HT5049 how can i run windows xp with OS X v10.7.3?

I bought a copy of Windows XP (as recommended by my place of work) to enable me to work from home. The intention was to use boot camp to partition my had drive and install windows in the partitioned area. Unfortunately v10.7.3 doesn't seem to allow me to do this - it only seems to accept Windows7?

that's correct. With 10.7, only Win 7 can be run under boot camp. To run XP with Lion, you will need to use a virtual machine such as Parallels or VMware Fusion for example.

On the mac mini 2011 how can I run windows 7 without the optical drive, On the mac mini 2011 how can I run windows 7 without the optical drive

On the mac mini 2011 how can I run windows 7pm bootcamp without an optical drive. I watch lots of football on sop cast and other such windows based programmes but can't work out how to do it.

Actually Windows can be installed and booted from an external drive if the drive is connected eSATA (external SATA), since the drive is treated as if it's an internal HDD. I used the same method previously to dual-boot from 2 different HDD instead of partitioning.
Most PC motherboards come with them as standard so it's pretty much plug and play but I don't recall seeing a recent Mac with eSATA connectivity though, so that might not be an option for you.

You can't. Only Windows 7 is supported in that configuration.

How can i run Windows on a macbook Pro

Hello
I am close to a business decission to use in future a MACBook Pro with Retsina Display
For Business reasons i have to be able to run also Winodws in a Virtual machine as some company internal applications need Windows
Which program would i use here on the newest MAC-OS
I want to use for private the MAC-OS and run Windows in a virtual environment to avoid Dual boot
Is the winodws Machine from Network, Printer drivers and all other transparent to the network?
bluetooth and other ports transparent supported in Windows?
any restrictions you may know on such environment
What versions of Windows are supported in such a virtuell environment?
Can i run Outllook from Microsoft in MAC-OS ?
Thanks very much for the answers

I second jopilkie's recommendation for Parallels. I've been using Parallels for years - currently using Windows 7 Pro 64-bit with MS Office 2013, a ton of Adobe apps, etc. I use it primarily for Office, Adobe Acrobat Pro, Adobe LiveCycle Designer and a few other apps that aren't available for OS X.
The answer is 'yes' to most of your questions - your network, printing, scanning, Bluetooth, DVD drive(s), external and internal hard drives, etc. can be accessed both in the Windows environment as well as OS X. And you can run Outlook either in on the Mac side or on the Windows side (personally, I signed up for Office 365 - $100 a year and you can install Office on up to 5 machines) - I use Outlook 2013 on the Windows side for three of my email accounts and Outlook 2011 on the Mac side for an additional 3 email accounts: it's nice to keep things separate that way!
I would recommend running Windows 7 - 64-bit, but whichever 'flavor' you prefer. Personally, Pro works just fine for my needs.
But beware Office 2013 on the Windows side - it really takes some familiarity until you become accustomed to it! Too much like Windows 8, but I'm getting used to it...
Call back if you've other questions.
Good luck,
Clinton

How can i run windows programs on my mac?

i have a version of photoshop for windows, and i was wondering if it is possible to run that on my iMac. is there something i need to download?

You have several options:
1. Download and install Apple's Boot Camp which enables you to boot the computer either into Windows XP w/Service Pak 2 or OS X. This is a dual-boot solution.
2. Purchase Parallels Desktop for Mac (www.parallels.com) which is virtualization software and enables you to run Windows (any version) simultaneously with OS X in a separate window.
3. Purchase CodeWeavers' CrossOver (www.codeweavers.com) which enables you to run many Windows' applications without having to install Windows.
All the above require you have an Intel Mac with at least 1 GB of installed RAM.

How can i run windows on osx lion

Hi, some programs don't run anymore on osx lion. So I would like to install windows. How do I need to proceed?
Thanks, Franklin

... don't run anymore
Upgrade when possible.
Downgrade back.
Dual boot 10.6 or even 10.5 (as old as your Mac came with) and Lion -
You can even have a Mac HFS data partition.
Instead of dual booting Windows.
Depends on what. You didn't mention. Or whether they are Windows alternatives that have to run natively. Or could be run in a VM guest OS - but have to share RAM and processor resource, which may not be feasible or run well enough.
Apps incompatible with OS X Lion
keep Snow Leopard when upgrading to Lion

How can I run a servlet with Sun Java System Application Server PE 8?

I've created a package with a TestServlet.class inside, used the deploytool to create a WAR and deployed this using the autodeploy folder.
The filestructure has been generated and I find the TestServlet.class in
[installdir]\domains\domain1\applications\j2ee-modules\testProject\WEB-INF\classes\[packagefolderstructure]\TestServlet.class.
The context root is working fine, but I have no clue how I can run the servlet directly via the URL.
I've tried many things like
http://localhost:8080/testProject/TestServlet
http://localhost:8080/testProject/servlet/TestServlet
http://localhost:8080/testProject/servlet/[packagenamewithpoints]TestServlet
http://localhost:8080/testProject/servlet/[packagenamewithslashes]TestServlet
etc etc
Can somebody tell me please how to write URLs to deployed servlets? Or send me an example url and xml descriptor files?
Thanks a lot in advance!

in web.xml use servlet mapping
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>TestServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/doit</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>then use http://localhost:8080/testProject/doit

How can i run windows on my ipad

Hi
I am thinking of buying a tablet pc right now im basicly just considering my optons on weather to buy a windows tablet, android tablet or an iPad. if this is possible, ill defenitly buy an iPad, if not i dont know. the reason im wondering is simply because i need a lightweight computer/ tablet for regular use, i am often traveling (45 minutes by train to and from my school), i will always have internet acces, (wifi on the train, and 3g) i was wondering if there is a way for me to run the windows from my desktop on my ipad this would make it easier for me to do homework on the train, or simply just play a few games that normally doesnt work for ipad. I frst looked into trying to install windows on it, but only found how to install windows 95. I've heard about splashtop, but if you want to use that over the internet you will need a subscription.
Is there a free, or better way to do this?
it would just be great to use the windows for the school stuff, and maybe a little gaming on the go, aswell as being able to use the ios for the more casual stuff like surfing the web, playing ios games, facetime, imessage, and other things
Thanks for your help
+ i apologise for any confusing mispellings, and bad grammar that may be there. English is not my first language

yes you can use windows on ipad, i am not going to install it, i am simply just finding a fancy way of controlling and using my desktop from a train via the internet. and that is very possible to do, i already know a way actually, what i am asking here is if there is any free ways to do it, or any better apps than splashtop streamer to use and soforth.

How can you run a command with elevated rights on a remote server with invoke-command ?

I am trying to run a script on a remote server with invoke-command. The script is starting and is running fine, but the problem is that it should be running with elevated rights on the remote server. On the server where I start the invoke-command, my account has the necessary rights.
The server were I launch the invoke-command is a W2K8 R2. The remote box is a W2K3 with powershell v2.0 installed.
When I launch the script on the remote-box from the command line, I don't get the access denied's.
Is there a way to do this ?
Thanks in advance

The script that I want to run is to install the windows updates. I get an access denied on the download of the updates.
When I execute the script on an W2K8 box, (not remotely) and I run it with non-elevated rights, I get the same error.
The script is running fine when it is launched on W2K3 box locally with a domain account that has local admin rights, or on a W2K8 R2 server with a domain account that has local admin rights, but with elevated rights.
Thanks in advance for your help.

How can I run Windows XP under 10.10.2?

While I seldom use XP, there are times I need a Windows OS. I run OX 10.10.2 on my late 2012 iMac, and until I updated to Yosemite, I was running under Parallels. I deleted Parallels as I wished to upgrade it, and have lost my Windows OS ability. Any help out there?

When you deleted Parallels, did you also delete the XP virtual machine you'd run using Parallels? If not, Kurt Lang's advice to reinstall Parallels will solve your problem. Or, you can install VMware Fusion, which can also use your VM.

How can I run Photoshop Elements4 with Windows7. The operating system will not open and run it.

My New computer has windows 7 installed, and it will not open and run my photoshop elements 4 programme. Do I need an upgrade, or can it be run in any other format on this computer.

Did it install and you're just getting errors trying to run it? If so, try clicking on your Start button. Then, go to All Programs, find the entry for Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 and "right click" on it. Select Properties, and in the Properties dialogue click the Compatibility Tab and try running it in XP Compatibility mode and see if it works that way.
If not, then it is really not compatible. Just buy the latest (Photoshop Elelments 9) while they offer $40 mail-in rebate (Ends January 5, 2011)

On a Mac Platform, how can I run Windows Media Player, v.9 or above?

There's a program I want to buy that I need have Windows program to run it: "My videos use Windows Media Player version 9 or above. If your current operating system can not support that version, you will not be able to view the videos." I have a PowerPC G3 iMac DV "400". I've heard that there's a program that Macs can run to enable me to use Windows software. Is that the way to go? THANKS for any/all INFO.!!—Leslie:)
PowerPC G3 Mac OS 9.0.x
PowerPC G3 Mac OS 9.0.x I'm in-process of installing OSX Tiger

If you're using OS 9, you really can't as the latest version of WMP for Mac on OS 9 is verson 7.
You'd have to upgrade to OS X for you to be able to use WMP 9.
