Installing JDK 5.0 in MAC
Hi, im trying to install jdk 5 in my mac. i downloaded the file and everything, i supposely installed it, even open the unzip the src file, but when i go to my terminal to check my java version, still tells me 1.4... im probably installing it wrong, or maybe i have to put it in some path. please help. thanks
If you are working with a version of the Mac that is prior to X, you will be restricted to 1.1 or possibly 1.2 (can't remember) of the JRE and JDK..
So I'm assuming you are working with Mac OS X...
Apple provides it's own implementation of the JRE and JDK for Mac OS X. Currently, the highest available version of Java for the Mac X is 1.4.2
http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/java/
When Java 5 becomes available you will most likely want to obtain it via Software Updates.
http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/softwareupdates.html
Here is an article on the Sun site about development for Mac OS X

And a link to a site about Java on the Apple Developer Connection site

I would like to install logic on my new mac book but there is no dvd drive. I tried to downlaod the upgrade but that didn't work. How do I download it for the first time?
Thanks!You can only use the App Store version to reinstall on your new Mac if you bought Logic via the App Store in the first place.... and then it will appear under the Purchases tab in the Mac App Store App so long as you are signed in using the same Apple ID you used to purchase Logic via the App store in the first place.
If you bought the DVD edition of Logic Studio then you must initially install using those original DVDs to begin with and then update to the latest version of your version of Logic via software updates.
No DVD drive? Buy an external one.. Amazon do a very cheap basic one that works well..
or...
Use Remote Disk if you still have your older Mac which has a built in DVD drive...

I had the geek squad from bestbuy supposedly install iphoto 11 on my mac but it is not there and when i try to download it it say the app has been download by another user on this machine. What do i need to do get get this app on my system? If they could not do it right the first time I do not have much faith in their advice.
Assuming you've done a system wide search for it including the Applications folder and it's not there......
I think you will need to address this with them - did you pay them for the application? Or was your purchase price to include it? And the question(s) to ask them:
If the app store states that it has been downloaded, ask them where it is and which Apple ID they used. (the store keeps track of Apple IDs and machine IDs on everything you download).
I have absolutely no faith in their advice; however, in this case, it's not so much technical advice, but an answer to your questions: you paid for something and it appears not to be there. -

I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). The program takes only 550 MB. Any ideas why?
Thanks for the clarification on the terms. I consider myself proficent at my computer, but not exactly in its inner-workings! I have 8 GB of memory installed.
I am still confused as to why I do not have any space for the program. This is the exact error message I get: "There is not enough free space on Macintosh HD disk. The Print Shop 2 application requires about 550 MB to be installed. Free some disk space and try again."
Thank you again for your help. -
for some reason osx mountain lion has disappeared from my purchases and now when i want to install mountain lion on another mac with the same apple id it wants to charge me for the program even though i have already purchased it. what do i do?
Open the Mac App Store on the other Mac and in the Quick Links sign into your account. See if the Mountain Lion purchase is among hidden apps in the iCloud area of your account info.

I have Macbook Pro 13" mid 20012. How to install Windows 8 onto the mac using DVD? 10.8.3
the title says it all.
i have windows 8 DVD and i would like to have a clear instructions on how to install windows 8. I dont understand the need for USBWelcome to the Apple Support Communities
You need a USB drive to install the Windows support software. It contains all the drivers that your MacBook Pro needs, and you will have to install them after finishing the Windows installation. If you don't install them, a lot of things won't work: the wireless card, the sound card, the brightness, the trackpad gestures... Apart from that, you don't need it for anything else.
Apple has released the official steps to install Windows 8 on a Mac, so if you want, print this PDF > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.8.pdf -
Hiya, i am new to the latest version of creative cloud. Wonder if i can install creative cloud in both mac and PC? And up to how many computers can i install the creative cloud? If I am going to graduate in a few months time, can I still use student discount to purchase the one year package and pay it off in one go? Thanks! !
Sure , you can install on both Mac as well as PC .
Max activation allowed = 2 computers.
Student discounted price will be valid for one year.
Later you can purchase with different Adobe ID , with valid proof of eligibility .
Once you had purchased yearly prepaid subscription , it will not expire for another one whole year , whether you are still student or finished graduation. It will expire after year. -

Hi.
You simply can't. Snow Leopard is compiled in Intel binary only.
Good Luck. -
Can I install more memory on a mac mini
Can I install more memory on a mac mini?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. You can upgrade the RAM always that you do not have a Late 2014 Mac mini (I am not sure that you can install more RAM, and if you can, it will void the warranty), and you can purchase more RAM at OWC or Crucial.
See -> Mac mini: How to remove or install memory - Apple Support -
Can't install purchased app on another mac
Attempting to mgirate from Snow Leopard to Lion. Need to install purchased applications from Mac App Store on the Lion partition. Signed in using same apple id as what I purchased the app with. According to the MAS help, you should be able to find the app in the store and click buy or free but the button shows "Installed". Also shows "Installed" in the Purchases tab. I can hide and unhide apps but can't redownload or reinstall an app I purchased.
I thought I read somewhere to hold down options key when selecting Purchases tab and that would allow you to select install but that didn't work either.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!Thank you for your input.
When I installed Lion, it required me to enter my apple id and password which then verifies I purchased lion and am authorized to install it.
As soon as Lion (10.7.2) is done installing, I see that the mac app store shows I have updates with red badge even though I haven't signed into the store. It knows what apps I've previously installed and thinks those are installed in my clean fresh Lion installation.
There appears to be no way to redownload a purchased app that was previously installed. I can't believe I'm the first person finding this problem?!?!
I opened a case with Apple, spoke with a technician and he tried to remove file from Library but that didn't help. He had me create a test admin account and that had the problem too.
In MAS, I logged into a different apple id and it correctly showed no purchases but still showed updates available. Also showed apps installed that are not.
Apple technician asked me to reinstall Lion. I erased the partition and installed Lion again. Exact same behavior.
This is a tough one...
