Mac Pro / Windows 7

Hello,

Last December I purchased a Mac Pro ( 12-Core ). I have just set it up. I had Windows 7 Professional installed. I have always used Norton on my Macs. Which product should I purchase for my computer now that it has Windows 7 installed? I know nothing about Windows. That's why I had it installed. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Mac Pro / Windows 7

You need to install the version of Norton for the OS you are running. If you are running Windows 7 only on your Mac Pro, install Norton for Windows. If you are running both Mac OS and Windows, you will have to install the Mac version for protection when running Mac OS and the Windows version when running Windows. 

 

I don't have any dual-booting devices, but I have two Macs and two Win7 computers. I install Norton AntiVirus on all four. Both versions work similarly, so your shouldn't have a lot of problems figuring out Norton on the Windows platform.
