in order to run pc software on a mac, you would have to:
a. buy/find software called Parallels or VM Fusion. it would allow you to run PC and Mac application simultaneously. OR
b. partition your computer and install a PC OS (XP, Vista or whatever) to your computer. you would only be able to boot into 1 OS or the other (unlike above).

asked around on a couple dudes in this thread, no help. it's a secret cult or something.....
hope that helps, you basically have to download the trial and go to youtube and some people have links to a app that unlocks it.
Or get a discount from...someone

The guy on the phone asked me if I wanted to reformat it and I told him I needed to recover some files...
So is there anyway I can recover my documents, pictures, music, etc. ? (Keep in mind my mac won't start up)
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
i just dealt w/ this and my backup hard drive also broke ...
1 erase disk, run time machine if u have a backup
2 use disk utility and c if it mounts and run verify and repair disk ...
3 if it doesn't work which it sounds like it won't run ur macbook in target mode holding down T when it starts and hook up a firewire cable to another mac... this will treat ur macbook as an external hard drive and u can copy ur files over, erase ur hard drive and install leopard or snow leopard and use migration assistant after installation and delete the new user u created.
4 pay someone to do a data transfer... if that doesn't work then u have to do a data recovery if u really need ur stuff and u don't want to pay that
Hopefully the target disk mode works with this damn gray screen.

i know this doesnt necessarily have to do with mac or anythign like that but seems like there are a lot of tech heads in here
i have a WD External Harddrive...I recently dropped it (fml) and its making a clicking sound...
can i do any kind of recovery on my own or would i have to send it in or pay someone to do it for me?
It turns on but does not connect to a computer or the computer does not recognize it....
any help is appreciated...

If you're using VLC you can. Probably in other apps too but I'm not certain. As for VLC, select 'Video' from the taskbar, and then 'VideoDevice' and select the monitor you want the video on.

Even though you said no internet suggestions Craigslist and Apple refurbished computer might be your best bet.

Oh, man, y'all. I may or may not have just read through all 216 pages of this thread and I think I love each and everyone of you. I have so many questionsabout my Mac, but I'm also somewhat of a tool when it comes to this stuff. Is there someone in here that wouldn't mind maybe exchanging MSN accounts orlike, BBM or whatever kids today use to communicate to maybe help me out?
