Wildgame Innovations & MacBook Pro

Three Questions:

1. Anyone have any success getting photos on the SD card in a Wildgame Innovations Trail Camera and onto a Mac Book Pro?

2. I noticed on Wildgame Innovations web site all the drivers for their trail cameras are Windows based.

3. Are there any trail camera that can handle Apple OS?

Do you have any issues loading images from other cards where you captured digital images. Know nothing about mac's but would tend to think it may be a driver issue with your card reader or possible issue with your computer if that is the case.

Have you tried formatting the cards on your computer? Do you have any other device you can try to capture images on on those cards to try on your computer? Maybe try writing an image/images to the cards from your computer and see if it will read them back.

it's very odd... it shouldn't matter. stick the brand new card in with nothing on it and unformatted. it should save the pictures as a normal picture file as long as the card is in it and pressed in all the way. get a SD reader compatible with your mac and not just windows or if you have a SD slot on your macbook fine. try to access the card and don't format or scan it or anything like that. i can take the card straight out of my cameras and put it right into my Kodak digital camera and review the pictures. i haven't used a mac in a while, but something had to be up. i've used about 8 WGI cams now and not had issues with them not accepting the cards or not being able to read them.

one other thing the card isn't a higher capacity than what the cam is rated for is it?

....edit for another thing....you should only need a compatible driver for a mac if you plan on plugging the camera straight into your mac.
