I use VMware Fusion, will it still work if I upgrade to Lion

I use VMware Fusion to use Quicken in Windows. Just want to be sure before doing the upgrade to Lion that it will still work? Thanks in advance.

You have to check with VMFusion, but my advice is to wait a few more months so the bugs are completely worked out if your very dependent upon things working.
I run Fusion myself.

Will software still work if I upgrade to snow leopard

Hi I am using OSX 10.4.1 Tiger on my IMAC and I am wanting to upgrade to Snow Leopard but I am concerned if my existing software will still work on Snow Leopard as when I upgraded my laptop from snow leopard to Lion so that I could upgrade to ICloud none of my software works as it says it is 'powerpc' version and Lion does not support - is this the same in Snow Leopard.
Packages I am concerned about are Illustrator CS2, Indesign CS2, Quark Xpress 6.5 and Photoshop CS 2 and 7

Lion/101.7 System requirements
    •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
    •    At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
    •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
    •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

If it's only eMail you need, then you can do it now without upgrading...
Get an iCloud account first.
MobileMe & dot Mac will still work last I heard.

CS6 on Mountain Lion - will it still work if I upgrade to Mavericks?

We currently have CS6 working on Mountain Lion and I have been reluctant to upgrade to Mavericks as I worry it will stop working or cost a fortune to upgrade the software to work
Has anyone already upgraded and not had issues or is it problematic?
I also have the same worry about MS Office for Mac (but at least that is a bit cheaper to replace than CS6)

Kez, I can confirm that CS6 runs just fine in Mavericks. I use the main apps all the time for university.
Premeire, Photoshop, Bridge, and Audition all work without issue.

I bought Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional a few years before, Will it still work?

I bought Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional a few years before, Will it still work? I have the serial number and CD.
Or do I have to pay monthly subscription to convert pdf to word, to use pdf reader etc?

You may or may not be able to install Acrobat 7.0 on a modern operating system.
Also, you can no longer activate Acrobat 7.0 with your original serial number; you need to download the installer and get a special serial number from this website https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.ht ml

Will Final Cut Pro 4.5 still work if I upgrade to Mac OS X v10.5.4?

Will Final Cut Pro 4.5 still work if I upgrade to Mac OS X v10.5.4?

I'm with Jon on this one. I know someone who uses FCP 5.0 on a MacBook Pro, he has all sorts of wierd issues including:
Projects he has created throwing up an error message "Unreadable on this machine" when re-opened.
Projects losing and refusing to connect to render files.
Dissolves simply not working -this is not to do with lack of handles, it just happens.
LiveType and FCP's own title generator files not automatically compositing.
Lots of kernel panics and unexpected quits.
These might not happen all the time, but always crop up at the worst possible moment.
I can move his project files and media to my setup and everything works.

Shut down issue on 27" iMac running Windows XP using VMWare Fusion 3

I'm running Windows XP on a 27" iMac using VMWare Fusion 3. When I try to shut down the Mac system without using Windows, a dark (not black) screen covers the screen from top to bottom and presents me with a screen, stating in multiple languages that I must press the power button for 5 seconds and then restart the Mac. Then the iMac will close normally.
However, if I run both the Mac system and Windows, and then close Windows, VMFWare Fusion 3, followed by the Mac system, the iMac shouts down normally.
What's going on? Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have a solution?

I run XP under Fusion 3 and have not seen this issue. What you are getting is a Kernel Panic. There should be more information in your console logs about the reason.
Here is some info on KPs to help you.

Goodluck.

Will mail still work on my power mac G5 after icloud?

I have an intel macbook pro that I suppose I need to upgrade so I can use icloud. But will mail still work on my Power Mac G5 that can not be upgraded past Leopard?

You should be able to enter the email server settings manually:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmail.html
This page assumes Snow Leopard: probably Leopard, where Mail is similar, should work but I can't confirm it. The key item is the ability to use SSL, which MobileMe doesn't.

I have an older Hitachi widescreen 1080p TV that has a DVI input, no HDMI input. Is there an adapter and if so will it still work?

I have an older Hitachi widescreen 1080p TV that has a DVI input, no HDMI input. Is there an adapter and if so will it still work?

As HDMI is the only supported method there will no guarantee with any converter.
DVI doesn't tranfer audio so you would have to either go through optical to connect speakers, or use a DAC in connection with analogue speakers.
Also, unless the TV is HDCP compliant you will be unable to play protected content (ie iTunes, Netflix)

Upgrade CS4 to CS5 - Will CS4 Still Work?

I have CS4 Web Premium on a Windows Vista X64 machine. I have downloaded trial of CS5 Web Premium and everything seems to work fine (i.e. both versions are running on this computer and seem to work fine).
My question is: If I upgrade to CS5, will CS4 still work?
The main reason I ask is that I have onOne software Plug-in suite 4.5 running on Photoshop CS4. onOne is charging $149 to upgrade to a version that works on CS5. I still want to be able to use onOne, but, at this point, not enough to pay their upgrade price.
I appreciate anyone that can offer some input.
Thanks, Wayne

Bob,
I guess my real question was what would happen to CS4 when I activated CS5. Considering the licensing practices of software companies today, I wasn't sure. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

If my PC is connected to a broadband internet not wifi, will iCloud still work?

If my PC is connected to a broadband internet not wifi, will iCloud still work?

I setup my PC and iPhone 4s to be able to use iCloud, but some how when i take a photo with my iPhone or manually drag a photo into a folder in my PC, no picture appears to be in icloud. However when i go on to the www.icloud.com and edit my contact there, it seems to sync with my iPhone...

If i buy an iPhone in the USA will it still work when i move to Canada?, If i buy an iPhone in the USA will it still work when i move to Canada?

If i buy an iphone in the USA will it still work when i move back to Canada?

You would probably want to look at a factory unlocked iPhone so you do not have to use a contract with a US carrier. And look at the network standards being used, in the US iPhones are CDMA (verizon and Sprint) and GSM (AT&T). What are the carriers in Canada using? If majority, or the carrier in your location are GSM then you should look at the GSM iPhone. Also check warranty and applicability in Canada...iPhone warranties are supposed to be valid only in the country of purchase.
AppleCare+ is available in the US and Canada but, again, be sure you can transfer the coverage to Canada.

How do I get water out my laptop? And will it still work?

How do I get water out of my Mac book and will it still work?

You can't and it won't, it's done for.
Take the hard drive out, use a SATA to USB adapter cable and install MacDrive in Windows to read files or use Migration Assistance on your new Mac to transfer apps and files over.

If i buy a new ipad and bring it to England will it still work with the different voltages and the 3G/4G?

if i buy a new ipad and bring it to England will it still work with the different voltages and the 3G/4G?

They both seem to cover the same 3G bands - from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/ :
Wi-Fi + 4G for AT&T model: 4G LTE (700, 2100 MHz); UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
Wi-Fi + 4G for Verizon model: 4G LTE (700 MHz); CDMA EV-DO Rev. A (800, 1900 MHz);UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
CDMA isn't any use here as there aren't any UK CDMA based carriers, they are all GSM/sim card based (I'm not aware of any CDMA carriers in Europe). As the AT&T version appears to support an extra 4G LTE band then that might be the better one.

First, you can install Microsoft's Security Essentials in the Win 7 VM and keep it up-to-date. Second, you can turn off Sharing in Fusion's System Settings to keep the VM environment separate from your Mac. Third, you can look into Sophos Anti-Virus http://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/sophos-antivirus-for-mac-home-ed ition/download.aspx for the Mac host.
