    Hey Tyler,
    Do we have a software disk that will work with Apple. The schedule software disk I have now does not work. Thanks.

    I assume you don’t have a new Intel Mac.

    You have a few options.

    1. You could probly run it in Virtual PC. Its a program made by microsft that allows Mac users to run Windows Xp on thier mac, and then run the HB program within it.

    Pros
    – Commercial Product
    – Been around a while
    Cons
    – 130$ + 130$ for a licence of windows
    – slow and buggy

    2. Assuming you have a mac with OS X, its based on FreeBSD Linux, you could use Darwine, and Mac port of the Linux program Wine. It is a win32 emulator that will allows you to run win32 applications. It will run single applications without having to run windows.

    Pros
    – Free
    – Only run needed program, not all of windows
    – No need for a windows licence
    Cons
    – Not commercial, open source community for help

    If you need help setting up either one, then give me a call. I will have to bring in some other hardware in to walk you through it.
    I have used Wine in Linux, but not OSX, so i couldn’t tell you how to do it off my head.

    I have talked with the programmer, and a mac port will not be possible at this time.

    The suggestions i gave might be the only options you have.

    I will work on getting it to function on a mac, and let you know how it goes.
