Hi,
My Macbook Air with Mavericks will not show a USB connection to Arduino Uno Rev 3. I have tried installing the drivers from: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm but still no luck. Any suggestions appreciated.
Regards,
Alex
MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
You can go to settings, and there should be this input or usb settings or something
try going there and scan any inputs
then you'll find it.

In system preferences I cant find where I should scan for USB devices?

Did you try to the Getting Started Guide for OSX: http://arduino.cc/en/guide/macOSX
Yes, followed exactly and installed the suggested drivers. Trying to determine if the board is faulty.
Right so I can now see a device under USB (see 1st image) but still no USB ports listed in the Arduino IDE (2nd image)...
Hi, I am facing the same issue right now. Did you solve your problem?
I'm running Yosemite on a Late 2011 MacBook Pro...
I've used Arduino IDE 1.0.5 and have recently upgraded to Arduino IDE 1.6.1
I've never had to install special USB drivers.
I simply connect the Arduino UNO R3 to the USB port.
In Terminal, perform the following command
ls -al /dev/tty.usb*
This command will list the USB port for the Arduino, e.g. /dev/tty.usbmodemfa131
Sure enough, this device appears under Arduino -> Tools -> Port
Make sure the Arduino is connected to the USB port.
Stumbled across this. It worked for Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5
install the CH340 driver
Run the command in Terminal:
sudo nvram boot-args="kext-dev-mode=1"
Reboot
However, I installed:
MAC system：http://www.wch.cn/downfile/178
so YMMV

found the solution, there:
http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=261375.15
so kudos - to all that sweated out the driver, uninstall, install, and activation...

This worked for me, thanks a million!
Mac does not show UBS as a serial port option for Arduino Uno
