How To Use A Mac To View Si Recordings?

**Dawgmanx2** · 11-02-2009, 08:39 AM

Is anybody using a Mac computer to playback SI recordings? I have been on different sites and I still haven't found a way to do this. It sucks to have this technology and unable to use it the way you want. Please share what you do in simple detail. This dummy needs help!

Thanks;

Barry

Having the same issue. Can't even do the updates with my mac. From what I've found humminbird is pc only.

I hate to say it but you may have to use bootcamp on your mac to run a windows version. Not sure what mac your running but all newer macs will run windows. try and get hold of a windows xp. when your done viewing go mac to running the mac os

That's the only problem. I'm running snow leopard. I hate windows and I'm sure as heck not tainting my mac with any microsoft software. I'll just use my pc and for my si and keep my fingers crossed they come out with mac programs for the si

I have xp installed and tried to view through humviewer, a window comes up asking which window program to use or something like that and none have worked. But, I don't know squat about this stuff on the computer. Just a dummy trying to learn. lol

look for linux software that will display/play the SI content. The recent MAC OS is just a modified version of free BSD or one of the other variants of Linux. Regardless linux compatible software will run on MAC.

Where can I find the linux software at?

Buy a cheap PC. Mac is ONLY good for graphic editing programs, useless for everything else.
