Marauder Posted April 10, 2013 Report Posted April 10, 2013 Unfortunately not for the Aspen stuff! (I'm going to try it anyways...) JSUM for Mac We are excited to announce the ability to update your Garmin and Avidyne avionics data and chart databases using a Mac computer. Jeppesen Distribution Manager is the name of the new application and the interface has been completely revamped from the JSUM you use today. It has been designed in accordance with the latest user design principles in mind and we spent a great deal of time and effort working directly with customers to improve the design and workflow. Notable changes include: Web-based user interface Improved design framework, graphics and workflow New drag-and-drop capability Enhanced filtering by aircraft, avionics and data service type Many customers have requested JSUM on the Mac, and now we are ready to deliver. For more information, including supported avionics, system requirements and instructions on how to download the new application, please visit www.jeppesen.com/JDM/download. Sincerely, Jeppesen Quote
Jeff_S Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 Unfortunately they say that they will never support the GNS480, which leaves me in the cold, or at the very least, leaves me having to use the Windows version. But I'm sure that will continue to get updated as well...it's not like EVERY pilot has switched to a Mac (yet). Quote
Marauder Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Posted April 22, 2013 Just a quick update. I did download it and it will work with my 650 but not the Aspen stuff. In fact, it doesn't even show the Aspen databases on the Mac version. Hopefully you are correct and it will get updated in a future revision. Quote
