How do I know if I have bootcamp on my computer? And if I swtich to run windows, can i download and use Authorware?

I am not 100% sure if we have bootcamp on our computers. How can I be sure? And if I do not have it, can i get it and for how much?
Also if I use bootcamp to switch from the mac os to a windows os, can i download a plug in that is not compatable with Mac and use it?
We purchased our iMacs in 11-2010. We LOVE them. We will never switch back. However, the attorney that I work for has to do online training with a Sheriffs dept to maintain some of his credintals. We check with the help desk and they just do not support any apple products. Their online training requires two plug ins, Adobe flash, which we have, and Authorware, which will not work on our macs. And like I said the website's help desk just doesn't support any apple use.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Boot Camp Assistant is included on the OSx installation disk. There is no charge. Boot Camp Assistant is used to create a Windows partition on which you install the Windows operating system.
You need to buy a retail version of Windows. Once Windows is installed on the Boot Camp partition you can boot your computer into OSx or into Windows.
You can install and use Windows software when you are booted into Windows.
There is a Boot Camp Installation Guide on your installation disk.

    How do I recover my security question answers? I don't know how to tell if I have a rescue email address. I know my answers aren't wrong but I can't buy anything on iTunes without verifying the questions. Nothing seems to be working!

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of doing so include clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • How do I know if I have a wifi problem with my new iPad 3 (it seems very slow) and how does one address the problem with apple if there is one?

    I just read about the possible issue that some folks are having with their new iPad wifi (my seemed to be running very slowly but I thought that perhaps it was just me overreacting).  How do I know if I have a definite problem, and what is my recourse?  Do I need to take it to an Apple store for testing?  I have apple care which I assume addresses stuff like this.  Thoughts?  Thx so much.

    Your iPad is covered by the normal warranty for one year. If you have AppleCare that extends the coverage. If you feel there is a problem with your wifi reception visit an Apple store with your iPad for a consultation. Be sure to make an appointment before you go.

    How do I know my contacts have been backed-up before I update to the new software? itunes tells me I have to erase and restore, I'm afraid of loosing contacts.

    you can sync your contacts and things under your own itunes and your wife can have her own... or both in one as long as you have it synced in the same computer they will be there
    if you name ur phones its easier to tell which is which
    my husband kids and i all have our names and then iphone next to it and it creates a different backup for each and then we update and we restore from there it lets you choose which backup you want...

    It all depends. You don't NEED anything, Firefox runs just fine with it's default setup, and you don't need to install anything to fully experience the best of the web. But lets say you don't like ads. Install Adblock plus. Lets say you want to change themes, there are dozens of them. It's all personal preference.

  • HT4623 How do I know if I have any kind of iOS?

    how do I know if I have any iOS?

    Without an operating system your device won't even power on. Or it'll power on but just be a black screen.
    If you want to know what one you have, go to settings, general, about and it'll give you all sorts of specs about your device.

  • How do I know if I have an Airport Card

    How do I know if I have an Airport Card? I know when I purchased the computer I got the bluetooth but don't recall about Airport. Do they come together or separate?

    If there is a Apple Store or CompUSA near you, you can get the Airport card from them for $99 plus tax. Either store will require you to have them install it though. The Apple Store installed the Airport Card I purchased from them for free since I just bought the Mini. I don't know what either store charges for installation but I strongly recommend not trying to install the Airport Card yourself because it is one of the harder upgrades for the Mini to do.

    I have a problem .. I can not download and update some applications from App Store as it asked me for apple ID I don't know this email.. How I can solve thi problem

    All content from iTunes is tied to the account that downloaded it, so the id that shows when trying to download updates should be the account that 'owns' that app. Do you recognise the id that is showing e.g. has anybody else downloaded or synced content to your iPad ?

  • I've got macbook pro w/OSXv10.6.8 and intel core 2 duo...how do i know if i have leopard or snow leopard?  i'm interested in the new lion

    I've got macbook pro w/OSXv10.6.8 and intel core 2 duo...how do i know if i have leopard or snow leopard?  i'm interested in the new lion

    tiger was 10.4
    leopard was 10.5
    snow leopard was 10.6
    and LION 10.7!!! LOL
    so you have 10.6   which is snow leopard
    you should be ready to update assuming you meet the other requirements.

    I have a fairly new imac osX version 10.6.8. How do I know if I have snow leapard?

    You do, since "Snow Leopard" is the code for 10.6. If you had 10.7, you'd have Lion. 10.5 was Leopard.
