I have a Mac. How do I update my device or load tunes?

The inTune is a Mac-compatible device. Updating an inTune on a Mac OS X powered computer will require update files to be manually downloaded and “dragged” over to the inTune device’s drive. When you plug the inTune into your Mac, open a new finder window, and look for a “volume” labeled “intune.”

 

Step 1:

Visit DiabloSport’s online forum H E R E to gain access to the update files available for your inTune.

 

 

Step 2:

You will begin downloading files from the DiabloSport forum. All files in the first post of the forum contain “firmware” updates for the device, and the second post will contain the latest vehicle specific databases. Download all of the available files for the inTune to a folder on your Mac. Note: Try to save the files to a place you can remember them by using the right click / Apple Button + Click and selecting “save as” option in your browser.

 

 

Step 3:

Plug in your inTune to an open USB port on your Mac and wait for the device to boot up. Once the inTune is on its’ home screen, press APPLE KEY+N or click your finder icon in the doc to open a new finder window. On the right hand side, a new “Volume” will be available called “inTune.” Select this item to open the inTune Drive, and then drag each of the previously downloaded inTune update files on to your inTune drive.

 

Step 4:

The inTune will display a message “preparing” and will begin its internal update process NOTE: The files you dragged to your inTune drive will disappear once the update process has begun.

This update could take up to 30 minutes depending on the last time your inTune was updated. Once complete, the inTune will reboot back to the main screen and be ready for use in your vehicle.

 

Step 5:

THIS STEP IS FOR USERS WHO REQUIRE CALIBRATION UPDATES FOR THEIR VEHICLE

When you get the inTune to your vehicle, select Tune Vehicle / Write Vehicle and it will either display a menu of tunes, or ask if you would like to check for a “Calibration Update.” Select "yes" for the calibration update, and then you will bring the inTune back to your Mac and plug it in to USB again. Open a new Finder window by pressing APPLE KEY + N or clicking the finder icon in your doc.

 

Step 6:

THIS STEP IS FOR USERS WHO REQUIRE CALIBRATION UPDATES FOR THEIR VEHICLE

Browse to the volume “INTUNE” on the left hand side of your finder window and locate the “info.xml” file in the drive. You will copy of the ‘info.xml’ file that is contained in the ‘INTUNE’ drive and email it to support@diablosport.com”. NOTE: not all vehicles require calibration updates; This is generally for late model Chrysler/Dodge vehicles, but not specifically limited to such.

 

Step 7:

THIS STEP IS FOR USERS WHO REQUIRE CALIBRATION UPDATES FOR THEIR VEHICLE

Once you have emailed your info file to support@diablosport.com, the support team will email you back a special file that you will drag in to your ‘INTUNE’ drive as specified in previous steps. Once that file is loaded, bring your inTune back out to your vehicle and click “Tune Vehicle / Write Vehicle.” You will then be prompted to install the calibration update, and subsequently tune your vehicle.

 

If you have any trouble along the way, please email us at support@diablosport.com and we will be glad to assist you.
