 +====== Damaged or Corrupt message ======
 +If you're getting a message just trying to mount the DMG installer file, this was the solution one person found to work for him.
 +
 +  What i did was went to security tab, unlock the security (bottom left lock, click on it) then
 +  check off where it says "allow applications from everyone"​.
 +  ​
 +  Then install the driver for Mac users, it should download this way. After the driver is 
 +  installed, the actual ECMLink program should now be able to download and run. 
 +  ​
 +  Make sure when you are all done to go back to to security reasons, check off "​accept ​
 +  applications from App store and known sources"​ and lock it.
 +
 +
 +====== The application doesn'​t start up ======
 +If you get the application installed OK, but then it simply exits immediately after the initial splash screen comes up, you may be running a 64-bit OS and need to get a 32-bit Java installed and/or run the ECMLink application as a 32-bit application. ​ This is what one user reported to work.  Others responded saying it fixed their issue as well.
 +
 +  try right clicking on the icon in the apps folder, and click get info, then check
 +  the 32 bit box, this is assuming your laptop is 64 bit, my macbook pro 13 did the
 +  same thing.
 +
 +Also note that as of [[https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​downloads.php|v3.26.65 of the ECMLink application]],​ we now require a 32-bit JVM explicitly in the launcher executable. ​ So you should be getting messages about this now when it happens instead of mysterious splash screens disappearing.
 +
 +====== Latest and greatest drivers ======
 +
 +We use device drivers provided by FTDI.  You can always grab the absolute latest and greatest drivers off their website.
 +
 +[[http://​www.ftdichip.com/​Drivers/​VCP.htm|FTDI device drivers page]]
 +
 +I would highly recommend making sure you have the device driver updated in addition to the ECMLink application.
