Anyone tried the Code Weavers version of Wine (for Windows apps)?

I am absolutely in love with my MacBook Pro, but I am constantly frustrated by the office:mac suite that we are forced to use. I have considered installing Parallels and a copy of XP so as to allow me to use the Windows version of Office, but I have no desire to pollute my Mac's hard drive with Windows. This CodeWeavers software (called CrossOver Mac) looks promising - Windows apps in the OSX enviornment, without having to load Windows. I'm just curious if anyone on here has tried it yet...

Did you have much success with this program?

  • Anyone tried the next-day-retail-pickup option for an iPhone 5?

    Has anyone here tried the next-day-retail-pickup option for an iPhone 5?  
    Has anyone tried it - but still not gotten one?
    Right now I have my iPhone 5 ordered online through Apple.   It's not expected for a few more weeks, alas.
    Two days after I placed that order , Apple announced that you could order online after 10pm for next day pickup at a retail store.
    I called Apple to ask if I could simply "convert" my existing order to a next day pickup.
    I was told that I'd have to (1) cancel the online order (2) maybe wait a day for my upgrade-pricing eligibility to reset and THEN (3) place the order online after 10pm.
    BUT - she also added that even the next-day-pickup orders were subject to stores' inventory.  
    So, I called my local store to ask about availability.   Rather than telling me anything about their current inventory, the gal there just repeated that I should order online after 10pm.
    Of course, the entire point of my doing this would be to reduce my wait time (not roll the dice on MAYBE reducing my wait time.)  
    Yet apparently my only option is to "step out of line" with my existing online order before I can even see how long the line is for in-store pickup.  
    If it turns out I'll have to keep trying again every night after 10pm in the HOPE that maybe this time there'll be an iPhone 5 available for the next day, then I go from my current 2-3 week wait to a god-only-knows-how-long wait, with nightly online order attempts.   
    There's no way for me to adequately express my distaste for this catch-22 without using verboten language. 
    If anyone has an idea how I can TRY the next-day-pickup trick WITHOUT first squandering the 2 weeks I've already been in the online queue - please let me know. 

    i have the same dilema brian. Does anybody know how many reservations there are a day?
    What are the odds of getting a space?
    I might as well enter the x factor phone in and hope i win!!! f'ing joke.
    I'm going to phone local store and ask how many iphones are sold each day.
    Meanwhile wait 4 weeks for online order. Ha!

  • How do I download the 64-Bit version of iTunes for Windows 7?

    I just got a new computer with Windows 7 O.S. I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes to the computer, but when I try to install it, I am getting a message telling me I need the 64-Bit version, but I have downloaded the 32-Bit version.
    I have tried to find the 64-bit version but am having no luck finding it. Can someone please point me in the right direction with a link to the 64-Bit version. Thank you very much.
    Joie

    Head to the downloads page, Joie:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Down at the bottom left (scroll down if necessary?), you should see:
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    ... click the *64-bit installer* text to go to a downloads page for the latest version of the 64-bit installer.

  • Every time I connect my iPod/iPhone to itunes it say it will not connect because I need the 64 bit version of iTunes for Windows. But I do...

    I have reinstalled iTunes over 20 times at this point. I've also tried standalone installers for the mobile support. NONE of it is working. This computer is brand new and should have no issues with functionality towards iTunes. This makes absolutely no sense. Please help. I do have the 64 bit version for Windows currently installed.

    Same problem. 

  • After downloading and installing the 64-bit version of iTunes for Windows I get a "Congratulations, you've successfully installed iTunes" message. However, when I plug in my iPhone to synch it I get a message that says that I don't the 64-bit version??

    After downloading the 64-bit version of iTunes on my Windows 7 machine I get the "Congratulations, you've successfully installed iTunes" message.  However, when I plug in my iPhone I get an error message that says, in part, "...the required software is not installed.  Run the installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes".  I've been at this for hours, carefully deleting all Apple software (Apple Mobile Support, Quicktime, etc. and before each attempt to install the 64-bit version from Apple ( no third parties).  Same result each time!!!  Any ideas????

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now?

  • Anyone have the apple macbook air(2011) drivers for windows 7?

    I have erase the Lion OS completly from the ssd , and have installed Windows 7 ultimate, and now after reading and watching on youtube , it seams that i need to make some sort of CD with windows suport from apple ... using boot camp, as i don't have mac OS anymore , i don't have access to boot camp (this is provided only for mac OS user) , so my question is ... if somone with a macbook air i5 with 4g of ram and 128 sdd 13 inch screen , can HELP me , by downloding using boot camp the drivers that i need for windows, and upload them somewhere so i can downlodthem i would be trully gratefully to that person.
    So if anyone can help me with that ... PLS HELP!! thank you in advance.

    Ok, I found a link to download the drivers,I believe that the latest 7zip will unpack pkg files for you in windows.
    (if not you might need access to a mac to unpack them.)
    The link is from a post elsewhere on this forum about being unable to download the drivers via lion, so seems to be quite safe.

  • How can I make the newest version of iTunes for Windows run faster?

    I know I'm not the only one when I say that iTunes is by far one of the slowest programs on my computer.  I'm running Windows 7 and running the most recent version of iTunes for Windows.  Does anyone have some tips to make it run faster and smoother?  I have Genius and Ping disabled, but I'm not quite sure what else I can do.

    The newest version of iTunes should install if you are runnig 10.7.
    Do you get any error messages?

  • Has anyone tried the Yosemite beta?

    Has anyone tried the Yosemite beta?  Or shall I just wait for the official version to come out?

    Beta OS software should only be installed on a test machine, NEVER a primary device, and honestly only by someone with a compelling reason (testing, development).
    Yes, wait for final version this fall.

  • Has anyone tried the new MS Oracle DataProvider ?

    Hi all.
    Has anyone tried the Microsoft issued Oracle .Net data provider? I am not fond of switching horses in midstream (have been struggling with ODP for a few weeks). I do not like the ODP for these reasons...
    1) Documentation is really non-existant/useless especially where hueristics and 'gotchas' are concerned
    2) it is a HUGE install (why I have no idea)
    3) some things simply do not work (like my recent rants on trying to return varchar2's from stored procs and functions).
    Is the MS any better ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    1) There is a pdf doc and integrated help which comes with the ODP.NET. There are a few gotchas which could cause some hair-pulling moments. Sometimes it helps to read the same doc several times to really know what to do.
    But instead of wasting time reading the doc, the samples cover most of the typical cases. (i think it includes your varchar2 output bind case).
    2) The huge install is due to Oracle Client 9. The provider needs several dlls beyond Oracle.DataAccess.dll and OraOps9.dll. There are some other oracle standard dependencies also. MS provider for oracle will have the same issue (I think they need oracle client install also).
    There a few post where the `Instant client install` is going to solve that.
    But the thin client (like JDBC thin driver for oracle) is still (IMHO) the best solution for the huge install problem.
    3) See my reply in the other post. (try the sample also)
    Finally, which some other posters have mentioned before: Good luck looking for help for MS's provider when you are stuck.
