Can i load xp on my mac

I am trying to load XPpro on my macbook pro with lion using bootcamp, can that be done?

Only Windows 7 can be loaded using Boot Camp with Lion. You would need to use a Virtual Machine.

I can't load Flickr on my mac

I can't load Flickr on my laptop, it does not open at all.It is just FLICKR. I've even tried different browser but still not working. Any idea of what's going on ?? Thank you.

Are you using the current versions of Firefox and Chrome? Which os are you using? If you are not in the US, contact your ISP. The issue could be on their end.

Can I load movies from one Mac to another using the same account?

I know that you can retireve purchased items, such as music, apps, books & TV shows and load them onto multiple computers, however I can't seem to do the same with Movies. I have purchased some movies on another computer, and want to transfer it over to a second computer, too, that uses the same account.
Can I do this?

Films can currently only be re-downloaded in the US (and I don't think that all films can be re-downloaded there). You can copy them over via, for example, a flash drive or external drive to your other computer and add them to that computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library, or you might be able to copy them over home sharing if your computers are on the same network.

Can't load java on my mac air book

Has anyone else had a problem loading the Java app onto the mac airbook? I need it to use a budget system and have done the software updates and downloaded the app and it still say that I need to load it. Help please????

You shouldn't need to download anything for Mac OS X as it ships with Java2 inbuilt. Install the developer tools that came with your OS X disc (assuming you want to use this environment to write your code) and away you go.

Can i load AOL on to my mac computer

How can I load AOL on my MAC computer? Related to this is another question. When I open my mail and have picture attachments, I can seem to open them in IPhoto. Very frustrated!

Not sure what you mean by "loading" but if you simply want to access your AOL email account with Mac Mail, follow the instructions provided by AOL:
http://help.aol.com/help/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalI d=219584&sliceId=1&docTypeID=DT_AOLHOW_TO_1_1&dialogID=372701486&stateId=1%200%2 0939168236&radios=False
There are also other helpful articles under their Help section.
And, again, not sure about your second question - are you choosing to save them to iPhoto? What are the steps you are taking to try to get them into iPhoto? FWIW, you don't need iPhoto to just look at them, they should open automatically when you double click them?

Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2? If yes, then how? I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2? If yes, then how? I have the software and one more load opportunity left.
Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.

How can I load Numbers 2.3 or iWork from my mac pro to my new Mini??

Hi guys. I want to load numbers 2.3 onto my new mac mini running Mavericks. I want 2.3 and 3.0 to run side by side as I have seen others do here.
My Mini has only ever had 3.0. I copy and pasted iWorks over, however it did not work though comes up with compatibility error.
the app store did allow me to update from this method though.
My mac pro is running 10.6.4 with iWorks 09 running beautifully.
I was told about trying Migration Assistant, did not work either, My ex HDD has TM for both on there and when I open MA it only recognizes and asks about
importing from the mini backup only. It is not reading the mac pro backup.
Any ideas or suggestions are much appreciated.
I have attempted downloads from net with no avail, I am giving my cc numbers to pple when they say 'I will not charge you'....
one download was an issue because osx no longer supports ppc power pc games - claytons hard drives on computer.
Thanks and enjoy.
I see my other question on moving tables between sheets is stumping ppl, a few views no responses, Is it POSSIBLE???
Jason. Dream Big and achieve everyone.

Not sure it will work - it might have to do with the licensing requirements; any app downloaded through the app store can be run on as many Macs as you own and control. However, yours is still the old version of iWork which has an older, separate agreement. Applicable excerpt here:

I had Leopard on may Mac. I upgraded to Mountain Lion using Snow Leopard. I can't use my video with Mountain Lion. Can I load Snow Leopard on an external hard drive so I can use it with my camera?

First, you cannot do this if you have a Boot Camp partition.
Second: Create a new partition.
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
After the main menu appears select Disk Utility and click on the Continue button. Select the hard drive's main entry then click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
2. You should see the graphical sizing window showing the existing partitions. A portion may appear as a blue rectangle representing the used space on a partition.
3. In the lower right corner of the sizing rectangle for each partition is a resizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and move the bottom of the rectangle upwards until you have reduced the existing partition enough to create the desired new volume's size. The space below the resized partition will appear gray. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed. (Note: You can only make a partition smaller in order to create new free space.)
4. Click on the [+] button below the sizing window to add a new partition in the gray space you freed up. Give the new volume a name, if you wish, then click on the Apply button. Wait until the process has completed.
You should now have a new volume on the drive.
It would be wise to have a backup of your current system as resizing is not necessarily free of risk for data loss. Your drive must have sufficient contiguous free space for this process to work.
Third: Install Snow Leopard.
Boot from your Snow Leopard DVD. Follow instructions for installation being sure that before you actually install Snow Leopard you have selected the new partition as your target destination.
Booting From An OS X Installer Disc
1. Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo
appears.
5. Wait for installer to finish loading.

Can I load my current software on to a refurbished mac book pro

Can I load my current software on to a refurbished mac book pro

When you get the MBP, the first time you turn it on, the Setup Assistant will offer to migrate your data from an old computer to the new one. Take advantage of the offer, and elect to migrate your applications too. If your MS Office apps won't open after being moved over, it will likely be because Microsoft's registration and activation routines have locked the software to the first computer it was installed on. You'll need to consult Microsoft for advice on freeing it up for use on the new computer, which will probably entail deactivationg it on the old one first.

If I purchase a brand new I-mac today do I have to run OS Lion or can I load Snow leopard?

If I purchase a brand new I-mac today do I have to run OS Lion or can I load Snow leopard?

Just faced that question, and the answer should be that you can run SL on the latest iMac.
(Our scenario: Bought 3 iMacs in August. Was surprised -- and relieved! -- to see that they arrived with SL installed on them, and grey system restore disks. One of the machines was DOA. Futzed around with it for 6 weeks trying to get it to work, decided it was dead, drove it 4 hours to the nearest Apple Store. They gave us a new iMac, which when we got it back, turned out to have Lion on it. Popped in one of the three grey restore disks that had come in August, installed SL, it works without any problems.)

Can I load photos stored on a pc backup hardrive onto my Mac IPhoto?

Can I load photos stored on a pc backup hardrive onto my Mac IPhoto?

You can indeed. Simply drag the folder containing the images (or the images themselves) from the hard drive to the iPhoto icon in the dock (same one you click on to open iPhoto. This will cause iPhoto to start importing whatever you drag in.
Two suggestions:
Have a backup of your current library before you do the import just in case iPhoto encounters a corrupt file during import which might damage your existing library of images: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
Import the images in small batches if there are many of them. That way if there is an error with one of the images during import you can easily identify where the bad image is coming from.
Cheers.

Hey i have a old powerbook G4 laptop and i was wondering where can i download the OS ( Mac OSX 10.5.8 Build ( 9L30 ) to do a fresh install my system is running really slow is there any place where i can down load this OS?

Hey i have a old powerbook G4 laptop and i was wondering where can i download the OS ( Mac OSX 10.5.8 Build ( 9L30 ) to do a fresh install my system is running really slow is there any place where i can down load this OS?

Hello,
Unfortunately Apple do not offer a download for mac OS X 10.5.8. They will only provide updates available for download. ( Normally you would do so once the OS is installed)
To do a fresh install of this software your going to need to buy a retail copy of the disk.
There are some vendors who do still stock the media disk, but they can be expensive.
Best of luck.

Jacob,
You are genius! I search all over the net and had a long chat with Apple without success. 30 minutes after posting the Abobe Illustrator forum, I have a link that works!! Many thanks.

If your computer doesn't have enough disk space, yes.
If your computer doesn't have enough RAM, not without installing more.
