User Reviews

  • Does not Work on MacOS Sierra.
  • Not working at all on Yosemite. Better look out for something else.
  • Sadly this application appears to no longer function under Yosemite.
  • The application simply does not work. I am on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9.4. I installed the app according to the instructions. When I click on the PiWriter icon, nothing happens. It does not appear possible to submit a ticket for this project so I am submitting this review.
  • I've been using PiWriter and PiCloner for about a year now and these two tools have saved me many headaches, countless keystrokes, and a bunch of frustrating moments. These tools make creating and writing disk images much easier. I'm really looking forward to the new "ApplePi" tools that these are evolving into and want to thank the developer here for sharing their work here. At the very least, I owe you a beer! Thank you!!
