What is a good Mac OS X 10.6 emulator for Windows XP?

Preferably FREE.

Note that Apple's Software License Agreement (SLA) only allows using OSX on Apple branded hardware. So unless the "Windows PC" is a Mac with Windows in Boot Camp, what you're asking for is not allowed, so can't be discussed on these forums since that would be a violation of the Terms of Use of these forums. You'll have to go looking for "Hackintosh" info elsewhere.

Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows

Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows how can I download them with out the install cd?

Or for the same price you can order a new Snow Leopard disk. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
That would give you Boot Camp 3.0 drivers. With Snow Leopard and Boot Camp 3.0 you can install Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7. With Lion and Boot Camp 4.0 you can only install Windows 7. If you install Lion with Boot Camp 3 and XP or Vista already on it it will work.

eMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

My standard list of things to do first for these weird sort of problems. Keep in mind this list represents the programs I tend to use. I run Panther (OS 10.3.9). There are several alternate programs that do the same things with some combining the functions of some of the ones below. So everyone has their favorites, but here are mine...
Run MacJanitor (free download) to do all the Unix Cron Maintenance scripts.
Run Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities) and repair disk permissions on your start up drive (typically your internal drive). Also verify any other drives mounted on the system, especially any external drives that you use for iMovie and iDVD projects.
Run Preferential Treatment (free download) to check for corrupt/damaged application and system preference files.
Run Cache Out X (free download) to clear all system and application caches.
Reboot your Mac (after running Cache Out X you are given the option to restart the machine).

How difficult is it to load software on to a Mac running Lion that was written for Windows Xp,Vista. Can it be done without causing major issues.

I am interested in getting a medical simulation program but it is available for Windows only. Is it possible to run it on a Mac system?

You'll need to buy:
- a Windows emulator for Mac
- a version of Windows to run in the emulator
I dimly remember putting that stuff on my wife's computer several years ago & it's been fine.
Google: windows emulator macintosh
Macs used to come with their own Windows emulator, but you had to log off one OS & log on to the other one. Flipping back & forth was not good. A better approach allows you to flip between OSs like flipping between applications.
I seriously down if you can still buy Windows XP. Stay away from Vista. Windows 8 gets good press.

How does mackeeper 2012 work and its benefit? Is that same with Kaspersky for windows?

Good, be sure not to use their uninstaller, which can cause more havoc, use the instructions in my first link.
Real shame they can advertize this junk on most every Mac site!

How can I get Photoshop Elements 7 for Mac? (Have a license key for Windows from before)

Hi,
I have an installation CD for Photoshop Elements that I used on my old PC. I was satisfied and content with that product and as I got a new computer I wanted to use the program there. Here's to my problem:
I don't have a disk drive on the new computer and can therefore not install the program from disk. Second problem is that when I go online to find the program to download instead I realize that there's no version 7 for Mac, only for Windows if I understand it correctly?
I don't feel that I want to buy a new version just to get it working on my computer and I'll use iPhoto if it doesn't work to install. It would however be really nice if I would be able to use it.
Cheers

There never was a photoshop elements version 7 for mac os, only for windows.

Problem: I have a New Mac and my iPod is formatted for Windows

My old computer (PC with Windows) crashed and took all my music with it.
I got a new computer, a Mac. I have looked at many different programs for moving music from the iPod to the computer and many are appealing (Podworks and iRip). However, they do not seem to be working because my computer is not recognizing my iPod. I set my iPod into disk mode by following the instructions on this website. However, that has not helped.
The problem may be in the fact that my iPod is formatted for Windows and I am no longer using Windows. I cannot reformat my iPod for a Mac at this point because my iPod is the only location of my music. Reformatting it now would erase all my music and I have no backup!!
When I am plugging my iPod into the computer, I am holding the Option+Command keys to make sure that the iPod does not automatically sync. Is this necessary? I ask this because my iPod has no connection with this computer's iTunes and I have doubts that it would automatically sync. It seems that by holding the Option+Command Keys I am preventing the computer from recognizing the iPod. A brief iPod icon appears on the desktop and then disappears.

Have you failed to maintain a backup?

Adobe Caslon Pro generates enormous PDF files on Mac Word, displays incorrectly on Word for Windows

Had a terrible experience trying to typeset my first document with Adobe Caslon Pro in Word. In Word Mac, 27 page all text document rendered to 70 MB PDF with Opentype features enabled, well under a megabyte with Opentype features disabled in compatibility settings for the same font. Opening same document in Word for Windows (both 2010 and 2013) displayed with incorrect (increased) line spacing and Opentype features (e.g. ligatures) disabled even though they were enabled in compatibility setting (they showed up when I opened the same document in Mac).

Something definitely doesn't sound right here.
We are not aware of any problems using Adobe Caslon Pro with Microsoft Word 2011 on the Macintosh.
Attached is a sample Word document that I created using Word 2011 (with all latest updates from Microsoft), four styles of Adobe Caslon Pro with all OpenType features enabled.
I created a PDF file using “save as PDF” from Word's own “save” dialog, also attached.
I also created a PDF file from the “print” dialog using the “save as Adobe PDF” function (lower left corner of the dialog box), also attached.
In terms of functionality, I don't see the problems you are experiencing. The only difference between the generic PDF and the Adobe PDF appear to be optimization of the fonts embedded in the PDF files.
In terms of cross-platform compatibility, with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, forget about it. Font handling is problematic when you go beyond simple typography and fonts that have only four faces - regular, italic, bold, and bold italic. The cross-platform compatibility problems really have nothing to do with Adobe fonts themselves.

Outlook 11 for Mac sharing Calendar with Outlook 2010 for Windows

I have an Executive user that has a Macbook with Outlook 2011 that shares his calendar with his Administrator using Outloook 2010 for Windows (Exchange 2010). Exec changed his categories last week. The changes do not appear on Admin's calendar.
Exec is sharing calendar with Full / Publisher privs.
When I share my calendar with Admin she sees categories, and colors. Is dynamic, I make a change she immidietly sees it.
When Admin looks at her OWA she does not see changes on Exec's shared calendar.
Help! Thanks. -F.F.F.

Seems this an Exchange-Outlook 2011/2010 mix scenario. Seems Admin even cannot to see the categories changed through OWA, I think the categories have still not updated to mailbox from the Executive user's Outlook 2011. Does it happen when the user and
admin share their calendar with categories in one platform, I mean Outlook in Windows in both side or using OWA?

What happened to Podcasts in Itunes 10.4.0.80 for Windows?

I just installed Itunes for Windows on Windows 7, it is version 10.4.0.80, on a new computer. I went through the proceudre of subscribing to a podcast by going into Advanced >> Subscribe to Podcast. I expected to be able to see my subsribed podcast appear when I click on the Podcasts header in the navigation tree on the left. This is when I noticed that there is no Podcasts header. In the new version under "Library" I have "Music", "Films", "TV Programmes" and "Radio". I can't remember what version I was using before but I am pretty sure there used to be Podcasts here too. It doesn't appear anywhere on the list. Clearly the podcast section has just been moved somewhere, but where? I have repeated the action of subscribing several times and that seems to work with no errors, so it is definititely not a case of there just not being anything subscribed to. I only use Itunes to listen to podcasts, so this is rather crucial for me! Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this mystery.

I found this happeneing too since upgrading from 10.3.x to 10.4 and can't beleive its still there in 10.5.
Mine gets to between 1.2 and 1.6Gb before I get the 'Can't save library' error popup. If it happens late at night then the next day iTunes may be completely unresponsive - can't even bring it in to focus, so have to kill the process in Task Manager.
This iTunes instance has been running for 15min short of one day of continuous playback! and based on it's current memory leakage, it's about to fail.
For what it's worth, you can downgrade to 10.3 (you should be able to find sites archiving previous versions - Apple used to provide a link on their iTunes page, but I can't find it now). I was running or over a week with no decernable memory leakage, but as I wanted to upgrade to iOS5 on my phone, I had to go to 10.5. I've got a MacBook Pro too, so may use that for iPhone updating and see if iOS5 will still sync music on 10.3 ...via direct USB connect of course!
But, you'll also have to find the various guides for downgrading.
Loosly put, you have to locate the backed up .itl files in your profile. It will have a date stamp in the filename to indicate when the upgrades took place.
i.e iTunes Library 2010-11-22.itl
It's a bit of trial and error unless you know how many upgrades you've done since 10.3!
On Vista/Server 2008, the path to the backups is
Users\<your user ID>\Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Libraries
Make a copy of your current .itl (in the parent iTunes folder) and copy and rename one from the backups. You'll need to rename the file back to the same as the current one (iTunes Library.itl)
Hope this helps and hope that Apple pull the finger out of their cloud!
