No!
The device drivers come from the manufacturer.
Not from google
You should check your manufacturer's website for your drivers.

R: [Q] android driver market
So, Google give to me the drivers for my android phone, doesn't it? Or do you say that if I search on Google may I find the drivers?
I don't know this things!
But do all devices need custom drivers because each android devices have differentiates hardware? ^^
But I want to try to explain better what I want to say:
Does exists a sort of market place where I can find the drivers for the device I want to connect to my android phone or tablet throw USB cable?

You will need to buy a copy of Windows and install it side by side with your Mac OSX via Bootcamp
Best option is to Google it, Apple have a lot of information on it (its very easy to do)
Parellels should work as well. Very similar to bootcamp, but it runs inside osx.

Not really as Bootcamp runs a Native version of Windows while Parelles is Emulation software

There has been some troubleshooting for drivers issues go to my FAQ tips and tricks which is stickied and scroll down to Drivers Issues. Most likely if you have installed drivers of other android devices will cause trouble, second do not install sdk use the adb drivers provided with any of the root methods.

I was able to root the nt but i had to go into the reg on my pc and clean it out before it let me. I generally wouldn't recomend it unless you're comfortible working in the windows registry.

I always recommended ccleaner for clean registries, temp files, etc its the best for windows and safe. I have never had any problems with it. Its perfect for clean your PC before start this kind of stuffs.

Looks cool but it must be connected to same network (192.168.1.xx)!
I dont really know if you want it to immediately install, but if you dont then use some cloud storage etc. Dropbox, Box, Google Drive and then download it to your phone. But if you want it to be immediately installed after you send it then I am afraid I cant help you.
I think the best way would be some kind ofvpn network way to remote control Your phone

I Will agree with the cloud storage options.
They are easy to set up and is flexible.

Yes! Omg. You guys lack the answer he wants! You log in to the play store on your computer, using the same info as on your phone. Then, find the app you want on your computer and click install. Choose your device, and bam. Done.

that is what i want! But i want to send any apk that way!
Well, if you could upload your apk to there, that would be the best way. You might have to design your own app, unless you can figure out a way to adb over the internet, then you could use adb push and adb install.
Other than that, you have to make your own api for it. And it would only work on rooted phones.

Not true.. Samsung is still supplying Apple with vital chips for their iDevices.. So I'd be careful, what I write.
Download Kies for Mac OS, and then install necessary drivers, then try to sync. If that does not work, there is an app, called AirDroid - Never had problems with it
Hope I could help!

Hi, you can check out SyncMate - it syncs data on Mac with Samsung Galaxy devices (contacts and calendars are synced for free, so you can test it and decide if it is something you were looking for).
Please, note that you will need to uninstall sync tools you have installed on Mac (kies, android sync tool) to ensure the correct work of SyncMate (in fact, if there are more than one sync tool installed, thay can conflict one with another, so my advice is to test each solution separately).
Syncmate +1
works flawlessly even on Custom ROMs. (I am on Syncmate free and CM9)

Thanks

Dude, I was having the same damn thing. I was hooking it up to my ACer W500 and it would not recognize it at all. It kept giving me a USB Error (port reset error) or some crap like that. I did a factory refreshm still no go. I went as far as reloading Windows and still no go... So I thought, let me hook it up through a UBS Hub and blam, it worked... Strangest ****! My SGS3 worked fine but the Note 2 wouldnt. I still havent figured it out but it worked through the hub... Give that a try,
I highly doubt you looked up the drivers. Theirs links all over this forum and believe it or not you can get them from SAMSUNGS website wow! If you can't even install drivers please don't root/unlock it.
