The school version of the titles listed below are now considered “End of Life” in line with Microsoft and Apple’s Operating System life-cycles. We have provided suitable EdAlive Central web app migration pathways for each title. The last update of EdAlive’s installable software in 2010 ensured compatibility with the latest Windows 7 and Mac OSX 10.6 Operating Systems available at the time of release. Given that Microsoft and Apple have ceased support for these operating systems, we advise that as of 1st August 2020 we are no longer able to provide technical support to school licence holders of these titles.
The EdAlive Central Online Future
Our many years of work and experience as publishers of installable software has not been lost. Over the past years we have been migrating the core of our offering to the new EdAlive Central online system. The new EdAlive Central websites preserve all that was great about our CD titles and add a host of powerful new enhancements including automated adaptive learning, curriculum correlations and much more.
