[QUOTE="patricci, post: 544997, member: 43012"] I have many programs on my old PC which I want to use on my new Imac. I did buy Fusion so I can run my genealogy software but will deal with that later. 1 question is how to tell if the program will run on Mac? I have an external HD so I can copy to HD then copy to IMac. If the creator says it will run on Mac I can then transfer from the HD. Do I make a new folder? Where? The programs are have exe extension but Mac doesn't open them Can someone guide me with specific steps. I used PC's since DOS1 and there are so many differences. I have downloaded Neoofice so far. Took overnight as I am dialup. Also successfully using Thunderbird and Firefox. They downloaded to the desktop and is it a good place to keep them? Will get real messy. I like the dock and prefer to have program aliases?s there. [/QUOTE]
