Any mac users? How easy/difficult would it be to see pics & video on a mac?

I have a Mac and the pics and video upload easily and the quality is great. I use iPhoto and iMovie.

It's super easy - just plug it in! We have one we got in August and it worked great on a Macbook Pro. We are so glad we got this instead of the GoPro. We took it snorkeling and scuba diving. The screen is a little small to see underwater and it can be difficult to know if you're on photo or video but all in all we were extremely pleased and would highly recommend it.

You shouldn't need any additional software for newer versions of MacOS. I suspect you won't need anything additional for Windows either, but I didn't have a Windows box nearby to test with. The camera also comes with a CD with software on it (I didn't try it).

I do not know much about Mac's, but I can tell you that this is just like downloading from your digital camera, with a USB on one end and the small connector on the other.

I've done a bit if video editing. It processes extremely fast! My previous Mac only had a 128mb graphics card, so it easily processes a video file 15-20 times faster.

It is a web page that you view in Safari on the Mac. You use this for setting up the cameras and for viewing the video. I mostly use the iPad/iPhone apps for viewing.

I plan on purchasing a Mac laptop. Am I going to have problems downloading pictures with any of the Mac/laptop versions??

Yes you can upload your video footage to a MAC if it has LION or above. I have to concure with others, extremely hard to fly, impossible for young kids.

I think so, I downloaded video to my PC, so I am pretty sure you can do the same thing to Mac

Works very well with a Mac computer. The camera is also easy as a Mac to use! The videos can be used in iMovie.

Yeah as long as your mac has USB, no problems at all. The software that comes with it, won't work. But software that comes with cameras is usually useless anyway

I've got a 2013 MBP with the latest OSX software. I have never tried using their software, but do you need to? If you connect the camera to the laptop (via USB), it acts as a hard drive and you can import the videos onto your laptop. Unless you need the software to perform something specific, it's not necessary.

Absolutely not if you are MAC user...not by yourself. However, I agree that there is good support by phone and you don't have to be savvy if you allow support to gain remote access to your computer. The reason that it is so difficult seems to be that the information, downloads and plug-ins are not organized for MAC. In my opinion, once the cameras are recognized by my computer/router and I try and follow through, it should not be directing me to "first install plug-ins before proceeding" and provide links that ONLY WORK FOR PC. This kind of thing keeps happening with Foscam. I got a great price for both of mine and I think it will work out soon though. Absolutely not if you are MAC user...not by yourself.

Although I have not tried to view on a Mac - Yes, the newest cameras I have ordered have software on the disk for both Windows and Mac versions.
