Specifications
Benefits and improvements. This utility updates the Reader™ for Mac software to version 2.4.01.10241 and includes the following changes: The 'Kobo Store' icon and link replace the 'Reader™ Store' icon and link to enable direct access to the Kobo eBook Store. I'm using this with a 2018 Mac mini to download pictures from my Sony A7R III SD cards. RAW image downloads really fast, especially if the card is UHS-II. I was able to copy 10 GB from a Sony UHS-II card to my Mac mini's internal SSD in about 40 seconds. Windows and Mac OS users can both use Sony's latest eBook Library software to transfer Adobe DRM-protected content to and from the Sony Reader. See Sony's site for more information. Note: On Mac OS, the new eBook Library software does not add support for these devices to Digital Editions itself.
