Mac Version

#1

Post by Steven Hutchings »

Good morning I am a new user an my preferred platform is Apple Mac, I downloaded the software as part of the purchase of my new Altair Hypercam 295c Pro TEC camera, but was very disappointed to find that the Mac version of the software does not have the Altair camera drivers yet. But the windows version does !

When will this be rectified
As my free 1 year subscription is ticking away now!

Hi,

SharpCap is a Windows only application and we don't have any intention of making a Mac version (or even a Linux version) in the future. Some people do use it on their Mac computers by using either BootCamp to boot Windows or 'Parallels' or other virtual machine software to run a copy of Windows inside MacOS. The BootCamp option seems to work more reliably, but is obviously more intrusive on the setup of your Mac.

Cheers, Robin
