Proxmark3 easy and max os

Support
#1

Hello Forum,

First of all, thank you very much for the welcome and all this information.
But I’m at a loss at the moment and have been for several days.
The following problem: I can’t establish a connection to proxmark3 easy, i.e. when I enter pm3 in the terminal, nothing happens.
I have also looked at which USB ports are addressed but nothing is listed from iceman, pm3 or proxmark etc…
Even when I connect the proxmark3 easy, the white LED is off and the red LED flashes briefly.

What can I do?
About my system
MacOS Monterey V12.2.1
Intel core i5

Thanks for your help
Kind regards
Bones

which guide did you follow?

this one?

Also have you tried “the ol’ holding the button for 30 sec whilst flashing trick”?

Short answer yes :grin:

When I want to flash the pm3 with pm3-flash-all the terminal give me the message “waiting for Proxmark3 to appear” and I also hold the button at this time for then 30 sec.
And that’s all nothing will happen anymore…

I stopped it and tried this

proxmark3 /dev/tty.usbmodemiceman1 --flash --unlock-bootloader --image /usr/local/share/proxmark3/firmware/bootrom.elf --image /usr/local/share/proxmark3/firmware/fullimage.elf

There was also an Error with a Log File
