Macdrive 7 Reviews
MacDrive 7 did exactly what I needed it to do. Problem Solved. MS Word 2002 opened the old Mac formatted file flawlessly. I have a USB Zip Drive, but my Vista computer won't recognize the Mac formatted disk. MacDrive 7 allowed me to read the old Zip drive and transfer all the old Mac files to a folder on my Vista machine's hard drive. I recently found that I needed to access one of my old Mac files, a MSWord document stored on a Mac formatted Iomega Zip Drive. In 1996 I changed jobs and went from using a Mac Powerbook to a Windows environment.
It should be zero stars, for what good is a program that won't install. Guess what. This went on punctuated by uninstalls and reinstalls for several days, until I finally called the manufacturer, who gave me an activation code. I did the install, but it wouldn't activate, saying the server could not be reached.
Even yet another uninstall and install did no good. I can only assume this software is so sloppily written that the disk it comes on is good for only three things: as a coaster, frisbee or clay pigeon. It STILL wouldn't activate. I bought this on the off chance I would ever see another Mac disk (it's been years).
Given the business I'm in (publishing) there's always a chance a client may for some reason want a Mac. Given that I had installed Dragon before it and the latest Acrobat after it, the problem wasn't on my end.
(but I still might just get a Windows Laptop). Yea, no if and's or but's about it - in that world of VMWear (as I am) you NEED this product. I was all ready to get rid of VMWear (and between you and me, I still might - really just buy a Windows laptop and save your self some headaches) but, with MacDrive 7 things are a thousand (even a million) times better.
They will sell you additional licenses for $10 each. However, it can be installed on just one computer. This easily installed program makes it simple for a PC to read files on a Mac formatted external hard drive. If you want to install on a second computer, contact MediaFour. It works fine.
It does what it is supposed to do, connect a PC to a Mac drive. Easy install, discovered the drive, made it available to my PC apps.
