Yes, even though the I did not use the included software. Just plugged the sd card into my MBP. I find that it's easier than using the usb cable and plugging the camera into my MBP. Used iPhoto, and several other programs with this camera. I was put off at first at the 'plastic' feel and build, but this is a great camera period.

I use a Mac and the software works fine for me. It is not the end all in software but for what I needed it was fine.

No it is not compatible with any Mac products. Requires software loaded on a PC to use.

Don't need any software at all for Mac.. works very well with Photo Booth. Try it.

I'm using a Windows P.C. Not sure about using a Mac. I would contact Canon for more details. The software (Pixela) that came with my videocam does require only Windows OS to operate.

Can,t comment on MAC compatibility of software. I use a PC and take the SD card out and plug it to download the JPG files. I like the features on this camera especially the panorama stitch of three. Highly recommended after I killed the predecessor with fine Australian dust.

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.

I use a MAC and there is no problem at all. The files that you put on your thumb drive are just PES files, doesn't matter what kind of operating system you are using to load them on. What you will want do do, if you are planing to purchase editing software, is find one that is truly MAC compatible. I use Embrilliance and I love it.

I can't answer that. I don't have a Mac or the software that came with the camera

Yes, I have this camera and download the photos on my Apple Powerbook all the time. Canon always does a great job of supporting mac users with its bundeled software. If you have iPhoto (which comes with every mac) you don;t need tyo load the Canon software. When you plug the cmaera into the USB port, OS X will recognize it and open up iPhoto where you can import, edit, resize, etc, the photos.

I believe that the software that comes with the camera has a "MAC" option for installation. The image files that are produced by this camera work in the "MAC" platform.

I believe I asked the same question when I upgraded, and I was told by Apple that, yes, it is compatible. However, I've not really used the programs since I upgraded. If you're on a MAC, I suggest you call Apple. I don't know who you'd call on a PC.

Absolutely-I have a Mac. It comes with a memory card, I just download the pictures from there.

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

Good question. I have just purchased the camera, because it has a short Mac section in the manual that seems to indicate that it is compatible. However, now that I've used it, i can't move the video to my Mac. Worthless!

I have only used it on a windows machine and checked the packaging and there is no mention of being mac compatible
