Dear The original BioEdit homepage has information about bugs and issues with the program. However, the github homepage does not have this information. I know that you have to edit something in the "temp" file/folder to avoid problems. But I don't remember exactly how to fix it. Does anyone have a list of how to fix it? I cant find it. Thanks

To fix bugs in BioEdit, you may need to modify the configuration settings or temporary files to avoid running into known issues. While I don’t have specific instructions since it can depend on the type of bug you're encountering, here are some general steps you can take:
Update: Ensure you are using the latest version of BioEdit, as updates often fix known bugs.
Temp Folder: If the issue involves editing something in the "temp" folder, try clearing the temporary files. You can find the temp folder usually in C:\Users\[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\Temp and delete files that are safe to remove.
Run as Administrator: Sometimes running the program with administrative privileges can resolve permission-related issues.
Compatibility Mode: Try running BioEdit in compatibility mode for an older version of Windows if you are using a more recent version.
Community Forums or Github: Visit relevant community forums or the software's repository on GitHub. While you mentioned that the GitHub page lacks information, sometimes there are issues archived or mentioned in past discussions that can be enlightening.
Official Support: Check if there is any official or semi-official support available through email or other means from the original developers.i>
For specific issues, it might be helpful to search for similar problems encountered by other users or provide more details to narrow down the solution.
BioEdit is not able to found the archive even trying to open directly from the archive. "File not Found"

No, this is not a spam message. The question is related to the software program BioEdit for Windows, specifically about an error when opening FASTA and AB1 files. It seems that the program is unable to find the files even when trying to open them directly from the archive. The error message displayed is "File not Found.
No, the software is not available for Mac OSX. I've checked and it appears that the software isn't even supported and maintained anymore. It can be considered as being discontinued even if there are downloads available.
This also means there won't be a version for Mac OSX in the future as well.
The only way to run the software is by installing Windows through Bootcamp or virtualize it using Parallels Desktop, or you could try Wine Bottler, the famous app that can run Windows software without having Windows installed.
After doing the multiple alignment of sequences, I click on the option "Graphic View" but I get this error message: "Operation not supported on selected printer". How can I fix it?

The application is configured to use the default printer. If you receive that messages, it means that the default printer is not supported for what you are trying to do. Go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printers. Right click the printer you use most and then select Default Printer. After this operation, the BioEdit application should work normally.

Try consulting with official website of the developer or contacting him via stated e-mail.
There is no information related to the way you can add a reference for BioEdit. I've checked their website, and it appears that they've ceased support for the program. I've also downloaded the license and there was no details.

Yes, there is a silent switch to install the BioEdit application on Windows.
It appears to be due to a recent Windows update
Is Bioedit available for Macbook Pro?

The primary executable application hasn't been updated since 2013 and supporting applications date back to 1993.
sorry, it is free so no necessary to buy.
