    What is the best strategy to migrate data from Windows to one Mac to another? I use Parallels Desktop to run Windows on my current Mac but want to use Bootcamp on my new.

    If it is only the data (not apps) I use Dropbox. It turned out to be the best way to move things between the side Mac and the bootcamped Windows of my iMac side. I don't see why it would not work to move data from a virtual machine installation of Win to a BootCamp installation.

  • How can I open a windows app use parallels desktop 11 as before?

    Hello.

    I used to use Parallels desktop when it's version was 4... I use it for a long time until today, I had to update it and install it again for a windows application...

    Previously, parallels has given you a choice, allowing you to choose whether you want windows applications open as they are native applications mac, or if you want any operating system windows on your mac as having the bar of windows taskbar and other things...

    but now that I installed it I can't get windows apps to run as they are applications native mac and run only and only this app, not all windows OS as a window...

    What should I do?

    Parallels Desktop 11

    PS: I know it's a bit out of place here, but don't know where otherwise the question and it's urgent

    When you have used Parallels desktop version 4, remember inside Windows installation until you can run Windows programs? You did, and except if you have saved the Machines virtual Parallels created, you have to start over. However, viewing this document Parallels that explains where Parallels VMS files (Note: by default, all virtual machines are stored in /Documents/Parallels or in /Users/Shared/Parallels files). See if you still have on your machine and, if so, try opening and updating the virtual machine file to work with Version 11.

  • Repeated installation of Windows Vista SP1 in Windows Update and fake notification of successful Installation.

    I was using Windows Vista Home Basic 32 bit OS in my Dell Inspiron 1501. The operating system is preinstalled and Windows Update updated to SP2. But recently an unknown problem has occurred and my laptop cannot connect to the internet. As no reason was found, experts have advised the reinstallation of Windows Vista. I reinstalled Vista by running the operating system provided by Dell with my laptop DVD. The laptop started to connect to the internet normally.

    I started to receive an update to Windows Vista SP1. I installed it. Installation has suddenly didn't have that about five minutes and the computer also has not restarted several times on its own as expected. At the end of the Windows Update notification "Update" successful installation Update history shows also succeed installing SP1. However, I am receiving the same updated daily and installed in exactly in the same way with the same result. After installation, the Windows version does not display Windows Vista Home Basic SP1 but only Windows Vista Home Basic. What should I do?

    I had the same problem and it really irritated me. Even when you install SP1, and he says there are successful (takes like 1 sec inst) and you click on updates search is there once again. He said in the story who is has been installed, but is not there, when I tried to install SP2 maually it is said first install SP1, and then I tried to manually install SP1 and it says that I have already. But if you go to start > right click on 'computer' > properties it does not say you have SP1. So here's what I just did and now it worked and SP2 as well.

    When you click on the support link that he gave u get the ability to run a thing 'fixit '. That run. And it still didn't work. (read everything in the support page) Then I went on this link and ran the virus Hunter MS. Nothing was found, problem still there. so I ran again the file 'fixit '. (twice he said them that something was fixed.) then I restart my computer and tried to install the SP1 Setup again and it worked perfectly :) then SP2 and it worked as well manually. and he has actally took like an hour to install. maybe try, worked for me. lol, don't know what measures was unnecessary, but it worked. You can download the SP to install it manually, simply google "manually install SP1/2 for vista" or something and download it.
    Sorry for the bad grammar/spelling. In a hurry, lol. I hope that you manage!

  • Help the clean installation of Windows 7 Pro and using the GPO to run automatic updates and restart all night

    I am trying to solve a problem that will probably require a new installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. The grace period ends in 3 days, and the next 30 days are final exams at the College. I have 2 licenses (and product key) of Windows 7 Pro, but my drive HARD goes wrong and I don't want to use MAK activation. I will be eventually to replace the disk, but is now bad timing.

    If a reinstall is needed, I was going to ask if anyone knows how to set the strategy of perhaps a GPO where Windows is updated automatically in the background and after installing updates, 45 or 60 minutes, then restart. The goal would be to have a computer fully patched when I wake up in the morning.

    This is my plan:

    Install Windows 7 Pro SP1 64 bit > Windows automatically updated and plug the Ethernet cable > define a GPO where the computer waiting for 45 to 60 minutes after installation of updates (so the msi may end in the background, and I do not interrupt the installation) > the PC will restart > more update swill be downloaded and installed > wait due to the policy of GPO before reboot > Reboot > do it until it's over. > wake up with a PC fully patched 7-9 hours later.

    Is this a workable plan?, and if so, how do I define policies such as delay restarting, etc. to achieve?

    The reset did not work. It would be a simple solution. I have a valid license, but I don't want to replace the HARD drive until after final exams are over, so I'll reinstall and activate. I try to achieve in the next 24 hours, so it doesn't keep me from my school work.  I must also support and will then replace my files.

    Feel free to advanced used terminology. I have some experience.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Another question: should I install a security suite before all updates being installed more than 12 hours, or wait until later? What is the level of risk?

    Anyone used Ninite to automate the installation of other programs? Is how safe it?

  • CS6 Dreamweaver crashes when you use Parallels Desktop

    Hello. When I use Dreamweaver CS6 on Mac OS 10.11.6, it crashes a lot. Sometimes, it will be immediately. Sometimes I can use it for a few hours. Do not know what triggers really crash if it saves files, undoing things. It's really random. I have Parallels Desktop 11.2.1 also installed so that I can run Windows on my iMac. I used to run Windows 8.1 and never had any problems with Dreamweaver crashing. When I installed 10 Windows, which seems to be when I started having problems. Not sure if this can even be linked or not. Is there a memory problem Windows 10 is requiring more virtual memory which is causing problems? Or maybe that Dreamweaver has been corrupted somehow?

    How can I contact Support Adobe by phone? He directed me to this forum. I still have the serial for Design & Web Premium key. Can I just download Dreamweaver and then use this key set of the to save so I can uninstall the Dreamweaver I and install again? Which will work? You do not know if this will fix the problem or not, but I thought it would be worth it. Can someone help me? Thank you.

    Andy

    As John said, CS6 is old software.  But don't give up hope quite yet.

    The first thing to try is to delete the Cache of corrupt in DW.  Make sure that hidden files & folders are in your Mac Finder or Windows Explorer

  • Why Windows 7 won't remember my Desktop Slideshow setting after using Remote Desktop for it?

    Probably need Windows 7 Professional or better to do, I don't remember what editions have Remote Desktop.
    I really love using the Windows 7 with desktop slideshow feature. I have a very large amount of funds in a folder of wallpapers which I configured my 'theme' customization which is supposed to spend on a daily basis.
    Usually, the scenery change as they are supposed to, but very quickly, I noticed that once school started, the same background blocked for awhile. After resetting the setting time and time again, I noticed that the background changes is no longer after that I used another machine remotely in this machine.
    While I understand why turn off desktop slideshow arrives for remote desktop, why didn't he re - turn on desktop slideshow after disconnecting the remote session?
    Steps to reproduce:
    Computer 1: Turn on Desktop Slideshow in customization (Customize, wallpaper, choose a background screen, use fill as a position of the image, change image daily 1, mixed). Save the changes. Save this theme with any name, for example 'the mine'.
    Computer 1: right-click on the desktop: notice that she has 'Next wallpaper' from the context menu.
    2 (Windows XP) computer: Remote Desktop connection to connect to computer 1.
    Computer 2: Close the Office connection remotely using the [X] button on the title bar of masking (disconnection without disconnection).
    Computer 1: Connect on your computer.
    Computer 1: right-click on the desktop: note that the "next wallpaper" is MISSING from the context menu.
    Computer 1: If you go to the customization, the current theme will be unsaved theme that uses the last wallpaper, but don't use a Desktop Slideshow.
    This should not happen. He should go immediately to my previous theme, or even if I do not save the theme, it must return to the original values that was there before the use of remote desktop.
    Does anyone else know this? Is there a solution? Or am I doomed to have constantly changing my theme daily until Microsoft fixes this (If they decide to)?
    I use Windows 7 Professional build 7600 x 64 (MSDNAA image).

  • After the purchase of licenses for Windows 7 can later use us them for virtual desktops?

    We will buy 50 windows 7 pro, 50 Office 2010 std for 50 PC today. NET year that we will remove the desktop and build virtual office physical system using vmware. It is anyway to use these licenses (windows and office) on virtualized desktops? If so, is it even legal?

    Nothing illegally to this topic, but you might want to watch how get you the licenses. I guess you use purchase volume license since it is a considerable amount of licenses. You should study the methods available for application virtualization.

    If VMWare proposes as a solution, it should not be a problem.

    Another option is to App - V from Microsoft:

  • Cannot reactivate windows after attempting to migrate desktop for Mac

    Hello. My question is this. I used to use a PC, but now I have a Mac. I wanted to be able to access my old configuration, files and programs via the mac PC. I was recommended an app called "Parallel Desktop". I downloaded a demo and followed the instructions: I have "migrated" 30 gigabytes of info from my old PC to the Mac and tried to replicate my old office through a "virtual machine". Unfortunately, I couldn't go to the windows installation. It does not accept the certificate of authenticity. I tried to solve the problem by phone, but has been disconnected once (by someone claiming that their system was down) and rejected a second time (a machine who kindly directed me to this site).

    So I wanted to ask: is there a way for me to be able to 'migrate' my office like claim in parallel? Is it a hoax? Is there a problem with the certificate of authenticity I use, which never gave me any problems before?

    thanx

    Is there a problem with the certificate of authenticity I use, which never gave me any problems before?

    If it came pre-installed, then Yes. OEM of Windows versions cannot be transferred to another machine...
