Can you download windows 7 or 8 on the Mac

I'm trying to install microsoft office for school and the disc won't download on my computer. So can I download windows 7 and 8.

You can purchase and install Windows then purchase and install Office for Windows.
Or, you can download and install Office for Mac with no need to install Windows.

  • Can you download and read books with the iPad?

    Can you download and read books with the iPad?

    Yes. There is the free iBooks app  which then allows you to download books from Apple's book store. Kindle also has an app and there are other e-reader apps.
    The one thing to consider, the iPad is a backlit screen, so it's like reading off a comptuer screen. Some have issues with eye strain so just bear that in mind.

  • How do you download adobe flash player on the Mac?

    How do you download adobe flash player on the mac without it failing? I use to have it and try to upgrade it and now it won't work. I can't even watch any videos on the Internet.

    Adobe no longer supports 10.5 Leopard. You will have to upgrade to 10.6 to use the latest flash.10.5 Leopard was based on Power PC code and was written to be able to run on both Power PC and Intel processors. 10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs. So anything written to run on 10.5  has twice the code needed for one written for 10.6 or newer.
    The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is back in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

    Can you use windows auto cad on a Mac?

    I've got Windows XP installed in Parallels with Acad versions 2004 and 2008. Works fine. I wonder though how large a file it will work with.  Most of my stuff is relatively small.

  • How can you download windows for mac

    I found bunches of videos one which was really good by technobufallo but i still don't know how to do it

    You can't download Windows, you have to buy a retail disk (not an install disk that came with a PC).
    You can use either Boot Camp or a third-party solution such as Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion, or VirtualBox to install and use the Windows partition. Boot Camp support/instructions here:

    (Edited:) In Lion, Boot Camp only supports Windows 7. Older versions of Windows should work with the other solutions I mentioned.

  • Can You download instant messenging apps to the Motorola Droid

    I'm current an LG Voyager user who contract is due to renewal. I see that in the write-up it doesn't mention that it is IM (like AIM, or Yahoo Messenger) capable. I use Yahoo quite a bit and I wanted to know if the Yahoo messenger app can be downloaded for use with the Motorola Droid.

    yes....AND, ironically, yahoo just put out an official app for messenger last night. and it's getting much better reviews than the app i had found. Yahoo! Messenger for Android.......jus released. and the comments are mostly positve.

  • Can you run windows 7 as vmware on mac or ipad

    Can I run windows 7 on my Mac or use a iPad and use VMware on them.

    You can run Windows on your Mac, but not on an iPad.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
         1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows
             XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  For Boot Camp
             4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
             instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
             installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
             installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the
             computer into OS X or Windows.
         2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
             Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software
             virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
             with OS X.
         3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
             or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that
             enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
         4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
             applications without having to install Windows.  The
             Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
         5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
             as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
             It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
             Fusion.
    Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • No airport card easiest way to access wireless can you use a usb wireless on the mac

    My mac pro is not equiped wirelessly, what is the easiest way to access internet wirelessly.
    CanI purchase a usb wireless to work on the mac pro?

    yes, you sure can.usb wifi adapters are availabe for your Mac Pro. try afterthemac.com. I don't work for them, just the first page that popped up. Dlink
    makes something, but you may have heard a few stories about how DLink might be
    'iffy' (someone else's words, not mine). Oh, and apparently, you can make an antenna signal  booster out of an aluminum can.....
    anyways, best of luck

  • How many times can you download a free trial, on the same computer?

    about how many times are you allowed to download the same free trial software on the same computer?

    You can install a trial once on the same computer. After the trial period ends, you'll need a serial number (in other words, a purchased product) to continue using it on the same computer.

  • Can you download and install Lion to another mac when you have lion server?

    I cannot seem to download it without having to pay.
    Cheers

    They are considered separate products so, yes, you need to pay.
    Hope this helps

  • Can you use a VGA monitor on the Mac Pro model?

    I'm considering getting a new Mac Pro to replace my beloved PowerMac G4 MDD. I have a ViewSonic Graphics Series 19" CRT monitor (VGA) that I use as a palette monitor, with a 19" SyncMaster LED as my main monitor (DVI). My PowerMac's video card has both DVI and VGA ports.
    Will I be able to use my VGA monitor with the basic Mac Pro (MB871LL/A)? Will a DVI/VGA video port adapter work, and if so, will it work well? Thanks.

    I had two 19" Viewsonic WS monitors hooked up to my X1900XT on my MacPro and it worked just fine with the VGA/DVI adapters (I got the small 2" white adapters that don't have any "cord" in the middle. I swapped them out for two 22" WS Acer monitors and now use the DVI inputs and I am still happy.

  • Can you download a 32 bit installer for photoshop elements 12 to install on a 64 bit system (windows 7)

    can you download a 32 bit installer for Photoshop elements 12 to install on a 64 bit system (windows 7). Thanks in advance

    yes, if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • Once you purchase the sortware, can you download it on two computers?

    Once you purchase the sortware, can you download and use it on two computers?

    You can have it "Active"/usuable on 2 computers at a time, but can download to multiple computers.
    Example Scenario in my actual life, you have a Windows Laptop and an iMac that you have Photoshop CC on (which was more difficult prior to Creative Cloud by the way), but you know you are going to visit your girlfriend out of state for a week.
    You can deactivate Photoshop on your iMac while you're away without out uninstalling it.
    Once you'e at her place you can download and activate Photoshop CC and you can even import you custom settings, Work Area and shortcuts all from the cloud.  Now you can work seemlessly
    Another example, you're office won't pop for the latest version of Photoshop and still has you running CS5.5
    You have your own copy of Photoshop CC but don't want to just "give" them your license or key since their too cheap to get one for you for your work, but you still need those features to be at your best.
    You can deactivate your license on your desktop or laptop in the morning when you are heading to the office, activate on your work computer, and deactivate before you clock out and go home.
    As J pointed out, you can have it active on 2 machines at once, but installed on any machine you plan to work on at some point. Take advantage of it!
