Kindle Root Help

[Crenick]

I tried to root my Kindle Fire last night, followed the Windows instructions and got all the way to he part where I ha to use SuperOneClick. Well, just my luck, something was wrong with SuperOneClick, and everytime the program would start to open, it would "unexpectedly stop working." long story short, I got frustrated, uninstalled everything from the Windows computer, and drew my white flag. Well, after much searching, I got extremely envious. I want to yet again, however, I am leaving home, so now I will only have access to my Mac. Is this still possible to do with a mac, successfully, and with not a whole lot of tech lingo knowledge?

I used the tool found in this thread. It's a Mac specific auto root. Worked perfectly for me.

Crenick,

If you don't get the Mac to work, next time try this utility on the Windows PC. Much easier than going through all those other steps, IMHO.

Kindle Fire Utility v0.9.5 (3/30/12) - xda-developers

Hope it all goes smooth!
