It is possible to convert an iMac from North America (60hz - 110V) to us it in Europe (50hz - 220V)?

No conversion is necessary. Your iMac will run from 100-240V, all that is needed is a simple plug adapter that you can pick up at any electronics store or even at the airport.

When converting to iMac from windows, hotmail accounts cross messages?

Since I converted to imac from (2) PC's, I installed hotmail on the imac mail program. I have (2) hotmail accounts, and (1) icloud. Now, sending out emails from the imac, the messages sent out in one of the hotmail accounts are replied to and come back on the other hotmail account. ? This doesn't seem to appear to happen on the other PC's that still have the email accounts set up on them. Does anyone have ideas?

If you take one of the edited-on-XP files which can not be edited a 2nd time on > XP, if you edit it on the Mac and save it, can it now be edited on XP?
No.
Before and after editing a file for the first time on XP, open Terminal, change
to the folder where the files are stored, and give the command ls -l filename
and see is there any difference in the output.
Sorry but I'm not a Terminal/Unix whiz. I'm not quite sure what you're asking me to do here.
Interestingly, I had an occasion to open a file that had been previously edited and saved on XP and then copied over to the Mac. When I went to save it, I got msg:
"Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'Macintosh:Users:david:Documents:aDL:Open Client Initiative:New Requirements.' There are several possible reasons: <none of which was the case>"
I then saved it to the desktop with no problem. Does this perhaps provide any clues?
TIA,
David

IPod Nano bought from North America didn't work with PC in China

This sounds stupid, but I recently bought an iPod Nano (8G) from North America and sent it to my friend in China. However, my friend told me that the PC failed to recognize the iPod. What an embarrassment.
Is that possible? How to resolve? Thanks

First of all, get him/her to try another port on the computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time it's connected to another port.
Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.
Putting iPod into disk mode.
Still no joy, see if any of these articles help.
Windows XP cannot detect an iPod.
USB drivers are not installed properly or are out of date.
iTunes 7 doesn't recognize the iPod.

Is it possible to convert an app from 12c to 11g?

I am using both 11.1.2.4 and 12.1.2.0.
If I have an app built with 12.1.2.0, which does not include any 12c specific features, is it possible to convert it to 11.1.2.4?
I am asking because I have a Development environment that is 12c, but a Production environment that is 11g and I am not sure we will be able to upgrade the Production environment
Thanks in advance..

It's possible but not an easy task. As 12c uses newer stuff you have to test everything with great care. You might find some things you have to rebuild add they won't work in 11.1.2.4.0 (e.g. components which are only available in 12c. If you read the what's new doc for 12c and you find something you have used, prepare to rebuild this part.
First thing to try ids to open the project in 11.1.2.4.0 and see if you can compile and run the app.

HT201232 Is it possible to convert to Mavericks from Yosemite without a Mavericks backup?

I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and recently downloaded Yosemite. Turns out this was a horrible idea and my computer cannot handle the new software properly. I want to revert back to Mavericks, which was running wonderfully with few issues. I have not done a backup, and just ordered an external hard drive to use Time Machine with. I was wondering if it is possible for me to revert to Mavericks if I only have backups of the current Yosemite files/settings. I am not worried about keeping apps and their data (the most important stuff is in iCloud) but am more focused on my files, which I know I can back up to the external hard drive. I want to know if I can actually revert to Mavericks without killing my computer. I'm a recent college grad and don't have a spare $2500 laying around to spend on a new computer, which would be the ideal fix (it's been slow for a while anyways). Help please!

If you have no TM backup with Mavericks but you updated to Mavericks from say Mountain Lion then go to the app store under purchases and see if it will show Mavericks. You may be able to download and install. Be sure to save your files first. You could do an internet recovery (command-option-R) boot and it will install what came with your Mac (e.g. ML) then you can then update to Mavericks from the your purchases it it shows up there.

Moving to France from North America - can I move my router

Hi,
Seems most of my computer equipment will be fine on the new voltages. Anyone know if my old Linksys router GHz will work with a simple wall converter plug?
Are there other network config issues I should consider? We're moving from Alberta to France, Paris specifically.
Thanks for any advice.
Dawn

Check the power adapter. If it's 100-240V you can use it. If not, you can buy a universal power adapter in an hardware store which delivers the same output voltage and enough ampere.
Please remember, that your router with american firmware can only use channels 1-11 on 2.4 GHz band. You are allowed to use 12 and 13 in Europe.
Also remember, that your old router may be too slow for a new, faster internet service, depending on how old the router is. Thus, you may get a 100 Mbit/s service and your router isn't able to deliver it that fast. In the end you may get a new router anyway...

Buying French or World music (itunes France) from North America through itu

Hello,
I live in Canada and would like to buy French music (or UK or German music or Asian music) through itunes. If I connect to itunes store in Canada, none of the french songs I'm looking for shows up. I cannot get access to itunes France since they claim I don't have a credit card in France (isn't that a very lame excuse, pardon me but my canadian credit card is accepted anywhere around the world, why not on itunes France !!! Are they that special ?).
My beef is that people in Canada or USA should be able to buy music from anywhere around the world, not just in their own country, isn't that another lame implementation of itunes ?? Why should I limit myself to canadian music only ??
If I want to buy songs from Hong Kong, I should be allowed to do that on itunes as well.
If Itunes doesn't get this right, well many like me will flock to other services which will soon be ready to fill this void. Actually, to anyone who's listening out there, here's a perfect business opprtunity that itunes is stupid enough to leave wide open for others to exploit.
Do you guys at itunes have a valid reason to limit buyers to their local music selection instead of giving them access to a world wide selection instead ?
Hmm, waiting for a response ...

As I mentioned before, the official reason that I received from Apple was that my credit card wasn't accepted in th e local countries where I wanted to buy the songs.
What they mean is that you need a credit card issued in the country of the iTunes Music Store from which you want to purchase (or a gift certificate or prepaid card purchased in that country). That's how the iTMS (and most if not all of the other stores) verifies residence.
But as I said before, Napster is legit and I believe you can do cross border shopping through them ... That's what mp3.com would have you believe anyway ..
Nope. If you live in the US, you can only buy from the US Napster, and in Canada, you can only by from Napster Canada. That's why they have separate stores for each country. Try it and I think you'll see that I'm correct.

Booting an iMac from a PowerMac??

I have an old PowerMac G4 and a newer, intel-based iMac. No monitor for the G4.
Just was wondering, is it possible to boot an iMac from a PowerMac?

It may be possible, but the following IF conditions must be met.
1. The Power Mac G4 is capable of starting up in FireWire Target Disk Mode.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
2. The startup disk on the Power Mac G4 has Leopard. Leopard is universal. Tiger has separate PowerPC and Intel builds. You won't be able to start up an Intel Mac with PowerPC Tiger.
3. The startup drive in the Power Mac G4 is the set to master, if it is on an IDE bus that has two drives (as master/slave). FireWire Target Disk Mode will only allow access to the drive set to master.
4. The Power Mac G4 is able to start up (normally or in target mode) with no display connected.
If you can do 1-4, connect the Power Mac G4 (in target mode) to the iMac. On the iMac, select the Power Mac's hard drive as the startup disk in System Preferences +Startup Disk+ pane. Restart the iMac.
For point #4, if the Power Mac G4 is able to start up normally with no display connected, and it has at least Tiger as the OS, please post back. I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, but there may be a better solution using the screen-sharing feature.

As you already knew, no, you cannot create a new iCloud account from anything but the above devices.

Is it possible to download iOS 5 from one iMac and not get them totally wiped of apps and stuff. We have an iPad each and a communal email address and an iCloud address each. One iPad now is totally screwed up.

Is it possible to download iOS 5 from one iMac on two ipads and not get them totally wiped of apps and stuff. We have an iPad each and a communal email address and an iCloud address each. One iPad now is totally screwed up.

Thank you for your reply.
I am somewhat new to iOS and OS having grown up with DOS and Windows. I am not familiar with IMAP and iCloud and I am not even sure which types of servers my various emails use.
The problem I would anticipate with iCloud is that (I assume) it would limit my access to data (including mail) on the iCloud to when I happen to be logged onto the internet. I also assume(?) that large files (photos etc.) would require some time to download whenever I wish to access them from whichever device I happen to be using (I hope I am wrong about this).
I have kept my devices to 500gb - 1TB for OS and 32gb - 128gb for iOS but since I have pretty slow WiFi (shared with DirecTV Whole Home and Netflix streaming) it is my impression that iCloud might be quite limited due to data transfer times.
Perhaps a factor would be that I have 2 DSL lines and my main DSL line is connected to two wireless routers (to also provide WiFi in a metal building that blocks WiFi and Cellular signals)
I may be totally wrong in my assumptions regarding iCloud. My mail is not so urgent that I need access to it instantly and I could wait until I had internet access or I can get it on my iPhone. My main concern with iCloud would be my data files (Word, Pages, Excel, Numbers etc.).
On the other hand, if I wanted to keep my 10,000 emails that would take up a lot of iCloud memory and I don't know how to measure how much storage it would take or how to move Hotmail or even iCloud mail to iCloud.
It may take me some time to figure this out.

I urgently need to know how I can connect 8 thunderbolt display, I was thinking with the new mac pro will come out, but I wonder if it is possible to connect an iMac to 4GB of graphics card, but suffers from the imac. thanks

I tightened all HD screws and it didn't help. With the machine running and side of the case off, I physically stopped both the video card fan and the front case fan with my finger for a couple seconds and the noise continued. I also took all hard drives out one by one and rebooted each time. Again, the noise continued until I took out the Mac HD in Bay 1, rebooted, and I had a very quiet, silent machine. The issue is the hard drive in bay 1 that shipped with the computer, it's without a doubt causing the hum/woosh sound. I still need to know if I can safely swap the Mac HD from bay 1 to bay 4 without any issues to the operating system. I would like to try that to see if it dampens the noise but I also want to make sure this swap won't screw up my machine at all.

Is it possible to improve the LMP Bluetooth in iMac from x4 to x6

hi
Is it possible to improve the LMP Bluetooth in iMac from x4 to x6

It can only be swapped out for GPU chips that were available for that model at the time.
The only two options were a 256 or 512 VRAM ATI GPU.
If you have never done any type of computer or Mac hardware upgrades before, the tear down of an iMac is not for a newbie or novice to take on a DIY project.
If your GPU went bad, you will need to bring your iMac in to an Apple Store or Apple authorized repair center to have the iMac's GPU replaced by qualified Apple technicians.
Good Luck!

Is it possible to look a photos from iMac/iPhoto (or Time Capsule)) with iPad?

Hi,
I have all my photos in iMac/iPhoto. I have also a back up available in Time Capsule.
Apple TV device is also available and connected to videoprojector.
I want to look my photos with a iPad? How to to that?
And is it possible to get those viewed from a Time Capsule -> Apple TV -> videoprojector?
Thanks

Using that system, no it's not possible to edit a pic from the shared library and have the edit reflected on the min library. That sharing is intended for viewing only, and the shared library cannot be altered in any way by the client.
If you want the other machine to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc. then:
Quit iPhoto on both machines
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. You could also use a dmg.
(Some people have had success putting the library in the Users/ Shared folder. If you do this make sure the file permissions are set to allow read/write access to everyone.)
On each machine in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both machines will have full access to the library, in fact, both machines will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.
