Can I use my Leopard (OS 10.5.8) to write a downloaded Windows file to a cd without being able to read the file?

Thanks, Zombaby.
I was trying to drag and drop the file out of the download file instead of where the actual file was stored.
This it doesn't do.
All these little twists between the brain and  success. 
Thanks again.

    Does Firefox switch to full screen if you press F11 ?
    You can also try the F10 key to see if that brings up the menu bar.

  • TS1347 My college cancelled my outlook/exchange email account because I graduated. Turns out all my contacts were saved to outlook and I didn't know, is there a way I can get them back without being able to restore the email account?

    Because I graduated, IT support at my college deactivated my email account with outlook/exchange. I wasn't aware, but all my contacts were saved to that account and now they are gone. I have tried to contact my college to see if they can restore it and they haven't responded so I am wondering if there is a way to get them back without having the exchange email account restored. I have looked on iCloud and there are nowhere near as many contacts as I should have saved there. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

    If you do not have the contacts accessible on a computer, iOS device or service like iCloud then they are gone unless you can get them from your school's IT department.

  • Can not sync files due to itunes not being able to find orginal file

    I have purchased these songs and video from apple on previous computer and have not had trouble until recently I believe it occured when i went to ver. 9. I have a touch and nano and these files that are on touch will not go to nano. I am afraid i will lose these if something happens to touch. It says it wil not sync with the touch also on 100 songs.

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

  • Can you power the iphone down without being able to swipe the screen?

    My iphone's screen will not respond to touch so i tought that if I were to power cycle the phone the problem might clear up. But how do you power cycle without the screen working?

    To power down, press and hold both the home button and lock button until the screen goes black. To reset, press and hold both buttons until the apple logo shows up on the screen.

  • If you lost your install CD's for an iMac7,1. Can you use Snow Leopard to reboot/install?

    If you lost your install CD's for an iMac7,1. Can you use Snow Leopard to reboot/install?

    Best answer; see AnaMusic above.
    Will SL do? Yes, provided you use the SL retail disc. A grey disc from another Mac will not work.
    A few considerations -
    Be warned that printer drivers, and scanner drivers in particular will almost certainly need updating for SL. That could be a problem if the printer or scanner is more than a couple of years old.
    Many third party applications (and some Apple ones) may need updates for SL (Adobe particularly), so check with the vendors for compatability before you upgrade.
    You'll need Rosetta to run PPC apps like Appleworks and many MS Office or Adobe versions. Ensure you select it from the 'optional installations' when installing SL.
    Note also that any bundled applications that came with your Tiger original discs (iLife in particular) are not included on retail OS versions.

  • Can I use Snow Leopard?

    I have an iMac G5 (1.8 GHz PowerPC G5), currently running OS v 10.5.8. From what I've read in these forums, this model is not Intel-based. Does that mean I can't use Snow Leopard? I'm not especially tech-savvy, and don't know geek-speak, so I'd appreciate simple answers! Thanks for any advice you may have.

    10.5 is still receiving security updates, and that will run on your G5.
    Considering Apple hasn't sold G5s since 2006, I'd think that's fairly good for a machine that is already out of AppleCare coverage, even if AppleCare was purchased. As long as your machine does what you need, you should have no reason not to run it. There is a large market for used and refurbished machines, that frequently can do things newer machines can not.
    For instance your G5 can run Classic if 10.4.11 or earlier is installed on it.
    Your G5 can run PowerPC games that have specific graphic drivers only found on your G5. And there are some older versions of Photoshop best optimized for G5s that don't run as well on Intel Macs. There are also some people who run Macs that are twenty or more years old, because it does what they need. So don't feel bad being left out of the Snow Leopard path.

  • What is the max amount of RAM that I can install using Snow Leopard?

    What is the max amount of RAM I can install in my MacBook Pro? Does having Snow Leopard raise the RAM limit?

    In general, for best performance, it's best to match up the same size modules in each slot (2x2 in this case). However, given that it's only going to read 3GB, I'm not sure if that holds true here.

  • I can not use my mouse or keyboard when I am trying to install windows via boot camp

    Please can you help!
    I can not use my mouse or keyboard when I am trying to install windows via boot camp

    Starting a couple of days ago my mouse and keyboard stopped working suddenly.  
    How are they connected?   In my case they are wireless and their receiver is plugged into my USB hub.  After an update I found the OS inexplicably not recognizing my USB hub and hence any devices which were plugged into it.  My fix was to
    plug the receiver into a different USB port (so I could use the mouse and keyboard; otherwise I would have had to use the OSK via Touch or pen.)  Once I had normal access into my machine again I used Device Manager to remove all USB controller and
    hubs (including hidden ones) and I then shut down, disconnected all USB devices and powered back up, this time using only Touch to get going.  Once the OS had settled down I started plugging stuff back in the way that I wanted it to be recognized. 
    If I didn't have Touch I would have had to have left the wireless receiver plugged in both places which I assume would be OK.  I have no idea why updates have such a catastrophic effect for USB devices.

    CS6 Camera Raw - I can now only crop using aspect ratio in the custom crop setting rather than being able to set the dims in cm and inches? anyone know how to revert? ever since installing new mac operating system things have been strange!

    Hi Kglad.
    I have looked at all of my settings both in Bridge and CS6 Photoshop regarding Camera Raw. I am at a loss how to set the crop tool in cm or inches as I once did - now the only option is to crop using ratios of 1:1 etc etc - This is infuriating as lots of my square crops I could set at 10" x 10'' specifically to print one to one to fit frame and mount size -
    Now if cropping using bloody aspect ratio of 1:1 (square) the actual dims of the crop are roughly 4.25 inches x 4.25 inches. this means I then have to open the whole image in photoshop in order to crop at the dims I have set! It was so much quicker in terms of batch cropping in camera raw being able to set dims in centimetres and inches but they have gone and mucked around with it, with the new bloody update! Unless you are an absolute genius and know how I can go back to having an option of CM, Inches and aspect ratio within the custom crop settings? (Please say you do)
    here is the new tutorial for CC -  my guess is they have scrapped the control we had over the custom crop settings

  • How can I use iWeb to create website that contains a lot of downloadable audio files?

    Hi
    How to use iWeb to create a website that contains a downloadable audio files.  I'm uloading about 15 GB of audio files.  I need to creat folders "albums" and then put the files in these folders.   Any advise?
    Thank you very much for your time to this
    W B

    The important thing is not to put the audio files directly into iWeb: if you do that then every time iWeb decides it needs to upload the entire site you will find yourself uploading all 15GB of audio files, which won't make you happy. Start by uploading the files to the server - in folders as suits you - and then link to them in iWeb.
    If you want them to download rather than play, you may be able to set up an .'htaccess' file in the folder which will force a download - it depends on whether your hosting service will allow this. The method is described here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/missing/download.html
    Here is an example of a simple link which produces a download (without the process described the audio file would play in the browser in a blank page):
    http://rfwilmut.net/stars/dawson2.mp3
    Then all you need to do is to provide a link, designed however suits you, in your iWeb page. If your server won't allow the .htaccess file then you will have to ask visitors to control-click (Mac) or right-click (Windows) on the link and choose 'Download linked file' or equivalent - not so convenient; or otherwise zip the files first, which won't much reduce their size but will force a download (and of course the recipients will have to unzip them).
    If you want the files to play in a player in the page, you can use an html snippet to provide a player as described in this page (you will also need to upload a script to the webspace - this is provided in the page):

    Safari is part of OS X and isn't available as a separate download. How did you get a newer version than the one that comes with Lion?

  • Can you use Photoshop CC licence on OS Mavericks 10.9.1 and Windows 7

    Can you use Photoshop CC licence on OS Mavericks 10.9.1 and Windows 7

    Yes.  You get a total of two activations, and one can be on one type of system and the other on the other.  That's new with Photoshop CC subscriptions; before you could only run the software on either one or the other type of system.
