You cannot run Mac OS X on a Windows machine. You need a Mac to run Mac OS.
Macs can run Windows, but Windows PCs cannot run Mac OS.

  • I have just bought a mac and also have windows installed but how do i change from windows into mac?

    I have just bought a mac and need to know how to change from using windows into Mac. When the mac starts up windows come up but i want to use Mac?

    To set the default boot volume use the Startup Manager system preferences once you are booted back into the OSX.  Then you would only need the option key at boot time to boot into the "other" OS.

  • I want to change from windows to mac for cs5

    I bought the upgrade for lightroom 5 and found I needed Windows 7 which I did not have. Thought now would be the time to change to Mac. How can I swap formats on the photoshop CS5 license I currently have?

    Hi Marionneedshelpplease,
    There shouldn't be any problem while upgrading and switching the OS.Please go through this link : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/order-product-platform-language-swap.htm l
    If you want to upgrade from CS5 Win to CS5.5 or CS6 MAC, you can do that. Its called Cross Platform Upgrade.
    But as Bob mentioned, you need to contact adobe for that. It cannot be done online from adobe website.
    For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6. Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to resolve the issue you have described.

  • Change from Windows to MAC

    I have been operating two  HP 5610 printers on a PC laptop with Windows 7 in two of these separate locations .  I am switching over to either a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro.  and would like to continue to use these printers.  I have the original Macintosh disk - CD version 7.9.0.  It also has this info on it:
    OS X v 10.2.8 and higher
    OS X v 10.3 and higher
    OS X v 10.4
    Will it be possible for me to use these printers?
    This question was solved.

    Hello @paperdoll,
    I would like to assist you today with the Mac Operating System compatibility options for your HP Officejet 5610 All-in-One Printers. I found the following information.
    On a Mac computer running Mac OS X 10.2:
    There is printing only capabilities offered for the HP Officejet 5610 printers. The installer can be downloaded by clicking here. Once the download is complete just run through the onscreen instructions to install your printers.
    On a Mac running Mac OS X 10.3, Mac OS X 10.4, and Mac OS X 10.5:
    There is a Full Feature driver available for printing and scanning abilities. The Full Feature driver package can be downloaded here. Once the download is complete simply follow the onscreen instructions to install your printer.
    On Mac OS X 10.6:
    There is a Full Feature scan and print driver package available. You can download and install your printer by clicking here.
    On Mac OS X 10.7, Mac OS X 10.8, Mac OS X 10.9, and Mac OS X 10.10:
    Due to the age of your printer there is no downloadable HP Full Feature Software and Driver package. You have to install the functions of your HP Officejet by using the Apple Update feature. You can also manually download and install the HP Driver Package v3.0 for the computer. Please click here to download and install the print and scan driver package.
    So, to answer your question, you should have no issues using the Officejet 5610 printers on your new Mac computers.
    Please let me know if the information I provided is helpful. I look forward to hearing from you!

  • Ipod change from Windows to Mac, and restore freeze, no iPod Preferences

    hello. am having some problems. previously, i was using my iPod with iTunes for Windows. As I now have a MacBook, I have the latest iTunes and have all of my songs in the library.
    When I first plugged my iPod in, it recognised the iPod model, software etc, and i clicked on the restore function. iTunes stopped responding, and so I forced quit. Each time i now plug the iPod in, it appears on my desktop, but not on the device panel in iTunes, so I have not been able to get to my iPod preferences to reset. I have tried to reset the iPod iteself but this does not seem to have helped.
    If anyone can offer me any help, would really appreciate.
    Cheers

    Hey, not a dumb ?, in fact a good ?......nope, I did not install any software at all, I just figured the imac would recognize it automatically.
    We also got a brand new ipod nano, not the new video one, the older one, it was a back to school promo thing, anyways, I got that one all setup no problem, just plugged it in and was good to go.
    So I have to install some software on the mac for the mini?
    Been doing more reading, sounds like I might have to erase the memory of the mini somehow, not sure how?? But what about my 1200 songs on the PC, how do I get those over to the mac and into itunes?

  • Change from Windows to Mac Photoshop CS5

    Hi everybody,
    is it possible to get an update from photoshop cs5 student version WINDOWS to the MAC version?
    I don't want to have a abonement like the newer versions of photoshop.
    greetings Rush

    Platform swaps are only possible for current versions, meaning CS6. As a minor, you would have to buy the commercial CS6 upgrade and make the switch.

  • HT1689 I need to get my iPod to no longer be associated with the original i store account. My husband set it up through his account but now I have my own account. I don't want to go through his every time I want to make a change. how do I make this change

    I need to get my iPod to no longer be associated with the original i store account. My husband set it up through his account but now I have my own account. I don't want to go through his every time I want to make a change. how do I make this change?

    I am trying to stop using my I-pod under my husband's I-Tune account.  It was set up under his account and the only way I can use it under my account is to erase all of the songs my husband loaded on for me.  I had heard there is a duration that I-Pods are locked into to one account only, and I am trying to discover how I can use my account without having to erase everything on the I-Pod.  I know it sounds confusing but that's the way I-tunes have set it up.  thanks for asking.

  • I have a hitachi hard drive from an old pc. I would like to transfer pics and music to my macbook air. What cord do I need to make this possible?

    I have a hitachi hard drive from an old pc. I would like to transfer pics and music to my new macbook air. What cord do I need to make this possible?

    Some external cases include cords others (like some printers) consider the cord to be "optional" - read the package or product description. Other World Computing, HH Greg, OfficeMax, any box store or local computer store should have a case for your old drive.
    You are fortunate in that the Mac will automagically read the DOS format disk... you'd never be able to connect and old Mac HD to a WinDUHows machine.

  • I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time  Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on  what other external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and  how to configure that disk

    I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time
    Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on
    what other
    external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and
    how to configure that disk.
    A complication that I need to resolve is the fact that I am using Vmware
    Fusion to be able to use Windows on my Mac. Now it seems that Time
    Machine is not backing up my files
    on that virtual Windows without additional configuration and my question
    is whether you can advise me here or whether this is only a matter for
    the Fusion virtual machine.

    If you want to use Time Capsule you can.. you simply bridge it and plug it into the existing router.. wireless can be either turned off or used to reinforce the existing wireless.. eg use 5ghz in the TC which is much faster than your 2.4ghz.
    You can also use a NAS.. many brands available but the top brands are synology, qnap and netgear readynas  series. These will all do Time Machine backups although how well always depends on Apple sticking to a standard. There are cheaper ones.. I bought a single disk zyxel which was rebadged and sold through my local supermarket. It actually works very well for TM at least on Snow Leopard. Major changes were made in Lion and again ML so do not instantly think it will work on later versions. I haven't tried it yet with those versions.
    Any external drive can be plugged into the mac. Use the one with the fastest connection or cheapest price according to your budget. USB2 drives are cheap and plentiful. But no where near as fast as USB3 or FW800. So just pick whichever suits the ports on your Mac. Interesting Apple finally moved to USB3 on their latest computers.
    TM should exclude the VM partition file.. it is useless backing it up from Mac OS side.. and will slow TM as it needs to backup that partition everyday for no purpose.. TM cannot see the files inside it to backup just the changes.
    You need to backup windows from windows. Use MSbackup to external drive.. if you have pro or ultimate versions you can backup to network drive. But MSbackup is a dog.. at least until the latest version it cannot restore the partition without first loading windows. There are about a zillion backup software versions for windows.. look up reviews and buy one which works for you. I use a free one Macrium Reflect which does full disk backups and is easy to restore.. to do incremental backups though you have to pay for it.
