I downloaded their driver, etc from the canon site online and didn't install the software from a cd - maybe you could do that instead of trying to work with a cd - I have a mac mini and they work well together.

More info is necessary to properly answer your question. Remember that this software only installs in Windows, not Mac OS. What operating system are you using? Does another CD/DVD function when inserted into the drive? If no, then you need to return the drive. Other than that, if the disc itself is bad, call Cyberlink Support to see if they can help you download the software, keeping in mind that the current versions of the software are newer than that on the CD inside the box with the drive. I hope this helps.

Yes. My new Mac didn't even come with a disc drive. I downloaded everything from the website. Forewarned, it's a bit confusing as to what to download.

I have yet to get it to work on my MacBook Pro but some of that may be my own error. Apple just sent out an OS upgrade called OS X which is listed on the label of the Zoombinis box. Before this upgrade when I would put the disc in the drive it would show up on Finder with the circle and slash of something now allowed or not supported by the OS. Now I get the symbols clearly but still haven't managed to get it to run. Like I said, that may be my fault, I'm still learning how to use Mac rather than PC.

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

I own a Macbook Air and installed it with my USB connected disc drive from Amazon without any issues. It runs fine on there, but I would recommend keeping the charger plugged in all the time as it drains the battery quickly.

Mine didn't come with an Installation CD. My OS is Windows XP Pro. It was just Plug and Play...literally. I'm very pleased with it though. I'd suggest this to anyone.

Tom: I was not able to install the disk like any conventional software,---but some how I was linked to a "free" download of Flt Sim X.Not enough time for trying it out, or instructions tp enter the product key to make it legal. Just been too busy with other things.

It is my understand you can install this version on a mac with an intel chipset however, from what I understand you need to get an extra program to help with the install. Dont recall the name off hand

Most of this era iMac's have a special SuperDrive. It mounts about 1/2" further back than a normal drive. If you substitute a MacBook Drive for one of these, you will not be able to push the CD/DVD far enough into the drive, to allow the mechanism to grab the disk and pull it into the drive. I do not suggest you use this drive. Use the Profile Manager to get the part number of the installed drive, and get that exact one.

At least in my case, although I have MAC as well, the device came with an installation disk for windows only. I used on Windows. PS: Extremely happy with the easy of use and performance in windows.

Hey, I found really good instructions online.. It's already formatted in fat32 but it needs to be set up on a laptop first.. After you do the setup you just plug and play. It's been a great storage device so far.. Feel free to get back to me.. Oh yeah, it was on ehow.

Hi Shiki, This is very helpful. Is it easy to partition the drive? I just ordered this so I don't have the drive yet, but when it comes I'd like to back up both my Mac and PC... Do you know where to find information on how to partition? Thank you!

The directions DO NOT include installing on a MAC. Sorry for the delay in answering.

When I purchased mine it came with a CD. But it's better not to use it and instead go to the blackmagic website and download the latest software and drivers. Make sure you read and follow the install instructions as the install of the drivers can be a little tricky. Don't plug the USB in until after you install the drivers and software or it will cause problems.

Mark thanks for saying that you hadn't tried it, cause I was feeling really stupid that I had not put an audio in mine either. The kids' music is all on iPod and hard drive (streamed, when it works...). I hardly get to play all my CDs any more and after all this $$ just spent, I think I deserve it. Maybe I will just burn a bunch of Blu-rays of the CDs now that they came out with a burner/sw to do so on the Mac. Spending $ as fast as I earn it, but what is money for? Oh yeah, college...
