Problem installing CC on the PC side of a mini Mac

Hi,
My employer has two computers that only I work on. One is an iMac using the Mac OS and the other is a miniMac using Parallels8 where I use the PC side.
This is a security measure that my employer insists on since we cannot afford to have any productivity downtime in the event that one of the machines fail.
CC works perfectly fine on the iMac's OS, but when I went to install it on the PC side of the miniMac it simply won't allow me to and keeps brining up the message: "Download error. Please contact customer support."
I have contacted customer support and they were unable to help me, and pointed me in the direction of these forums.
Our user licence should allow us to have CC installed simultaneously on both the PC side and Mac side.
Any workable solutions I can implement would be much appreciated.

Hi Supas33k3r,
This document explains Adobe's support boundaries for virtual environments http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/technical-support-boundaries-virtualized-or.html
Would installing Windows through Bootcamp be an option on your Mac rather than going through Parallels?

DRDA is installed just on the Oracle side?

After reading this I still dont get it...
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/gateways.102/b16217/intro.htm#i3621
This documentation does not get to the point at all. It is not written at a level for people who have never installed a Transparent Gateway...
So, If I install the DRDA type Transparent Gateway I'm hoping I only have to put software on the Oracle side - my side? Not the DB2 side? I saw via someone else's post where during DRDA setup a package is created on DB2 side by issuing commands on the Oracle side?
If this is true, which I hope it is, why and what benefit is obtained by installing the other type of gateway Transparent Gateway for DB2 (TD4DB2) which requires installation of software on both sides - I think?
I would like to only have to install software on the Oracle side since the DB2 machine is not owned by us and all we will have is a user account on the DB2 side.
Give me few quick pointers please.. Thanks...

The DRDA Gateway software is only installed on the the Oracle server machine (or a 3rd machine).
There are several notes on Metalink "How to setup TG4DRDA" which explain in detail WHAT steps are required to configure the gateway.
Regarding the Bind package: at the Db2 database the 2PC table must be created and then use SQL*Plus to bind a package at the Db2 side.
This is mandatory for the DRDA gateway, but I want to make it clear again: NO software is installed on the DB2 machine.
So the difference between the TG4DB2/400 and TG4DRDA is the location of the software.
TG4DRDA is installed on Unix or Windows platforms, commonly in the Oracle database home whereas TG4DB2/400 is installed on the AS400 machine.

The left side of my mini ipad is dead. The left side is unresponsive to touch. How can I fix this issue without going having my device replaced?

Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.

Problems installing Tiger on the Beige G3

I have a rev A Beige G3 with a sonnet 500MHz G4 upgrade, a pioneer DVD RW drive and the original 6gb hard drive.
I am trying to install tiger, but I'm having problems. I can insert the disk and it will show up fine on the OS9.2 desktop, but when I launch XPostFacto 4.1, it says that the symbolic links to /etc, /tmp and /var and missing or damaged. But the DVD works fine in OSX 10.0 on the beige, and in 10.4 on a Sawtooth.
I would have tried using Jaguar to run XPostFacto, but I have too many problems with the monitor switching off during the installation, so I decided not to bother.
Does anyone know what I should do?
Thanks
Steve

i got tiger running almost 100% but not quite cause tiger refuses to work right with my pioneer dvr-110D. other than that tiger is running great. i had to do the video black out fix for 10.2.8 for tiger cause tiger would do the same thing.
sorry for not having a quick link to the fix cause im on my other Beige G3 AIO and i dont have it bookmarked.
what i did was get tiger 10.4 installed, then proformed the fix and rebooted and the onboard video didnt come on. this is where a second video card comes in handy ( wich i have a Radeon 7000 i use as main screen. then i installed the 10.4.7 update and rebooted and the onboard video started to work again and all has been well since with the video.
now the pioneer DVR-110D drive didnt work hardly at all in 10.4 or 10.4.7 it would not mount unless i booted with a disk in the drive. but still then even tho it was mounted it would not work or play dvd movies or audio cd's or burn disk's.
i updated to 10.4.8 and the drive will still not mount unless i boot with a disk in the drive. but when a disk is mounted it will play dvd movies and audio cd's but it still wont burn disk's ( some times it will burn half way but fail) and some times will stop working during dvd movie playback and audio cd playback.
now in OS 9.2.2 with the modded Pioneercdr authoring extention i can burn disk's with iTunes and the built in burn program. and will burn flawlessly with toast titanium. the drive also worked great in OS X 10.2.- 10.2.8 and have burn ability with patchburn installed
tiger on the other hand will not play nice with my drive. but other than that tiger run's great on my system. the spec's of my system are in my sig

Does anyone have problems installing CS6 Master Suite from a DVD on a Mac?

I'm trying to install the CS6 Master Suite on a mac that has OS X Moutain Lion on it. I keep getting an error message that the software can't be verified and that it may be counterfeit. I purchased the DVD from Adobe directly and it appears to have the proper paper work that signifies that it is a legal copy. I have been in contact with tech support and they tried to help but it didn't work. Also, Adobe certified the serial number so there isn't anything wrong with it. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks for the response. The only problem that I have with downloading the trial is that A) I have DSL internet connection and it is extremely slow when downloading such a large file. That is why I opted to get the DVD. Because my optical drive kept spitting out the DVD, it has a few scratches on it. Will this create problems if this problem is corrected in the future? Should I request a new DVD? Also, B) there are features in the Master Suite that are not included with the trial download. Once I have most of the other programs downloaded and installed, how can I get the other features in the full version of the Master Suite that are not included in the trial?

I'm installing Firefox for the very first time on my MAC which has the latest Lion OS X. After clicking on Download, nothing happened, then I tried again and same thing. Is there a bug with LION OS X?

Has anyone had a problem downloading Firefox 7.0 for the first time on a MAC that runs using Lion OS X?

Do you mean the install button stays on install, or do you notice a loading bar under your Launchpad icon?
This may help...

I need the internet explorer for my mini mac, is there any compatible to install?

There is a program at work that i need to use the internet explorer to access, but the mini mac is not compatible. Is there a way to intall a compatible Internet explorer into a Mini Mac

There are two possibilities here:
1) The program needs windows AND it needs internet explorer in order to interface with the pieces of windows that it needs. Normally a browser forms a application environment which stuff runs inside, and well-behaved applications will run pretty much in any browser on any operating system. But microsoft has other things that they have put into Internet Explorer that allow you to go THROUGH the browser and into the windows operating system below it.
2) The program has only been tested in Internet Explorer on Windows, and so that's all anyone will vouch for, but it will run just fine in other browsers and other operating systems.
If it is situation #1, then the only way to run the application is to run windows AND IE. This can be done on another computer running windows, by creating a BootCamp partition and buying and installing windows on it, or by buying and installing vmware or parallels and buying and installing a windows virtual machine on it.
If it is situation #2, what is necessary is experimentation. Try to load the application url in various and sundry browsers and various and sundry versions of those browsers on your mac. If you find a configuration that works, you can then lord it over the ignorant people who told you that it requires I.E.
Just a note if it DOES really require windows and I.E., which is that it may require some particular version or versions of windows and/or I.E. In our case, the Crystal Reports ActiveX Viewer will not load in windows 7 if running in a non-Administrator account. And our bank's online banking software won't run on I.E. 9 or 10. (I've got to watch windows update like a hawk to untick the I.E. 9 update.)

Unalbe to get the APPS store on my mini mac!

I have a Mini Mac that says I have the most up to date software version but the APPS store doesn't appear under the Apple logo in the menu. Therefore I cannot download the store. The mac was purchased in the US but I'm currently in India. Any ideas how to solve this probelm?

The app store won't be on your Mini because you need to have 10.6.8 installed for it to show up. And, you can only download Lion if you have Snow Leopard (10.6.8) installed - you can buy that for $29 from Apple or online resellers. Install that, update it via Softrware Update and then you can get Lion if your Mini meets the system requirements: minimum Core 2 Duo and 2 GB RAM (that is an absolute minimum, 4 GB would be better.
And, if you've purchased apps from the app store, you can also use them on another Mac; however, their versions may not work on your older Mini so you need to be careful. You could try one and observe if it throws a fit or causes problems.

Has anyone else had problems installing drivers for the Canon MF4570dn?

I recently purchased a Canon MF4570dn multifunction printer, to be installed on my network at home. It works very nicely with my wife's Windows 7 box.
On the other hand, I cannot install the driver software on either of my Macs (iMac i7 running 10.6.8 or G4 running 10.4.11). The installer fails when it gets to the point of running its internal scripts, and provides a proposed "solution" of "Call the software provider."
Canon technical support is unable to help. I have reset printers in the system preferences, I have downloaded the installer package multiple times from their web site, I have repaired permissions, all to no effect. Their final suggestion is "Call Apple Technical Support and have them perform a 'profile reset'." (I've never heard of such a thing, in 27.5 years of owning Macintoshes. Has anyone else????)
So my question is this: If you have one of these on your system, did you have any issues getting the drivers installed? If so, how did you overcome them?
Thanks,
Rich Alderson

More negative feedback on these Canon MF4570dn devices elsewhere on the support boards. Buyer beware!

Problem installing iBooks on the original iPad

Hi!
I have three apple products in the house: an old original iPad, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5s.
The original iPad is on iOS 5.1.1 - there is no support of a newer version of iOS for this product. I was particularly using this device for reading, with tons of books loaded in iBooks.
Yesterday the device (itself) decided to update the iBooks app but was stuck in the middle. I had to delete the app and tried to reinstall it anew from the AppStore. However the version currently available at the AppStore won't install, telling that I need to update to iOS 7 (which is not available for this device).
Is there a way to install an older version of iBooks on the original iPad?
Thank you.

Yes, there is a way to download iBooks to your original iPad. Last October, Apple quietly came up with a way. Follow these simple steps.
Open iTunes on your computer
Go to the App Store and download iBooks to your iTunes librarry
No, go to your iPad. Tap the purchased tab in the App Store
You should see iBooks with a cloud icon next to it
Tap the cloud and you will be given the option of downloading a version for a lower iOS version

Internet only works on the windows side of my bootcamped mac

I have a bootcamped 2012 macbook pro running os x 10.8.5. My issue is it says that I'm connected to the internet but everything that requires internet will not load. Web pages go about 20% of the way before it stops. This is occurring on any wifi I try to connect to, not just my home internet. I have ran diagnostics as well and it tells me nothing is wrong. When I switch over to windows 8 everything works perfectly fine. I can't figure out what the problem could be.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
