There is no possibility for importing maps for Mac on openstreetmap at this time, only possible for linux.

Could you define what you mean by "maps" here? Are you asking if there's a version of https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-14-04/ for macOS? If so, I'm not aware of one, but that doesn't mean that one does not exist.

Most of the tools used are to an extent OS-agnostic - so running them on something that (to me) very much resembles BSD Unix from the 1990s shouldn't be too much of a problem.

If that doesn't work, then an Ubuntu VM under something like Parallels should certainly be possible.

This is the mail I received, but no possiblility to download for macos

Hi,

Your request for a Garmin map on garmin.openstreetmap.nl is ready.

The server has generated four different configurations of your map: _windows.exe = Installer for Garmin BaseCamp/MapSource (Windows). _macosx.zip = Installer for Garmin BaseCamp/RoadTrip (Mac OSX) _gmapsupp.zip = Combined image for direct manual placement on the GPS device (gmapsupp.img) _tiles.zip = A zip file containing the tiles in the request, especially useful for Linux users (e.g. QLandkarte)

Please browse to the website listed below and download the map configuration(s) you're interested in. Your request will be available on the server for 60 hours before it's deleted. http://osm2.pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de/garmin/generic_new/18-10-2016/caf67fae648898b163cdea3da493dba8

So your question is about OSM maps generated by garmin.openstreetmap.nl, your original question didn't include this information.

indeed. It is not the first time that I want to download maps for garmin. Before no problems.

See MacOS in the OSM wiki. It lists various software for viewing maps, editing, recording GPX tracks and so on.

According to your comment you are having problems with downloading maps from garmin.openstreetmap.nl. Please see this similar question here: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/52812/gmapsuppimg-missing

There's a problem with garmin.openstreetmap.nl at the moment. See this other question for details.
