Ctrl4notWkng Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hello All, Hope you can help with helping me with steps to get composer HE running on Mac. I have been using windows for years, never used a mac- but my PCs never last for more than 18 months. Now, I have decided to try the Mac route to see if I'll have better luck. I just found out that I can't easily download composer HE on my mac! I have read that people use parrallels, fusion, bootcamp- I don't even know what these are. Would someone be kind enough to provide steps or a link that will show me: 1) how to install one of these on my mac 2) how to get composer HE on my mac when 1) is completed. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 you need to use VmWare Fusion, Bootcamp or Parallels to run a Window VM. There is no Mac version of composer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post was asking for someone can help me with the steps I need in order to get one of these ( VmWare Fusion, Bootcamp or Parallels) on my computer. As well as steps to get windows on my mac, and then to get he composer HE on the windows. I am lost and don't really know where to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I would start by reading this article - http://lifehacker.com/run-windows-on-your-mac-virtualbox-vs-vmware-fusion-vs-1750474360 There are benefits to each. I would recommend once you make a decision, get a windows license and then we can help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ctrl4notWkng Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Hello all, So, I have installed parallels and windows 10. Can anyone tell me how to install composer HE on it, if there is also a ink with steps that I can follow that will be very helpful as well. I have a mac and I am not sure how to install on this new virtual machine. I think the composer HE I need is the 2.53- that's the version my system is on. any help is appreciated.

msgreenf Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Go to customer.control4.com and login. Select software and find composer he and click download. Install like any Windows app Sent from my STV100-1 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
