Sorry to disappoint you but 

If I  were running PXLSoft I would have produced a native Mac version of Essentia before the Windows version.

The Apple Mac is the preferred machine for photographers and graphic artists - and with good reason.  And its users deserve somethng more than Apple's own  i-Photo or Aperture.

PXLSoft are working on the Mac version - but there is no release date yet.  If you drop me a note on the contact sheet below I will let you know when the Mac version is available.

Parallel Machine operation

PXLSoft does not support dg Photo Art Essentia working in a parallel Windows/Mac-OS evironment.  We have found that about 75% of customers report that they have used it and it works.  But others have been not so lucky.  The Mac does not recognise the dongle (there may be other problems too).

Should you purchase the Windows version for use on a Mac and it does not work, then you have the choice of:

1.   Upgrading to dg Foto Art Gold for Mac for the straight difference in price (see below) or

2.  Returning the disk, dongle and the original packaging to us.  We will make a restocking charge of £30 as we cannot re-sell the product as 'unused'.  If you wish to exercise this option please contact us by e-mail

Meanwhile the only thing I can offer is the Windows version to run it as windows-on-mac.
