Post by preachercop »

I'm new to theWord for Mac and I don't know how to get my underlines and highlights from my windows computer to the new Mac.
Can anybody show me how?

Locate the file my.bhls.twm. This is in your 'Personal files' folder (the folder can be located from Help->About->File locations.

Copy this file from one computer to the other,

Upgrading to latest version on a Mac

Post by preachercop »

Your help on my last post was terrific. I'm up and running.

Now, I'm running theWord under Wineskin on Yosemite. I want to upgrade to the latest version of theWord but I don't know how.

(Is there a project afoot for a Mac version of theWord?)

Thanks for your help.

Go to:

Code: Select all

~/Library/Application Support/Wine/prefixes/theWord/drive_c/Program Files/The Word
and replace the files with latest beta (get from http://www.theword.net/files/beta)
