Just got this camera and I'm using it on a Mac. So far Avtechs VideoViewer can find the camera, display video but nothing else. It is only a viewer. I also have security spy and so far it cannot connect to the camera. Neither can I connect to the camera from a browser on a mac. They make software for connecting the camera on an iPhone and on an iPad so it's surprising to me that so far their is no way to use the camera's motion detection, recording functions from a mac computer !

Do any of you haver any ideas how I can use this camera's full funtions on a mac ?

You can do what I do and it works perfectly every time on my Macbook Air. Install VMWare Fusion, install Windows, run IE in a Unity Window so it looks seamless like another Mac app and then put the IE on your Taskbar. I don't even notice Fusion running and since I rarely reboot my Air its always instant on and IE is a second away.

Thanks for that, I think I met you on another CCTV forum, I remember the name .

I can run my foscam camera from Safari on my mac but in a browser there is no record or record from motion detection function. When you use your camera in IE is there a record and record on motion detection function ?
