MMC for schema extentions for OSX and AD

hi all
i'm aware that there are 30+/- active directory schema extensions that should allow AD to directly manage OSX.
is anyone aware of an MMC that can take advantage of the extensions ? i'd hate to need a OSX just so i can run workgroup manager

I want to partition an external device for OSX and Windows. Opened Disk utility but Partition is not an option

Why not? does the partition tab not exist?

Mac Pro - Separate HD for OSX and Windows?

Hello Mac Pro users - maybe some of you can help...
Are going to buy a Mac Pro soon - which will be used for graphic artwork and Windows games. Today I have a Mac and a PC - for the same purpose - and now I want to build the Mac Pro with a harddisk for OSX - and another harddisk for Windows (XP or Vista). Is it possible to have 2 separate HD's (or more) with each systems using the standard setup by Bootcamp - or do I have to make a partition on the OSX HD and then install Windows there?
I'm asking this pro forum because I can't get a clear answer here in Denmark where I live - a Apple supplier first said it was impossible - then 2 days later, that it was possible, but they will charge me for 2 hours of support - and in another forum some have told me it was easy - but have given me no help how to do it - and again some have told me to use some software called "rEFIt".
So is it possible - and hard to do?
If possible, please tell me in steps how to do...

Boot Camp will allow you to
utilise an entire disk for Windows. If you go to the
Boot Camp web page you can actually see it in a
picture…
http://www.apple.com/bootcamp/
The only thing you need to be wary of is that the
Boot Camp Assistant will not wrok from a Mac OS X
installation that is on a RAID set. As long as you
boot mac OS X from a single drive then it's really
easy.
I had a setup for awhile of two drives in RAID-0 for my Startup drive, a backup single drive, and a separate 300GB drive just for Windows.
In Windows the "Startup" drive in Control Panel would not show the RAID-0 Startup volume, but I could startup from it by hitting Option when it rebooted.

HDD formatting for OSX and Windows

How can I format a HDD so that it is readable and writable from under both windows and osx?

My "problem" is fairly simple.
My brother gave me 2 200GB SATA disks from his Windows machine with his data and a new 500GB WD MyBook external HDD and asked me to move stuff from his 2 200GB disks onto the new external 500GB drive. I copied the data from his 200GB disks onto my Mac, then formatted the 500GB drive like I would for OSX and copied it. He could not read it. I re-formatted it to FAT32 and could not copy much. Then I formatted it to NTFS using some very very old laptop I found but could not copy anything onto it. HAHA. So now I am stuck with 400GB of his data on my HD and I need to not only give him his data, but also rid my HD of 400GB of his stuff.
I tried doing the MacFuse and NTFS-3G but it did not work. I don't have access to his computer so I can't install anything onto it.

One card for OSX and one for windows...

OK, I've been following the ongoing debate regarding the choice of graphics cards for the Mac Pro. I think saying that it's limited would be putting it mildly.
Now, I really wish for a few more horsepower for when I'm playing Warcraft in Bootcamp but I really don't want to fork out £270 for the 1900XT just for apple to come along and update the range in x months and as I only really need the extra oomph in windows I wouldnt really see any benefit in OSX from the new card. Some people have touched on the idea of perhaps using a seperate card for when using windows. This would be great as I can get a better card for use in windows for a fraction of the price of a new apple card. What are the pro's and con's of doing this? Would the non-apple card confuse OSX and vica-versa would windows see both cards? Would I need to specify in windows which card I want to use? Would I have to remove a card each time I booted in the 'other' OS?
Educate me a little please :O)

I left WoW with over 200 days played and moved from a G4 to a Mac Pro with a 1900 during that time. I also ended up having my x1900 card replaced by Apple. According to many sources there is now a Rev2 card being shipped. I can't confirm it but I can confirm that fewer people seem to be having problems, and if you use SMC FanControl while playing WoW it will keep things cool and you'll be assured of no over heating issues. Personally I would not be concerned if I used SMC Fan Control, and in fact after getting the new card and beginning to use SMC Fan Control I had no further issues of any kind. The issue was with overheating. WoW runs just fine in OSX using the x1900 card. FPS over 100 is not uncommon and even in the Suppression room in BWL (still the most intense graphic area I can recall...nothing like it in Kara or anywhere else I've seen in the new content) I'd get 40-80fps. It's no SLI super high end, but very, very playable with a Mac Pro.

Ho do I use one monitor for OSX and Windows 8.1 bootcamp

I am a long time Mac user, but find the fairly recent Apple switch to thunderbolt for monitor input very frustrating.
For several years I have ran a Mid 2010 IMac 27" and input video from a Mac Mini running Boot Camp Windows 7 using Target Display Mode on the IMac.
This worked fine until I upgraded to a Late 2013 27" IMac and discovered that the IMac has moved to thunderbolt as the input for Target Display Mode. The new late 2013 27" IMac just will not display native Windows 7 or 8 from a Boot Camp Mac anymore.
My problem is that I have two business/job related Windows apps that must run on a native windows 7 or 8 platform, and won't function under either Parallels or VMWare Fusion.
I have tried.
And there appears to be no way to get any Windows machine with DVI or Mini Display Port output to drive a late 2013 IMac in Target Display mode.
So, with great frustration, I have concluded that I need to purchase a non-Apple 27-30" monitor, and drive it with either a Mac Mini, or my Early 2013 15" MacBook Pro retina, running one of the Macs into on of the mini-Display Ports on the monitor and a native Windows 7 or 8 machine into a second mini-display port, switching between the two video inputs. The Dell 30" monitor seems to get the nod.
Has anyone found a better solution to switching between OSX and native Windows on one monitor?
Thanks...

Hi William,
I had the same experience in December 2013 and contacted Apple about it. According to Apple it's an issue of Windows with Thunderbolt. Your older iMac from 2010 is using DisplayPort and not Thunderbolt for the Target Display Mode. Note that just the connector looks the same but it's still a different technology. Please further note that the response below does not apply for the new iMac 27" with the 5K display because this iMac does not support Target Display Mode at all, hence can't be used as external display. Of course you can still attach one or two external displays to the iMac 27" 5K.
Hope this clears things up for you and the others.
Thanks,
Martin
So, here is the important part of the official response from Apple:
"... The Thunderbolt controller in an iMac is running exclusively in host mode. As such it cannot emulate a device mode Thunderbolt display. Instead it implements a custom Target Display Mode protocol that shares video between two peer to peer machines running with both controllers running in host mode. The "client" side of the driver does not exist on Windows so windows cannot speak to the "server" half in the iMac. There are no plans to implement a client driver for Windows since there is no Thunderbolt SW stack available for Windows. The reason this used to work is that the older iMacs used DisplayPort for Target Display Mode. In this scenario the iMac was able to expose the panel in such a way that it looked exactly like a Display Port Device which Windows does have driver support for. ... "

Mighty mouse alternative for OSX and XP

Just ordered a Mac Pro - upgrading from G5 Powermac. I got the mighty mouse with the G5 and of course the MP comes with the same. I have gotten used to the mighty mouse to a point but part of the reason for getting the MP is for Windows and gaming. For this I think another mouse with 'real' buttons might be better. What are your recommendations for a quality wired multi-purpose mouse (XP and OSX) and are there any mouses (mice/moose/meece) that have a scroll wheel similar to the might mouse one (very useful in PS etc). I'm not keen on trackball types btw.
Thanks

The Logitech MX510. Love it w/ Mac and Windows.
I'm a QA engineer w/ Avid and purchased this mouse for multi-button assignment mouse testing on mac and pc. I have one at home now too, it's the cat's meow. (sorry bad joke).
I just couldn't get use to the mighty mouse. Don't dig the "Touch-sensitive top shell".

Partitions for OSX and Win-XP, Photo Library and Scratchdisk

Hello everybody,
I have just received my 160GB hard disk for my MacBook, before installing it I have a question:
I want to run OSX, and windows XPPro
Within OSX I will be using Aperture
Within the XPPro environment I will be using CS2
Question 1.
for the CS2 envrinment I want to partition a schratchdisk of appr. 20GB. Will I be able to use this schratchdisk from both OSX and XP depending on when I use them (I am also able to run CS2 from OSX)
Question 2.
I want to access a single photo library from both OSX and XPPro, do I make an extra partition for this as well ?
I would be most pleased for any comments or alternative setups on partitioning.
I will be using Bootcamp.
Thanks in advance

I would only partition for scratch disk and running XP. For iPhoto it is best if the pictures are on the same partition as the operating system as it makes it easier to backup your data as my FAQ explains
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
Before partitioning, be sure to backup your data at least twice, as partitioning may cause the drive to fail if there is anything wrong with it at the low level. Apple´s Boot Camp utility theoretically can partition without wiping the drive, and other methods of running XP on your MacBook may make their own virtual partition to run XP on which you can copy over to a formatted partition with the installer´s Disk Utility if you so desire, or you can keep on your main partition. This FAQ of mine explains what those methods of running XP on Intel Macs are
http://www.macmaps.com/macosxnative.html#INTEL
You may find though you don´t have to run XP at all. There are many more compatible Mac compatible titles than you might think which you can find in the above FAQ.

Shared home folder for OSX and Windows

Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to have a shared home folder for Windows and OSX.
We have an AD and ODS. Is this possible, if it is, using CIFS?
Hope hearing from anyone
Best Regards.

hallo victor,
thanks for your answer. unfortunately this does not solve my problem. my sap landscape is more complex.
there are several sap installations in diverent windows domains and some are on as/400 (and there is another windows domain) all are in different networks and are protected by firewall. furthermore there is a rule (maybe some exceptions are allowed) that there must not be qntc connections over these firewalls.
with a shared folder between a windows workstation in one network and an as/400 in another network it works fine. but as a mentioned first - there is the problem with the sapservice<sid> userid which is to long for as/400 environment. I think there must be a tricky solution (hope so).
kind regards
helmut

One license for OSX and PC?

Is there any way that I can purchase one license (with educational discount) and use it for BOTH my Mac and PC?
Per the licensing: when I buy a copy I can install it on two PCs OR two Macs, but not one of each, correct? I personally think this is a bit ridiculous and refuse to buy two copies.
Looking at the volume licensing, found at http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/volumelicensing/policies/?PID=2159997 it says..
Cross-platform licensing
Adobe Volume Licensing (AVL) customers receive product serial numbers for both Windows® and Mac OS as long as the product is available for both and the two platforms are the same version. Program members can choose to use either platform, as long as the total number of licenses being used does not exceed the number purchased."
However, does that mean that I can use it on both, as long as they aren't running at the same time, or that I must choose to install one or the other?
I am willing to buy the volume license (though a bit more expensive), but I absolutely refuse to buy two licenses.
Is there any solution where I don't have to buy two licenses? (according to one site I can buy backup disks for each platform with a volume license, but I don't want to do that either)

Yes, that particular language on multi-platform is explained here, and how that should work
I don't think you have to buy backup discs unless you personally need them, although they're only $20 apiece anyway and not a bad idea to have

Webcam for OSX and Windows

SAP GUI 7.10 rev 1 for OSX and WIN XP with transaction MIGO

Hello,
When I start transaction MIGO and MIGO_GR, with SAP GUI 7.10 rev 1, I only get a blank screen.
I've tried it in OSX 10.4.9, OSX 10.5.1 and Windows XP, all with the same result.
SAP GUI 7.10 gives the correct screen.
Do you have a solution for this ?

Hard drive formatting for OSX and Windows 7 using GUID

Hey,
I am currently trying to format a 2TB WD Elements external hard drive so that I can use one half with Time Machine and the other half with Windows 7 (run using Boot Camp). From looking around online it appears that GPT is the best to use, and so using Disk Utility I formatted the hard hard drive into 2 partitions, one being Mac Os Extended (Journaled) and left the other as empty space. I then switched to Windows 7 (on the same machine) and formatted the empty space as NTFS. The problem is that now Windows 7 can see both partitions (and can see the contents of the HFS partition which I didn't think would be possible) but OSX can only see the NTFS partition (and has changed the label of the HFS partition from what I set to "disk0s2" when viewed in Disk Utility). I've probably done something very wrong, can anyone help?
Cam

you would have been fine had you set the free space to FAT instead.
You can read only from Windows to HFS unless you buy 3rd party HFS driver.
Same for NTFS only reverse.
You do not need or want to use BC Assistant for that external drive. At. All.

License for OSX and Windows

I am interested in purchasing a copy of PSE 9, but I am unsure on the licensing rules. As far as I can ascertain, one can have PSE installed on one notebook and one desktop on the same liscense, assuming only one can be used at any given time. If that is correct, how does this apply to different operating systems on each computer? For instance, I have a Macbook Pro (running OSX 10.6.4) and a desktop PC (running Windows 7 x64). Would I still be able to use the one license across both systems?
Thanks for your help.

PSE9 is multi-platform so you can run both side by side, subject to a maximum of two installations.
If you ever need to transfer PSE9 to another computer you must first deactivate the Editor by going to Help >Deactivate (it will be grayed out in trial versions)
