Wondering if it would work for nt as well? If you give them enough bucks, they will put it on their priority list. Please have your developers have a go at it, should be easy to figure out how to get it to install, at least. You will have to register, but its free and worth it if enough do it.īeing software developers themselves, I'm sure CodeWeavers would see a big opportunity to make some $$$ from Mac people (their application is very reasonably priced), and it would be a very cheap way of satisfying Mac users, too, compared to a rewrite. If you have an unexpired version of CrossOver (you can download a demo) you can "vote" for some attention on getting NT functional by going to that link above and on the right side in the " Rankings" box, click the Vote for me link. In the only forum entry for NT on Crossover's Forum, the writer describes the same experience. I don't know what to do from there, it does the same thing every time. I just tried installing NT 6.5 using Crossover and the installation quits at the beginning. I've tried Parallels, and with 4GB of RAM and no other app open on my laptop, its only marginally OK.Ĭurrently CodeWeavers has a listing for compatibility of NinjaTrader 6.5, which it shows as "untested": Currently using emulation software like VMWare's Fusion or Parallels Desktop is too much of a resource hog for anything but the very fastest machines with loads of RAM. This would be a huge thing for Mac owners (like me). Thanks.Instead of completely rewriting NinjaTrader for Mac OSX, I suggest a much quicker way to get it working (although a bit of a workaround) is to work with CodeWeaver software to make it work in their Crossover software that adapts Windows applications so they can run directly in Mac OSX, no Windows installation needed. If the latter, that would make me rather nervous! Has anyone made backups on the Mac/Crossover combination? If so, I'd be grateful for an idiot's guide on how to do it. When I close Crossover does the updated project file automatically save to that same drive or does Crossover keep it somewhere within the app? If the former then it would be a simple matter of making a backup copy regularly from the drive. When I installed Crossover I opened the project from an external hard drive. I don't understand where the GEDCOM files of my projects reside, nor how to back them up so that I can recover my data in the event of a disc failure. I eventually got it all running properly although I'm not entirely comfortable with the setup. I am currently using the trial version of Crossover (I think it's version 20 now) on Big Sur. I wasn't going to take this route but there isn't a Mac specific app that comes near FH6 (IMO). Like others posting on this thread I am trying to run FH6 on my newly acquired Mac. frequent delays in refreshing/updating the screen when switching between views. So far, the current Beta Version seems to be performing better for me (more smoothly) than 19.1, which sometimes seemed to have problems with Family Historian, i.e. One final caveat: You may wish to delay upgrading for a short while, as Crossover 20 (Beta) is currently in testing and past experience suggests that the final Version 20 will probably be released in September, unless any really serious problems are identified in testing, as they do tend to be very close to the final version before releasing beta versions for wider user testing. If you don't do it in that order there is a possibility that the MacOS upgrade will auto-remove/disable any 'non-compatible 32-bit software'. It really needs to be Crossover first to overcome the problems with 32-bit software and that will update the structure of any existing Family Historian application and also any other Windows apps you have installed in Crossover, for compatibility with the MacOS (Catalina) upgrade. Normally, I would update MacOS first and then existing software but, as no Crossover version prior to 19.x is compatible with MacOS Catalina that approach doesn't work particularly well.
