How do you get a pc account on a mac

How can I get a pc account on my mac??

There are two ways of doing it,
One is using a program built into your mac, called "Boot Camp"

The other is using a program called "Parallels", which you will have to buy

Boot Camp requires a reboot to switch from OSX to Windows, where as Parallels will run both operating systems simultaneously. Parallels will consume more processing power.

    How do you get the Windows side on a Mac?

    There is no Windows side on a Mac unless you install a version of Windows in a virtual machine or use Boot Camp to partition the drive and install Win 7 (if you are using a Macbook Pro that came with OS X Lion installed).
    If you use a virtual machine you can install just about any version of Windows that you have a retail disc of and a legal license key to go with it.

    Received a new mac for my daughter.  How do you get all the information from old mac?

    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up (not Migration Assistant later).

    I don't have any apple products personally, this is for work to use Photo Stream so when Superintendents & Project Managers take pictures of their construction site, I am able to have those images immediately.
    Thank you

    You can not create an iCloud account using a PC, you will need an Apple product. Once the account exists you can logon to it from a PC.

  • HT5622 How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account no longer exists?

    How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account it's tied to no longer exists?

    The password will not be sent to you, because Apple does not know it. They will send a link where you can reset the password. It will be sent to your Rescue email address, not the iCloud email address. If you don't have one contact Apple Account Security and they can reset it for you: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

  • How do you get the mail boxes set up on your Bt yahoo safari account on to the apple e.mail app on an I pad mini?

    How do you get mailboxes set up on Bt yahoo in safari onto your apple e.mail app?

    When you say Mailboxes, do you mean actual folders or the overall setting up of Yahoo mail on iPad?  If overall setup then when you select Mail it should show some email suppliers, I believe Yahoo should be listed, if you select it, it should then ask for you details.
    If you mean folders, if Yahoo is IMAP based if you create folders online via webmail, they should pull through to your iPad when the account has been set up.
    Alternatively, if you have got mail up and running on your iPad and want a new folder, just select your account under the Accounts heading in Mail you should see a list of all the folders present, click EDIT in at the top of the screen, just to the right of where it is likely to say either Yahoo or BT and it will then give you the option to add a mailbox(FOLDER) at the bottom of the screen.
