BootCamp works fine, Parallels no US-Support, WMWare give Kernel Panics

Hello
I am looking for a solution to get a virtual envoirement running on some mac.
We have some industrial applications connected over USB running with Windows XP Pro. Bootcamp is for us not usefull because we need mac and windows apps at the same time
1) Installing it in BootCamp everthing works fine and the machines are able to communicate with the windows Software
2) Installing Parallels 4 is possible. We see the machine with USB and load the drivers with Parallels is not able to communicate with the machine. We tried both, a clean windows install and a migration of the working bootcamp volume. Both without success (all patches and tools are loaded)
3) Installing VMWare Fusion 2.01 works at the first impression. The Drivers are loaded The Apps are able to communicate with the machine but as soon as the Apps are closed it gives a kernel panics (any idea how to restart remotely??)
Also here we tried both, a clean windows install and a migration of the working bootcamp volume. Both without success (all patches and tools are loaded)
The developer of the machine only support windows and has no interest to debug and find a solution. BootCamp works so the Apps are OK for me.
The Support of Parallels is very bad. I bought a support ticket but no reactions within 24 hours. For VMWare I was to late to get support.
Does someone know of such a bug in VMWare or is this more a bug of OS X 10.5.6, The VMWare Fusion 2.0.1 is from the time OS X 10.5.5 was available. On the Support side of VMWare I doesn't find any solution regarding Kernel Panics
Who is able to help me?
Regards
Gérard

Brand new Macbook air. 10.7.3 . Random Kernel panics daily. Firefox, Word docs. opening sytem preferences, clicking on a link, just about anything crashes the system. Apple told me to take it to a local tech. He found nothing wrong with hardware. . Also shuts down (power off) after lid is closed on battery power. Did smc reset with no results. Computer is almost unusable for any real work. we have three other macs with 10.6 that have never crashed in three years. Lion has issues! Need fix

Apple support in Thailand, Kernel Panic all the time

I bought a new MacBookPro about three months ago in Sweden, and have had ALOT of kernel panics, after spending time trying to fix the error, doing hardware tests, RAM memory tests, etc, I no longer want to spend time trying to fix something that is suppose to work from the beginning.
I need to get in contact with Apple support here in Thailand, were I now live. I can not find any local phone numbers or anything, and also want it repaired, or fixed.
Does anyone knows anything about the support here?

This is the latest kernel log

OT: Site works fine on Win2K IIS5 - throws an error on Win2K3 IIS6

Hi,
I've had serious server trouble and have moved some sites to
a new Win2K3
server running IIS6.
Of the sites that have been moved (all of which were working
fine prior to
moving), one now gives me this error:
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0116'
Missing close of script delimiter
/curve/curve_login.asp, line 5
The Script block lacks the close of script tag (%>).
I have not changed anything in the code. I have simply moved
the files to
the new server.
In testing, if I remove the block of ASP code that handles
the login (all
enclosed in <% %> tags) then the page loads. If I put
the code back ointo
the page, I get this error.
The code works fine and has done for a year without issue on
Win2K IIS5 - so
I have to think that this is an issue outside of the code,
but what?
I have very similar login code on other sites that I have
moved and thay are
not causing me issues
Any ideas or suggestions would be most appreciated as this
site has
basically been offline for a week now and I'm going insane!
Cheers,
Rob

I'd have to see the code...
It would not be unusual for a new version of the ASP DLL to
be less
forgiving than an older version.

I installed windows 7 with bootcamp, also the support software with the drivers. Everything works fine, but my usb hubs don't work on windows. Can Anybody help me?I´m using an iMac with OSX.

I Installed windows with bootcamp on my imac, with the support software(drivers,etc).
Windows works perfectly appart from the usb hubs.
Can anyone help me?

Hello,
Are these the built in hubs, or external ones?
If external, are they bus powered or do they have their own AC power?

I have an imac bought late 2013, can i use it as a display for the new mac pro? I also want to use windows 8 on it, would this work with parallels or bootcamp?

I have an imac bought late 2013, can i use it as a display for the new mac pro? I also want to use windows 8 on it, would this work with parallels or bootcamp?

Yes, it supports target display mode. Windows can be run with either Parallels or Boot Camp.

HP F4580 on Imac in windows 7 bootcamp, won't install "no usb support" works OK on Mac side

Trying to install my HP F4580 so I can print from the Windows partition on my iMac,. Downloaded and ran the drvier utility but it fails saying "this PC has no USB support". Whereas the printer works fine on the Mac side of the partition.
This question was solved.

Hi,
Although installing the printer on Windows by using Bootcamp may work, it is not guaranteed...
The windows OS actually being installed as a virtual envoirnment, which means your Windows OS is using your Mac OS USB drivers as the host, and not those intended for Windows.
Therefore it is not being recognized by the software.
You may find some more information at the document below:

Bootcamp has stopped recognizing that it has a modem. Drivers are up to date, no malware, modem works fine in OSx.

I use OSx for work-related purposes, but my family uses bootcamp. This has worked well for us for about 2 years.
About three weeks ago, bootcamp suddenly started struggling with the wireless internet connection...lots of little drops usually (but not always) followed by quick reacquisitions. This problem did not (and does not) occur in OSx or for any other device in our house.
I looked into the drivers, and they were all up to date. I then initiated a scortched earth campaign of antivirus and malware detection, thinking maybe something snuck in via my son's Steam account or whatever....but this actually brought up nothing at all. Still, the problem continued.
And then, early yesterday, bootcamp stopped recognizing that it even has a wireless modem (in the middle of a session; the computer booted up with internet, then the modem "vanished" after 30-40 minutes). It now only recognizes ethernet cables as a viable internet source.
OSx, again, continues to work fine.

Can you check Control Panel -> Hardware -> Network Adapters and post a screen shot? If it it works correctly in OSX, the hardware is fine. It must be a driver update? Is Windows setup for Automatic Updates.
One option is to find the appropriate BC drivers using System requirements to install Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp - Apple Support and then Boot Camp: Install or repair Boot Camp drivers to go back to the original Apple drivers.

I'm new to the Mac world. I installed my Epson printer on my IMAC and it worked fine. Then I installed Windows7 through Bootcamp and I think it reconfigured a port and now I get a communication error and it won't print. Any help on how do to fix this?

Sorry, I'm new to the Mac world. I recently got a new IMAC and installed my Epson CX5800F printer and it worked fine. Then a few weeks later I installed Windows7 through Bootcamp and I think it reconfigured a port or something and now I get a communication error and it won't print. Can anyone help me with this problem, and/or help me get the port back the way it was? Thanks, Barry

My apple camera connector comes up with an error "this accessorty is not supported.." on my iPhone 4 now that I have updated to iOS7, previously it worked fine. Any suggestions?

I have an iPhone 4 and a camera card connector (bought from apple) which worked fine together, then I updated to iOS7 and now when I plug it in it says " This accessory is not supported by this iPhone."
Any suggestions on how to get my certified apple camera connector working with my iPhone again would be greatly appreciated. I really wish I hadn't updated to iOS7....
Thanks

I have an Epson scanner that is apparently no longer supported because it is a PowerPC app. It's a very good scanner that worked fine until I upgraded to OS Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro. Any suggestions on how I can continue to use it?

Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
However .... I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try.

After using my iPod classic in my infinity G35 a few weeks ago, I took it out of the car and it no longer works. Just a white screen with the web address for Apple iPod support. Worked fine when hooked up to iPod jack in car. But wont work anywhere now

After using my iPod classic in my infinity G35 a for the last few weeks, I took it out of the car and it no longer works. Just a white screen with the web address for Apple iPod support. Worked fine when hooked up to iPod jack in car. But won't work anywhere now. I tried re-setting but has not worked. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

HT5219 how can I connect two thunderbolt monitors to my macmini in windows 8 and bootcamp? Works fine in OSX

how can I connect two thunderbolt monitors to my macmini in windows 8 and bootcamp? Works fine in OSX

Did you try to hook up both monitors to the Belkin adaptor? Trying will determine if your monitor has a bad input port. See if the Belkin adaptor is the problem. I have never used that specific adaptor, but I have always had luck with the Dr. Bott's DVI for ADC adaptor. Best of luck.

I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imac so I could install Windows 7 Home Premium and had no trouble everthing is working fine the only question I have is is there a benefit to migrating the 2 together and what happens when I do Thanks. Ricco

I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imack so I could install Windows 7 Home Premiumwith no problem and everthing is working fine, and I was thinking of Migrating the 2 2 and was wondering what benefits there would be and what happens when I do.

Windows 7 will peer down through the VM and remember what hardware the VM is installed on. Migrate the VM to different Mac hardware, and on first boot, Windows 7 will advise you that you are not using genuine Microsoft Windows. It will then treat you as though it believes you misappropriated it.

Hyper-v cannot boot Gen2 guest from Windows 2012 R2 or Windows 8.1 x64 ISO - file format not supported, Gen1 works fine

I am new to Gen2 Hyper-V and so far I simply can't use it, because I am unable to install any (supported) guest OS from an ISO ...
So far I tried that on:
1. my HP Z230/i4770 workstation (Secure Boot disabled) host running Windows 8.1 Pro x64 (with Hyper-V feature enabled), can't boot any VM with supported OS ISO.
2. my home desktop/i3770K (secure Boot enabled) host running Windows 8.1 Pro x64, same result, error during VM boot from ISO, quoted below.
Synthetic SCSI controller (instance blah blah) Failed to Power on with Error 'The version does not support this version of file format'
Gen1 guests of course work perfectly fine with those ISOs, because emulated DVD IDE picks up the official Enterprise Evaluation ISO of either Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows 8.1 x64 Enterprise, perfectly fine and all works OK in Legacy boot mode.
When I create a new guest and select Gen2, then no matter if I check or uncheck the Secure Boot in virtual Boot Order options for the guest (while setting the SCSI DVD at top of course), it simply doesn't work, always same error. I tried first connecting
to VM to see if it prompts for key press, but it doesn't, the error is instant on Power on when (supported) ISO image is selected to be booted.
I verified that both of official Enterprise Evaluation ISO's of either WS2012r2 and W8.1x64 are bootable in both the UEFI mode (Secure Boot enabled) and Legacy BIOS mode using a physical computer.
What am I missing here???

FYI, above is wrong! it's not about linking ISO to virtual DVD or selecting "Install OS later", it's all about the location of the ISO file and share permissions on parent folder!
I was actually suspecting several issues, but haven't had time to test it, was thinking about issues like assigning (or not) some of initial settings during Gen2 VM creation, e.g.:
-Network connection through virtual switch or Not Connected (make no different if assigned or not)
-Memory above 4096MB (makes no difference if < or > 4096MB)
-ISO file location (makes huge difference!)
The ISO file CANNOT be placed on network share OR in shared folder on same local drive as the VHDX file (works fine if parent folder is not shared).
I can now replicate the issue easily every time and it always fails with file format unsupported message whenever I have the ISO file located either on remote network share, or (fails the same way too) when I have the ISO file placed locally (on host drive)
when simply a parent folder is shared... must be some permissions issue... and a pretty dumb one considering that in production environments nearly everything is placed on remote file servers ...
... so the moral of the story is, if you want to install Gen2 VM in win8/2012 hyper-V then you must copy the ISO file to Hyper-V host drive AND make sure the parent folder is not shared. works every time now! :)

BootCamp works fine, Parallels no US-Support, WMWare give Kernel Panics
