You could try to find and external, powered USB C to USB2 hub to connect to your Mac and connect the arduino from the hub.

The Nano 33 IOT connects with a micro USB cable and uses Native USB capabilities présent in the SAMD21 Cortex®-M0+ Processor. The traditional Nano uses a Mini-B USB cable which data lines connect to the on board FTDI USB-to-TTL Serial chip which is connected to the processor (and pins 0 and 1). Note that the cable used for Nano and Nano 33 IoT are different (totally agree with EU push for only one cable type) or this would not be such a mystery.ĭoes anyone know if the driver needed is different between the Nano and the Nano 33 IoT? Now that I have power but no data I am trying to figure out if it is a cable or driver issue with the different Nano. Then I bought a second cable that gets power to the Nano, but the upload reports that the port cannot be found (the port shows in System Information). The first cable that I bought claimed to be OTG, but I had no luck getting it to work (could not even get power to the Nano). Now I am trying to get the regular Nano to work.
MACPORTS PORT COMMAND NOT FOUND INSTALL
With an install of the ch34xser_macos) driver that is noted earlier, and the OTG cable, the Nano 33 IoT works with my MacBook Pro with the M1 Apple Silicon. The other thing that was needed is a CH34 driver. Specifically it seamed that it needed to be OTG (On The Go) compatible. I started out with the IoT board and learned quickly that you need a quality cable that supports both power and data, not just data. I am working with an official Arduino Nano and a Nano 33 IoT.
