Hey everyone, is there a way to play a ProShow Gold slideshow on a Mac? I thought I could do it with an .exe file, but, not being a Mac person (I don't even own a pair of Birkenstocks!), I didn't realize that wouldn't work. Any ideas/tips?

Todd, you may need to get something like VMWare Fusion or Parallels and run Windows within OSX.

You could save your Proshow slide show as a Quicktime movie which will play on a Mac.

All the hippies are wearing 'em. :biggrin: Gotta be a hippy to use an Apple computer, right?

Hip Hip Hip - I have a Mac AND a pony-tail!

Nice call to convert to Quicktime!

I have a Mac (and a PC), don't have enough hair left to grow a ponytail (wish I could), and listen to Metallica and Godsmack (and also Enya, The Oscar Peterson Trio, and Jethro Tull, among others :biggrin: ). If that's what you call a hippy---then I guess I are one! :cool: :wink:
