PICkit 3 not recognised by Computer
I got a completely new PICkit 3, MPLAB X on a MacBook Pro and the PIC16F1827. I set up a new project with the xc8 compiler and, to my knowledge set up everything correctly. Then I connected my PICkit and thought that it would start downloading and flashing a new firmware.
Instead it just flashed the STATUS LED red and nothing happened. I have power on the PICkit and the connection is active.
This is what I get, when trying to start a debugging session:
I tried reinstalling MPLAB X and to switch the USB Cable, in case it was faulty. Any suggestions?
The fault was actually Apples System Integrity Protection, which prevented the installer from changing vital permissions of one installation folder. By now this has probably already been resolved in the new versions.
But in case anyone still needs it:
Reboot your mac into recovery mode.
Open the terminal.
Type
csrutil disable#this disables the SIP on your machineReboot and install MPLAB X
Reboot into recovery again and reenable SIP (with
csrutil enable)
