I have WIN 8 Pro to put onto an Intel MacBook Pro, how should I proceed?

I have a fuly updated MacBook Pro With an Intel CPU Late 2011 model, running the updated Mountain Lion OS, with 8 gb memory installed.
I also have a x'mas gifted WIn 8 Pro to install, hopefully via bootcamp.
I cant find much positive assistance via research, to proceed yet.
Can I use the Win 7 Boot camp assistant to install Win 8?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks to both mende 1 and Chamar,
Seems I should have looked up this forum before I uninstalled "Parallel 7", but that's fate for you!
Luckily everything is backed up, so will do a restore, update to Parra 8 , and try from there.
I bet that as soon as I get this sorted APPLE will come out with an updated WIN 8 compatable Bootcamp.
Fate and Nature will always retain the upper hand!
Thanks again boys.

Hi, I have had my MacBook Pro stolen and the police have mentioned about using iCloud to see if I can track it's whereabouts - however I have no idea if I had iCloud on my MacBook or how to track it if I did - can anyone help me please? Thanks :)

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
To see if you have iCloud, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. If you can access to iCloud, you have iCloud. If you get an error message or you can't access, you don't have iCloud. This only works if you only have the Mac (not an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with iCloud).
Apart from that, "Find my Mac" must be turned on in the Mac in order to track it, so if it wasn't turned on, you won't be able to track it. If it was turned on, the computer must be connected to the Internet to be tracked.
If you can access to iCloud through http://www.icloud.com, choose "Find my iPhone" and look at the Devices list. If your MacBook Pro shows up, "Find my Mac" is turned on, so see if you can track it and tell to the police that it's possible to track your MacBook Pro

My Macbook has been stolen & i'm trying to load films which i'd purchased on it from my itunes a/c onto my new Macbook.
How do i do this?

You can't, unless you have a backup of your old computer's drive..
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; only apps, books (not audiobooks), music, and t.v. shows (not movies). Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.

Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears:
"The licensing of the product does not work"
Fault 6
How should I proceed?
Have the program installed on only one computer.

Download the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool.
Run the License Service Update.
Mac OS X 10.7 and above:
a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg It will extract the folder. Open the folder.
b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
c. Double-click Applications.
d. Double-click Utilities.
e. Double-click Terminal.
f. Type sudo python
Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery111 folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return.
It should look like this:
h. Enter your administrator user name and password when prompted and click OK.
(Note: the cursor will not move and you will not see stars or dots, just enter your password anyway.
i. Let the script run, it will tell you when it is finished. Quit terminal and restart Photoshop

Sorry No, if your screen is broken, then you won't be able to unlock your phone.
You do backup your phone on a regular basis right?

I have win 7 pro and the download for jre 7u10 does not work on Firefox17, I have installed and uninstalled, but works on internet explorer.

I have uninstalled jre7u10, the latest version of java, and re-installed this several times and it will NOT work on Firefox 17. I have checked that the plugins are downloaded in the add-ons tab and made sure they are Enabled. I have tried disabling every plugin I have on the page, but it still will NOT run on FF 17. So, I have uninstalled jre7u10 in windows control panel. I got the jre7u10 download for windows 7 from the actual java website.
I don't know what else to do. I am totally confused as to why it works on Internet explorer but not Firefox 17. It gives me an error message on a chat window on one of my sites that says error client class not found, But I DON'T get this error when I use Internet explorer because the chat window works with it. HELP PLEASE ???????????
I am not that good with computers so take it easy on me please.
Thanks in advance

I questioned that 64 bit version thing and when I checked the download it sent me to the java version 32 bit for windows 7. The download of jre 32 bit works for my computer on internet explorer but not for firefox 17. I also checked firefox and there is not a 64 bit version browser. so I don't get this at all. anyway, I don't know what a 64 bit vs a 32 bit means but someone asked me to check that too on the site I went to they thought it might be different browser. It's not.

I have a mac pro how can i import/transfer my favorites from safari and google chrome to firefox ?

i have a MacBook Pro I usually use safari as my browser, i have downloaded firefox as well as google chrome. i would like to have my favorites i use for safari also for firefox, how do i do this ? i see they have step by step instructions but only for window users.thank you

Simple, call the 800 number Apple Store and they will provide link to download.
For some reason seems they think someone might mistake or be confused and... buy wrong OS (when they wanted Mountain Lion).
Be sure before running the install, to save the package file to USB flash + DVD and someplace safe so you don't have to redownload and so you can do clean install later if you need to (you can always install to a new alternate drive but most don't realize).
Also makes for a nice way to clean out, start fresh whatever your system has accumulated.
Lion lacks PowerPC code support via Rosetta so keeping a dual boot system of both at least for couple months is good idea too -
Setup Assistant will still import from your old system so it isn't like there is a lot of extra work with a clean install either.

I have just downloaded the Mountain Lion Update and would like to put it on my macbook. How do I do that?

How do I get Mountain Lion on my macbook after I have downloaded and installed it on my IMAC?

You'll need to sign in with the same ID on both computers to download it.
Or you can re-download it on the machine where you installed Mountain Lion (as it's deleted when you install it), and then you can copy it to the other machine and double click it to launch it and install.

Now that i have a mac pro.how can i use a portable hard drive while i have the time machine working on my mac?

Do you mean you're already backing-up to a Time Capsule, and want to switch to using an external HD? If so, just format the drive and select it via Time Machine Preferences > Select Disk. See #21 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
If you mean something else, please clarify.

How should I proceed with installing Windows on my Macbook Pro through Boot Camp?

Hello,
I have never installed Windows on a Mac. I found the official guidebook from Apple online, but I want to make sure I am buying the right type of Windows before I get it. So should I get 32 Bit or 64 Bit Windows 7? What other major things should I keep in mind as I'm getting ready to install Windows? I have made a Time Machine backup for my computer on an external hard drive. I want to make sure that I am not leaving out anything major in terms of how I should prepare for the process. I have Mac OS X 10.9.2, if the version is significant. Let me know what other info you need about my computer if you need any.
Thank you.

I have to replace my hard drive in my 2008 macbook. HOW DO I BUY A NEW HARD DRIVE???

The apple genius said I can easily buy one online and a 10 year old could put it in. However, all of the hard drives I'm seeing mention PC rather than Mac.

SATA drives are the same for Mac, PC or PlayStation. It's the way that they're formatted that make the difference.
For a hard drive try Newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=380&name=Laptop-Hard-Dr ives&Order=PRICE
Or OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
Here's instructions on replacing the hard drive http://creativemac.digitalmedianet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=45088
To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application Carbon Copy Cloner. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.bombich.com/index.html You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case and clone your old drive to the new one. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one.
With the new drive plugged in, open Disk Utility. It's in the Utililities folder in your Applications folder. You should see the new drive in the left hand column along with your other drives. Click on the new drive and select the Erase tab. Set the format value to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Erase button. After that has finished select the Partition tab. Type in a Name for your hard drive and select how many partitions you want from the Volume Scheme. The usual setting is one partition. Click on the Options button after you've selected a partition to make sure it's set for GUID. Then click the Apply button and after the partitioning is done quit Disk Utility. Your new drive should now appear on your desktop. Then clone your old drive to the new one.
Here's a cheap SATA external hard drive case on eBay http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-2-5-SATA-HDD-HARD-DRIVE-EXTERNAL-ENCLOSURE-CASE-BOX-/120 636286623?pt=PCC_Drives_Storage_Internal&hash=item1c167ba69f

I have a problem with transfering photos from iPad to MacBook Air, how do I go about doing that?

Photos from iPad to MacBook Air, I am currently trying to use my USB cord to transfer photos, but how?

You can only import photos in the camera roll, not synced photos. So I assume that you want to transfer the photos that you shot with the iPad camera. You can use iPhoto or Image Capture on the MBA.
Just connect the iPad to the Mac with the cable and launch either of those two apps. Your iPad should appear under the devices heading in the left sidebar of the app. Click on the iPad name just like you do when you sync with iTunes and the camera roll photos should appear in the window on the right.

Problems connecting - 9i and Win XP Pro

First off, I am a super duper beginner so I understand nothing of this application. I have Win XP Pro and have learned that 8i has issues with P4's so downloaded 9i instead of using the 8i CD I have. I also have the CD for Forms and Reports 6i also. My reason for the installation is a database programming class I am taking. At the current time I have 9i installed and I also installed 6i though am unsure if 9i will work with 6i. I tried to connect to SQL Plus using the username, pw, and hostname my professor gave me and I got an error msg saying "ORA-12541 TNS:no listener" BUT when I check the listener control thing and tell it to start the listener I get an error because it says it has already started and if i stop it and then start it again I still get the same message. I am able to log on to SQL using the generic username and password "Scott" and "tiger" with no hostname but I am unsure if this means anything as I know my info is correct. I am wondering if anyone can help me out. I no nothing about this application to be able to troubleshoot further and also am wondering if 9i will work with 6i. Thanks for reading this far and thanks in advance for any assistance. I think I have installed this app 3 times now and would love to get it all working properly so I can do my assignments....
Jo-Anne

Thanks for the reply. He gave us each our own usernames, our own passwords and the hostname to connect to the school. The school dns or ip address, either one, is not his it is the school's oracle server. I used my username and password and it gave me the listener error. In order for me to work from home I have to connect to the school's oracle server, i can't leave it blank. Does that make sense? Thanks again.
