| Posted: | | | | That depends on how much patience you have.
All indications are that it will never happen.
There are windows emulators that can be used on the Mac to run the windows version however. | | | Hal |

| Posted: | | | | If you go to Support at the top of this page and click on All Categories, the second question on the page is:
Is there a Macintosh version of DVD Profiler available?
And the answer is:
With apologies to our Mac fans, at this time there is no Macintosh version, and no firm plans to create a Mac version. Although we cannot provide support for this solution, many users successfully run DVD Profiler under Virtual PC on their Mac.
So it sounds like it could be quite a long wait. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here. Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection. |

Don't understand? Maybe DVDProfilerWiki.org does! |

| Posted: | | | | Yes the best solution for you, hollywood_lady is to install a virtualization software like Paralleles or VMWare to install a copy of Windows on your Mac. It's the easiest solution I think and the solution that works better because with software like Wine (Mac or Linux) some features don't work properly and it's not always easy to setup.
My girlfriend has installed Paralleles on her Macbook Pro with Win XP on it and it works great for all applications (even big applications like Adobe's application) but it depends of what Mac's model you own. I think Paralleles works only with Intel's based models. | | | Regards Cyrille |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Cyrille: Quote: I think Paralleles works only with Intel's based models. Yes, as does VMWare Fusion... I run DVD Profiler with VWWare Fusion on my Mac and it runs almost as smooth and fast as previously on my Windows PC. | | | Achim [諾亞信; Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.

| Posted: | | | | There are several ways to use this software with Mac.
If you have a PowerPC system (G3/G4/G5) use Virtual PC. On a Intel based Mac you should use parallels or maybe Darwine. |
