Hi Linda, that's a lot of work! Don't think Igor like that, as far as we know him, so let's hope he applied the right solution... Regards, Henri.

Hi Linda, On my (2008) Macbook Pro I can change using the graphical card or not (better for battery-life). For PtE the card must be switched on! You can do that via the Preferences panel.. Regards, Henri.

Hi Igor, can we use this sharpness control for the videoclips too? Regards, Henri.

Hi Sandro, I think you are still trying to make a file for Windows. The zipp- file you are talking about is to have a compressed back-up of your show; all files with the extension .exe(dot exe) are for Windows computers.... You have to look in the menu under Create to make that file for your Mac, and that don't have to be a mp4! Regards, Henri.

Hello Tom, I think of the two PtE is the better app for making slideshows.. But can you please tell us more about the capabilities of Aperture and differences with PtE in producing a slideshow? regards, Henri.

Hi Tom, thank you very much, and yes it helps. However, some of this facts I found on the net too, but some solutions worked out to be incorrect, or too much trouble. For instance, to call again and again for a licanse I allready have and then write down a number of 50 digits?! You know Tom, it's all so very 'notMacintosh'. I think that after all I prefer to start the Mac again with the option key when I want to work with PtE and use Bootcamp only. And no connection to the internet to avoid viruses of course... But it's a pity Igor had to announce this delay in the development of PtE for Mac. Regards, Henri.

Hi folks, last two months I spend my time figuring out the (im)possibilities of working with PtE on the Mac with VMware and Bootcamp. First to say that Windows OS on the Bootcamp partition (I tried XP sp2 and Vista) is doing his duties the same way as on my Windows PC: it's working very good and seamlessly with Pictures to Exe 5.6! No complaints here. After installing VMware v.3 (using the Windows OS on Bootcamp) I was able to produce some not too complicated AV shows; pan- and zoom-movements are OK most of the time. Kudo's here for VMware to supply a graphical engine capable of running PtE for simple shows, and no problems with MS Office and so on. I myself use a lot of 3-D movements and/or transitions and in my experience, for more complicated shows, I prefer to use the Bootcamp partition! But again, for not too complicated work, VMware is doing well. But there is a more serious handicap; in Bootcamp I had after 30 days to activate my Windows OS, so I did. After returning to VMware I did the same here. But then, after a while, I wanted to work with PtE on Bootcamp, and I had to activate again! After a lot of trial and error it worked out that the Windows OS is 'seeing' another computer with VMware; after all very logical because VMware had installed its own engine, so Windows is 'seeing' a new 'hardware'computer saying that I have to install a brandnew version of Windows for VMware.... In the meantime I've read on other forums that this is more or less a known issue, but I don't like that. I don't like that at all! After all I have one computer, with the same hardware, a legal version of Windows and VMware(or Parallels, for that matter), and then I have to pay twice for Windows? No way..... I like to read your experience and/or comments. Regards, Henri.

I agree with thedom, but also like to know why the wnsoft-team didn't make it default... Must be a reason; or not? Henri.

Hi Igor, I'm very happy to see this progress in video! Can you please post this demo in a version for iPad? Thanks again, regards, Henri.

Hi Daniel, it indeed is impossible to play a exe-file on the Mac OS; exe-files are for Windows-pc's. But if you have the Luxe version of PtE you see in the menu a command to create a PtE-show for Mac computers; that works OK for the Mac OS. regards, Henri.

If you have the 'de Luxe version' you'll see in the menu a command to create a slideshow for iPad; it works fantastic, just like making a dvd of your shows! Regards, Henri.

OK, thanks again, regards, Henri.

Hello Crossfade, Thanks for your quick reaction! Btw, did you have some special reason to choose for VMware working with PtE? regards, Henri.

Hi folks, I've read that Parallels nowadays is capable of coping with the graphical demands of applications like PtE v.6.5. I'm using Bootcamp with XP for Pte now, so I hope somebody can answer some questions: 1. Are the graphical capacities of Parallels indeed better than say, 2 years ago? 2. Can I use Parallels with XP, and Bootcamp with XP, on the same Mac , being the same startup-disk? 3. In that case, is there an obligation to have 2 licences for XP? Thank you very much in advance, regards, Henri.
