How to install a Compatible for XP on Windows 7 software
I just bought a new HP with windows 7.
Can I install the software that is compatible with Windows XP and power continue to use it under Windows 7?
I have two external hard drives that Windows 7 does not seem to read. When pluged, they are not listed on the page work stations. Why doesn't he read my tow hard drives and how can I solve this problem.
I have a database of large size on Quickbooks Customer Manager 2.0. Can I install in Widown 7 Customer Manager and access my database?
QuickBooks Customer Manager 2.5 is no longer compatible with Windows &?
Since you already have the computer, it cannot hurt to try to install the software. You have two options to try to get your software to work. Let's first try that easy. If you have installed the software and it does not work, you can try running Windows XP. Click Start, type compatibility in the research field, and click the enter key. This will bring up the resolution of the problems of compatibility of programs. Click Next and it make a quick check on your machine. It will ask you to Select the program that you are having problems with, and then click Next. Click troubleshoot program, then check the box for the program worked in earlier versions of Windows... Windows XP (Service Pack 2)-click , then click on Next. Click on the box for start the program. He will try to open the program as if you were using XP. Once the program is trying to open, click on Next. Now it will ask if it worked for you. If so, click on Yes, save these settings for this program. If you clicked Yes, every time that you open the program now he opens as if it was running under XP. That if it worked!
Sometimes this method does not work. For these cases, there is a new feature called XP Mode, which will install a virtual machine running Windowx XP SP3 before you run your program in. This feature is available in Professional, comprehensive and Enterprise edition versions. It is not too hard to get set up. It actually installs a copy of Windows XP before you run your program in. Here's a Microsoft article on how to get it set up: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/. XP mode now works even if you do not have the chip installed for hardware-assisted virtualization technology.
With regard to the hard drives after connect you, try to look in the Device Manager to see if they are recognized. Right-click on your computername in the Device Manager and click Scan for hardware changes. Go through the list and see if there are all devices with a yellow mark beside them, this means that there is a problem; Maybe would help drivers updated.

How to install the CS6 for Mac on Windows? [was: I think]
I PSCS6 on a computer, a Mac. I would like to install the program on a laptop PC. In my view, we can install the program on two computers. Can I download it but it's the Mac version, which will not be installed on the PC. Is it possible that Adobe won't let me change platforms on the allocation of "two computer?
If you have a Cloud account (subscription version), then the software is cross-platform licensed already.
If you have a perpetually licensed version (paid full from the start), then the license is platform specific and relates to your Mac.
There is a process of exchange of platform but it's only for the current versions of software and is a permanent exchange from Mac to Windows, and vice versa.
