Hello I need your help.

For some reason I can not open TVPaint anymore, because that stupid mac of my for some reason can not find the dongle anymore. Even thought it still glows. Here is screenshot of the problem.

Hi,

Can you tell me which version of macOS you are using (Sierra, High Sierra) ?

Could I possibly get a link for the proper dongle driver also? Mine stopped working, and I went to the Sentinel driver page listed in the FAQs, but--honestly--I don't know which driver to download....tried one, it didn't work.

Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.3

Thanks!

Chris

Found the answer in the FAQ
You need to install the Sentinel System Drive from the link provided there

Cheers

Hi, Inkamon-

Asking for a friend who has High Sierra and experiencing similar issue with the dongle not being recognized:

This is the link in the FAQ - https://sentinelcustomer.gemalto.com/sentineldownloads/

I'm wondering, from that list of drivers, which one did you download that worked for you ?

I'm having the same problem. I even downloaded the new version of the sentinel protector and TVPaint still doesn't recognize my dongle. It doesn't help that I had just recently recovered from a massive reboot of my iMac. :(

These are the latest instructions for getting High Sierra to install and recognize the dongle:

You need to use the Sentinel driver 7.4.2 ( download link for driver 7.4.2 is at the link above)

I've done that multiple times and it still didn't notice my dongle.
