On the older Macbook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010), we're still getting the espcomm_upload_mem failed errors, even with the new firmware. We noticed that the computer has a USB 2.0 (not 3.0) port, could that be the issue?

Hey Matt, After uploading the new firmware, I'm getting this error message when trying to save an active animation to the EightByEight directly from PatternPaint: Error updating blinky- please try again. Error Message: Command getFirmwareVersion…

Thanks, Matt! I'm using a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013) running OS 10.12.6. I was not using a USB hub, but tried putting one in between and got the same errors. I set up Arduino, ESP8266 via Board Manager, etc. on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 201…
