Help! how do I get a windows license and s/w to load windows?
I am "microsoft windows" illiterate. I have been an apple user for many many moons (over 25 years). I just got a new job where I need to run visual C# on a windows system. Since I don't want to go out and purchase a windows system, running boot camp seem viable. I don't know how to get a windows license and software to load up a boot camp partition so I can load the visual c# software on it.
Could someone please help me?
Thanks!
Hi Diana,
I am just as Windows illiterate as you, but have always imagined that the only way to do this is to buy their retail package.
This looks like the cheapest alternative:

So far your suggestion is to install an additional 16 plug-ins just to fix a problem that did not exist before this was downloaded on my computer? No. Try again.
Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

During migration / transfer from windows LT went to sleep and now it will not continue?
Help how do I get it to start loading again?
Transfer screen is stoppped at 7 minutes to go?The large text size makes your post almost impossible to read.
Excessive use of bold or capitals (also) makes posts difficult to read.
You can drag most of the column headings left or right, or right-click on the header to turn columns on or off.
Once you've used File > Display Duplicates or Shift > File > Display Exact Duplicates you can use File > Display All or the Display All button at the bottom of the list to restore the display.
For general advice on organising your library see this article on Grouping tracks into albums.

How do I get into the BIOS on my HP Envy running Windows 8.1 to enable Hyper-V
How do I get into the BIOS on my HP Envy running Windows 8.1 to enable Hyper-V
This question was solved.
View Solution.Rob, welcome to the forum.
During boot you should continually tap the Esc key to enter the BIOS. I am not certain that you will find Hyper-V as an option in the BIOS. Most of HP's BIOS'es are kept very simple with only the necessary settings.

I cannot find my photos or contacts. Help how do I get them back after a iclound backup was done due to needed to get a new iphone. HELP
I believe I had leopard and I was having issues getting errors of system not being supported. I contacted Apple and was advised I needed to upgrade to snow leopard. My laptop is from 2009 and I haven't done anything to it till now. The apple rep also stated I should do a fresh install when putting snow leopard on so my laptop would run faster. Apple rep told me to get a external hard drive to put my info on it so the fresh install would reset everything to like it was brand new. I had someone help me with getting everything on the EHD.. doing the right format and such and then once that was done I put in the CD for snow leopard and hit install. Which brings me to now, with everything but my pictures. I have the EHD plugged in... now what? What do I do? I have looked in the EHD in iphoto and it was all standard images *not my pictures but images of a check mark or an arrow again not actual pictures. I don't see a folder pictures and i looked for images and found nothing. I have Applications, Included Free Designs, Library, System, User Guides and Information and Users, those are my options and non of those have a "pictures"

Run the cleaner, reinstall.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
And don't bother with running any updates unless you really need them or they fix a critical issue relevant to your workflow.

after updating my Macbook Pro retina display to os x yosemite 10.10.2, the mause and track pad locks, and do not respond especially when using the Mac for a long period, please help, how can I solve this, I do not like feel like in windows, so I paid good money for this mack, I feel calm
Hi Buterem,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:
How to use Activity Monitor - Apple Support
If the entire system hangs or locks up (for example, if the system clock freezes and stops counting up), you may also be experiencing some variety of Kernel Panic. If that is the case, you may also find this article useful:

Please Help,how do i get my iphone 4 to play all my songs from icloud, it is currently only playing just a smal number of songs from my library which is stored in icloud.
There are a number of OS X apps, many free, that will save your messages, allowing to view and print them.

Google, for other options
Your "other" of 6 GB may include corrupted data or file sytem errors. If after removing the messages there is still >2GB, you will need to restore the phone in iTunes, first using a backup (made after deleting the messages) and if needed as a new iPhone.
