What is needed to run apple OS and windows

Running Bootcamp on my macbook pro.   I'm not really care to start in one or the other.    What should I upgrade to what I can run them both?

If I remember well when I bought the Macbook, they have said that there is a way to run application MS Windows within apple, but need something... maybe it was to raise the RAM!

I understand that we cannot improve current macbook, but if I'm going to buy another macbook just want to know what to buy.

There are options such as Parallels virtualization. See http://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/mac-software/best-virtualisation-app-run-windo ws-on-your-mac-boot-camp-vmware-parallel...

  • What is the best antivirus when running both OSX and Windows 10?

    I have a new Macbook Pro running OSX El Capitan and 10 Windows via Parallels Desktop. I installed AVG Free on the Mac and Win 10 sides, however, it seems to be really stuck on side Windows - that is, he is always "up to date" and driving me crazy. Questions - a) do I need to run an antivirus software on both platforms? And someone has recommendations on programs that are better use? I have an active subscription to McAfee for Windows, I think I could install instead.

    Thanks for any input.

    McAfee, Norton, AVG, etc... They are OK. Usually, you get FREE antivirus software with your internet subscriber.

    Comcast gives you FREE Norton. Check with your site to internet subscribers to the FREE anti-virus software.

  • When do I need separate my apple ID and why?

    I've upgraded to the new software and erase content and settings on my iphone 5. I give this phone to my niece.

    I read to unlink the phone of your apple ID. I do?  I also added to my school & t with this phone family plan.

    Yes, except if you plan to give your niece your Apple ID and password to put in place.

    If you delete content and settings and seized our Apple ID at any time during this process so you already he dissociated from the iPhone, and you can do nothing else.

    The iPhone should now be on Hello screen, waiting to enter the Setup program again.

    The dissociation is important, so that the new user can configure the iPhone themselves under their own Apple ID, and none of your content is left on the iPhone or accessible from it.

  • Visio 2002 running on vista and windows 7

    I use Visio 2002 SP2 Professional at work.  I want to be able to continue the work home with her.  My wife and I have 2 laptops - 1 has Vista and the other is Windows 7.  Can I install Visio 2002 professional Service Pack 2 on cell phones or the other or both for use?  If I need a newer version, not the latest, what will work?

    Using the Windows 7 Compatibility Center and the Windows Vista Compatibility Center, they both show that you need to upgrade to another version of Visio to run on those computers. What operating system you use at work?

    You might be able to use the compatibility mode:

    If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

    Use the following steps:

    (1) right click on the program

    2) click Properties

    3) click on the Compatibility tab

    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

    If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.

    I hope this helps.

  • What VMWare used to run W2K Server in Windows Server 2008 x 64?

    We have recently replaced a 32-bit Windows Small Business Server with Standard Windows Server2008 x 64 but find that a particular database will not work on a 64 bit OS.

    The Publisher of the application said to run it on Windows Server 2000 or 2003 on a virtual machine, and we are just lucky to have a clean and unused copy of Windows Server 2000.

    I used MS VirtualPC, but have never used VMware.  Should what version of VMWare I use?  Preferably a free version?

    In addition, any info or links to information, which would help the installation process would allow me to save time and greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I don't really expect VMware Server 1 for work on Wk28 x 64... the product is not updated on this operating system.

    Windows 2008 is perhaps editable so that it will work... but then why bother using the new operating system if you pass on the new security model. The right way to go indeed uses VMware server 2 because it will also mean that you have a supported configuration.

    Where or where did I go wrong turn?  Was it because I was bottle fed as a child, or maybe when I turned my teacher of class 2 with a pistol to water... but I digress.

    The documentation that I found on the VMWare Web site does not appear to be any reference to the creation of a host name, the user name or the password during the Setup process.  Of course, I missed something along the line.

    VMware server 2 has all of its normal maintenance and the remote in the browser console.

    After installation you can access the console via https://127.0.0.1:8333

    Instead of localhost (127.0.0.1) address, you can also try the real IP address of the computer or host name.

    I expect that there is a menu option to access the management interface in the start menu under Windows 2008, but apparently not. Guess I have to implement on my both Win2008 box afterwards... The account to use to log on is the administrator account on your windows machine.

    No guidance to properly install VMWare Server 2 (or same v1), and then creating a new virtual machine would be appreciated.

    I suppose you start with something like "Everything first uninstall v1 and start v2 installation process".  Then what?

    Then try opening the administration interface of Vmware Server via the browser and if that doesn't work, post here.

  • Installation of Acrobat on a machine running Mac OS and Windows OS

    I have a new MacAir (Mountain Lion OS) and which will also have Windows 7 installed (via the Parallels software).  I want to install Adobe Acrobat XI (Standard preference, or Pro if necessary) so that I can print to PDF from any application, whether in Windows or Mac OS environment.  How to install Acrobat to achieve?  What I have to install twice, once in the Mac environment, then again in the Windows environment?  Or can I install Acrobat just in the Mac environment and make it appear as a print option in Windows applications?  Thank you.

    Can't do. Serials for the stand-alone products are platform specific. Yes, you must install it in the two environemnts, but according to the previous one, it is not possible unless you have 2 licenses. That said, if you want to print to PDF, there is enough of the free alternatives like GhostScript.
