Not using Boot Camp, but you should be able to using virtualization software such as Parallels to run Windows concurrently with OS X.

  • Is there any way to make a snow leopard partition on an early 2011 MacBook Pro that was upgraded to Lion, without the original boot disk?

    So I have an early 2011 MacBook pro,  I believe it shipped with snow leopard originally, as I purchased and upgraded to Lion fairly early on.  I am trying to make a partition right now and have it run snow leopard so I can use programs that have PowerPC.
    I should note, I replaced both the RAM and the harddrive in my Macbook pro.  I changed from 4 GB of ram (that came shipped) to 8 GB of ram from a 3rd party, that I installed on my own months ago, have registered in the computer and have been working fine for quite some time now.
    Also I should note I replaced my harddrive.  I went from what ever the standard 500 GB harddrive that shipped with 15 inch early 2011 MB pro's.  I now have a 3rd party SSD that's 240GB's that I also installed on my own, (at the same time as the RAM---Black friday items)  The harddrive has been working just fine since then.
    In installing the harddrive I borrowed a friends external harddrive and used a program called carbon copy cloner to get everything over to the SSD.
    Now here is my issue.  I have ordered the Snow Leopard (10.6.3) install disks from apple, I have created a partition on my SSD for snow leopard, but when I try to select the install disc for snow leopard at boot I get three beeps.
    I know this issue has been posted elsewere but it said answered and the answer is no longer available.  I also am unsure if any of the RAM or Harddrive swapping could have been causing the issue.  I have the old harddrive and RAM still, but unfortunatley have no external harddrive anymore or money to afford one.
    Is there any way I can install a partition that runs snow leopard on my early 2011 MB pro with what I have (new SSD, New RAM, Current version Lion running, no external drive, lack of original snow leopard disks [I lost them ] and the general 10.6.3 snow leopard boot disks).
    Let me know If there is anything I can do.  I'm a now broke college student so i'd like to spend as little $$$$ as possible
    *PS I should also note the DVD drive is working fine, it reads the disk, the disk is brand new, it plays DVD's fine and has never had any issues in the years i've used it for similar tasks*
    sorry for the long drawn out post, I just wanted to include as much as possible from what I've seen other people have issues with

    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

  • Is there any way to transfer your Contacts from your iPhone 4s to your macbook pro?

    I just got the iPhone 4s and was wondering how to add contacts from the phone to my Macbook pro 13' (fall 2011)

    You should be syncing you iphone ot your computer from the beginning.  The contacts should be on your computer.
    iPhone User Guide (For iOS 5.0 Software)
    If your computer has at least one unique contact, then you should get the option to merge when you sync.
    Have a look at the manual.

    Nope, it will void your warrenty, and will brick your iPod. I did it, and made a paperweight from it.

    Is that a question?
    Photo stream pictures can be viewed only on the devices they were sent to.  You can't transfer them back to your phone (or anywhere else).  If you didn't back up or import the photos to a computer, and they are no longer on your phone, they're gone.

  • I took a 6 minute video and it's too grainy. Is there any way at all to reduce the grain? Or am I out of luck?

    I took a 6 minute video and it's too grainy. Is there any way at all to reduce the grain? Or am I out of luck?

    Yes, you have lots of alternatives.
    1.  Got to somewhere like Google docs and create a comment and feedback form, that can be inserted onto your site via the html snippet.  You can also take a look at http://www.jotform.com.  Whenever someone completes the form, you will be e-mailed with all the info.
    2.  Use a comment system like http://www.intensedebate.com.  Very good and the comments will be displayed on your site and you will be e-mailed when someone comments and you are able to accept it or reject it in this way. 
    3.  Go and create a blog elsewhere, like http://wordpress.com or if you have hosting, then try http://wordpress.org.  You can load this on your server with no problem and then create comments here, so in your iWeb site you either create a link to your blog or you can display your blog as an iframe in your iWeb site using iframe code.
    4.  As far as hit counters go - there are many.  Just do a Google search for hit counters - http://www.hitcounterexpert.com and there are hundreds more.
    Perhaps Apple keep blog comments and hit counter as MobileMe only to encourage people to use MobileMe rather than external servers.  However, we can only speculate on that!

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Is there any way I can re-install Vista?

    Hi,
    I bought an A200 a couple of years ago pre-installed with Vista Home Premium.
    Recently I got a virus and had to re-install windows which I tried unsuccessfully from the recovery disks I had made from the Toshiba recovery programme. After several attempts I decided to install Ubuntu 9.1 instead, which I have been happy with, however certain features, such as no sound through HDMI, have not worked so I would like to re-install Vista.
    I believe the install files for the pre-installed Vista are on a partition somewhere on my A200.
    Is there any way I can re-install Vista?
    Thanks

    Hi Sched7,
    There is no recovery partition on Toshiba notebooks. Only a folder with an image is stored on the second partition but as MisterX wrote, if this would be available its too late now since you installed Ubuntu
    In your case I would try the recovery disk again. I noticed also a problem with the disk after I had a virus. I had to wipe the whole HDD first by using Microsoft disk. After this I tried the recovery disk again on a clean HDD and it successful!!!
    In worst case you have to install Vista from a Microsoft disk. You can download all drivers and tools on the Toshiba website.

  • HT1338 I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8. Is there any way for me to install and run keynote on this machine? Do I need to upgrade OS and how? Thanks

    I have MacBook with OS 10.5.8
    Is there any way for me to install and run Keynote on this machine? Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Keynote '09 is compatible with your computer, but you won't get the latest Keynote version running that version. As you have an Early 2008 MacBook, first I recommend you to update to Mac OS X Snow Leopard to get newer versions of all applications but without losing any applications > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Make a backup before upgrading.
    The DVD contains Mac OS X 10.6.3, so after upgrading, open  > Software Update to update to 10.6.8. Then, you will get access to the App Store.
    However, the Keynote version available in the App Store is only compatible with OS X 10.7.5 or newer, so now you have two options:
    1. Upgrade to OS X Lion and purchase Keynote from the App Store.
    2. Keep Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, and buy Keynote on a DVD in eBay or Amazon. Note that you won't be running the most recent Keynote version, but it doesn't mind (the latest version only adds iCloud support)

    Apple discontinued iWeb. That's the case for over a year now.
    Topics in this forum will tell you that in order to install iWeb you have to find a copy at eBay, Amazon and similar places.

    Yes you can still purchase replacement batteries your iPod from third party repair companies.  Apple does not offer replacement parts.
    Do a Google search for iPod battery replacement and you should get a plethora of results.  There are many good deals on Amazon and eBay.

  • Is there any way at all of accessing captivate variables from flash?

    Hi,
    I would be grateful for any help on this one.  I have been working in flash and I wanted to know whether there is any way at all of calling/accessing captivate 4 variables from flash (I'm working in flash Cs4 Actionscript 3.0 and I'm trialling Captivate 4, but I just want to know whether there is any way/method of communicating between a flash file and a captivate 4 file, and if so, can this be done with an embedded captivate 4 file/swf).  Surely there must be a way of communicating between the two - they are both Adobe products!
    Thanks for any help, pointers, advice, tips in advance.

    Hi Louon,
    Don't know if this would help you.

  • Is there Any way to All Calender?

    Is there any way in Developer 6i that To Insert Or Add a Calender Control in Developer Form
    If yes then what or how?
    Thanks.

    See
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/forms/6idemos.html
    Also the 6i demo may come with a calendar that doesn't use a PJC. If not, there is a demo package in 10g that doesn't use a JPC that will probably work with 6i but may need to be modified.

  • Is there any way to convert video files and keep my project in Final Cut Pro 7?

    I am currently editing a project, and have been having multiple issues with freezing while editing. Upon doing some quick research, I learned it is bcause my clips are in the h.264 format, which is not a good editing codec. Is there any way to change the codec of the videos and keep the project I have?

    You might need to relink the timeline to the new media. Just take the H.264 files offline, and reconnect to the new media. If you media managed the sequence, it'd relink. But then you are only converting the files used in the sequence, not all your media.

  • Is there any way to access my data in case i didnt back up my data on icloud and also erased the data from my iphone?

    I accidentally erased all my data from my iphone and plus i also forgot to take the back up of the same, so i want to ask is there any way to get my data back?

    There might be an outside chance of getting the data back from your iPhone, if it hasn't been overwritten. There are some programs you can run on your computer to scavenge files from your iPhone, even though they have been deleted. You'll need to search on the Internet to find those programs, and then you'll have to buy one of them. And, it's always a "buyer beware" situation when you do that, so research carefully.
    Here's one search to start with ...
