Sony is notorious for not being Mac-friendly. You won't be able to install that software since it's PC-only. iPhoto should work just fine and detect when your camera is attached so you can import your pictures and videos from it.

Corrected my reply - meant to say iPhoto. Open iPhoto when your camera is connected, if it doesn't automatically. You can choose to import the photos there.

Sony sucks when it comes to Macs. I bought Han**** on Blu-Ray and the digital copy is PC only and non-iTunes compatible.

I heard the same thing about the Dark Knight. Weird.

I just got a new Digital Camera as well but oddly enough it didn't come with any type of software CD. I haven't connected it to the Mac yet but hopefully it'll be fine.

Not true about Dark Knight. I have that too, and I've already ripped it.

Ah that's good to know. It must have been user error.
