To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports Intel VT-x or AMD-V.

To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports Intel VT-x or AMD-V. ?

VMWare ESXi should support Lion and Mountain Lion, both in terms of it having been done and beeing allowed by Apple's license.
Note: Apple's license only allows hosting two virtual OS X machines on a single host.
In addition to ESXi, there is also Parallels Server for Mac Bare Metal Edition. See http://www.parallels.com/uk/products/server/mac/baremetal/technical-resources/ I merely mention it for completeness, I would stick to ESXi since it is 'free'.
You could consider running OS X as the host operating system and Windows as a guest VM using VirtualBox. VirtualBox can be configured to start automatically and invisibly on the Mac host. You could then use Microsoft RDP to connect to the running VM. Its services like SQL Server would of course be running and accessible as normal.

    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Application Support/Conduit/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader 
    Click Go then move the Conduit/Library/InputManagers/CTloader file to the Trash.
    The same for /Library/Receipts and /Library/Application Support

  • I have pages version 2.1 for the i pad. When I try to open pages documents on my mac it says You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. I have updated to the very latest Pages for mac version 4.3. Cant figure it out.

    I have Pages version 2.1 for the i-pad. I have Pages on my Macbook, version 4.3. When I try to ipen a doc on my Mac it says I need a newer version to open this doc. There is no newer version. I need these docs in a bad way and cant get to them on the Mac. Any ideas?

    IOS Pages 2.0 and 2.1 implement an entirely incompatible document format with Pages ’09 v4.3. It cannot open them, and you are then prompted to update to Pages v5+ which is compatible with your IOS Pages.
    Unfortunately, updating to Pages v5+ is a bad thing, as it is a brand new application that has omitted over 90+ features from Pages ’09 v4.3. When you update to Pages v5+, it will move your old still functional version of the earlier Pages into /Applications/iWork. Aside from all the missing functionality, Pages v5+ will likely damage older documents that depend on specific Pages ’09 v4.3 features (including AppleScript and custom Templates).
    Oh, by the way, the older and new Pages documents have the same filename extension (.pages) making document organization difficult without applying different tag colors to old and new documents.
    We are recommending that users remain on their earlier Pages version. You may have to export documents from IOS Pages as Word .docx to avoid the OS X Pages update notice.

  • Cant get my pages docs that I created on my iPad (new version of pages) to open on my MAC.  Reads: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document.". But I have the latest!

    Help - I cant get the docs I created in pages on my ipad to open on my MAC. I've used iCloud, emailed to myself - all I get is "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document.".  But my MAC has the newer version!

    I have Pages for iOS 2.0.1 on my iPad and Pages '09 (4.3) on my Macbook Pro.
    I haven't upgraded anything in the past few months. Still on OS 10.8.5.
    Suddenly, something has changed.
    If I open a new Pages doc on my iPad and later try to open it on my Mac, I get the error message saying I need a newer version of Pages.
    Also, if I open an existing doc on the iPad (one that I've worked on repeatedly from both devices) I get the same message. A couple did open, but only if I hadn't touched them on the iPad. Anything opened today on the iPad won't open on the Mac.
    I can open and edit these docs in the Pages beta at www.icloud.com but not on my Mac.
    I don't want Mavericks and a new version of Pages now (I'm in the middle of a major project and have learned not to make major upgrades until major things are finished).
    For now, the best I can do is open docs in iCloud, copy all, and paste into a new Word doc. Yes, back to Word. Thought I was finished with Microsoft.
    Is there a better solution?

  • I am running Mac OS X and need to back up before installing Snow Leopard , can I back up to my Time Capsule?

    I am running Mac OS X currently and need to upgrade to Snow Leopard.  First I need to back up my computer.  I have a Time Capsule that automaticallyt backs up Snow Leopard and above but do not have Time Machine on this system.  How can I back up what I an currently running?

    Do I download these?  I am not particularly good at this, so any help would be great.  What I know now is that it is recommended to back up current comuter before installing snow leopard, but I have no idea how to do this.  I know I can go from 10.4.11 directly to Snow Leopard but am afraid I will lose data. 

  • HT4848 My old Mac G5 displays "You need to restart your Mac" + gray screen. Won't boot from any disc, no safe start, did PRAM reset... nothing. HELP!

    My old iMac G5 won't restart no matter what I try. I get "You must restart your mac" plus grey screen. I've reset PRAM, tried safe start, tried booting from original iMac discs.. all no good. This happened when I was deleting files in preparation for trading in at Best Buy. Anybody know what's going on?

    If you are really running a an "old Mac G5", then you have posted in the wrong Forum.. You have posted in the "Intel iMac Forum" by mistake.

  • Can you install the new lion software on more then one mac or do you need to bye it for every computor

    Three macs do I need to bye it three times.

    Yes, but each computer must be running Snow Leopard 10.6.7 or 10.6.8. Log onto the Mac App Store using the same Apple ID. Click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should see an Install button to the right of the Lion purchase in the list.
    If after you have downloaded Lion the first time you quit the installer instead of installing, then you can save the installer file to another drive as backup. You should find it in the Applications folder. Otherwise, the installer deletes itself automatically when finished installing.

  • XPS 8700 - need additional network card for VMware Workstation

    Hello -
    I'm wanting to add either a dual or quad network card to my XPS 8700 so I can provide physical interfaces for some VMware Workstaion.  Is there a specific band or model that is compatible..?
    I've tried installing a spare Intel E1G42ET (dual port) card I had laying around, but the OS never saw it even with the drivers from Intel's website loaded up.
    Any suggestions..?  Thanks,

    No - but it's just another card to the BIOS. Also, there's already a Wireless NIC and an Ethernet NIC in there.  I appreciate the suggestion - I can test it,. but suspect the issue will remain the same.
    Thanks,

  • Mac's don't need AntiVirus right?

    Mac's don't need AV right?! An AppleCare support rep allegedly talks: http://t.co/9BKa9zm

    The key take-away from the AppleCare rep's comment was, "many people are falling for this attack." (emphisis mine).
    There are also lots of people sending a "processing fee" to a Nigerian Prince, expecting to have "millions" wired into their bank account. Instead, their bank account is drained. People get conned every day--nothing new here.
    The key is that people are poorly educated and are being suckered. Partly because of their conception of needing anti-malware on Windows fueled by the nattering of the page-hit-hos.
    The sites that squeal like stuck pigs about this are hoping for some failure in Mac OS X security because it sickens them that we can be so smug about our choice in OS. They certainly don't help matters with their sensationalistic headlines. What they should be emphasizing is how easy someone can sucker you out of your money and how simple it is just to dismiss the scare-ware.
    Don't be stupid when surfing the net. You don't need anti-malware on your Mac, you just need to use your brain.
    If you wish to surf completely brain-dead, then pay someone to hold your hand in the form of Anti-malware software. Or, use the free stuff. However, there is no anti-malware out there that will prevent you from accepting the installation of malware by entering your admin password when some random scare page pops up on the screen.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

    Also, I am guessing as Logic only runs on MAC surely then they would not the best spec to recommend to run it?
    I see all the upgrades as additional memory or a faster process?
    Is a retina screen necessary, and why flash based storage against a 1TB hard drive, and a i5 instead of an i7
    The main reason for this purchase is to play live and use backing tracks and record found sounds and make creative songs.
    I hope you can provide some valuable feedback, as I am a longtime MAC user and see upgrades and changes happen regularly but the most important thing is the songs not the equipment.
    I have £500 already and willing to add another 500 to 700 pounds, then software extra.
