I need to run windows program's like word and excel and PowerPoint etc on my mac for college , how can I do it?

You can install Office for Mac
You can install Windows using Boot Camp Assistant then install Office for Windows in your Windows installation
You can install Windows and Office for Windows using a virtual machine like Fusion, Parallels, or VirtualBox

How do I run Windows programs on my iMac and my MiniMac?

I have a new iMac and a new MiniMac at the office. Can I run Windows programs on these computers, such as QuickBooks? If so, how do I do it?

If you want to run MS Windows applications on your iMac and Mac Mini you need a license of MS Windows at a minimum. Then you need to decide how you want to run the apps, you can use Boot Camp which allows you to install MS Windows on your computer and then boot your computer as either a MS Windows machine or OS X machine. The advantage of this is there is no cost (except for MS Windows) as Boot Camp comes with every Mac. You will find Boot Camp Setup Assistant in (Applications - Utilities - Boot Camp Setup Assistant). The other solution is virtualization software such as Parallels or VM Ware Fusion. The advantage of virtualization software is you can run MS Windows and OS X simultaneously. This is ideal if you are not doing graphics intensive applications such as 3D gaming, CAD/CAM or 3D renderings. For applications like QuickBooks it would be great.
The downside of running MS Windows on your Mac is that portion of the computer will be susceptible to all the problems PC's have such as Virus's and other malware. So whatever solution you get you need to also get anti-virus software and other anti-malware. The upside is if Windows becomes diseased this in no way affects OS X.
Finally your best solution is to look for OS X versions of your applications. I know there is a OS X version of QuickBooks however I have no idea how Intuit's licensing works, you would need to contact Intuit to ask that question.

I need OS Lion to make my computer run, but I dont have it in my apple acount, and the computer just ask me for that, how can I install hte software if the only way is using apple id?

I need OS lion, to run my the computer, I made a restore trying to install mountain lion, but the computer doesnt allow me, it ask me for the OS LION, and I dont have it in my apple account, how to I install it? Help!!!!

So it sounds as though you wiped your drive and it can't find the system (OS startup) folder because there is none (folder with ?).
One more question: did your machine come with Lion?? Or did you purchase it at the app store? If it came with the machine, then it would not show in the app store.
You tried recovery and said it "made an internet recovery" - when you booted up with Command + R, did you at first see a spinning globe? If not, there was no internet recovery. Try restarting with Command + Option + R - on older machines, that is internet recovery (if your machine supports it). You should wind up with a screen like this:
Is this what you saw before? You can erase your drive in Disk Utility. When done, you need to click on Reinstall OS X - it will then go to Apple's servers and download the entire OS. Once downloaded (may take a while unless you have a blazing connection), it will install. It should also recreate a new recovery partition.

What do I need to run Windows on a Mac and Word for Windows?

I have a Mac OS X Lion and would like to run Windows programs which are only programmed to run on Windows. What do I need so that I can run Windows and Microsoft Word.

"I have a Mac OS X Lion and would like to run Windows programs which are only programmed to run on Windows."
Your best bet is to use VirtualBox to provide a virtual machine capability allowing the installation of a guest OS like windows. I've used VB extensively for years and I highly recommend it's use for your issue.
If you have a full version of windows, you could use bootcamp as an alternative to VB but you lose the ability to access the OSx environment while booted in windows.
Best of luck

How much RAM do I need to run windows through paralells sucessfully/smoothly?

I have a MacBook with 2 gb of memory and need to run a program for school that is only available through windows. The program requires 128 mb ram to run. What would be the system requirements necessary to run windows through paralells and then this program on top of it. Do I have what it takes? or is my MacBook able to be upgraded to meet those requirements?

You didn't mention which version of Windows the program requires, or which MacBook Pro model you have.
I have successfully run Windows Microsoft Office 2010 and other older Windows applications under both XP and WIndows 7 with Parallels 5 in 2Gb of total RAM on my mid 2007 MacBook 2,1 with integrated GMA 950 video on both Mac OS X 10.5.8 'Leopard' (though Win 7 is not 'officially supported') and 10.6.6 'Snow Leopard'
But performance is, uh, 'limited', especially for processor-intensive applications like graphics programs.
My Core2Duo 2.16Ghz processor often runs at 100% of one processor, so the fan is often running at high speed all the time Windows is running. It is still possible to run Mac applications like Mail and Safari at the same time.
Since I upgraded to 4Gb RAM (although by design, my Mac 2,1 system only recognizes 3Gb) Windows 7 runs a bit better, though still at a slower speed than the same program with Windows 7 under Boot Camp where it has access to the full 3Gb.
I do own a copy of Parallels 6, purported to provide some performance gains, but I have not yet installed it, because I doubt that my current configuration will provide enough performance gains to warrant the time and trouble to install Parallels 6 and then have to once again deal with Microsoft Support over yet another 'reinstallation' of my perfectly legitimate, legal copy of Windows 7 Home Premium.
If you don't need simultaneous access to both Windows and Mac applications, Boot Camp will likely give you adequate performance with XP in 2Gb. RAM memory upgrades are certainly available from Apple and reliable vendors such as Other World Computing (www.macsales.com) where I've purchased several of my RAM and hard drive upgrades for a MacBook and a MacBook Pro.

I need to run windows in my Macbook

Hello,
I need to run Windows in my Macbook.
So I know I need to get Parallels or VM Fusion.
What I don't know is how do I get a windows program and which one? I checked and there are SP2 and SP2 ORM? Which one I need?
Thanks
ZK

Hi ZK and welcome to Discussions,
the OEM (not ORM) version of Windows XP with SP2 will work just fine with either Parallels, VMWare Fusion or Apples BootCamp.
Have Fun

Running windows programs on a power mac g5

Hi i have a power mac g5 and was wondering if there was any way that i could run windows programs on it. I noticed that there was a program called parralle boot? But as i am awear you need to have an intel mac to make this work. Is there any way to make this happen for me?

Virtual PC (from Microsoft) was the way to run Windows on a PowerPC Mac. It did it by emulation, so it's not as fast as the current +virtual machine+ options, such as Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion on Intel Macs. It should work reasonably well on a Power Mac G5, but it will still be slow compare to running Windows on a real Intel PC.
Microsoft no longer offers Virtual PC for Mac, but it is available from retailers if you search online. The last version was 7, and you can download updaters to update any version 7 release to 7.0.3.

PLSQL WANTS TO RUN WINDOWS PROGRAM FROM PLSQL PROCEDURE

WANTS TO RUN WINDOWS PROGRAM FROM PLSQL PROCEDURE.
I want to run EXE file from pl/sql program , i have tried host it does
work in pl/sql .
Is there any Solution to this problem
Thank you

Hi,
It sounds like what you are trying to do, is run one mapping in a pre-mapping process of another mapping. You use a wrapper that implements sqlplus_exec_template.sql in PL/SQL. Is that correct?
I don't think that by the way you execute this mapping, it ends up in the context of the process flow. The reason is because according to Warehouse Builder the mapping is being invoked standalone (through the wrapper that implements the template). As a result, the context in which Warehouse Builder would log the messages is lost.
What I suggest you do (assuming I understand the problem correctly), is run the mapping as a separate mapping in the process flow. Because in the current release we do not support passing output parameters in the process flow, you will have to (temporarily) store the results of the first mapping in a table and pick it up from there in the other mapping. In the next major release (autumn 2004) we will support passing parameters between activities.
Thanks,
Mark.

Need to run windows OS on my macbook pro at the same time with MAC OS. what do i use

I need to run windows OS & office so i can access my company server. What is the best platform to use & which will enable you to run both oS at the same time.
Thanks

Depending on the specific features that you think you need in a Virtual Machine, you should research the paid "Parallels" and "VMWare Fusion", and the free yet very capable "VirtualBox". I personally use VirtualBox because it does NOT include all of the Mac-to-VM interactivity features that the others do. For performance and security reasons, I specifically do not want my VM to be able to interact with my Mac OS host in any way other than copy and paste.
On your Windows VM, if you are running windows 8.1, and are not logged in as an administrator as your primary account, then the built in Windows Defender is a perfectly suitable for anti-malware protection. If you are running Windows 7 (or 8.1) and want additional protection I would recommend "BitDefender Free" as it has great protection yet has a very light-weight performance hit.

Running Windows programs in OS X`

Somebody told me that OS X has been capable of running Windows programs for the past year. It was something that Steve Jobs said in his keynote speach a while back.
I was wondering if anyone has done this, and how do I go about doing it?
Something about Rosetta or something?

OS X has been capable of running Windows programs by using VirtualPC, a commercial program that has been around for many years. I think what you're remembering was that Steve said Apple has been building special versions of OS X for use on Intel-based machines for the past year (several, actually). Rosetta is a program that lets programs built for PowerPC (the standard OS X machines) to run on these Intel-based machines as well. That way if you buy an Intel-based Mac, you can still use older software instead of having to buy new stuff specifically written for the new hardware.

Plz help!!!

In my opinion LabVIEW would be up to the task. However on important thing to note is that you can write inefficient code in any language. I would venture to guess that if you wrote the C++ code (sounds like you don't have much experience in that arena) there would be more risk of writing inefficient code than in a language you have experience with. In addition, LabVIEW makes it easy to support parallel processing which can improve your performance. Parallel programming in C++ is non-trivial. LabVIEW is a fully compiled language and doesn't suffer from performance hits you get from interpretive script languages.
BTW, the problem you described doesn't sound very taxing on a well written LabVIEW application.
You may want to look at some of the videos of the demos from this year's NI Week. There were some extremely powerful applications that very doing some very heavy duty number cruntching and data acquision.

I am running windows XP professional X64 Edition and it is necessary for me to instll Adobe reader 9

I am running windows XP profession X64 edition and it is necessary for me to install and use Adobe reader 9. Please advise procedure(s)

If you're NEVER going to EVER open a PDF, then no, it wouldn't be necessary. But you're going to be in an extremely rare set of circumstances if that's going to be the case.
Otherwise, you'll need it, and Reader 11 works with XP Pro.

Hello,
There are no files like that in that folder (com.apple.safari). They all have long numbers with .jpeg or .png at the end. That's what I meant by I cannot find any files like those mentioned in all the helps I read today. BTW-it's still crashing - no particular pattern to it at all.
The only two things I have downloaded recently is a new version of Flash and a Mac-driven update to Office.
Thank you very much for your attempt to help us.
