There is no official CUDA support for Mac computers as of yet.

ah ok, thanks for the fast answer!
Will there be support in the future or is mac-support not planned?

It is planned, but work is moving at a very slow pace. Right now the pressing issue seems to be fixing the data recorder at Arecibo and finishing off the new version of AstroPulse.

I think there may be a third-party app for the Mac, but I'm not certain about that.
