Save a little longer and upgrade your A:M to v13 for $99 Quote
heyvern Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 Yes, 100% cross platform on the same disk. I have been doing this for years. I have Mac and PC and run AM on both machines. -vern Quote
clonewar12345 Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Sorry to jump in but can you have both installed at the same time Quote

Version 10 of A:M is pretty old. I recall that there was a major problem running older versions A:M on Tiger, which is the latest version of Mac OS X. Mac users of A:M had to postpone upgrading to Tiger or quit running A:M until Hash got A:M updated for it. V10, I think, is too old. Also, Version 10 of A:M would be for the PowerPC processor. Mac has switched to Intel microprocessors. The old software isn't designed for the new processors. To deal with this, Apple has a translator program built into the new system. The translator lets you run older software, but for some applications there is a major performance penalty. A few programs won't run at all, even with the translator. So your best bet for your new Mac is to do the $100 upgrade to A:M version 13/14. The latest A:M has a lot of new features and it runs natively on the newest Macintoshes. Quote
John Bigboote Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Sorry to jump in but can you have both installed at the same time Well...Martin's got some 'thuggs' he sends out if you do. NAW! Go ahead! Let us know which works better! Quote
Logrus Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Sorry to jump in but can you have both installed at the same time You sure can.. Once you fire up A.M on one computer you can take the disc out an fire it up on another machine. Quote
clonewar12345 Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Yea but is it legal and/or ethical to have it installed on both compters? I dont want to violate anything. I dont those 'thugs' from hash comming to my door. LOL Quote
frosteternal Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Yea but is it legal and/or ethical to have it installed on both compters? I dont want to violate anything. I dont those 'thugs' from hash comming to my door. LOL Installed, yes. Running simultaneously, no. If you want to do that contact Hash and buy a 2nd license. Quote
jon Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 i'm happy to talk about ethics all day, but free legal counsel is usually worth every penny. -jon Quote
