Will update 10.10.1 mess up my BootCamp partition?
When upgrading to Yosemite (10.10), my BootCamp partition was messed up and I had to reinstall BootCamp completely. Many people had this issue as well. Does anyone know or has anyone tried updating to Yosemite (10.10.1) from Yosemite (10.10) with a BootCamp and if so, does your BootCamp partition run fine?
I just don't want to go through that hassle once again of reinstall Windows and all of my work in Windows. Any response will be appreciated. Thank you.
I upgraded my Mac from 10.10 Yosemite to 10.10.1 Yosemite, with a BootCamp partition running Windows 7. So far, I have encountered no errors on my partition.
Good Luck.

Can't update Apple SW in Windows XP on Bootcamp Partition
I have windows XP on a bootcamp partition on my Macbook Pro 15". When I try to upgrade Apple software (such as Safari or iTunes), I get a message that a specific file can not be deleted and that the file or directory might be corrupt. I've tried the following:
* from the CMD window, "chkfsk /f" then reboot
* Using the tool UNLOCKER to delete the file
* Uninstalling the current version of Safari and iTunes then trying to reinstall them (no go, BTW)
All without avail. What else can I try?
Thx!
=Alan=I never use Apple Software Update, basically don't trust it enough.
You can manually download installers as stand alone though.
Apple tech note on uninstalling
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
In Windows 7, user pref data is stored in AppData and there you will find folders in Local and Roaming for each.
Apple also uses a common application support folder used by Safari and others.
There are some problems with importing CDs in iTunes 10.1 but check that forum.
I'd ask in Safari for Windows and look for some of the tips/faqs in there where you can find more help.

Will Lion install require me to redo my bootcamp partition?
Dear all,
I work at a university that has little support for Macs and so the Bootcamp partition is where I spend my working days. (OSX bliss is for evenings only!). Before the nay sayers pipe up, we also develop PC software and so I need Windows 7. I would like to install Lion but setting up a new Bootcamp partition is a no no for me as it requires an IT technitiian to spend ages setting everything back up for work.
Will it be possible to install LION keeping the Bootcamp partition as is?Yeap, Correct! Thanks to the 30meg download speed, downloaded and installed in 65 minutes. Sweet!

Will reinstalling OS X Tiger remove my windows bootcamp partition?
The header is all I want to know guys, im reinstalling OS X due to some probs with CrossOver and I just wanted to know what will happen to my windows bootcamp partition.
Thanks in advance.
- JasonWhen you go to reinstall OS X, it will pull up the HD and ask you where to install it and you get to choose the partition. It will leave the Windows partition alone.
Now, if you choose to do a complete erase and install and instruct Disk Utility to erase the hard drive and remove all partitions - it will do just that. -
My old school iPod touch won't update. Does apple mess it's customers over by not allowing updates for older models of the touch? My last update is Ios5. My touch says its up to date. So has my old school touch reached its pinnacle?
Correct. The 3G iPod does not have the hardware to support an iOS version higher than 5.1.1
To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
Starting when iOS 7 was releases, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists. -
Does anyone know if I can download this version of Java - for OS X 2012-005 - the new Java update is a total mess for me and is preventing me from working remotely... :-( really need to go back to older Java, don't have the Time Machine set up ... Thx
I wonder if it's a variation of this, of which I've seen many different symptoms...

Resolution
Move the mouse or trackpad cursor over the center area of the login window so you can see the user icons. Click on the icon of the user that you would like to login as, type in the user's password, and press Return.
If the login window is configured to show only the name and password fields, type in the user's name and password into the fields, and press Return (even if you cannot see the rest of the login window).
Additional Information
This issue will not occur if the display is not sleeping when the account is logged out. Use the steps below to confirm that the account is not configured to log out automatically while the display is sleeping:
Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. Click the padlock to unlock the preference pane and enter your admin password. Click the Advanced button at the bottom, then see if the option "Log out after N minutes of inactivity" (where N is the number of minutes) is enabled.
Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and configure Display Sleep to occur after the account is logged out, by dragging the slider to a number of minutes that is greater than N was set to in the previous step.
Important: If automatic log out is not needed, disable "Log out after Nminutes of inactivity" in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. This will also prevent the issue.

What are the tables will update while loading Master data ?
Hello Experts,
What are the tables will update while loading Master data ? And requesting you to provide more information about Master data loading and its related settings in the beginning of creation infoobjects.It depends upon the type of Master data u r loading....
In all the master data loadings, for every new value of master data an SID will be created in the SID table /BI*/S<INFOOBJECT NAME> irrespective of the type of master data.
But the exceptional tables that get updated depending on the type of master data are.....
If it is a time Independent master data then the /BI*/P<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the loaded data.
If it is a time dependent master data then the /BI*/Q<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the loaded data.
If the master data is of time Independent Navigational attributes then for every data load the SID table will get updated first and then the /BI*/X<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the SID's created in the SID table (NOT WITH THE MASTER DATA).
If the master data is of time dependent navigational attributes then for every data load the SID table will get updated first and then the /BI*/Y<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the SID's created in the SID table (NOT WITH THE MASTER DATA).
NOTE: As said above, For all the data in P, Q, T, X, Y tables the SID's will be created in the S table /BI*/S<INFOOBJECT NAME>
NOTE: Irrespective of the time dependency or Independency the VIEW /BI*/M<INFOOBJECT NAME> defined on the top of /BI*/P<INFOOBJECT NAME> & /BI*/Q<INFOOBJECT NAME> tables gives the view of entire master data.
NOTE: it is just a View and it is not a Table. So it will not have any physical storage of data.
All the above tables are for ATTRIBUTES
But when it comes to TEXTS, irrespective of the Time dependency or Independency, the /BI*/T<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated (and of course the S table also).
Naming Convention: /BIC/*<InfoObject Name> or /BI0/*<InfoObject Name>
C = Customer Defined Characteristic
0 = Standard or SAP defined Characteristic
* = P, Q, T, X,Y, S (depending on the above said conditions)
Thanks & regards

Hello, I have iMAC 7,1, 20 inch,
4gigs of ram,
Intel C2D
ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB
HDD 320gig's
iMAC is perfectly runing OS Mavericks (10.9.5), with no lag, and no sluggish working, Multitasking is AWESOME (i have PC, with 8gigs of RAM, GeForce GTX570, etc etc), but i must say this MAC is running way better a way way, faster and I am Loving it!!! I am using it for making music, and video editing, i am Using Final Cut Pro x, Ableton 9, Logic Pro x, and bunch of other apps and it is working perfectly, and i am so shocked how machine old like this can do that stuff better than any PC i had, and not to mention that I use more time on iMAC than on PC, i use Windows PC just for occasional gaming, but that is like 10% of time, so i use my MAC in 90% of time.
So, enough of my iMAC. I am wondering if I update it to Yosemite, will my iMac slow down, and not continue to work like on Mavericks? Will it become sluggish and unresponsive? Will it affect reliability and stability which have on Mavericks? And will update delete my personal data (tons of Logic, Ableton and Garage band projects, and tons of Final Cut Pro projects), Applications (because I have some apps which is hard to find these days)...
I know bunch of you guys would tell me to backup my data, but i don't have External hard drive (they are pretty expensive in my Country), I have some friend who could borrow me External HDD, but they have their data on it, and they mostly use windows.. I did not use Time Machine yet, but i think probably it would format HDD on Macs partitions, so, i will do it on my own guys (don't judge me about that guys please)..
So if someone could answer me that, i will really appreciate that.
Thank you, and best Regards!!

I recommend you upgrade your RAM to at least 8 GB for good performance with the apps you're using. Also keep a minimum of 25-30 GB of free space on your boot drive for optimal system and application performance.
The maximum RAM a 7.1 iMac can address is 6GB, the OP can keep one of the 2GB DIMMs and then add a matching 4GB DIMM. If the OP decides to do this, please only purchase from Crucial or OWC at www.MacSales.com.
However as described on a 8 year old iMac, I'd stay with Mavericks and then when considering upgrading upgrade to a more up-to-date Mac. -
After updating to iOS 6.1.2, neither my iPhone or iPad will update apps thru App Store. Any suggestions?
What happens when you try?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
My iphone contacts are not updating to Icloud or Outlook, I can create a contact in Icloud/Outlook and it will update to my Iphone but I cannot create a contact on my Iphone to have it update in the Cloud/Outlook, I am using Itunes as the bridge.

My iTunes password will update some of my Apps but not all of them. When I try to update the remaining ones, my password expires. I've just created 5th PW. Does anyone else experience this?
- Try going to Setings>Store and sign out of the account and then sign back in.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears -
What program will update the current temperature in Mavericks 10.9.1?
We have tried YoWindow3 and Weather.com with no success. So what can we use to display the current weather/temperature on the Desktop? Both of those programs do display the temperature, but they do not automatically update it as they did on our Windows system. If we start at 50 degrees, it will stay 50 degrees all day and night until we open the weather program itself, at which time it will update the temperature to the current temperature one time ... until we again manually refresh it. Is there any weather program that will actually refresh the temperature display on its own?
No, not Dashboard, as that requires bringing up the dashboard. Nor Safari as that means having Safari open to view it. But on the Menu bar at the top of the screen, the programs we have tried display the current temperature on that top bar, but do not upgrade it. We would like to see it when doing whatever without having to open or switch to a specific screen or program. When creating a document or spreadsheet, or when listening to music or viewing pictures, or doing anything else that does not necessarily leave the Dashboard nor Safari open. We are new to Macs, so pardon me if I am using the wrong terminology. In Windows, this would have been called the Title Bar, Menu Bar, or even Toolbar.
