I installed Autocad for Mac, free student version.

 

Everything works fine with the install, and I can launch the program, but then how do I start creating a house? 

 

My screen has almost no options (see attached). Looks like I need to install something more?

 

Has anyone had the same problem? Would be great help.

 

Best

André

Welcome to the Autodesk Forums!

 

Hi André,

 

I think you need to try the solution from this topic:

 

http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-for-mac-general/autocad-lt-2013-app-store-download-no-menu-bar...

 

You need to replace "AutoCAD LT" to "AutoCAD 2015" in application name and the path to support files I mentioned in that solution: from "~/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/roaming/AutoCAD LT 2013/R19.0/enu/Support" to

"~/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/roaming/AutoCAD 2015/R20.0/enu/Support"

 

You can also look at this discussion:

Hi. Thanks for the feedback.

 

I don't think it is the first problem. There is no file called Autocad LT, it is already called AutoCAD 2015. 

 

The second problem, where there are some files missing in a hidden folder. That doesn't seem to be the problem either as I don't have that file path. I unhid all the folders, but noroaming folder in the Autocad folder in Application Support.

 

Could this have changed for the 2015 version?

Nothing changed in AutoCAD 2015. In order it function properly there should be Autodesk folder (and other AutoCAD related folders inside it):

Do you have such folders on your Mac inside Library folder in your Home folder?

 

As about AutoCAD LT - in my previous post I wrote, that you need to substitute the name "AutoCAD LT" with "AutoCAD 2015" in order to follow my instructions correctly if you have AutoCAD 2015 on your Mac.
