Important

AccountEdge no longer supports G4 & G5 PowerPC's or OS X 10.4 (Tiger)

Starting with the release of AccountEdge 2012 products in the first quarter of 2012, neither G4 or G5 PowerPC Macs (with pre-Intel processors) nor OS X 10.4 Tiger will be supported. AccountEdge products will not operate in these environments.

This is particularly important for customers of AccountEdge Plus that use the Payroll facility, who will need to upgrade to the 2012 product in order to calculate pays for the 2012/2013 from 6 April 2012.

Customers who do not use the Payroll facility may delay their upgrade to AccountEdge 2012 until an appropriate specification computer be available.
