Does partitioning Bootcamp [rMBP] 2014 really ready to run win 8.1 Pro?

Hello for all the experts and thank you for your time, it won't be long.
I'm using an Early 2013 rMBP 15"
I'd like to install Win 8.1 pro (because that is the only original copy I can get from Microsoft Store online, (Got it),
and the fact that I am a student with RTL languages needs, I need Microsoft's Office [which I prefer 2010 but again the Online store
makes only the 2013 available, and I want everything to be original.
So, my questions are collected in order to make things clearer, for me, and for others of-corse:
<1> Does Apple and Microsoft really works together?
<XXX> Would I be able to update to Yosemite or any other update from apple with windows installed on my drive ?
<2> Does the Bootcamp is the best option for my needs?
- Lets say it is, Does win 8.1 pro would be much more compatible than Windows 7 Pro ?
<3> What are the do and Don'ts ?
<4> How can I damage my mac if I won't use it wisely?
<5> Which format is needed to create a USB installation?
<6> What question should I ask ? what are there answers, please help
Thank you very much,
Jacob

BootCamp or Parallels running Win XP & Win 2000 Pro on MacPro Xeon Chips?

I know that BootCamp (BC) only allows XP on the Mac. I currently run the MacMini (for testing) and the MacBook with Parallels using WIN XP and 2000 Pro. However, does anyone know if Parallels Desktop (PD) will run WIN 2000 on a MacPro since it now ships with the Intel Xeon chips as opposed to the Intel Core Duo chips recently shipped in the iMac, MacMini, and notebooks?

You'll probably want to address that question to Parallels. I can't see anything on their site that mentions the new Mac Pro, so you'll want to confirm with them that the current version of Parallels Desktop is compatible with the Mac Pro and if there are any limitations re. the OS versions Desktop can run.

NVidia GeForce 344.11 Driver Release date 9/18/2014 crashes Win 8.1 Pro

NVidia GeForce 344.11 Driver Release date 9/18/2014 crashes/kills/shuts down Win 8.1 Pro, which also fails to start!
The previous version 340.52 worked ok.
Solution to get a working system:
1) let Win 8.1 take into use the previous working version (you may loose some app updates)!
2) let Win 8.1 pro update itself (takes a long time but its worth waiting!)
Note:
a. Ten points to Win 8.1 Pro being able to restore the previous working version
note: compare to Linux with eternal rest loop and "kernel in panic" state if you use NVidia's new drivers!!
b. Zero points to NVidia from this bug!
Continuation: waiting for a well tested new NVidia driver while using the older one

Hi, had exactly the same last night, on my relatively clean 8.1 64bit, GeForce Experience flagged up a recommended upgrade from 340.52 to 344.11 on my GTX650 ASUS card. Bumbled along for a while, then blue screened, reported kernel damage,
wouldn't even get far enough to restore, so had to use the 8.1 disks. Today, given its a completely clean system I tried again to prove the Nvidia was to blame, and again GeForce flagged up this upgrade, there's nothing on the system except
for Office and Avast, and again completely crashed and cycled the blue screen trying to boot. This time it eventually went into repair mode and restored right back to a clean 8.1 without the DVD's, but still had to reinstall my apps. Lots about
this on forums, seems this upgrade scrambles the registry big time. Anyone know what the actual cause of this was ?? Pretty fed up with Nvidia releasing untested crap like this.

about a month ago, Mavericks had an automatic update. I have a Windows 7 partition bootcamped on my macbook pro. Before the update, everything was fine. Now, when I attempt to start Windows partition, as soon as I touch the keyboard or mouse the screen goes black and I can't go any further. I have tried to re-load the bootcamp drivers and try again. It does the same thing. Any help would be great.

Does CC 2014 eliminate the need to have Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor installed to access Apple ProRes 422?

Hello:
Just today, I was working on a Mac system that does not have any of the applications that I would have expected to need to have installed in order to do more than just decompress movie files compressed with Apple ProRes 422.
I was expecting to have to install Final Cut Studio 3, Final Cut Pro X, Compressor 4, and/or QuickTime 7 with the QuickTime Pro key; however, none of those applications are installed and I am able to create custom QuickTime Apple Pro Res422 Sequences in Premiere Pro as well as export using Apple ProRes 422. After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder also show all the Apple ProRes variations.
Does CC 2014 eliminate the need to have Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor installed to access Apple ProRes 422? Is it something happening on the OS or QuickTime level that would affect CC or CS6 in the same way?
I've done a web search, but haven't really come up with anything other than older articles about needing to have FCP installed (and I typically work on systems with Final Cut Studio 3 installed as well as CS6, CC, or CC 2014). If more detailed information is available, it would be great to be able to read up on it.
The system is a 21.5-inch iMac running Mac OS X 10.8.5, QuickTime Player 10.2, and Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 (8.0.0 - I know an update is available for PrPro, but it's not my system to make that change).
Thanks in advance,
Warren Heaton

Hi Emil:
I use ProRes all the time as well, but I have Final Cut Studio on my workstations.
I had not come across MindPower009's YouTube video. That explains how ProRes could be showing up without FCP or Compressor.
So, the answer to my question would be, "No, CC 2014 does not eliminate the need to have Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor installed to access Apple ProRes 422; however, if you are willing to be in violation Apple's terms of use, you can install the ProRes codecs anyway."
Even though MindPower009's YouTube video comments claim "FREE and LEGAL", it's clear from both the Apple download page and the ProRes codecs installer that Apple expects you to own at least one of their applications.
Thanks again for the link!

HT4818 I want to have an exFAT parition in addition to the Mac OS X and Windows partition. If I create it before running BootCamp, it wants me to delete it. If I create it in either Windows or Mac OS X afterwards, I can no longer dual boot.

I want to have an exFAT parition in addition to the Mac OS X and Windows partition. If I create it before running BootCamp, BootCamp wants me to delete it before continuing. If I create it in either Windows or Mac OS X after running BootCamp and installing both OSes, I can no longer dual boot. What is the magic sequence to get this to work?

I've got the same quandary.
After upgrading my hard drive to a Momentus XT Hybrid and doing a clean install of Mountain Lion, I was surprised that I couldn't format partitions separately and then restore from my clone of the old Windows 7 Partition. I found that I had to use the BootCamp Assistant to manage it all, which essentially meant getting rid of the partitions and starting again...
I now can't get my Windows / BootCamp partition to boot, after adding a 3rd, ExFat, partition, when it was working perfectly fine before. I just get a lot of dos booting failures and a final message that "No boot device is available, press Enter to continue".
See the attached message, that I get when trying to boot the bootcamp partition, through Parallels 7; which also worked perfectly fine before.
Be good to know if there is a work around this in Mountain Lion as, if not, I'm thinking I might skip Bootcamp altogether and just install a machine drive via Parallels. As suggested here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1420754
I might even keep the virtual windows machine on a separate hard drive and then I'll have no need for the ExFat partitions altogether as that was designated for sharing between Windows and Mac.

Does sharing the iPhoto library really work?

Does sharing the iPhoto library really work?

Yes I've used both apps to open the same library and it has worked. There are some things in each library that do not carry over, books for one and I'm not sure about slide shows.
But the basic functionality works in both programs on the same library. Having wrote that I still believe in the advice we always gave out to new users before this recent change, when the library was not readable by both programs.
That advice was to pick one program and use that one exclusively. Before the recent change the reason for this was more obvious but now that the library can be read by both programs why stick to one? One reason is comfort. Both programs while doing basically the same task do it just differently enough that switching between the two will be confusing. And when you are confused you are more likely to make mistakes. And mistakes in this case lead to image loss.
Second Aperture is a fairly complex program and will require some time to learn it and use it well. If you're switching back and forth the time to learn it will be increased and you may never really get everything out of it.
I think the great benefit of this recent change is that one it makes it a lot easier to migrate to Aperture, two if for some reason you decide that Aperture isn;t right for you there is no problem going back to iPhoto (in the past this was not possible without a great deal of effort and even then data would be lost) and three if other people in your household need to access the images in the library occasionally they can use the simpler iPhoto interface to do this.
So my advice is stiil the same as it was before, pick one of the applications, Aperture or iPhoto, and make that your primary tool. In the long run you'll be better off.

PS in regards to the RAM question, 4gb will work but you'll be happier with 8gb
good luck

Does the updated CC 2014 create a new softwares or just update the old ?

Hi everyone,
This question's for saving free space on my hard disk :
- Does the updated CC 2014 create a new softwares or just update the old ?
- In that event, can I uninstall the old version of CC ?
THX !

Hello,
here a publication from outside of Adobe. (I fear they have some problems at the moment, I cant reach their wesites):
http://www.zdnet.com/adobes-2014-creative-cloud-update-desktop-upgrades-new-mobile-apps-cr eative-hardware-7000030627/
and a German article (I'm sure you can translate it).
http://www.digitalproduction.com/de/film-video-vfx/details/artikel/adobe-cc-2014/
What concerns "can I uninstall the old version of CC ?" yes you can, I for my part would keep it for a while, if your harddisk has enough space.

Does Partitions take up database storage space

Thanks in advance.
I have tables with partitions that do not have data stored in them yet, does partitions without data stored in them take up database storage? How do you measure the storage used by a tables partitions that do not have data stored in them yet?

Is there a benefit to asking the same question over again? (If so, I'd love to hear it.)
Or would you be willing to continue with the original thread at Oracle Table and Index Partitions storage consumption?

Cd skipping after "burning cd" does burning a slow copy really prevent ...

I know I asked this question before but I wanted to bring it up again just 2 double check.
Cd skipping after "burning cd" does burning a slow copy really prevent your cd from skipping in lets just say "Denon" cd players?
Recently we have burned some copies and during play back on the denon sometimes they would skip and no even play the rest of the song.
What is the best way to prevent this from ever happening?

I always burn CDs at no more than 8x maximum. Preferably 2x. Call me old-fashioned but I can't see how a 48x or even 56x burn can ever work without putting tons of (hopefully correctable) errors on it.
As I understand it with let's say "Denon" cd players, if the built-in error correction algorithm is naff or the laser is slightly off then too many errors on the disc are going to show up as splunts and your CD is effectively WATF.

Why does the IPhone 4 get really hot, when you are making a phone call??

I can't seem to find the answer to this riddle . why does the iPhone 4 get really hot when you are making phone calls or when using face Time ??

It doesn't.
There must be an issue with your iphone.
Have you tried reset? Restore?
Have you made an appointment at the genius bar to have them look at it?

Used 60 GB for Windows partition (BOOTCAMP) had less than 25GB free after instalation

Installed windows on bootcamp on my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro (256 SSD). I used 60 GB for Windows partition (BOOTCAMP) had only about 25 GB free after instalation. Why?
If I look at the size of all the folders inside BOOTCAMP it adds up to 17 GB. Where did almost 20 GB go?
I'd truly appreciate any help with this.
Thank you,
Matej

Look for two files. pagefile.sys and hibernation.sys...these are used as swap space and ram sleep image respectively. You can limit the first as suggested and turn the later off.

Porting an InDesign Plugin from InDesign CC to InDesign CC 2014 the plugin complies successfully with the InDesign CC 2014 SDK but at run time presents this error and is disabled. Does anyone know what might be the issue?

Porting an InDesign Plugin from InDesign CC to InDesign CC 2014 the plugin complies successfully with the InDesign CC 2014 SDK but at run time presents this error and is disabled. Does anyone know what might be the issue?
Run TimeError Message Presented when InDesign CC 2014 runs:
Adobe InDesign cannot load the FastFractions.InDesignPlugin plug-in. The FastFractions.InDesignPlugin plug-in requires the 9.0 version of InDesign. Please contact the vendor to get a compatible version of FastFractions.InDesignPlugin.
Show this alert again?

As already told this means that the plugin has not been ported correctly. Some part of it for ex InDesign libraries or frameworks are being referenced from the CC sdk instead of the CC2014 sdk. To troubleshoot it i would advise you to rename the folder containing the CC sdk on your machine and then compile the project, it will fail to compile and you will get to know straightaway what aspects of the ported project are still accessing the old sdk. Fix the errors and your plugin will load fine.
Thanks,

Does Partitioning Tables need more Space

Hi,
Can some one tell me does Partitioned table need more space than a general tables(i.e with out any partition). If so what can be the percenatge difference.
Thanks

that certain partitions never get any rows in them - thus wasting space.
It is not having/not having any rows in a partition but rather init.ora parameter deferred_segment_creation setting. By default it is set to true, which means segment will be created on first insert.
