How do I edit my system's software to reconize new hardware.

I recently update my mid 2011 imac's CPU and GPU. Now all I have to do is get my system to regonize and use these pieces of hardware. I know my iMac can use them. How do I edit the software to use these parts?

Installing the new cpu is only part of the battle to upgrade, just because a cpu fits in the socket is no guarantee that the system will be able to run with it.
Power and temperature seem to be the two biggest roadblocks to upgrading a cpu. The best outcomes occur when a base system is upgraded to a cpu that was offered by Apple at the time the system was sold. Thee are no firmware restrictions, at least as has been reported.
As you are going from Intel to Intel there really shouldn't be any software concerns the instruction set is the same for the old and new cpu's
good luck
regards

How do I edit the iCloud account information on my new iPhone 4?

How do I edit the iCloud account information on my new iPhone 4? I changed in on the iCloud web site, but it still has the old email address on the phone. The address is not able to change...am I missing something?
Also, the first time I started the phone, I put my email address instead of my son's address, now when I try to set up iMessage, it asks for my password associated with my address and not my son's address.

Yes...I tried that and It did work...Thank you.
Now the other item...iMessage still have my email address and I want my son's address. I have the iCloud registered with his address, I have not found where I can edit that.

How do I edit my alias and name in the new "My Settings" ?

How do I edit my alias (and/or name) in the new "My Settings" panel ? The alias and name are not editable. When using myinfo.apple.com, there is no "alias" field. This seems to be only a feature in Discussions but is no more editable. Please help !

I think that the idea is good, although nothing prevents that a "bad" user can create a new account on each login.
The È is not the only problem. In Spain we use two last name, and in spanish translation of "my info", middle name is translated as first lasts name and english last name as second last name, so my alias is completely wrong (name + second last name).
I think that nothing could happen if "good" users could change the alias once. I tried day after the warning, and I couldn't.

System 7 software on a new mac

has anyone run "delux music construction" or system 5-7 on a new mac?
wwhat about symulators/emulators for such?
i'd love to access my 200 or so old music compositions w/ my imac g5...
thanks,

Of course, there is no way you are going to boot up a new machine in any Mac OS other than OSX. This leaves you with three options: 1) find a program that you CAN run on your new machine that can read your old files and translate them; 2) run an emulation program on your new machine that will run your old program inside a window in the new OS; or 3) acquire an old machine that will run your software, translate your files into something that you can run on the new machine, and transfer the files.
For option 1, it depends on what format they are in now, and whether there are any modern programs that can read them. Look for sound programs and then check their specs.
For option 2, there are a couple of Mac emulators you can find through Version Tracker (www.versiontracker.com) such as "Mini vMac" or "Basilisk" which may or may not work for you. Always worth a shot.
For option 3, you can find older Macs on eBay or sites such as 'www.lowendmac.com' (check tech articles for machine compatibility for OS 8–9 (docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25114) and System 7 (docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=8970). All of the really early Macs should run Systems 5–6).
Also note that pre-OS9 discussions can be found here: discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=102

How do I transfer my Adobe CC software to my new computer?

Hi there,
I am switching from from my current MacBook to a new MacBook and I would like a step by step guide as to how to transfer my Adobe CC software to my new computer?
Regards,
Natalia

There is no need to and you should not transfer Adobe applications between machines anyways because it doesn't work. Just install the Creative Cloud applications the same way you did originally on the old machine. You are allowed to have two working installations, so if you would like a backup available there is no need to remove the applications from the original machine.

I installed Windows 8 on a new drive. How can I move my PhotoShop CS5 software to that new system?

I originally downloaded the CS5 software in September, 2011 and installed it in Windows Vista. I have since installed Windows 8 on a new drive. I am trying to re-install it on that new drive. I deactivated it on the old system. I can't find a way to re-download it from the Adobe site. How can I download CS5 onto my new system?

HT1444 How can I upgrade my system 10.4 into a newer one or the latest I could get for my machine?

I currently have Mac OS X V. 10.4.11 and there are some things I'm unable to use on my computer, Adobe flash player being one of them, so I figured why not upgrading my software into the latest I could get? However I have no clue how can this be done, or if it can be done?
I'll appreciate any advice. Thank you.

OS numbers and names
OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
OS X 10.7.x - Lion
OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion

The Apple History site has specifications for every Mac ever produced: http://www.apple-history.com/
Upgrade to Leopard
Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
Upgrade beyond Leopard
OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages.

How can I change the system to stop opening a new page everytime I seek information from that page? It took me 5 pages on the task bar to ask this question.

This week I downloaded the BIOS update from Mozilla and since then my header bar has not been the same. For instance, in order to get to this box, to ask my question, I entered Mozilla.com, then entered "Help" which resulted in a new tab, then "Ask a Question" which was another tab, then still another tab. By the time I got to this page I have 5 tabs open. In the past, a new page was opened and I could always return to the original via the "arrow" in the address bar. More than likely this can be solved with one key stroke, I just don't know what key to stroke.
Thank you!

I'm sorry, but what do you mean by a BIOS update?
Firefox will launch a link in a new tab if the Ctrl key is pressed down during clicking, and will launch a link in a new window if the Shift key is pressed down during clicking. Maybe Firefox is having trouble reading your keyboard accurately. Sometimes pressing Ctrl or Shift several times will help clear that up. In other cases, it could be a compatibility problem with your keyboard, low batteries, or another problem on the keyboard side. And/or, if you haven't shut down and restarted Windows since this problem began, that sometimes helps.
Some add-ons also can change how links behave. Do you have any extensions related to tabs, like Tab Mix Plus? You can review your extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. For some, you will find an Options button to inspect their settings.

How do I edit playlists on my iPod from a new PC

My iMac is in storage until we move. I only have access to my husband's PC. I have a shuffle. I need to edit a playlist on my shuffle. My itunes on the PC does not have the same songs as my shuffle, and I can't seem to download those songs or edit anything on my shuffle. Help?

If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7 installed hold down the Control and Alt keys (or Shift + Ctrl keys in older versions). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. Once you are safely connected you can change the update setting to manual: iTunes 7 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows

How do i edit pdf files

how do i edit pdf files

Use a software tool capable of doing this.
Preview (included with OS X) has some limited capability.
Personally, I use PDFPen (available in the App Store).

Cannot select Softmotion (10.0.0) because only an older version (10.0.1) is available on the host. How to I tell MAX that 10.0.1 is NEWER than 10.0.0?

I am trying to get my 9512s installed on my cRIO-9074. I just downloaded the most recent version of SoftMotion and installed it. When I try to add SoftMotion Module to my RT Software load-out though I get the error that my host only has an older (10.0.1) version than the supported (10,0,0). How can I reset this so my software acknowledges the newer version?
I never had installed SoftMotion before so I don't know why it thinks I ever had 10.0.0. I also have run the Update Tool and have no updates to perform on any of my tools or modules.
Thanks,

Hey NHuntoon,

How to configure Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.1

hi all,
How to configure Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.1 to my IDE..( jstudio)
I have installed jes for my windows system.. so that i have removed platform version of Application Server..
I try to add the Enterprise application Server (Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.1) to JStudio IDE..
but i couldn't;

Configuring your IDE to integrate with Sun App Server is something you probably will have to ask in some sort of JStudio forum. Other than for Netbeans, Eclipse, or possibly IntelliJ IDEA, you might not have much luck answering an IDE question here. I could be wrong though. Maybe somebody will have an answer for you and set me straight.

How can i edit psd files in PS touch or which software/app i need for androiud tablet (newest tablet)

how can i edit psd files in PS touch or which software/app i need for androiud tablet (newest tablet) @samsung

You can import PSD files into Photoshop Touch but the PSD file will be flattened. (The original, of course, will remain untouched; PS Touch just copies it upon import.) I imagine this was done as a failsafe measure since PS Touch has no support for masks or adjustment layers (not to mention that PS Touch only has support for about 12 layers).

Recorded a software instrument on garageband, how do I edit out the "silence"?

I have recorded a software track, how do I edit out the "silence" that was created before and after I recorded using the keyboard?
Hope that made sense, thanks.

If you want to get rid of it forever, you could also snip and delete it:
Move the red timeline to the spot where you want to snip and remove the silence before your music comes in. Press Command T to snip. Then click anywhere in the work area to deselect all segments. Then select the beginning silent segment by clicking on it, and delete. Do the same at the end.
