Can i have both Linux, Windows, and Leopard operating systems on my mac

Can i use Bootcamp to have a Leopard OS, a Linux OS, and a Windows OS partitioned on my single Macbook?

For Linux I much prefer having it under VMware Fusion because MacOS doesn't support ext3 and Linux doesn't support writing HFS, making it hard to share data between the two otherwise. The latest version of VMware Tools supports cut and paste between Linux and MacOS (last version of Parallels I used did not have ability to do cut and paste between Linux and MacOS and ran much slower with Linux) and Linux runs at pretty much full speed other than graphics (but I'm not running Linux for graphics, I'm running Linux for software development). Note that setting up your home directory (or a subdirectory thereof) as an NFS share, then mounting that within your Linux virtual machine, results in faster throughput than trying to do everything on the VMware virtual disk, all that lives on my VMware virtual disk is the actual operating system (I have my home directory mounted to a directory on my Mac where my source code lives). I usually use Aquamacs and p4v on the Mac side to actually edit and do source control on my source code, then pop down to the Linux window to compile it and do an initial smoke test to ensure that my fix actually fixed what I think it's supposed to fix, then pop back up to the Mac Finder to drag the result over to the open Finder window for the Engineering Test CIFS share on our corporate file server from whence the actual QA test systems in the lab can grab it and test it. It's a cool way to do Linux software development . Especially since I must develop for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms for multiple distributions of Linux, and VMware lets me fire up a couple of them at a time (why I have 8GB of RAM? Now you know!) to do all this in a sort of overlapping manner.
For Windows... meh. I've used both the latest Parallels and the latest VMware with Windows 7, and both of them are sluggish even after you turn off all the various GUI effects under Performance and Accessibility and if you don't give at least 2GB of memory to the virtualized Windows 7 it gets really slow if you try to do anything sizable at all (such as run Microsoft Office to edit things that for some reason don't edit correctly in OpenOffice/NeoOffice). So Boot Camp it is, especially for playing games, which simply is not acceptable at all under virtualized Windows 7. Oddly enough, Windows XP runs acceptably fast under both Parallels and VMware, so I'm not sure what Windows 7 is doing that makes it work so poorly under virtualization. But that's Microsoft for ya, I guess...

How can I have both genius playlist and regular playlist on my new 160g ipod classic. The list of songs are there, but when I click playlist, I only get the genius playlists.

How can I have both genius playlists and regular playlists available on my new 160g classic ipod. I can see my entire song list, but no playlist other than the 3 genius playlist I just made. Also how can I delete a genius playlist. Made the same playlist twice by mistake. Thanks.

This was not a simple task. Got it handled. Had to call Apple support. Apparently, the 160g only syncs the genius playlist. You have to go in and "tell it" to sync the entire playlist as well as the genius playlists. There is also an option for only syscing certain songs. On itunes, there is two sections; one for the stuff that is synced on your ipod and another separate list for the stuff in your library! This is exciting for me as I am not computer savvy to say the least.

Can I have both Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i servers on a s Solarix Box

Can I have both Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i servers installed on a single Solaris box !? Or say .. any other flavour of unix
Thanks in advance.

Yes! By all means, you can.
You will just have to install Oracle under different directories for different versions and set the ORACLE_HOME accordingly.

Can I have both Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 5 both installed on the same computer?

Can I have both Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 5 both installed on the same computer? I like the "fill light" feature in 3 and use it a lot. I would have not gotten 5 except that the images from my new Canon 5D Mk III are not re4cognized on 3. I have 5 on a laptop and 3 on my desktop but would like to have both on my desktop .

Yes you can do this, but you can also get rid of Lightroom 3 and use the "Fill Light" command in Lightroom 5. You need to set the Process Version to 2010 (default is 2012 in Lightroom 5). Use the menu command Settings > Process > 2010
But honestly, you would be wise to stop using "Fill Light", as the new sliders in Lightroom 5 produce superior image quality than anything you can come up with using "Fill Light". Yes, the new sliders take a little time to get used to, but your patience and effort learning the new sliders will be rewarded. You can find some tutorials and videos on using Process Version 2012 on that Internet thing.

Can you have both flex tools and automation running

HI
I might be wrong and I. Hope that I am!!!!
But I seemed to me that it created some automation on a track ...
And then realised after a while that the flex tool was turned off and when to switch it back on and the automation turned off..
I am right in thinking that you can't have both the automation and flex tool running at the same time...?????
Anyone out there know the answer...
Thanks!!!

It would appear that you can't be in both modes simultaneously. You toggle between them.
However, they are very different types of functions, and it would be difficult to manipulate Flex markers with Automation enabled. You'd be drawing nodes when you needed to be fixing timing issues.
Toggling between them is easy enough.

Can i have both a printer and a hard drive connected???

I have just got an airport extreme(802.11n). Its all set up and working aswell as a printer is connected to do wireless printing but i was wonder that if i split the usb on the back so that i could connect a hard drive and a printer at the same time will both be able to work at the same time? so can i have both?
thanks in advance

According to the Apple website, if you connect a USB hub to the back of the Airport Extreme you can connect multiple devices...
So yes it is possible, although I have yet to try this myself.

Share your hard drive
Now you can share an external USB hard drive over your wireless and wired network by simply connecting it to the USB port on your AirPort Extreme Base Station. Called AirPort Disk, it's perfect for sharing files, making backups, and more. You can even connect multiple drives and printers using a USB hub (sold separately). (See system requirements.)

For upgrade fastload, can you have CI in Windows and AS in zLINUX

Hello,
Based on the DB2 Cookbook, the fastload feature during upgrade is not available in Windows server and only in zLINUX.
Questions please
- can you have the CI in Windows and the apps server in zLINUX in the source and target systems?
- if possible, how can you 'force' the 'export' and 'import' process to run only in the zLINUX apps server?
Thanks,
Terry

Hi Terry,
let me answer your questions:
can we have the CI in windows and the apps server in zLINUX to be able to use the fastload feature?
We see no reason why the R3load based export and import for Unicode Conversion cannot be done on a DI. The R3load based steps belonging to the Upgrade will be done on your CI and without Fast Load.
Since we'll be using parallel export/impirt, can we have that set-up in both the source and target system?
Using parallel Export and Import should be fine.
And how can we put the export and import process to use the zLINUX servers in the export and import?
You just start the R3load processes on the Linux DI system instead of the CI.
If you plan to implement zLinux for the reason of the Unicode Migration only (and not for server consolidation for example), you might think of Linux on xSeries as well. You can reuse the same hardware as for Windows appservers and the Export/Import Tasks will not share CPU resources with the Database system.

Can I have both iMovie 09 and iMovie 08 installed on the same Mac?

Hi,
This question may seem odd, but... I work at a college. In my role there, I provide training for students and faculty using a variety of technologies (including the iLife suite). I would like to purchase and install iLife 09 for my Mac for personal and professional use; however, I also need to maintain iLife 08 applications for training purposes for work. Is it possible to have both versions installed simultaneously?
Thanks!

Yes, you can, although Apple does not support the methods shown below. Here's how you can do it:
_*If you have NOT installed the iLife09 upgrade yet......*_
a) Open Finder & click on the "Applications folder"
b) Click on the "New Folder" icon and name the folder anything you want (like iMovie08)
c) drag the iMovie.app into the folder
d) install iLife09....you will now be able to open iMovie09 by clicking on the icon in your dock, or open iMovie08 by going to the newly created folder and clicking on the older iMovie.app file.
_*If you have already installed iLife09........*_
----IMPORTANT----
*MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR MAC in case something goes wrong, such as a recent Time Machine backup so you can restore your files!!!! Also, make sure you have the original installation disks for both iLife08 and iLife09, or the OSX installation disks with iLife08 on it..........*
a) Open Finder & click on "Macintosh HD", then open the "Library" folder, then open the "Receipts" folder
b) Scroll down and find the files marked *iMovie.pkg, iMovie_712.pkg, iMovie_713.pkg, iMovie_714.pkg*, etc. You will not have all of those files, and the numbers may be different than 712 or 713, etc. Move these files to the Trash. *DO NOT MOVE iMovie_PreviousFolder.pkg or iMovieHD6.pkg to the Trash if you have them...keep them in the Receipts folder.*
c) Open Finder & click on the "Applications" folder, then find iMovie.app and move it to the Trash
d) Open Finder & click on the "Macintosh HD", then open the "Users" folder, then open your user folder (i.e., "Paul"), then open the "Library" folder, then open the "Preferences" folder, then move *com.apple.iMovie.plist, com.apple.iMovie7.plist and com.apple.iMovie8.plist* to the Trash. You may not have all of these files, or you may have different names for your preference files, but as a general rule, any preference files with the words iMovie should be moved to the trash.
e) Put your iLife08 or OSX install disk 1 in your DVD drive
f) Double-click on "iLife08.mpkg" (iLife08 install disk) or "Install Bundled Software only" (OSX install disk)
g) When the "Install iLife08" or "Install Bundled Applications" window appears, click on continue for all the agreements until you get to the "Standard Install" screen. Click on "Customize" and a new screen will appear with a list of all the applications (iLife08) or the words "Bundled Applications" in the OSX install disk, and next to those words is a small arrow....click on that to show the contents of the installation software. Uncheck all boxes except iMovie. Make sure that box is checked, then click on "Install" and follow all prompts to install iMovie08 back to your Mac.
h) Once iMovie08 is back in your Mac, you will need to move it to a new folder as follows:
i) Open Finder & click on the "Applications" folder
j) Click on the "New Folder" icon and name the folder anything you want (like iMovie08)
k) drag the iMovie.app into the folder
l) Now, reinstall iMovie09 as follows....
m) Put your iLife09 install disk in your DVD drive
n) Double-click on "iLife09.mpkg"
o) When the "Install iLife09" window appears, click on continue for all the agreements until you get to the "Standard Install" screen. Click on "Customize" and a new screen will appear with a list of all the applications. Uncheck all boxes except iMovie. Make sure that box is checked, then click on "Install" and follow all prompts to install iMovie09 back to your Mac.
p) You will now be able to open iMovie09 by clicking on the icon in your dock, or open iMovie08 by going to the newly created folder and clicking on the older iMovie.app file
Hope this helps!

I just upgraded from i-tunes 10 to i-tunes version 11.1.3 in order to sync my i-phone. All my libraries now come up now as one combined library, which makes it frustrating and difficult to find my songs. Can I have both the 10 and the new 11.1.3 on ?

I had to upgrade to i-tunes 11.1.3 from my old i-tunes 10 so that my i-phone could get synced to i-tunes. I used to have several i-tunes libraries on my computer for various subjects. Like for movies, bird recordings, and songs I wrote myself. Now when I open i-tunes all the libraries open up at once in one library, it is completely reorganized, making it almost impossible to find my old songs, playlists, movies, etc. I just got done organizing my libraries, and now its all confused and Im terribly frustrated. How can I get my old organization back, and is it possible to have several libraries again, or both the old and new i-tunes on the same hard drive? Anyone have any advice how to organize my new i-tunes ?

What a waste of space to paste the code.
Why not ask in the iLife > iPhoto forum where your question belongs.

Can I have both static text and the output of an array in the body of an email?

I have been scouring forums for something on this for a while now and have not found a whole lot. I'm trying to send a group of emails out to server owners in our company for a cleanup/consolidation project. I have a working script and of course now my boss
wants it changed. I have the script set up to find all the servers a person owns and put it into a CSV file. Then it attaches it to an email with instructions on how to get everything updated. Now my boss does not want the list in an attachment but right in
the body of the email. I'm pretty sure this is something Powershell can do, but I'm clueless on where to begin let alone how that would work.
Here is my current script minus the confidential stuff :) I just need to know where to start since it can't be in html format. I'd probably know if I knew powershell a little better, but well I've only been working with it for a few months now.
#Get SQL Database objects and places them into array $Sqldb

$adapter = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter("SELECT ServerName,Owner,SupportContact,SupportExternal,ServerDescription FROM v_ServerBook_BasicInfo",
$sqlConn)
$adapter.Fill($Sqldb)

$owners = $owners | where{$_ -ne "" -and $_ -ne $null -and $_ -ne [dbnull]::value}
foreach($owner in $owners){
#Get the servers for the current owner
$servers = $Sqldb | where{$_.owner -eq $owner}
#CSV output filename ($owner.csv)
$newfile = "\\file\path\$owner.csv"
#Export the servers to the filename
$servers | select ServerName, Owner, SupportContact, SupportExternal, ServerDescription | Export-Csv -path $newfile -NoTypeInformation
#copies the server owners name to $ownername variable
$ownerName = $owner
#switches the format of the ownername variable to lastname,firstname
$Username = "$($Owner.Split(" ")[1]), $($Owner.Split(" ")[0])"
#gets email address for owner from AD
$EmailAddress = Get-ADuser -Filter "Name -eq '$Username'" -properties emailaddress -server ads.domain.com | select-object emailaddress
#splits the $emailAddress vaiable to help eliminate extra text original text looks like @{emailaddress = [email protected]}
$Emailaddress = $Emailaddress -split '[=}]' ,0
#removes extra text at the beginning of the variable leaving just [email protected]
$Emailaddress = $Emailaddress.TrimStart("@{emailaddress")
#stores the body of the email into a variable
$message = "Hello,
Blah Blah Blahbity Blah
Thank You,
<Signature Block>"
#Sets the from email address
$emailFrom = "[email protected]"
#Sets the email subject
$subject="Test Email"
#sends the email with attachement for the current owner
Send-MailMessage -To "$EmailAddress" -Subject $subject -Body $message -SmtpServer "<smtp.domain.com>" -From $emailFrom -Attachments $newfile -DeliveryNotificationOption OnSuccess

So I can just put my output variable into the email body variable.... since it's a table with headers should I do anything special for formatting the table?
My output now looks like :
ServerName
Owner
SupportContact
SupportExternal
ServerDescription
Server1
Me
Me
TrendMicro OfficeScan 10.5
Server2
Me
Me
TrendMicro Deep Security Test
Server3
Me
Me
Test Server
Server4
Me
Me
Application Server
Well it's a little garbled there but you get the idea

Can I have both iMovie HD and iMovie 11 on the same computer?

I need to have both verisions on my computer. Is this possible?
iMovie HD and iMovie 09 or 11

Yes. I have iMovie HD and iMovie 8.

We have an Apple 9 and 10 operating system and want to get rid of the 9 how do we do that?

We have a power mac G4 with Operating Systems 10.3 on it and 9.0 and want to get rid of the 9.0 and only upgrade the 10.3 to Snow Leopard is that possible and what do we do? Does this mean when we bought this did they partition the drive, do we need to undo something to make this work properly?
Julie Reid

An alternate method is to just throw away the OS 9 System Folder (not the folder named System - that's OSX), and throw away the OS 9-only apps you might have.
Since it is OS 9.0, it can not be used as Classic - and so there should be no hooks to Classic in OSX that might prevent a casual removal via the Trash.
If OS 9 is on its own partition (the default is everyhting on one volume (partition), but any folks who have both OS's have placed OS 9 on its own partition), then you can erase just that partition.
Additional issue -
You mentioned installing Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6). Since you have a PowerMac, that's not possible. Snow Leopard will run only on machines having an Intel processor, which no PowerMac (or any machine capable of using OS 9) has.
Depending on other criteria, your machine may not even be suitable for Leopard (OSX 10.5). There are some minimum requirements that must be met - primarily a CPU (machine) speed of 867MHz (no stock machine capable of boooting to OS 9.0 has a processor that fast), plus some minimums with regard to RAM and available hard drive space.
The full specs for Leopard are shown in this Apple KBase article -

Can I have both iMovie 11 and iMovie 6 on the same computer?

I like the ease and layout of the previous iMovie. In my mind, it's quicker and more precise. But, at the same time, there are some good features of iMovie 11 I also like. So, I was going to download iMovie 6.0.3 and just use both of them, but then I started worrying that if I installed it, it might mess up iMovie 11, or the installation simply might not work. The pop-up window told me it is supposed to automatically upgrade anyway. I want both of them on the same computer, is that possible? Is it okay to just download and install it?

The famous 'free' 6.03 was NO fully functional version of iMovie!
It was just a special update for those, who didn't like then new iMovie08 - which wasn't more than just a demo, imho.With appearance of iM09, v6.03 was pulled by Apple…-
You need a 'real' installer disk with an old version of iLIfe to install iMHD6.
There's no legal way to download an obsolete version of iMovie.-
iMHD6 and actual iM11 can co-exist on the same Mac.
Afair, you need MacOS 10.6 to install it…
Search this board … there are many people still using iMovie-a.
