  • Can you run a windows only Photoshop plugin on a Mac using Parallels?

    Can you run a windows only Photoshop plugin on a Mac using Parallels?   In particular a .8BF plugin like PTFilters.8BF  or Super Cubic.

    If you also have a Photoshop version of the Photoshop application, the answer is of course YES.
    Otherwise, the answer is no,
    If you have the CC subscription, then of course you can install a Photoshop Windows version and run your plug-in.  That'll be separate from your Photoshop Mac install..

  • I need to use my iMac to run some Windows software and was thinking of using Parallels Desktop 9 to help with this. Do you still have to partition your drive with Parallels and does this leave you open to viruses?

    I need to use my iMac to run some Windows software not available for Mac and was thinking of obtaining Parrallels Desktop 9 to help with this. If I use Parrallels do you still have to partitian your drive and does this leave you open to viruses?

    You do not have to partition your drive - Parallels creates a disk image which contains your Windows installation. You do have to exercise anti-virus measures in the Windows partition, although such malware cannot affect the Mac filesystem.

    Hey Jatin, Look under the sofa. Any luck? All joking aside, not much to do here, nothing with electronics anyway. You'll have to do the, "Helen Hunt Method!" Go looking for your iPod like it was a lost wallet or set of keys. Good luck, happy hunting! Cheers.

    I plug my iPod Nano into the computer whilst having iTunes open, and keep getting the same message appearing and no button saying 'Zoe's iPod' of where i can sync my music. The message says this:
    An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect, then try again
    I have tried disconecting it then reconnecting it but it doesn't make any difference. Please help

    Hello Zoe97,
    I would try this:

    Go through ALL the steps. Most of the time one of them fixes it.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Buterem,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:
    How to use Activity Monitor - Apple Support
    If the entire system hangs or locks up (for example, if the system clock freezes and stops counting up), you may also be experiencing some variety of Kernel Panic. If that is the case, you may also find this article useful:

  • Macbook pro running windows 7 parallel vpn works in windows and not mac

    I recently purchased a macbook pro. My medical management software runs in windows. I installed the software on the mac using parallels. If I'm at my home network/office I can access the server/program. When I try to access the vpn outside the network it won't work.

    Parallels is supossed to be loaded on Mac OS platform and then you load Windows 7 on Parallels. The VPN is also supposed to be loaded on the Parallels platform. The VPN is not supposed to be on the Mac platform.
    If you need to run the VPN on the Mac platform then you have to edit the set up of it because it is not the same as running in Windows. You'll have to ask your IT person about using the VPN on the OS X.

  • Airport utility only shows disc and not airplay

    airport utility only shows disc and not airplay

    Actually......IF......one is using an older 5.x version of AirPort Utility......AND.....an AirPort Express, a Music icon is displayed at the top of the screen. If you click the Music icon, there are settings to enable AirPlay and establish a password for the service.
    The newer Mac 6.x and iPad and iPhone versions of AirPort Utility automatically enable AirPlay, but display no settings for this.
    Since ralphington is using Mavericks (10.9.4), there are no controls for AirPlay displayed in his version of AirPort Utility.

  • The float in windows option is grey and not accessable ? How can I copy from one image to another ? Elements 11

    The float all in windows option is grey and not accessible ? How can I copy from one image to another ? Elements 11

    You really are not getting this.
    "I guess I am still completely shocked that as a parent we can't download something for everyone to use."
    Why do you continue to think this although we keep telling you that this is not the case.
    You do NOT have to purchase anything twice.  You can share the music with as many ipods as you like in your household.
    The ipods are designed to sync with your computer regularly.  You should have been syncing these other ipods with your computer all along, thus transferring the purchases to your computer where that music can be synced to as many ipods as you like.
    Take on of the ipods with the music in it.  Open itunes on your computer.  Plug in the ipod.  Do not sync.  Click File>Transfer Purchases  This will transfer the purchases from the ipod to the computer.  Make sure that you have authorized your account on the computer:  here are directions for that. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
    Unplug the ipod.
    Plug in the other ipod with purchased music.  Do not sync.  Click File>Transfer Purchases  This will transfer purchases from the ipod to the computer.
    You can now plug in any of the ipods, select what you want to sync and sync.
    Have a look at the manual for the ipod.  http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
