Downloading RCA Easy Rip software on to a mac computer

Need to know if RCA Easy Rip software for RCA Digital Media Player can be down loaded on to a I Mac computer?

Bought my son an RCA Digital Media Player from Walmart and the sales clerk told me that it was similar to an IPOD. However, I am trying to down load the RCA Easy Rip media software on to the IMAC and it is not working.

Thanks for all your help,

    Hello, As far as I can see from system requirements in the manual for the M4204 (page 8), only support for Windows XP and higher:http://www.voxxsupport.com/images/manual...

When i got my rca mp3 the easy rip software was able to open.

If you have upgrade your computer after it was busted, that could cause your old version of the easy rip software to not recognize your rca mp3. what you'll prob need to do is update the easy rip software.

Rca mp3 easy rip software will not load

If you are running windows vista or XP, try running the easyrip installer as an administrator. To do this, right click the installer program file, and choose "run as administrator" (third one from the top).
Hope that helps.

MP3 Player not recognizing Real Player Video Files

That Opal's Easy Rip Software does not recognize Real Video format naturally. You may have to download a free program called Riva FLV Encoder to convert the Real Video files to AVI format. Once they are in AVI format, the Easy Rip software will recognize the file and convert them to your player. If you have lost your installation CD, you can get the Easy Rip software from:

My rca 4208 mp3 player froze up. what do I need to do to get it to work.

RCA M4208

Make sure the lock switch on the back is in the unlocked position. For the player to say "Loading," especially the first time you plug it into the computer, is normal - your computer is communicating with the player, installing drivers, and trying to load the Easy Rip Software. If it stays on loading past 10 minutes, however, something is not right. If you have selected to open the device automatically using Windows Media Player, you are headed for trouble, especially if you have more music and other files on your computer than the mp3 player can handle. If you have accidentally done this, disable auto-sync in Windows Media Player.
If you have checked the above, and you are still having problems, disconnect the mp3 player from the computer. Hold in the power button for 10 seconds or more to reset the mp3 player. Try plugging the mp3 player into the computer again. If it stays on loading for more than 10 minutes, unplug the mp3 player, go into the settings menu and change the mode from MSC to MTP or vice versa. If it still misbehaves when you replug the mp3 player into the computer, download the latest Easy Rip software from RCA's website and update your player's firmware - take note of the section they have on Windows Vista if you have Windows Vista. Good luck!
