Based on what you're telling me, The miner appears to be detected MacOS. take a look at this procedure to remove the VPS modem driver:

As you suggested I tried this but still with no luck on this machine ..

and even with no hashrate somehow it was just satisfying to install cgminer with homebrew !

Code:

When you mentioned swapping from USB2 and USB3 i figured; imo if you have the technical expertise to setup a Hackintosh, I would recommend you dual boot into Ubuntu on a separate drive. it will be far less PITA to troubleshoot on your exact, same hardware. Even the Identifier (e.g. imac13,1 imac13,2 imac14,2) you picked in Clover can make a huge difference as to how ports are addressed, and is typically hardware-specific to your motherboard and chipsets. I can help out with mining on MacOS, but troubleshooting hackintoshes is out of my wheelhouse.

I ended up buying a ssd where I will be installing Ubuntu as you recommended, hopefully I can manage.

I am looking at the latest version for desktop 19.04, is this one ok or should I go with the previous version 18.04 ?

Thank you for all the help !
