That could be helpful, but then there's no easy way to use those tags except by awkwardly searching for them in search queries. You can tag only "documents" in Scrivener.

Then write it up! The closest I have come to is Scrivener, but you can't annotate or highlight passages in PDF files and you can't "tag" passages you highlight-in PDFs or in regular text files. For simple text analysis, all you need to do is "tag" passages with "codes" or words or short phrases and then compile those codes-still attached to those passages-into a coherent analysis.

I have also tried to experiment with other software that "acts" like a QDA program but is not. In any case, aside from HyperResearch and TAMS Analyzer (free)-both of which are severely limited in their capacities, given what is out there on the market-there are no other QDA programs for mac. That is the QDA program for Windows that is the cheapest, and does the most, but I also discovered the latest version of Nvivo which does some amazing stuff as well. Since I posted this 6 months ago, I've been finishing up my coding with the QDA package Atlas.ti, which is the package I was talking about above. Additionally, this one application has other attractive features such as geocoding and interview transcription aides built in. *There ARE qualitative data analysis solutions for Mac, but NONE of them allow coding (highlighting and "tagging," like annotating a PDF) of media, images nor especially PDF files (like journal articles, or scanned documents).

Thanks, I am still on the lookout for stats about academics using Mac for their research or other work, in contrast to the general public. I thought if I could show that there are a lot of Mac users who are academics, we might be able to put some pressure on, all the while pointing out that they could corner the market, since none exists for the Mac platform.* Just HIRE some mac developer to do it, I think.
I would content myself if it worked under Wine, but it does not and the company says it will not work with Wine. Their response is always to go to a third party solution like Parallels. It is a qualitative data analysis software package that allows coding of PDF files, images, media and so forth, if you know what that means.Īnd while many of users are active in the forums of this software to try to get the company to study a Mac solution, they just don't seem interested. What is clear is that there is no software package that does what it can do that exists in the OSX environment. It's an active piece of software, meaning that it is still and continuously updated, and not really expensive given its competitors (ranging from 100 USD to several hundred). I imagine they would have done a market study, but no one knows because they never say, they just say they are not going to put out a Mac version.and I am not sure how complicated the software actually is.
