Encore Pro on Mac Parallels

Post by ibthebest » Sun Dec 13, 2009 8:48 pm

I have been trying to load Encore Pro on my Mac via the Parallels program for PC programs. I am running XP Service Pack 3. When I try to load the program it fails to load the MSDE program and I get the usual message to contact support like so many others have reported. It will load the Encore Pro program by itself but not the data base program. Maybe it just won't run with shared or bridged networking.

Thanks

I use Encore Pro on my iMac with VM Ware (isn't even the latest version). It installed great and I have 3 people's information in the database. The only problem that I have occasionally is the card reader sometimes is finicky. I sometimes have to reinstall the driver or restart Windows (running XP SP3).

I could probably run it on Parallels too, but I had VM Ware ready to go on the iMac.

Use Boot Camp, it's so much easier.
