Information about the wizard Boot Camp can be found here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/. Info on the use of a virtual machine can be found on the sites of Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox.

Hi, I have 3 computers on the network; two Vista and one running windows 7. The computer of windows 7 can be placed in the network map (and I seem to be unable to it remote desktop). This could be the cause? I tried everything in the help documentation. My router is a linksys 610n. Computers have no NVIDIA cards or controllers. Here's a screenshot of what I see in the network adapter:

I am running windows vista on the PC of my church and have inserted a USB stick with a MP4 file on it, but I can not read this file. Can I get help?
I created a video for our Church on a desktop of Windows 7 through Pinnacle Studio 14 (editor) and registered as a .mp4 file. I then put it on a flash drive and put the flash drive in the computer of the Church, that is running Windows Vista, and the file will not play. Please provide help quickly!

I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off.
I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off when the charger is plugged after about 10 to 15 minutes. If I shine a torch on the screen, I see about the display is always. If I select change user from the menu start or stop / restart the machine, the backlight turns on and will last for another 10 to 15 minutes. I tried in safe mode and the same thing happens. Can someone help me with this problem?
It could be the inverter Board or the backlight itself on the way to the outside. Whatever it is, it is definitely a hardware problem and it will take a good repairman to fix. You can contact Dell and see what they would charge to fix this, just to see if it would be more cost-effective to buy a new laptop or have it repaired. Because it is 5 years since it is manufacturing, you can be better to save your pennies for a new :-(

* Original title: reinstalling Windows Vista
I tried to format the C drive and then reinstall Windows Vista using the windows reinstall disk but I couldn't start in it. I restarted my computer, press the F12 key and selected boot from cd/dvd, but the computer still started in windows. My computer is Dell. If there is no solution, it is possible to reinstall windows without using the disc?
Hello
Here are the options of relocation:

You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

Hello!
I am running windows xp sp3, the volume icon disappears from the taskbar on each reboot or shutdown/startup.kindly, help with any permanent solution known.i should go to the control panel and to recover it again whenever I turn my on.kindly advice, someone machine me a solution permanently this problem.i want to stay always on the taskbar the volume icon.
the honest answer is expected... Thank you!Hello
Try this:
Control Panel - device - sounds Manager - note manufacturer device name and info on the graduating model.
Double click and get the date and version of the driver (if 06 are dates, you use the default windows driver). Now
Click the DRIVER UPDATE (this can not find anything because MS is far behind the certification of drivers). Now LAW
CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.Now, go to the manufacturer of the system and recover the last pilot audio/Hi-Fi as a fall.
Download it - SAVE - go to where you put it - RIGHT CLICK top - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT
Now do the same for the manufacturer of the device (the one that made the device - if you were using the default windows
you might need to look in the Device Manager - his new driver).Often, you will need to run the sound card drivers several times to get the latest version installed and will appear in
Manager - Sound. This is because they make back the drivers one at a time and then finally install the
most recent. Look in the Device Manager to be sure that you have installed the version of the driver is the one showing, if not
run the driver again (reset each time) until the shows a correct.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

problems with wireless Vista "local only".
How is it that some machines running windows vista, when the router is updated or changed, they show "limited or local only" when you then reconnect wireless... nothing else was changed on those computers and other devices can connect ok?Hello
Each router is assigned to the specific address (called IP address or IP address). And each router maintains its own database (called as base of router) to follow the networking devices communicate with him. When the router is changed, the particular router is unable to detect the device, especially the network card to communicate with the computer. Since he does not have details of the database of network devices, communicate with him.

I tried to install cs3 on windows 10 shadow run on my mac book pro. Technical support told me that it does not run on windows 10 but doesn't give me an opinion on whether she would go if I was running windows 7 to the people's Summit. Any thoughts?
First of all, that the software is old enough so that it does not at all with Windows 10... but

Is it safe to remove files from my macbook air now that I have set up my time capsule and backed up with time machine? My boot drive is full. How can I access files of my time capsule once they are deleted from my computer?
1 n ° put them on a regular external drive and the value of Time Machine to back up as well; the files you want to keep should be at least two disks in case one of them goes down.
2. they will not be usable until the restoration.

You have two activations and no more. If you need to register a third party, you will need to purchase another package. Yes, the installers can be copied to any media that you consider appropriate.

Video of the MacBook Air to accuse by unplugged (current running off battery)
Hello. I have a Macbook Air from 2012. The Macbook works perfectly fine when it is plugged, but the minute I unplug the unit, some video that I might be streaming suddenly freezes, even if sometimes the audio is not yet. Weird. The battery works, even if it runs in less than an hour. It has a cycle of 657 counter. The battery health is diagnosed as being 'good '. Anyone know why this is happening and what I can do about it?
Thank you.
Apparently, the MacBook Air is electric rationing of the battery through the
all of the GPU, CPU, free wireless internet, open, applications and requirements
Mac OS x itself; so many invisible things are underway in the background.
Have you looked into the specifications of profile of electrical system and battery
where the status of the battery is spelled in milli-ampere-hour charge remaining
and expected full load capacity?
I imagine that the battery can be replaced; also if SSD drive
is full of stored content, the effort it takes the system to find the space
for swap files and read/write then in the storage disk, is your MB/Air tax.
Maybe an upgrade of the hard drive (SSD) ability is something to check
in (if it is possible to upgrade) or just be sure to not have much stored on board.
A replacement may be obtained from the macsales, OWC, among others.
Also make sure that the MagSafe connectors are clean and free of debris on both sides
the AC adapter and the DC-in Board (on the computer).

There is also perhaps adware or other software that affect the performance of the Mac;
