Wineskin Winery Mac Os
Microsoft Office is a de-facto standard. The discontinued version for OS X has an appalling interface, is not very interoperable and lacks the Ribbon interface. The iWorks is not a good solution if most of the people you work with use .docx, and ppt and .xsl.
Office 2010 and 2013 are not well supported on wine (just now a preview with 2013 was shown on wine on linux). So Office 2007 is used.
Gcenx for maintaining the Wineskin project and Wine engines Last edited by Technocoder 2020-10-18T21:16:18+00:00, edited 12 times in total. Having macOS issues? The version of Wine we’ll be using is Wineskin Winery, which works out of the box with little to no complications. Wineskin wraps the windows application that you want to run in a package that can operate as a Mac application. So, Wineskin creates a wrapper for your Windows apps that can run in OS X. Oct 06, 2020 Wineskin Winery turns Windows programs and games into Mac OS X apps. Wineskin Winery is a porting tool to make Windows programs/games into Mac OS X apps. GUI building, made for ease of use and customization.
My criteria: how well it works, how well it integrates, can it print directly, can it use the keyboard layout of the OS X.
All the softwares shown are wrappers of wine.
Wineskin Winery Mac Os Sierra
- installation wasn't easy
- when installing office, it downloads .net, fonts and stuff automatically
- printing on an HP printer (first install the printer on the mac, then it appears AFAIK only if default drivers in windows exist) - prints, but crashes the app.
- couldn't find a way to add new keyboard layouts
- bad support
- open with - no actual info, couldn't make it work
- MS Word works pretty good
- Excel took a while to open a 5mb file
- Overall: works but not sufficient for me
- straight forward interface.
- presets available
- most of the built-in installers (IE6, Opera, Firefox...) don't work. Some of them do.
- Uninstaller on the Q&A page. Doesn't work. You can delete stuff manually.
- Installing MS Office fails for some reason (Please insert volume 'OFFICE12' (needed for package 'office2007pro')). I don't have a solution:
- Overall: I can't make it work
Wineskin Winery Mac Os Mojave
- installation is not very straight-forward
- fails to install - most of the offices tested fail to initialize, one started but didn't finish
- no presets on microsoft office - probably that's why it doesn't work
- Overall: can't make it work at all
How To Update Wineskin On Mac
- installation with presets
- Has a preset for Microsoft Office 2010 that works.
- Supports the keyboard layout of the host.
- Sees printers installed with the host (I don't know if drivers are needed).
- 'Open with' works by default.
- Overall: unfortunately the only one that works fine.
