You are correct. It doesn't I have tried at least 30 times. I am returning mine.

It works with both windows 7 and mac if you just read the manual and load the windows 7 driver. I use windows 7 at work and mac at home and have two of these cameras, both of which work with both computers. I will acknowledge that it is more consistent with the MAC than windows 7 but it does work with both.

I use Windows' MovieMaker Converted into the WMV format. Which I can bring into Apple using Flip. Hope this helps

iSkysoft also has a file converter than will convert these avi to .mov. With the latest QT update, I guess they view avi as an antiquated format so don't support it. A workaround is loading QT 7 which will still play the files but make sure you also have flip mac and get a Divx codec while your'e at it. The setout tool is only available for PC which makes no sense to me whatsoever but all in all a great little camera once you get past all the pain in the butt conversion issue.s

Look for the "808 #26 setout tool" online. They forgot to include it with the keychain. There's a review website that should have it and also details the operation. Can't remember it offhand, though.

Not sure of your problem. I have a mac and win 7 and it works. Instead of using the cam and the USB cord, try using the SD card directly into the computer.

I'm having the same problem and I'm still waiting for Amazon to give me an answer. After some research I found out to use the Amazon software downloader you have to have Windows on your computer, which Mac users don't have. So that is probably the problem. I've asked Amazon for a refund since Windows was not one of the requirements listed when I purchased the software. I'm still waiting to hear back from Amazon.

Try on another computer system, to see if you can get it working there. This can rule in or out an issue with your MAC.

It is not compatible. I checked the back of the box and it specifies Windows, and says nothing about Mac.

The software is only compatible until Win XP, it won't work with your Macbooks. You can do a manual setup instead, this link should help you: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=0ff4c94586a345d082828ec2161aaecf_3686.xml&pid=80&respid=0&snid=1&dispid=0&cpage=search.

I had problems with it on both win 7 and 8. Tur ns out the firmware in it is not that great. If you use a newer hdd it should work but older hdd do not work. The one I had a probkem with was a toshiba 80 gig.

The software seems to work better with windows. I tried using my Mac and I ran into the same issue.

Try contacting the manufacturer. I'm running it on Windows 7 and it works fine.

I have not been able to make it work with my Mac so far. Works well with Win 7.

I don't know. I don't do Windows, but I do use Macs and it works with Macs. I'm primarily a Linux guy, and the thumb drive works perfectly between a laptop running Fedora 17 and a Windows 7 box that I used in an internet cafe

Premsysl B., I'm having the same exact issues. It worked the first time I plugged it in but the system won't allow me to access and files on a blue-ray disk any longer. There seems to be no driver available for it to match Win 8. I used it several times in Win 7 and now that system won't recognize it either. I'm thinking the unit has a flaw of some kind. Too bad Rosewill, Samsung, or Panasonic (all attached to this make) won't post a fix.

I'm using Windows 7, 64 bit and was able to get it to work. It's not hooked up now so I can't give you any further help, sorry.

You have to get the firmware online and connect the special cord to the back of the it, then the other side to the computer. It should be a mini usb or something like that.

I use Mac and I didn't have a problem. There is an additional download of NTFS on the Seagate support sight that might help but I didn't need it. I plugged it in and didn't have to turn it on for my computer to recognize it. There is a factory reset button on the bottom which you might try. If the unit doesn't power on it even when it's disconnected, it may be bad from the factory.
