Hey guys,

I recently bought a Mac Book and I would like to get the Tether Berry to work on my new lap top. I tried installing the Mac Beta and then tried connecting the black berry but then it says "failed to load the Blackberry Device" I tried uninstalling and re-installing I have the Pocket-Mac sync manager from the blackberry website. How do I get this Tether Berry app to work on my Mac Book? I have a bought version that works on my Dell laptop, I just need line by line instruction on how to install Mac Beta and get web anywhere I go. Please help!!!!

We seem to be having problems if you have PocketMac or Media Sync installed. You should do the following before running tetherberry. We'll be adding in this solution into our software shortly so in the future our software will do this, instead of the end user.

sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/BlackberryUSB.kext
sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/BlackberryUSBDev.kext

and when done running tetherberry do

sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/BlackberryUSB.kext
sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/BlackberryUSBDev.kext

If there is a file called RIMBBUSB.kext in their Extensions folder they should do

sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/RIMBBUSB.kext

and when done do

sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/RIMBBUSB.kext
