PC or Mac
Hi all. I am going to try to make this short and to the point as I can. My PC just went dead on me about 5 minutes ago. I know that I was able to use CoPilot on my PC but I am wondering if it will work on the Mac that my husband wants to get or will I need to get another PC. Has anyone used CoPilot on a Mac before? If anyone knows and can let me know that would be great. I would like not to have to get two laptops but if I have to then that is what I am going to do.

You can use it on a mac running windoze. You can't use a windoze emulator like Parallels, you have to use Boot Camp and restart your mac as a PC in order for it to read the data from the PDM.
You'll need a copy of Windoze to install on your mac but hey at least it's still a mac most of the time ;>) -

I installed it and opened the application using CrossOver. (Crossover allows you to run some windows programs with out purchasing Windows system software.)
However when I attached a usb cable (not the one included in the starter kit) to the PDM, the PDM froze and lost its data. I haven't had a chance to try again but as soon as I do I will let you know how of if it worked. -

Does it allow you to boot your mac in Windoze? Several of us tried many different emulators all of us discovered that using boot camp and starting your mac in windoze to be the only way it would work.

Well I tried again. The software runs but unfortunately plugging in the cable causes a PDM error that requires a hard reset thus losing all the PDM settings.
I wonder if it is just my setup or if others would have the same results. -
