Any known risks installing and running the "feed the beast" minecraft mod?

I know this isn't a Minecraft forum - I plan to check those too - but I wanted to solicit the opinions of some Apple/OS experts too.
My son has been hounding me to download and install the "Feed the Beast" mod for Minecraft. I have been putting it off since I haven't been sure if running these pose any risk to my computer.
So that is my question - what should I be aware of before installing and running this mod? Anything? Or is it relatively harmless/risk-free?
2010 iMac
OS X Mt. Lion 10.8.2
3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB
Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your response. I've had the Facebook app for quite some time and just started having problems.whenever there's a new update I always update right away. Wasn't sure of it would be a FB or iPhone problem. But you're right, haven't had any problems with any other apps. Thanks so much!

I want to use my mac mini as a stand alone hardawre for windows 8. If it is possible please help with what to do...

Backup / clone Mac OS X to another drive for safe keeping.
Boot from Windows 8 DVD and just format the entire drive, make sure to have everything else not needed unpugged.
Nothing hard.
What is Boot Camp 5?
Boot Camp 5 is not a release of OS X software. Rather, it is a release of the Windows Support Software (drivers). You will need to use this software on your Mac with Windows 8 or Windows 7. For more information on Boot Camp 5, see thttp://support.apple.com/kb/HT5639
Which Macs support Windows 8?
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)

Have you installed AppController on the same machine with VMM?

9iFS simply does not install and run on WIndows 2000

hello,
story so far ( sigh. )
1) install failed but ran ifssetup.bat to complete as per a previous thread suggestion
2) added log-on-as-batch privilege to administrator ( with which everything is installed and run )
3) from the EMWeb start node and launch domain work correctly, but start domain fails.
4) running ifslaunchdc.bat and ifslaunchnode.bat works fine, but ifsstartdomain.bat worked correctly before i rebooted the machine after installing the software, and from then on gives me the following error :
exception IFS-45002 unable to start domain controller,
exception IFS-21008 unable to connect to IFS service
exception IFS-32005 failed to get prepared statement etc
I have seen any number of people here post about this problem, but has any one got a solution !!!???
A number of people mention ensuring the domain controller is started with the correct account details. As i have installed everything as administrator and everything is run with administrator account, I fail to see how this can help. Any help very much appreciated.
I am finding it VERY difficult to understand why it is so problematic to install this software - even the installer fails to complete on a clean machine meeting all the oracle specified criteria.

Tom

Hi, I'm assuming you are using the Manual Install. Did you already Uninstall any current Flash Player version?
If not, download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Then download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Use the EXE Installer for Windows and Internet Explorer. Use the EXE Installer for the plugin based browsers
Then use the Administrator Account and CLOSE all browser Windows. Disable any instant messenger service from the system tray.
Run the Uninstaller and reboot(restart) your computer.
Then Run the Installer and reboot.
That message appears because the IE browser window is open.
Thanks,

How to install and run USB device application without NI-VISA environment?

Hi everyone:
I develop a LabWindows/CVI8.5 application that uses a driver for a USB device created using the NI-VISA 4.6.2. The application is ok when the NI-VISA environment is installed in PC. But the NI-VISA 4.6.2 is too big(326M). Can be the USB device successfully installed in non-development machine without NI-VISA 4.6.2? Just need some files, such as INF, NiViUsbK.sys and ni-visa32.dll, the device will be installed and run. If the way is feasible, please tell me how to do. Which files are necessary to the device is installed in non-development machine without NI-VISA 4.6.2 environment? It is so big, I need a minimum NI-VISA system.
I need your help.

Personally I use the open source LibUSB. It links without difficulty with
CVI. And it works both on Linux and Windows, which is a big plus. Haven't
touched it in 2 years though.

I have Windows XP and when I try to install and run 3.6.13, it says the file is corrupted. I don't have any previous versions.

I have Windows XP operating system. I have never installed any version of mozilla firefox. When I try to install and run version 3.6.13, it says the file is corrupted. I have tried just running it. It said it was corrupted. Then I saved it to my computer and tried running it and it still said the file was corrupted.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading and installing work.

HT1338 I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8. Is there any way for me to install and run keynote on this machine? Do I need to upgrade OS and how? Thanks

I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8
Is there any way for me to install and run Keynote on this machine? Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Keynote '09 is compatible with your computer, but you won't get the latest Keynote version running that version. As you have an Early 2008 MacBook, first I recommend you to update to Mac OS X Snow Leopard to get newer versions of all applications but without losing any applications > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Make a backup before upgrading.
The DVD contains Mac OS X 10.6.3, so after upgrading, open  > Software Update to update to 10.6.8. Then, you will get access to the App Store.
However, the Keynote version available in the App Store is only compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or newer, so now you have two options:
1. Upgrade to OS X Lion and purchase Keynote from the App Store.
2. Keep Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, and buy Keynote on a DVD in eBay or Amazon. Note that you won't be running the most recent Keynote version, but it doesn't mind (the latest version only adds iCloud support)

I have tried to install and run Captivate 4 but it tell me I have this product installed on 2 other computers. I do not have this installed on any other computers.

I have tried to install and run Captivate 4 but it tell me I have this product installed on 2 other computers. I do not have this installed on any other computers.
How do I solve this issue so I can use the Captivate software?

- You can only sync with one iTune library but you can manually music music and vides with different computers. To do so go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- To get iTunes to see the iPod:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

Installing and running Arch linux on the new MacBook 2015

So Apple has just started taking orders for the new 2015 MacBook. You know --
the thinnest and lightest MacBook to date (even thinner than the MacBook Air),
with a 12 inch retina display, the Intel Core M processor, a single USB-C port,
and the new force touch trackpad.
I'm pretty sure there are a few people like me who'd like to buy this new
MacBook and then install and run Arch (or some other flavor of linux) on it.
But of course, this MacBook is in many ways very dissimilar to previous MacBook
Pros and MacBook Airs. So this thread is a shout out to likeminded individuals
who are willing to brave the odds and install Linux on this new machine, so we
can help each other figure out (and hopefully fix) the inevitable issues that
will arise when we venture into this uncharted territory!
I have a little bit of experience installing and running Arch on MacBook Pros
and other Apple computers, but I'm (very) far from being an expert. But based
on my limited experience, I think the following areas will pose the biggest
challenges to getting Linux properly up and running on the new MacBook:
1. Installation: it's possible that booting a live USB will fail. So we might
have to use a CD. Indeed, perhaps we may even have to build a special ISO
image for this laptop. And once the install is complete, EFI/EFISTUB booting
with/without refit/refind may or may not work. Also, installing a bootloader
(grub, gummiboot, etc.) for dual booting Mac OS X and Linux may be a
challenge. We might have to endure kernel panics and deal with cryptic error
messages while booting.
2. Wifi may or may not work reliably. We might have to do some tinkering with
different drivers, etc.
3. Battery life may not be very good. We might have to fix a few things here.
4. The HiDPI retina display may or may not work properly with specific window
managers/desktop environments. Fonts/icons might be too tiny, may not scale,
etc.
5. The new Force touch trackpad may not work out of the box. In fact, I'm
fairly sure the regular xf86-input-synaptics package won't play nice with
this trackpad. There may not be support for features like the trackpad's
haptic feedback, multi-finger gestures, pressure sensitivity, etc. Indeed,
this might actually take a while to get properly working under Linux.
6. I don't know if the new USB-C port will work out of the box. It may not
play nice with USB flash drives and other peripherals and there may be
issues with ehci/uhci/whatever.
I tried Googling around trying to learn as much as I could about the issues
above, but since the laptop is going on sale only today and most users are
probably not interested in running Linux on it, I came up quite empty. I think
many others on this forum might also have faced the same issue.
So here's an open invitation. Let's share our experiences trying to get linux
working on this laptop. If you buy this laptop and try to install Arch on
it, please let us know how it went! Even if some things work out of the box, it
might be useful for others to know, so please share.
And of course, if you have more information/gotchas: for example, if you
encountered and managed to fix one or more of the issues above, or you
encountered a problem that's not on the list above, or even if you tried
something and it didn't work out as expected, please post below. I'm sure this
will be a very big help to others trying to solve similar issues on the same
hardware. Thanks!

It would probably be beneficial to post the output of lsusb -vvvv and dmesg.

2. Broadcom BCM4360 AirPort Extreme, not supported.
5. The new Force touch trackpad and keyboard, both SPI bus devices, do not work.
On 2, it may just be a case of needing firmware, my laptop has a BCM43602 card, and the firmware required has only just been added to the linux-firmware package. Prior to that I had to install it manually.
On 5, I'm wondering if you identified them as SPI devices by looking in OS X, I ask because my laptop categorises my keyboard and trackpad in the same way. But they are actually still both connected to the USB bus, and presumably using SPI as an interconnect between the keyboard/trackpad and the microcontroller that tie them together.

Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?

Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?
I have been trying to install Photoshop CS6 & CC and Acrobat Pro XI on my Mac Pro (late 2013). I keep getting a 'configuration' error message and wondered if the problem was wide spread.

Thanks, Martin.
Good to hear someone has had success. The lack of it here is frustrating and depressing.
Thanks again,

HT4587 I downloaded Airport Express Utility 5.6 to get my Airport Express to work with the latest Mac OSX 10.7.4, but when I install and run it, it still says my Airport Express is out-of-date and needs the 5.6 utility.

I downloaded and installed Airport Express Utility 5.6 to get my old Airport Express to work with the latest Mac OSX 10.7.4, but when I install and run it, it still says my Airport Express is out-of-date and needs the 5.6 utility. What's up?

It is likely that you downloaded AirPort Utility 5.6.1. If you checked the requirements, this only runs on Leopard or Snow Leopard Macs.
You have Lion, so you need AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion

Anyone have experience installing and running the Condor Engineer QPC-1553 PXI board

Do anyone know how to installing and running the Condor Engineer QPC-1553 PXI board using their LabVIEW drivers?

Hi CEY,
as far as i know there are many documents with it. Install it like every other hardware. To test it there is a program from Condor Engineer. To build your application, there are good example for BC, BM and RT.

Hi ..
You can redownload previously purchased apps from the App Store using the same Apple ID on all your authorized Macs for free.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
