photeko Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Hi all,I am starting a little project that might fail but at least worth a try since a lot of people would be happy running iBooks Author on VM ware.I know someone got iWorks08 to work without QE/CI by changing the value of the key SRFAcceleratedCanvas in Defaults.plist to false. I am hoping that this might be possible by editing iBooks Authors .plist files. I went through them looking for above mentioned but could not find it.Does iBooks initiate QE/CI by a different means? Any tip on what to look for or how to disable it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThinkpadFan Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I'm sorry to report to you that the level at which OS X applications are using QE/CI is growing more sophisticated each and every release. Why? Mostly due to the fact that common API elements are being accelerated by QE/CI through the OS since it eases the CPU load etc. Since an app running on a mac can expect this to be working (especially given the system requirements of OS X and its current releases) I don't think it'll get easier, but rather harder to ever get this working. Unless VMware Fusion ever gets to the level of virtualizing graphics so well that QE/CI works, it'll never work at an acceptable level in VMware Workstation. Your best chance will be to try one of the many bootloaders and dedicate a seperate partition to setup OSX on your PC/notebook and get QE/CI running there. Sorry to disappoint you. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
