I found out about it because Manny put up a discussion about it. But just call Medtronic and they will be happy to sell you one.

Whoa! What? There is a carelink USB for macs?? Since when? How did y'all find out about it? How did you get it? Thanks!

I also think it Carelink uploads faster using a mac since they finally got it to work on that platform. Of course, I might be biased. ;)

Hi Justin,
That is pretty much what I had counted on, so your confirmation is great. One less thing to be concerend about. I keep telling myself that I really, really, should get a Mac! Thanks!

Hi Trisha,

The disc, as Natalie mentioned, is only a copy of the user manual. And since it is a mini-disc it won't work in any computer that uses a slot-load style CD/DVD drive. But, I do not know that many people who would need a manual to use the Carelink USB anyway. You just plug it in. If you are running windows, it will download the needed drivers automatically. If you are using a Mac, like me, it doesn't need to download anything. It just works automatically. :-)

Natalie,
Isn't it horrendous, how much our mistakes, cost us in the long run!? Since you use a Mac, it will be interesting to see if the Carelink USB for mine, will have a disc for it. Thanks for responding.

Well, if you read the manual first, you might avoid doing something stupid! When I got my new Mac Carelink USB device, it had a small disc, so I promptly inserted it into my disc drive, which is made for large discs. And couldn't get it out. And when I looked at the manual, it specifically said not to use the little disc in a big disc drive because it was only a copy of the user's manual anyway, and you might not be able to get it out. Cost me $50 to get it out!

Just wanted to say hello. I'm a former Navigator user. As of Monday (4/18/11), I will be a new owner of the MM RTGuardian. So what do I do first? Play with it, or read the manual? :) Thanks!

I've been on the CGM from Medtronic for 6 months and love it.My new thrill is to tell I'm beginning to be low before the meter.But it's still great just in case I can't.

OK so my sensor (minimed) sent my pump a low BG alert but my meter BG is 10.4 which is about how high I would expect it to be less than 2 hours after eating.  Why would my sensor be so far out?!
