You can install the program in this fashion, but so far I have been unable to find a way to add the levels to the program without a CDRom. Any suggestions? Currently I'm using an external hard drive.

Yes it will! I put it on mine....but I also upgraded to 2gigs of memory before installing it. The hard drive on this puppy is 160 gigs...plenty of room and speed too!

Thanks, I'll look into how that is done. Also, can a flashdrive handle a program this large or only just files?

I do not have a MAC. I use windows & this program is wonderful. It is very user friendly. I would ask Rosetta Stone customer service this question.

Absolutely - I've used it with Rosetta Stone, it seems to work great. I like that it has the dial volume on the headset, so I can increase the volume easily if I'm having trouble hearing the Rosetta Stone prompts.

Win 7 Ultimate can handle 35 different languages, not sure if Spanish is among them, but I suspect it is, and the tendency is to make it possible to switch between versions with just a language kit.

Hi Leah... I am not sure what you are asking? This product has a description::Rosetta Stone Homeschool teaches your student a new language naturally, the same way they mastered their first language. Innovative solutions get them speaking new words, right from the start. Rosetta Stone Homeschool moves forward only when your student is ready--you set the schedule and your student drives the pace. Parent Administrative Tools allow you to formulate lesson plans, manage your student's progress and track their success. Audio Companion CDs let them reinforce the Rosetta Stone experience anytime, anywhere. My daughter hadn't taken spanish for about 4 years and used this to brush up so she could take spanish in college. She found this very helpful. She continues to use this at higher levels as well. Hope this answers your question.

Yes. You can install programs like any other computer with a thumb drive, external DVD drive, or by downloading them. I installed Rosetta stone from DVD and Microsoft office pro 2013 by downloading them.

From the Rosetta Stone website FAQs: "I purchased the Rosetta Stone Language Learning CD-ROM. How many computers can I install the software on?The software can be installed on up two computers for use for up to five family members"From http://www.rosettastone.com/technical-faqsSo you can have a total of five people set up to learn, and it looks to me like you can run rosetta stone on two computers, and to me it looks like you can run the software on both computers at the same time. I know you can set up more than one student because I have done it. I haven't tried running Rosetta Stone on more than one computer at a time, so I might have misinterpreted that part of their answer.

Thats is the online features like the one-on-one lessons with a teacher, or the different language games you can play to help you learn. The core Rosetta stone program will stay installed on you comp but you will have to subscribe to keep the online features.

Finally home! There are 3 settings: one for the phone, one for a mic, and one for music. Not sure if one of those work with Rosetta Stone....Find out from Rosetta Stone if you can use an USB headset. If so, this one will work. Hope this helps!

My daughter has been using this for over 2 years. We have never added other users so I don't have the answer to that question. My daughter took spanish for 3 years in school; 8th, 9th and 10th grade. She decided to pick it back up in college and Rosetta Stone helped her to bridge the two year gap. She also learned more than prior years in school. I would definately recommend this software.

I am not sure but I believe there would be a Rosetta Stone version for windows. The product is great. I would get in touch with RS directly and ask the question. It worked perfectly for me on a Mac.

Midway through I tried out Pimsleur and I found it a lot more practical than Rosetta Stone. Eventually I switched to group classes. In general I would say RS is great for a quick start and vocabulary, Pimsleur is great for practical phrases but in the end there's nothing like a real teacher.

The one that you purchase from Amazon is designed for PC use. However, Rosetta Stone just rolled out as a part of the online access, tablet and smartphone use. I do not know how well it works, since I have very limited bandwidth due to us living out in the sticks and I have to use a satellite system for net access. With my purchase from Amazon, I was able to access Rosetta Stone's online program (called "totale", I believe) that allows me to sync the online program with my desktop, so when I travel, I can use my laptop and the hotel bandwidth to access lessons and live tutoring sessions. Again, that's done on a PC, not a tablet.

1) I do not know about Italian language, but I gues this will be a standard issue as for any PC computer running under Windows.2) Simple games are OK. Games with a lot of graphics will probably not run at all or run slow. Email , pictures, skyping go remarkably well for such a low cost computer.

Your husband would have limited (3 month) access to the online benefits of Rosetta Total-e, which included virtual tutoring sessions and other interactive features. However, he would be able to continue using via the standard Rosetta learning program indefinitely.. Just without those other benefits. Do it! It's certainly worth it, and you can get a discount to extent the online features for a much longer period of time.

I don't know what Totale is, so I'm guessing it didn't come with this version. Also, unless you have had some French I think Rosetta Stone is hard.

I'm not sure. It supports many languages. I did not see anything exactly like that, but similar.
