IMAC compatability with MS Vista

Does anyone know if the new MS Vista operating system will be able to run on iMAC machines? I bought my iMAC 2 weeks ago, and though I want to dual boot with Windows XP, I don't want install it if Vista will work.
iMAC 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

Or not wait and see, it is really YOUR choice.
Go to the search bar and type in the words "Vista iMac" (without the italics, of course). You will get over 500 posts relating to the subject. Somebody out there has tried it. Hope this helps.
On another note, what's with some folks in here being so dang politically correct and all with regards to Beta products? Of COURSE Apple won't support Vista while it's in Beta, but that doesn't mean that people won't or can't try it. Stop trying to kill the messenger, and point them in the right direction, for crying out loud.
If loyal Apple fans didn't have a long history of being willing to be on the bleeding edge, or at least leading edge, of technology then I'd be typing this on an Apple IIc. Get over it and help people find the answers they are looking for, OK?

  • How do I download an older version of PS that is compatable with Windows Vista

    I need a version of Photshop that is compatable with windows Vista this is the message that pops up You are running an operating system that Photoshop no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements for a full list of supported platforms.

    I believe CS6 will run on vista but your Display Adapter GPU may no be supported.  So features the require a GPU like 3d will not be available. Older version of Photoshop are no longer marketed so you would need to find an old retail version to get a licence.  Downloads will only work as a trial for 30 Days.  Download Adobe CS5 Free Trials – All Direct Links without Akamai | ProDesignTools
    You also need to be careful when buying old outdated software.  There are many selling software that is not legal copies of Adobe software be warned.

  • Compatibility with Windows Vista Home Basic?

    Does Fireworks work with Windows Vista Home Basic? Will it
    run on my OS?

    I have Vista Home Premium and Fireworks CS3 works fine with
    one exception. The bitmap editing tools are not compatible with
    Aero. Copying an answer I wrote two days ago...
    You can do one of two things. Turn off Aero completely or
    have Vista disable Aero only when Fireworks is running.
    For the latter,
    1) go to where Fireworks is installed, usually
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS3
    2) Right-click on Fireworks.exe and select Properties
    3) Select the the Compatibility tab
    4) Under Compatability mode label, select the checkbox for
    Run this program in compatability mode for: and select Windows XP
    (Service Pack 2) from the drop down box.
    5) Under the Settings label, check Disable desktop
    composition
    6) Click OK.
    Now, when you start up Fireworks, your system will flicker as
    Aero is disabled, but your bitmap tools will work. When you close
    Fireworks, your system will flicker as Aero returns.

    this thread
    The post on 09/13/2008 by lallsopp claims that desktop
    composition does not need to be disabled, but I find that my bitmap
    tools do not work properly unless I do. You can try it both ways
    and see what works for you.

  • Will airport express be compatable with windows vista

    will airport express be compatable with windows vista

    vista will not be compatable because I do not have the capability in vista to download AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Windows, which is a requirement for the ethernet connection to the Airport Express.  Is that correct?
    No, sorry for the confusion.
    You would need 5.6.1 on the PC only if you intend to use that to initially setup and configure the Express.  I understand that you will be using the Mac to setup the Express, correct?
    5.6.1 is not needed if all the Vista machine will be doing is connecting using Ethernet or wireless to the network. You don't have to install anything on the Vista machine if all it will be doing is connecting to the Express.

  • Compatibility with Windows Vista

    Hi,
    On Windows Vista system, when try logging into a repository in MDM Console, get the following error
    Error: u201CServer is no longer respondingu201D
    Same time when we login into a repository in MDM Console on Windows XP, it works fine.
    Luckily Data Manager, Import Manager and Syndicator works fine on Vista.
    Is there some compatibility issues with MDM Console and Windows Vista?
    Please guide,
    Regards,
    Navendu Shirali

    Hi Navendu,
    Me and my team are working on Windows Vista and our MDM Version is 5.5 SP06. There is absolutely no problem of the compatibility of Vista and MDM Console. All 4 GUI s are working fine.
    You better check out some other setting of Console and that of your mounted Server. I dont think Windows Vista might be causing any issues.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • IMac compatibility with a Zyxel DSL modem

    I installed a new Zyxel DSL modem connected to a Time Capsule with an ethernet cable with the TC creating my wireless network.  My iMac connects perfectly with the TC's wireless network, but the moment I switch on the Zyxel model to provide internet access, my iMac gets a beach ball that never stops spinning.  Are there compatibility issues between the Zyxel DSL modems and an iMac, or do I have settings on my iMac or Zyxel modem that causes some sort of conflict that causes my iMac to hang?  I've never had a problem before with my iMac hanging, it's been as solid as the rock of Gibraltar!

    I've used the brand in the past
    routers don't rely on drivers so routers follow the std of ethernet
    I would expect it to be 100% transparent for a computer what router was
    using from
    a mac
    to a
    computer running windows 3.11 from the 90's
    to a windows 8.1 computer
    to a linux computer
    the ethernet tcp/ip packets sendt are the same no matter what device send them

  • Is Flash Player 11.7.700.224 really compatable with Windows Vista 64-bit?

    I ask this question because under System Requirements, Window Vista 64-bit isn't listed.  I've inserted the link for the system requirements below...
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html
    I'm trying to figure why my Flash Player disappears from time to time when I'm watching a clip/video and then my Internet Explorer 9 typically stops working, it closes down, and then it opens up and asks me if I want to restore the browsing session.  I'm thinking that this has to do with having both Internet Explorer 9 32-bit and 64-bit.  I read online that Internet Explorer 9 has both and this is why I'm questioning whether Flash Player 11.7.700.224 might be contributing to this issue or was Window Vista 64-bit left off the system requirements in error?
    Thanks!

    Try using the installers from the links in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550

  • Airport Extreme Compatibility with Windows Vista

    I hope someone can help. I installed airport extreme and all my computers (Mac's and pc's on XP) can connect ok to the internet. The new laptop I just bought with Vista will not work. After two hours of tech support from Apple and then Toshiba, I learned that the router works when no security is selected, but when either available security level is selected, the laptop will recognize the router signal but won't connect to the internet. I downloaded the 7.1 Apple update and did a firmware update to the base station. Any ideas about this? It seems as though the security levels in the Apple router are not recognized by Vista. But I don't see an available fix to download.
    Thanks for any help!

    One possibility is to locate an older wireless access point and configure it in bridge mode and use it only for 802.11g wireless access to the network by the Vista notebook computer.

  • B1DE Installer compatibility with Windows Vista

    Hi All,
    We are developing an add-on for SAP Business One 2005B.
    While testing the add-on on Windows Vista we noticed that the Add-on installer created using the the professional installer of B1DE hangs during installation.
    i.e. - After registering the Add-on in SAP Business One, when we restart SAP Business One, the install routine does start but hangs during the installation process.
    We are using Version 1.2 of B1DE.
    Can some one please help us with this situation.
    Regards,
    Pankaj Mathur

    Hi Pankaj,
    Vista is not currently supported for either the B1DE or SAP Business One. Therefore, even if you could get the add-on to install, you couldn't get support from SAP if you come across any issue.
    I expect SAP will bring out a service pack or a patch for running SBO on Vista and a new version of the B1DE will emerge about the same time. Until then, I'm afraid you'll have to stick to XP.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen
