How To Run Altium Designer on a Mac M1 or M2 ?

Here's a short video on how to run Altium Designer on your Mac M1 or M2. It has been working fine for me to do this using Parallels Desktop.
Hope this helps if you want to do the same thing!

Do you have any large projects you can show to demonstrate performance? Thanks for the video btw!

[@sentineo]

sure, have a look at the other vieo's on this channel, all of them are on M1 Mac. Works very smooth for me.

How is the 3D performance and how well does it handle with complex designs on multiple 4k monitors? I rushed and bought the last gen Intel macbook pro in September 2021 to avoid issues with M series and Altium (as was reported back then by some people). This is my 3rd Intel macbook pro. In a couple of years, would like to upgrade to M series if all the SW issues for EE have been resolved, but looks promising already!

Do you recommend me to use a MacBook M3 for work in embedded firmware engineer intern? Could I use c/c++, Python, proteus?

[@caioluizz]

What configuration does your macbook have?

[@sentineo]

This is a M1 macbook pro 24GB RAM (8 core CPU and 10 core GPU I think). 16GB is assigned to windows and 4 cores.

Do you know how to use crossover to install and run Altium designer ?

[@sentineo]

No, sorry 😞
