Do you have Application Frame checked?   Window->Application Frame
IRRC the default is unchecked.

  • Need help with loading Windows 7 onto Macbook Pro - Bootcamp and parallels

    Hi,
    I have a windows PC and changing over to a Mac. I purchased today Parallels and Microsoft Office for Mac in order to use them on the MacBook.
    Also please note - I need to use Bootcamp for some programs that I need to use - and then also be able to use parallels.
    Where I am up to at the moment is - since there is no disc drive on the laptop where I can insert the disc - I have gone onto my PC and downloaded the Windows 7  usb/dvd download tool setup - however I dont know where I find the ISO file for Windows 7? So if someone could help me with that.
    Alternatively - can someone please let me know if I can just pay and download Window 7 for Mac - and then run it through boot camp etc. If someone can please give me some advice on this - and also a handy step by step guide on how to achieve it.
    Thank you so much in advance for your help!!!! I really appreciate it!

    Thanks Clinton  - When I went into Apple store today, I told him about the programs my husband needs to use for a CBUS course. The guy there said his room mate has done the same thing and cannot use parallels for the programs they need to run (it doesnt seem to work properly) so he is using boot camp to run them and it works fine. So I am wanting to run Boot camp first and then once the course is finished run everything through parallels. 
    So I have gone into Boot Camp - and because there is no Disc drive I cannot insert the disc - so I have gone back onto the PC to put windows onto a USB to then use with Bootcamp. I just cannot find the ISO file path for Windows.
    I hope this all makes sense!
    I am thinking I maybe i will buy the windows ISO file instead of trying to hunt it down on the PC. Do you think this is the best way to do it?

  • Need help with installation

    I recently received a laptop from school to access my online classes.  When I tried to use Adobe Reader I received the following message:  Adobe Reader 9.1 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  Sorry for the inconvenience.  I tried tech support at school and was told to uninstall and reinstall the program.  During the installation process I received the following error:  Error 1321 The installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:/Program Files/Adobe/Reader 9.0/Reader/Onix32dll. I need this program for school.  Can some one please help me.

    Hello again, Michael,
    Was unable to do the UAC changes.  Buttons where not highlighted.  I just went ahead and uninstalled Adobe and downloaded Foxitsoftware and it works.   Thanks for all your help Michael you have made my online school experience better.
    Sincerely,

    Subject: Need help with installation
    Hello again, Sherri:
    It's my pleasure to provide assistance when I can :•) Having just recently graduated after 7 years of effort just to get a 2-year degree, I can relate to needing software to get class work accomplished. I will do everything I can to make it happen for you today.
    Since you didn't mention, the UAC setting, I'd like you to disable it for me if it isn't already:
    1. Open Control Panel
    2. Under User Account and Family settings, click on the "Add or remove user account"
    3. Click on any user account
    4. Under the user account click on the "Go to the main User Account page" link.
    5. Under "Make changes to your user account", click on the "Change security settings" link
    6. In the "Turn on User Account Control (UAC) to make your computer more secure" click to unselect the "Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer". Click on the Ok button.
    7. You will be prompted to reboot your computer - do so when ready
    You may need to uninstall/reinstall Reader after the reboot in order for the problem to go away, but that part I am not certain of. Try to duplicate the issue prior to taking that step.
    If you are unable to resolve issues with Adobe Reader, I recommend using a different reader that has much less bloat and is updated regularly:
    http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/
    FoxIT is a FREE alternative to using Adobe's Reader. Support for free Adobe products is limited forums such as this. The same holds true for open source alternatives except the manufacturer usually helps support their forums while Adobe doesn't monitor this forum or any like it. I know how important it is for you to focus on your classes so don't beat your head against a wall just because Reader won't work when a viable solution exists.
    Best of success in your pursuit of knowledge!

  • Need help with Tamil unicode fonts in Macbook OSX 10.6.7

    I am really desperate for some help figuring out my Tamil unicode font problem. With great difficulty I got all these fonts set up on my previous ibook G4. When that computer died in the fall I got this new Macbook, and had all my data brought from the old computer to the new one. Fonts were working great, as before. Well recently I had a hard drive failure on my new Macbook (OSX 10.6.7). I now have a new hard drive, and I brought over all my data from an external hard drive using Time Machine. Everything appeared to be working great....except the Tamil fonts. Previously I was using Murasu Anjal unicode font which allowed me to type in Tamil font and view Tamil on webpages, no problem. I understand that Snow Leopard has Tamil font support (including Anjal), so I am confused as to why they were working before but are not working now-especially because on my husband's Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6.5) you can see Tamil fonts on webpages and he has no special Tamil font installed whatsoever. For me the only thing visible is boxes. I am in the midst of finishing up a dissertation which is really dependent on being able to read and write in Tamil fonts. I am desperate to get this fixed but just cannot seem to figure it out. I would greatly appreciate any help or advice!!! Thanks so much!!!

    I've always used the Anjal keyboard with no problem...at least there was no problem before my MacBook hard drive had to be replaced, with a newer operating system, as I had mentioned previously. When I type in Pages, NeoOffice or TextEdit, the results are the same. Many of the characters show up, but vowel combinations--especially the "o" or "u" vowels--show up incorrectly or are unintelligible. Strangely, typing in Tamil font (using Anjal keyboard) in internet searches works perfectly, but ONLY in Firefox (?) NOT in the Safari browser. Prior to re-installing the InaiMathi font, which had seemingly vanished with the transfer of my data to the new hard drive, I was unable to type Tamil anywhere, not even in Firefox. Now it works only in Firefox. For example, if I were to type in Tamil in this window, it works fine: தமிழ் நாடு. 
    Being able to do Tamil searches in Firefox as I had previously is really a major boon for me, but of course I'd love to be able to produce Tamil text, especially as I am about to embark on a 6 month research jaunt to South Asia.
    Many thanks for all your help thus far, and for any further advice you might have.

  • Need help installing Samsung 830 SSD on MacBook Pro 13"

    Hello everyone, my MacBook Pro recently crashed a couple weeks ago and I tried to get it working but no luck! So I figured it was the perfect time to make an investment in SSD and check out how it is.
    So I bought a Samsung 830 SSSD 128gb. I installed the hard drive and inserted the Mac OS X disc and booted up my MBP. Once I went through the installation, it asked me where I would like to install the OS on but my SSD didn't appear. Can someone please help me? I am not too savvy with computers.
    As of now, I only have access to my PC so someone please help me  :( Thanks in advance! :)
    -David

    OK, you have an original installation disc (usually a gray disc that came with your Mac)?
    Boot from the Install disc. You should have the option of either selecting Disk Utility from the main menu or from a "Utilities" menu at the top.
    Open Disk Utility.
    You should see a disk with a strange name. Select it and choose "Erase" with the Format as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" and a Name such as "Macintosh HD" (or whatever you'd like to name it. Just select erase - no need for a secure erase or anything.
    Once you've formatted the SSD you should be able to quit Disk Utility and continue installing the system on the newly formatted drive.
    Give it a shot - call back with any problems as I'll be up all night...

  • Need help installing Photoshop CS6 trial on MacBook Pro

    I keep trying to install the trial version of Photoshop CS6 on my macbook pro (version 10.6.8) and I was able to download it fine from the download assistant. Once I tried installing it, however I kept coming up with the same error. First it says that the images couldn't be opened because of an invalid checksum, then if I opt to skip that step it comes up with a window letting me install it which I do but once it hits 44% it jumps to 99% and says installation failed due to an inauthentic certificate, saying "Adobe Genuine Software Verification Failure."
    How do I fix this???

    Sounds like your download got corrupted.  You can try downloading it again.

    What classes?
    -Do I have to buy Windows 7 OS for Macintosh?
    If you want to run it on the Mac you will. Check with your school and see if they offer cut-rate education deals on these things.
    -Do I have to buy Microsoft Office again?
    No. You can use the Mac version.
    -Can I transfer Microsft Office to Windows 7 on my Mac using Boot Camp?
    Yes, but that seems like an awful lot of hassle. I suggest Parallels if you must use Windows. Use Office on the Mac side. Double-check that "Windows" requirement.
    -Also can buy A Macbook Pro through payments?
    Depends. What is your credit score?
    Im taking Business Computer Applications, I dont own a credit card or i dont think i even have credit but ill see what i can do. But thanks anyways im you all responded.

  • Help with networking between pc and Macbook PRo

    i am using macbook pro running 10.5.4 , at home i have 3 pc's using Windows XP and they connected via router .
    When i connect the mac i can see all the pc's and i have access to each one of them and i also have internet . the ip that i get is 192.168.1.4.
    My problem is none of the pc's see the mac . i configured the file sharing section in the mac plus all the " share files using SMB " .
    when i going to " My Network Places " in the pc i don't see any of the shared foldes of the mac but when i am getting into :
    ENTIRE NETWORK > MICROSOFT WINDOWS NETWORK > WORKGROUP
    i can see there the mac but when i click all i see is PRinters & Faxes .
    i tried everything but nothing helps plus i tried to find out if there is something related to the admin account ?
    Any Idea what should i do ?

    x's networking isnt the best (read alot of the time it likes to play dumb). But most of the time the problem lies in the numbers. You need to make sure both machines have the same first 3 numbers in their ip address (ie, 192.168.0.x) and that they are both looking at the same router (ie. 192.168.0.1). Thats usually the first trouble maker. But i have also noticed lately leopard sometimes like to just not network. Might try a restart if the number thing isnt playing nice.
    there are other potential external problems, like if you've directly connected the computers by ethernet, but arent using a crossover cable. But thats probably your problem, since you have file sharing turned on.

  • Can anyone help with ways to find my MacBook Pro?

    My apartment was robbed and they stole my MacBook Pro. Along with other things I'm out approximately $4,000 in items. Probably the only items i owned worth anything, and the landlord of the studio apartment i live in hasn't even bothered to fix my window that the person broke to come in through. I have my serial number but I don't have find my iPhone set up on the MacBook. Is there any way of tracking it down? Any suggestions would be great. I'm just guessing there's no hope.

    There is no way to track it based on what you have stated.
    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • Need help connecting Dell U2713HM monitor to MacBook Pro

    What is the best way to connect a Dell U2713HM monitor to MacBook Pro OS 10.7.5 to maximize the resolution 2560 x 1440? I was using a VGA adapter on my old Viewsonic monitor that hooked into the Thunderbolt port, I think. When I use my old adapter with the new Dell monitor, it stops my Mac from responding and the monitor says it has no DVI connection. When I unplug the adapter from my Mac, it starts working again.  I'm not very good with all these port options and descriptions so talk real slow, please.

    1 Dual Link Digital Visual Interface connectors (DVI-D) with HDCP
    1 DisplayPort 1.2 (DP)
    1 High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)

    4 USB 3.0 downstream ports

  • Need Help Transfering Video From HV20 to Macbook Pro

    I've lloked everywhere and I can't find the process to transfer my video from my HV20 to my Macbook Pro.
    Can some one please point me in the right direction?
    Thanks in advance.

    Do you have the necessary firewire cable? USB will not capture your video to your Mac. With that, it's a simple matter of hooking the cam up to the Mac, with cam off, Mac on. Open iMovie and have your cam set on playback. Then turn on the cam and your Mac should present you with the import button.
