    Hi nannotwo,

    To my knowledge there is no way to upload an unofficial OS using a Mac.

    This frustrates me as I am a Mac user myself, and have to boot into my Windows 7 partition in order to tinker with anything on my BlackBerry.

    If there is someone who can figure out a way of how to tweak the OS files using the Mac interface it would be greatly appreciated if you could share your methods.

    Hope this helps!

    if it is an official OS you can connect your BB to you Mac and Desktop manager and it will let you know that it there is an update...back up all your data on DM from your BB before doing anything...its pretty easy after that. But if you are trying to update with a Leaked OS..that's a different story and you may have to use a windows program or wait for an official release....I have a Mac and waiting patiently for an official release OS for my S2. good luck
