Does Solaris 10 work on Microsoft Virtual PC 2007?

welcome to macbook forum.
it should work just fine since boot camp with XP or vista, will act as a PC laptop.
But the problem might be when you have to select the partition for installing your other guest OS, unless you point that guess OS (win 2000, another XP or else) to external HD if virtual PC support guess os from external connection.
Good Luck.

Installing Arch in Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP1

Firstly, I'm very new to linux and am looking to try out as many distros as possible before deciding on which one to learn from. I want a simple but powerful distro which has minimal packages which will allow me to develop a system myself, learning how the OS works along the way. Arch linux looks like the one.
I've tried to install from the ftp iso "archlinux-2009.02-ftp-i686" onto Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP1 on my Pentium 4 3.4GHz PC. I get a "Kernal panic - not syncing: Attempting to kill the idle task! message" after a message "unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x1db", a hex dump and "EIP: [<c010982c>] text_poke_early+0x4c/0x70 SS:ESP 0068:c042fe90" message.
Don't know whether this means anything or I've missed something obvious. Does anyone have an experience of this type of install? Have I downloaded the wrong ISO?
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

Arch does seem to have a few issues when running in a VM. More so than when using actual metal.
That should be the correct CD.
I never had much luck with MS Virtual PC. Maybe try VirtualBOX from Sun?
I don't know if your pentium 4 has support for hardware virtualisation. Without hardware support the performance will be less than impressive and I found I had more issues without hardware virtualisation when running vms.

Microsoft Virtual PC 2007

Hello, I was wondering if I install a clean version of Windows XP using bootcamp, will I be able to install Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 on it? I've been reading that this cannot work on the Intel chip. Please let me know as I am interested in purchasing the MacBook, but I also need to do DEV on the machine, thus I need to us MC VPC 2007.
Thanks.

Does the E71 work with Microsoft Active Sync or no...

Hi,
Can anyone help please.
I need to Sync the E71 with my work email, the company runs Exchange servers.
I've read countless messages and posts about the E71 and Active Sync and I still can't understand if it works or not. I know the specification says it supports Microsoft Active Sync but does it work?
Can anyone give me any tips, advice or any downloads that are required?
A guy at the office has an E63 and he cannot get it to receive his work emails. The IT department have tried and say it just does not work.
Any pointers would be very welcome!
Many thanks,

Hi,
Nokia E71 supports Active Sync Protocol, to Sync your Personal Info with your corporate Microsoft Exchange Account, you can install Mail for Exchange (An application from Nokia to receive/sync your corporate mails) which works on the Active Sync protocol. Log onto www.businesssoftware.nokia.com or go to Downloads in your handset & download the Mail for Exchange application. Install it in your handset, then contact your Company's IT Admin to configure the account & enable you to receive/sync mails with your corporate account. For more info on Mail for Exchange, log onto www.businesssoftware.nokia.com

Does Lion software work with Microsoft Office

After I upgraded to Lion i noticed that my MS OFFICE was not compatible. Is this fixable without purchasing new software?

I suspect you were running MS Office for Mac 2004, that will not run in Lion because it was written for PPC (Power PC) computers. Without going into a long explanation if you are running Office for Mac 2004 no it will not work and you will need to upgrade to Office for Mac 2011.The good news is all your files are safe though. You can find Office for Mac 2011 discounted at many places including Amazon. You can think of it this way, you paid about $150 about 7 years ago. That means you paid about $1.78 per month so you have gotten your money's worth!

Can Solaris be installed in Virtual PC 2007?

Hello
Can Solaris 10 be installed within Virtual PC 2007?
The reason I want to use Virtual PC instead of something like VMware or VirtualBox, is because of it's [BCD capabilities|http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=129475].
Please tell me if it is possible to install Solaris within the Virtual PC 2007 virtual machine.
Thanks in advance,
Panarchy

OpenSolaris is an open source project and the community can definitely take on something like this. OpenSolaris 2008.11 is tested for the following VM,
Xvm (Xen), VirtualBox, VMware and informally Parallels under OS X. I would encourage you to first verify if this is an issue for OpenSolaris 2008.11 and if so start the discussions on [email protected] LiveCD iso is under 700MB so it does not take too long to download.

Solaris 10 5/08 x Microsoft Virtual PC

I have tried to install Solaris 10 5/08 on Microsoft Virtual PC, but after selecting Solaris on first screen I have received this message:
WARNING: Time of Day clock error: reason [Stalled]. -- Stopped tracking Time Of Day clock.
Does anyone know how to solve?
Thanks,

ive seen clock issues on linux under vmware and found this off this link [http://www.vmware.com/products/beta/esx-vc/knownissues.html]
Solaris warning "Stopped tracking Time of Day clock"
Description: Solaris might report one of the following messages:
WARNING: Time of Day clock error: reason [Stalled].
-- Stopped tracking Time Of Day clock.
WARNING: Time of Day clock error: reason [Jumped].
-- Stopped tracking Time Of Day clock.
Workaround: The warnings are harmless, and you can simply ignore them. Alternatively, you can, do the following:
1. suppress them by adding the following line to /etc/system in your VM:
set tod_validate_enable = 0
2. Install VMware Tools in your virtual machineand turn on time synchronization to ensure that time is accurate.
for sure since this is msft stuff, you cant do step 2

Device Manager in Win: Does Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort Adapter Matter?

I'm a novice user just wondering about configuring devices in Windows 7 bootcamp partition.
My Apple iMac computer shows as a device in the Windows device manager with a yellow exclamation mark.
The driver is Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter.
The error is "device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)'.
Attempting to troubleshoot, by updating the driver doesn't solve the problem, as Windows can't automatically locate the driver.
However nothing seems to be actually functioning wrong - internet connectivity and wifi connections are stable and the partition is accessible.
I'm also using MacDrive 8 to access my Mac drives from Windows, again this seems to be working smoothly.
Can I just ignore this as one of the quirks of Bootcamp 3.2?
I have my PhD work on the Windows side so just wanting to be sure I can safely ignore the problem.
I've asked this question in the Intel iMac forum, wihtout any luck, just thought other Bootcamp users might be able to shine some light on the issue?
In detail:
Bootcamp; 3.2
Win OS: Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit
Mac OS: 10.6.7
Computer: Intel Core Duo 3.06GHz 8 GB RAM
Installed Driver Date and Version: 21/06/2006 and 6.1.7600.16385

Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately Office for Mac does not support the correct protocols to work with iCloud.

Does "top" command work in Solaris?

Does "top" command work in solaris?
# uname -a
SunOS rac1 5.10 Generic_120012-14 i86pc i386 i86pc
# top
top: not found
Edited by: user11936985 on Aug 29, 2011 8:44 AM

Top has two sections, the summary information at the top of the screen which gives load averages, process counts, etc. and a bottom section which lists the "top processes". The prstat command standard report is similar to the bottom section of top. So if that is what you need, then prstat is an adequate substitute. It doesn't report the information in top's summary section. On the other hand, prstat is actually a much more powerful tool than top, especially is you use some of the other options. For example, "prstat -a" gives you the "top process" report plus a summary report of usage by user. If you use "prstat -J" you get a top process report with a summary by project and "prstat -Z" gives a top process report with a summary by zone. You can use options like -v or -m to get more information on each process in the "top process" section. There are other options mentioned in the manual page.
Top works and works well on Solaris. You can get a copy form sunfreeware and probably other sources as well. It doesn't come from Oracle with Solaris 10 (but does come with Solaris 11). If you're a Linux shop you might want it because it is familiar. However, you may want to look at prstat as well because it can provide some useful information that top does not.

Does Lion really not work with Microsoft Office?

does Lion really not work with Microsoft Office?

I am afraid I have reverted to Snow Leopard as I was having one problem after another with Lion and for every problem I was solving, two new ones cropped up. I won't bore you with a long list, but one example is whenever I clicked on a single saved document to view, Microsoft Word would open not only that particular document, but also half a dozen other ones as well. Also, my Canon printer did not operate properly nor would Aol. With a lot of other weird stuff happening every day, the final straw was when my Time Capsule wouldn't backup properly, but just 'hang' indefinitely.
Luckily, I have two HD disks on my iMac and I had installed Lion on HD2 while still retaining Snow Leopard on HD1. I also made a Lion installation disk for future installation when all these software bugs have been sorted.
I am back to normal service with Snow Leopard and shall not return to Lion until at least the next upgrade/patch becomes available. I so looked forward to Lion as well, but I was fighting a losing battle.
I would suggest anyone who is in my position trying to stem the tidalwave of software problems with Lion, make an installation disk for Lion and go back to SL until the next upgrade.

Does 'versions' work with microsoft word, ppt and excel or just pages, keynote and numbers?

Does 'versions' work with microsoft word, ppt and excel or just pages, keynote and numbers? I tried to do what the videos say but the little icon for versions is not there on word. Does this mean it only works for pages etc... or do i have to activate it somehow? If it is only for pages then this ***** and should be better advertised!!!

Each application will need to be updated to work with Versions, Full Screen, and other Lion-specific features.
