HS3 for Linux may also be installed on MAC OS.
Note that HS3 on the MAC has only had limited testing so feedback is welcome.
To install on your MAC:
1) Install MONO
A installer for the MAC is available here:
http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html
Download the MRE installer and open it to install.
2) Download the latest HS3 for Linux TAR file, posted in another thread.
3) The download will be in your downloads folder. Extract all the files using your favorite method. You can do this from a Terminal window. Change directory to your Downloads folder then extract the files with:
tar xvf [tar filename]
4) When the files are extracted a folder named "HomeSeer" is created. Open a terminal window and change directory to the HomeSeer folder. Then run HS3 with the command:
./go
It may prompt you for your system password.
++++++++++++++++
Known issues:
* UPNP does not seem to run and will log an error message. Go into HS3 setup and disable UPNP. It is not really needed as you can use the URL find.homeseer.com to find the HomeSeer web server.
* Ideally, HS3 should start when the MAC starts. If a MAC expert can post instructions on how to do this, I can add those instructions to this post.
