Hello, anyone is working already with the new Mac m1 with Autocad? I want to buy the new macbook air m1, but searching people are saying it might not work for Autocad yet.....

You might be better off asking in the AutoCAD for Mac forum.

Hi @Anonymous
The official answer is: "Currently AutoCAD for Mac does not support Apple M1 Mac models. We are working on it."
At the same time some of the users reported that they can launch and use AutoCAD for Mac on Mac with new M1 chip.
Look at this discussion:
@maxim_k I just updated the statement:
Update:
AutoCAD for Mac 2020/2021 has been declared as supporting Apple Silicon Mac with Rosetta 2 mode. The info is updated on the AutoCAD system requirement page.
Thanks @wei503 for the update.
I would say it works, but it is kind of laggy. My fps estimate is about 30.... so it is usable but especially with certain functions it shows low fps rate, so not that pleasant experience. Hope Autodesk will make ARM based version soon...

Hi @Anonymous ,
Please include the version of AutoCAD you are trying to use, the version of macOS installed on your Mac, and your Mac model.
>>>>my macbook not working tha autocad
Can you provide more details:
How was the installation?
What happened when you first started the program?
Have you been able to use the program at least once?
etc.
then it's crashing and not working well. If you need it for critical projects, and or make money building things in CAD, I'd hold off until it's officially supported. it's never worth New shiny when it's too new/shiny to get work done.
