QuestionI plugged it into my Mac, popped in the disc that came with it. Now what? Instructions do not tell what file to click, and all files seem to be only for Windows.
Asked 6 years ago by Metalliknight.
- Answer I just had a similar problem. I went back to Best Buy and was told that as long as the computer is connected to the internet, one does not need the software CD at all. I tested this theory when I got home by inserting a music CD when I connected the device. Presto! the iMac now recognized the device and I transferred the music to my computer with no problem or difficulty. I haven't tried to burn a CD, or anything else, so I don't know if there will be a problem controlling that without the software CD, but my computer came with an application called "iDVD" so I'll have to investigate what that does.
