Well, that is not surprising...if it was an app to convert Windows SPSS 
files to Stata, do you think it would be provided in a version that Mac

It is a program to make it easier for Mac users fed up with SPSS' on-again, 
off-again support for the Mac to use a stats package that is well supported 
by its vendor.
