RB51 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 You will have to search around on the forum but I'm pretty sure that the RM software is unsupported in the Mac environment but that it will run with the Parrallel set-up. Probably spelled incorrectly but ..... R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choralc Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 If you can get a MS OS - I have XP - there are two ways of getting RM working on a Mac. All Intel-based Macs have the ability to boot up with Windows. Bootcamp is the Apple software assistant that will get it loaded. The other method has already been mentioned - Parallels. I too have a dislike for anything MS but years ago bought a cheap laptop with Vista on board for a specific reason. It has become my dedicated RM machine after RM Spt turned off all the ACER enhancements. Mac for everthing elseI Although, I do envy those with huge touchscreens :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Try Parallel (and spelt)I'll accept Parallel - but I think you'll find "spelled" is an acceptable past participle. R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishmanoz Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Just on the other half of the question, Select will not work with RM, only Elite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graskie Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 "Spelt" is apparently chiefly UK. "Spelled" is USA and Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpjallan Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thanks guys,Thats a shame as i really dislike windows and microsoftYeah, so do I.I have been running Railmaster Using VMware Fusion for years with very few problems. I prefer that to Parallels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choralc Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 rpj, just to clarify for fineboy who hopefully may come back to check his thread after it got a little sidelined re spelling and grammer that VMWare Fusion does not actually need a MS Operating System?
