Some questions
Hi,
Question 1: Is the installer created with pure InstallScript (no MSI) installable to Mac systems? The installer create a shortcut by calling 'AddFolderIcon()' and the shortcut execute a .vbs file to launch a website (using "InternetExplorer.Application").
Question 2: If it's installable on Mac, do I need to make changes on my installer (items mentioened above: 'AddFolderIcon()', "InternetExplorer.Application")?
Question 3: Is there any way that I can make a ShortCut created with InstallShield (non-Msi, Basic, or hybrid) appear differently? For example, to remove the white bent arrow from the icon, or even look like a Widget.
Thanks,
B.P.

1 & 2: Installations that are created in InstallShield can be installed on Windows-based systems only. For installations that can be installed on Mac systems, consider InstallAnywhere.
3. You can use your own icon resource for a shortcut. To change the icon for a shortcut, see the following help topic: Specifying the Icon for a Shortcut
I hope that helps.
