I have Microsoft Office Suite on my Apple Mac and it operates really well. How can I add Microsoft Project?

RE: working on Apple Macs

Hi Sophie

At the moment Microsoft have not released a version of MS Project that will run on OSX (which is the operating system on an Apple Mac). One option that I have seen people use is to install virtualisation software on their Mac that lets then install and run Windows and MS project. Unfortunately the process of how to do this is outside the scope of this forum however you may wish to visit an Apple store and ask the advice of one or their representatives.

Do let us know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Keep constraining dates to a minimum

As far as possible avoid fixing the dates of your tasks. For example try to steer of clear dragging task bars in the Gantt chart to move them on the timeline or entering dates directly into the Start / Finish fields.

Date constraints such as these limit Microsoft Project's ability to automatically adjust your project whenever you add, remove or modify the duration of your tasks. Instead use the logic in your task dependencies that link your tasks to enable Project to calculate the start and finish dates for you.
