quicktime and a cable with 1/8 plug on both ends works just fine.
Plug one end into your cassette player, the other end into your
microphone on your mac (if your mac doesn't have one like the older
ppc macs, then ebay has 6 dollar usb earphone jack/microphone jack
combos) start quicktime, click record, then hit play on your cassette
player. Wait for the tape to stop, edit tthe file to remove the
blanks at the start and end, and you're all done. Export to format of
your choice if you have uicktime pro, or just save and convert using
switch if you don't.
This is how I converted several audio books I had on cassette, and I
had no trouble at all.
