Administrator rights running Windows XP under bootcam[

I have Win XP running under boot camp and it runs beautifully. I do have several programs that are giving me warning messages regarding Administrator rights. I am logged in as administrator under windows. Is there some difference that I need to be aware of when setting up administrator rights under Windows/Bootcamp?
Thanks,
Dale Roach

Administrative rights to Windows Server

I know that we need administrative rights to a window box during
installation and configuration.
After cutover to production, is it possible for the DBA to survive if
administrative rights are revoked?
What daily/often-run tasks will be affected?
Thanks for any suggestion.
PS (Our system admin has taken away admin rights from the DBA, so far, we
are able to identify 10 problem areas, but all of them have workaround/fixes
of some sort).

There's difference between Local and Domain user in windows environment.
Local user with ORA_DBA should be able to do most Oracle administrative tasks.
However, Oracle DBA account is usually given local administrator privilege on the server.

MacMini running Windows 7 under boot Camp

I have a MacMini running MacOS X 10.6.6 and bootcamp 3.2. I use this machine specifically to run my windows applications. The mac is running Windows 7 Professional. Its on a network with 2 iMac. Both iMac can connect to the MacMini without difficulty, and look at the files on the machine. Windows 7 is configured for Remote Desktop Access. Both of the iMacs are configured with Remote Desktop Connection 2.1 from Microsoft and according the Microsoft's website I should be able to access a Windows 7 machine. Of course they are not specific about the platform they Windows 7 is running on.
Is anyone out there connecting to a MacMini running Windows 7 (BootCamp) with a RDC client and access the applications on the Windows 7 machine? This use to work with Parallels 6 but I had problems with the machine freezing and reconfigured to run under BootCamp.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows.
Whereas, not everyone here with an Mac mini has installed, tried to install or has experience with BC & Windows, everyone there has or at least has an interest. You may attract help more quickly there.

Administrator rights problem Windows 2008 R2

Hello,
I have a problem on a Windows 2008 R2 server member of a workgroup. It seems to be a rights problem. I have the problem with all accounts (administrator, another account member of administrators group and any other new account created for testing member
of admin group or not).
When i click on the explorer button in the task bar, an error message is displayed and explorer is not launched : Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
Same message if i double-clic on explorer.exe in c:\windows folder. I can browse my computer by using the "my computer" in start menu.
When i launch internet explorer, it crash immediately, the window is closed.
If i launch the disk management console, i have a message : You do not have access right to Logical Manager
I have tryed to install the update KB2444677 and it fails with an access denied error.
UAC have always been disable but now i cannot launch c:\Windows\system32\UserAccountControlSettings.exe. When i double clic on the icon nothing happens.
I have disabled IE ESC but no change.
The problem occur also under safe mode.
Anybody have an idea about this problem ?
Regards

Can I run windows vista under lion boot camp?

I have an older install disk for windows vista that I need to install on my mac mini running lion. I tried to do it under the bootcamp install but it froze most of the way through it. Will this work? or does it have to be W7 only? Lastly, is there a work around without spending money?

How can I run Windows XP under 10.10.2?

While I seldom use XP, there are times I need a Windows OS. I run OX 10.10.2 on my late 2012 iMac, and until I updated to Yosemite, I was running under Parallels. I deleted Parallels as I wished to upgrade it, and have lost my Windows OS ability. Any help out there?

When you deleted Parallels, did you also delete the XP virtual machine you'd run using Parallels? If not, Kurt Lang's advice to reinstall Parallels will solve your problem. Or, you can install VMware Fusion, which can also use your VM.

ITunes opens but without any text showing. Drop down menus have text but not the app itself. I have a Mac Powerbook Pro running Windows XP under Boot Camp.

Running under Windows XP, a few upgrades ago iTunes started opening without any text showing in the application. Clicking on PLAY will play music but no text shows to indicate what's playing and no text to show music library. Drop down windows show text but not the app itself.
Subsequent upgrades and reinstalls have not corrected the problem, When I run under iOS (Snow Leopard), iTunes opens with text and runs correctly.
Help!

Because I created FAT32 partition using Boot Camp tool few days ago I installed my custom copy of Windows XP with SP3, IE7 and WMP10 integrated using nLite (for WMP10 integration use RVM Integrator). I did not use Boot Camp tool this time - I just booted CD using Option key. Then I installed Boot Camp 2.0 drivers you can find on Mac Disk 1. After this I installed Boot Camp drivers 2.1 update. In Add or remove Programs I checked drivers - I uninstalled old drivers which call identical, but you can skip this. Everything works fine BTW it is better to format your partition to NTFS - you have much less disk errors, you do not waste time for disk errors scans during Windows startup, your data are much more safe. If you need NTFS write permissions use great tool Paragon NTFS for Mac OSX or open source NTFS driver.

Battery life running Windows 7 under Bootcamp/Parallels 9

I'm contemplating buying one of the new 15" MacBook pros, the fully loaded one with the built in Nvidia graphics, and will want to put windows 7 on it. Assuming I can get bootcamp to work (seems like quite a few people are having issues right now!), I like the idea of doing so, and then accessing it through parallels 9 most of the time. However, it seems that the windows drivers only have access to the Nvidia graphics, and cannot switch to the intel graphics when the extra processing isn't needed, so when running in bootcamp mode, the battery life will suck. Will the same be true in Parallels, or given that this is emulating windows through Mavericks, will it get the full Mac control, allowing it to select intel/Nvidia graphics as it needs.
Anyone else tried this who can give me some numbers on what the battery life is likely to be in both modes?
Thanks,
Nick

parallel is a virtuel machine and don't have direct contact with the hardware with real drivers
it access osx generic drivers it will use the generic virtual machine driver osx provide and it will 100% be up to osx how much battery is used
the no direct hardware assess is also why you can't play games in the virutal machine as it don't use the video card at all

Am currently running Windows 7 (under VMWare Fusion 5.x) on a Macbook Pro. When running Windows 8 Upgrade ***'t, I get a Secure Boot compatibility notification

The Microsoft Upgrade Assistant identifies several issues related to compatibility of my system with a Windows 8 upgrade which I'm considering on my Macbook Pro (which is runnng OS X 10.8.2). The message indicates that there is a firmware incompatibility with Microsoft's recently introduced Secure Boot. Is there a resolution on the Apple side? If there is not and none can be expected, does this rule out installation of Windows 8 altogether on my system?

Given that what the MUA is seeing is a virtual computer created by the Fusion environment, the problem lies more in VMWare's realm, rather than Apple's. Which would be the case if you were running on BootCamp instead.
Am running Fusion 4 and haven't upgraded (long story), so I have no knowledge if the latest update to Fusion 5 already incorporates the Windows 8 profile when creating, updating or running a VM, so as to satisfy MS's paranoid requirements. So, assuming you are running Fusion 5, maybe checking in VMWare's forums may yield more up to date info.
OTOH, given that MS is betting the whole farm on Win8, would not suprise me in the least that they would shut down virtualization support in all but a special, more expensive, Win8Virtual edition.......
Edit: BTW, the latest Oracle VirtualBox does incorporate Win8 profiles in both 32 and 64 bit versions, so it would not suprise me that the latest Fusion 5 did as well.

Mac OS X crashes on restart after running Windows 7 under bootcamp

Hi,
Have a strange problem that has only just cropped up recently.
I upgraded to Lion on the day it came out and have booted into my bootcamp partition several times since then however, the other day i booted into Windows 7 and after restarting to go back into Mac OS X, it booted to the desktop, i saw the FInder load and then it just restarts. It then boots into Windows again (next available boot drive i suppose). I then restart into Mac OS X, picking it from the Bootcamp menu in the Windows 7 system tray but it then does the exact same thing - boots into Mac OS X, loads the finder and then restarts into Windows again.
The only way i have been able to boot into Mac OS X is to hold shift at start-up when the Mac drive is selected to boot into, in order to boot it into safe mode and then run Onyx to do a few maintenance tasks. After a restart, Mac OS X boots perfectly again.
I have seen countless posts about Lion not allowing Windows 7 to boot but not the other way around as in my situation.
I have installed Bootcamp 3.3 on Windows 7 and have a completely up-to-date version of Windows 7 and Mac OS X but this still doesn't fix the problem.
Can anyone suggest why this might be happening or what i can do to fix it? I'd like to fix this if possible as i can't go through the rigmoral or having to boot into safe mode and then use Onyx everytime i use Windows. I only use Windows for gaming though so it isn't critical but still a pain.
Many thanks in advance for any help or advice!

Hi probe_driod.
Thanks for your help. I ran software update this morning and the only thing that appeared was an updated version of iTunes. I manually downloaded the Graphics Firmware update but it said it did not apply to my system.
It is to my understanding that i cannot install Bootcamp 4 over the top of my Bootcamp 3.3 installation without first removing my bootcamp partition (therefore destroying all of my data) and then installing bootcamp again from scratch. Is this correct?

Audio Problems - running Windows XP under partition - MacBook4,1

I have a MacBook, model number above. It was properly partitioned and the sound worked fine in Windows until yesterday. Now, no sound device of ANY sort is being recognized. It's almost like Windows XP doesn't realize there is a driver in place. How do I resolve this? Do I have to reinstall XP? I'm not a techie - how do I even do that??? Thanks for your patient advice.

The best option for running Windows on a Mac?

Though I'm loving my MacBook Pro, the only thing I would like to improve is the capacity for playing games. And for that I really need Windows.
So, I have a copy of Windows XP, and I have a copy of Parallel. I've installed Parallel and Windows XP, but it's limited and I can't figure out how to make my graphics card (which is 256MB) work with it. It seems to need to use the Parallel Graphics. So, some questions:
1) Is there a way to play the best Windows games using Parallel?
2) Is there a better alternative? One of my friends mentioned Bootcamp to me. Would that be better? Is there any program that would allow me to run Windows and use the full power of my system to play the games?

For gaming... your best option is to use BootCamp. Parallels is an excellent program... and it runs Windows well under most conditions... but it is still not great for gaming (even with version 3). BootCamp is free. It allows you to boot directly into Windows making your MacBook Pro a full fledged Windows PC. Games will run just as well as they would on any similarly spec'd PC notebook. The BootCamp utility in OS X will allow you to create a Windows driver CD for all of the hardware. You will get full speed 3D, ect. Also... you can use your BootCamp installation of Windows in Parallels... So, after you install Windows via BootCamp, you can delete your previous "Parallels Only" Windows installation and go through the process of installing a new version of Windows in Parallels... you will be able to point it to the copy of Windows you have set up in BootCamp. This way... when you want to play games... you can boot into Windows and run them at full speed... but for those times you are in OS X and you just want to launch an application that does not need all the 3d power, you can launch that same copy of Windows through Parallels.

Need to provide local administrator access without domain administrator rights

Hi All,
I need to provide local admin access to one account in windows environment without providing domain administrator rights.
Windows 2008 DC. Desktops : windows 7
So that we can use this account to install agents like SCCM\SCOM in all servers & desktops.
Need suggestions.

Hi,
I agree with Senne, in addition, we can also use net command to perform local group management.

Authorisations to run Adobe Reader under Windows 8

Under windows 8 with adobe reader 11, I have not been able to launch the program. Each time the system says I don't have the authorisations required (even when I follow instructions to get additional authorisations which I seem unable to obtain despite using the normal sequence of "properties" , "security" " advanced etc. and in this case I get the following message in the "target" slot"
The name "c:\program files\adobe\READER 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" is not valid. Verify that the routing (?) and the name of the file are correct
when I click on the Security tag although the location of the programes of Adobe Reader 11 are in fact in the location detailed above. It would seem that windows 8 has a security system that I don't seem to be able to adjust. (I have used Acrobat under Vista and under XP without these problems) . At the moment and after three days of efforts I am still incapable of getting Reader 11 to run..

(a) After installation of Reader 11.0, the following text appears on the
screen after either double clic on the screen icone or clic on c: directory
(c:\programmes\adobe\Reader 11.0 :-
Title: Reader 11.0
Vous ne disposez pas des autorisations requises pour acceder à ce dossier
(Translation (not on screen): You don't have the authorisations required to
accede to this file)
(There are two tabs ("Continue" and "Cancel")
If one clics on "Continuer" the screen reads:
Reader 11.0
L'acces à ce dossier vous a été refusé. Pour acceder à ce dossier vous
devez utiliser l'onglet de securité :
Translation: Acces to this file for you has been denied. To acces this
file you should use the "Security" tab.
One tab: "Fermer" (Close)
If one then does a right clic on the Reader 11.0 screen icone, and then
clic on "properties" then clic on "Security", I get a listing of "groupes or
users" which for this computer gives the following : "System", "John
Willis([email protected]"), "Administrateur (rulepar\Administrateur),
"Administrateurs (rulepar\Administrateurs), "Interactif". Each of these has a check
mark against "Controle Totale",
"Modification", "Lecture et execution", lecture", "Ecriture" and the three
"rulepar" entries each have a check mark against "Autorisations spéciales".
If one clics on the tab "Avancé" then
on the "Autorisations tab 'john willis ([email protected]_
(mailto:[email protected]) ), 'Administrateur (rulepar\Administrateur), "INTERACTIF",
"Administrateurs (rulepar\administrateurs), "Systeme" all have "Controle Totale"
, "Interactif" has "Lecture et Execution" and "Administrateyr
(rulepar\Administrateur) and "john willis ([email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) )
have "Special"
on the "Partage" (share?) tab there are two entries (Type = Autoriser"
Principal for "Administrateurs (rulepar\Administrateurs) and "Tout le monde

on the Audit tab there is nothing and on the Acces Effectif page there is
"Select a user but nothing else.
The title of this page is c:\users\Public@Desktop\Adobe Reader XI. lnk
