I get this error when trying to load the nxt terminal. I have the Mac Version of Labview 8.5

I'm using mac 10.4.11 and 10.3.9 (multiple computers), with Labview 8.5 Student Edition, and I'm getting basically the same error.

An error occurred trying to load the NXT terminal

It works fine on a Windows XP laptop, which has a trial version of Labview that came with the 2009 FTC KOP, and I have successfully transferred programs to the NXT using it. However, I would greatly appreciate being able to transfer programs with my G4, as advertized. The NXT toolkit I downloaded is from only a month or two ago.

At first I had the same problem with Mac OS X 10.5 + LabView 8.5, but then I found out, that you have to install the driver for it to work. ( http://mindstorms.lego.com/support/updates/ ) After installing it everything worked for me.

 

Best Regards,

Thank you, that's exactly what I needed!

However, I had to go somewhere else to find it:

I am wanting to use my Macbook with OS 10.5.  I have Labview 8.2 installed and the Lego NXT toolkit, but when I launch to NXT terminal it shuts down my entire Labview Application.  I have installed the driver and firmware, but the problem still exists!
