All my Arduino clones (Uno and Mega) work fine in High Sierra. Let me see if I can find the FTDI driver Some boards use the WCH chips. Those need a different driver.
I knew it had to be possible to view serial data in the OSX terminal window. Finally, a little googling told me what I needed to know. Here's how to read and send serial data from the terminal in OSX. VMware: Change Hardware Serial Number for Mac OS X There was an interesting question that was asked the other day about changing the hardware serial number for an Apple Mac OS X guest as the generated serial number is not compatible with services such as Apple Caching Service or iMessage.
You should be able to see the Vendor ID in the System Information App and work out from there if you need FTDI, WCH or some other driver. Additionally while searching for this I found reports that the FTDI drivers will actively not work with clone FTDI chips. (I can see their point, but that could prove very frustrating, punishing the victims not the offenders).
Question. How can I change serial number of my virtual machine? Answer NOTE: This feature is available only in Parallels Desktop Pro and Parallels Desktop Business editions. Find your current serial number First of all we need to know the current serial number of your virtual machine. To find it out do the following: OS X VM: Open Terminal on OSX VM execute the command: ioreg -l grep IOPlatformSerialNumber On OSX VMs serial number is usually presented in a 12-capital letters format.

Here's the example: Windows VM: Open Command Prompt on Windows VM execute the command: wmic bios get serialnumber On Windows VMs serial number usually has UUID of your VM. Here's the example: Linux VM: Open Terminal on Linux VM execute the command (with quotes): dmidecode grep 'Serial Number' On Linux VMs as on Windows VMs serial number usually also has UUID of your VM.
