Can you run a pc program on a mac?

Can I run a PC program on the a new mac?

Yes. But.
You will need some kind of software environment such as Boot Camp (free from Apple) or Parallels.  Then you will need to buy and install Windoze.

  • 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.

    Yes, probably can.. but it won't be fast. You are better storing programs locally and data remotely.

  • Can you run two separate vi's in parallel

    Can you run two seperate Vi's in parallel? Will this make response considerably slower? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi, what more detail is needed? They are two entirely seperate independent vi's with no shared sub vis.
    I just wanted to know if you can run two independent vi's at the same time, as in just have two seperate programs and run them.
    Separate isn't the same as independent.  That's why they wanted more information. 
    Your second question asked about slowed response.  That's another place you didn't offer anywhere near enough information for a true answer.  How many loops are you running in each of these independent VIs?  How many cores does your processor have?  Are you including a 0ms wait in your loops to avoid railing your processor?
    It's possible you'll see such a negligible change in processing that you won't notice.  It's also possible you'll feel like you're draining your system.  It's generally best to err on the side of too many details rather than too few when you're asking questions.  If you don't know the answer, you likely don't know how each piece plays a part in the answer.  More information allows others to pick out the relevant pieces and give you a better answer.

  • Why don't you run a eduction program to train some members of the staff to be leaders in korea?

    I'm disappointed you.
    Mac Addresses of Erhernet and Wi-Fi on My iMac was exposed to network because of using terminal supported by apple iMac.
    I just wanted that Using changed random mac address protect me from stealth connection and attack by someone, not spoofing other one.
    After using terminal, my iMac is not under my control.
    Network key to prevent further changes on system preferences pannel was opened very often. Network configuration was finally changed.
    You would rather educate how to change mac address of Erhernet and Wi-Fi to me than hack my iMac.
    I want to control my Mac by myself, because it's mine not yours.
    You don't have any rights to control my iMac even thought your purpose is positive.
    Why don't you run a eduction program to train some members of the staff to be leaders in korea?
    Micosoft has run a various education programs to make new user and to upgrade user's system  in korea.
    I'm much interested in the distribution of your products, iphone, ipad & iMac as your agent in Ulsan, Korea .
    I have a plan to apply your products to HYUNDAI expect project.
    Who should i contact to talk about distribution in Ulsan, Korea in detail?
    Please let me know Charger Name, email address and phone number.

    MAC addresses for network hardware are encoded into the network interfaces. To change them requires spoofing of the address, something not officially supported by Apple (or any manufacturer I know of) and hence would be beyond the sort of support any Apple Store employee could or would provide, or is it something that Apple would providing training to the dealers in how to accomplish.
    As to distribution of Apple products, Apple has information on their channel programs on this web page:
    http://channelprograms.apple.com/channel/index.html
    Unfortunately, they say at this time they're not accepting any applications for resellers:
    http://channelprograms.apple.com/channel/channel_update.html
    You can keep checking that page from time to time and see if they once again open up application for resale. When or if that will happen, none of us here can say.

  • Can you run indesign cs4 on a laptop without internet connection

    I believe that Indesign CS4 checks over the internet before opening. If that is the case can you run it on a laptop without an internet connection?
    Thanks

    From an earlier post by Nicolas Mertens:
    "here's what I got from Customer Services about this problem:
    [Help] files are located in the following location:
    C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_us/InDesign/6.0. Also
    from that location, you can launch the file 'index.html' and this
    should direct you to *the online help that you would access through
    the program itself.*"
    I found that the files are not at that location, but at C:/Program
    Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_GB/InDesign/6.0 (this is in Windows
    Vista, by the way). "
    Yours would presumably be at [the German equivalent of
    ..]/de-DE/InDesign6.0, or whatever your locale is (AT, CH...)

  • Can you run Adobe Photoshop CS version 8 on Yosemite?

    Can you run Adobe Photoshop CS version 8 on Yosemite?

    Well if you want permanent license Adobe software, here is the price list for the CS6 catalog .  Creative Suite 6
    Just know that with the exception of Adobe Camera Raw updates, CS6 will have maintenance updates, but not the features of CC 2014.
    The rental model called Creative Cloud means you will have the software installed on your Mac and you can work with your files as before, it's just that activation depends on a $50 monthly fee. Upgrades are piped in at no further cost, and you have the freedom to switch platforms and interface languages. You activate on up to two computers, PC, Mac or mixed. 20 GB online storage for collaboration, and you can also store and sync your settings and custom presets. Typekit if you'd like to try new and difference fonts.
    Look at it this way, it's not a big deal if you are in business. You rent many things and this is probably not your largest monthly expense.

  • Can you run Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and Oracle HTTP Server at the same time

    Hi,
    I know this will sound a bit odd but their is a business case for asking this. Can you run APEX via the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and the Oracle HTTP Server at the same time? Would their be any security/stability/etc issues I'd need to worry about? I know that I'll need to run them on different ports.
    Thank you,
    Martin Giffy D'Souza
    [http://apex-smb.blogspot.com/]

    I think I've done this in the past. Theres no technical reason why you can't do this as far as I know.
    I can't remember if I used different ports or same port.
