As the title says ADB won't work on this mac, when I look at adb devices nothing comes up. I've tried to reinstall SDK and it resulted in it not even working. I've changed adb_usb.ini in order for it to work and that didn't work. I have ADB on, on my tablet and everything is in place but no results.
Help may be here:

My Kindle Fire HD is rooted.
Was it ever working? Because the link I gave you is for root, but it also tells you how to connect adb on a mac.

It only worked on Ubuntu but my laptop broke so I'm left with a mac. I'll try the link you gave me.
[Edit]
I doesn't work and no commands are working anymore.
It's giving me either -bash: ./adb: No such file or directory
or whatever else. Everything isn't working at all.

Then you may want to check again, because "-bash: ./adb: No such file or directory" quite clearly means that the filename "adb" was not in the current directory (./) from which you ran the command. There's simply no other way to interpret it.

I used psneuter for the root method inside s1c (should be default). I heard prior to using s1c that gingerbreak wasn't working on this phone.
Well after breaking the command prompt on my laptop(vista...) I got it on my old desktop. Problem was computer sucked. So if anyone has a crappy computer. When it freezes. On your phone endebug. Wait about twenty seconds. It'll freeze again. Debug it. It'll freeze again. Undebug again. Itll process about half of the information. Then this time it wont freeze but it'll wait for you to debug it again. Then it'll install superuser and test it. So Gingerbreak. Freeze. Undebug. Freeze. Debug. Freeze. Undebug. Ask for root. Debug.
Hey not everyone has good computers now

The original was not a real zip, it's a rar. Rename it to .rar and open it with 7-zip. If not, re-download it. Preferably here: http://shortfuse.org/?page_id=2. Supposedly that one's a bonafied zip.

Yeah, this is the complete set of drivers for this device (nothing omitted). It will go through the process of setting up the drivers one more time, and then never again (it should find everything).
Ok so I used the drivers from that page and when I use S1C it gets to running psnsuter (or gingerbreak both do the same thing) it never gets any further.. I even waited like 15mins.. I have usb debug on and internet connection mode. I tried the manual adv method and when I run the. rage command in adb shell adb restarts but my phone never shows back online doing the adb devices command... I am at a loss.... have used both win 7 and win XP.

You'll also want to perform the steps outline in this post to update to the unofficial 1.3.1 that fixes the repartitioning issue. Just keep an eye on which directory you're in as I think Adam threw in one too many "cd .."

Doesn't matter where the files are when they get installed.
Sounds like it didn't install. If you rerun the .deb files does software manager ask you to reinstall?

Well it has the option to reinstall, if I right click and open with software center. It does show installedbut if I try to run , nothing happens.
First thanks to the guys helping with this in a thread that was started for another problem.
But, I still can't get adb to work. I've installed jre,jdk, and sdk with a lot of packages ( all from the Android repo and a couple from the 3rd party one). My problem isn't having the right software. My problem is I don't know how to you're out the file path in Ubuntu. On my windows position, I know that it's C:/adb. But I don't know how to type my file location in Linux. Right now, the Android-sdk-linux_x86 folder is in my home folder. I can navigate there by pointing and clicking, but how do I type that in my terminal?
Cd /home/android adb location
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Someone with more Linux experience will probably correct me, but I believe it's:
cd /home/(your username)/adb
(bulletproof caught the CD thing)
And/or you can add that to your path...or you can move adb to something like /usr/bin...

As bulletproof said, you can add it to your path, which if you're going to be using it a lot is the best solution. Then you could type adb from anywhere you are and it would work. Otherwise, you cd ~/Android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools, then the first time you run it do sudo ./adb start-server. From there on, you can just do ./adb insertcommandhere if you don't add it to your path. If you do add it to your path, you don't need the ./
ok, tried that, and i keep getting no such file or directory.

rename your SDK folder
keep it simple. i just name mine sdk in my home directory

i want to point you to a thread that i have been pushing a lot lately. it is how to setup and configure your ubuntu machine to compile CM7. it is oriented to htc devices, and more specifically the Desire Z/G2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915435
the key part to read and comprehend is the part where you configure your ADB. you dont HAVE to do all the other stuff, but its all good info to have for the future.
its not as complicated as you are making it out to be, you just need to take the few extra minutes to understand it.
~ represents your home folder
cd ~/sdk/platform-tools
takes me to my adb executable, although by following the guide i mentioned above, i can run adb commands from anywhere within my OS, and i dont have to use sudo.
That no such directory IS due to there being spaces in the file path

Well to get a long story short,im not a complete noob in the rooting,optimising,flashing bussiness.
So dont tell me flash this kernel or this stock rom,or this or that.
The problem after hours of searching is a bad app.
I have bought over 500 apps cause i want to support the community.
So,when i restore all my apps,when the phone starts,after the home screen loads AT THE MOMENT WHERE IN TOUCHWIZ OR ADW OR WHATEVER THE APPS ARE FINALLY LOADED
REBOOT,hot reboot most of the times...
I tried everything...startup managers to block everything and i mean everything...
Rescan media root app to stop scanning of sdcard...
Everything,no matter if it froyo,ginger,ics,stock,rooted or WHATEVER.
Of course i can install one app at a time an reboot,to see what happens but that will take ages and also maybe one app 'hit' with another...
So help me find the bad app...
I am no noob but i am no pro either...
So how do i take a logcat? Will that help either way?
Do i have to use adb?
help....
You are kidding right? You have 500 apps installed at the same time? Why on Earth? I think you are lucky the phone even tries to boot...
On to your problem at hand - no one here will be able to help you with the info you provided.
I thought their was like a 30 app limit to android?
Adb is your best bet.

Well you certainly need apps 2 SD ... but you probably already have that.
To use adb, download it firstly. Its in the Google developer tools.
Once downloaded open terminal. Alt+ctrl+t. Use CD to change to the directory that contains adb in the platform tools. Once your in the folder containing adb, type "./adb logcat" without the quotes. This is for a computer running Ubuntu Linux also

i have set adb succesfully and i see the logcat on my cmd window running like hell most of the time.
i read that you can use some commands like -w -e etc to narrow the results to important messages? is that correct?

Unfortunately I have very little adb experience...
Maybe try something like the same command you used
"./adb logcat"
I guess going by what you're saying you could try something like
"./adb logcat -w" try that then maybe replace the w with e..
Keep in mind these are just guesses because I do not know for certain

Another way would be using ddms - connect your phone in debug and run ddms (it's included in the SDK Tools). It provides an interface to browse your device's logs and filter them according to your needs. I think you'll be able to locate that one which explains why your phone is crashing.
On second thought however - is it possible for you to turn the debug on?

thank you!
great idea,i will test it
yes,i can turn the debug on,because the phone crashes just when all the apps are loaded in the drawer.
it must be a bad app because i used to have many apps since froyo times and no problem.
like 500...and the phone was fast.
i really want to find that bad app and kill it
edit
================================
wow,ddms is a dream! thats what i was looking for!!!
thank you
Sorry for the double post but i thought it needed a single post.
Well,the problem is fixed with the help of you guys!!!
I was getting a hell lot of warnings about watchdog_n and stuff.
I googled it and appeared that a whole bunch of people had the same problem especially with nexus s etc.
They said it was due to some crappy app wanting to auto-sync.
So i did a wipe cache,wipe dalvik cache,fix fc and then when the phone rebooted i disabled the auto-sync.
Guess what,no more loops and soft reboots!!!
I still dont know what app is causing all the problems and propably never will,if you thing that the same apps in my tablet dont cause a thing,but after the auto-sync off the problem is gone.
Good thing though i dont need auto-sync cause its not the best solution...
It apears that I was messing around in stuff I shouldn't have been. I was in the /system folder and I renamed "system ui" by mistake. Now my kindle won't go past the lock screen. When I unlock it just black. How do I go about to fix this problem?
