Hi CarolineW, Your response is the only one to-date. Thank you for proving there is some life in the Mac forum. Although my VEC Infinity pedal is useless with ES on the Mac, the hot-keys in ES do work. So rather than spend big money on a commercial transcribing program, I assigned Play/Stop F8, Rewind F7, and Fast Forward F9 hot-keys, and ES is in use. A bit of a distraction and not as elegant as the pedal, but my wife and I are at least not stuck in the mud. We are holding onto the pedal because it is well made, priced fairly, and not at fault; and one of these days ES may actually support it. ~ Tomtim

Gisele, Suzanne, Natalie, Misha, Rae, Herbivore, Did you ever get a reply? If not, I'll join your club ... dead silence from my post about the VEC Infinity pedal not working on my new Mac Mini. I read somewhere that you must place your audio file in a particular directory (folder), I thought it was "documents", otherwise ES won't find it. But I tried playing a .wav file this morning, and it would not play even though I had it in "documents". But I have no trouble playing .mp3 files. If you want to convert .wav to .mp3, just download razorlame for free (google it); it's virus free, fast, simple, I've used it for many years. ~Tomtim~

OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. New Infinity pedal IN-USB-2 is recognized in Express Scribe pedal wizard. But pedal presses are not = all 3 buttons seem dead. Yet they work perfectly on my old PC ... which is dying and must be thrown away soon. So the pedal is good. I called Martel where I bought the pedal, nice tech support, who said there are no drivers to install, the OS has what it needs. "Try different USB ports." Didn't fix it. I bought the tech support plan from NCH but haven't heard any ideas to make the pedal work on the Mac, just one prompt email regarding the old PC, which is dying worse every day ... all audio now biting the dust.
