Since the Mac has MS Office 2011 for the Mac, and Powerpoint is in the suite, and Articulate is an add-in to Powerpoint, it makes sense to have Presenter for the Mac! What are our chances of seeing this software come to market? I believe that with all the recent Mac purchases (market share is rising every day), this might be a high growth product for Articulate.
What do you think? Any possibility that Presenter for the Mac could add a publish option to Publish HTML5? That must have everyone who owns an iPad drooling!!!
I know this is not the answer you're looking for, but we have not announced plans for native Macintosh versions of our software to enable authoring on non-Windows systems. However, we do have customers who successfully use our products with Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or Bootcamp for Macintosh:
Well, I have a question but If I install Parallels on my mac the will I have Windows installed as well or do I have to install Windows mac version on my machine? or 2 version of windows, one for my mac and other for the Parallels? I have MacBook but I want to start working with Articulate and I do not have windows programs on my machine.
If you install windows in bootcamp you can also use this in parallels. If you do not plan to bootcamp then you would need to install Windows in Parallels.
Great !! Thank you so much for the replies, I have decided to follow the online tutorials from Articulate online and as soon I need to start working with articulate then I will arrange a laptop that has Windows.
I use to work with Articulate a few years ago and now I am coming back to the E-Learning area.
I thought I might "refresh" this thread to see if there are any "new" plans for developing the Articulate 360 suite for the Mac (and apologies if this is covered somewhere in a different thread). We are currently using RISE and would love to take advantage of the other Articulate tools.
Are there any options "in process" other than Bootcamp, Parallels, etc.?
Thanks for checking in! We aren't currently developing Articulate 360 for Mac. It's been a popular topic, and we will continue tracking customer requests. If our team decides to reroute, I'll update you in this discussion.

Regarding HTML5 output, we do plan on adding that feature to our next product called Storyline. For more information, see the link below:

Scott, studio, works great in parallels
I second Parallels
I'll third that. . . works like a dream on Parallels, especially if you have a good processor on your Mac.
Well, I have a question but If I install Parallels on my mac the will I have Windows installed as well or do I have to install Windows mac version on my machine? or 2 version of windows, one for my mac and other for the Parallels? I have MacBook but I want to start working with Articulate and I do not have windows programs on my machine.
Thanks in advance for the help.
