Thanks for taking the time to write. I should have written more about what I had done. I have tried the OpticBook Mac driver, but it was very primitive and could not interface with OCR software. It is strictly a page at a time, and not practical for large books; fine for a couple of pages, if it works. I then went tried Parallels at one time, and Fusion another, but it slowed to a crawl on the Internet side (for uploading work to the volunteer site) and that just wasn't cutting it. So, I finally went to Boot Camp, but having to restart multiple times a day was just making me crazy. So, I am hoping to find a Mac solution ideally. Does that help some? I am a full time caregiver for my husband and daughter, so I need things to run fluidly and my Macs just do...
