Can I  run parallels in the new MBA?

I am interested in buying the new released MBA but I was wondering if the new machine has enough power to run parallels.

Yes it will run parallels, even the old model will run parallels. The only limitation in the past was hard drive space. The only current limitation is the amount of RAM available.

    If your Mac's compatible with Yosemite, you can upgrade directly to it.

    I did not deactivate a photoshop cs6 before there was a new "C" hard drive installed on my computer and a Win7 Pro fresh install too. How can I activate photoshop on the new hardware if I can't deactivate it on the old hardware that is no longer available? Any help will be appreciated.

    If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate.  The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

  • Can Bootcamp and Parallels share the same Windows applications and data?

    I'm looking at getting an Intel iMac which will let me throw away my old PC - Yeah!
    I will have a couple of Win apps that I will need to hang on to (Quicken - Quicken for Mac is horrible, but that's another tghread). Anyway, can Bootcamp and Parallels share the same Windows applications and data?
    My thought would be to allow my wife to access Quicken from Parallels and not have to reboot. She will only need lightweight access and the overhead of running virtualization wouldn't impact her. I, on the other hand, would want to occasionally boot natively into Windows and run the same application with the same datafile. Is this possible?
    Thanks and looking forward to joining the MacIntel world!

    Thanks for all of the freplies. I suspected that BootCamp and Parallels could not shar ethe same partition, but wanted to verify. To address some of the other posts:
    Re: Quicken vs MoneyDance - I looked at MoneyDance a while back and while it is comparable to Quicken for Mac, it isn't comparable to Quicken for Windows (ergo, Quicken for Mac isn't comparable to Quicken for Windows!). But, as I said, that is a topic for another thread!
    Re: Using Bootcamp/Parallels for only one app: I actually have several apps that I still need access to on Windows. I work with many business applications than only run/are supported on Windows as well as receive some complex Office documents which Office for Mac cannot handle. Quicken (for Windows 2007) was just the best example of a consumer app where I could see wanting access from both OS X and Windows.

  • Can Minidisplay Port work with the new Thunderbolt Display?

    I have a 2009 MBP 15 inch with Mindisplayport.
    Can Minidisplay Port work with the new Thunderbolt Display?
    If not, is there any adaptor i can use to make it work.
    I also have the new MBA with thunderbolt socket.
    Cannot decide which display to get.
    Thanks.

    Here's a new article that basically covers and clears up all the new Thunderbolt display questions (same things I previously stated).

  • Should new Bootcamp be released for the New MBA?

    Many people installed windows by bootcamp on the New MBA but most of them included me found no internet network. it is commonly explained that bacause the New MBA too new, bootcamp does not support wifi driver for it. I am waiting an update of bootcamp to experience windows on my New MBA. Come on Apple ^.^

    Same problem here, I posted my problems in detail and another user posted a "double option-reboot into windows" workaround in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22553442#22553442
    mendel, I'd love to log a bureport but I can't submit as the webpage tells me that "You must be a Registered Apple Developer to file bugs via Bug Reporter." and I am not able to register.
    Has someone else in this thread logged this nagging bug?

    As of EHP3, you could still install some EHP components. On an ERP 6.00, you could just push SAP_APP to 6.03 and move on. Now if you want another component in your system with an EHP4 version, you can't have some components at EHP3 and some at EHP4. You would install EHP4 for the new component you desire updated and part of the work will be to also update SAP_APP to 6.04.
    EHP4 is an UPGRADE process, with shadow instance & all the joy of an upgrade process. You can either run ressource minimized or downtime minimized. In resource minimized, the shadow instance runs on the same server as the main instance. Downtime minimized allow to run the shadow instance on a separate / new server. Anyway you go, you will always have a "Downtime Phase" when you bring back the updated components from the shadow instance toward the real production one.
    As with any UPGRADE project, the benefits of installing EHP4 for your business has to weighted against the downtime cost.
    Our tests so far on small systems (few data, few users, 120GB database) show ~3 days process from EHP3 to EHP4 (all components) with a downtime phase of about 22 hours using the "resource minimized" path, i.e. shadow & main instance on the same server (4 CPUs, 16GB RAM). Until you give a try at your Sandbox or DEV systems, you won't have realistic figures for your environment.
    Good luck!

  • How do you install QuickTime 7 on the new MBA?

    Just got new MBA.
    I own a QT7 Pro license and would like to use it. Problem is: how do I get QT 7 installed?
    Downloaded QT 7.66: installation denied.
    Inserted MBA USB installation stick, rebooted as prompted but where is the option to install QT 7?
    Hope you can help. Thanks.

    Thanks Dave. But what you suggest is exactly what I did BEFORE posting and without success.
    So, in order to answer you:
    1. "optional installs": none on the new MBA usb stick (which replaces the installation DVD).
    2. your link: that's all very well but once you're trying to install QT, as mentioned in my post, Mac OS 10.6.5 doesn't let you.
    Any suggestions?

  • I thought the new MBA Mid 2012 would ship with ML OS X?

    ^ title.
    I know you can download a copy of the new ML for free if you're eligble.
    However, I thought the MBA would already come installed ML? Mine came with SL?

    It wouldn't have come with Snow Leopard.  If it doesn't have Mountain Lion then it would be Lion.  You can check in  > About this Mac.
    10.8  is Mountain Lion
    10.7 is Lion
    10.6 SL

  • Can we put lyrics on the new ipad 3 on ios6.0.1?

    i have an ipad 3 running on the latest ios 6.0.1 and i need to know that can i put lyrics on the new ipad ....
    i have already put the lyrics on itunes but i don't know how to open it in the ipad.....

    The Music app on iOS 6 doesn't support lyrics (it was removed in iOS 5 for some reason) - you can try leaving feedback for Apple id if it's something that you'd like to have back : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
    In the meantime, there may be third-party music apps in the store that support lyrics.

  • The older version allowed me to save all open tabs by giving it a name, i.e. April 29, but I can't find it in the new version. Is there anything like it available? If so, I really want it back

    Tonight, for example, I have many tabs open which I'd like to close but re-open tomorrow.
    I'd like to save them all as "April 30" in my Bookmarks... the 0ld version allowed me to do this, but I can't find this in the new version.
    The only way I don't seem to lose those open tabs I'm working with is by doing "Contol + Delete", but I know this shouldn't be done all the time...
    There must be a better way, but if there isn't, would I be able to get back and work with the old version?
