Is it possible in any way to run this software on a MacPro?

Hello- This is my first post, I have been a mac user for 20 years... I am an Industrial Designer (Art Center, Summer 90, High Honors), and I have been running AliasStudio software on an SGI Unix machine for 8 years now. It's time to upgrade (way over time, actually), and I see that Alias has been bought by Autodesk, and they have bundled the AutoStudio programs that I use into a PC capable software package - see link to save time in description - http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=8412490 that runs about 5k....I bought the same thing in 97 for 75k, and it has paid for itself many times over.
Anyways, I never liked the unix system, because I don't have time or inclination to screw around with code, like I said, mac user for 20 years faithfully (outside of this application). Given that the MacPro can run the stinky Windows XP, what is the group's thoughts, can it run this software? I realize I am intruding on your free time looking up the hardware requirements from my link, I wish there was a simple 'Ask A Question in Order to Avoid Buying A PC' link on the Apple site, but there is not.....Thanks in advance, I'd really rather spend 5-6K on a killer Apple. -Dave

Yup it will run on the Mac Pro under bootcamp no problems. But that means that effectively you wont be using a mac, you'll be using windows and only windows - just on machine that looks like apple. You can reboot into mac osx, but you wont be able to use AutoStudio and then cmd+tab to your apple mail, or bring up your dashboard or whatever. Its either windows or mac at any given time (using bootcamp you reboot to switch os). If thats ok with you then no problems....
There are options (like parallels or crossover) where you can run windows applications from within mac os (so you can cmd+tab between your windows app and mac apps) - but the graphics performance is VERY comprimised, and i'm pretty sure that AutoStudio will not work under those conditions.
I'm currently using Autodesk 3DSMax on my mac under bootcamp and it works perfectly. I also use parallels on mac os for windows applications that dont need graphics performance and everything is cool. 3DSMax performance under parallels, needless to say, is totally useless.

  • Is there any way to run Classic on an Intel mini running Tiger?

    Due to space limitations, I'm having to retire my old faithful Powermac 6500. It's hard to believe that it's 10 years old. It's running OS8.6, and can run OS9 even though it seems slow and memory intensive.
    Is there any way to run Classic mode on my Intel Core Duo mini? It's hardly a matter of life and death, but I still have several older Mac-based games like Railroad Tycoon II and Myst that I enjoy, and they won't run on the newer mini.
    If space wasn't a problem, I would keep the old machine running just to play games, but it's not possible now.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    -Bill

    The only way is to install (free) emulator programs such as BasiliskII or SheepShaver.
    I have both installed, though I only use them to run older programs to rescue old data from obsolete formats.
    Installing and configuring them is not trivial, unfortunately.
    Links here:
    http://basilisk.cebix.net/
    http://gwenole.beauchesne.info/projects/sheepshaver/
    I don't know if either is suitable for the kind of games you want to play. Graphics is typically where emulators fall behind. But again, I have no experience with those games.

  • Is there any way to run a report from database?

    Is there any way to run a report from database using trigger?
    A report needs to be printed out when a new row is inserted into a table.

    If you are using the Reports Server it is possible to start a report from a trigger by using the UTL_HTTP package (in the sys schema) to call the report URL. This should work with DESTINATION=PRINTER.
    Hope this helps.

  • Hi at the moment my ipod is on manual sync mode. Is there any way of changing this to auto-sync without losing the music on my ipod or library? Possibly more importantly is there a way I can transfer the ratings from my ipod onto my i-tunes?

    This is so I can delete music from my ipod knowing its rated on my i-tunes so I can then see later if I want to re-add it based on its rating
    Thanks

    Is it possible to copy a DVD into iTunes and then upload it to my iPad? Is there any way of doing this?

    Sure, just use Handbrake to encode the DVD movie into a format that is playable on iTunes and on your iPad:

  • HT1766 When I have iCloud Backup ON, the battery runs down on my iphone really quickly.  Is there any way of avoiding this ?  Thanks

    When I have iCloud Backup ON, the battery runs down on my iphone really really quickly.  Is there any way of avoiding this.  I want to backup my iphone but don't want to be recharging all day.  Many thanks

    Are you sure the iCloud backup is causing this?  Unless you initiate an iCloud backup manually, it will only back up once per day when the phone is connected to your charger and wi-fi and has the screen locked.  It shouldn't otherwise be consuming any power.

  • I running on mountain Lion but every time i enter full screen, the widgets from my dashboard appears. Any way to fix this?

    it would appear something like this, for itunes, quicktime play and so on and so forth. Any way to fix this problem?

    Have you tried going to System Preferences/Desktop & Screensaver/Screensaver, and choose "Start after Never"? That turns off the screensaver. Then, under System Preferences/Desktop & Screensaver/Desktop, choose the image you want. You can vary the sleep by playing around with System Preferences/Energy Saver, and playing around with your preferences.

    Hello David.
    Go into ''Tools > Options > General > Startup:When Firefox starts:'' and configure it as you want (probably to show your home page?). This is the very first option that appears in the options screen, but I understand that it may not be very easy to find. Firefox 4 will not include any redesign to the options screen (except possibly it appearing in a tab, rather than in a popup), but you may interested to know that there are plans to redesign the options screen for versions after Firefox 4, to make it easier to use. If you want to know more about the redesign, just ask.
    Anyway, if that doesn't help (it probably does, but just in case), it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.

    Is there any way of changing this preference so that new messages are displayed at the top of the thread.
    This is is more logical. You need to see new message in thread directly, rather than scanning to end of thread to see what is there.

    No it is not possible. The newest message is attached to the message it is in reply to.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

    My MacBook Pro is not recognizing my external hard drive.  The hard drive is listed in disk utilities but an icon does not pop up and I cannot access the data.  Is there any way to resolve this?

    WE know Disk Warrior is more reliable, hence more useful, and should be in any disk mechanics toolchest.
    For the record, I don't know anything of the kind. I have yet to see evidence that Disk Warrior is useful at all.
    What I do know is that you seem to take every opportunity you get to promote it in these forums. Do you work for Alsoft?
    Let me be a little more explicit. My opinion is that Disk Warrior is a waste of money if one has backups. If a journaled HFS directory is so badly corrupted that it can't be repaired by Disk Utility, then the volume should be reformatted and restored from backup, which has the same effect as running DW, but is probably faster and doesn't cost $99.
