Sound VI convert from PC to Mac

[tcpane]

I don't really understand the help files for using a PC and creating a Mac complatible VI that will play sound files. I am a new to Labview 8.6 and I have created a VI to play sound files on a PC. Now I need it to work on a Mac and I'm having trouble figuring out how to do that. Could someone go into detail on how to do this?

I have not tried this in recent versions of LV, but in the past I usually had to change parameters like the sampling rate and stereo/mono, 8-bit/16-bit, ... The default values tend to be different but the VIs themselves work on both platforms.  You can determine programmatically which OS you are using by a property node (I do not recall the property name at the moment) and use that to select a case with the appropriate values for the sound parameters.

I'm using the sound VI's in the graphics and sound palette. They appear to not work with Mac OS. The help says to use the Mac compatible ones to convert. But I can't find them and don't really understand how to go about it.
