mac compatibility: Will it operate on its own, without a computer link?
2033727
Hello- Macs here as well. The Mio C520 will operate out of the box, without any downloads required. Although I have not yet tried it, I would assume the included DVD would fail to install any programs on my Mac, but I'd wager the comprehensive owner's manual PDF would open and be viewable... at least this was the case with a Navigon unit (windows only as well) I've since returned. Where I expect to run into difficulties will be when I want to update maps, POI's, or download and install a traffic subscription- basically anything that will require a connection via USB cable from my Mac to the C520... that won't work. The way I think of it, the Mio is great for the money, and honestly, how often do I need to update maps and such?... it has the latest '07 TeleAtlas, so I would assume I'm covered for several years at least... and when I need to update something, I suppose I'll just bring my C520 into work and do it there (on a PC). According to the Mio people it's a quick download, and the program is easily erased from a desktop...

It works with the Mac OS right out of the box. It also can be reformatted via Disk Utility.

I use it Windows XP, with an inventory/sales program and also a library cataloging program. Plugs into the USB port, and you're good to go. We do not have any Macs at work, do not know compatibility.

see the following link of a customer using the Everio line with a Mac. No problems.

You may download an installation program on their website, on support area. There is a driver for mac.

It doesn't require a computer period, so pretty sure it won't be a problem if you are using a Mac

I'm not tech savy at all. If you have used a PC I.e managed a PC cleaned it up, set it up maintained it. You will be just fine on a Mac. It's very straight forward in my opinion

I can not speak to Mac installation, as I hooked mine up to a PC. However, with my PC, there was no software installation at all. I simple connected it to the PC and I was off an running. I imagine the same would be true for your Mac.

I am strictly a PC man, but it should easily be plug and play, it worked fine for me. Form what I understand newer OS' for MAC's should pick it up.

It is very doubtful, as i have problems using it with Mac O/S 6.8.1 I suggest you find and us a much later version of I-Work. (ivanwaite@mail.com) .

Yes, you get a disk with drivers on it, and there are Mac OS drivers included: OSv10.6, OS X Lion, OS XMountain Lion v12.27. There ought to be one driver there that works for your MAC. If Mac is plug'n'play, you shouldn't have a problem!

Yes it is entirely compatible with Macs. I am going to assume you are thinking in the way of auto mount on boot or something like this in which case the best way to do this is to build a simple automator apple script using the ip address or the NAS and making the automator script open on boot.
