I’ve never tried crossover but I may have to give it a shot. On my personal Mac, I simply use VMWare Fusion and a Windows 7 VM to run Toad. I also run a Linux VM with my Oracle XE DB. Seems odd running a Mac running Linux and Windows in VMs but it works.

Macbook Toad for Oracle using Crossover
Thread created by james.ritterbusch
I tried the Toad for Mac edition and find it woefully underpowered. On my Windows 7 system, I pay for the Toad for Oracle Xpert including the DB Admin module, and I need the full functionality of that version.
I found the interesting blog post here http://www.toadworld.com/products/toad-for-oracle/b/weblog/archive/2012/04/25/run-toad-for-oracle-on-mac-os-x that says I can run the Windows version of Toad for Oracle by utilizing the Crossover software.
However, the article is somewhat dated, and I wonder if it is still accurate for Toad for Oracle version 12.6, and Mac OSX El Capitan?
Or if anybody has any more updated or better solutions, I would appreciate to learn of those.
Thanks
JimR
