I would like to run a stock analysis program called Toolkit 6 on my Macbook Pro, but it only works on the Windows platform. Is there software that allows me to run Windows applications on the Mac?

Yes it's MS Windows! You will need a license of MS Windows (preferable Windows 7) and from there you can decide on the strategy for running Windows on your iMac. You can use Boot Camp (you already have this) or you use virtualization software such as Parallels or Fusion. For your situation I'd recommend virtualization software. However for only one program I'd do some due diligence to see if there is a OS X version. You can start with the App store or simply use Google to search.
Kappy has provided a good article on running Windows on a Mac and the various options. Here is the link:

I have a PC running Windows XP (yes an antique) with CS3 Photoshop and InDesign and lightroom 2 (yes all antiques). I have acquired a PC running Windows 7 with no programs. I also have a MacBook pro with full CS5 suite. The programs were already loaded with I got it as a gift. Question 1. If I find serial numbers used to download programs to the old PC, can those CS3 programs be put on the newer PC. Question 2. I really want to put CS5 suite on PC machines. Is that possible? Especially since my MacBook is showing some hard drive problems.
You should be able to get the CS3 programs installed and running on the new pc since CS3 is spec-ed for Windows 7 Service Pack 1. Downloading the programs does not require a serial number. You can find them here: Download CS3 products but you will need the serial number to activate the programs. You might be able to find that thru your Adobe account online.
You will not be able to install the CS5 Mac version on a PC and you won't be able to trade it to a PC version either due to it being an older version. Trades are allowed only for the latest version (CS6) -
hi i downloaded windows on my macbook pro without bootcamp and it deleted the mac portion of my laptop and i downloaded os x but my laptop started off with os x lion and i want os x lion back on my laptop what do i do now?

I'm confused. Are you saying that your mac came with an older version of OS X, but you want to be able to use OS X Lion, which you downloaded from the App store? If this is not the case, what do you mean by "I downloaded os x but my laptop started off with os x lion and i want os x lion back"? Specifically, what do you mean by "I downloaded OS X" if your mac came with Lion? -
i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?
i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
hence why i have 3 now
hard to believe you cannot combine into one
oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
thanks -
I'm having lots of trouble finding semi-decent equipment at an affordable price. I would like to start a podcast with two hosts and I have a macbook pro that i purchased in april 2011. any suggestions?
I should keep it simple - if you start getting involved with mixers and multiple microphones you will find the cost escalating alarmingly. If you can get yourself a decent microphone and spend some time doing tests to find the best way of balancing the voices you should be able to get acceptable results. You can't plug an ordinary microphone directly into a Mac - you would need a mixer or a preamplifier - so it's probably worth looking at USB mics. I don't know what cost range is available, and you would have to check that they would work with your Mac. Otherwise you will need an ordinary moving-coil mic and probably a USB audio converter which can accept a microphone - look at the Roland site.

These are user to user technical assistance forums, and nobody here represents Apple or any store. In order to find out whether you can buy something at a particular store, you really need to find some way to contact the store directly. -

I downloaded an app on my Mac but it only works on an IPad. Is there anyway to get a refund so I can get the right one?
When downloading apps from a Mac, any apps downloaded in iTunes are for iOS devices.
For Mac Apps use the App Store app.
You can connect iTunes Store Support but I doubt they will give you a refund.

I copied my iTunes music from an old computer to a new Macbook pro but it did not copy the playlists that are on my Nano. How can I copy the playlists and their content on the nano to the Macbook? If I automatically sync the nano from the Macbook, will it scrub the content and existing playlists on the nano?
You need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

How do I fix a initializing problem with my macbook pro? I only get to the blank screen with the apple logo and the "processing something" sign... it just doesn't start the system....
Please help
MarceloIf there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.
Most commonly used backup methods
Sometime that won't work and you need to do more

I have a Serial Number which worked fine on my MacBook Pro but does not work on my desktop PC (Win 7). What is the problem?
You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you. But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.
For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

IPhone photo stream photos import to macbook Pro but photos in albums on the same phone do not?
iPhone photo stream photos import to macbook Pro but photos in albums on the same phone do not?
When I connected my iPhone to the MB-Pro and imported the photos, all the ones on the phone in "the photo stream" came in fine,
But I have 4 "albums" containing different photos. How do I get those photos into iPhoto ... short of emailing them to myself?When you connect your iPhone to the computer and import, all photos in the camera roll will be imported, but not the photos in other albums, for example, albums that have been synced to your iPhone. Sp, to import other photos from synced albums, you have to save these photos to the camera roll or use iTunes Photo Sharing.
See this document - the section on "Importing Photos to your Computer": iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
