rodeoshooter Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I have a client who wants a screen saver and he is a MAC user. Can pix2exe make the screen saver for a MAC user? If so how do we get them to recognize it? If not any recommendations?Thanks,Al Berger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Beckham Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 PTE will not work in a Mac, but that option is being worked on as we speak. I suspect it will be some time before that happens.In the meantime, you could buy a PC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri.R Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 And then, at the time that P2E for the Mac will be published, I suppose thousands of PC's will be for sale!?!Henri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conflow Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Henri and Al,I just read your query ~ You do not differentiate between ''MAC PCs' and the latest 'iMAC PC Range.MAC-PCs will run PTE through an additional Program called "Parallels".Its not the best solution but definitely Pte4.49 will run through this. Pte.5xx I dont know, I haven't tried it.If your Client has an 'iMAC-PC' ~ PTE will run on its Dual-Platform underWindows provided it qualifies in terms of Memory and Processor Speed.Hope this is of some help.Brian.Conflow.

The customer has the MAC and I can't talk him into going with a PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since he bought a Screen Saver for only $12 I don't want to go out and spend $$$ to get a program that will make Screensavers for the MAC. Interesting isn't it, MAC users claim their platform it graphically advanced over the PC but you can't find any programs for under $500 that allow you to make a jpg into a MAC screensaver. Hmmmmmmm I think I will stay with the PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conflow Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 RodeoshooterAL,How right you are !!....Now here below is some 'info' which you could pass on to your MAC Client.Get him to 'Log-on' to the Apple Mac Forum ~ there are 23 sections in this Forum and the sectionhe wants is the 3rd down the list..."Digital Lifestyles"...everything to do with Mac Photography andScreen-Savers etc...all he has to do is post a query for 'Screensavers'.

Guest Auser Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 No need to spend $500. Try iScreensaver. It will turn videos and jpegs into screensavers for $29. Fotomagico (slideshow app) for $49 or $129 (Pro). Or Pulpmotion for $49. So I dont know if your being funny when you say you can find something for under $500 or not. But a search will turn up many apps capable of doing what you want for under $100 let alone $500. And iScreensaver can make them for PCs to. With iScreensaver you can make him a great slideshow using P2E and then convert it.Of course these are Mac apps so you will obviously need a Mac to use these apps.Hope this helps.
