Installing Wine on Apple Mac

Embird Embroidery Software Tutorial

This tutorial explains how to install the Wine application on an Apple Mac. This application allows you to run Embird (a native Windows application) on an Apple Mac computer. The XQuartz application must be installed before installing Wine.

Note: Please note that the applications XQuartz and Wine for Apple Mac are not developed nor supported by the Embird team. Also, because Embird is a native Windows application, it is not guaranteed that all portions of the program will run smoothly in Wine on an Apple Mac.
