I use a Mac w/Tiger and just loaded some pics onto this digital picture frame. I originally tried connecting the picture frame to the Mac using the supplied USB cable. Whilst this shows up OK on the desktop, dragging and dropping jpeg images into the folder simply didn't work. Eeventually I deleted everything, copied a bundle of jpegs onto a memory card and stuck that into one of the slots on the underside of the picture frame. I then copied them into the picture frame's internal memory. Bizarrely, it copied one blank photo for every photo it transferred. This wasn't a major drama as it is possible to manually select each blank picture and then delete them all in one go. So if you download 100 pics, you won't have to manually delete 100 blank pics in turn. Compared to Tiger / Leopard, the interface on the picture frame is clunky, but once you get the hang of it, it's bearable. The great news with this model is that you can select the pics to appear as often as every five secs, or as slow as every 24 hours, and you can select it to go to sleep at certain times of the day and night. So fear not, your Mac husband is sure to like the gift: just don't expect the images to be as sharp as on a Mac or iPod.

Is it a surprise that they don't (and won't) support Macs. I have both Mac and PC computers, because there just are not Mac owners out there to justify a company doubling their software budget to support both platforms. I use this on my PC and it is worth its weight in gold

Just tried it on Yosemite with the latest (2015-06-03) from here: http://www.displaylink.com/downloads/mac_downloads.php and it's working fine. Still need to connect to Windows to adjust brightness, no auto-rotate. But it works really well and looks great.

I ordered this for Mac OS 10.4.8 before reading these messages. Is anyone using it on a Mac? Does it use a Logitech or third-party driver as mentioned above?

I would also like to know if this works on a Mac. In general, I am finding that it is possible to buy electronic items on Amazon that are completely incompatible with OSX and no where do you even see that mentioned. A simple "System Requirement" category would suffice.

It is problematic on a Mac - Mac OSX 10.6 - quite a struggle for me to get it to work. Have not yet set up fax.One mountain at a time. It is somewhat "gelded" from the Windows features. Not all are available to the Mac user. Sure wish Canon would just come out and clearly (and up front) explain that. Buyer beware is still a caveat to to remember.Scanning one sided page at the breakneck speed of about 35 seconds per page. Slow as molasses on a winter's day. Each page was skewed. The "grabber" must not be in sync.Less and less pleased with this unit. It is problematic on a Mac - Mac OSX 10.6 - quite a struggle for me to get it to work.

I ran the software in a Windows VM on Mac OSX. It's been a while since I set it up, but I probably did it that way because there was no OSX version. Hope this helps.

Sorry, I have a Mac and they state that it only works with Windows. Hope someone else can help.

I don't use video and the FZ35 forum isn't getting much attention, now that it is discontinued. Try searching through the discussions on this forum site. This question has been asked and answered several times. I think the same procedure applies to the FZ28, FZ35 and the FZ40 regarding Mac.

This product works beautifully with my Mac (2012 Mini running 10.8.5.) Oddly it didn't work for me when I first tried to use it and I don't know why that is. It could have been a bug that was fixed when I upgraded from 10.8.3 to 10.8.5. I think you will like the product, it is working really well for me now.

I have a MacBook - Mac OSX 10.7.5, and it works very, very well for me. I've really enjoyed using it. I would think it would be the same for you.

I have no experience using this with a MAC, you could contact PC magazine, they might have a review on this.

I haven't been able to get it to work with OS X El Capitan 10.11.2. It or the micro sd card doesn't show up on the desk top and I've set it up, , formatted the micro sd card, calibrated it, scanned and it doesn't seem to work worth a diddley. I not to happy about wasting $52 as it stands. Anybody else with a Mac have this problem?

It does not work correctly with dual screen configuration on mac os 10.9, e.g. a laptop with an external screen in which case dialog windows from the capture software display outside of the accessible window space. Canon has known about this several months and not fixed it.

I just tried the same, and found that it actually does work. I had iMovie '08 running "in background" when I plugged in the card reader USB stick. iMovie popped up the import dialog without any additional action from my side. Works nicely. This is why I like the Mac :)
