When you use the term "driver filter", I guess you mean the FTDI driver (.kext) that needs to be installed for pre-macOS10.13 systems. Just for the heck of it, onto the macOS 10.15.7 iMac I installed the *.kext from a fresh copy of the 3.18.1 Waveforms digital image that I had on my desktop. Indeed, when I opened Waveforms 3.18.1, it did come up with the list of 7 steps in the process to remove said *.kext that I had just installed on a whim. In my grogginess, I did NOT unplug the AD2 while restarting the iMac. But the process worked, and upon restart and opening Waveforms, the AD2 is recognized and properly set up. I will try again tomorrow to upgrade to Waveforms 3.19.5 to get current. Thank you for your response, atilla.

First: I'm attempting to connect a brand new device. I can't get any of the above suggestions to work for the "no device detected" error in the device manager. System: iMac 2012, Analog Discovery 2, macOS 10.15.7, attempted both Waveforms 3.18.1 and 3.19.5. I've tried unplugging restarting, using the enumeration python script, etc. The device shows up on the system report under"about this mac". Actually and oddly, it shows up twice there under USB 3.0. Second: I just checked, and the AD2 connects with Waveforms 3.19.5 on a 2011 macBook Pro running macOS 10.13.6. Incidentally, it seems that the 3.19.5 installer does not actually have the FTDI driver, only an alias of it. EDIT oh bummer, now that doesn't work either. No device again. Now Waveforms is asking for the FTDI driver. I'm trying to install the FTDI driver version from 3.18.1, but its certificate is no longer valid and the installer seems to be hung up. Okay, there it finished and I am able to see the device again in Waveforms. Any other ideas about the installation on the first computer??
