What the **** ????? No More Sims 3 Support

Right Upgraded to Moutain Lion tryed to use Sims 3 and I had a error message pop up saying that I need to reinstall The sims 3 app.
So found all disks out and started to try reinstalling it when i get ( You can’t open the application “The Sims™ 3 Installer.app” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.)
I hope apple are pulling my leg over 200 quid in sims packs for then not to support it
Any help plsease

Or check with EA support to find out if they have an update to the installer for Intel-based systems. The game itself will apparently run if you have all the latest patches; it's just the installer that is PowerPC only.
Regards.

  • Whats the difference between SIMS and CS-MARS?

    What is the essential difference between the two(except one is from netForensics (OEM) and one's from Protego networks)?
    On what basis a selection amongst the two products shall be made on a real deployment?

    We used netforensics before switching to MARS a few years back. It's been quite a while now and netforensics surely has changed some since, so bear that in mind when reading these comments. When it comes right down to it, we found COST to be our primary motivation for moving. It is unlikely that we would have been able to budget for the licenses to collect events from the 250+ devices we have configured today in MARS.
    Netforensics licensing is "by device". The licensing is further broken down using different classes of devices. For example, Intrusion prevention sensors used to be category 1 or 2 and desktops were category 3. Category 1 is the most expensive license, category 3 the least expensive.
    Netforensics uses added-on components to support correlation and incident response. You will have to purchase them separately.
    So when you're pricing out the two, be sure to include all the device licenses you think you'll ever need and also include at least the correlation add-on module. Without correlation in netforensics, you'd really be at a disadvantage when compared to MARS.
    I'll mention a couple less objective differences (i.e. IMHO):
    Netforensics has better reporting device support. It supports more devices and it supports them better. The classic example is Cisco's own NIDS products. MARS only gets updates ~12 weeks. Netforensics was more like ~2 weeks. MARS is very weak in this regard. Don't assume that because MARS says it supports product XYZ that it supports the latest version of product XYZ...check the versions.
    Netforensics will not support as many events per second as MARS without considerable tuning. Perhaps if you installed it on one of these it would: http://www.top500.org/
    Netforensics is not an "appliance" product. I think Cisco sells an "appliance-like" version, or used to, but it was not designed that way and I'd bet that it behaves much less like an appliance than MARS. This has its advantages too of course;-)
    Netforensics supports failover. Because it's not an appliance, you have much more flexibility when it comes to things like backup and failover.
    Netforensics scales extremely well, if you have the money.
    Netforensics uses java agents to collect Windows events. I can only say one nice thing about these agents, and that is that when they work, they support encrypted communications. MARS uses Snare, which we've been very happy with but is clear text syslog.
    Netforensics uses a java "fat client". It offers more functionality than the browser based MARS client.
    You have to have at least one server to install netforensics on to. But, you also have to have an archive server for MARS. The netforensics server will need to be beefy, the MARS archive server will not.

  • What the **** is happening to Apple Support?

    I'm trying to find answers to problems since Yosemite (and upgrade) has been installed. Does anyone know the best way to deal with Apple Support in the UK? I can't get to see someone in store until next Monday 24th and have been cut-off (network disconnect - not my end) via live chat.
    Yosemite is proving to be a really painful experience .
    If anyone has any success and advice in contacting Apple support in the UK, I'd be delighted to hear how to do it.

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible

  • "The unit chosen is not supported."

    I get the msg: "The unit chosen is not supported." (Adobe error message)  when I attempt to retrieve a scanned image from the Xerox Scan Utility window that appears in Adobe Acrobat after I have scanned the document.
    I can open MS Visio and retrieve that same image from Xerox Scan Utility window into Viso without any problem.
    I used Adobe to initiate the scanning process by:
        - opening Adobe Acrobat
        - choosing "Create PDF"
        - choosing "from scanner"
        - choosing the Xerox WorkCenter scanner and responsing to the Select scanner option window
        - choosing "Options": Native Mode  (tried Memory Mode)
                                        Show Scanner's Native Interface  (tried Hide Scanner Native Interface in various combinations w/Native mode and Memory mode)
        - choosing "Append" to existing PDF
        - browsing and selecting the PDF
        - choosing "Make searchable"
        - choosing "Scan"
        - selecting the scanner when prompted
    The went to Xerox scanner and scanned the document
    Returned to Adobe
    Got error when trying to retreive from Xerox Scan Utility window.
    Using:  Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3
               Abobe Acrobat Professional 8.3.0  (after I had the problem, re-installed to make sure I had all the updates etc.)
               Xerox WorkCentre Scanner 5740 - on network
               TWAIN Driver downloaded from Xerox for that scanner
    It appears that the last time I found anything related to this was 3 questions in 2002.  I saw no definitive solutions.  I had Xerox here to resolve and they could not.  Since it appears the Xerox part is workiong - the image is scanned and retrievable by Visio, then the issue seems to be with Adobe.  It also appears that Adobe is communicating with the Xerox since the Xerox Scan Utility Window displays in Adobe.
    I called Adobe support and told them the problem.  They could not (would not) answer since they said 8.3.0 is not supported.  I asked if at least they could tell me what "The unit chosen is not supported." means - what is "unit".  I was told to look it up in help.adobe.com or google.com - both of which I had already done.
    Does anyone know what the solution is ?  Thanks.

    I respect that you are employed by MicroSoft, but the compatability center is not always accurate.  It indicated that Adobe Pro 8 was compatabile for both 32 bit and 63 bit - but it is not.  I have upgraded to Adobe Pro 9 Extended because Adobe says that this is compatable with 64 bit.  The Microsoft compatability center also says that v9 is compatable with 64 bit.  But it is Not.  I have upgraded Adobe to 9.3.0, and it is Still not working.  I now have $700 invested in Adobe software that is non-functional due to W7 64 bit.
    So although users can check the compatability center - as I did prior to purchasing my new laptop - but it may not be accurate.
    And yes, I have updated the compatability center to indicate that the information there is incorrect.
    I have searched/googled everything that I can think of, and still nothing helps.  If you have a suggestion how to make this work, I am listening.

    I am using chat-r wireless and facetime is not working but when i put rogers fido or any other carrier sim in it work. Anyone know what the problem?

    I'm guessing it's a compatibility problem similar to that that T-Mobile in the US has. I'm not familiar with chat-r wireless, but I'm guessing it's not a supported carrier for the iPhone. If they can't tell you how to fix it, I'm guessing it's just plain not going to work.

  • Whats the maximum resolution resolution supported @ 60 Hz on an external display for mid 2014 macbook pro retina 13 inch ?

    whats the maximum resolution supported @ 60 Hz on an external display for mid 2014 macbook pro retina 13 inch ?

    I don't know where you found 1920x1080, but that isn't the max. The INTERNAL display can even support more than that.
    The maximum resolution is really hardware based, and since Thunderbolt 2 has a Mini displayport connector (Mini Displayport 1.2), the max resolution for Mini Displayport is 4k (3840x2160).
    PLEASE NOTE: Not all adapters can support that resolution, most monitors that can run 4k @60Hz have Displayport 1.2 (The most recent revision), Mini Displayport 1.2, and HDMI 2.0. DVI dual link can run 4k, but only 24-30Hz, depending on the monitor.
    Hope this helps!!

  • I am purchasing a laptop with a 4k screen (3200x1800) resolution, will Lightroom work at these levels? what is the highest resolution LR will support?

    I am purchasing a laptop with a 4k screen (3200x1800) resolution, will Lightroom work at these levels? what is the highest resolution LR will support?

    As Rob has pointed out there is no maximum resolution that LR supports, but performance decreases as resolution increases. I'm using an i7-860 quad core system with a 1920 x1080 (2.1 Megapixel) monitor and LR runs well. A 3200 x1800 (5.8 Megapixel) monitor will require ~2.75 x more processing to render the real-time loupe image in the Develop module. Some people have reported sluggish screen updating when making adjustments in the Develop module with even lower resolution monitors such as 2560x1440. Here's a post that discusses the issue:

    There aren't any supported carriers in Pakistan. Apple hasn't released the iPhone there. The OP is using a grey-market iPhone and hence is pretty much on his/her own as regards getting this phone working with the carrier, unless that carrier can help.
