Question: |
How can I run GTAP on a Mac?
|
Answer: |
Unfortunately there is no current way or support for running GTAP software natively on MacOS. If you have access to a Microsoft Windows license, there are a few options that would allow you to run Windows and subsequently .exe while using your Mac.
*Note that the Centrer for Global Trade Analysis has not used or tested any of these options, so it is on the user to explore and decide what works best.
1. Bootcamp for OSX - https://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ This option allows users to dual boot their Mac to run either Windows or MacOS, and requires users to partition their hard drive.
Options 2, 3 and 4 are virtual machines, allowing you to run on another computer while you are still working in OSX. 2. Virtual Box (Oracle) - https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads 3. Parallels Desktop (Parallels) - http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/ 4. VMWare Fusion (VMWare) - http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion.html
Option 5 translates commands from Windows to Mac so that you can run Windows software as if it were designed native to Mac.
5. CrossOver - https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover/ |
