I have tried to install TC5 onto my mack using Crossover install. I am not optimistic as crossover doesn't list TC5. Do I have to install a VM to get round this and if so, what do you recommend?

I would recommend either (boot camp [fastest most reliable], Parallels [my choice, I have used it for years with XP, Win 7, Win 8, and now 8.1], and my employer’s choice [Virtualbox]). They all work.I know of people that have used Fusion without issue in the past, I have no recent testimony on it. I put my money on Parallels. I like the convenience of having both machines up and running at the same time.

Most TCS Mac users are installing it under Parallels or other Win emulators – search the FM forums for “Mac” and you should hit a number of different configs.
