Re: Flow code for MAC / Ipad
Hello Indana,
I believe we already have Flowcode users using mac hardware. To do this you need to set your mac up with a virtual windows machine and then Flowcode should run fine. I believe Flowcode can also run fine under Wine in Linux. Unfortunately we have no plans in the short term to support macs or linux directly.

Re: Flow code for MAC / Ipad
Ben is correct. Flowcode runs perfectly on any Intel Mac using either Bootcamp (free) or any version of Parallels and any version of Windows.
I'm using Windows 7, 64 bit and it works perfectly including the hardware side of things.
Just hold the "ALT" key when you plug a Matrix device in and the Mac assigns that to Windows from then on.
Personally if was programming Flowcode I would make it Mac compatible - not hard anymore with the X-Code compiler free from Apple with shared routines for Windows and Linux and x86 hardware because I already know of four Mac users who have switched to that version of mPLAB from Microchip - it's just a better version of the program...
