If i install yosemite on my 2014 mbp with windows 8.1 will there be a problem

hey guys
i have held out on Yosemite because i have heard that some people with bootcamp already installed that tried to install Yosemite have problems with there bootcamp. all i am asking is if someone like me who has installed windows 8.1 the standard (vanilla) way via bootcamp would have a problem accessing my windows 8.1 partition and or does it get deleted. i am eager to try out Yosemite because of its cool features.
thank you very much

Please install Yosemite on a different physical disk and test it out. Do not upgrade to Yosemite if you have Windows on the same physical drive. Also, install Yosemite on an external drive on a different machine if possible.
Apart from BC, there are also known WiFi issues with Yosemite.

    Hi,
    Since you already have one copy activated the serial number must be logged in your account details - I would first check that the one logged and the one you are attempting to enter are the same.
    You can check your account details by going to www.adobe.com and clicking on Manage Account. You need to sign in with your Adobe Id and then click on View All under Plans & Products. Next click on View your products and after a while it should produce your list.
    If there is a problem with the serial number, only Adobe can help you there (we are just users). Please see the response in this thread
    First of all, I would have to say that getting in touch with you is a nightmare and I am not at all happy that I can't just email or live chat with someone who can help!  I am not a technical person, I just want to be able to use Photoshop Elements and ge

    Nothing in the Acrobat 8.x product family is compatible with Windows 7 (or any contemporary OS).
    The Acrobat 8.x product family passed into End of Support way back -- (November 2011).
    The current release of Acrobat (XI) is compatible in Windows 7.

    It is critically important for you to have created Recovery media before attempting to create a dual boot installation. Make sure that it works by performing a Factory Image recovery.
    Make sure that the Ubuntu type matches the Windows 8,1 type. That is critical for a dual boot installation.
     A 64-bit OS type will see or recognize other 32 and 64-bit operating system.  
    If you have a 32-bit Ubuntu it will not see Windows 8.1 as being present.
    A 64-bit version of Ubuntu will work well with a 64 or 32-bit version of Windows 8.1.

    What is the size of your hard disk?  PSE 4 is a very old program and I suspect it is not able to access the entire hard disk on your machine.  Just a thought here.

  • Installing Yosemite on iMac 2013 hangs with status bar midway

    Trying to install Yosemite, but screen just displays a white screen with apple logo and the status bar is around 50 %
    been running for about 4.5 hrs, will leave overnight, but then what if no joy.
    I Thought that Apple was good over these types of things, it is a Apple iMac 27" 2012 machine with 8Gb Ram.
    thanks

    If you use the power button to shut down and then restart does it boot?  menu/About This Mac - what is installed?
    Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
    Revert to a Previous OS X - Yosemite
    Revert Yosemite to Mavericks
    If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

  • Bluetooth for MBP with Windows 7 x32

    Hello, I have a mid 2012 MBP with a bootcamp 4.0 partition with 32 bit Windows 7 on it. Everything worked perfectly right from the time of installation except bluetooth. I am trying to connect to my Rocketfish bluetooth headphones. The OSX sides connects flawlessly every time, but Windows will recognize and add the device, but is unable to connect to the device. I have done some research on this problem and most people suggest various ways of installing drivers. However, all the solutions I have tried thus far, in particular the Toshiba bluetooth drivers, do not seem to work for a 32 bit Windows. I was wondering if anyone had a solution for this for a 32 bit version?

    Iamtheone wrote:
    thank you Kay. I have installed the new drivers properly. My audio problem is fixed, however I am still getting 3.9 hours of battery life using windows, while on the mac os, I can get close to 7. Can anyone tell me anything I can do to fix this or do I have to wait for the compatible update that apple will release soon?
    thanks
    Different software can produce very different charge life times, Iamtheone. It may simply relate to different demands placed on processor and HD use by the software you are using under bootcamp when compared to the software being used under OSX. Perhaps it is even simply a measure of the different operating efficiency (power wise) of Windows and OSX 10.6?
    What software are you typically using when running bootcamp?

  • Windows 64Bit Itunes Error : "THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE WINDOWS INSTALLER PACKAGE. A PROGRAM REQUIRED FOR THIS INSTALL TO COMPLETE COULD NOT BE RUN CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT PERSONNEL OR PACKAGE VENDOR."

    I have a brand new HP laptop windows 64bit that is having issues installing Itunes 10.6.3. Whenever attempting to install, I get the error message : "THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE WINDOWS INSTALLER PACKAGE. A PROGRAM REQUIRED FOR THIS INSTALL TO COMPLETE COULD NOT BE RUN CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT PERSONNEL OR PACKAGE VENDOR." I thought this was an issue with the new version, and attempted to retrieve/install older versions of Itunes and same issue occurs. I have tried other forums and resolution tips from : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3551 and nothing still. It appears that apple installs bonjour and nothing else. I have tried extracting the itunes package and installing the executables seperately, but everytime the error stil arises. I cannot repair the apple software update as it cannot install from the error mentioned above. Looking through the logs, it shows error : 1721, problem with windows installer package.Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try?

    There are so many different error and problems peopl are having.

  • Why isn't itunes 11.1.3 installing on my new VAIO laptop with windows 8.1 (64 bit)?

    I am trying to install itunes on my new VAIO laptop 64 bit with Windows 8.1 operating system. At the end of the installation, as soon as itunes is trying to open, an error message comes up, saying "an error has caused the program to stop running." I tried the compatibility troubleshoot, it says "incompatible program". Does that mean, even latest version of itunes can not run on windows 8.1? If there is any solution, please advise. By the way, I have tried to run it on compatibility mode for windows 7 , windows vista etc, no luck.  Thank you.
