Help! Lg 2130 Not Working On Mac Osx 10.3

[camerevolution 0]

hey guys,

this is out of sheer desperation...

I bought a USB data cable for the LG 2130 and installed all the drivers on my mac that runs OS 10.3 (Panther).. for some reason it does not detect the port/modem...

was going through your list and saw that another member - "the meanest indian" had faced the same problem, which he solved on his own...

PLEASE CAN U TELL ME HOW U GOT IT TO WORK!!! AM DESPERATE!!

ANYONE!!

your efforts will be much appreciated!!!

thanks.

I've noticed that you've sent a PM to him, lets hope he will be able to reply to you soon.

I haven't faced this issue, but see if this helps....

Assuming u have a 3rd party cable,

Since 2130 has a native serial connectivity so all USB cables for 2130 have a Serial to COM emulation chip inside (normally PL2303 in 3rd party cables)

Since ur OS ois not detecting a new port, i guess the drivers u r using are not correct...

Go to Profilic's website...www.profilic.com.tw (or similar, do a google if this doesn't work) and search for PL2303 (USB-serial converter) chip drivers for OS-X...use them and see if it works...do post ur findings too

thanks for coming in time...

Are you sure you entered the username/password correctly ? (in the format 93********) ?

me Thinks u r either not enetering the UID PW correctly (93xxx format and not 093....)

Also, back to the basics, did u give the Reliance guys a call to get your R-Connect activated...the old method (dialing *412 or whatever that no was) doesn't workl any longer and you need to call up the helpline number to get this done
