CodeWeavers released their second beta of CrossOver Mac yesterday. I downloaded beta 2 and have been running it without noticing any changes from Beta 1. In Quicken 2006 Premier Home and Business, the same problems that existed in Beta 1 still exist.
- When Quicken opens, it doesn’t properly draw any screens. If you click on an account, it opens in a small window in the upper left hand corner of the Quicken Window. If you move your moust to the edge of the window and drag it slightly to increase the size, it resizes to fill the window correctly.
- If I open a report, such as the Capital Gains report, I can’t click on anything anymore. It is like a modal dialog box has opened somewhere but it is hidden. At this point, I have to exit CrossOver completely and restart CrossOver, then Quicken.
- Vision 2000 still doesn’t run.
- I’ve done some preliminary testing with MS Office 2003 (Word and Excel only) and there appears to be no change from Beta 1
I will probably uninstall Visio 2000 and try to install it with this beta and see if that solves the problem. However, my primary need is for Quicken to run on my Macbook and secondary purpose for pre-ordering CrossOver Mac is for Visio to run.
Here are a few screenshots of Quicken 2006 PH&B.
