Iā€™ve tried to update the legend to the latest version 1.09 using the Mac version of the update. Every time I try and open the exe. Or any of the files it says Windows not supported by Mac, says check out the Apps to find a tool to work around this problem and when I try Iā€™m having no luck. Is it possible to update the Legend with an Apple computer? If so how. Please any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Apple will not run an EXE files...You need to run Parallels or Vmware on your Mac to run Windows to do the update...or but a cheapie Windoz laptop at BestBuy...

So, being old and stupid, here is a stupid question. Are you trying to update your Legend using a Mac computer or are you using an emulator on a different platform?

If you are using a Mac running 10.15 or later software and your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, the hardert part of the update is getting permission to open the updater in the unzipped file. As long as your Legend is working properly, the update is super easy. Most Macs do not need to even download the drivers linked to by Nokta Makro.

Check some of the pawn shops for a used laptop.
