prabeau Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Is using Parallels ( or like ) and loading windows the only way to use Composer on a MAC. Went to MAC years ago to get away and stay away but if there is no alternative ……I have been using an old Dell laptop at home but would like to do some programming on the road.Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyknight Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 VMware and Parallels work fine - seperate boot of windows is another option but harder to pull off.There is no and for the foreseable future will not be a composer for Mac OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
