I can play with an iMac?

First of all forgive for my English because this is a translation of google.
I want to buy a 27 inch Imac, with the highest processor range, with the highest graphicrange and 8 gb of ram and was wondering if I can play games of last generation. I'm talking about games like Battlefield 3, Call of Duty 4 in good condition and no slowdowns.
From what I've seen and read in the forums I recommend not buying an iMac and Irecommend buying a non-Apple because they are not configured to play. It's more moreyesterday I was at an Apple Store in Marbella (Spain) and I do not give a reply supueronthis same question.
What I want to know and at some point if I want to play these types of games if I can do?
Thanking you for your answers.

Depending on the file format those movies you are trying to watch use, you may need to download and install this Free player (others have had to also):

    OK.
    Not sure why you are in the itunes forum.
    Your issue is with your MP3 player.  Go to their support page.
    Itunes syncs with Apple devices.  It has little or nothing to do with other players.
    Does your MP3 player support the file type of the song that your downloaded?

    Never mind, I already found the solution myself.
    What I did wrong was:
    - not copying the master image to the nbi folder
    - selecting the netinstall-restore.dmg image as source to copy to my HD.
    The thing is, when you create a netinstall image for 10.5, the image itself is already included in the netinstall image so you don't have to do anything else.
    With the 10.4 image however, you also have to copy the master image to the NetBootSP0 directory.
    In the *.nbi folder contains an netinstall-restore.dmg file. But that is only to boot you to netrestore, it's not the image itself.
    Other alternative is to copy the images to another folder that you share with AFP and adjust the configuration of netrestore like described in this manual:
    http://www.shellharbourd.det.nsw.edu.au/pdf/misc/osxrestoringnet.pdf
    This manual was also how I figured out that I forgot to copy the image to the NetBootSP0 folder.

  • I am trying to change my NAT type from strict to Open so i can play with my friends but i dont know how to do it on my Apple Airport. Help please?!?!

    .

    Unfortunately, the AirPorts are not listed as Xbox Live-compatible routers ... so there is no guarantee doing this will get Open NAT status for Xbox Live!
    The following web blog does a great job explaining the NAT issues with Xbox Live! Basically what it comes down to is that although you can get an Internet connection for the Xbox with the AirPorts, you may not get the necessary NAT setting (Moderate or Open) for the Xbox Live! on-line game that you want to play. As such, you basically have two options: 1) Create a DMZ (Apple calls this a Default Host) for the XBox or 2) Configure the AirPort for Port mapping to open the required ports to allow Xbox Live! access ... or 3) Use a compatible router.
    Option 1 - Create a DMZ
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup > Internet > NAT
    Enable default host at: <Enter the IP Address for the XBox>
    Option 2 - Configure Port Mapping
    The following ports must be available for Xbox Live to operate correctly:
    UDP 88
    UDP 3074
    TCP 3074
    To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
    1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the Xbox 360.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup > Internet > DHCP tab
    Click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
    Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
    Reserve address by: MAC Address
    Click Continue.
    MAC Address: <Enter the MAC hardware address of the Xbox or the MAC address of the wireless depending on how you connect the XBox to the network.>
    IPv4 Address: <enter the desired Private IP address>
    Click Done.
    2. Setup Port Mapping on the AirPort.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup > Internet > NAT > Configure Port Mappings
    Click the "+" (Add) button
    Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
    Public UDP Port(s): 88, 3074
    Public TCP Port(s): 3074
    Private IP Address: <enter the DHCP Reserved IP address for the Xbox you created earlier>
    Private UDP Port(s): 88, 3074
    Private TCP Port(s): 3074
    Click "Continue"

  • If I erased all data and the games data how I can play with games and i lost my data

    Help me please

    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad (which will include apps) to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases - you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (a backup will include your apps content and settings).
    You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

  • Can a BlackBerry with Bluetooth sync with an iMac?

    I am considering getting a Bluetooth cell phone, possibly a BlackBerry Pearl, and wanted to know if they can sync with my iMac?

    Hi Steve, 
    Do you have experience of PocketMac? Unfortunately I paid for PocketMac Pro (which is for PocketPC devices rather than for BlackBerry). In 15 months of PocketPC ownership I never once achieved anything close to a full sync. I ended up re-installing Tiger twice on my Powerbook, recreating all my calendars in Entourage and then again in iCal all to no avail. Their support was unhelpful. I was unable to un-install PocketMac Pro properly even after digging around in System > Library and Library because it hooks so deeply into the system. Whilst still present on my system (even after the uninstaller was run, it would still obviously be present in iSync and cause iSync to crash). A Tiger re-install seemed to be my only option.
    I can't say for sure that PocketMac for Blackberry will be nearly as ineffective in syncing or as bad for the system but I would seriously advise the OP to take a clone of their system before allowing any PocketMac product near OS X and be ready to clone it back to restore normal use.
    Personally I swapped to a SonyEricsson mobile phone which syncs perfectly with iSync/iCal/AddressBook and no extras required; of course it's not the email machine the BlackBerry is.
    regards

  • Is there a file browser which can play DVD contents from Time Capsule?

    Using File Manager (free Zheng) app I can reach all my files on the Time Capsule (3TB) from my iPad Air2 (64GB). Also I am able to play video content MP4. So far so good.
    However I have also several DVD VOB files of homevideo. These I can play on my iMac using DVD player or VLC.
    Is there a way to play the DVD content just as easy as the MP4 files do on my iPad? Most file browser do not support this.
    I have read a solution to perform it via a server via my iMac. However this is not to my liking.
    Should it be possible to re-direct a file URL to lets say VLC player like Stratospherix filebrowser can do?
    Is there a good file browser which can play VOB DVD contents?
    Can anybody help me before buying several apps and perform the trial and error method ?

    I'd recommend File Explorer (orange icon on the iOS app store) - find your NAS with it and try and play your media. It has a video decoder built in so should be able to handle your MP4s. If not, Plex is very good - but would require £2.99 and your Mac to be on when you wanted to watch on your iPad. Let me know how you get on.

  • Why cant i play games like wgtgolf this computer windows7. can play on internet explorer9 and chorme

    toshiba laptop windows7. cant play wgtgolf with this browser can play with chrome or internet explower9

    Perhaps you need to install the Flash player? The other two browsers are a separate concern; Internet Explorer uses the so-called ActiveX version of Flash and Chrome bundles and automatically maintains its own copy of Flash. You can easily obtain a version of Flash that works with Firefox from here:-
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox/
    NOTE: You can also get Flash from Adobe's website but I don't recommend it. The FileHippo website provides a direct download link from Adobe, without enticing the user to install unnecessary add-ons and third party software.

  • IMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. Started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup. I can get into safe mode. Tried install disc for disc utility and reloaded OS. Still get blue screen.

    I have an older iMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. The other day I started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup.
    I can get into safe mode. But no regular startup.
    I tried disabling bluetooth, thinking that might be related. It didn't help.
    I even tried using the install disc to run disc utility. That didn't work so I reloaded the OS.
    But I still get hung on the blue screen when trying a normal startup.
    All help would be appreciated.

    Try resetting the PMU/SMU and PRAM/NVRAM. You'd need to identify the mode of resetting depending on the model of your G5 iMac. The Apple support sites that would help you for this are –

    Perian 1.2.3 *should* work for both QuickTime & and QTX in Mountain Lion. Regardless of the filetype container, whether it is a Matroska (.mkv) or a .mov. As to the actual encoding of the file (h264, .mp2, whatever..) I have found most play, even older formats.
    Even though it's no longer supported and is a dead project, it works just fine. It will load as a System Preference file and adds to the Other category in them.
    I think in 10.8 you've still got support for QTX so it may work with that. (in Mavericks, it only works for QT7)
    If not, just run QuickTime 7.6.6.
