I no longer want to use vmware fusion to run my windows session, can I use boot camp to launch my vmware windows install or do I have to start again with a brand new installation?

Hi,
I would like to know if I'm able to use my current VMWare windows installation through Boot Camp, I don't want to use fusion anymore but I'm hoping there's a way to set up boot camp and not have to re-install windows again, if anyone could let me know that would be great

Thank you for your response GabeAlan, am i able to back up my virtual windows without access through VMware fusion? its locked me out since i upgraded to Yosemite, i prefer to see if i can avoid having to pay to upgrade to the latest fusion

  • I'd like to start over with a brand new addresbook

    I would like to possibly back up and then remove current addressbook and start over Fresh.
    What I want to do is back up my Blackberry/Altell phone's contacts to a new addressbook. without wiping out the information I have on the Blackberry I tried this once before by deleting everything in Current Address book on one of my computers. but in doing so using MissingSync it wiped all the information on the phone. Luckily I had a back up addressbook on another computer and had all the contact names. and most information was okay but allot of the details were wrong and I had to redo everything.
    Any way to do it without jeapordizing my phone contacts whis is about 90 contacts.

  • Ical--NOTHING is working, brand new installation

    Hi, folks, I had to reinstall my system (brand new installation on erased hard drive). iCal is pulling my synched calendars in. But nothing related to the To Do list is working.
    No old to do items show up.
    I can't enter new ones.
    Most times the to do section isn't being drawn correctly on-screen--sometimes it shows part of the monthly calendar, sometimes it's just black. If a switch views, it only gets worse.
    Any advice? Thanks!

  • I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?

    I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?

    Thank you KiltedTim!
    YES, that is the free 5GB icloud memory for each apple ID. Can I not add the free 5Gb of my second Iphone to my original apple ID (5GB also) as I want to use one Apple ID name on both 2 Iphones? Is it necessary to have a different apple ID for the second Iphone to avail the free 5GB it carries with it?

  • I have set up a Netgear dual band modem which works well with the iPhone and an older MacBook, but with this brand new MacBook it asks for a password every time I reopen the computer and open safari. Is it Lion?

    I have set up a Netgear dual band modem which works well with the iPhone and an older MacBook, but with this brand new MacBook it asks for a password every time I reopen the computer and open safari. As you can imagine this is very annoying. It says I am not connected to the internet and offers me a choice of nearby networks including mine and then asks for a password when I select it. Why does it do this with our new MacBooks (also with my son's brand new one) and not with the iPhone, iPad and older MacBook? They happily automatically connect to our network after entering the password just the once.

    Sig, I appreciate you trying to be helpful. I have no idea what issues you were having or what issue exactly pgrounds has been having. Your assumption that everyone's set up is the same as yours is false however. There are many many documented WiFi issues that are a result of Lion installs. Many have been solved by 10.7.1 and 10.7.2. Others have been solved by a large variety of work arounds. Others have not had their issues solved yet.
    I am one of those. I have an IT background, and I spent the better of five hours digging up workarounds and attempting all of them. For the benefit oh anyone who is having similar issues, I have posted links to all of those workarounds here. None of them worked in my case, but hopefully they will help pgrounds or others.
    So, once again, if you have a new idea, I'd love to here it. But if it has already been posted in one of these links, it's not helpful, let it go.

  • Problem with my brand new mp3 player Zen Stone Plus 2GB ( with built in speaker )

    Hi .
    I have purchased the following Zen Stone Plus 2GB with built in speaker on 24.06.2008.
    From day one, it had a charging problem . Initial charging it'snever go beyond 87%.
    After using it for 2 days, at the time of recharging , I found my player won`t get dectected in my PC .
    I took the set to the vendor for a checkup . He tried to solve it by resetting , formating etc. But he could only able to to format it's sacrificing its 50% of its allocated space.
    My vendor then changed the set with a brand new one, againts that faulty one .
    Now the new one worked well for 3 - 4 days , but it is now totally dead .
    But the set did not give any indication before it become completely dead.
    A few dust particles inside the LCD screen was also observed. I can`t understand how come dust particles can enter inside
    a player which is sealed box pack .
    Next issue is with the battery which CREATIVE promised of giving a backup of approx 20 hrs of continious playback , which with minimal scuffling and with minimal settings lasted for 0 hrs approx ( 50% less than promised ).
    Another thing that i must state is the problem of FM Reception . It is simply terrible . In the same area where my mobile's FM reception is fine , Zen Stone's FM failed to give any reception .
    I came to know about Zen Stone Plus from of my friend , who is using Zen Stone Plus GB without any problem for long time.
    Pls tell me what to do now, since my player is compleately out of order now , and pls suggest me something regarding the issue of battery backup , FM reception ... etc.
    Now i am in a total mess . I just dont know what to do with the set that is few days old .
    Pls help urgently .
    Waiting for any valued suggestion .
    Bye ...

  • Can I use a Windows 7 backup in a boot camp installation

    Hi,
    About to buy a Mac and I was just wondering if I could use a Windows Backup System Image to install Windows 7 using Boot Camp Assistant in the Mac or if I need to have a brand new copy of Windows.
    Apologies if this sounds like an incredibly stupid question.
    Thanks for any help in advance.
    Ben

    If you restore the system from the backup, you would recover all your stuff, configuration, apps, etc. However I concur that you will need a new Windows license. MS offers no way of deactivating a previous instance and transferring it to a new host, at least in the workstation version. Were it a Server version, you can disable the activation on the old host and reuse the license on the new (just checked).
    The license/activation key is tied to the startup volume's UUID number, which is unique.

  • Other taking up space with a brand new iPhone

    other taking up space with a brand new iPhone, never used or plugged in. 1st time conecting and it says 564.8mb other. WTH??

    I'm sorry, I don't understand your comment. Any computer program has at least 2 divisions. A Code division and a Data division. When we talk about the size of a program or operating system we mean the size of the Code division. The Data division will be of variable size, and can change dynamically. So the size of iOS when you download it is the size of the code. Other includes the data division of iOS, plus the data divisions of all apps that come bundled with iOS, plus the Safari cache, plus all email messages, plus all texts, plus all contacts, plus all calender events, plus all notes, plus all reminders, plus the music catalog, plus album art, plus data used by the iTunes & App stores, plus data used by the Genius feature, pus data used by Game Center, plus data used by Apple Maps (but not Google maps if you have it), plus a few things I've probably forgotten about.
    Immediately after a new phone is activated, or after it is restored as new, Other still contains the data divisions of iOS. And if you have logged in to the iTunes and App stores during setup it contains the information from your account for those apps. And if you have logged in to iCloud it contains all of your iCloud contacts, calendar events, notes, reminders and email.
    I've explained this several different ways. I'm not going to try again.

  • "Your bootable USB drive could not be created" "Boot Camp only supports 64-bit Windows installation on this platform. Please use an ISO file for 64-bit Windows installation."

    I try to install windows7 system on my macbook air, which version is 10.8.5. When I open the bootcamp, it let me to choose a windows ISO image, which I've already downloaded from this website: http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325 /, it also asked me to select a USB drive, which is kingston that has 8GB. Then when I clicked "continue", it said that "Your bootable USB drive could not be created" "Boot Camp only supports 64-bit Windows installation on this platform. Please use an ISO file for 64-bit Windows installation." But actually the ISO image I downloaded is 64-bit windows7. I don't know why this would happen. Could someone help me please!!

    Thanks for your feedbakc Kiranjj!
    I identified the reason to be that the W8 installation file didn't download completely from a Mac OS-device. I downloaded from another Win-device and the moved the installation file with a USB-stick and then everything worked diectly! But thanks anyway.

  • If my iphone 5 has a problem within the first 30 days will apple replace it with a brand new one or will i get a refurbished model.

    if my iphone 5 has a problem within the first 30 days will apple replace it with a brand new one or will i get a refurbished model??

    If it is replaced under warranty, it will be replaced with a unit from the "replacement stock", which either will be a refurb or new (no way to distinguish these) and the S/N will indicate a replacement unit.
    The "30 day" rule varies from county to country, and applies only to returns, not replacement.
