[QUOTE="PhoebeBean, post: 1753755, member: 391376"] I had been running my 2009 MacBook Pro in SnowLeopard until December 2016 when I upgraded to El Capitan and then Sierra. After this was complete I realised I could no longer launch my Vectorworks 2009. While I don't use Vectorworks very often I do use it occassionally, and don't want to spend the £2,000+ for the 2017 version when the 2009 is great for my needs. It was suggeted that I create a partition and install SnowLeopard on the partition and then put the Vectorworks 2009 onto this partition. I have done this (including ensuring I also install rosetta); and done all the Mac upgrades as advised but the Vectorworks 2009 will not install. It goes through the whole installation process, tells me to install the dongle, and then after this it tells me the installation has failed and gives me an installerlog.txt file which contains loads of code which means nothing to me. I do know other people who have done this successfully so it is driving me nuts that I can't seem to do it. Please help! [/QUOTE]
