what do i need to make sense of the text in extracted file? the file itself has no file ending, should i add one to be able to make the changes?
Hey @vantablack
You should not try to make any sense of the file or open it in an editor. It is binary, not meant for human consumption.
To extract the 64-bit portion, just run the indicated command in terminal:
sudo ditto --arch x86_64 ~/Desktop/ElektronOverbridge /Library/Extensions/ElektronOverbridge.kext/Contents/MacOS/ElektronOverbridge
This should ask for your administrator password.
Obviously the success of this command is dependent on you having run the previous command in my instructions.

All Terminal codes given do the job for you. You donāt have to actually add an extension to the file to kind of accessing to a text file. Type Terminal code thatās it you have each time an action : do that on that file and copy it next to that pathā¦ The full FIX from @esperdiv is here (i only suggest than as we have an uninstaller and over bridge we donāt so much need to backup the original kext which is entirely up to meā¦ BUT IāM WRONG THERE WE NEED TO APPLY THE FULL PROCEDURE)
(all happen in the Mac Terminal app found in utility)
Open the Terminal app.
(so what he suggest is to backup the kext file first from the original path to the path who lead to the desktop but actually this action copy-paste in the terminal execute the code and DO THAT action you will see the copied backup file on the desktop)
sudo cp -a /Library/Extensions/ElektronOverbridge.kext/Contents/MacOS/ElektronOverbridge ~/Desktop/
(then the code will extract the 64-bit portion of the kernel extension and copy back to the path where the kern files of the OB driver reside in extension system folder)
sudo ditto --arch x86_64 ~/Desktop/ElektronOverbridge /Library/Extensions/ElektronOverbridge.kext/Contents/MacOS/ElektronOverbridge
Dont worry about what it does type exactly as is in the Terminal and Let go OB working then
Yes you right i forget path linked of the first one my advise couldnāt work soā¦ my BAD ā¦

@Signal75 as @esperdiv make me notice the full procedure is requiredā¦ so i guess as itās work you already done the full procedure. If not uninstall, reinstall OB, do the full procedure. If you have problem do the full procedure. If you have done the full one no action is required just enjoy !
Itās not my fix as such. Just cross-posted from the Access forum, since someone there came up with a similar fix for Virus TI.

Hi,
I tried the procedure above several times (after reinstalling OB and several Reboots) but no luck here (with 10.12.1). Overbridge doesnt show up any usb devices in the control panel. Also the OB-Plugin cant see any of the devices. I did this on my second mac so Ill wait with the update to sierra on my production mac until the next ob version comes along.
btw: If youre using an RME Interface, try the new usb driver 2.19 on sierra, it uses the optimized usb stack of sierra and has a better latency.
Strange you canāt get this running if you done the full procedure + tried to reinstall OB 
Anyway waiting for the proper OB update is also niceā¦ it will probably get enhanced i guess
maybe its because i updated to sierra and didnt do a clean install of sierra. But that would be a hassle, as I would have to reinstall every program and I dont wanna do that,
Cheers
I done exactly the same. At first not workingā¦ so i uninstall OB, done the full procedure wich is open terminal type 2 different actions validate with admin password. Reboot. Working. 
I updated to Sierra from El Capitan. Thatās not the issue.
Probably just needs an uninstall, reboot, re-install and potential reboot again at that point (for maximum reboot safety).

So we are a few days on from discovering this solution. What has your experience been, is it still working OK? Any issues?
Has anyone tried Logic Pro X using This solution for Sierra? Im interested to know if Overbridge performance with LPX has improved with Sierra as the OS?
Itās been fine. As Iāve previously said, I get the full number of channels with Sierra.

niceone! the trick worked fine with my setup: macOS sierra + AR+A4+OB with the latest updates.
how is it when the official update comes for OB? deleting OB and fresh install? whats happening with the total recall files in that case? i directly started working and already have 2 tracks in progress i definatly dont wanna lose 
Think Iāve got this working - thanks for the updates and typing up step by step that allowed me (a mac newbie) to literally cut & paste this in Terminal.

Curious, does Overbridge/Logic work for you in El Capitan?
