I am confused.
I am a MAC user - I also bought the Neat receipts scanner then downloaded the MAC software to make it work.
How can I upgrade and also does NeatDesk do all that Neat Office does?
I want to be able to export to finance programs as well as scan Word Documents.
Thanks! Georgia
PS - I do love the product and had wnated to purchase for X-mas gifts, but this Mac issue makes it very difficult.

That’s great. Now all we need is multi-currency support so I can use one in New Zealand and the UK.
Coming any time soon?

Will your NeatDesk scanner be able to run on Mac with this update?

Hi:
After upgrading to the most recent MAC software, I have been getting this message:
The default library was not found at the location “/Users/Gregory/Documents/BUSINESS/ARCHETYPE COMMUNICATIONS/ARCHETYPE COMMUNICATIONS, INCORPORATED/ARCHETYPE COMMUNICATIONS Expenses 2008/ARCHETYPE COMMUNICATIONS INC..nrmlib”. Would you like to create it?
I don’t want to lose all the data I have accumulated. Best way to handle this? And how can I avoid this problem when the new release is available?
Thanks for your help…

I received a Neat Receipts Mobile Scanner & Digital Filing System for Christmas. I have a MacBook Pro and I can’t find anything that says it will work on a Mac. It lists Microsoft Windows XP or Vista. Do I need to purchase a different scanner for a Mac or Is the sofware made for both? Please advise.
Thank You,

So the Mac version supports third party scanners, will the PC version as well?

Hi,
I presently use Neat Receipts Version 3.0 for windows. Due to never ending problems with the Vista operating system, I have switched to a Mac. How can i obtain the Mac version of Neat Receipts?

I thought there was once a note on the website indicating an 05 January release date. This must have been pushed back, but what is the new date? Thanks.

Hey! I’m so excited for the update! I just opened the program and let me know it had an update! I’m looking forward to using it and testing out the new features. I’m really excited about the addition of the Business Cards! I also use Evernote’s software! It would be great to see a connection between you two!

How about adding the ability to import photos of receipts taken with the iPhone.

The tuaw at http://www.tuaw.com/2009/01/14/macworld-2009-neat-receipts-neat-works-video-interview/1#c16561782review says, “… NeatWorks for Mac. It’s available for US$59.95″ but the site says $79.95. What happened to the better price? Simply a typo or is there a special for tuaw readers?

I received the Neat Receipts for Mac from my son for Christmas. I have not installed the version 1.1 yet, waiting for the new 2.0. I travel, thus making contact with my mail difficult. Will or is the 2.0 downloadable? Should I install 1.1 now or wait for 2.0? Thanks

I am still waiting for a version of networks 2.03 that will run on my Mac.
This version causes my mac to freeze up.

MARTIN: Please submit a bug report or contact Technical Support about this issue, if you have not already. We are currently working on a maintenance release that will hopefully fix this issue. You will be automatically notified when it becomes available.
ian: Check out neatco.com/mac-hardware for configuration instructions.
Richard: You should install 1.1 now - the software will prompt you to download the 2.0 upgrade, which you will receive for free.
HMcM: Unfortunately, the $59.95 price was a show special only, and it should have been reported to the TAUW community as $79.95. We apologize for the confusion.
Bruce: The product was released in early January. If you are a current user, you should be alerted of the update in the application.
Al: Please contact Customer Support, and they will be able to assist you.
Carol: We sell the PC and Mac versions of NeatReceipts as separate products, so it is likely that the product you have will not work on a Mac. But the Mac software is now available as a standalone product which you may purchase at store.neatco.com. This software will work with the scanner you already have.
Gregory: Please submit a bug report or contact Technical Support about this issue, if you have not already. We are currently working on a maintenance release that will hopefully fix this issue. You will be automatically notified when it becomes available.
Ben: We are currently working on a NeatDesk for Mac product and hope to release it in early Spring. You can sign up to receive updates at neatco.com so you’ll be the first to know when it becomes available.
Christiaan: We hope to release plans for an English-language compatible version in the next 6-12 months.
Georgia: You can always get the most up-to-date version of the software by going to NeatWorks > Check For Updates in the menu. Currently NeatDesk and Scan To Office functionality is not supported on the Mac platform. (We are currently working on a NeatDesk for Mac product and hope to release it in early Spring.)

I do a lot of international travel. The software doesn’t support multi-currency receipts?
April 6th, 2009 at 9:23 am
I bought the mac neatworks and scanner. I want to export to office when will that be available? i need to get it into Excel as that is where my expense reports are.
June 14th, 2009 at 9:24 am
I want to do all my file cabinets. Will the Neat desk do both legal and regular size paper? What do you do scan a folder at a time and it will name the folder in word document and will it work in Word 8 for Mac as well as Word 8 for windows?

Hello Neat!
You answered a question that Carol Ferger asked about switching to a Mac… Well I too bought a Mac and would like to use my Neat Receipts scanner on it… you said that the scanner will be useable for both PC and Mac so therefore it’s just the software that differs… you also said there were two separate software available, one for Mac and one for PC…. seeing how I already paid 200$ for the PC version should I not be allowed to get the software for Mac for free??? and if not then you can you explain why not? If I’m required to pay for the Mac software I’m thinking I am getting scammed… what do you think?
Thanks

Hey, is Neat Receipts English only? or will it do receipts in other languages?
