How to install an apk file in macbook pro using bluestack software?

can someone please tell me how i can install an apk in bluestacks in macbook pro...
i read somwhere that this should be pasted in Terminal
~/Library/BlueStacks\ App\ Player/Runtime/uHD-Adb install path-to-your-apk
but i didn't get it done...
my app's path is
untitled/users/baburaochinta/downloads/whatsapp.apk
someone please give me the exact format in which it is to be pasted in Terminal..
Thanks!!

As shayd3 said, try this in terminal:
/Applications/BlueStacks.app/Contents/Runtime/uHD-Adb install /path-to-your-apk
From Shayd3:
Probably your "~/Library/BlueStacks\ App\ Player/Runtime/uHD-Adb install" address was not quite appropriate because i went into the folder and noticed that "Runtime" is a shortcut link to the actual bluestacks app itself.
Try this instead: /Applications/BlueStacks.app/Contents/Runtime/uHD-Adb install /path-to-your-apk
I tried installing simpsons tapped out and it worked.
Your terminal should print something like this if it worked:
6446 KB/s (40245348 bytes in 6.096s)
          pkg: /data/local/tmp/Tapped out 4.2.4 hacked.apk
Success

  • How-To: Install Bundled Apps to another MacBook Pro using Target Disk Mode

    Recently, I replaced the dead hard drive on my wife's computer. All the data was previously backed-up so all I needed to do was reinstall the original OS. Oops! Those disks disappeared over two years ago...perfect, right? No poblem, I already had the boxed install DVD for Snow Leopard and installed the core OS. But what about those bundled applications? Aha! That is the marketing coup Apple doesn't really talk much about. You see, you get the entire suite of Apple branded apps with the original install disks but not with a boxed OS install disk. It's just something that you have to find out for yourself...the hard way.
    My requirement: restore all the iPhoto data to the reimaged machine running Snow Leopard. But that data has no application that can read it. Solution - Reinstall iPhoto from another source.
    So I developed this workaround I hope the rest of you find amusingly simple, wildly helpful
    Here's how I restored iPhoto on my wife's computer:
    1)  Get two Laptops side by side. In our case we both have macbook pro 2008 computers (Wife's and Mine)
    2)  Power both down and direct connect a firewire 400 cable (or 800 if you have it) between the two
    3)  Start the Wife's laptop in Target Disk Mode: Press "T" immediately after engagin the power button, hold it down until you see the "fanned" firewire symbol floating across a grey screen - it's quite large, about the size of your hand making a "stop" gesture
    4)  No start the Mine laptop by pressing the "option" key (two keys to the left of the space bar)
    5)  You will presented with a pair of hard disks to boot from, choose the Wife's laptop hard drive
    5a) you'll notice now that the Mine laptop is booting the OS system files of the Wife's laptop (Her desktop, her preferences, etc...)
    6)  On the Mine laptop, insert the original Mac OS Install Disk (#1) that came with the Mine laptop (usually any OEM install disk will work, though)
    7)  Double-click on the DVD icon on the desktop when it mounts and look for a shortcut that reads, "Install Bundled Applications Only"...launch it
    8)  Now choose install bundled applications but make sure to press the "Customize" button in order to specifically choose which OEM software you want. In our case, just iPhoto
    9)  Follow the installer prompts all the through to completion and exit (you will be prompted to insert disk #2 along the way).
    10)  Remove the install disks, power down
    11)  Power down the Wife's laptop too
    12)  Disconnect the Firewire cables from both laptops
    13)  Power up the Wife's laptop normally
    14)  Launch the FInder and drill down to Applications. Look for iPhoto and launch it
    15)  iPhoto will either pickup the "iPhoto Library" that was previously restored after reimaging with Snow Leopard or you may be prompted to manually associate a library with iPhoto.
    16)  Once complete, you'll se all the restored pictures and data from when before the original hard drive crashed. Wife will be pleased and you'll look like a Genius
    This is a really handy trick for troubleshooting a lot of install and restore related issues.
    Hopefully you'll find other uses for it too.
    Good Luck,

    I think the problem is that you can't install an older OS X version onto a system running a newer OS X version. So I would try the following:
         1. have an external disk or create another partition on an internal drive to use for the Mountain Lion install (you might have to shrink an existing partition to make room for another)
         2. Create an external bootable USB thumb drive with the Mountain Lion OS on it (do a search on the web for this - for example see http://www.macworld.com/article/1167857/how_to_make_a_bootable_mountain_lion_ins tall_drive.html
         3. Reboot Yosemite and then boot from the USB thumb drive by holding down the option key
         4. run the mountain lion installer and install on the new disk/partition you created in step 1 - it will also create another recovery partition from this same part of the disk
    Now your Mac system will have both a Mountain Lion install as well as the Yosemite install. You won't be able to use Migration Assistant to move things from Yosemite to Mountain Lion because it will see that you're "going backwards" and won't allow you to.
    Have a good backup of everything before starting in case there are problems.
    Good luck...

  • How to install windows 7 on Old Macbook Pro 15'inch 2.3 Core 2 Duo

    How to install windows 7 on Old Macbook Pro 15'inch 2.3 Core 2 Duo:
    I want to known how to install windows 7 on Old Macbook 15'inch 2.3 Core 2 Duo by using usb
    I try many time, but after restart bootcamp partition, apple show blinking folder error
    I think this firmware not support to install windows by usb
    NOTE:
    I Cannot install Apple New OSX Mountain Lion, Mavericks etc in this MAC
    If I cannot install windows 7 on this MAC, so tell me what I will do with this MAC  ? 

    I agree with the optical drive, mine acted strange, and i thought people were crazy and my drive was shot, but a simple cleaning disc worked miracles.
    But- are you trying to reboot with both the USB install and the DVD install both plugged in?  that would definitely cause confusion.
    Do this, reboot with NOTHING plugged in.  Once you hear the Mac chime, immediately press and hold option.
    You should only see the Mac HD, and Recovery Partition.
    THEN plug in your external DVD, and wait a min or two, you should see a disc icon appear next to the recovery partition that says something like windows.  If that doesnt appear after a min or two, unplug it and put the USB stick and do the same thing.  I had to do it this way on my mid 09 MBP.
    Let me know if this works to start the install.  If not we may have to start over with Bootcamp Assistant

    Put one of the computers in Target Disk mode by holding down the T key while your computer is starting. By doing this, the hard drive of the computer you put in Target Disk will appear as an external drive in the other computer, so just open a Finder window and choose the other computer's hard drive in the sidebar.
    Then, just go to the folder where your pictures are and copy them to your computer or to the Mac in Target Disk mode, depending on the computer you put in Target Disk
