What is needed to merge with windows

I am interested in using windows vista with my mac and have been told you need "parallels" and the vista program. Has anyone done this and is it successful?

It was kind of you to respond to my question. I should have been more specific but the intent was to draw more than a "yes". The subject refers to windows compatibility and since I am using a macbook pro my post will remain within the various apple discussions.

  • What version of itunes works with windows 7 64 bit

    What version of itunes works with windows 7 64 bit?  Must I use a beta version of cloud?  I generally don't want to use beta versions of software.

    It should work (many, many people have it working fine) though Windows7 was officially released only 2 days ago and iTunes has not had an update since then.

    could you please tell me what does it mean & how to solve it

    The hard drive has failed or is failing fast and will need to be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If not a retail laptop SATA hard drive can be used. Just be sure to get one of at least equal capacity as the original in order to use Recovery Discs. It can be larger, but not smaller capacity.For instance  you have a 640GB hdd  so you could use a 750GB hdd but not a 500GB hdd.
    Your Maintenance & Service Guide shows how to replace hdd:

  • Originally formatted for Mac, now need to use with Windows....

    I have a 1st Gen iPod Mini that I had formatted and used (rarely) with my Mac. I now want to wipe it clean and sync it to my iTunes for Windows (7.0.1.8). I am using a brand new Apple Dock Connector to USB 2.0 since my PC isn't able to handle the Firewire cable the Mini came with.
    I connected my Mini to my PC (new Dell laptop) and it pops up a dialogue box stating that the iPod appears corrupted and advised Restoring and/or disconnecting and reconnecting. I reconnected and that did not fix. I then tried to Restore and got this error: "Problem downloading software; requested resource not found".
    I CAN see my iPod in iTunes. I've read a number of different links but I'm at a loss. I think that what I need to do is reformat my Mini to use iTunes for Windows but can't seem to get that far. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as this is...suprise...supposed to be a holiday gift for someone!Thanks.

    Give your previous partition layout, you cannot install Windows via Bootcamp, unless you are willing to give up all your extra partitions and go back to EFI, OS X and RecoveryHD only configuration.

    1. Windows installer will not work and you will end up with driver issues.
    2. No.
    3. You cannot, but if you could, the Apple Bootmanager would be your Boot Manager/Loader.

  • What is best to use with windows vista 64 bit videos lag on you tube?

    Video on you tube take keeps on reloading!

    Previously, with separate 32-bit and 64-bit installers, you could run the 64-bit installer on Vista, and it would work correctly.  However, it was not officially supported by Adobe.
    Now with the 11.3 combined installers, I do not know what it installs on Vista.  I do not have Vista available, so I cannot test it.  Can you tell me what files you have in
    C:\Windows\system32\macromed\flash ?
    C:\Windows\syswow64\macromed\flash ?

  • AVHD directly attached...do I need to merge with VHD before moving?

    I am installing a new Hyper-V host and moving some VM's. I ran into an issue where a VM with snapshots would not merge and the VM went into Saved-Critical and upon reboot went missing.
    I followed the steps in this article ("Better alternatives to manually merging snapshots in Server 2008 R2" I can't post a link until my acct is verified) and got the latest snapshot mounted and the VM back up and it's fine. Now I need to move
    the avhd to the new host.
    Is it safe to move the avhd to a new host and remount it? Or, should I merge with the original vhd and then move? If so, how...because there are no snapshots listed in Hyper-V Manager?

    Hi Sir,
    >>Now I need to move the avhd to the new host .
    >>Is it safe to move the avhd to a new host and remount it? Or, should I merge with the original vhd and then move?
    I assume that you want to move avhd and vhd to another host for VM .
    In that case , I would suggest you to merge these snapshots first then move  the merged VHd file to new host then attach it for new VM .
    Best Regards,
    Elton Ji

  • Which version packages do I need for T530 with Windows 7 x64?

    - Power Management Driver:

    Or this version http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS014939

    Or this version http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032435
    The reason I'm asking is because Lenovo Support Driver & Software website lists all these versions for T530 with Windows 7 x64.

    usually i go for the newer version.
    and on my thinkpad i installed power management driver version 1.66
    and for ime firmware the second link you provided.

  • Satellite Pro A300-2CW - Need Recovery disks with Windows XP

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 2CW. I bought it with Software Windows XP (included in a CD), which worked perfectly for years. I have reinstalled it several times during this years, but now the CD has deteriorated and it doesn't work anymore.
    Originally the machine had WIndows Vista installed with DVD recovery creation option and a HDD recovery option, but I think this is not possible for Windows XP.
    Do I have any options?Where could I buy the original Windows XP CD?
    Thank you

    Hi
    You can try to order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
    Other way you can install own WXP version. All WXP drivers, tools ad utilities can be downloaded from Toshiba download page http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  • M-Audio FireWire Solo - appropriate for what I need? Compatible with FCP?

    Hey all:
    I'm shooting a video short next week with a DVX100. Eventually I'll need to do some voice over work in my... "studio." I have mics but need a preamp. The M-Audio Firewire Solo fits the budget comfortably. My minimum requirements are one XLR input and Phantom Power, which it has.
    I'm just wondering if anyone has advice against the decision. I have very little experience with audio interfaces. Anything I should be watching out for? Any other suggestions? My budget tops out at $400US or so, but I don't want to overdo it, either. I'm not looking for something that will perform things I may need in the future, I just need a quality, compatible, reliable preamp.
    Thanks in advance, everyone.
    Michael

    I teach in a school that uses Tapco Mix60 mixers (http://www.tapcoworld.com, approx $60) with FCP with great success. So much so, I bought one for use at home with my rig.
    True, the whole path is analog. But using the speaker/microphone jacks on the back of a G5 work well. So far with about 30 students using the systems we have had no problems. Just buy some Hosa cables (Mini to 1/4” Phone Stereo Breakout) from your favorite supplier to connect the Mac to the mixer. Add a microphone and you are all set.
    As a side note, I generally use Soundtrack Pro to record voice overs. It seems a little easier and I have access tools to make me, or talent, sound better.
