HFClassicalAcademy Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I had already started using HST earlier this year and was really starting to love it. But...I've since gotten a new computer and switched to a Mac (which I LOVE!). But now I can't use HST on it! Has anyone come across anything like HST for use on Macs? I appreciate your help!

Spryte Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I haven't used HST, so I don't know everything it offers, but I am a Mac girl, and have spent a ridiculous amount of time hunting for planning software. DH toyed with the idea of developing something for me, but that sounded like so much extra work for him - I really wanted something simple, something already in existence. I tried Skedtrack, but did not love it. I loved the functionality, but not the look of it. Lots of people love it though. And then... I found scholaric.com. I think I must have read about it here (?). Love it. Easy to use, very inexpensive, and it's more intuitive, more like a real planner. There's a free trial period, if you want to check it out. It's an online planner, which I didn't think I wanted, but it's worked out beautifully. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz I use HST+ on my Mac. We installed Virtual Box so we could have a Windows computer open inside the Mac. Then we installed Windows inside Virtual Box. I purchased/downloaded HST+ using the internet browser inside Windows. Every time I open it, I go to the Windows side (or the Dark Side, as DH calls it :lol:). The only drawback is it makes everything run slower, so I try to be using just the Mac side or just the Windows side at one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehogs4 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I found a teacher's planner app in my app store, and it looks fantastic, but it's for school teachers so I was hesitant to fork over money for something that may not translate well into home school planning. :glare: hmmm...what to do? It is probably way more than I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Targhee Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I've fooled around with Planbook, which is designed for teachers in classrooms. You may be able to work it for your needs. I'm finding I like paper planners best at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
