I want to continue to use GM.
At the moment, I’m still looking for a download site to install GM at home.

Hi, all..

I just found my original Grade Machine for Windows discs – 2 versions -6.5 and 6.8 – both for Windows machines. I’m retired – and have no use for them, so if anyone is interested in resurrecting their Grade Machine files and can do so with the license info, above, please feel free to contact me.

Best,

Sorry Gene and taft, I don’t have knowledge about Lion OS. Maybe someone else will post a solution for you.

Unfortunately, at some point I’m sure our beloved GradeMachine will stop working on the current OS; this may be that point for Mac

I have used Grade machine for a number of years. Is there a program that can import all my past Mac files, especially my role books and written comments about student work? I upgraded to Lion OS, which no longer supports Power PC software programs. I tried to use Gradekeeper for this purpose but to no avail.

Thanks!

Been using GM since the first version came out many, many years ago. There is nothing out there for the MAC that is better……………..retired still using it at the Jr. College. Question: is there a patch or some other way to make it compatible with Lion operating system. Thanks for the GM forum, gene

Lee, would you help me? I was using GM successfully 21 years ago, then Webgrader and then Powerschool. Now that I am in a different school and I need GM I downloaded from your link , I extracted the files but I click on the icon to open it and it does not open, I don’t have a serial number anymore and no verification code. What do you think? I will appreciate any help and thank you in advance. Juve.

Juve, what operating system do you have? The License Editor works in Windows up through XP, but doesn’t seem to work in Windows 7 (and I don’t think it works on Macs, but not sure with Macs that can run Windows programs).

If you can’t get it to run, email me at lee @ trampleasure dot net, including your license number and the title you want to appear on reports (your school, your name, etc.).

Jeff, would you help me? I downloaded GM License Editor, I extracted the files but I can’t open it to use it. Is there anything else I need to do? Thank you in advance. Juve

Hi,
Just thought I would add my experience about GM….my school built me a new lab but with it came a laptop and Windows 7 (64 bit)………my version of GM wouldn’t load in the 64 bit environment. Being stubborn and hating the online grade books our district provides I went looking for a solution…..MS has a virtual XP emulator that does allow me to use GM on the Win 7 (64) system. I wouldn’t say its as easy as it was before…..but at least I’ve put off using the lousy online programs for the foreseeable future.
