oh i did hear about the tech stream, i’ll do my digging and see how can i use it. but i did read that it’s for windows as you said. what if i own all apple products ? would i still be able to access it ?

There is a link to run a virtual box in the Mac OS application. I too am a Mac user but will probably end up picking up an old used Thinkpad T420 or something similar off ebay for less than $100 to run this stuff. Through the techstream application you can do things like program new key transponders, key fobs, etc. so it is well worth the money. Plus if you get in with a Toyota crew locally you could make a little money on the side with stuff like that.

sweet! for now i might as well use the virtual box but if i do need it for more things down the road i’ll probably invest in a PC or used windows. thanks for the advice

If you've got a Mac, I found this thread very helpful.

I didn't run the xcode stuff, but the rest of it was able to help me through getting it set up.

How to run Techstream on a Mac

I wanted to retire my 15-year-old PC that I only keep around for Techstream, so I decided to try and get it loaded on my Mac. I'm now able to connect to both my '98 LC and the wife's '11 LX and everything appears to be working as it should, so I figured I'd share how I have it set up if anyone...

Yep. Mac is as easy as it comes running VirtualBox. No need to buy anything different than the computer you already have.
