VMware Fusion 4 [Old Version]

Fusion setup easy, works great, very happy. This was the easiest setup Ive ever had with a program like this. The only issue was when I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I had to upgrade to Fusion 5. Overall Fusion makes using Windows on a Mac as easy as running Windows on a PC. Ive never had a crash or problem.

If youre running MountAIN LION ON YOUR MAC, you need update 4.1.3 from the vmware site, its free and you can verify it with your purchased copy of fusion 4 key. Excellent product.

If you want to use VMware Fusion on OS X Mountain Lion (Mac OS X 10.8), you must update to the most recent version of VMware Fusion 4 available before upgrading your Mac to Mountain Lion.

I used this with a 2011 iMac for years. It is a way to access Windows from a Mac without rebooting into the Windows Bootcamp partition. It allowed Windows to run side by side with OSX, so you could have the best of both systems without a reboot. The downside was that if you updated the Mac OS, you often got hit with an upgrade charge from the software to be able to use it on the new OS. My current M1 Mac doesnt support VM Ware Fusion, which is unfortunate.

Ive been a Mac user since 2008 and basically never really run Windows except for the occasional tax or financial program. VM Ware Fusion takes care of that by letting my run windows in a virtual machine on my Mac without partitioning my drive for Boot Camp. Its a bit drive intensive, and isnt the fastest but gets the job done.

Can it get better? I dont know if it can :) Best tool I have used so far. So nicely it integrates windows apps inside dock, launching windows app, toggle between apps is so intuitive.

I was a very happy user of Fusion 3, but, have found VMWare Fusion 4 to be not as reliable or robust as version 3 was. Since upgrading, Ive had problems with my mouse cursor disappearing, as well as getting into a mode where my Mac-side Apps wont launch properly. The only thing that seems to fix this is closing Fusion and rebooting the host Mac. The problem is most likely to occur if Im doing other processor-or-disk-intensive work while booting a VM. (Which can take a while for Windows OSs.) I did not have these problems with Fusion 3.

This helps bring the stability of the OSX with the universality of windows. I like it. It is clean and straightforward...without too much fluff.

This product worked as advertised to enable most Windows apps to run on Mac OSX Lion. Its a bit complex to install, but once you get it working, most Windows apps will work.

I had trouble transferring by system and had to purchase another copy of windows because my Dell did not give me a copy... the main reason I am moving on to Mac. Other than that, product is working well. No complaints except my clock is not updating; something that I think is my problem...not fusion 4.
