so more dives to import but I'm getting "Could not detect a valid serial port" error.
I'm running Mac OSX ElCapitan 10.11.6. I've installed the FTDI USB serial driver ver2.4.2 but still no joy. I've looked at the FTDIchip.com info on what to do if there are errors but am really confused by this. I don't want to start typing commands into my computer about deleting drivers etc if I'm not doing the right thing.
Can you give me some info on how to fix this please, thanks in advance. I'm using an Oceanic Geo 2.0
