Running plug-ins on FileMaker Pro 8.5 and Intel Macs FileMaker Pro 8.5 for Mac OS X is a Universal Application and can run natively on PowerPC and Intel Macintoshes. However, when FileMaker is launched on Intel Macs, it only loads Universal plug-ins. It does not load PowerPC plug-ins. Therefore all plug-ins need to be converted to Universal plug-ins. Troi has already been preparing for these new Universal versions and we expect to release Universal versions of our other plug-ins soon. You can find more information on this on our FileMaker Pro 8.5 compatibility page: <http://www.troi.com/filemaker85.html>.
