install cute on Mac
« on: October 01, 2008, 05:59:17 PM »
Can I install my cutesitebuilder 3.0 on a Mac? And if so how do I go about it? My daughter sent me a Mac laptop as a gift and I have never used one....Tom in Oregon

CSB is a WINDOWS program only. Sorry.  :'(  There was never a mac version produced.


  ??? ??? :idea:
Having said that, some people run a windows emulation program.
This allows them to have windows based programs installed and running on a mac. 
You might look into that for CSB or other windows programs you have.
Don't know if it will work. I have no access to such things so I can't say that it will.

There's a free open source product that is still in trials....
Q is an open source Cocoa port developed by Mike Kronenberg and cordney based on QEMU. It’s basically an x86 emulator that allows you to install Windows, Linux, or any other x86-based operating system onto a special disk image file and run it, ala Virtual PC, from inside of a Mac OS X window. It’s now available as a Universal Binary which runs on both Intel and PPC macs.  Read about how to install this open-source software: h**p://www.beatnikpad.com/archives/2006/03/20/windows-mac-q
And here's the site to download it:  h**p://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/20830/

I make no recommendation or warranty. Never used any of these types of things. 
Just posted a few that I found but I do not know if they will work for you or not. 
If so, would be great to know! So post any results if you try something like this please.

I also don't know if it will work but someone I know using a Mac said Parallels was very good and couldn't do without it.

Etienne, glad that you reported a real experience of someone you know. That has more weight for me than reading testimonials online.

Parallels was the first one I listed and from what I read, it really sounded interesting! Some of the talk about it looked very good. And the price is not outrageous, if it does give compatibility.
