Use the iMac with bootcamp as a monitor
Dear community,
Currently, I use my windows desktop pc, and I would use my iMac (24 inch end 2010) as a second monitor. The iMac runs on bootcamp and the apple partition is unfortunately broken. This means that I can only use windows on my iMac. Now, I want to use the iMac as my second monitor. Should what cable I buy to make it work? And how do I use target mode on windows (can not enter my Mac partition...)? I'm a little worried about buying bad cables. If anyone knows how to solve this problem, I would greatly appreciate your help!
Sorry for my English, if you don't understand something just ask me.
Kind regards
Antonie Muijtjens

Using an iMac with BootCamp as a screen of a Windows computer?
Hey everybody,
I was wondering if it is possible to use an iMac with BootCamp installed as a screen for a Windows laptop. If so, is there something I should know about the complexity of this solution and its sensitivity to errors etc. ?
Or, assuming that it does not work, does anyone know alternatives (Parallels very probably wouldn't be enough in my case)?
Thank you

I use an iMac with a wrong as a monitor graphics card?
The graphics card on my iMac went wrong. The logic board is OK and works otherwise OK. Can I use the iMac with the graphics card bad as a second monitor in target disk Mode or use it as a monitor for a mac mini? The bad iMac is a model 2011 (of course!) with HDMI ports and Thunderbolt.
I think you mean that the Display Mode target and any connection to the screen will have to pass by the graphics card. Whereas if you replace the bad graphics card, don't.

using the iMac 27 inch mid 2011 as an external monitor with a PC via mini DisplayPort
I find conflicting information via web search to be able to use my iMac 27 inches, mid-2011 as an external monitor with a PC. Is it possible to use the iMac as an external display via the Display Mode target between Thunderbolt port of the iMac with a PC equipped with a mini DisplayPort?
Of course, I hear it's possible with the appropriate cable. But if it is not possible, I would like to know for sure.
Thanks in advance for your help with this. _henry

I am currently using Lightroom 4. I bought the IMac with the largest memory, but he has quickly filled. To conserve space on my computer, I bought a hard drive and I tried to get my lightroom back up there. (I don't know if I did it correctly or not) Now, all my photos in Lightroom are "offline or missing", and I have no idea what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I guess you mean not memory and disk space, you want to clear space on the internal drive. Is this correct?
If you have moved your photos somehow (this is not a backup), please follow these instructions to reconnect photos in Lightroom. Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing
In addition, you must (it is obligatory) make real backups of your database catalog and photos, that means accurate identical copies, made by a method automated and placed on a different physical disk than the originals. Lightroom allows you to make backups of your files of catalog on a regular basis, it is an option under the catalog settings. To make backups of your photos, you need some third party software to do.

I can't synchronize my iTunes on the iMac with my iPhone
After the update to iOs 9.2.1 on my iPhone, I can't synchronize my iTunes on the iMac with my iPhone. My iMac uses Os X 10.6.8 version.
I never had any problem before synchronization I updated my iPhone iOs. Could someone advise me? Thank you!
iOS9 on a mobile device requires iTunes 12.3 or higher, which in turn requires a computer running OSX 10.8.5 or higher. Update of the system only checks the updates for the current version of system you run, but as he himself is very obsolete. It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the system requirements:
You can either buy a download for Apple OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion code online, or you can try to install the free El Capitan OSX 10.11. El Capitan can run slower on older machines and require the additional purchase of RAM. Making a big jump in versions of system is also more likely to affect the old software.
At el capitan Snow Leopard, it will make my macbook is slow? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7412959
Mountain Lion 10.8 purchase link - http://www.apple.com/shop/product/D6377Z/A/os-x-mountain-lion
Course OSX Upgrade General information, including configuration required - http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
If you have any generation of PPC software which works under OSX 10.6 it is not supported in later versions of the system.

My Firefox support says "If you have the Firefox browser on your computer when your HP SimplePass Identity Protection software is installed, a Firefox extension will also be installed which enables support for the use of the fingerprints with the browser Firefox." Once I updated to Firefox 4 it no longer works.

Satellite A300 - how to use the recovery with external DVD drive disc?
Hello
I bought a toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 d
FTM the tsscorp drive that is installed in the camera no longer works (does not detect any type of media what so ever). ) need to recover the laptop, so I used a USB DVD drive to boot from the restore disc, but after that the charges of recovery console it says waiting for media in the f: drive, which is the tsscorp drive although I used an external drive to load the disc.
What files should I edit to make it to load from the drive externally and if this isn't the solution, what do I do?
Thanks in advance
Hey Buddy,
Unfortunately I think that it of not possible to use the recovery with external CD/DVD drive disc. Therefore, place the internal for use the recovery disc.
You can get a new drive to an authorized service provider.But if the original OS from Toshiba is installed, you can use the function of disk recovery HARD reinstall Windows as well. Go to the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer :)
