Can I partition a mac twice on the same volume
can I partition a mac twice on the same volume
Allan,
I know it sounds flunky but here is why I asked the question. My wife uses Windows (I have Windows 7 on a partitrion on my iMac) but the last time I started the copmpuWindows does not work and Microsoft wants me to buy another one!! Go figure huh? This all started coming into my head when I fouynd that I canot get Firefox to work on the site that my wife works on. I have downloaded and installed all the required software for that site but it still will not respond to our input. The site works fine on Windows with Firefox 17 (after several installations of the required software, but to date I have not been able to get Firefox to work on my Max like it is supposed to work. If you have any insights to that problem it would be appreciated by both me and my wife.
Thanks again for your help.

How can I make all 40 audio clips the same volume?
Hello, all!
I'm finishing up a General Orientation video for new employees in Yellowstone National Park and am-this-close to being finished!
I'm creating the video in Premier Elements 9 with some video footage and some still photos blended together. (Yes, I tried to "Ken Burns" it... he would laugh out loud if he saw my version!)
I've narrated most of it in individual WAV. clips that I've inserted into the audio timeline under each video segment.
I have about 40 audio clips, and even though I used a decent microphone, I still find that each clip has a slightly different volume that is really noticeable when the video DVD plays on TV. I'm realizing that I should have made an effort to keep a standard distance from the mic when recording. Hindsight is 20-20.
I have been trying to change the volume on each clip to make them all the same volume, and it's making me a little crazy.
Is there any way for me to capture all the audio at one time and make an adjustment that would make all of them the same volume? I tried CTL-A and then did "normalize" on it, but it seemed to make very little/or no difference when viewing.
Any advice would be really appreciated!
Signed, the lone creative video girl in Yellowstone.You are most welcome, and it has been a great day. Thanks!
Good luck, and pay close attention to the differences between Clip Keyframes and Track Keyframes. They accomplish the same result, but have differences.
Good luck,

My mac mini will only get a max of 18mgb through a bt infinity hub 3 yet standing at the side of my mini I can get 37.5 on an apple iphone, is it possible to get the same connection on my mac. The hub has been replaced and the wiring checked, using an ether net connection I can get 37.5 but it's not really practicable to use this type of connection
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying Wifi.

Can more than one Mac backup on the same Time Machine?
My husbond and I have one USB HD connected to an Airport Express router and we both want to back up our Macs on the same HD.
There is space enought (300Gb). But it seems like after my Mac is set up and running TM, his Mac will not event connect to the disk. He can see the disk, but in TM, when he trys to connect, the "on-Off"- button switches to "Off".
Is there a limitation on one user only?
Thanks for any help!!
SitaraThere is no single-user limitation to Time Machine.
Are you saying that you can see the TM backup volume in the Finder, you start up TM Preferences, press the Change Disk button, select the TM backup volume, and when you press Use For Backup, the TM slider turns off? And you can't turn it back on? -
I want to install snow leopard in my macbook (late 2006), but Im going to change my hard drive in two months. So i dont know if I have to wait for my new hard drive or not.
You're not breaching the licence (if I read your question correctly) as the OS will only be residing on one computer at once. Re-installing after changing the HD is a normal procedure.
Although the easiest way to do that is to put the new HD in an external enclosure, format it for Mac and clone the existing drive to it using the Restore function in Disk Utility or one of the backup cloning applications like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper.
Then swap the drives and you're up and running instantly. -
How can i use a component twice in the same movie clip
Excuse me am a beginner in this as2
below is the script used:
PeelIt is a component.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////1st frame contains the below:
PeelIt._visible = false;
PeelIt.init();
PeelIt.Peel();
///////////////////////////////////////////////// then on 2 different buttons:
on (release){
this._parent.PeelIt._visible = true;
this._parent.PeelIt.Stick();
and
on (release){
this._parent.PeelIt.Peel();
1st problem: i need this component to work when the swf loads instead of (on release),
2nd problem: i need to introduce several frames with different movieclips using the component, how can i do so.
thank youuse:
PeelIt.init();
PeelIt.Peel();PeelIt._visible = true;
PeelIt.Stick();
PeelIt.Peel();
and just add the component to each movieclip. -
I installed Windows 7 in my Macbook pro, I can access Windows data in Mac, but I can't copy and delete it. and the same case while i am working in Windows. Could you please guide me if there is any solution, where I could copy/paste/delete my data.
OS X can natively read NTFS of Windows, but not write to it.
Windows can't read or write to HFS+ of OSX, and that's a good thing from a security standpoint.
Ideally if you share files between operating systems you should have a FAT/MSDOS formated USB key or hard drive. (exFAT external drive if any of your files are over 4GB in size) both these formats are universal for OS X or Windows.
If you install software into Windows and OS X to read each others formats, then you have to pay to update/upgrade it deal with headaches.
If you swtich between Windows and OS X a lot, don't need full hardware performance for Windows, you may consider installing virtual machine software like VMFusion or Parallels which can take a copy of your Windows in Bootcamp and place it into OS X as a file then run that copy of Windows in a window in OS X like so.
Advantage here is you run most of your light weight Windows programs like this at the same time as OS X.
Benefit is you can run just about any Windows or Linux version and OSX server editions (not client versions)
Bootcamp only allows Windows 7, that's it now.
You'll also be interested in two fre pieces of software, Carbon Copy Cloner and Winclone on macupdate.com.
CCC clones OS X partition and Winclone clones the Bootcamp partition. Valuable for you.
Good Luck -
Hi, in preparation for installing bootcamp and windows 7, and in the absence of a DVD drive on my MacBook Air, can I partition my Mac external drive to have an ISO image file location for Windows downloads?

How can multiple Mac users have the same iTunes?
I have a MacBook, and my wife and I have separate accounts on it. It's easier that way for separate Facebook accounts, email, etc. However, it's complicated when it comes to iTunes and applications. We both want to use the same iTunes library. We have iTunes Match, but I'd rather not re-download my entire library when it's already on my computer just so we both have access to it. I tried following the directions at this article, but it didn't work. So, how can both my wife and I, from different accounts on the same Mac (and using the same Apple ID) access the same iTunes library and have any changes reflected on both accounts?
Obviously, if you just need to copy those iTunes folders, you don't need the ability to write; just the ability to read, which you already have.
Besides, the /Users/Shared folder is indeed an excellent location for a shared iTunes library; I hadn't yet considered that. Ignore all the above instructions. First, make sure your two iTunes libraries are in sync. Use an external hard drive (or mess with permissions) to do what copying you need to. Then go into iTunes and iTunes>Preferences...>Advanced and change the iTunes Media folder location to /Users/Shared. All of your iTunes content should be copied (or moved) into /Users/Shared.
After that, do the same thing in the other account, and both your iTunes libraries will now be pointed to the same location. -
Can someone please tell me why when i order an app on my sons ipod, do I get charged twice for it? When I tried do report a problem with the charge, it said that I can not get a refund on that item. This is the second time this has happened to me. Does it have anything to do with having more then one ipod linked to the same account? Thanks for any help you can give me!!!
It has nothing to do with have more than one device using that account.
After you purchase it once, you redownload it on other devices by the following, not like purchasing a new app.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If you really got charged twice for purchases the same app twice with the same account contact iTunes again by:
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
Make sure that they are really the same app first. -
I purchased new computers twice within the same year because they were damaged in a storm. However, I can't deauthorize/reauthorize the new computers because it has been less than a year. How do I deal with this situation?

I have 3 Computers at home, I am studying computer sciences and am constantly rerformatting my computers, installing windows and linux over and over again....

Anyways after deauthorizing all my computers in september I was not aware I couldn't do it for another year (why does APPLE assume these stupid tactics prevent piracy). Anywysw I need to reach apple and have them make it so I can do it again. I had a similar problem with Playstation and when I called them they fixed it for me... even windows (which you can only have one serial per computer) made it easy because all I had to do was call them and they fixed it for me. Now I need APPLE to do the same and this is the only place I could see to actually say what is going on... I can't believe I have to do this with my iPhone... I wanted an mp3 player and a phone together and if I can't put new songs until September 20, 2012 I am going to freak out!
HELP!

Can I store multiple bootable images in the same partition?
Can I store multiple bootable images in the same partition or do they each need their own partition? I am going to use disk utility to create a copy of my current OSX 10.5 system on a new external drive before upgrading to Snow Leopard. Then I want to create a bootable copy of Snow Leopard. Can I create one partion large enoough to hold both images or will I need to create a separate partition for each. I have done booting off of an external hard drive and it works well. I do not know how the system sees this and thus if I store both images on the same partition, will it give me both as a boot option at startup or will it see only one?
They will need separate partitions to be bootable

I bought a Mountain Lion upgrade for $20 off the Apple site. I have four other Macs all under the same ID. How can I share the new OS with other computers. Or can I?
You can share it with other Macs under your control (not your neighbor's). You just need to be logged in under the buying AppleID for updates or to download again.

We are Mac beginners, considerin a Mac for a family Christmas gift. We currently share one windows based pc. Does anyone use a Mac AND a pc in their household? Would the two systems interface? (Can you start your homework on one system, but finish it on another?) Can they both be hooked up to the same printer? What advice would you give us as we consider this big purchase?
