Hi vmdouglass,
you can uninstall the driver that you have now. Run the Uninstaller from the Driver package with a restart upon completion.
Then go to our page with the legacy drivers and download 3DxWareMac 10.2.2.

Re: Using El Capitan
I just downloaded the latest driver: (10.2.5) It does not recognize the device wirelessly for more than a millisecond then it disappears.
I tried uninstalling; removing the existing preferences, restart and then reinstalled: it still does not work at all.

Re: Using El Capitan
Just to confirm from my previous post:
I am running OS X El Capitan, version 10.11.2
I am running this on a Late 2013 Macbook Pro with Retina Display.

Re: Using El Capitan Google Earth Pro
Need help w/ getting Space Mouse and Google earth Pro to work. Support provided the following
The issue is caused by Google delivering outdated 3Dconnexion libraries with Google Earth. We have already asked Google to correct this but the issue hasn't been solved yet. Please make sure to file a report with Google regarding this issue to make Google aware that its users need a fix for this problem.
A workaround for the problem would be to copy the files from the 3Dconnexion library to Google Earth’s library. We can provide instructions to do this, but note that you are doing this on your own responsibility.
In a terminal:
If you want to copy the file in a terminal this would be the command to do it:
cp -r /Library/Frameworks/3DconnexionClient.framework //GoogleEarth.app/Contents/Frameworks/
Note: may or may not be “/Applications”; it depends where Google Earth is located on your machine.
With the Finder:
If you copy the file within the Finder make sure NOT to move the framework out of its location: /Library/Frameworks/.
Open the GoogleEarth bundle (“Show package contents”) in the finder.
Copy /Library/Frameworks/3DconnexionClient.framework to //GoogleEarth.app/Contents/Frameworks/ via drag
Not familiar on how to find the file in finder. Did a search for : Library/Frameworks/3DconnexionClient.framework and was unable to located.
Any help for dummies....

please verify if the receiver is detected by the OS:
- Go to "About This Mac".
- Open the "System Report".
- In the left column open "Hardware" and select "USB". Is the receiver listed in the "USB Device Tree"?
Let me know what you find out.
