There is no useful port in mac Big sur 11.6 for arduino

I'm having the same issue with an Arduino MKR1000.

I plug it in and see the green led light up, but the device does not show up in the Arduino IDE or my Mac's System Report. I only see the Bluetooth port in the IDE. I've tried two Macbook Pros running MacOS 12.0.1 and 11.6.1 and both have the exact same issue.

Here's a list of what I've tried with no success:

  • Two Macbooks running different versions of macOS
  • Multiple USB hubs, USB ports, and USB cables
  • Multiple versions of Arduino IDE (previous, current, nightly, 2.0 beta)
  • Multiple versions of Arduino IDE board manager packages
  • Manually resetting Arduino board (double pressing reset button)
  • Installing all possible drivers I've seen online

Starting to think it may be a defective board, as I've read reports that the LED can still light up despite the rest of the board being defective :confused:
