PAUP for MAC版并非支持所有的苹果机型。具体在作者的网站有详细的解释：


The Macintosh version of PAUP* 4.0 is the most full-featured implementation currently available. Users may choose between command-line and menu-driven interfaces to implement all of the available functions. PAUP* 4.0 also provides a scroll back display buffer, a versatile editor, command recall, and high-resolution tree printing/saving options. PAUP* 4.0 for Mac is available for four Macintosh architectures: Power Macintosh (Altivec), Power Macintosh (PPC), Apple Macintosh (68K), and Apple Macintosh without a floating point unit (68K noFPU).


OS X compatibility:
The Altivec and PPC versions of PAUP will run under the classic layer of Mac OS X. Starting with the forthcoming release of Beta 11, Mac users will be given a choice to install a command-line version of PAUP* in addition to the classic Mac GUI version. The command-line version runs on Mac OS X in a terminal window and takes full advantage of Mac OS X's memory protection and preemptive multitasking but LACKS a Graphical User Interface (GUI). Work is currently underway to "carbonize" the GUI Mac version of PAUP*; however, at this time, we cannot speculate on when this version will be available.
        
        
Power Macintosh (Altivec)

    * System software (Mac OS) 9.x to 10.3 (Classic)
    * A minimum of 4 MB RAM
    * 2 MB of available hard-disk space

               
Power Macintosh (PPC)

    * System software (Mac OS) version 7 to 10.3 (Classic)
    * A minimum of 4 MB RAM
    * 2 MB of available hard-disk space

        
68K and 68K noFPU

    * System software (Mac OS) version 6.0.4 to 8.x
    * A minimum of 4 MB RAM
    * 2 MB of available hard-disk space

68K - for Apple Macintosh machines that have at least a 68020 processor and that either have a floating-point coprocessor or a processor with an onboard floating-point unit (MC68881/MC68882). This includes the majority of machines made for 68030 and 68040 processors (Quadra, Centris) and most Macintosh II class CPUs.

68K noFPU - for Apple Macintosh machines based on the 68LC040 processor which do not have a floating-point coprocessor (e.g., PowerBook 500 series, many LC, Performa, pre-Mac II models, and some Centris models). The "noFPU" version will run on any 68K Mac, but it will perform much more slowly than the FPU version on systems that have floating-point units.

苹果电脑是一个很麻烦的电脑，不同系列是互相不兼容的，作者网站上还有其它相关苹果电脑的一些帮助说明：大家看一下吧。

Is there a version of PAUP* that will work on my new Intel-based Mac?

Yes, Mac users who have upgraded to an Intel-based Mac must follow the instructions on this page to get a version of PAUP* that will work on this platform. Back to questions

Is there a version of PAUP* that will work natively under Mac OS X?


Yes, we have compiled a command-line only version of PAUP* 4.0 beta that will run on Mac OS X in a terminal window.  Note, this version takes full advantage of Mac OS X's memory protection and preemptive multitasking but LACKS a Graphical User Interface (GUI).  Starting with the forthcoming release of Beta 11, Mac users will be given a choice to install the command-line version of PAUP* as well as the classic Mac GUI version.  Work is currently underway to "carbonize" the GUI Mac version of PAUP*; however, at this time, we cannot speculate on when this version will be available.  The Mac GUI version of PAUP* is compatible with Mac OS X when run in the classic layer. If you are only interested in the command-line version of PAUP* then you may purchase the portable version http://www.paup.csit.fsu.edu/port.html   Back to questions


I just purchased a new Mac and Classic support is not installed on the system.  How do I run PAUP* without classic support?

You have two choices. The first is to install classic support on yourmachine. While Apple no longer installs classic support by default onnew systems, you can install it yourself with very little effort. Aclassic support installer is included on the "Additional Software &Apple Hardware Test" CD. This CD is included with your set of systemCDs. Open the file labeled "About the Additional Software & AppleHardware Test Disc" on the "Additional Software & Apple HardwareTest" CD and you will find concise instructions for installing classicsupport.

Your second choice is to use the command-line version of PAUP* for OSX. Starting with the forthcoming release of Beta 11, Mac users can usea command-line version of PAUP* in addition to the classic Mac GUIversion. The command-line version runs on Mac OS X in a terminal windowand takes full advantage of Mac OS X's memory protection and preemptivemultitasking but LACKS a Graphical User Interface (GUI). The Beta 11installer and updater will automatically add the command-line programto your system path. To start command-line program type "paup" interminal window. See the quick-start document http://paup.csit.fsu.edu/quickstart.pdf for more details regarding the use of the command-line version of PAUP*.

现在的苹果电脑大多是intel CPU的，PAUP现行版本不支持intel CPU 的苹果电脑，需要向原作者索取更新版本。

苹果电脑好是好，可是兼容性太差。

根据作者网站说明，现在intel版的paup * 只能够在命令行模式下运行。
