| Is the Qio driver compatible with a 64-bit kernel boot of OS X 10.6 or 10.7? | Feb-28-12 |
| No, not at this time. 64-bit kernal boot is partially supported, with the following caveats 1) The Panasonic P2 driver is not 64-bit compatible, and 2) Sleep is not supported. |

| My Qio was working fine with my ExpressCard/34 bus interface card, but the Qio does not work with my PCIe Express bus interface card in an early 2009 MacPro. | Mar-31-10 |

| What kind of battery can I use with the Qio? | Apr-08-10 |
| A battery should be capable of providing 12Volts @ 3 Amps and have an XLR 4-pin power connector. Nominal power usage of Qio is 9W, and attached F2s are 8 Watts each. An example of a compatible battery is the Bescor MM7XLR-NC (BC-500 charger sold separately) that can provide 12Volts @ 7.2Amps and has a 50 Watt-hour capacity. This battery could power a Qio for 5.5 hours, or a Qio plus F2 for 3 hours. |

| Why can't a Mac Pro acknowledge the Qio if it is plugged in after the Mac is booted? | Aug-31-10 |
| Plugging in a Qio is like plugging in PCIe cards. In the Mac Pro's case, although media (DVDs, CF cards, SD cards, etc) can be plugged in, there was never an expectation by OS X that a PCIe card could be hot-plugged into a Mac Pro. As a result, OS X has no infrastructure for detecting and starting a driver loading process. The plug-in event is not noticed by the system. |

| I connected a Red Station media reader to the eSATA ports, but the media would not mount. How do I mount the media? | May-06-13 |
| Mac OS 10.7.5 will not mount FAT32 volumes connected to the eSATA ports of this device. (FAT32 volumes mount fine in 10.6.8 and in 10.8.2 and later.)
As a workaround, you can manually mount volumes with the following procedure:
1) Open terminal (Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
2) Run the following command:
diskutil list
Look for the target volume in the IDENTIFIER column. The volume will have a name like disk4s2.
3) Create a mount point by using the following terminal command:
mkdir /Volumes/myvolume
Note: myvolume is the name of the mount point you will create and must be unique - for example, you cannot mkdir /Volumes/FAT if a volume named FAT is already mounted.
4) Mount the target volume with the command:
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk4s2 /Volumes/myvolume
Note: disk4s2 is the from the IDENTIFIER column from step 2. myvolume is the unique name you chose in step 3.
The volume should now be mounted and is available for use. The volume must also be unmounted through terminal - finder will not be able to unmount the volume.
The command to unmount the volume is:
sudo umount /Volumes/myvolume
where myvolume is the mount point you created in step 3. |

| Is the Qio compatible with OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion)? | May-06-13 |
| Qio is compatible with OS X 10.8.0 through 10.8.3 when using Qio software v1.2.1 and later. There are specific steps you should take, depending on your setup:
New Qio User
If you are installing Qio software on a computer for the first time, you may do so with no issues on a computer already running 10.6.8-10.8.3.
Existing Qio User
If you intend to update your computer's OS from OS X 10.6 or 10.7 to 10.8.3, you MUST install Qio 1.2.1 or later software before upgrading the OS! If you have been using Qio with your computer running OS X 10.8.1 or earlier, and upgraded to 10.8.2 or later before upgrading the Qio software to v1.2 or later, your system may kernel panic, regardless of whether the Qio hardware is installed or connected.
If you already installed OS X 10.8.2 or later on a computer with which you've been using Qio, you may restore it to working order by following the directions here. Note that after you perform this procedure under , you must reinstall the latest Qio software under 10.8.2 or later.
Note
Regardless the Qio software version used, P2 media is not currently supported under any version of OS X 10.8. Mountain Lion does not support 32-bit drivers, and unfortunately, Panasonic's driver for P2 support is 32-bit. For a more detailed explanation about the P2 driver situation, please refer to this article .
