With your VR stream connected to your mac through USB try command +
shift + g. When the dialog comes up type /volumes enter. Then arrow up
and down and see if you find your stream.

I have a macbook that is a couple of years old. Anytime I have
connected my victor reader stream to the mac the stream was not
recognized at all and my mac completely locked up. Has there been a
change in compatibility? It's been a really really long time since
I tried the USB connection from the stream to the mac. I've just
always used the SD card reader since it's a lot faster anyways. The
only reason I had for connecting my stream to the mac was when I was
trying to authorize the stream for an audible account. Is this now
possible on a mac? I had to borrow a PC to authorize my stream on
Audible. Other than that I've never had to use a PC for
anything. :) I actually need to authorize my stream again for
audible since my SD card that had the audible files on it became
corrupt and I had to trash it.
The only other issue I've had was that I could not transfer the
notes (recorded items) to the mac and use them as I knew of no
software to use those files. However, with the soft pack upgrade
one can now record in mp3 or wav.
So, I love my stream and cannot imagine not having it and I have no
problems getting content on my stream via a card reader. So, it
works out great for me.

When I get on the mac, I'll forward you the Humanware announcement,
along with the link to their website.
The audible stuff downloads directly from my PC to my stream, but
haven't done this with the mac yet. The stream attaches to
computer via one of those camera-typed usb cables which comes with
it. It is one of the most awesome gadgets I've had the privelege
of owning, Next to the MBP, of course:)
I'll send that link.

Thanks so much! Does the new pack come as a zip file and how do I
get it from my computer to a stream?

softpack add on to listen to books from Audible or music from

that makes everything accessible.
