Virtual PC V2.1.1 onto Mac OS 9.1

I have a mac running OS 9.1 and I would like to install Virtual PC 2.1.1 on it. The problem that I am having is that after I have installed VPC and open it and all that happens is that the programme opens with a black screen. I have tried clicking on the drop down menus but it appears that the programme has kind of frozen and the only way out is to force quit it.
What am I doing wrong and how can I make it work?

VirtualPC 2.1.1 is too old for 9.1. It was good for Mac OS 7.6 and 8 as I remember. You need version 3.0 to 5.0 to run on 9.1.

    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
    Try trashing them in Safe Mode, reply if that doesn't help.

  • Help installing PSE10/Premier onto Mac from PC without software CD

    Help installing PSE10/Premier onto Mac from PC without software CD.  I can't find my software box anywhere..... Is there a way to locate my serial number within the programs?  AND how can I download the programs from your site- all I see are downloads for the new PSE 11.

    You really need the DVD box which also has the serial numbers on the back. If you registered the product you can get the serial numbers by logging-in to My Adobe but that's not much help as only the current version 11 is available for download.

  • Trying to install adobe flash player onto mac using internet explorer 5.2 for mac.

    Trying to install adobe flash player onto mac using internet explorer 5.2 for mac.  But the page that I need keeps telling me that Adobe Flash Player still needs to be installed.  I've downloaded AFP several times, and I see it installed correctly on my mac, but the same error message keeps coming up.  All of the support that I see is either for mac or for Internet Explorer, but not for both and not for the version of Internet Explorer that I am using.  Please help.  Thank you.

    Wow, IE for Mac is pretty old.  What Mac OS are you using?  I'm 99% sure you're going to need an older version of the Player, but I'll need to know the OS version to figure out which one.

    Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.

  • I have recently upgraded my mac and ipad to IOS7 and find that Safari will not load onto my iPad. It just shuts down the app. Any ideas? I have been onto Mac who took me through a very long iPad robot, but the problem is still the same! Help appreciated

    Do you mean that you did a soft-reset ?
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
    If that doesn't fix it then try closing Safari via the iPad's multitaskingbar and see if it works when you re-open it :double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag the Safari app's 'screen' up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    After trying the above you could also do a soft-reset (even if this is what you've already done it might be worth trying after clearing Safari's cache and closing the app via the taskbar) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Trouble installing virtual PC onto Mac OS X v10.4.10

    i'm not very tech savvy, but...here's the best i can describe my problem.
    i'm currently using an iMac OS X v10.4.10 and i'm trying to install the program Virtual PC, which allows me to run windows programs on the Mac computer. even when the first part of the installation process is successful, there is an error message that tells me that the program cannot run. i've checked all the system requirements and i have everything required; my office mac program installed just fine, but for some reason Virtual PC won't.
    i've read somewhere that Virtual PC cannot work with an intel mac, is this true? my mac currently runs on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. is this the reason why Virtual PC cannot open to finish installation?

    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak 2 or Vista. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, or Vista Ultimate. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, or Vista Ultimate. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system.

  • Photo Stream not working on Windows in a Virtual Machine, but not on my Mac

    Hi there,
    since yesterday I tried to connect to Photo Stream with my Mac, but I can't. It works fine in my Windows 7 Virtual Machine with the iCloud software, it works fine on my iPhone 4S. The iCloud System Status suggests that all services work just fine.
    However, as soon as I try to activate Photo Stream in iPhoto 9.2 (626) (App Store version, confirmed latest version) or Aperture 3.2 (non App Store version, confirmed latest version), I am presented with the message, which roughly translates to "Activating Photostream... iPhoto couldn't connect to Photostream", with an "Abort" button as the only option.
    All other iCloud features work perfectly fine for me. Any suggestiosn?
    Thanks!

    confirm that it is activated in icloud preference pane ( System-Settings ) like this :

  • Itunes music on external drive - how to get it back onto mac.

    hi - some time ago I transferred my growing itunes library to an external hard drive. The database remained on the mac. My mac was an old powerpc imac. So far no problem. Things moved on and I have just bought a new imac i3 etc. I would now like to transfer my itunes content to the new mac as it has loads of space. Alternatively I would be happy to keep the music on the external drive. I transferred the contents of the old mac to the new mac without any difficulty. The database on itunes arrived seemlessly on the new mac. I plugged in the external hard drive and nothing worked. I had forgotten that the old mac was power pc and the new mac was of course intel.
    My question is now, how do I get the library on the external drive back onto my old mac so that I can transfer it to the new mac? Any ideas. I am sure it is simple, but am not the best on computers. I can follow instructions.

    will make sure both machine are running the same version and try again
    again, the version shouldn't matter - the worst that could happen is that the newer version would need to update the library (which may take a while).
    if you still have access the the PPC, try copying its iTunes folder once more to the intel. you can use a thumb drive or connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in _*Target Disk Mode*_, and copy the entire iTunes folder from <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    connect the external to the intel and wait for it to mount, then launch iTunes.
    what happens ?

  • Clone Mac Book hard drive onto Mac Mini

    Hi All,
    I own a 2009 MacBook Pro and have very recently bought a Mac Mini.
    I would like to clone the MacBook Pro's hard drive onto the Mac Mini, so that, when switching it on, the Mini is an exact replicate of the MacBook Pro, including all content, software and other bits.
    I own an external hard drive that is large enough to contain all of the MacBook Pro's data.
    Could someone help me in describing the detailed procedure for me to clone the drive as desired?
    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, this will not work as you won't be able to boot the Mini because Macs cannot boot from an OS version older than what they came with (I assume the Mini is running Mountain Lion or mavericks?). You can, however, transfer your files, etc.
    FWIW, please update your profile: you are not running iOS on the Mini as iOS is for iDevices, not computers.
