If I upgrade to Lion what will happen to my VMware Fusion & content?

Possibly nothing
Make a backup before upgrading.

Hi Mary, the other so called "Features" of iClound will not work for like Syncing, but eMail will.
MobileMe & dot Mac will still work last I heard.
iCloud Mail setup, even in 10.4/10.5…
Don't delete your old account yet. Just setup a new one in Mail>Preferences>Accounts, little plus icon. Choose IMAP as account type, not ,mac or MobileMe.

No reason to be embarassed. You are not alone.
You will need an external drive. If you have a Time Machine drive without enough disk space you can create the clone there however it's advised that you keep your Time Machine and clone on separate drives. If the drive dies you loose both types of backup.
Download and install the clone software. Everyone has their favorite. These are the two most common applications used. I prefer SuperDuper because of it's simplicity in setting up. It's also free for the first clone where with CCC you have to give a Credit Card then cancel if you do not want to keep.
SuperDuper! http://www.shirt-pocket.com/

Select your drive in the To popup. Click on Copy Now. That's it.
Yes, it really is that simple....

What will happen if I install Lion on my macbook pro core duo??

What will happen if I install Lion on my macbook pro core duo? I have one of the first Intel MacBook Pro's with a Core Duo processer, I'm having hard drive problems so want to format it and re-install my OS. I can't find my Snow Leopard disk so the easiest thing to do would be to download Lion but I have been told that my MacBook needs to have a Core 2 Duo processer so I just wondered if anyone else has tried Lion on a MacBook like mine??

Nothing.
Lion will not run on a core duo, it needs a core 2 duo as a minimum
see Technical Specifications
Also you will need SL running to access the App Store to download Lion. So In a number of ways this won;t work.

It will continue to operate, play music and so on. It just will not be able to update apps that rely on later iOS versions.

What will happen if skip upgrading iPhone 3G & then restore to iPhone 4?

Character limit in the subject line made it hard to get my point across, so I'll expound...
I've got an iPhone 3G running iOS 3.1.3, and also have my reservation in to get the iPhone 4 on Thursday. In light of lots of people talking about performance troubles with iOS 4.0 on the iPhone 3G, I'm thinking I might skip the upgrade.
Normally, when I've gotten new iPhones, I do a full backup right before I go to the Apple Store, and then when I get home I plug the new phone in and let it restore all of my data. But, what will happen when I plug in my iPhone 4 if my 3G backup has everything coming from a 3.1.3 image? Is it going to end up "downgrading" my iPhone 4 to iOS 3.1.3, forcing me to then run an OS upgrade? Is the restore going to outright fail?
Wondering if I don't just need to bite the bullet and upgrade my iPhone 3G to make Thursday that much easier...

It will work, It will use the apps and data from the old backup, but will not change the operating system version.

Acer Predator running win 8.1 which I wish to upgrade to win 10. What will happen to recovery discs?

I have a two year old Acer Predator with Win 8.1 installed. I wish to upgrade to Win 10 but I'm concerned about what will happen if I get a hard drive failure at some point. Will I need to pay for another set of recovery discs? Or will I have to install Win 8 from the discs I already have, then upgrade to 8.1, then to Win 10?

if your HDD will die, you can use your windows 8 recovery disk and then upgrade to 10 without passing by 8.1but.....i can suggest an easy way. You can create a system image just after upgrading to windows 10, having your drivers updated to windows 10 version too and check that your system is stable. after that, with windows tool you can create that system image on DVD or external HDD and use it to re-install your windows 10 copy as you just upgraded. http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-create-a-system-image-in-windows-10/ to use a windows system image, you need a bootable windows 10 installation media but this is easy to have it from microsoft:http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10download the .iso file and burn it on a DVD. so....at the end, you will boot from the DVD and choose to repair your PC and selecting to load the system image.

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

Lion will run on most Intel machines. It will not run on the following machines:
MacBook Pro (sold before October 2006)
MacBook (sold before November 2006)
Mac Mini (sold before August 2007)
iMac (sold before September 2006)
It requires an Intel Core 2 Duo (or later CPU). Those machines listed above were all Intel Core Duo machines and with the exception of one of the Mac Minis, an Intel Core Solo. So we're talking 4+ year old machines. I have not tested Lion on a machine with anything less than 2GB of RAM.
Wikipedia has a pretty good public summation of what's known so far and it's quite accurate - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Lion
The biggest thing of note so far is that you cannot install/run Rosetta. Which maybe problematic for some users.

If I upgrade from iMovie08 to iMovie 11 what will happen to my already existing iMovie projects?

I need to create a final prodcut for a grad school class and I would like to use some of the features on iMovie 11. I, however, already have begun creating some video clips. I want to know what will happen to my existing projects that are not yet published when I upgrade from iMovie08 to iMovie11. Thanks!

iM11 doesn't hurt your older projects, nor events.
keep in mind: iM11 Projects are not compatible with iM09

What will happen if I upgrade my icloud storage?

I have a 16gb ipad that I have for already a year and 3 months in IOS 7.1.0 . Since my ipad is only 16gb, I already used a lot of storage and it's only 1.2 gb left. I maintain my storage like that for about a month already but I'm afraid that it will all be used up in no time because my family always go on trips which means we have to take pictures. But, I was looking around in the settings and I saw an icloud storage plan. I'm really convinced to upgrading my icloud. But, what will happen if I upgrade my icloud storage? Will my storage increase? Or something else will happen

Upgrading icloud storage WILL not upgrade storage on ipad. Buying another ipad of larger size will.

What will happen if i upgrade ram to 4GB which is more than system spec....

Hi,
I have a macbook with following specs:
core 2 Duo
1 Gb stock ram 667MHZ DDR2
Model No: A1181
Part No: MB061X/A
i have found that my macbook only support total of 2GB memory with 1GB memory at each module. i was just wandering what will happen if i put 4GB (2 x 2GB sticks) memory kit in my macbook.
At some forums i have found that it may support upto 3 or 3.3GB memory but will putting extra memory have any kind of negative effect ???
and does any one know what is the supported memory limit of my macbook ???
Cheers,
Sohaib

got 1 more question.... If i'll put 2 x 2GB RAM then still i'll be utilizing the dual channel ??? though only 3GB memory is being used by the system....
I'll start by saying that I've read Intel's chipset datasheets, including their sections on memory controllers, dual-channel, memory speeds, etc. With Intel's memory controller chipsets, they don't access two modules in parallel as an effectively doubled-width data bus. They still only perform read/writes data one module at a time. What you might get with "dual channel" operation is that it can get a small head-start when "ping-ponging" from one module to the other. It anticipates when it will be over, and will start off the other module to get a head start on the latency before data is available. Overall the advantage is small. In fact, Intel does do this when the memory modules aren't even matched for size - they call this "Dual Channel Asymmetric". It's supposed to perform dual-channel up to the high address of the smaller module. If you match sizes (doesn't even have to be identical modules or even speeds) Intel calls this "Dual Channel Interleaved", with the advantage throughout the entire address range.
For your application, some benchmarks suggest a small increase in graphics performance. However - having more memory almost always wins out over trying to achieve "dual channel". Check these tests:

n if RAM meets the specs of my macbook it won't panic kernel ???
Not likely although poor quality memory could do that when it reaches marginal conditions (i.e. high heat).

What will happen with my installed softwares?

Hi I am using MacBook Pro with C2D and having latest version of SL. But I have installed lots of software useful for my business including virtual machine and I am using Windows 7 ultimate on it. So I am wondering what will happen if I upgrade this to Lion? Do I need to install everything again or it will be as it is like on my snow leopard?

I don't know about VMware, but I can tell you that when I opened Windows XP the first time in Parallels after upgrading to Lion, I had to re-setup the virtual machine. Other than this, no problems. CS3 and older WILL NOT run in Lion, but CS4 and newer run without problems.
Go to About this Mac > applications, and here you can see which of your applications are PowerPC, thus not compatible with Lion.
Cheers
