Introduction

This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to install Meeting Schedule Assistant (MSA) on a MacBook Air M1 using CrossOver. These instructions were kindly shared by one of our users and are designed to help others get MSA running smoothly on macOS.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Download and Install CrossOver
    Purchase CrossOver from their official website and install the .dmg file on your MacBook.
  2. Start Installing .NET Framework
    After installing CrossOver, click the Install button (with the plus sign). Search for Microsoft .NET Framework.
  3. Choose the Correct Version
    Select version 4.8.2, which has a 4.8-star rating and is marked as Runs great.
  4. Understand CrossOver Bottles
    In CrossOver, every application runs in a separate environment called a bottle. You'll create a new bottle for this installation.
  5. Install Microsoft .NET Framework
    Once you've found the .NET Framework in the CrossOver database, begin the installation process.
  6. Proceed Through Installation Dialogs
    Click Next through the dialogs. When prompted to restart, choose Restart later.
  7. Repeat Restarts During Installation
    The installer may run through a few versions of the .NET Framework (usually about three). Continue choosing Restart later when prompted.
  8. Prepare to Install MSA
  9. After .NET is fully installed, proceed to install the latest version of Meeting Schedule Assistant.
  10. Download MSA
    Visit the Meeting Schedule Assistant website to get the latest version.
  11. Install MSA in the Same Bottle
    Install MSA inside the same bottle used for .NET Framework. You may want to rename the bottle after installing MSA.
  12. Locate and Install the MSA Executable
    In the .NET Framework bottle, click Install Here, then locate the MSA .exe file you downloaded. Proceed through the installation prompts.
  13. Use Windows 10 32-bit for Compatibility
    Ensure the bottle is configured as Windows 10 32-bit, which provides the best compatibility with both .NET Framework and MSA in CrossOver.
  14. Run MSA on Your MacBook Air M1
    Once installed, you should be able to run MSA (32-bit) successfully on your MacBook. Remember to regularly check for updates to the software and schedules.

Final Notes

  • These instructions may be subject to changes in future versions of CrossOver or MSA.
