Which is better to run Quicken for Windows - Parallels or CrossOver?

I have the latest version of Parallels Desktop 8 for Macintosh. I use Windows Vista Home Edition with it. The only Windows program I need to run is Quicken 2013 Deluxe for Windows which runs a little slow on Parallels. Does anyone know if the latest version of CrossOver would allow the Quicken program to run quicker? The CrossOver site says it runs Windows programs natively on the Mac. Does natively mean quicker? I'd rather not clog up my computer with Windows if I don't need it.

I'm designing a form that will act as a full screen menu to control access to a large number of forms & reports. Since call_form & run_report_object search for forms & reports on Windows using the forms_path & reports_path I was considering using URLs and the web.show_document built-in to run each form & report from the menu form that was why I was asking if there are any advantages of one method over another.

HT5634 HOW WOULD I DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 7 BCA FOR MY MACBOOK AIR. I HAVE PARALLELS 7 FOR MAC AND WANT TO RUN QUICKEN FOR WINDOWS

Which systems of Windows 7 do I download for my MacBook Air? I have OS 10.8,5 I installed Parallels 7 for Mac and would like to run Quicken for Windows.

You can run Windows 7 in Parallels. You do not need to run Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows if using Parallels. Visit the Parallels site for instructions regarding running Windows in Parallels.

Can Quicken for Windows work on a Mac w/Lion installed using Parallels?

I've never used Parallels but am panicking with the phaseout of the already anemic Quicken for Mac 2007. Has anybody used the more powerful Windows version of Quicken on a Mac through Parallels or some other PC emulator? And will it work with Lion?
Appreciate whatever help you can provide.

Many people run Windows on their Macs for just such reasons, and while I have not myself run Quicken for Windows, I've seen a number of reports from people who do and they've reported no problems that one would not encounter on a standard Windows system. The latest version of Parallels is working fine for me under Lion.
There are also other banking applications that do work on Lion, iBank 4 as an example, and at least some of those can import Quicken files. And of course there's Quicken Essentials for Mac, if that limited feature set would work for you. So you have several options for replacing Quicken for Mac.
Regards.

Does anyone run VPC and Quicken for Windows?

If you are like me, I do not think the Mac version of Quicken is good at all.
Does anyone use Quicken for Windows and VPC?
If so, how does it run?

Yes, you really have to define what your needs will be and determine if it is cost-effective and reliable enough for you. In my situation, the software (VPC) allows me to run work apps that are only available in Windows 2000 & XP. Those work fine. I can use my Powerbook for almost all my Mac and Windows stuff. The fact that I already had Quicken 2005 for Windows made it a simple matter of pulling out the disk and running the installer. That said, there are good alternatives to Quicken, such as the one mentioned earlier. I like the Mvelopes program, a web-based alternative that works well with Firefox on the Mac. I checked out MoneyDance and it looks very good, though many of my financial institutions were not listed for on-line banking.

Can i run games for windows in bootcamp?

so can i run games for windows in bootcamp? and will they work properly?

Well I'm not to sure by what you mean "Which games run on Mac". There are not many that run on Mac that are that great although there are a few. Mostly for any great games you would need to run Boot Camp. Keep in mind though that you still need a version of Windows, so if you don't have one laying around somewhere you still have to buy that. Here is a link for your Mac games.

Hope this helps.
If you are wondering about Windows games that you may be looking for I only currently have Left 4 Dead which I have to say is an amazing game! I really don't have many games so I can't help to much in good ones.

How do I convert Quicken for Windows files to Quicken Essentials?

I have a large Quicken for Windows investment account on a virtual PC at my old office that I need to transfer to Quicken for Mac at my home. I only want to transfer the investment information and do not use Quicken for banking. I have installed Quicken Essentials on my Mac. I have the info that needs to be transferred on a disk. Please advise any hints/suggestions to make sure all the data is transferred. Thanks.

Quicken is not an Apple product. I suggest you post your question on the Quicken forums since it's their software you're wondering about.

I want to run Quicken through Windows on my macbook pro, whats the best way to do this?

I want to run Quicken 2012 through Windows on my macbook pro, whats the best way to do this?
I have been looking at Parallels or VMware in order to use Windows but then I will also need to get a Windows license. Just looking for the most inexpensive way possible as this will probably be the only Windows app I run.
Also looking at this CrossOver software which says you dont need Windows license. Anyone used this before? had success?

CrossOver's website has a list of software it has certified as working or working with known issues - Quicken 2012 has a bronze rating meaning it runs but with enough issues that it isn't recommended. In other words, "Run away!"
Get a copy of Windows 7 OEM from Amazon or New Egg and give it a try with VirtualBox (an open source virtualization program). If VirtualBox doesn't cut it you can always buy VMWare or Parallels.

Which Java 2 Platform Standard Edition for Windows do I download?

For SDK for Windows 32 bit,
There are two options, one is Windows Offline Installation, Mult-ilanguage
and Windows Installation, Multilanguage.
Which one do I choose?
Please reply soon.
Thanks,
Sincerely, Egan

For offline installation you can download that file and keep it for further use and then install it any time you want.
If you go for other one you need to keep in connected ti internet b'coz that is online installation. you don't get the sofware backup copy for futher use. so go for offline installation.

Where can I download the Crystal Run Time for Windows Server 2008 64 bit ?

Hi,

Thanks all for your replys.
As I know there is no Crystal Reports 2008 runtimes for 64 bit machines, there are only 32 bit runtimes for that product.So,I need to know when will be the 64 bit runtimes will be released or will be available.
Also,for the CR bundled with VS 2008 (10.5), there are 64 bit runtimes which you could find on your development machine under -
' C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\CrystalReports10_5\CRRedist2008_x64.msi '
When will be 64 bit runtimes for CR 08 will be available?
Thanks

Which is better? VMware Fusion 3 or Parallels Desktop 6?

Hi all
I have had my iMac i5 for 3 days now and I am starting to get the hang of it ater coverting from PeeCee....
But I have some application that I need to run in windows, mainly my pinnacle software (dazzle creator 90 and media streamer similar to apple TV).
I would like to access and run windows via the mac os but I am stuck on which software to buy. Should I et VMware Fusion 3 or Parallels Desktop 6.
I would use bootcamp but from what I have read I can only run OSx or Windows XP
Does anyone here use either software and recommend which is best or if there is another similar software? I am thinking of selling the streamer to get apple tv but only if I can't get this to work...

Forgot to mention that I have found 2 different versions of parallel's 6
there is:
Parallels Desktop 6 £59.99
and
Parallels Desktop 6 Switch to Mac Edition £79.99
are these the same software?

Photos Not Syncing; Photos Missing From Albums, No Error Message, Running iTunes for Windows & iOS 7.1.2

I am having an issue with syncing my photos on my iOS devices running iOS 7.1.2, the two being an iPhone 4s and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G.
When I sync photos, I keep on having photos turn up missing from entire albums. I have tried everything I can to resolve this issue from the support article titled <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3697">iTunes: Unable to sync photos</a>, and nothing has successfully worked in any kind of permanent form. I have even gone so far as to sync albums individually with a limit of around 400-500 total photos per sync, (give or take), and tried using what very little options I have on the photos tab for my devices in iTunes to essentially trick the devices to sync the missing photos. Despite this, iTunes still fails to sync newly added photos from the source location.
I have even made the attempt of re-installing iOS 7 on both devices, and restoring from backup. Again with no avail.
My best guess for my iPhone is that as it is a 16 GB, not all of 15.6 GB of photos will sync to the device, (go figure), but that doesn't explain why recent photos aren't added OR why my iPad 2 of 64 GB has missing photos.
As of this post, I have an estimated 38,940 files, spread across 1,703 folders, (a large amount of folders being in some of the folders; from my knowledge never being more than two folders in). They are all in one dedicated folder on a hard drive I've dedicated to iTunes and music related files, (for the sake of AVOIDING this kind of nonsense, I might add).
As for the system OS and iTunes, I am running Windows 7 64 bit, and I am using iTunes 11.2.2.3, but will have updated to iTunes 11.3 by the time anyone responds.

I have the exact same problem.
Same kind of photos/videos taken with the same camera randomly sync.
Did 11.3 fix this issue?
Sincerely
