ADB can't find Nexus 7 on Mac OS X Mavericks

I recently installed Mac OS X Mavericks, and now adb can no longer detect my connection. I already tried:

  • Reboot PC and tablet
  • add a provider identifier to adb_usb.ini
  • switch from MTP to PTP and vice versa
  • change USB port

I also noticed that Android File Transfer is working fine.

How can I fix this problem?

As stated in the question, I tried to do different things, such as rebooting the PC and tablet, but nothing happened.

I also tried disabling the "developer options" on my device and then turning it back on, but again, no luck.

It may be useful to restart the ADB server with the following commands (via terminal):

[user]$ adb kill-server [user]$ adb start-server (or adb devices)

Or from within an eclipse:

  • Open perspective DDMS
  • Click on the drop-down menu next to the camera
  • Click "restart adb"

In the end (a few hours later), after some reboots and tricks, such as ADB, I managed to recognize my device

Just install the USB driver for Nexus 7 on your PC and try updating the hardware changes for the device in the device manager.
