+================================================================================
+
+Mac OS X 10.9 and earlier is using PCSC-Lite as smart card service which allows
+using the standard routine for `configuration on Unix<vicc_config>`.
+
+On Mac OS X 10.10 you should have configured the generation of
+:file:`Info.plist` at compile time. Now do the following for registering |vpcd|
+as USB device:
+
+1. Choose an USB device (e.g. mass storage, phone, mouse, ...), which will be
+   used to start |vpcd|. Plug it into the computer.
+
+2. Run the following command to get the device's product and vendor ID::
+
+   system_profiler SPUSBDataType
+
+3. Change :file:`/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/ifd-vpcd.bundle/Info.plist`
+   to match your product and vendor ID:
+
+.. literalinclude:: Info.plist
+    :emphasize-lines: 34,39
+
+   Note that ``ifdFriendlyName`` can be used in the same way as ``DEVICENAME``
+   `described above<vicc_config>`.
+
+4. Restart the PC/SC service::
+
+   sudo killall -SIGKILL -m .*com.apple.ifdreader
+
+Now, every time you plug in your USB device |vpcd| will be started. It will be
+stopped when you unplug the device.
