What are the chances on installing Windows 8 pro on mac?

Hi guys, i just wanna know if what are the chances on installing a windows 8 pro on mac?
I just bought a CD of windows 8 pro. Im planning to use it on my mac because i am currently studying a software which is applicable on windows such as Visual Studio 2008, 2010 or 2012.
I am planning to use bootcamp for windows 8 pro, i dont like to use parallels or vm.
and i heard about bootcamp doesnt support windows 8, is that true?
If it is true, so does it means it is not possible to use windows 8 using bootcamp?
Am i right that bootcamp offers the drivers or something?
Or can i just update the drivers for windows manually, u know the thing which u can found it on control panel on windows.

Running Windows 8 on my iMac right now buddy. You don't actually need Bootcamp to do all the heavy work for you - it's just a parition tool. However, you will need Bootcamp tools once Windows is installed to get the most out of windows. Without the Bootcamp tools installed, Windows will run - your mouse and keyboard should also work, but the resolution, graphics, speed.etc will all be a little over the place. I used Bootcamp tools 3.0 as it came with my iMac, not sure if the latest 4.0 works...
Boot Camp 5.1 is the latest version, but no version includes drivers for Windows 8.

HT3986 what is the risk to install windows 7 on mac book pro?

what is the risk to install windows 7 on mac book pro?

If you have back ups and follow apples instructions on using bootcamp assistant to install Win7, there is no risk.
If you choose not to follow the instructions apple provides and have no back ups well then there is high risk of dissapointment.
Just follow the instructions and you should be fine.
Good luck.
Edit: Here's a link to the install instructions. Just choose the one for "Lion OSX". Should be the first one on the list.

What are the steps to install Windows 8.1 on my Macbook Pro w/retina using VMware?

I have never attempted anything like this so I'm being (overly) cautious. I already have vmware installed. Do I need Windows 7? 8.1? 32 or 64 bit? SO many questions and I can't find the answers on Windows or vmware's sites.

There are 2 ways to use Windows with Fusion. You can either install it directly as a Virtual Machine, or you can install it as a Boot Camp parttion and you will have the option of using it with Fusion or booting directy into Windows. I prefer to do it the latter way.
If you install Windows within Fusion directly once you open Fusion
1. Select "New" from the File menu.
2. Double Click on Install from Disk or Image
3. If your using a DVD it will show in the next Window, or if you are using an ISO click on "Use another disc image..." and locate the image
4, Click Continue and then follow the prompts through installation.
If you want to Install Windows via Bootcamp, you should use the Bootcamp assistant. You will need the Windows DVD or disc image, and an 8GB flash drive. Just run the assistant and follow the prompts. Once Windows is installed, run Fusion and then:
1. Select "New" from the File menu.
2. Click on More Options...
3. Click on Install from Boot Camp
4. Click Continue and then follow the prompts to setup your Boot Camp partition to be used in Fusion.

My MacBook Pro can't turn on again and apple said that the hard drive was broken. What are the chances of apple recovering my files on target disk?

Okay basically my MacBook Pro won't turn on. It has a spinning loading sign and a bar that won't complete at the bottom. Rang apple said take it into the apple shop and they will try target disk. What is that exactly and what are the chances my photos and files can be recovered. I would go to the shop but I'm on vacation. Help would be appreciated thanks.

This defines Target Disk Mode:

Though not guaranteed, the chances are good that the data can be recovered.

My ipad mini was stolen and i have activated the find my phone to lock it. how can i get the serial number off my itunes or icloud profile? and what are the chances that the find my iphone app works when someome erases the device?

my ipad mini has been stolen and i have activated the find my iphone to lock. now it is only a wifi device so what are the chances that a person can get hold of it and log onto wifi without the password of my device to unlock. does that not make the app rather less useful as i have to hope that the person is apt enough to log onto the internet but not enough to erase it and start afresh. is it possible to find my device even afte someone has erased it?

"Losing your iPhone feels lousy. Thankfully, iCloud can help you get it back. But if it looks like that’s not going to happen, new Find My iPhone features in iOS 7 make it harder for anyone who’s not you to use or sell your device. Now turning off Find My iPhone or erasing your device requires your Apple ID and password. Find My iPhone can also continue to display a custom message, even after your device is erased. And your Apple ID and password are required before anyone can reactivate it."

What are the chances of an N95 Classic Firmware Up...

Guys,
Do you think Nokia will continue to support the N95 now that the 8gb version is out? I'm stuck with the phone based on contract and I'm hoping that at least we'll get a hot new firmware.
What are the chances that they'll release a significantly updated firmware that possibly will free more memory or add that dynamic memory handling of the new software so this thing can be a reliable Ngage gaming device?

one can be optimistic, and one can be realistic. One can observe the history of Nokia support and draw a conclusion and that would not be an optimistic conclusion. There are plenty of people who have contracts for phones that got a single upgrade if they were lucky. N95 has already had more than that (3?) with the last one dated 5 months ago. The cell phones that get updated are usually not 6 months between updates so every day that passes is like a nail in the coffin. So Nokia has moved on to N95 8GB. Contract has nothing to do with getting Nokia to upgrade firmware however badly it may be needed, contract is about making money for the phone company. The N95 8GB can just as well be called an N95 "i" version, they just didn't name it that. that means N95 "Classic" very likely "left in the dust" as a previous post articulately stated. When I say the I think the chance is zero, it is based on Nokia support history which is woeful

What are the limits of using windows internal database in RMS?

hi,
We dont have SQL server to use and opting to use windows internal database
What are the limits of using windows internal database in RMS?
tnx

Hi,
the main limitation is that you cannot access a SQL express from remote (even there are tricks to work around that), so you cannot add another machine to the RMS cluster.
Microsoft's recommendation for production systems is to use a full SQL server, what allows you clustering and running all sorts of maintenance tasks.
Other than that SQL Express has a 10GB total limitation for all databases running on that server.
See also http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd772673(v=WS.10).aspx for RMS hardware and software requirements.
Hope that helps,

What are the chances of this thing actually working?

Hey there, over the next few sentences you'll probably be thinking I'm a hobo or something but whatever. I found an iPhone on the footpath today and it was kinda wet from inside. When I got it home and took it apart to see how much water was inside, there wasn't that much, a bit damp though. My dad dried it off with a blow dryer (Yeah I know, he isn't great with electronics) and cracked the screen right between the middle trying to open it up. I chargered it a little and I could faintly see the Apple logo. The screen went black shortly after and I couldn't do anything. Sometimes I can see something that looks like a USB plug but it was hard to tell. Any of the computers with iTunes in my house don't recognize the phone. The screen might turn into the Matrix's code (you know, all the green numbers lined up?) if you looked at it from real far and had sunglasses on.
I think it's an Iphone 3G, so what are the chances of this thing actually working? Is it completely busted, would it be worth taking it to get repaired, selling it for spare parts or just throwing the thing away?

It doesn't belong to you. Turn it in to the police.

I'd say pretty good if you get the same results shown in the picture below, when entering your Telephone Number into the BT Infinity site. Note the BT site is down for maintenance at the moment.
Or try this checker https://www.btwholesale.com/includes/adsl/main.html. And you get a similar result as below.-
"Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 26.6Mbps and upstream line speed of 11.1Mbps."

What are the chances of me recovering my stolen iphone 4s?

My iphone 4S was stolen tonight in San Francisco. I have a UK phone number and UK SIM card. My iphone is unlocked. What are the chances of me recovering my phone? I've reported it to the police and I've access the find phone app to notify me when found (using my mom's cell phone and my email).

Unfortunately, your chances of recovery are poor, at best. Most thieves know to turn an iPhone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it. This defeats Find My Phone, making recovery almost impossible. Unless the police catch the thief, & match the IMEI number, doubtful you'll ever see the phone again.

HT4436 what are the advantages of shifting from @me and @mac to @icloud?

what are the advantages of shifting from @me and @mac to @icloud?

probably no advantage, just Apple policy.
I do not know are @mac users still have their e-mail addresses valid, however, @me works in parallel with @icloud and there is no difference which one you use. At least for the moment.

What are the chances that an actual timestamp will be added to the Canon XF200 ?

I shoot depositions for a living and a timestamp is required sometimes. I upgraded to the XF200 from the XHA1s. the XHA1s had a timestamp so i assumed the XF200 would as well. I saw inthe manual that the time and date could be displayed so I bought the camera. you have to manually turn off all displays except the date and time. This works as long as you dont have to change your aperture, wb, or other settings. When you change any of these the display pops up and is also recorded. I'm just wondering why Canon would get rid of the timestamp. I asked if they could add it using a firmware update but all they said was that enough people need to ask for it. What is enough?

"What are the odds that my hard drive will be salvageable?"
Very very good, it's all sealed and only a large electrical surge or dropping it while running could do some damage.
Take it and use a SATA to USB adapter you can get online for $12-$40 and hook it right up to the new Mac and use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to transfer files.
OR you can access the drive directly and on a PC with MacDrive installed.
However the Mac itself is likley a goner.
