The Sims for the mac
Has anybody got the sims for the imac? I came across the sims on ebay and didnt realise they did them for the mac as well. Can anyone tell me a) how good it is (I had the pc version) and b) does it slow your computer down? Im a bit dubious when adding software to new computers!!
I had a lot of trouble with SimCity4 on my iMac. It became such a headache that I returned it to compUSA. It ran very choppy and crashed repeatedly when the city began to develop. My system FAR exceeds the system requirements for the game, and after some online research I discovered that I am not the only person to have this trouble with SimCity running on 10.4. I have also read problems concerning the SIMS2. Some of what I have read indicates that 10.3 runs the games fine, but 10.4 causes them to crash. I don't know if this is the case, but I do know that I am now very weary before dropping $50 on a game that may not perform on my computer as it claims to on the box. Some people trying to run games are talking about waiting for Mac OS updates that will allow them to run smoother.
I would check out what gamers are saying before buying anything

This is random, but does anyone know how to download (free) The Sims for macs? I know you can easily download it for PCs on limewire, but I couldn't find it for macs. Has anybody done this?
Thanks!!Well, if that's the question, then the answer appears to be that there is no demo for Mac presently available. The foregoing seems to be confirmed by the fact that when I looked on the Apple/Games Demo site, I couldn't find it there.

The link to system requirements for Firefox 4 beta takes you to a page that gives you the requirements for Firefox 3.6 instead. I assume that the requirements for the beta are different as I can't seem to install the beta on my Macs. Where can I find the beta system requirements?
I never expected Mozilla to neglect the users of Apple's PowerPC (PPC) computers, while still supporting much older operating environments such as Windows XP. So, I should just throw away a $6,000 system, which is still fast and functional, and contribute masses of heavy metals to land-fills because…?
I'm hurt and confused after supporting Firefox for many years — installing and using it not only on my own computers but on most of my customers' computers. Now I have to tell my customers with PPC Macs they can't have a secure cross-platform browsing experience from Mozilla. They'll have to learn to use some other browser, or buy a new computer.
If one doesn't buy a new computer every year, one doesn't deserve Firefox 4. This is sort of sounding more like a Microsoft™© doctrine. (But wait, I can still have Firefox 4 on a ''SERIOUSLY CRAPPY WINDBLOWS XP pile of rubbish?!'') Please open your eyes Mozilla. This just doesn't make sense. -

Where can I buy a nano sim for the new iPhone 5
Hi all,
I have just ordered a new iPhone 5 from the apple website and it comes as an unlocked phone. Therefore I need to buy a new 'nano sim' to fit the new phone.
Does anyone know where and how I go about doing this?
I've seen that vodaphone have apparently got 500,000 of these new Nano sims in stock, but are they only for people who have bought the phone through them?
Do you know any other networks or providers that are selling the nano sim, even if you haven't purchased the phone from them?
Any advice or tips would be much appreiciated.
Many thanks
ChrisEthmoid

Which is why in the UK it is not really worth purchasing an iPhone directly from Apple - it's a no brainer. You should always purchase through the phone companies themselves and you'll get a much better deal always.
I have been with 02 on a contract since I had my first iPhone and have always upgraded for less than half the cost of the iPhone directly from Apple.
I really don't understand why someone would want to spend at least £525 to £600 on a phone from Apple when you could get it for less than half the cost with the UK phone companies, unless of course money is no object!
Where do you get your information from? -

I have a mid 2011 27 inch iMac and a late 2012 mac mini. I am using the 27 inch iMac as the display for the mac mini with a thunderbolt cable. I was trying to use bootcamp on the mini but after I started downloading windows I can't get it to display on the iMac.
Hi there,
The simplest way is to drag it across wirelessly using the 'Airdrop' application once both computers are near one another. 'Airdrop' can be found near the top, on the left hand side menu, within 'Finder'.

I want to upgrade my 2008 Mac pro to the latest one, will it meet the requirement for the future Software that's coming out for the next four years?.
I'd wait. What can't you do that you need? You mean you want to buy a new model, then why not wait for an actual new one, not the two year old 5,1, when you need to and have outgrown.
Yours will run Mountain Lion. yours is 4 yrs old and still supported and has life left. -
I have "The Sims" suite (The Sims, Livin Large, House Party, Hot Date, and Unleashed). During the original installation, I could not get teh third disk to install (House Party). I definitely installed them in the correct order. Then, I went on to load the last two CDs, but when I install the last CD, to begin play, the game locks my system downafter the preview.
I sent the entire Application to the trash (I'm assuming installing this in the Applications section of teh HD is correct), and tried to re-install. Now, the initial Installer on The Sims primary CD will not respond. I have to force quit to unlock the install.
I have an iMac with the 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, with 4 GB Memory (4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3).
Can you tell me if I'm doing something wrong, or if my system does not have enough memory to handle this program? I already have The Sims 2 and 3 with several expansion packs installed - never had a problem operating or installing them. I still have at least 50% of my internal memory available.
Thanks,
