    Default eBay to eBid using a Mac -- any ideas?

    Hi! I'm just getting started on eBid (like many others, disgusted with eBay). Anyway, I only use a Mac and Turbo Lister doesn't work with Macs. So, does anyone have any ideas on how I can pull my listings from eBay to here?

    I also use another website (which shall remain nameless) -- wound up doing the "cut & paste" thing with my listings for it.

    Thanks for any and all suggestions and advice!

    Thanks for the link, but Turbo Lister won't work with my computer -- I'm on a Mac. Any other ideas?

    Thanks again!

    From memory can you not create a download file from your seller dashboard in csv format, then download the spreadsheet from My eBid > My Bulk Upload.

    Load your CSV file int the spreadsheet, make the changes you need then use bulk upload to send the spreadsheet to ebid.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Sherlock. Been to my seller dashboard, but can't find anything about download a file of my listings. Thought maybe listing analytics would do it, but that doesn't seem to be working (at least not for me).

    Any other ideas?

    The only answer I have ever seen anyone come up with is to get someone with a PC to do the export for you.

    That's not to say there isn't another way - just not one that I am aware of.

    I found a solution for you I downloaded a program called CrossOver for Mac it will trick you mac into letting you install Turbo Lister to create the CSV files to upload with ninja lister. The Program is free to try which is what I did but Im thinking of buying it for this purpose alone. I spent hours searching and this is what worked for me. Now I just got to figure out how to post them after uploading them?

    I thought there had always been Windows emulators for Macs (the name Wine springs to mind - but not sure what it is exactly). Why then had Mac users reported there was no way they could run TL?

    Your right but they only run if you have dual operating systems and even still turbo lister runs into problems. This crossfire program allows you to do this with dual operating systems or having to install any type of windows software. Its a quick alternative even though I think using a PC is easier but if you dont have one his is a good alternative

    To get a CSV from ebay you need to subscribe to file exchange, once this is done you can request the file type you want and download it once it is done. Not too sure about how it will cross from CSV file into ebid format just yet. I think that the Turbo Lister (crossfire) option is probably best. I'll update once I know how and if I was successful with the whole CSV thing.
