Does it work with a Mac? Also, what recording program do you recommend?

I'm sure it will. It connects via USB and should install fine. Also, I use Fruit Loops Studio 10, it's alittle tricky to get used to, but it does the job for me, but to recommend something to you is based on what you want to use it for (DJing, making music, etc), Garage Band should be sufficient enough though :)

Yes, it works with a Mac (that's what I use). You can use whatever program you want. I use garage band and have had no issues.

I don't own a mac, so I'm not sure. I use this with Sony Acid Music studio program.

I would assume so as it comes with software for both Mac and Windows. Why bother though record to a CD then rip to Itunes. I am no techie on these things but much easier.

It works very well with my PC. I have not tried it on a mac. Doesn't the online description have that info?

If you are a Mac user, please do not purchase this device. You will be sorry. They have not been updating the drivers for the Mac, and their own forum will give you plenty of rants. It is an interface to a computer, not a recorder. It will work with Soundflower, sort of. The preamps are very poor. So you may have to buy an external amp if you intend on recording a passive guitar through it. I did this and then it worked. It will do multi tracks as noted by the other reviews. However, I was never able to get the Avid software to properly work. It was a very annoying process so I would not purchase this device for that.

I am reasonably sure this will work fine on your mac because they are bias toward mac. I use audition and sound forge and get stellar recordings for our work. It's the playback through the unit that is the problem so we have graduated to a motu audio express . A bit more money but a lot more performance. Buy it through amazon and try it. If you have problems send it back.

I do not own a Mac so I cannot promise anything, but the camcorder did come with a Digital Video Solutions Disk for Macinstosh so I would assume it must work with Macs since it comes with a Mac CD.

Agreed, which is it, "yes" or "no"? The description says it works with Mac, though one must also DL Audacity, which is a free APP.

I don't have MAC so I can not tell from experience. You would have to install software Audacity (check: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/). On its website it says they have MAC version.

As to whether Flip video recorders work with mac, have no fear. Everything works fine on my Mac. Even the FlipShare movie editing software works fine (contrary to early test reports) My only gripe is that the newest update to the FlipShare software doesn't work on my legacy PowerPC chip Macintosh. You must have the newer Intel processor Macintosh to use the latest and greatest Flip software.

Yes, I've been using it with my MacBook Pro. However, I did not use the software (disk) that came with it. (Small disc. Not compatible with Mac.) I use a program called Audacity, that I downloaded from the internet.

Subject: Re: Y. Callewaert commented on your answer to the question "Being a Mac user, will this camera work with my Mac and iMovie program?"if you want a sample from the camera, you can go to facebook's Hot SpringsJazz Society and look at the u-tube videos of our Vocal-Rama event .... all6 or so of the u=tubes were taken by the camera and attached mic. Theacoustics in the Garvan Gardens Chapel aren't the best, but I thought thesounds came through reasonably well....Dave

I have it, I bought it because I remember reading something about it working with a mac but i tried it today and it doesn't work and i have a new macbook pro. i tried to copy an old vhs tape and the mac didn't recognize it and either did imovie or roxio.

I don't have a Mac but I assume it should work just fine with a Mac. Great camera.

I'm not a Mac user. But for the price, try it. If it doesn't work, sell it to a friend with a Microsoft computer. I love the way this thing works. I especially like that I can covertly record conversations. I had a bad boss and would put this thing in my pocket and record our conversations in case I ever needed to defend or prove myself. The boss is gone now so I use it mostly for file storage.

Hi. This is a USB device. Search in Google to see if there is any software that runs on MAC. This specific unit came with a software for Windows/PC version.ThanksJanio

Yes it does, I have used it with Reason, and Audacity on Windows 7 and GarageBand on OS X for Mac. This is an awesome microphone that is well underpriced.. But I don't ever see that being a problem for the consumer. ;)
