Help

    The two other posts are correct... so I'll just clarify.  What's happening right now is your system is trying to boot into Windows in order to finish the installation.  What you want to do is make it boot into OS X.  As mende1 indicated, with your system off, hold down the Option key and continue to hold it while you turn the system on.  You will eventually be presented with an option to select which partition you would like to boot from.  Choose OS X.  After you get into OS X, again, as mende1 indicated, change the Startup Disk to OS X.  What this will do is cause your system to automatically boot into OS X when you restart it instead of you having to use the Option key when booting each time.
    Relaunching BootCamp Assistant will allow you to remove your Windows installation and partition.

  • I am ready to throw my computer out the window! I loaded the latest safari to and now at random pages will freeze. I can see what is going on, but cannot type anywhere! I have to shut down safari and go back in to even attempt to do anything. Please help!

    Please help! I updated safari and yes it is an older desktop, but now all of the sudden tabs I have open will freeze on me. I can see what is going on, but am unable to type anywhere on the page! I have to shut down safari and then open up a whole new window to even attempt to get it to stop! It is driving me insane not to mention I need my desktop to work properly. I beg for someone to help me with this.

  • Error Msg when installing Office for Mac 2008 on New Mac Book Pro

    Why Am I getting the message "Classic environment no longer supported"  when I try to install  Office for Mac 2008 install on a Late 2011 Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2
    Here is a screen shot:

    And for what it's worth, my choice would be (and is) LibreOffice, which I've used for about a year with nearly complete satisfaction. Last time I tried it three or four years ago, OpenOffice had the ugly, unrefined appearance of a Windows application; it had no Mac interface at all. That might actually be comforting to someone coming to the Mac from Windows, but as a 27-year Mac user, I hated it. I don't know whether OO has gotten a facelift in the intervening years.
    The intermediate step between OO and LO was NeoOffice, which I used for several years. It was OpenOffice with a Mac face, and I liked it well enough. LibreOffice is its further evolution, more compatible with the latest MS Office files.

  • Confused with installing windows for mac

    I want to install windows onto my macbook pro (2011) but have come across something that may be a problem and I am looking for some help...
    I understand that I need to get a version of windows to do this, but don't really have the £80 or so to get a fully copy from microsoft. I have looked on ebay and seen some sellers offering a Windows 8/8.1 version that boots from a DVD or USB, for around £10-12. In the item description, it says that I need a license key to perform a clean install.
    What does this mean for me? Will it still work if this may not be the full version and I don't have a license key?
    If it's any help, here is the item description:
    Please note that you will require your license key to perform the clean install from the bootable media that you will receive. This can usually be found on a sticker on the underside of your laptop or back of PC. However, if you can't find your key you can freely download software that will tell you your product key from http://www.magicaljellybean.com/downloads/KeyFinderInstaller.exe
    Without your license key this software is useless and please note that you are purchasing software only which has been directly downloaded from Microsoft and then used to create a bootable DVD. You are NOT bidding on a fully activated copy of Microsoft Windows.
    Thank you all in advance!

    And you should note that you can get the software (no key) for free from Microsoft, why pay for it (especially as you still need a key)

  • Compatibility with files when Swapping Windows for Mac on Cloud

    Hi, I need to swap my Creative Cloud from a Windows PC to a Mac. Before I unplug the old PC and set up the new Mac is it just a case of installing Cloud on the Mac, and most importantly are my existing .ai and .pdf files compatible?
    Thanks
    Kris

    Hello Kris,
    Cloud software can be installed on Mac and/or Windows for no extra cost. No platform swapping process is required.
    On the Mac simply sign in with your Adobe ID to creative.adobe.com and download the software. Same as you did on the PC.
    One problem might be with your fonts, but if the same fonts (at best. Ps fonts) are installed in both computers (PC/Mac) it shouldn't become a problem.
    Good luck!

  • Error when installing ICQ for Mac

    Today I attempted to install the official ICQ messenger for Mac (which I downloaded here: http://download.icq.com/download/mac/en ) but the installation of the .air file failed and asked me to contact the software creator for a new installation file.
    Recommended system requirements:
    Mac OS X v10.4.9 or later (ok)
    Flash 10 and above (ok)
    Adobe Air 2.5 (ok)
    The system.log shows the following error:
    ========================================================================

    ========================================================================
    So it's quite obvious that the package signature failed. However, I was able to install this messenger on another machine successfully, so I'm wondering why it always fails for this MacBook.

    First of all, thanks for your answer. No I've had no previous versions of ICQ installed on this system, it's a brand new MacBook.
    It should be the same version since they apparently didn't update it since 2011. It actually still works on the other machine but I can't seem to get it working on this one.
    I re-downloaded the installer like 5 times but it always returned the same error message, unfortunately. The package signature validation continues failing all the time.

  • 2 Questions about Windows for Mac

    1) When you install windows for Mac, does that become the "dominant" OS for the computer, or can you go back and forth? The reason I'm asking is because...
    2) I just got a mac, but I have a lot of PC only game,s most of which are PC games, that I want to play. Do PC only games run on Windows for Mac?

    Just wanted to clarify one thing and that is that there is no such thing as Windows for Mac. There is Boot Camp that will partition your drive so that you can install Windows on the new partition which in turn will allow you to run Windows Operating system on your Mac.
    When you install windows for Mac, does that become the "dominant" OS for the computer, or can you go back and forth?
    Neither OSx nor Windows become the dominant system. You are free to choose and go back and forth (requires shut down and reboot) as you see fit. You can set one system as the default over another and switch that too at will.
    I just got a mac, but I have a lot of PC only game,s most of which are PC games, that I want to play. Do PC only games run on Windows for Mac?
    Yes the PC Only games should run on Windows when installed via boot camp on a Mac however your Mac in turn must meet the games' hardware requirements just like any other windows based PC.

  • I'm sure this is a setting fix, but can't find it-.  All of my windows for mac programs open when I turn on my computer, such that I have to close each one individually to get to my desk top.  How do I adjust so none of them open unless I choose to?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First of all, check that you are looking for your USB drive in the correct place. To do it, first connect the USB drive. Then, open a Finder window (press the left icon of Dock) and choose your USB drive on the Finder sidebar, under "Devices". Finally, just copy the documents you need to the internal disk.
    If you want to show the USB drive in Desktop, open Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > General, and tick "External drives"

  • Proxies for Mac OS X have been shut down. Please help!

    all my proxies have been shut down in mac osx. im trying to find automatic proxy config and i need a .pac file. where would i get one? i am a newb when it comes to proxies so i need all the help i can get. i want to enable HTTP and HTTPS proxies and any others that i may need. please help.

    HelsBels1986, first power the computer down, now wait a few minutes until the machine is complete settled. Now press the startup button and restart while holding down the Option key. This should Open Startup Manager and give you a choice of startup disks, choose the Tiger Disk as your startup drive. Once the disk mount choose English, then go up to the Main Menu to Utilities and scroll down to Disk Utility. Once DU opens choose your start up drive in the upper hand column of the window an run Disk Repair from First Aid in the upper Tabs. Now check the SMART Status of your hard drive at the bottom of the window, it should say Verified. Next select your startup volume in the left column and run Repair Permissions.
    If all checks out go back up to the Main Menu/Utilities/Startup Drive and choose your hard drive and choose Restart.
