An application to transfer .exe files to .app?

If you are developing a software and need it to be crossplatform, there are several tools which some developers in this forum may be able to help you better with.

If you have an existing application that is in .exe only format, not made by you, you can try to use one of the emulators on this page, or search engines on it to find equivalent software made for the Mac, or contact the application developer requesting for a Mac version of their software to be made.

Window's .exe applications cannot run on Macs. There is no such thing as a conversion free or otherwise.

If you need to run Window's applications either get a Window's computer or get a Window's emulator for the Mac (there are several around, none are free, and you'll find them at www.versiontracker.com.)

If on the other hand you are trying to open self-extracting archives made on a Window's machine you may have some success purchasing Stuffit Deluxe, also not free.

Macromedia Shockwave plugin should be built-in to Safari. If it isn't, you can download it from here:

As for PHP files, you need to install PHP for Mac OS X:

Strange, maybe you set your browser not to accept cookies or something which lets it know you are using a Mac. It always comes up for the Mac for me. Here is the direct link to the download dmg file:

http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/shockwave/default/english/macosx/10.1.0.11/ ShockwaveInstallerSlim.dmg

Control -> mouse click a document with that file type, and select Open With -> Other... Then select the application you want to have it open with and use "Always Open With".

wyrmmage,

No such conversion application exists.

If you explain what you are trying to accomplish perhaps someone may be able to help you.

;~)

Use the Mac to download the files. Which link is not working for you?

Good to hear, thank you for letting us know!
