HT5639 At present I have Windows programs installed using parallels 7. I now wish to delete all Windows based programs and revert the hard drive back to its original state ie single partition. How do I go about it??

At present I have windows based programs installed using parallels 7 on my Imac. I now wish to delete all the Windows programs etc and revert the Hard Drive to its original setting i.e single partition. How do I go about it??

It's not clear if you installed Windows in a virtual machine or you installed Windows in Boot Camp but you run it in Parallels.
If you installed Windows in Boot Camp, open "Boot Camp Assistant" (it's in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps to restore your hard disk into one volume. If you installed Windows on a virtual machine, just open Parallels and delete the virtual machine where you have installed Windows

How can i run a windows based program on mac book pro

Can I run a windows based program on mac book pro mountain lion 10.8.4

You can use bootcamp to install windows natively on the hard drive. You then choose which OS you wish to use at startup - OS X or Windows.
You can also install Windows in a virtual machine - Parallels or VMWare Fusion - and run it simultaneously with OS X (a virtual machine is just a PC emulated in software, and you install and run windows in the emulated machine hardware).

Java 7 to remote in a windows based program

I am running OS X 10.9.3. I installed Java 7 yesterday to set up my remote access to a windows based program at my work. I cannot access all of my work because one program says I need to have Java 1.6.0_31 but I installed Java 7. I'm not sure if I was given that option to install that Java version on my OS version

what program used to gain remote access ?

Trying to make Macs compatible with windows-based programs.

We have a Mac shop and are trying to set it up to run windows-based programs. I think I'm supposed to use Terminal Services for this but I don't know much about Terminal Server. Could anyone point me in the right direction for setting up our Mac machines to run windows software?

Windows software cannot run natively on a Mac OS X.
If you have a Windows server running Terminal Services, then on the Mac side you'll need the Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection client.
This will allow you to open up a Windows Terminal Services session on your Mac.
If you are not running a Terminal Server of some sort, and you wish to run Windows apps directly on the Mac... then you'll need Microsoft VirtualPC installed and configured on each Mac.

AIM and other "windows based" programs

Hey,
I am getting a new macbook for christmas and I am very excited about this. My question for you guys is, how many windows based programs can you run on macbook? Such as AIM and a few games based on windows ? Thanks in advance

Hey,
how many windows based programs can you run on
macbook?
The answer is either none or all. The Mac OS does not run any Windows programs. However, you can install Windows on your MacBook and then you can run all Windows programs. The downside to doing this is that your MacBook then becomes a virus ridden Windows machine!

I am working on a windows based program thru Chrome on my Mac. It asked me to cont/alt/delete - how do I get the Mac to respond?

I am working on a windows based program thru chrome on my mac - how do I control/alt/delete on the mac?

Control key - Alt (also known as the Option key) and Delete key. However remember Chrome is not an Apple product so if that doesn't work you also might want to seek help on a Google forum that supports Chrome.

I Mini with an i7 processor. I would like to use Boot Camp to install windows based CAD software on my MAC. Would it be better to use a plugin external hard drive to load my software on and if so what hard drive would you recommend?

Thank you for your quick response. I can then use a ZIP drive for data storage. I want to keep as much of my hard drive free of data as possible.

Windows based program on Ipad2.

I really want to buy an Ipad2 but need to run a program on something portable for the next 4 months. This program is for windows based PCs. Should i take it that this is NOT possible on the Ipad???

A Windows based program will not run on the iPad. Only apps available from the App store will run on the iPad.
There are apps that will allow you to access your computer remotely from the iPad if you wanted to do it that way but you can't run Windows or OSX software for that matter on the iPad. The iPad does not run on a a conventional computer operating system.

Installing a Windows Based program

Has anyone ever had a problem loading up a CD that has been created in a Windows environment. Is this a possibility? If not, what other alternatives are there to this situiation.

You can browse through the programs that Crossover supports here:
http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name
Crossover is a program that will let you run some Windows program in OS X. For the programs it supports, it works well. Just as an FYI... in general, you can't just install Windows programs in Apple's operating system, OS X (and visa versa). You may want to contact the company that makes the software you're trying to use and see if they have an OS X version. If you have other Windows programs you are going to want to use, you may want to consider installing a copy of Windows. This way you know you'll still be able to use them. If you do plan to install Windows using Apple's free BootCamp, just be sure to follow the instructions. With BootCamp, you have the option to either start your computer using OS X or Windows. Parallels, the program I mentioned earlier, will allow you to run Windows from within OS X (so you don't have to restart your computer to go between the two). I typically recommend if you have an immediate need to use Windows that you install it via BootCamp. If you find that you need to go into Windows quite a bit and don't want to keep restarting your computer to go back and forth, then you can install Parallels. Since Parallels will allow you to use the copy of Windows that you installed with BootCamp, there is no need to reinstall Windows again and you don't have to worry about re-activating it.
If you want to let us know what the specific program is, perhaps we can give you some more specific guidance.

Is there a way to install Windows (with programs) on an external drive and run it from the Pro?

I have a 1TB Seagate Goflex that I am using to backup the Mac, but I want to partition it and run Windows and Windows Apps from it, rather than risk my HDD. Does anyone have any experience doing that or have any ideas on how it might be done? I am willing to risk the Seagate external drive, but not the laptop.

Bob,
you could put a virtualizer such as VirtualBox or Parallels Desktop on the external drive, and install Windows and Windows apps in the virtualizer.

Installing windows based drivers

i'm one of the unlucky ones who has issues when installing gfx drivers on my imac for windows. my screen goes black when i do it through the dvd, so i had to update them manually. my question, is this:
since i don't have any of the drivers installed from the DVD, i can't use basic functions such as the number pad, eject button on keyboard, etc. is there a way i can manually download these drivers and install them one by one? i want to avoid having my gfx mess up and not be able to use windows (again). currently running leopard.

If you are using Bootcamp, burn the drivers CD through Bootcamp on the Mac end. When you boot back up in windows pop in the CD you just burned, it will install a most if not all the drivers you will need.
