How can i use visual logic on my mac

I am a student at the University of Phoneix and Im taking a programming class that uses Visual Logic. The professor knows about my problem but really doesnt know what to do with a Mac but he says I will need a windows environment to install and run the pogram... doe anyone have any tips? I saw a program for $79 call Parrallels but I really dont want to be buying equipment for the computer in every class. Shortcut needed!!!

Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium $99 System Builder.
Boot Camp Apple is free of course.
Parallels 7 then lets you run natively or as a guest OS VM - though you probably want to run VL natively on the hardware not through virtualization.
Equipment? two programs to run all the Windows based software you mean.
CrossOver Mac supports a few popular titles but maybe not this.
Really helps to always list mac model etc to know OS and how old whether even using a VM is worth it, or get yourself a $499 PC laptop for school instead.

  • How can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!

    how can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!

    What aspect of Microsoft Office? Office is a suite of programs... Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.
    You've got several potential options. Libre Office and Open Office (both googleable) are 'open source,' free, downloadable programmes that will open most MS Office programmes and perform many of the functions of MS Office. Might be an idea to have a look round for reviews (etc) first, to see if they sound like they'll match your needs.
    If you're keen to use the App Store, there's Apple's own suite of programmes: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. They're a word processor, spreadsheet programme, and presentation-type programme with similar functions to Word, Excel and Powerpoint respectively. They're pretty good for most functions, and are better integrated with Macs than MS programmes. They're excellent programmes for what they do, and relatively cheap (about £14 each?).
    But if you're heavily reliant on MS, want ALL the bells and whistles of MS, or need to regularly transfer files between MS programmes on other computers and your laptop / desktop computer, then they might not be the best of ideas. Keynote - IME - can have some difficulties in transferring formatting to Powerpoint.
    Finally, there's MS Office Mac 2011. You can't download MS Office from the App Store, but can order the CDs from most online stores (including Apple's own store). It might be worth price hunting - if you're a student, you can usually find the programmes relatively cheap (£38 at the moment on Software4Students, though you'll need to belong to an academic institution / have a UK .ac email address). Apple's own prices on MS software are unlikely to be the best prices out there (though the product will be identical).
    MS Office includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the basic version. The slightly more expensive version (which, I think, is the £38 one on S4S) includes Outlook. Which - IME - is far more of a nuisance than Apple's native Mail programme.
    (I should probably add - I'm an academic. I own both Apple's own programmes, and MS Office 2011. I tend to use the MS programmes more, if only because they're the ones that other people tend to use, and transferring between Apple and MS programmes is a minor inconvenience. Pages also lacks Garamond, my favourite work font. The Apple progs are, however, far more beautifully integrated, and would be MORE than good enough for most users...)

  • How can I use Microsoft Access on my Mac?

    How can I use Microsoft Access on my Mac Pro?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Microsoft Access isn't available for OS X, so you can't use it. If you need it, you have to install Windows on a virtual machine.
    On a virtual machine, you can install the Windows version you most like and the Access version you need, so you won't have any problem using it. You just need a full Windows version with its DVD or ISO image and product key, and an application like Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox to create the virtual machine. If you want to save money, System Builder versions are cheaper and you can find them at Amazon or NewEgg.
    As you have a Mac Pro, I suppose you won't have any problem using a 64-bit version, but it's important you have enough memory. Open  > About this Mac, and check how much memory you have. I recommend 4 or 8 GB of memory at least.
    After installing Windows on the virtual machine, you will be able to install Access there.
    There are applications for OS X that allow you to run Windows applications without having to install Windows. Those apps often fail, so I don't recommend you to use them

    That's exactly what I tried to do, but the iPhoto librry doesn't show up in the pulldown menu. If I click "Choose Folder", the iPhoto library is greyed out and unable to be selected.
    For some reason, iPhoto is an option in the pulldown library on my older iMac but not on my MacBook Pro. What gives?

  • How can I use Imessage from Iphone to mac?

    Hello
    I am a new user for the awesome new feature Imessage
    And I have a question: how can I send a message to an IPad or IPod or Mac or IPhone from IPhone and Mac?
    Thanks

    To send from the iPhone to the mac or Ipad you need an email address to send to, instead of a phone number.
    on the iPad or mac you need to setup Messages. I do not have mesages on the mac and do not have an iPad but I have set it up on my iPod Touch and I assume it is similar.
    Settings>Messages>
    > iMessage > ON
    > Send Read Reveipts > ON or OFF your choice
    > Received At > [email protected]
    Enter your valid email address in the "Received At" field.
    As long as the email is valid it should work, and I assume you will need a different email for the iPad and Mac.

  • How can i use 2 mice on my mac - so kids can play 2 player games at once?

    How can I set up 2 mice on my Mac - so kids can play a 2 player computer game together?

    Time Star is PC based software and is designed to run in MS Windows. You can run MS Windows on your MBP however you will at a minimum need a license of MS Windows check with the Time Star manufacturer to see what version of WIndows you will need. Assuming it can run on Windows 7 you have many choices including:
    Run Boot Camp, this is the least expensive way however it means  you cannot simultaneously run OS X. Boot Camp is free and is pre-installed on you MBP.
    The next option is to run emulation software such as Parallels or Fusion. For this type of app this is the strategy I'd recommend if you must run Time Star because it allows one to simultaneously operate Windows and OS X.
    However when you run MS Windows on a Mac in either emulation or Boot Camp that portion of the Mac is susceptible to all the issues PC's have such as viruses and other malware so you need to take  proper precautions.
    My recommendation would be to search to see if there is either a OS X version of Time Star (contact the manufacturer) or start looking for a replacement app that is designed to run in OS X.

  • How can I use screen share of my mac mini?  Problems validating

    I recently purchased a mac mini to act as my home media server for audio as my airport express was not playing nicely with my Peachtree DAC.  Anyway, I have set up sharing on the mac mini and can't figure out how to connect from my wife's Macbook, or her iPad.  (I use a PC, so would welcome advice if available on how to connect across platforms as well.)  My goal is to set up the mac mini without a monitor or keyboard connected to it and have it sit with our main stereo. 
    I am able to connect to the mac mini via my wife's macbook IF I ask for permission and I grant it from the mac mini.  However, I am unable to connect no matter what I try if I try to log in as a registered user.  I have tried to add her as a user to the mac mini, I have tried to log in as a guest, and I have tried to log in with a password but no matter what I try, I get an authentication error when I try to log in as an authorized user.  For more clarity, here is what I have tried:
    1.  Added authorized users on the mac mini.  I created a user name for "jeff", "maureen", and "lastname_maureen" on the mac mini and provided a password for each user.  "jeff" and "maureen" are just created on the mac mini, and "lastname_maureen" is the user name of my wife's computer.  I confirmed the passwords, and still am unable to connect.  I have allowed any user on the network to access screen share, and no matter what I do I get an authentication error.  Again, if I attempt to log in from my wife's computer by asking permission, it works fine but I can't figure out how to set up an account to login.  Please help.  Thanks!

  • How can i use 3d pdf on my mac? Under windows i can open my pdf with 3d animation but under mac it is not possible. İ also check the web site of adobe, but there are no information about it. Please help.

    Hello who can help me?
    İ need to open the 3d animation pdf. But my mac is not able to open it and my friends have also the same problem.
    İ need this information for my work. İt would be very nice if someone could tell me how i can open the 3 d animation .pdf files. Under windows it is no problem, because adope reader is open it. İ also check the site of adobe to find answers, but no results.

    If there is no info on Adobe about it, this is probably a case where there is a special 3D plugin that Adobe has access to on your PC.    You need to find out what software generated the 3D.  Then you can find out if there is an equivalent Mac compatible plugin.    That said, you can always run Windows on an iMac Intel if push comes to shove:

  • How can i use external hard drive with mac and pc!

    I've been using a Lacie external hard drive with my mac to keep the itunes library and other things since day one. Since i have a dvd with files for windows and an old pc without a dvd drive, i decided to copy and paste the content of the dvd to the external hard drive. The only problem now is that when i plug the external hard drive to pc, it won't open. I know it has to be formatted in a different way, but i need to find out the best solution!
    Any idea?

    You can format the external drive in Fat32 (which I don't recommend but is the most compatible between both platforms), or NTFS (which requires some work to get your Mac to recognize), or HFS+ (which requires special software on your PC so your PC can use it).
    If you use this drive mostly with your Mac, get MacDrive for your PC:

    If you use this drive mostly with your PC, here's some software for you Mac. I haven't tried this myself, but the professional reviews have been good:

  • To test how can we use the opt  'logical file name' to name the file based

    Hi Sir/Madam,
               to test how can we use the opt  'logical file name' to name the file based on the selection made in the dtp run for extracting data as flat file.

    Hi Vishali,
    In the DTP select the file location as application server and give the logical file path. The actual file and logical path can be created using transaction "FILE" and "AL11".
    Rest of the process is same as that of extraction from local file.
    Regards,

    or the process has some exceptions, my business logic also will rollback.
    I don't know how to do it.
    Does anyone know how to do it?

    Thank you for your reply, Daniel.
    But I think I did not express my mind clearly.
    There is a scene that I have 2 Application Server.
    My business code is deployed in one Server.
    The BPM is deployed in another Server.
    I want to execute Task use PAPI.(ProcessServiceSession.runActivity)
    In my business code, I will do something before execute Task.
    I need my business logic and Task in same transaction.
    To ensure them "all-or-nothing" .
    As you say, if The transactions are managed by Oracle BPM.
    then can I retrieve OBPM transcaction in my business code?
