LPC-Link not working on Mac

Hi,

About half a year ago I bought a LPCXpresso LPC812 board. It worked nicely then.
In the mean time I've build my own board based on a LPC812 and wanted to use the LPC-Link as a debug probe.
I've disconnected the target board from the probe and connected the probe to my Mac. I've also downloaded LPCXpresso 7.2.0.
When I click the "boot" button, I get a dialog "Initializing LPC-Link....", which after 10 seconds gives the error that there was a timeout connecting to the LPC-Link. It does not matter whether my custom target board is connected to the LPC-Link or not.
The LPC-link does show up in the USB devices list (as a Philips Consumer Lifestyle product).

How can I get the LPC-Link to work?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Remco Poelstra

Thank you very much. Switching to the neighbouring USB port did indeed make the LPC-Link work.
