Mac Alternatives for PSP File Management

1. Manual Transfer (No Software Needed)

1. Connect PSP via USB → Select "USB Connection" on PSP.
2. PSP appears as drive on Mac desktop.
3. Drag files to correct folders:
   • /PSP/GAME/ – Homebrew / signed games
   • /PSP/MUSIC/ – MP3/ATRAC
   • /PSP/VIDEO/ – MP4 (H.264/AVC, 480×272 max)
   • /PSP/PHOTO/ – JPEG, PNG, GIF
   • /PSP/SAVEDATA/ – Game saves
   • /PSP/COMMON/ – Themes, plugins
4. Eject properly (Finder → eject) → "O" on PSP to disconnect.

2. Third-Party Tools (macOS)

• PSP Tools (open-source, CLI) – Package management, ISO/CSO handling, save editing.
• iPSP – GUI tool for file transfer, backup, homebrew install.
• Media Go (via Wine/Crossover) – Runs Windows version on Mac. Buggy, not recommended.
• PPSSPP – Emulator; can manage saves, install homebrew, test ISOs on Mac.

3. Content Sources for Mac Users

• PlayStation Store (web) → Buy PSP/PS1 games → Download to PS3/Vita → Transfer to PSP via USB.
• Homebrew sites: Brewology, Internet Archive PSP Homebrew.

Manual drag-and-drop is the most reliable Mac workflow. No Sony software required.
