New iMac with windows 7 64bit

Why does the New iMac 27" with SSD 768GB / bootcamp / runs only with Windows 7 Professional 32 bit and not with 64bit?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
It's the inverse. The Late 2012 iMac is only compatible with 64-bit Windows versions in Boot Camp. The main reason is the memory: the iMac comes with 8 GB of memory, and a 32-bit Windows version can only detect 4 GB or less. Also, it's time to upgrade to 64-bit operating systems, that works with both 32 and 64-bit applications.
If you want to use a 32-bit Windows version, the only solution is to install Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox, and install Windows in a virtual machine

New iMac 21" with Windows 7 64bit - NIC speed only 100Mbps

Odd issue. I have a new 21" iMac with Windows 7 64bit installed (fresh) but can only get the NIC to transmit at 100/10Mbps. I have another older 20" iMac on the network running Windows XP which is connected at 1Gbps. I've installed the newest Broadcom drivers for the Windows 7 machine but it only connects at the lower speed. I've replaced the CAT5 cable as well. I'm still researching this issue.

WET54GS5 with Windows 7 64bit

I would greatly appreciate some help with getting my WET54GS5 Wireless Ethernet Bridge to work. I just got a new computer with Windows 7 64bit, and at the same time installed a new Linksys E3000 Wireless Router. I would still like to use my existing WET54GS5 to work, but am having difficulties.
First, I do not have the Setup CD any more. I have searched vigorously on the web, and can not find it anywhere for download. Could some kind soul please zip up the disc, and make it available for download?
Second, I did try to access the bridge directly with the 192.168.1.226 address, but that did not work. And I did try the Reset procedure numerous times.
I know that new versions of the Bridge are available, but they only have one port available -- I need three.
So, many thanks in advance for any help, particularly if anyone could make the Setup files available.
Best regards,
Nick P

Answers for both questions,,
First original
To connect directly to the
WET54GS5 you must make alterations in the adapter settings of the computer,,, since the bridge is almost like a funky switch you will have to adjust the computer adapter manually to IP 192.168.1.90 and click the subnet box to autofill that in than just apply that. close out and you should be able to access the manual web based aplication. Make sure to set computer adapter back to auto obtain IP once you finish. doh just saw previouse post http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=6bf4ec9e5c6e44618af5f50f91c49c59_4894.xml&pid=80&r...
The other question reguarding using one of the WET adapters and connecting a switch I am doing that right now and it works perfectly,, although it does create a extra network device to appear within the main network so some computers think there is multiple networks.. a little annoying but not a serious problem. Mainly only with older computers like XP

If you don't want Boot Camp and you don't want a virtual machine, go buy a Windows computer.
Both Boot Camped Windows and Windows running in a virtual machine work well. Your issues are because of your lack of knowledge or understanding, not because Boot Camp and virtual machines are poor products. Universities, large and small businesses, home users, etc. use virtual machines to run their operating systems.
Your statements about Boot Camp and Parallels are not the experience of thousands of users.
Either find someone who is knowledgeable about running Windows on Apple computers to help you or buy a Windows computer. Believe me, if you find a way to install only Windows on your Apple computer without using Boot Camp or a virtual machine you will have more problems than what you have already experienced.

I purchased a new iMac with latest iLife suite, however, IMovie will not read my videos. I deleted a 3iVX file that was not working but nothing happens now. Help

I just purchased a new iMac with the latest iLife suite. As part of the migration process in setting up the new machine the 3Ivx video codec was brought onto the new machine as well as my old movies. When I tried opening the movies iMovie crashed and told me it had a problem with the 3IVX video codec, in doing some research I found that the 3IVX video codec created a problem so I deleted it and downloaded Perian 123. The Perian 123 works well with Quicktime but iMove does not now see my old movies. At this point I cannot open any of my movies. Can anyone help? Thanks

There also might be a more updated, compatible 3ivx codec you can install, or just try re-installing a newly downloaded version of of the same old codec: http://www.3ivx.com/download/macos.html
Otherwise download and install MPEG Streamclip: http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
In iMovie hold down CTRL and click on the clips that don't open. Choose Reveal in Finder. Convert those files by dragging them into the window of converter program, and save as Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC). That format is native to iMovie and will work perfectly.

I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
After this, do an update from the App Store.
Thats all there is to it.
For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

I am using Photoshop CS5 on a new iMac with a wireless keyboard. I used to be able to hit F11 to perform a custom sharpening action but now the F11 key is the volume control key and I have tried everything to disable or switch the volume key. I have also tried assigning other function keys to initiate the action. Is there a simple solution to this? What am I missing?

Try unmounting the volume on your iMac using Disk Utility. Then mount it again. You may need to reboot the laptop or relaunch its Finder process (using the Force Quit window) after remounting the drive on your iMac. Remember that no process may be accessing any files on the drive you plan to unmount, or the unmount will fail. Unmounting and remounting an external drive on my iMac made it become visible on my MacBook Pro after it had disappeared.

Does anyone have the same problem with my new iMac?

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.

Have new iMac with iPhoto sharing turned on. When the shared library is clicked the library disappears or starts to load then disappears? What is wrong?

Have new iMac with iPhoto sharing turned on. When the shared library is clicked the library disappears or starts to load then disappears? What is wrong?

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it doesn't then your current library is damaged and needs repair.
Therefore make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If you experience the same problem with the test library then try this basic fix a try: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If that fails a reinstall of iPhoto is indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,
Click to view full size
Then install iPhoto from the source it came on originally.

Good morning,

You can't use Boot Camp in 3 TB drives. You can download VirtualBox, Parallels or VMware Fusion and install Windows on a virtual machine. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3321

Transferring old iPhoto library to new iMac with iPhoto 11

I have an external hard drive which contains my old iPhoto library (let's call it iPhoto A library) with about 10 years of pictures. This was saved from an older version of iPhoto. Since then, I started a new iPhoto library (let's call it iPhoto B library on my old computer but with iPhoto now upgraded to iPhoto 11).
My question is: now I have a brand new iMac with iPhoto 11 (and absolutely no pictures currently in it!). How do I successfully transfer both of my iPhoto libraries over to my new iMac? I would prefer that they be in one library, but I'm not strongly opposed if they need to be in separate library. My second question: if they are in separate libraries, when do I save them? Same folder? Where?
By the way, when I try to open my iPhoto A library, it says "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work on this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete."
Thanks so much to the Community for helping me!

How do I successfully transfer both of my iPhoto libraries over to my new iMac?
drag them over (of course they can not have the same name) - Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
I would prefer that they be in one library, but I'm not strongly opposed if they need to be in separate library.
There is no way to do this with iPhoto - if you have iPhoto '11 version 9.3 or newer you can purchase Aperture and use it to merge libraries. Or you can purchase iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use it to merge iPhoto libraries.
My second question: if they are in separate libraries, when do I save them?
Where ever you want - if you have seperate libraries you switch between them by depressing the option key and launching iPhoto and using the switch library window
By the way, when I try to open my iPhoto A library, it says "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work on this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete."
That is correct - old versions of iPhoto can not access newer versions libraries
and what ever you choose to do be sure tha tyou backup procedures are backing up everything

Function keys don't work on New IMac with Leopard.. very sad

We just got a New IMac with Leopard at work and my F Keys don't work at all. I have tried everything, even checking the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys", but it doesn't work at all. I use these keys all the time. How can I fix this?

WebWolf wrote:
My Bad, I am sure I am not the only one that has done this. I had not assigned the F Keys to their function under Exposé, I thought they didn't work after I turned on the F Keys under the Keyboard & Mouse window. So, I thought I would post this to help anyone else that did this.
They now work, yea!!!!
Sometimes we solve our own problems quite well
I believe that Leopard does reset to the default F keys.
