Is it possible to run SAS statistical software on Mac computers?

Is it possible to run SAS statistical software on Mac computers? I am looking to buy a Mac but I heard taht they had problems running SAS. Does anyone have experience running this statistical software on their computer?

I am not a SAS user but from what I found on various web sites, the latest Mac native version of SAS is version 6 (which goes back to 1999-2000...).
So if you want to use SAS on a current Mac, it will probably have to be a Windows version running on the Mac either using Apple's Bootcamp or Parallels Desktop for Mac virtualization application.

  • Is it possible to run my Labview software in Windows 7

    Hi there,
    I currently use Labview 8.2.1 and Labview DSC 8.2.1.
    But within a short time I want to switch from Windows XP to Windows 7.
    My question now is:
    Is it possible to switch to Windows 7 without any problems?
    Will the Labview software still run under Windows 7 without problems, or do I have to download new drivers or other software?
    I hope to get a reaction soon.

    Hi Cheese,
    Official LabVIEW support/compatibility with Windows 7 is explained under the following articles.
    National Instruments Product Compatibility for Microsoft Windows 7
    Windows Version Compatibility with LabVIEW 
    LabVIEW Module and Toolkit Compatibility Information 
    On the forums, people seemed to have mixed reviews about older versions of LabVIEW with newer versions of Windows 7. Another piece of food for thought is Windows 7 (some versions) contain a "Windows XP Mode", which MAY allow you to run this version of LabVIEW in 7 however as the above articles show this is not the supported version. Essentially the XP mode allows virtualisation of XP OS on Windows 7. I've not personally tried it with this version of LabVIEW, but it's just an idea!
    Windows Virtual PC
    Upgrading to the latest version of LabVIEW will work and is fully supported.
    Hope this may help

  • Trying to run windows compatible software on mac

    Love my new mac. Have no desire to go back to windows or microsoft ever again. That said my daughter has one drawing program that software is listed as compatible with windows only (from fisher price) that she loved before our last computer died. Is there any hope or downloads I can use in order to get this up on my mac? It's really the only windows related thing I need, I don't want to have to purchase XP and get it on this as well for one thing, was hoping by now there was some sort of download that would allow software to be played on apple.

    Try Crossover before you buy it. They have a great idea. The problem is there aren't a lot of programs it works with easily. I usually use VMWare Fusion and windows xp pro. That works good for most things.
    If your daughter wants a nice drawing program there are some good ones for Macs. Try SeaShore or PaintBrush. They are both good and fairly simple to use. The price is right also:->

  • Run Windows 8.1 on Mac Air 100%?  How to update Mac Firmware?

    I know it's possible to run Windows 100% on my Mac through BootCamp (I have small SSD hard drive so it is one or other).  My question is if I install Mavericks on a USB thumb drive will I still receive firmware updates from Apple via keeping the USB updated?  Or, will those firmware updates just stay on USB?
    Thanks.

    What a question. Theoretically, if you keep OS X Mavericks installed in a USB drive and it is updated, you will be able to receive firmware updates and to get them installed in your Mac.
    To install firmware updates in your Mac, OS X copies the firmware to the EFI partition (a small partition at the start of the drive), and they are installed the next time your Mac starts up. This means that your USB drive with OS X Mavericks must be formatted in "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" and have a GUID partition table. With this, all firmware updates will be installed to your computer.

  • Can I run Excel 2007 on a Mac?

    Can anyone tell me if it's possible to run Excel 2007 on a Mac? I have Excel 2008 but I'm preparing for an exam which requires me to use Excel 2007.

    No.
    There is a 2004 and 2008 version for OS X but no 2007 version for Mac.

    I have a PPC based software ... Is it possible to run it in intel based?? I have a iMAC OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  Thanks

    Their answer was this ...
    The version for GNX4 MACOSX is only for PPC based Mac. There is no Intel version as the product was discontinued before Intel based MAC came out.
    I guess I should give up, hehehe...
    Thanks

  • Is it possible to run Tiger in Snow Leopard using Parallels?

    Hey All,
    Anyone know if it is possible to run Tiger in Snow Leopard using Parallels?
    I am using SPSS 16 and it is not compatible with snow leopard. A temporary fix right now if I partitioned my hard drive and installed Leopard on some extra space to run SPSS. This is kind of annoying because I only need Leopard to use SPSS. I would rather emulate it so I can listen to iTunes and check my email in SL.
    What about Panther? I think I even have a copy of Panther to install in Parallels?
    I read somewhere that the EULA restricts OS X from being emulated, which seems odd for Mac users who need to test or use old software. I understand though about emulating OS X on windows machine though. I guess they need to blow off the whole foot than just cut off one toe.
    Thanks for the thoughts!

    From what I can tell, doing this would be, at best, of dubious legality.
    Even so, the popular opinion seems to be that it would take some degree of hacking to pull off a virtual machine running OS X. I think that unless you are willing and able to undertake such a task, your best bet is to stick with a partition running an old version or wait for SPSS to be updated for Snow Leopard.
    Although...... I have Parallels 4 (current version is 5) and it has an option, when setting up a new Virtual Machine, to install Mac OS X server (see image linked below). Perhaps if you could get a copy of the server edition of the OS you would have more success?

  • I want to upgrade the software (currently I have Mac OS X 10.6.4) but when the mac is downloading the new version i get an error message and is not possible get the most updated software: Mac OS X 10.6.8 or either the most recent itunes why?!?!?!

    Then you either have a network problem or a hardware problem or a corrupted hard drive. You might try:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    You can also try downloading from another computer on a different network connection.

  • Is it possible to run LabVIEW 7.1 and 8.5 under the same Windows installation?

    We have an older version of LabVIEW (7.1) which includes functionality for Event Notifications and the base version of LV8.3, which does not seem to contain this functionality. 
    Is it possible to run both of these from the same Windows Installation?  If not I plan to create a new partition and a new Windows installation just to accomodate the two of them.

    Something else to consider is windows compatibility. If you are running LabVIEW on Vista, I would highly discourage installation of Lv 7.1 and 8.5 on the same machine (even if they were different partitions), since there are some significant issues in terms harware compatibility.I am running windows 7.1 and 8.2.1 on a test station with no problems, but the OS is Win XP. My biggest gripe about the dual software system is when a v 7.1 files is opened up by 8.2.1. There is not a system to prevent it from happening, and once we accidentally save a 7.1 app in 8.2,1, going back to 7.1 is a big headache.  

  • Is there a possibility to run tRFC entries alone in Separate application server

    Please let me know if there is a possibility to run tRFC entries alone in separate application server.
    If yes , kindly let me know how it can be tracked and separated to server as we have immediate idocs also which will run via tRFC.
    Thank you !!

    Hi,
    Thank you for your interesst.
    This internet button key is one of buttons located above the keyboard near the power button. What I have achieved to this moment was to stop it functionality in the system by clearing the entries in the fields Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey\17\ShellExecute and entry
    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey\7\Association that was http
    After these changes in registry the behavior of the button was suppressed, the Firefox stopped to start unexpectedly all the time – so in system it works. But the problem is still when I have opened Firefox. Every time when you want to surf in internet – the homepage is activated also unexpectedly. I wrote this post with intention to ask if there is a possibility to switch off the functionality of this quick launch button in Firefox. Because I assume Firefox overrides the system setup – this I have made in registry. I tried with some option changes in about:config but without success. And I know that for older versions of firefox was some option in about:config do disable_quick launch button. But in 10.0.2 I couldn't locate it.
    Thank you
    Regards

  • I want to maintain Safari 10.6.8 on my computer and then install Maverick on a separate internal drive so I can run new FCPX software and maintain the older OS for my older software versions.  Can you tell me how please?

    I want to maintain Safari 10.6.8 on my computer and then install Maverick on a separate internal drive so I can run new FCPX software and maintain the older OS for my older software versions.  Can you tell me how please?
    I see an upgrade path from Safari but don't want to change that and would like to be able boot from Maverick when needed.
    Is this possible and how?
    Thank you!

    On the Apple site I see an upgrade path but not from scratch.  I will use my current systems and then it place a complete install of Maverick on the other drive to boot from?
    Thank you!

  • I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?

    I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel? Is Parallel in fact the best way to go?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
