I already discussed this with you in another thread
Yes, trouble certainly software, on linux and windows all seems ok, but on Mac looks like a trouble with libusb with closing/resetting device on Darwin: when application tries gracefully close lime mini, it get errors from libusb

I found an issue on GitHub https://github.com/libusb/libusb/issues/455, but this commit (https://github.com/jiez/libusb/commit/8483de433e60b7771298b03deaec95c5e80551dc) breaks communication with LimeMini at all.
