OSX kills m6 - fat related

I'm sorry...I just bought the M9 and was very sad to plug it into my MacBook and see nothing happen.

I got as far as finding this thread, but I'm afraid I don't know what these things mean:

Format
Low-Format
Resource

I know, in general, what formatting a computer is. But how do I format and low format the phone?

Basically, I'm asking if anybody can please explain this in language that an idiot (read: me) can understand?

I can't post here without complaining: I just paid $450 for a phone that doesn't work on Macs without a workaround? I can't believe meizu hasn't fixed this problem since it's been present since the M6. Unbelievable.

Thanks all.

strangely i have a similar problem with my m8. it wont let me eject it properly in mac os x, so i have to remove the cable unsafely. after doing this about 20 times the cable stops working, only charges! i'm on my 5th cable now and am running out of ideas...

You must turn on USB debugging and storage in settings. Then it will work with Mac :-) At least with snow leopard!
