Should be the same as the PC, just copy the file at the root of the i3 volume. The i3 should see the file and will display that it loaded it on the screen.

Diablo tuners and software (ignition) do not work on Mac. You must use a Windows machine. I know they have the Mac software, but it does not work. Even using the tuner as a drive in MacOS has bad results. Just use Windows, unfortunately.

You don't need to, you can install Windows on your mac using Bootcamp or install an Hypervisor like VirtualBox and run a Windows virtual machine inside OSX.

You can get windows and use it in "trial" mode, you don't need a key just run it and don't activate it since you will only use it for this.

Sadly that does not work either. I have spent countless hours, with video documentation. I could not get it to work even in Windows virtually on my Mac. Trust me, don't use a Mac for this.

Ok I understand for a virtual machine that the usb mapping can be funny sometimes, but Boot Camp will convert your Mac into a PC so this will work.

Have you updated the tuner?

Contact Diablo. After you get the proper driver/update or what ever it is called then you can add the custom tune. After you drag the file to the tuner, eject the tuner but do not unplug it. Wait until the tuner reappears on the screen and then check to see if it took.

++ this.
Drag one file at a time. Wait for i3 screen to show that file has been added.
