How to play/read PC only CD's on MB Pro?

I have a macbook pro with OS X 10.7.5  I want to download a CD that was formatted only for PC's...this CD is not a game, per se, just a read only tutorial.  Thanks for any help.

Hi Clinton.  So, I put the CD in and an icon came up on my desktop.  When I opened that icon I got two things to click on...the first said 'autorun' so I tried that and it said it couldn't read the disk and that I should go to the App store.  Did that, but nothing was for free and none of three items clearly stated they would solve my problem anyway.  The second item was a 'setup.exec' and when I clicked that it activated Pages and that came up with a short page of gibberish, the only readable part of which said it couldn't read the disc.  So, I am back to square one.  Surely, there are other people with PC tutorials that they need to use on Macs?  Thanks for any other advice you might have.  Cheers, Kevin

    How to play an HD movie exported from Final Cut Pro? on a mac?
    Most FCP users export them in a high-effeciency distribution/delivery compression format (e,g,, H.264/AAC) targeted for a particular application and/or device. For example, you could export using H.264/AAC at full display resolution for playback in the QT Player at an appropriate data rate if your platform and display can handle the output. TV would limid the video to 960x540 at 30/29.97 fps and normal AAC audio to 160 kbps at 48.0 KHz. Files exported for display an the Internet would be restricted by the bandwidth being targeted. Etc, etc, etc. Unless the file will only be played on your own platform, what you do not want to do is use an FCP only compression format which would limit viewers to those recipients have the same FCP codecs installed.

  • Newbie can't figure out how to play one song only.

    So I just got up and running with my new iPod 80GB Video. I ripped 3 CDS of tunes to mp3's with iTunes and loaded them into the iPod and it plays but I can't figure out how to just play a single song, it always continues to the next song alphabetically. I've looked in the online manuals and couldn't find where you set "single" instead of "play all". I'm in Songs menu, not Artists or Albums. Please help.

    The iPod isn't designed to work like this, and I think the only workaround is to create a playlist with one song in it.

  • ?? how to play one song only without auto advance

    Yes just uncheck them,
    If you have an iPod tho, you will want to make sure "Only Update Checked Songs" is UNCHECKED in the preferences

  • How to play 5.1 audio with my Mac Book Pro Retina?

    I recently received several DVD's that have 6 channel LPCM 24/192 and 24/96 sound.  I have tried many alternatives  but to no success.  I will appreciate any suggestions...  Sincerely,  Joe Ray Skrha [email protected]

    How are you ripping the video and audio from the DVD?  You can't import stuff from a video DVD into an NLE without converting it to a workable format.  If you use something that will give you ProRes files, and the audio is surround sound, FCPX will edit surround sound natively.  As for playing it back in surround sound, you'd need a USB interface that connects to a surround sound system.

  • I downloaded a .mov file but when I play it I only get stills.  How do I run it as a video?

    I downloaded a .mov video file from Vimeo and when I try to play it I only get stills, not the video.  How do I get Quick Time to play this as a video?  Also, if I try to delete the file I cannot do so.  It will not move it to the recycle bin.  It also won't allow me to change the properties to another type of file for viewing.  I can't get rid of it or watch it.  Any ideas?

    This can be done one of two ways:
    1. Customize the form in Infopath, right click your field and disable the control.
    2. Use JavaScript/jQuery on the page to disable the element.

  • How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname?

    I'm new in Java Developing, and dont know the written classes yet. I need help, how to do the following steps?
    <p>1. How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname, or IP address?
    <p>2. How to read lines from text files without read all lines from the beginning of file, just seek to a position.
    (ex. how can I read the 120th line?)
    <p>Please help!
    <p>sorry for the bad english

    I'm new in Java Developing, and dont know the written classes yet. I need help, how to do the following steps?
    1. How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname, or IP address?You need to know the URL of the file. You need to know the hostname, port, protocl and relative path.
    The hostname is server, not file.
    2. How to read lines from text files without read all lines from the beginning of file, just seek to a position.Use the seek() to get to a random byte.
    (ex. how can I read the 120th line?)The only way to find the 120th line is to read the first 120 lines. You can use other file formats to find the 120th line without reading the whole file but to need to be able to detremine where the 120th line is

  • How to hide save button / read mode only in browser adobe viewer?

    Currently I embed a pdf to my website , the problem is, I would like to show the read mode only instead of a full tool bar to the visitor , also , I would like to hidden the save file option .
    I checked there is an open parameter in the offical document that can specific
    toolbar=1&navpanes=0&statusbar=0&messages=0
    However, can I specific what opition is allow in the toolbar (actually I would like to allow only zoom function )
    Are there any way to doing this? Thanks.

    Much of the documentation for Acrobat JavaScript has not changed and still operates exactly as it did with Acrobat 3.1 so it is possible that the old documentation is still valid. I have found that the Acrobat JavaScript Guide fro
    version 5 has some very excellent documentation about the field object UI for the various form Fields.
    If one goes to the Acrobat Developer Center and uses the Working with Distiller, Fonts and more and the uses the PDF Open Parameters one gets the documentation from the version 9.0 SDK form June 2008. This document probably has not been updated since then.  Another issue to consider is the changes in IE, the number of new web browsers, and the introduction of HTML 5 all of which could change how parameters are passed or allowed. This technique has always been problematic.
    Within an external viewer, it is not possible to show/hide the toolbars.

  • Downloaded a book but can only see it on ipad, can't read it on PC because of DRM. How do I read it on the Win 7 PC?

    Downloaded a book but can only see it on ipad, can't read it on PC because of DRM. How do I read it on the Win 7 PC?
    Is this a lost cause thanks to good old Digital Rights Management? My PC is already "authorized" according to iTunes.

    Found this same thing on other discussions. Apparently you don't read DRM iBooks on anything but the iPad you purchased it with.
