I run Windows XP, yes you need a copy of the Windows OS also. Easy to install you install Parallels first, then Windows

Not per se, but I can confim that it *does* work under Parallels.I just got a MacBook and installed Parallels with Windows XP. The recorder shows up fine, and transfers work great (i.e. just as it does on a PC). This isn't an ideal solution, but it sure beats hooking up the Olympus to the PC, downloading recordings, and then shuttling the recordings from the PC to my MacBook.

You will need to choose. There are 2 versions, one for Windows and one for Mac.

after installing parallels on your mac, you can then install a windows operating system (xp, vista, or 7). It will then have a full version of Internet Explorer.

I believe it is PC based only. It will work on Parallels on a MAC. I loaded it on a mac laptop that also had Parallels to run windows programs and this worked.

I also have a mac - just use Parallels or VMWare to run windows and do it from there. Or could boot Windows with bootcamp...

I had to install parallels and win xp. Not the most convient but works well:

parallels is basically a virtual machine, use boot camp with the 15" late 2013 retina's and you will get 4k @ 60hz, if your mac is older your sol for now. even the late 2013 15" retinas only play 4k @ 30hz, witch is un useable at this point,. only thing good at 30fps is videos, desktop is choppy at 30hz

I'm not sure either, because the system requirements are Windows XP, Vista Service Pack 2, and Windows 7. Doesn't mention anything about Mac OSx. You could try.

This is a full version... The difference between this one and the boxed version is that there is no Microsoft customer support include. As for installing on your MAC, yes this version will work. You can use Bootcamp that came with your MAC to dual boot or purchase and install Parallels which will allow you to run it virtually inside of OSX.

Yes. You will need to install Parallels and then install a Windows operating system (I would recommend Windows 7) and then you can install and run Windows applications like WordPerfect.

Really I can't say for sure because I have not install windows platform on my mac.

How did you get it to work under parallels? I have the same setup, macbook and parallels, but although the winows recognizes the olypmpus player, it will not recognize any of the wav files on it to download them.

the version on amazon of parallels doesnt even support games in windows, so I would recommend bootcamp. The new version of parallels (3.0) does support games, but you will experience much better gaming performance if you run windows from bootcamp

Also, give BootCamp a shot. It's a free download on the Apple website. The only downside is that you would have to dual-boot the Mac, which means, if you want to use the Windows apps, you would have to reboot your Mac into the Windows OS. I would recommend Parallels, but if $80 is not in the budget, BootCamp is the best alternative.

I returned it because I'm running W7 with bootcamp on a MacBook Air and it did not work - don't know about Parallels.

I am currently running the LC version of quicken on my Mac. The Mac version is lacking features. The way you do this is to install parallels desktop which is a program that allows you to install and run windows simultaneously with Mac OS. I am running windows 7. After installing windows you can install quicken and use your backed up file from windows on your Mac.
