Versions of windows for imac intel 20"

Moving along toward our purchase of 4 iMacs 20" -- and of course more questions. Now they are saying we have to decide which version of Windows to get.
The question: "will the windows 64 bits work with the imac 20 with respect to drivers and such"
Any help will be appreciated. I want my new computer -- NOW!
Thanks!

Windows Vista
Thanks a lot -- I went in and read what I could find -- naturally, they say nothing about the iMacs -- are people using this as their PC system already?
Are there any problems using it on the intel 20" that we should know about?
Also, it says that it requires 1 gig ram -- if we're buying 2 gigs total for each computer, how does this affect speed, etc.? We're buying "parallels" so that it's easy to switch back and forth, which at least 3 of the computers will have to do on a regular basis (mine less, but still). If you're not actually using the PC side at any given minute, is it still using the ram, simply because it's "open"?
Thanks!

Need genealogy program for imac intel

I need genealogy program for new imac intel. My old program was for Apple G II S. Have viewed program called heredis mac x.2 but don't know if it is compatible for imac intel. All new territory for me. Thank you, Lisa

Though I don't have an Intel Mac, I use both Heredis and Reunion. You could check with each company about Intel compatibility.
I keep my file in both because the FH represents the greatest investment of time for anything on the computer. I want always to have a usable file so dont put all my eggs in one basket.
Reunion is a bit more versatile inrespect of the fundamental structures but Heredis uses a different basic construction which I wanted as a reserve. Heredis is about £20 less expensive here in UK than Reunion.
One specific thing about Heredis is that it stores the actual data file or files as documents in the user documents folder. You need to realise what these things are in said folder and not delete them by accident.
The down side of using two different programmes is that of synchronisation. If you add new data in one app you need to add it manually in the other. I would never trust it to GEDCOM transfer to transfer all fields correctly especially if you have data in the more esoteric fields of any particular programme.
Heredis has an ability to display a 3d tree showing all, I repeat all the relationships including the families of removed cousins etc rather like a complex organic molecule. It is zoomable and you can get text data displayed from any person box, any 'atom' ,to pursue the analogy. It has source and repository features just as good as the more expensive Reunion. It may be ruled out for some though. It has no tab to indicate the 'disposal' of a family member as being "abducted by aliens', whereas Reunion has!

Is there a virtual pc or Windows emulator for iMac intel duo?

Hi there,
I just got a new iMac intel duo last week and its fantastic. Unfornatuly I need to run a stock market program that only runs on windows...
This is the only program that i need to run on the windows platform.
I was told to get the intel duo as it was the way things were going and that I may have to wait for the software side of things to catch up.
I currently have a workaround that is painfull, but I would like to have it all on the one machine...
Is there a virtual pc version for the iMac intel duo or are there other emulators I could use??
Desparate..

Apple Wireless mouse and keyboard with Windows on iMac Intel

Hi there!
Is it possible to use the Apple Wireless mouse and keyboard on the iMac Intel running Windows XP?
My bluetooth setup assistant can't find any of them.
Thanks!

Actually if You Use the wireless mouse during the setup for windows it works fine the only drawback it that using the wireless mouse on windows is that it drains the battery more quickly than Mac OS X does. So make sure you have extra batteries around

What's the best quality and cheapest 1GB RAM seller for iMac Intel?

I am looking to buy a 1GB RAM chip for my iMac Intel. However, this can be very expensive when bought straight from Apple. Where else can I get 1GB of RAM for a cheap price that will give me the quality I am looking for?
iMac Intel Mac OS X (10.4.8) Currently have 512 MB RAM on iMac

Yes, you can successfully use a single 1Gb module. You can just as well add a second one that isn't matched. However, it should be very easy to match RAM modules without buying the second one from Apple. To be "matched" they must both be same speed, same size, same number of component chips on both sides.
Size is easy, both 1GB. Speed is easy, both PC2-5300 667MHz. Component chips - little black square or rectangular chips attached to one or both sides of the board. Count the number on each side of the board and duplicate that configuration and the two modules, one from Apple and one from xyz company, will be "matching" RAM. If there are 4 on the front and 4 on the back, buy another like that. If there are 8 on one side, and none on the other, buy another like that.

Can one upgrade the graphic card for Imac (intel based)?

can one upgrade the graphic card in an Imac (intel based)?

While anything is theoretically possible, you would need to find another GPU that is compatible with your specific model iMac, and you would need to modify OS X to use a driver appropriate for whatever you propose to install. Future OS X updates would break it in short order. Not only that, you'd void whatever warranty that remains. It's not worth it.

Download OLYMPUS MASTER 2 FOR IMAC intel

Making the switch from PC to Apple. My iMac Intel does not recognize the Olympus Master 2 DVD that does work on the PC. Is there a free complete download (not just an upgrade) for Olympus Master 2 that will work in my iMac Intel.

Try > Olympus Imaging Software - Olympus Master 2
If it is incompatible with 10.7, give iPhoto a try. > Apple - Support - iPhoto

Best 2nd monitor for iMac Intel 20"

A few months back I stumbled upon a great article comparing Apple and 3rd party monitors that could match up well with the iMac Intel 20".. of course I can't find it now that I'm using actually using this iMac. I'm curious to hear your experiences/views on 2nd monitors that match up well for this specific computer. Thanks

There is a MiniDVI output port on this iMac. Simply purchase one of the following adaptors and configure the dual display in Apple menu > System Preferences... > Displays. (The options appear when you connect the display):
Mini DVI - DVI
Mini DVI - VGA
Mini DVI - Composite/S-Video.
DVI will also certainly provide the best picture quality but the exact choice of display depends on your budget and intended usage. For example budget LCD displays are inappropriate for work that requires colour accuracy.
Your iMac will support displays with the following resolutions:
Digital resolutions up to 1920 x 1200.
Analogue resolutions up to 2045 x 1536

Which version of windows for parallels desktop

I have resisted for many years, but it looks like I am going to have to partition a mac mini to run parallels desktop so that my medical office can run Medicare Remit Easy Print (Windows only) software in my all Mac office.
What is the cheapest version of Windows that will work for this?
Thanks.

Check with the provider/developer of Medicare Remit Easy to see what version of Windows is required.
Also, you said you had to partition a "mac" to run Parallels. You do not partition to run Parallels. You install Parallels the install Windows in Parallels.

Which version of windows for new 09 white macbook?

Hi all-
I just bought the new 09- 13" white macbook. My wife needs some really basic MS office stuff- just word and excel- for her work so we're looking at buying some version of windows or office or something. I know with Bootcamp we can use windows, but I only want/need the most stripped down version I can get away with and still have word and excel.
What should I buy? I see Windows XP for under $100. Office for mac is more expensive. Again- just really need word and excel, so any opinions?
Thanks!
-Danny

For my 2 cents, Office for Mac is the "pits". Most of the reviews give the program high ratings, but my rant with the program is that the "learning curve" is more than I want deal with. I bought the program and every time I open it up, I have to hunt for menu items that I can find in a flash with the Windows version. The Word program is not as bad as the Excel program (which I find almost unusable). If you're going this route, I would strongly advise checking it out before shelling out cash. The Excel program definitely ***** IF you're transferring files back and forth from Windows.
After my experience, I went with Parallels 4.0 (virtual machine) and loaded Vista Home Premium. It runs fine, but I probably should have gone with XP. I'm running my '03 Office there and it works fine.
If you're willing to take on this learning curve with Windows for Mac, that's probably one of the cheapest ways to go. I think the Home version is around $75.

WWAN Support Update 1.0 how come no support for imac intel?

imac intel Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Agreed. I think it's pretty presumptuous of Apple to decide how we are going to use our computers.
Being able to use my U720 on the iMac would be quite handy in a number of situations. As it is, we're forced to use a router, (none of which support the U720 very well at this point)

OS X install disk for iMac Intel

My imac intel HD needs repair. I booted with the Install disk. Started Disk Untilies app. I can not use the mouse to select, verify/repair permission or verify/repair disk. I can not quit the app via the mouse, only with the keyboard. Dose anyone have an idea what is going on? And how can I repair the HD.

To answer your questions.
1 Yes, it is the wired mosuse that shipped with the iMac.
2 Within the Disk Utilities app, the mouse wwill not allow me to select "Permissions or Reair bottons. They are noe grayed ot out. Also, I can not quit the app via the mouse. If I choose any options from the menu that offers a dialog box with options, I can not select any options. I can only use the keyboards Return key to choose the default option.
3. I ahve considered the mouse as a source of the problem. But when I ran the "Verify Disk" from the Disk Utilities on the HD, I get several "Illegal Name" response.
4. Also, from the OSX installer disk, I can not go beyond the 1st Installer page. The mouse, point & click, will not work. But no problem with the mouse when booting from the HD.
This is verey odd. Is it a faulty DVD installer disk?? Have been a Apple user from 1982 and Mac user since 84, I guess I expected a better product.
