What else can I help you with?
Will revit architecture work on an apple computer?
AutoDesk's Revit is currently only available for the Windows operating system so the Mac will need to be running Windows to use the software. AutoDesk have produced a guide for using Revit on a Mac (See links below).
Is there a program similar to SimPE but for Mac?
Nope.
How can you use 3ds max and revit on mac?
You will have to use Boot Camp or if your computer is fast enough, you can use a virtualization software, such as VirtualBox, VMware Fusion, or Parallels. Any alternative like WINE or Crossover will not work. Alternatively, you can use a 3ds Max alternative Maya which is also made by Autodesk.
Is there a program similar to mac pages?
Yes there is; Microsoft Word.
Is Mac is competitable for Maya?
Yes, Autodesk Maya is capable running on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux operating systems.
Where can one find more information about Autocad for Mac?
Information about Autocad for Mac computers can be found JTB World online. Another website that contains information about Autocad for Mac is Autodesk.
'When a Mac is turned on what program is automatically launched?
The Finder is the program that is automatically launched when a Mac is turned on.
Can you download Paint on a Mac?
Yes and no. Paint, developed by Microsoft Corporation is not available for mac, but a program called Paintbrush, is similar, and is available for free download. Google it. it's awesome. Hope it helps, and hope you enjoy
Can i install a PC program on a mac book pro?
No, they are not compatible operating systems. You need a mac version of the program.
How do you delete file without moving in to trash in mac systems?
To do it from a command line: Open a Terminal window and use the unix "rm" command. To do it with a GUI: Download and install the muCommander program (very similar to Windows Explorer, but for the Mac).
Does AutoCAD works in an Apple Computer?
This question is answered a million times elsewhere, but here it goes again: Autocad can be used on a Mac laptop via BootCamp and Windows install (or similar trick). It can not be used directly with the Mac OS. You should expect an inferior performance than with a non-Mac laptop with the same configuration and be advised that Autodesk does not support this type of install. If Autocad is your main work tool, you should stay away from Mac. Try instead the new Lenovo Thinkpad w500, or the upcoming Dell Precision series (available in 2 months) or the HP 8530w. All are (or will be) equiped with the new Intel Montevina CPU and with workstation type GPU which are designed towards Autocad/Photoshop/Maya/etc. softwares. I'm assuming your budget will permit this type of laptops (you are asking about Mac...). If you want cheaper machines, look for the Lenovo Thinkpad t61p (it was discontinued yesterday, 5th August) which is a very good option and should have nice prices ($1500 for a maxed out laptop), or the HP 8510w, or the dell precision m series. For further information I advise you to ask this question at the autodesk forum.
What is a good architecture program that will run on Windows 7 or Mac OS X?
By far, the most commonly used architecture design software is Autodesk AutoCAD. Autodesk products were meant to be used on Windows systems, but very recently it was announced that various Autodesk software will start to be made for OsX as well. Even for existing Autodesk software that isn't made for OsX, you can buy software such as "Fusion" or "Parallels" which allow you to run Windows virtually through your Apple. Also, Apples being sold today (and going a few years back) have the ability to be started in "PC Mode" - which means you can run CAD on your apple if you have installed it with Windows (in addition to OsX). Whether or not Autodesk products are "good" can be debated; however, ideal or not - it has a monopoly on the architecture industry and absolutely should be in the skill set of any young new architect or interior designer. More recently, Autodesk has released versions of CAD that have increased levels of specificity and commands tailored to the process of designing a building. For example, it contains a tool palette that has frequently used objects such as doors, steel beams, bricks, commonly used symbols, and various finishes (gypsum board) that can be easily inserted into a drawing. This is called Autodesk AutoCAD Architecture. AutoCAD Architecture is extremely similar to AutoCAD. If you can use one, you can use the other. The future of architecture and interior design lies in "Building Information Modeling" via software such as Autodesk Revit Architecture. This software creates a 3D model made of actual objects used in the industry, rather than a group of 2D lines arranged in such a way to look like something. For example, in Revit, the steel joist that supports a roof or a floor level is an actual steel joist. If you move from section view to some other sectional view it does not have to be redrawn - the 3D model understands it is a joist and represents it as such in all views. In 2D classic "AutoCAD" you would have to draw many lines in such a way as to take on the appearance of a joist. To the computer, it is still a lump of meaningless lines. If you move around the view, the group of lines would all have to be redrawn. This may not seem like much - but it ripples through and has profound impacts on the accuracy and information contained in the files you create.
