Convert a .img File to .iso MacOS

I needed to figure out how to convert a .img "image" file to a .iso file for a virtual machine on MacOS. I tried some converting software but it was taking forever so I went searching for a native solution and MacOS has a utility built right in for this exact workload. It's simple even though I messed it up the first time HAHAHA! Subscribe for more Tech & Music Videos!

Thanks for this but it would have been so much better if you would have posted a link to what you read or at least put the command in the description. I couldn't even see your screen since it is so small.
hdiutil convert '/Path/To/Dir/MyFile.img' -format UDTO -o '/Path/To/Dir/MyFile.iso'

Interresting and efficient. However I tested the command line on an elive.3.0.6 img, and the iso I get appears not to be bootable... I now got to find the next step before I can enjoy my elive VM ;-)

elive is 32 bit that could be the issue since as far as I am aware they do not support 64 bit yet. I may be wrong but that might be the issue. Also try deleting the .cdr from the syntax by selecting the iso and renaming

What do I do if it appears that there is no space on the device

[@joesalyers]

Without anymore information I can't answer your question, but if you want to elaborate I will try to help. Cheers
