Qt library should be downloaded and installed on your Mac to run myCNC software. The library can be found on the Nokia website-
http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/qt-for-op ... n-mac-os-x

One of packages -
http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-ma ... -4.7.4.dmg
or
http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-ma ... g-libs.dmg

Installation procedure for myCNC is described below-
 

1. Download myCNC software (Linux & MAC version) from the website.
   
   
2. Click Downloads folder. Select and click on the downloaded file (myCNC-1.52-2011-0523.tar) to extract files from "tar" container.
   Files will be extracted into "myCNC" folder in "Downloads"
   
   
   
   
   
3. Open Terminal window.
   Change current folder to Downloads/myCNC. To do it type command:
   
   cd   ./Downloads/myCNC
   
   then run myCNC start script. Type command:

4. myCNC software will start. Hide terminal window (do not close it!) and use myCNC control software under Apple MAC
