Mac Windows and installing fonts.

Hi,
I am a novice.
I am attempting to install Greek fonts(I teach Greek) on Mac Word 2008.
When I click Install Font, it doesn't show up in Mac Word.
Please help.
I need step-by-step instructions.
Do I need to re-install my Word?
Help!

I have some old Word files that have greek text in them.
When I open them in Mac Word 2008, the greek appears as webdings.
Why doesn't Mac Word 2008 recognize the font if my Mac has Greek on it?
Probably because the Greek in your files is in some legacy encoding instead of the Unicode used by all modern computers. It may require some non-standard font to read them, and such fonts are sometimes just not recognized by modern apps and OS's.
If you send me a copy of one of the files I will see if I can find a way to convert it to something legible (tom at bluesky dot org).

How to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

how to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

There's not much sense in purchasing a Mac to run only Windows on it. Keep in mind that drivers for Windows are a secondary concern for Apple. While Windows will typicall run fine, things like power managment are not optimized under Windows (you'll get less time on battery while running Windows). You will also not be able to install firmware updates. Firmware updates might be necessary whether you run Windows or OS X as they are updates to the code in your hardware and are not OS-specific. You must be running OS X in order to install a firmware update. You can do this even if you boot off of an external drive with OS X installed on it. At the very least, you should keep just a small partition for OS X on your internal drive.

Hod do I download and install fonts?

Hello,
I've had my iBook two weeks now and here I am back for my second question. I don't understand how to download and install Fonts. I chose one Font online (yes, for mac) and downloaded with no problem. It was placed directly on my desktop and when I click to open it opens in Adobe Bridge and appears as an icon. If I click on the icon it only opens again in the same manner, never actually opening but appearing over and over in a new window box as an icon. I tried to drag and drop it to the Font Book, but nothing. The extension is .sit. Is that right? Thanks in advance.

Hi, your .sit file is compressed, you need StuffIt Expander to open it first.
Choose "Stand-alone Stuffit Expander version 10.0.1" for download.

Uaing Lion. When restart with Boot Camp, am now offered 3 options: Mac, windows, and (new) RECOVERY disk choices. Where did Recovery come from and for what?? Thanks for comments.

HT1750 What about TWO different numbers in MacOs (about this mac window) and on the bottom of the foot of the iMac ???

What about TWO different serial numbers in macOs (about this mac window) and on the foot of the mac. This mac was not purchased as a refurbished nor has been sent for servicing on any time since purchasing...
The one in MacOs is answering : "This is not a valid Apple Product serial number" when i try to check the iMac 1TB Seagate Hard Drive Replacement Program...

You will need to check with Apple - might be a good idea to take it to a Genius Bar so they can see it for themselves (and the diagnosis is free).

Problems triple booting (Mac, Windows, and Tails on usb)

Im having troubles booting TAILS (built on linux) from USB on my Mac.
I have a windows partition setup on the same drive as my Mac os (mavericks). I also have rEFInd setup. When I reboot and enter rEFInd my Mac, windows, and Legacy USB options appear. I select the usb option and windows boots instead. I need to figure out how to boot from the flash drive and stop the Windows boot loader from taking over. Mac os boots normal however.

Going to open new discussion

Unable to boot from disk. I have a Windows 7 installed and cannot login to it. I would like to remove windows and install the orginial or upgraded OS.

I have a MacBook Pro that has Windows 7 installed. I am no longer able to login in to windows. I would like to just start from scratch and rebuild the computer but when I try to boot from the OS install disk I am directed to the boot manger screen. The ony OS avaliable for me to boot to is Windows. I have even tried to use a DBAN disk and usb but nothing seems to work. any suggestions?

If you have inserted the Mac OS X install DVD disc in the DVD drive and used the Option key at boot and all you see on the screen that comes up is the Windows OS disk thenn your DVD drive has failed,
If you have not inserted the OS X install disc in the DVD drive then do that and at Startup/Restart Hold down the Option/Alt key and then select the DVD disc icopn that comes up.

Mac, Windows, and Fedora on Boot Camp?

I currently have Windows XP and of course Mac installed on my MacBook, but I was wanting to get a little experience with Linux again and I was going to install Fedora or openSUSE, but I installed a ISO DVD/CD and it says I have to practically reformat it as a Journaled drive or whatever. Is there anyway to avoid this because doing so would reformat my drive and I don't feel like making backups for all my information every time I want to add an OS. Is there any way around this?
I had to do this before to reinstall Windows.
Also, could anyone tell me what kind of ISO image I should download for a MacBook? On my old HP laptop I thought the ISO-[i386]-DVD was the right one. Or does Mac's need a x86? Or does it really not matter? I just noticed that whatever I downloaded was usually a i386 on the HP. I don't really know the difference.
I plan on getting Parallels again and just doing it like that. Or VMware if that's better? Again, something I could use an opinion on. I had Parallels before and eventually it started causing issues. But that could have been my fault, I was still fairly new to the Mac system.
-Thanks

Hi The Gift,
have a look here for a tri-boot Mac http://blog.christophersmart.com/2009/12/02/how-to-triple-boot-mac-pro-with-os-x -fedora-windows/
And yes, you have to revert back to a single OSX harddisk in order to tri-boot.
Although for initial testing/experiencing I would propose to use VirtualBox http://www.virtualbox.org/ and put Fedora in a VM.
The i386 package should work just fine on your MacBook. Or you can use the 64-bit Fedora variant which is then called x86_64

Slideshows which work for Mac, Windows AND ipads/iphones???

Hi.
My first post here & just getting into mac after many decades of windows!!
After much searching around I have finally found a place (Yola) where I can design a website which is compatible with all browsers/mac/windows..hurray.
However, due to the type of work that I do I need to display 50 photos (before/after). I want to do this with a slideshow. I have made up around 8 from different sites but each time there's a compatibility problem with ipads or iphones (but no problem with mac/windows/nokia smartphone).
Is there a slideshow (FREE) which will work across all platforms? Is iphoto the only way - and will that work with windows and is there a free version.
Finally, the website design software uses 'widgets' to place code into the site for photos/slideshows etc etc.
Any help would really be appreciated!
David
PS Hope to be getting an ipad soon.

come on guys, someone here must play some games on their intel mac?
please help me make my mind up

DVD looks terrible on Mac/Windows and great on TV

Hi
My iDVD project looks sharp when played through a domestic player with a TV, but awful on the computer (Windows and Mac).
It looks soft and mushy.
Any ideas? It is going to be played back mostly on computers.
Thanks

Leanda,
Today's DVD are low resolution devices compared to our computer monitors because they were designed to be viewed on the 'old fashioned' CRT TV sets. An NTSC TV set has less than 640x480 pixels - when you 'blow up' such an image to fill a large computer monitor, the image WILL be 'soft and mushy'.
If you intend to view a movie just on computers and will keep it on a hard drive, you can maintain quality because hard drives can give the highest playback bit-rates. However, if you want to put the movie on a CD or DVD, the playback bit-rate of disc players won't let you maintain the highest quality without skipping. Neither of these options will give you the menu structure of iDVD.
You need to decide what it is that you want.

How can I delete all the data in Mac pro and install the latest version of OSX Mavericks?

Hi,
I want to know why my mac become slow and so, I want to data and system and I want to install the latest version OS X Mcvericks. How can I do?
Thanks

Open the App Store app:
And, choose Mavericks:
Then download and run the installer. Tip: It would be a good idea to quit the installer before proceding with the install, so that you can copy it or move it to location outside of your Applications folder. That way the installer won't be deleted after you run it.
If you don't have a backup of your current Lion partition, the only way that you can do a clean install is to erase that partition, thus losing all of your data.

I have 64bit windows and install proper one for windows and get error saying wron i tunes and to reinstall the right one

i cant get itunes to install also get error after 1 use that itunes does not work again

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

As long as your license supports both platforms you should only have to download the Mac version and install/activate using your serial number. If you need help finding a link to download the file, please indicate the PSE version you need.

Developing an iOS app on Windows and get error 90161 on upload from Mac

Hello,
I have developed an AIR for iOS app in Flash CC 2014 on Windows. I use MacinCloud managed server for uploading .ipa to store for testing. It is virtual server service with Mac OS. They have Application Loader pre-installed.
I made certificates [cer converted to p12] on Windows and installed provisional profile. I made another certificate on Mac and added it to provisional profile too.
I get error when trying to upload from Application Loader:
ERROR ITMS-90161: "Invalid Provisioning Profile. The provisioning profile included in the bundle com.xxx.yyy [Payload/yyy.app] is invalid. [Missing code-signing certificate.] For more information, visit the iOS Developer Portal."
Stuck here. Tried to add cert made on Mac. Flash doesn't like it and stops compilation.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Unfortunately I have no experience with Apple Testflight, but I can show you how to host on your own server.
Create a .plist file on your server with the following data in it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>items</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>assets</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>kind</key>
<string>software-package</string>
<key>url</key>
<string>http://yourserver.com/path/to/ipa</string>
</dict>
</array>
<key>metadata</key>
<dict>
<key>bundle-identifier</key>
<string>com.yourcompany.yourgame</string>
<key>bundle-version</key>
<string>current version of your app</string>
<key>kind</key>
<string>software</string>
<key>title</key>
<string>name of your app</string>
</dict>
</dict>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
Then, on your server, make an HTML page with the following code in it:
<a href="itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=http://yourserver.com/path/to/plist">click here to install<a>
Navigate to that page on your device, click the link, and it should work! (assuming the adhoc provisioning profile you built your app with contains permissions for your device)
