please need a big help here

Install and setup are the same thing. What I'm asking is Windows 8 installed on the whole drive or only on a small partition with Boot Camp.
Boot Camp is a Mac program that enables you to install Windows on your Intel-based Mac computer, using a
Microsoft Windows install disc that you provide. Windows is installed on its own
partition. After installation, you can use either Windows or Mac OS X on your Mac
computer.
The Boot Camp Assistant application helps you create the Windows partition and
restart your Mac using your Windows installation disc. Then you can follow these
instructions to install Windows and install software drivers that enable Windows to
work with your Mac hardware

  • AIRPORT WORKS ON WINDOWS BUT NOT ON MAC OSX

    I own a Mac Mini Intel and I have installed Windows XP with bootcamp. In Windows XP I can connect to my wireless router (and Internet)without problem, but not in Mac OSX. I had this problem with the 10.4.x version, and although I have upgraded to Leopard, the problem continues the same. I can access the router in Windows and change any settings (I say that for if someone knows the solution and it includes changes in the router). Has someone had this problem before? Has someone any solution to this problem? Thank you.

    Yes i Seem to be experiencing a similar problem as you, in which connecting to a router on OS X is easy but as soon as i try it on windows xp it cannot establish a connection but my router is already connectingto other windows pcs. Maybe this is because windows cannot recognizethe built in airport, or perhaps it needs to be configured in a way to work with both Xp and os X

  • I bought a used mac air notebook the computer says it comes with iphoto but i cant find it help please

    i need help finding i photo on my mac air

    The license to use iPhoto is not transferable. It is included with new Macs, but it cannot be sold, so it will not be on any used Macs. You will not have iMovie or GarageBand either.
    You must purchase your own copies of these apps from the App Store.

  • I have a maginon film scanner bought from ALDI. It works with windows but with OSX Maverick software it keeps crashing as soon as I try and capture an image. I cannot find details of software updates anywhere.

    I have a maginon film scanner bought from ALDI. It works with windows but with OSX Maverick software it keeps crashing as soon as I try and capture an image. I cannot find details of software updates anywhere.

    Same question answered here : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5762314?tstart=0
    I just popped in with using Mavericks (I got rid of my MBP about a year ago, and just got another one when I got an Air for my wife) and noticed that Mavericks is not working and playing well with a couple of programs I already owned (Paraellels, for example...yes, I spelled it wrong...).  I looked for maginon.com and it didn't exist, nor was my google search directed to another location for them, so I postulate that the device may not be in production anymore, thus: no driver updates from the manufacturer.
    From my mac-noob-layman's perspective: get some vmware, run windows and use the scanner in your virt machine to capture your images.  Put the images in your mac side and work your mac magic on them there.
    Peace

  • Works on Windows but timeout on linux

    I have a problem with the code below. It perfectly works under Windows, but I am getting a timeout under Linux. I am not sure why. Any ideas?
    One more thing: Under Liunx It fails when I am testing it using port 1935. However, if I test it with port 110, it works. On Windows it works with both ports (110 & 1935).
    Thanks you!

    outToServer.println((char)13);You should flush() the outputstream after writing, before you do a subsequent read on the socket's inputstream.

  • Can manually subscribe with Windows but not with Mac

    For some reason I am able to manually subscribe to the below feed just fine with iTunes on my PC (Windows XP) but I get an error when trying with my iMac (OS X 10.5.8):
    *http://feeds.feedburner.com/Metalspeak*
    The error I'm getting with my iMac references "An unknown error occured (400)"
    I was troubleshooting a different feed and am getting similar results: it works fine with the PC, but not with the iMac:
    *http://feeds.feedburner.com/MetalsPeakPodcast*
    The error I'm getting on this feed however states "The file might be corrupted, or a file type that iTunes cannot play"
    Can anyone think of why these feeds work with Windows but not with Mac? Any advice is appreciated!

    The problem lies with the URLs for your media files. The one for the top episode is
    http://www.metalspeak.com/episodes/MetalsPeak 10 - GenresPeak.mp3
    This URL contains spaces, which are not allowed in a URL. Browsers - and from what you say iTunes in Windows - handles this by substituting the code %20 for each space when requesting the file; iTunes for Mac does not.
    You need either to change the filename for each media file, removing the spaces or substituting something such as an underscore, and then amending the feed accordingly: or at the least to amend the feed by replacing each space with %20.
    It's the same problem in the other feed.

    You should remove his AppleID and restore it as new.

    Reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • CS6 Plugin works on windows but not mac

    Hi,
    We have been developing a plugin for InDesign since CS3 and have recently ported it to CS6 (it was ported to all previous versions too, as they came out).
    I followed the porting guide etc. and on windows it compiles and runs just ok - the plugin works correctly.
    But when i compiled the same files on our mac machine and put the .indesignPlugin file in th plugins directory i can't see our plugin's context menu.
    I can see that it is in fact loaded on startup (when i remove it ID loads 325 extensions, when i put it back - 326), but still it dosen't seem to work...
    I initially thought that the versioning was off but our PluginVersion resource relies solemnly on SDKDef.h , i also tried putiing the file in CS5's plugin directory and got an error message that CS6 is required - so the version info is fine i guess.
    We are using xCode 3.2.5 (because we have to support Mac OS 10.5 and 10.4) to build on mac and i've never had problems before - it worked on CS4, CS5 and CS5.5.
    The changes i made when porting were minor and only in the code - so what has changed? and how come it works on windows but not on mac?
    Any input is greatly appreciated, i've already spent days trying to understand this.
    Thanks,
    Dan.

    Hi and thank you for replying.
    The resources do get compiled correctly (i assume this because we do get a .indesign file at the end - which means the ODFRC ran ok). they are linked correctly in the mac project (i saw a file that determines the version - it's linked the same way against my win and mac projects and the win version works fine so i guess that's ok too).
    the context menu is just another menu on the "menu bar" (don't know how to call it?) - i.e where the "file" and "edit" etc. menus are.
    I can't seem to understand how come this works fine under windows but not under mac - they are essentially the same projects linked against the same resources (the difference being iCode vs VC10 projects).
    can this be related to the fact we're using xCode 3.2.5?
    Thank you.

    If you don't have your install disks you can get the gray disks by calling Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 They can send them to you for about $16 per disk plus S & H. Just give them your serial number and they'll know which ones you need.
    Or you can get a Snow Leopard retail disk for $29.  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
