inability to download

I tried to download cd’s to clip as instructed for mac in manual. after many tries was unable to do so. when highlighted clip on my imac i could see the cd and chapters. When tried to find it on clip everthing registered as empty. Does this really work with a mac? 

Maybe I can give your partial advice. I am a Mac user with a Clip Sport, not a Clip +.

    What Mac software are you using to encode (rip) your audio CDs into audio (mp3) files?  I use iTunes to convert audio files from CDs into mp3 files (192 or 256 kbps).   I had some problems playing m4a music files on my Clip Sport.

     I use Finder to copy music folders from my Mac into sub folders under Music on my Clip Sport. And then one day I discovered an accumulation of yucky files with a prefix of ._ (dot underscore).  These can be cleared by a few Mac apps.
