Port not found on upload

my Linux Box has a newer esptool
my Mac has 4.5, can not find who to bring it to 4.9
my platform io is up to date.
Any hint ?

Kind Regards

Your Platform is not up to date. If it would use esptool.py v4.9

platform = espressif32 @ ^6.12.0

Thank you for all your help, did the update as you suggested.
but no I get compile errors.

What??? What version did you use before 6.12.0?

do not remember sorry, but it seam I got a 4.7 version of esptool.py, not the 4.9.
the error seam to have to do with esptool
