Running PC Study Bible on a Mac OSX
Yes, we hear there is a way to run PC Study Bible on the Apple Macintosh (Mac) and it works great. (See below.)
No, Biblesoft has not written a version of PC Study Bible specifically for the Apple Macintosh operating systems (OS). If you are currently running PC Study Bible through a Windows OS emulator on the Macintosh, any technical support through Biblesoft will be based on the Windows version you are using.
This article is not an endorsement of any product or company. However, we have learned from users that PC Study Bible will operate successfully with certain Windows OS emulators running on the Mac OS. Since Biblesoft doesn't support the Mac, these user reports/suggestions have not been verified or tested by Biblesoft.
So how do I run PC Study Bible on a Mac?
The Intel Macs have the speed for running PC Study Bible. Parallels software rather than Bootcamp is the best option for Intel-based Mac users since it allows for both operating systems to be running at the same time. This means cutting and pasting from PC Study Bible to a Mac program is easy. Parallels costs about $80, but the user must also have a copy of Windows meeting PC Study Bible technical requirements installed and operating as well, (e.g. Windows XP). Fusion is another product similar to Parallels, and is preferred by many users.
There have also been reports of PC Study Bible running successfully using WineBottler. See
