Hi, Simon. Well, your info is very helpful, but not what I wanted to
hear. Thanks so much for sending, though. I was afraid somebody
might say it wasn't possible. I wonder how you're supposed to use
their IBraille product, which is supposed to be Braille translation
for the Mac? Hmmm. The guy at Sighted Electronics said he'd gotten
an Index to work with his Mac, but now I wonder. I tried everything
yesterday, and it just wouldn't even install. I look forward to any
further discussion of this topic.

Hello,
I have an index everest braille embosser which I use successfully
with Windows xp. I've e-mailed index braille to ask them whether my
everest could be made compatible with a Mac computer and they said
no. I seem to think that basic d embossers may be similar. hope I am
wrong for your sake.

Hello, list. I am attempting, rather unsuccessfully, to install a
Basic D Braille embosser on my Mac. Actually, the Basic D is on
our network at the office. It works fine from the PC, but alas,
the Mac won't even install the drivers for it. I've gone to www.indexbraille.com
and downloaded the driver from there, and I've also downloaded
the full IBraille package. Neither of them will install on my
Mac, using Leopard. When I get to the point at which it tells me
how much room the installation needs, it always says zero or
something like "this program needs no additional space." Can
someone shed some light on this subject, and is there another
driver I can install that doesn't have anything to do with the one
at www.indexbraille.com or Sighted Electronics? I have a feeling
that these are bad disk images, but this is just a really big
guess on my part, and I do hope that I am wrong. Any help would
be very much appreciated.
