does the burner come with software for a mac to allow me to burn a disc from my computer?

No, but they give you a free link to get it from them so you can get the software no problem for no extra charge.

Hi Harvo, The DIGISTOR drive doesn't come with software for Mac that allows regular disc file burning. The Mac software that it comes with is called REWIND and it is built for creating a personal archive of files you want to archive to Blu-ray disc. If you'd like to burn regular Blu-ray disc files to disc, you will need additional software like Toast, which is not included in the package.Thanks,The DIGISTOR Support Teamwww.digistor.com/support

Apologies Harvo for the lateness of my reply. I have been off work and don't touch emails during that time but I can confirm it does have a CD containing "Toast" software for Apple Mac burning. Hope this helps.Thomas.

I didn't get any. Windows 7 and 8 have built in burning capability. If I need to make an image or copy a disc, I use an old copy of Nero that came with one of my other burners.

It comes with two discs. One for Mac and one for Windows and I have installed both on my computers but beyond that I don't know.

This is just the divice; it does not come with the software; that has to be downloaded for your specific operating system. There is more than one choice for the software, (more that one brand name). It is tricky to work correctly on a MAC for Blu-ray, but DVDs work much better. Almost all software available will play DVD an CD on this drive.Apple does not have a business interest supporting external drives like blu-ray, since most of its software, applications, entertainment, are available through iTunes. very respectfully, Curtthom@cox.net, Frankfurt, Germany

I do not know if there is apple software for this or not. I only have Windows computers.However I have mentioned in several of my posts that I could not recommend this product as I had to return all of mine because they were constantly jamming.Very slow to find a disc. Just overall not worth the money. But that is your choice.

i have a windows 7 laptop, so i really don't know! I read the system requirements for the external burner/player in the owners manual and the system requirements are as follows: 2 usb 2.0 interface ports (only 1 port required if using the ac adapter) windows 2000/xp or windows vista! I have windows 7 and it worked! my sugestion would be to call mac to see if a product like the one your looking at is compatible with Mac- or just contact the store where you bought your computer and ask for assistance from someone in computers and maybe they could also give you an answer! Good luck.

Mine was just delivered. I haven't tried it with an actual disc yet but my Mac was able to quickly identify the device with no software needed.

Hi Ronni, yes it does, mentioned outside the retail box as well as on the included MAC CD.

My son has one that he got used, and he says that yes, it does. It has a disc drive on the right hand side, and this computer came with disc burning preinstalled, and he says to use windows media player or a similar application to do the job.

Yes, I burned videos with the drive in my iMac. Keep in mind that format and size (MB's) are factors.

I would expect that you could install and burn a disc but I have not done as yet so don't know for sure. Sorry can not be more help.

Yes the software is built in on a separate folder or drive if you have a Mac.

Hello,The iMac you are referring to does have a CD/DVD Player. It will also burn CD's but it will not burn DVD's. Thanks,NathanBetamacs

This means that you must have already installed "burning software" to handle whatever iso or other video/audio files that you need to "burn" onto the Pawtec. There are lots of choices for PC, not so many for Mac. A free PC software/convertor program is "Freemake". This you can get directly from a CNET download. It will even work to make BD files now. Other choices abound. For iMac Mavericks I use Leawo's software. It can be tried for free, and the cost is $39,00 for a one-year license ($59,00 for lifetime). For Macs, you might also consider Toast (check for latest version). I can say that the Blu-Ray quality from Leawo is excellent, with "burn" fairly quick "burn" times on 25G BD-R or 50G BD-RE disks.

My unit came with one disc that works on windows and Mac by ArcSoft MediaImpression 2 the instruction booklet gave info of who and where to contact for support.

A lot of burners can do it but not likely one on a mac, I know the LG Brand has many models that burn them if the mac has an LG burner then maybe, LG sent me a list when I inquired about them, some burners just need a firmware update. The blueray version of that disk is released in August I think.

It comes with a DVD-RW drive which means it will burn and read both DVD's and CD's. However, it does not come with burner software. I suggest the free version of Burnaware: www.burnaware.com.
