Will the cardscan personal v9 work with the Mac, specifically Maverick?

Not sure but double think about buying. I have used this for over20 years and loved it. Now that there is no support to use card scan backup, it is below average at best.

I just spoke with my IT guy and he said that it will work with Windows 7. We upgraded our systems from XP to Windows 7 and have had no complaints about the cardscans.

No, you need at least OS X 8.5. Mad Pro's been having trouble with USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt on their Mac Pro's. Their top tech support told me that only way for any card to work is to have latest OS. This of course causes problems fir you are running FCP 7 and other programs that will not work above Lion. Hope this helps, this is a good card, but you have to have latest OS 10. Like other's have said I'm not sure about the Mac Pro 1.1. I will say the Orico is a good company and I have had good relations with them, they are dedicated and will strive to serve you. They do not have driver for Mac that will work with less the OS x. No, you need at least OS X 8.5. Mad Pro's been having trouble with USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt on their Mac Pro's.

Unfortunately this does not appear to be compatible with my Mac version, 10.9.5 Mavericks. If it doesn't work in the host I've found it simple can't run on the VMs either. Under Bootcamp however, I've found it runs fine. If you have windows installed on your mac and then install VMWare you have to do a small trick with Workstation 9 to get USB 3.0 support as the Mac Pro literally has no USB 2.0 ports. Once you do that the Alfa works like a dream. I use Kali pretty regularly in VM and have never once used it native. It'll also happily run on something like Elementary OS as well. If your Mac has USB 2.0 then I imagine it's even easier so long as your running Windows.

I am using their latest driver 3.2.0 and it is listed as updated for 10.10 (Yosemite), but no update for 10.10.1 yet per their website, but I'm using the Quad with 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). Maverick was the big problem from the reviews I read. I hope that helps you.

I do not know. If you have the Mavericks OS (OS 10.9, I believe) it almost certainly will NOT work. My problems happened when I upgraded to Mavericks. ALL of my ExpressCards have been broken and NONE work. Your mileage may vary with another OS version....

I am running Maverick on my machine and using a Seagate Backup plus drive with 3 TB. The description specifically said that it was compatible with OSX 10.9.1.. Good luck.

Yes. That is what is written on the box under Operation System Specifications. Also got MAC version works well on my MAc

I am using this in my Mac Pro currently. You need to make sure your Mac can use this card though.

I'm unsure. I had windows 8 that crashed. I just bought a windows 7 laptop and I will see if cardscan will work with the new laptop.

I am using it under Mac OS 10.8.2. I don't see any reason that it wouldn't work with an earlier version. According to the manufacturer it will work. Either way the newer operating systems are generally the ones that are more problematic. For vuescan to work you will still need to install the drivers for the scanner

I used an msd card right out of the package and it worked fine, however, I do not know if Apple reformats the sd card. Your MacBook may have an option of reformatting in several different formats including the format the card was originally in. Experiment and check it out.

It works with my iMac and I recently upgraded to Maverick and it continues to function normally. Hope that helps.

this is a TOUGH question, the simple answer is NO as its missing OSX BIOS info so the MB wont install the drivers for it BUT you can re-flash with an apple aware bios and then yes OSX will detect and install drivers... as i understand its just not plug'n'play on OSX but you could email support at ATI (AMD) and ask for assistance and confirmation of the probably erroneous advice ive given or they may have a working bios for the card, or patch for OSX to get the apple ID anyway... good luck

Oh, I do apologize for the wrong information. Back then it looked like they were dropping the emu line completely, and even on the official forum Creative made it clear that they would put no more effort on the development of Mac drivers. But obviously they changed their mind along the line, and had made some progress. Looks like they have a driver work for Snow Leopard and Lion. But then Mavericks is around the corner now, and Creative still doesn't have a Mountain Lion driver, so I would think hard before purchasing this product at this moment.

This card works out of the box on Lion 10.7 and ML 10.8 in a Hackintosh. In an actual Mac Pro, I do not know. But I think the card would be detected and the drivers installed the same way. There is no need to download any drivers or install any drivers. The support for the card is built into the Apple OS.
