apple powerbook if you look to the right of this page, it features optical input and output! if you're like me and have had a hankering (for a hunk of cheese) for mac + minidisc compatibilty, well you'll have to settle for this. I like to take my apple notebooks everywhere and my NHF800 isn't to far behind (its usually in my pocket.) here's hoping for some compatibility soon.

Hi, I have been using minidiscs for the past 7 years or so and am currently enjoying my mz-nh800. However, in my search for the best technology, I aquired an apple ibook. We all know that MD/HiMD just isn't compatible with an Apple and frankly my old pc is just that...too old and I am growing impatient with the errors in sonicstage. Everyone says, just get an Ipod...well, I just don't like the fact that I have to change my battery by sending it back to apple, or that once dead, my music collection is gone with it. (not much of a collection in my mind if it can be lost just like that). To the point of the matter, I was wondering if any user out there had beatjam 2005 as it is the same software that the Buffalo HiMD uses (and its compatible with macs. ) I've tried buffalos site and they only offer up the Windows version of their software. So, if anyone can help me and the many other mac at home users out, I'm very sure it would be much appreciated!

Hi, this is my first post. This happened to me as well. I'm no longer on warrenty so i figured it best to just open the precious md up. Turns out that the recording head had been bent, (probably by a minidisc being inserted) and no longer functions like it used to. (I was reading many different forums to try and get an answer and apparently this specific model has a problem with the recording head being damaged easily) I have an old broken MZ-N505 that has a similar recording head, but I just don't have the time to de solder everything. Purchased a NH 800 instead of going through all that trouble. I hope it helps
