Is this Possible?
Is it possible instead of using Boot Camp to use an external disk to boot Windows Vista or can you only use Boot Camp to run Windows on the mac not as a virtual machine?

Thanks for the guide. However, what’s the use of disconnecting the internal hdd?

The general wisdom around was that the Windows installer could become confused if the internal disk was also connected. I didn’t attempt the procedure without removing the internal drive, for fear of corrupting my OSX install. If anyone would like to attempt this procedure without removing the internal that would be great. Post your experience here and I’ll update the guide.

I have two separate itune accounts under two different email accounts and would like to combine them under one account. Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?
If you go to Settings > iTunes & AppStore , you can sign out from your account, and sign in with the one you've used to purchase apps.This will not remove any apps you already have on it.
Then you can go to AppStore and download apps you've purchased (either via "Purchased" button in "Updates", or simply search for them and download them.
That way you can have multiple accounts' apps on your iPad. When updating, you will be prompted for the credentials for account you've purchased given App with. -
I work with a child who has physical disability and cannot move his neck. The ipad needs to be eyelevel in order for him to see it, but he also is not able to raise his hand and would need mouse access... is this possible?
I'm sorry but the iPad does not work with a mouse, there is no cursor on the iPad and the iPad was designed as a touch screen device so a mouse will not work.
I really don't know what to suggest other than this new device, and it might be worth a look. I assume that the child can use his hands for a keyboard.

Unfortunately, I lost by an update all the apps on my iPad 2. Now I can not pull the data from the cloud to my iPad. How is this possible?
If you just installed iCloud does that mean you updated the iOS that's running on your iPad? If so, you'll want to restore all the programs you have from the backup you hopefully made.
Refer to these articles for help.
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software.
If you don't want to use iCloud, simply don't activate it.
You can also download the programs again.
If you live in a country that supports re-downloading apps then you can re-download them. You can refer to this article for more help.

Like I wrote on title, I am getting old and it is not easy to see E-mails, news etc. on a I phone! New I phone will not help me for the size.
If possible, everything without calls, I would like to use I Pad as direct unit, and for calls through I Pad over WIFI all calls. If a call as Skype, I would like
to use the I Pad as a monitor. Is this possible?
I found on a side that there is a product for people for better hearing, which can be put into the ears, using WIFI with I Phone.
If this product could be used also for I Pad as a Phone for hearing, and the I watch or I Pad as Microphone, it will be great for old Mac users.
Is this possible with our system know?
I am using Mac since Classic II! Would like to continue with the newest items with the possibility for old person with bad Eyes or Ears.
Looking forward for a kind answer
with regards
Christian an old Mac user!Definitely No

I have a MacBookPro with OS 10.6.8. It has no updates. This version contains Iphoto 11, version 9.2.3. I would like to upgrade my operating system to 10.9.5 or later. Is this possible and how best to proceed? How will this affect iPhoto?
Thanks, JeffIf you have a mid/late 2007 MBP you can install the latest OSX that is available, on your MBP. Mavericks (10.9) has been replaced by Yosemite (10.10) and is no longer available in the App store.
You choices are Lion (10.7), Mt.Lion (01.8) (both $20) or Yosemite (free). The first two are available from the Apple online web site. Yosemite can be downloaded from the App store.

I just bought my macbook pro and it's charged up to 100% and is still plugged in but now shows the battery at 98%. How is this possible when it's plugged in to the charger and the green light is on?
The system regularly lets the battery drop to about 95% when on the charger, then recharges to 100%. This lets the batery exercise "just a little" all of the time and saves the recharge curcuits from overuse.
Regualr occurence for me.
Also ... you need to let your battery work at least once per month. Let it run down to 40%, but not less if you can at all avoid it. Running thr battery fully dead will shorten the battery life significantly. -
Using one ipod on 2 computers - is this possible?!
Hi guys I would really appreciate it if somebody could help out with this:
I want to buy my girlfriend an 80gb Ipod Classic for xmas and load it with some music using my existing version of itunes (version 7.3.2.6) and then give it to her so that she can use the ipod with the verison of itunes that it comes with or she downloads. *This music will NOT be music purchased from itunes.*
Is this possible? When her friend connects her new nano to my girlfriends pc and tries to use my girlfriends slightly older version of itunes all of the songs are greyed out and not useable.
I do not want to buy the ipod and load it up only to find she can then not use it with her version of itunes.
If anyone is certain about this i'd be greatly appreciative of an answer.
DavidTo change it back to automatically syncing you remove the check mark from "Manually manage songs and videos" and press Apply. If you don't want to use it as file storage device and want it to automatically eject when it is finished updating you also remove the check mark from "enable disk use" (this is checked by default when you set the iPod to update manually. Remember though that if you go back to updating automatically, any songs on the iPod that aren't in iTunes will be removed. You can't "sync" that is automatically update an iPod from multiple libraries or computers: Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows

I Wish to connect my 6 year old Apple 20" Cinema Display to an orignal MacBook Air which does not have a Fire-Wire port. Is this possible? Any advice would be appreciated. I have the Micro-DVI to DVI adapter. Norm
The FireWire cable is just for the FireWire ports on the display. The display will run without it.

I want to buy a Ipod Nano 16gb that says it holds up to 4,000 songs, 16 hours of video, and 14,000 pictures. On my Itunes Library, I have 2,593 songs and it says I have 19.88 gb just of songs. How is this possible? If I buy the Nano, will I not be able to have all my songs on the ipod? The music is my first and only prioarity. I want to be able to have up to at least 3,000 songs, even if that means not having video or pictures. Can someone please help me?

Daniella,
The estimated song capacities, such as 4000 songs in 16 GB, are based on 4 minute songs of 4 MB each, which is what you get at 128 encoding.
Most of us nowadays use well above 128. (For example, the iTunes Store and Amazon MP3 both sell songs only in 256.)
However, you can still make more songs fit! When you sync your iPod, use the option to "convert higher bit rate songs," as pictured. Choose 128. This fits more on the iPod, but does not change the songs in your library. -
Is there a way to have one computer hold both my iTunes account and my husbands iTunes account at the same time. We do not want to log in and out, but want to be able to access both purchases on the same computer (songs, movies, etc). However, we want to keep our accounts seperate for purchases on our devices. Is this possible?

There is no space to store video on my computer. I am am looking at getting 1 terabyte on the cloud in hope i can edit video off of the cloud the same way I can with a hard drive. Is this possible?
Buy another hard drive. They're cheap these days.
In fact, buy a couple of 'em. I recommend a minimum of five internal hard drives.

D: Project, graphic and audio files

i currently have about 6 different groups listed on the iphone in my contact list section and i want to delete the old ones and create a new group for work puposes!
i dont want any apps all i want is something similar to my favourites list but in a group so i can just go into that work group and scroll to the person i need to call and this way seperating my personal and work contacts.
because i do alot of calls from my car i dont want to have to search my contact lists to find the right person i just want them all in a simple folder.
is this possible because if i already have groups on my iphone i should be able to delete the old ones and create a new one?Deleting groups on the phone and creating new ones is not supported with iOS4, you'll have to do that on your computer and sync again.
Let's see if they changed that in iOS5 when it is released. -
