Can I download something from the internet that is only meant for windows? Can I make it work with safari?
I would like to download a business program from the internet, but it is only meant for windows. Can I make it work on my mac?
You are aware that you can purchase and install a copy of Windows directly on your Mac, right?
Boot Camp is included with OS X, and requires that you create a separate partition for Windows and install it onto your Mac hard drive. You re-boot your Mac computer into Windows when you want to run the Windows app.
There are also virtual machine environments that will allow you to run full Windows at the same time as Mac OS X: Parallels Desktop, and VMWare Fusion.
Windows performance running in a virtual environment will be limited by the amount of RAM available, the microprocessor, and the amount of hard disk space available.
Parallels offers a free 15-day trial, but you still need a full licensed copy of Windows in order to test it.

I just purchased a mac mini and wondered if it's safe to download from the internet (such as Kobo) that are not available on the app store. It asked me if I was sure it was safe, so it's got me worried.
If you know the sites are OK, then download away.

Can a user download something from the internet onto the IPad, without an app or a computer?
You download apps from the Apple AppStore.
Music is from iTunes
For other types of downloads, try iCab.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 6...can I download it from the internet?
I bought this program some yearsai ago and had it installed on my old computer. I live in another country now and have a new computer....I do not have the original disk with me...is it possible for me to download the program again from the internet? I do have the registration code.
Thanks for your help.Well you can ask for upgrade price which is usually < than the full product price. On Adobe.com you will be able to find only latest version. You might look on web and check if any other vendor is having PSE6 but i fear since it is 4-5 yrs old so hard to find the same. If you have cd/dvd for PSE 6 you can reinstall. Make sure you have serial key with you for the same if it used to need it.

I can't download files from the internet
When I select a file to download from the internet, my Application folder opens, but all of the programs are gray. I've checked Firefox Preferences to make sure that files are downloading to the correct location. I'm using the latest version of Firefox and Mac OSx4.11 on a MacBookPro. Safari works so its not a hardware problem.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 3 days agoAnother thought...
Have you recently tried a download manager like *Speed Download* by any chance? If you have, simply trashing it wont remove the files it installs, and if you don't remove them, the browser wont download anymore. You need to use the uninstaller. -

How can i download something from the app store but not put in my bank details?
how can i make a new app store I.D but not put any bank details in?
Go to your second computer, login to the App Store using the same AppleID you used when you purchased OS X Lion and download it from THAT computer. Or, since you mentioned you downloaded it to one computer and both computers are on the same local area network, share the Install OS X Lion.app file with your second computer or put it on an 8GB USB thumb drive, unplug the drive, plug it into your second computer and copy it to its /Applications folder.

No I doubt it. You can try using the directions listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 but I doubt you will be able to locate a location to download for software that old. Which operating system are you using?

I can't download anything from the internet
I can't download anything! I've tried downloading software updates, widgets, you name it. The page flashes quickly and nothing happens.
Any idea what's going on?
thank you in advance!
ERHi
Two of several possibilities:
Do you have a Download accelerator installed in your system? The most popular is Speed Download? Enter Speed Download in your Finder's Spotlight panel. If installed, you'll either need to become a registered user or uninstall the Plug-in.
If no, You may have a corrupted Safari Downloads file. Go to your Finder: Your User Account>Library>Safari. There, move the Downloads.plist file to the trash, then restart Safari and try a Download.

I can't download music from the Internet on Safari 4
Previously, downloading music was a strange process, since most MP3s opened in QuickTime, on the Safari Page. To be able to save mp3s, I bought QuickTime Pro, and would click the "Save as Source" and save the file to the Music Folder. Now MP3s are still opening in QuickTime Pro, but "Save as Source" is gone. Maybe I was downloading music in a cumbersome way in the first place. But the loss of a "save" option when music is playing -- "Save As" is also grayed out, in the Safari "File" menu -- seems weird. Any ideas?
Are you saying you cannot right-click the MP3 link directly in Safari, and simply select "Download Linked File as" and select a directory to save it in?
Works for me. Always has. -
for example when im now downloading a directX update, so the download starts normaly, but after 15-30 seconds it isn't just making any progres, not eawen if you wait for a while. then I pause the downloading and continue straight after. It si downloading 15-30 seconds agen, and then it stops.
