Bootcamp and windows seven (simple but i dont know the answer)

hey im Dylan Bollard
when you install Bootcamp on say a new IMac... do you need to install Windows 7 as well or does Bootcamp come with Windows 7.
also does the new IMac come with Bootcamp??
Any links or specs would be nice/helpful.
thank you,

Boot Camp Assistant is just a tool that simplifies the process of partitioning the hard drive and installing Windows. Windows does not come with a Mac nor with OS X. You must purchase a valid retail copy of Windows XP w/SP2 (32-bit only), Windows Vista, or Windows 7.
All Intel Macs come with OS X installed, and Boot Camp Assistant is an included application. Also see:
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak 2 or Vista. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
6. Last is Q. Q is a freeware emulator that is compatible with Intel Macs. It is much slower than the virtualization software, Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system.
See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion.
Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. The Boot Camp Beta that was used with Tiger has expired and is no longer available for use. So contrary to the other poster's comment, Boot Camp isn't truly "free." You must purchase Leopard or Snow Leopard to get it.

When purchasing a album on a new computer, it says I need to tell my least favorite teacher and best childhood friend but I dont remember the answers.

I cant purchase a album on itunes because this is the first time purchasing something on this computer and it says that i need to answer "who was your best child hood friend?" and "who was your least favorite teacher?" but i dont remember my answers. and i dont know how to get my answers back.

ChrisJ4203,
Thank you for the help. Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID. I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone. In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one. My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID. Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

please help!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

I found an iphone 4 and tried to bypass the passcode but as i moved on to try and use this iphone, it says that i have to contact the owner to give me the apple id and password but i dont know the owner

i have got an apple iphone 4 and want to use it...it says that i need to contact the owner of the iphone to give me the apple id and the password, but i dont know the owner because i found this iphone.....can you help me unlock this iphone ??

It doesn't belong to you. Turn it over to the police. You can't bypass the activation lock. It's doing exactly what it's designed to do, which is to prevent scum like you from using a lost or stolen phone.

I recently wanted to update my phone and so when i put it in recovery mode and tried to set it up it said that i had to enter the apple id that i used to set up the phone the first time but i dont know the information to my old account what do i do?

You will need to remember or find the id that you used, without it you won't be able to re-activate your phone - if you are on the activation screen then does that show the first letter of the id and the email provider's name ?
Do you know if you have any of the account's downloads in computer's iTunes library - if you do then you can get the id form that : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name.
If not then see if you can find it via http://appleid.apple.com : Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID.

You need the previous owner to unlock it, unless they do you have a brick there is no other way .
iPhone was probably stolen if you purchased on eBay, claim and get your money back

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only wipe your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

How do i reset my security questions? i dont know the answer and it wont let me buy anything until i answer them.

I'm trying to buy new music on iTunes, but I cant because it wants me to answer my two security questions that i dont know the answer to. I looked it up in customer service, but it says i need some rescue email that i never set up. Im confused and i just want to buy new music!

There is nothing that anyone in the forums can do for you. You have to contact iTunes Store Support about this now. You can email them from here. Click on iTunes Store support.

Or you can try calling one of the phone numbers and ask for iTunes Support and explain what you are trying to do.

Click here and search the article for '2 out of 3' without the quotes; this generally involves either a message being sent to your rescue email address or contacting the iTunes Store staff directly.
