I find it's very hard to keep up with embroidery software. I have digitizer Mb. Every up grade cost 500.00, that's what it cost to get to v 5 now. And my windows computer will no longer be supported soon. I have absolutely no desire to return to using a newer window computer,as my newest is a max. And the new version would only work on the newer computer. I don't think I would buy a older embroidery machine. My machine is a Janome mc10001, I love it, and can buy designs and transfer with 512 memory cards. Also have customizer for simple editing, which is great. But such a shame to have digitizing software that cost 1,000. In need of 500. More. And then only windows computer.
I've bought 3 used machines. One is quite old and have had no issues with it what so ever. I realized it's limitations before I bought it so there were no surprises or let downs.

Embrilliance does work with Mac. There are several modules you can purchase for what you want to do. For a starter, you might want the "Thumbnailer" that lets you see images of your designs that you D/L. From this point, choosing a design to emb, I do not understand why you can't load it onto a USB or card via card writer (whatever you use)..does your machine connect directly to a computer? Is that the problem with Mac? I am not familiar with the Berninas, but I will look up the models. Meantime. go to the Embrilliance site and look at the products. I have the Thumbnailer, cost abt $40, covers all formats..I would not take anything for it. It's the only image viewer I've tried and I love it. Not associated with company, but they give wonderful service if you have a problem. When transferring my Thumbnailer to WIN10, the rep called me and totally took over the computer, updated and spent quite some time until it was installed correctly. Yeah, I like the company.
Yes...Embrilliance is really user friendly....And it works perfect with Mac and with Windows....and the support so far as for my experince is wonderful as well.....they have many short tutorials, easy to follow....

As long as you can import designs to your machine by a USB flash drive, there shouldn't be any issue. The problem is with the programs for embroidery machines you install into your computer keeping up with up-dated computers, which tend to not recognize old programs. Thus we need to keep up-dating our programs, and it can be very expensive. I am not familiar with your machine, but if it takes flash cards and not USBs you could have trouble there.
Hope I have helped some
