Running 2 operating systems...in trouble
hello all...
have been using 10.4, and just got a copy of 10.5. was worried about compatibility issues with my software, so i chose to install 10.5 on my 2nd HD, just to give it a test run. i previously had 10.3 there to boot up with, if something went wrong on my 1st HD. i switched between the 2 by restarting & holding down the option key. this brought up a window with all my possible startup operating systems. so...i upgraded from 10.3 to 10.5 on the 2nd HD....booted up in 10.5 to see if the install went well, and now, for some reason, i cant get back to 10.4 on my 1st HD. holding down option while restarting brings up that window again...only the watch icon spins, never letting me choose a startup disk. i then reinstalled 10.3 on HD 2, and still i am locked out of HD 1-10.4. anyone know what i can do to get back home...
thanks!
hb
ah ha!
startup disc in preferences...
phew!

Hi there
I got the following message when trying to install Photoshop CC, "You are running an operating system that Photoshop no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements for a full list of supported platforms."
I use Windows Vista so not sure what I need to do now! Any help would be much appreciated thanks.Photoshop CC only runs on Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1. Not Vista.

Is it possible to run an operating system from an external hard drive?
Really weird question here, but I've always wanted to know this. I have a MBP 13" mid-2012 and I installed a 256GB SSD. I currently have OSX 10.9 and Windows 8.1 installed on the drive, but is it possible to actually run an operating system from an external hard drive. I don't want to install anymore operating systems onto the internal SSD because I don't want to run out of space. So, I'm wondering can I install Linux on an external hard drive, the same way I would on an internal hard drive and just plug it in via USB 3 or Thunderbolt? Is it actually possible to use a computer this way? I know I can boot from a usb stick, so is it possible to actually use a computer with an operating system installed in an external hard drive?
windows don't support being installed on usb mass storage installs like usb

Is it best to run Windows 7 in Boot Camp, or would it be better to use VMWare Fusion or similar? I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core 2 Duo (OSX 10.6.8) and I also have a Dell laptop solely because one program that I need to use for work is only available for Windows. I would love to consolidate to my mac but am afraid installing Windows will ruin it!
It all depends on what your useage of Windows will be, for playing games install it in BootCamp, for word processing, spreadsheets, email. browsing etc a virtual Machne will be fine. -
Im trying to download photoshop as my first app with creative cloud and i keep getting this message , "You are running an operating system that Photoshop no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements for a full list of supported platforms."
You mention both Illustrator and Photoshop so it is not clear which you mean. The message means you need to review the operating system requirements information on the following pages to see if your machine falls short of the requirements.

You are running an operating system that Dreamweaver no longer supports. so i cannot download a trial version i am operating vista windows, how can i get this trial version
thanksYou CAN find downloads of older trials here: http://prodesigntools.com/tag/ddl
You need to follow their instructions VERY CAREFULLY and completely, or the links don't work.
Of course, without a valid product key (which Adobe doesn't sell anymore, except for CS6 - maybe) you can only use them for 30 days. -
