You will need Windows. Several on the forum, me included, are Mac users that got a low end Windows laptop for this. You don't need anything fancy or much computing power.Can iOS make changes or is windows best. Am I gonna need a windows computer?

If you haven't seen it yet, the following link will take you to a good primer to get you started. Go slow, start with Plain English modules until you get comfortable with it. Make one change at a time and record original values in case something unexpected happens. Then you can undo the change. Search FORScan on youtube, there are some good videos. Good luck.Thanks, my head is ready to explode trying to figure this out. I was starting to figure it out but you made it clear for me.

I know this is a slightly old thread, but to clarify for anyone coming across this in the future: you can use Forscan with a Mac just fine, as that is what I use. You can download VirtualBox for free and can install Windows as a virtual machine. Literally the only thing I need to use Windows for.
I recommend the wired Forscan over wireless honestly; my favorite one is the OBDLink EX.
