Hello, I've been trying to install Rockbox using Mac Catalina OS, and have not been successful. I'll add that I'm also not tech savvy.
I first tried using the auto install to install Rockbox Utility, but when I attempt to run it, I get an error that the software needs updated. I was able to download <bootloader-ipod6g.ipod > and using the link bluebrother posted about Catalina and 64bit (
https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,53340.0.html), I downloaded <RockboxUtility-v1.4.1-86_64Applmage>, but I'm not sure what to do with these files, and what the next steps are...
When I try to run either one of these files I get the msg "There is no application set to open the document". Assuming I need to follow the documentation for "manual installation" (covering OS X not Catalina), I think my issue is with bootloader(?). Following the documentation, the link in step#2 takes me to a "404 files not found". and when I've tried the terminal command <mks5lboot–dfuscan>, "command not found" returns. I did install libusb using Macports (step 3).
I'm guessing that I've not installed bootloader correctly/completely(?)
Any help would be appreciated.
