Here is a flashpap install tutorial on Mac hopefully it will also help, if you get stuck I am sure we can help along the way

Well, ok I tried the tutorial for Apple.  When I get to "Scan FlashAir SD card" it doesn't find any dates.  It is a brand new card.  I guess I'm stuck.

You are going to have to use it overnight before any data will be listed.

[LarryRapp]

Thank you.  I assume that means with the FlashAir in the ResMed?  Will the FlashAir be the same as a regular card?  I mean can it be placed in the computer and Sleepyhead run against it?  Where do you look for the transfered data?
Thanks!

[jaswilliams]

The card is a standard sd card with extra features so at worst you can still take the card out of the machine and use sleepyhead you won’t loose anything.

I assume that means with the FlashAir in the ResMed? 

Yes, the FlashAir will now stay in the Resmed.

Will the FlashAir be the same as a regular card?  I mean can it be placed in the computer and Sleepyhead run against it?  

Like jaswilliams said, the FlashAir is nothing more than an SD card with a wireless communication chip. You can connect to it wirelessly using FlashPAP while it remains in the Resmed, or you can use it like a regular SD card and insert it in your PC for data download.

Where do you look for the transferred data?

During the setup phase of FlashPAP, you (should have) supplied a directory on your PC.  When you run SleepyHead, you will point the import function to this directory. This directory also serves as a data storage archive for added protection of your data if the SD card should ever fail.

Thanks to both of you guys.  Right now I'm having trouble with config.  It's supposed to be a hidden file on the FlashAir but I can't find it.  I don't know if it's not there or if I can't see hidden files.  You're supposed to see them with cmd-shift-. or a terminal thing.  Nothing works.  

The tutorial doesn't mention the config file, but I think it is important

[LarryRapp]

There is a config file in /SD_WLAN but it is entirely different.

[MitchS]

/SD_WLAN is a hidden folder. If you are seeing it, you will see hidden files as well.

The only config file I know of is in /SD_WLAN. It's the one I used to configure my card.

[LarryRapp]

Thanks.  What's the trick to configuring it (OS-X)?  I thought it should be a simple config file, but opening it with Terminal indicates something else or perhaps I just don't know how to do it.
