Best to contact Kev Loomes, I'm sure he will be able to solve your problem.

You will need a program like Parallels on your mac to run it.

Basically you can't open a 'Windows' program on a Mac - unless you open/install it whilst in 'Boot Camp' which is on your Mac.

Like has already been said, there are lots of programs to download that will allow you to run Windows stuff.

p.s. I know of another CC who runs it on a Mac no problem (although havent spoke to him for a while). Maybe other Mac users can give their opinion to confirm?

Kev must have terrible after sales service people never seem to be able to just call him and ask for support, he leaves it to Mark to answer any questions, certainly put me off buying any thing from him, he comes across as a take your money and run type ;D ;D

I wouldn't be surprised if i saw him on next weeks Rogue Traders, with Matt Alright chasing him down the street ;) ;)

Don't know about Mac but I use Ubuntu which won't run any windows software. If I need to use PC software I run it on xp within in a virtual machine on my computer. It's always a painful reminder of how rubbish Windows is.

Hi Guys

From a thread elsewhere I think Mike is trying to be humorous.

Kev is a very helpful bloke!

Cheers
