pixy not detected diver won't install

got my pixy today and i can’t update firmware install the driver or use pixymon on my windows 7 PC and my OS 10.9.2 MBP any idea or help? is there a way i can DL and install the driver my self?

I got the same problem (No pixy devices have been detected) on my OS10.8.5 MBP.

FIXED!: IT WAS A BAD USB CABLE!

I just got my Pixy and plugged it in to my mac (OS 10.9.2 / 8Gb / 2.93Ghz i7) and got connect / disconnect messages repeatedly. (see attached image).

I then followed a thread stating to hold the white button while connecting the mini usb and the bright light will turn/stay on.
Pixymon then gave me the following message.

error: No Pixy devices have been detected.
Pixy programming state detected.
error: Cannot set configuration for Pixy DFU device.

any help would be awesomely appreciated.

Not quite fixed. We’ve had similar issues due to a bad USB cable. Is there another cable you can try? You might try another USB port also.

thanks!

came across this post http://cmucam.org/boards/8/topics/2878?r=2947#message-2947 so i tried using another USB port (went from usb 2.0 to 3.0 and it worked on my windows 7 PC still not working on my MBP retina 10.9 which has usb 3.0 i believe
