Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

I would give amadeus pro a try, the more you can get away from Windows, 
the better.

Original message:

I would just like to thank people for their various opinions which have been
very helpful.



I have been thinking about this all day, and I think I am going to give the
virtual machine a try, especially as from what I have read here, I ought to
be able to do it alone. This machine has 16 GB of ram in it, it's brand new,
so it has to be worth a shot at least.
If it really does not work on the audio side with my audio production
software, that might just cajole me into using Amadeus Pro.




Thanks to everyone again.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread Eileen Misrahi
I have been reading all of the posts here and tried on different occasions to 
respond. For other tech reasons that I don’t think is necessary for this 
thread, I’ll put my 2 sense in about BootCamp and what I needed to do to 
install it myself. Before I start, I want to suggest to listen to a podcast on 
CoolBlindTech regarding Wininstaller. It’s a software program that will provide 
one with a talking installer for Windows. I did not go that route, since I am 
still not fully confident in advance skills on the Mac side. I used the 
following apps to install Win 8.0 with no (sort of) sighted assistance. They 
include KNFB Reader, BeMyEyes, the Applevis guidelines, and Facetime. Here is 
what I found that helped me. 

1. The Applevis guidelines was sort of helpful. The dialog pages when 
installing Win 8.0 didn’t pair up with the information written in the 
guidelines. Hence, you need to be careful on which keystroke you used and 
where. That said, the keystrokes when matched to the correct dialog page were 
very helpful. 
2. When using the KNFB Reader, I first increased the brightness of the Mac’s 
screen to 100%. This gave me very accurate results in the image scan with KNFB. 
It also allowed me to locate the precise section in the Applevis guideline text 
for the correct keystrokes to use. 
3. I used BeMyEyes to confirm the 04 bootcamp drive. Since this is a critical 
point in the installation, I didn’t want to reformat the wrong disk. I  also 
had the individual assist me in the confirmation of the advance button in disk 
options and the format button at this point. I did that because I had the 
sighted person on the other end. 
4. However, I had some difficulties in accessing the next button. It was 
located in the lower right hand corner and the only method to access it was 
with the trackpad.
5. I contacted an AT sighted  buddy of mine through Facetime and  with his 
guidance in which direction to move my finger on the mouse, I was able to 
select the next button and left click on it. It was a challenge, but very 
rewarding knowing that I was able to install Win 8.0 on my own. My AT friend 
learn something that he may be able to use in the future to assist someone else 
that wants to install Windows into BootCamp, but does not have sighted 
assistance available. 

Sorry for this long reply, but I thought others would like to know my creative 
resolution to a task that is really not accessible to the visually impaired to 
complete without sighted assistance. HTH. 

Warmest regards, 
Eileen

 Personally if I started from scratch on a new Mac I would not bother with 
 Boot Camp and would rely upon Fusion.
 I think it is 2 years since I  booted into Boot Camp.
 
 Having said that there are some reasons why you may need Boot camp.
 1. Hardware support. It is possible that some hardware will not necessarily 
 play nicely with Fusion. Mainstream devices should be fine but for example I 
 could never get my specialist VIP hardware EyePal scanner to work under 
 Fusion. As I now use this on a Windows machine this does not matter for me 
 but may be an issue if Fusion is your only Windows option.
 2. Resources. Actually I find a Fusion Virtual Machine pretty fast on a Mac 
 but theoretically all resources are available to a Boot Camp install so 
 should be more powerful. However as I say my Fusion installs seem fast enough 
 and certainly boots up faster than Boot Camp. I would recommend that if you 
 go the Fusion route you modify at the outset the Ram and processor cores 
 available to your Fusion VM  as the default is pretty skimpy. Actually if you 
 go the Boot camp route you should also increase the max disk space allocated

 It is important to in Fusion that you settle down your processor core and 
 memory allocation at the beginning as otherwise this will create possible 
 activation issues for your windows install and certainly Jaws. I routinely 
 use NVDA until this is all sorted out.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread David Griffith
Personally if I started from scratch on a new Mac I would not bother 
with Boot Camp and would rely upon Fusion.

I think it is 2 years since I  booted into Boot Camp.

Having said that there are some reasons why you may need Boot camp.
1. Hardware support. It is possible that some hardware will not 
necessarily play nicely with Fusion. Mainstream devices should be fine 
but for example I could never get my specialist VIP hardware EyePal 
scanner to work under Fusion. As I now use this on a Windows machine 
this does not matter for me but may be an issue if Fusion is your only 
Windows option.
2. Resources. Actually I find a Fusion Virtual Machine pretty fast on a 
Mac but theoretically all resources are available to a Boot Camp install 
so should be more powerful. However as I say my Fusion installs seem 
fast enough and certainly boots up faster than Boot Camp. I would 
recommend that if you go the Fusion route you modify at the outset the 
Ram and processor cores available to your Fusion VM  as the default is 
pretty skimpy. Actually if you go the Boot camp route you should also 
increase the max disk space allocated as this is also skimpy by default.


It is important to in Fusion that you settle down your processor core 
and memory allocation at the beginning as otherwise this will create 
possible activation issues for your windows install and certainly Jaws. 
I routinely use NVDA until this is all sorted out.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread Sarah k Alawami
Hello. I'm limited on what I can answer per the guidelines of the list, but I 
personally love vmware fusion as I can flip between operating systems, how 
ever, I have a radio that takes a serial connection and for me Vmware does not 
play nice. That's the only disadvantage of vmware for me.

bootcamp is quite easy to install with out site. I modified an applevis guide 
to make it a bit easier to read. I'll email that to you off list so as not to 
get in to trouble. If I don't get to it by next week fire me an email off list 
and remind me. I'm going out of town on business, but I will  get that to you 
soon.

The other disadvantage btw about boot camp is  if you need to shrink the 
partition, let's say you made it too big, I have not found a way to do it in 
such a way to reallocate safely, but I could be wrong. I'm still learning the 
mac and all it can do after 5 years  owning one, and that's way cool! I'm not 
known for my long replies so with that I hope that helps.

Blessings and happy Sunday.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Yeah, William, if people have spent the $99 to buy it.  Plus, KNFB reader 
doesn't really do that great, in my personal experience, with reading 
computer monitors.  Plus, the buttons like Next, and Cancel, etc have 
underlined letters so you know what key to hit with your alt key.  KNFB 
isn't gonna tell you what those underlined hotkey letters are.  Plus, If you 
wanted to use the mouse to get through the installer, KNFB isn't going to be 
able to direct your mouse pointer to where you need to click.


I see where you're going with this, but it would probably be more headache 
than it's worth.  You'd probably do better with Be My Eyes, although, 
lately, I'm not so convinced of that after the problem that every one of my 
I O S devices seem to be having according to the sighted vollenteers.  But, 
that's for another post.

Brian,

I'm unsure if they would help you installing Windows.  It's really hard to
say.  I think it would be up to their disgression.  Most likely though,
they'd probably not.  They'd probaby help you get the Bootcamp partition 
set

up, but that would be about the end of it.  Again though.  I'd call them.
It doesn't hurt to try.  The least they'd do is say no, so I don't wanna
discourage you from giving it a shot.

As for the advantages and disadvantages, it really just depends on what
you're doing.  The biggest thing is, with Bootcamp, you're booted directly
into Windows on its own partition.  With VMWare Fusion or the like, the
issue you're going to face is, for one thing, it'll take a little more 
work,

as certain keys on the keyboard will have to be remapped to work correctly
within Windows, it's not a big deal, just a little tedious.  Plus, realize
that then, you'll be using system resources both for OSX and for Windows 
at

the same time.  Again, it depends on how processor intense and how memory
intense the stuff in Windows can be that you need to accomplish.

Me personally?  I use Bootcamp, but yeah... that's just me personally.
Plus, with me being an audio engineer, I don't want any of my Windows 
stuff

touching my mac partition.  But again, I'm weird that way.

Chris.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

Brian,

I'm unsure if they would help you installing Windows.  It's really hard to 
say.  I think it would be up to their disgression.  Most likely though, 
they'd probably not.  They'd probaby help you get the Bootcamp partition set 
up, but that would be about the end of it.  Again though.  I'd call them. 
It doesn't hurt to try.  The least they'd do is say no, so I don't wanna 
discourage you from giving it a shot.


As for the advantages and disadvantages, it really just depends on what 
you're doing.  The biggest thing is, with Bootcamp, you're booted directly 
into Windows on its own partition.  With VMWare Fusion or the like, the 
issue you're going to face is, for one thing, it'll take a little more work, 
as certain keys on the keyboard will have to be remapped to work correctly 
within Windows, it's not a big deal, just a little tedious.  Plus, realize 
that then, you'll be using system resources both for OSX and for Windows at 
the same time.  Again, it depends on how processor intense and how memory 
intense the stuff in Windows can be that you need to accomplish.


Me personally?  I use Bootcamp, but yeah... that's just me personally. 
Plus, with me being an audio engineer, I don't want any of my Windows stuff 
touching my mac partition.  But again, I'm weird that way.


Chris.

Hi



I received my first Mac on Saturday. I have done a lot of studying and I
think I am quite proficient at the screen-reading with it.



However, I am very undecided about whether to use Windows with Bootcamp or
with VMWare. For my work, I do need to use Windows. This is a high spec
machine so I wanted to take advantage of that. But I have some questions.



I like the idea of having VMWare, so I can flick between different
operating systems. However, precisely please what are the advantages of
running it in Bootcamp as opposed to a virtual machine? If I ran it as a
Virtual Machine, what disadvantages would I notice? For example, would 
there

be any kind of delay when using a Windows screen-reader?



My other question relates to installing Windows. I've read a lot, and 
there

does not seem to be an easy way described with complete accuracy as to how
to install Windows without vision. This may seem like a strange question,
but if I booked an appointment at an Apple store to get some sighted help,
is that good etiquette? Are they likely to say no because I need to

Windows?

I have the MacBook Pro, external keyboard and the Apple Superdrive which I

Wow, this is a good thread! The other thing that should be considered is the 
cost. I'd have to look it up, but I remember VMWare Fusion costing some 
money. I believe it was somewhere around fifty bucks or so in USD. I don't 
know if Bootcamp costs anything, being that its capabilities are built into 
OSX as far as I know. I could be basse-ackwards on this, but that's what 
I've heard.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread gs
Disk space can be adjusted so there is no need to allocate more than necessary. 
with regard to Fusion

When I first switched to the Mac, I was convinced that I would really need 
bootcamp so I got everything ready, setup the bootcamp so that it was ready for 
the Windows install, and headed off to the Apple Store to try to get them to 
help me.  I was able to do so but it was with reluctance. They told me they 
were not supposed to help me install Windows, and I think if I had not been 
completely prepared, they would not have done so. I wouldn't count on that kind 
of assistance, and I doubt it has anything to do with whether one is in the UK 
or anywhere else. Still, it might be worth a try if you are desperate which I 
was.

Before I installed bootcamp, I had purchased VMWare Fusion since I knew I could 
install Windows unassisted. So I already had Fusion and Windows running. I 
admit that the bootcamp version of Windows ran better than the virtual machine, 
but the virtual machine runs well enough and has improved with updated versions 
of Fusion.

Within a month or so, I decided to remove the bootcamp partition for two 
reasons: 1. I have a Macbook Air with only 256 GB of SSD, and 2. I really like 
the ability to use both the Mac OS and Windows simultaneously. This was more 
important than the ability too boot into Windows. So I removed bootcamp to 
reclaim some space. I generally have not regretted removing the bootcamp 
partition. Fusion works well enough for my Windows. needs

Personally if I started from scratch on a new Mac I would not bother with Boot

I think it is 2 years since I  booted into Boot Camp.

Having said that there are some reasons why you may need Boot camp.
1. Hardware support. It is possible that some hardware will not necessarily 
play nicely with Fusion. Mainstream devices should be fine but for example I 
could never get my specialist VIP hardware EyePal scanner to work under Fusion. 
As I now use this on a Windows machine this does not matter for me but may be 
an issue if Fusion is your only Windows option.
2. Resources. Actually I find a Fusion Virtual Machine pretty fast on a Mac but 
theoretically all resources are available to a Boot Camp install so should be 
more powerful. However as I say my Fusion installs seem fast enough and 
certainly boots up faster than Boot Camp. I would recommend that if you go the 
Fusion route you modify at the outset the Ram and processor cores available to 
your Fusion VM  as the default is pretty skimpy. Actually if you go the Boot 
camp route you should also increase the max disk space allocated as this is 
also skimpy by default.

It is important to in Fusion that you settle down your processor core and 
memory allocation at the beginning as otherwise this will create possible 
activation issues for your windows install and certainly Jaws. I routinely use 
NVDA until this is all sorted out.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread Mike Arrigo
I would use fusion for several reasons. First, you can install windows 
totally without sighted help, there is a quick install where you 
provide either the DVD or an ISO of Windows, tell it the product key 
and Fusion does the rest. Second, as you said, you can switch between 
the 2 operating systems without having to reboot. Finally, your Windows 
virtual machine is stored in one file, so it's really easy to back up. 
If something happens to it, just copy and replace it from a backup. 
About the only disadvantage with Fusion is that not all of your 
resources will be used by Windows, but if it's a high end machine, you 
shouldn't notice any delays.

Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion

2015-04-27 Thread Brian Hartgen
I would just like to thank people for their various opinions which have been
very helpful.

I have been thinking about this all day, and I think I am going to give the
virtual machine a try, especially as from what I have read here, I ought to
be able to do it alone. This machine has 16 GB of ram in it, it's brand new,
so it has to be worth a shot at least.
If it really does not work on the audio side with my audio production
software, that might just cajole me into using Amadeus Pro.


Thanks to everyone again.

 Hi
 
 
 
 I received my first Mac on Saturday. I have done a lot of studying 
 and I think I am quite proficient at the screen-reading with it.
 
 
 
 However, I am very undecided about whether to use Windows with 
 Bootcamp or with VMWare. For my work, I do need to use Windows. This 
 is a high spec machine so I wanted to take advantage of that. But I have
some questions.
 
 
 
 I like the idea of having VMWare, so I can flick between different 
 operating systems. However, precisely please what are the advantages 
 of running it in Bootcamp as opposed to a virtual machine? If I ran 
 it as a Virtual Machine, what disadvantages would I notice? For 
 example, would there be any kind of delay when using a Windows
screen-reader?
 
 
 
 My other question relates to installing Windows. I've read a lot, and 
 there does not seem to be an easy way described with complete 
 accuracy as to how to install Windows without vision. This may seem 
 like a strange question, but if I booked an appointment at an Apple

 likely to say no because I need to install Windows?
 
 I have the MacBook Pro, external keyboard and the Apple Superdrive

 Brian,
 
 I'm unsure if they would help you installing Windows.  It's really hard to
 say.  I think it would be up to their disgression.  Most likely though,
 they'd probably not.  They'd probaby help you get the Bootcamp partition set
 up, but that would be about the end of it.  Again though.  I'd call them.
 It doesn't hurt to try.  The least they'd do is say no, so I don't wanna
 discourage you from giving it a shot.
 
 As for the advantages and disadvantages, it really just depends on what
 you're doing.  The biggest thing is, with Bootcamp, you're booted directly
 into Windows on its own partition.  With VMWare Fusion or the like, the
 issue you're going to face is, for one thing, it'll take a little more work,
 as certain keys on the keyboard will have to be remapped to work correctly
 within Windows, it's not a big deal, just a little tedious.  Plus, realize
 that then, you'll be using system resources both for OSX and for Windows at
 the same time.  Again, it depends on how processor intense and how memory
 intense the stuff in Windows can be that you need to accomplish.
 
 Me personally?  I use Bootcamp, but yeah... that's just me personally.
 Plus, with me being an audio engineer, I don't want any of my Windows stuff
 touching my mac partition.  But again, I'm weird that way.
 
 Chris.

Hello

This response makes absolutely no sense to me I’m afraid.  But in any event, 
let’s not continue this thread too much because this is a OS X list, not a 
Windows one.  The specifics of installing Windows are for another forum.

Kindest regards

Re: Bootcamp

2014-07-18 Thread Gordon Smith
Lew

I’m somewhat behind on mail.  Is it possible, is that what you’re implying 
here, to install Windows 7/8 under Boot Camp without assistance?  I was under 
the impression that this was system-specific so wouldn’t always work reliably.  
For instance, selecting the partition to format when there are multiple drives 
in the system such as a Mac Pro installation, I’d have thought that would 
change the sequence?

Kindest regards

RE: Bootcamp

2014-07-18 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello, 

Gordon, you can tell me if I am OT, but Applevis recently posted a podcast on 
how to install Windows in Bootcamp using a talking installer from 
bryansmart.com. I wish I had this when I was going through the process about 4 
months ago. Fortunately, I had sighted assistance. Otherwise, I probably would 
have gotten myself into a mess. HTH.

I’m somewhat behind on mail.  Is it possible, is that what you’re implying 
here, to install Windows 7/8 under Boot Camp without assistance?  I was under 
the impression that this was system-specific so wouldn’t always work reliably.  
For instance, selecting the partition to format when there are multiple drives 
in the system such as a Mac Pro installation, I’d have thought that would 
change the sequence?

Kindest regards

RE: Bootcamp

2014-07-14 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hi, 

I am 99% sure that the bootcamp partition is located in the 4th position.
However, once you begin the installation of Windows, you will have no
speech, hence needing sighted assistance. At one point, I did read the
article posted up on Applevis to install 
Windows without sight, but my steps and the amount of tabs didn't match up,
as reported by my assistant helping me to install Windows. Also, I'm not
sure which OSX you are using, but I am running Mountain Lion. And began with
Win 8.0 original single licensed disk and bootcamp for one reason or another
didn't like it. I needed to create an ISO on the desktop and run bootcamp
from the ISO disk instead of the disk. I did keep the disk in the external
DVD player and that's where Win 8.0 was installed from. It was the oddest
thing, but it worked. Just giving you my recent experience with it all. HTH
and good luck. 

Eileen

RE: Bootcamp

2014-07-14 Thread David Griffith
We may get in trouble for talking about this on this list but no the Mac has
to restart into the Boot camp partition and then you have to have your
Windows OS disc / drive ready for the installation of Windows as normal.
Unlike the Mac OS this process is not generally accessible unless you enter
the realms of unattended installs or remember keystrokes so it is probably
best to get sighted help.

You probably need to go onto the windows access or tech list to pursue this
more.

2014-06-07 Thread richie Gardenhire
Perhaps it's no longer there, since at the time, Tiger was the OS  
circulating.  That said, when I checked a while back, it was still  
there, but I'm not sure now if it's still there, since I guess they  
can only keep podcasts on up to a certain time limit, sort of like the  
statute of limitations for certain laws.  LOL...

RE: Bootcamp

2014-06-05 Thread David Griffith
I think a lot of us try hard to help others on this list but that is not all
that we do. Sometimes we only have time to give a brief answer.

Most of , if not all of the basic questions for clarifications people ask
for could be resolved by a simple Google search.  I understand that some
people may find a Google search difficult but To criticise those on the list
who try to help for lack of application and effort is I think completely
wrong.  This is most especially the case when often listers asking questions
have clearly not even bothered  to take the effort to learn how to research
an issue on Google or perhaps Wikipedia themselves.Those of us who try
to help by answering questions most often do so patiently despite this
obvious lack of effort so it does not fit well with me when, fairly
bizarrely,  people trying to help are criticised for lack of effort. I am
happy to spoon feed information and if necessary consult Google and
Wikipedia and other sources for answers on others behalf  but I do not think
any of us have the right to demand more from list members who are only, in
the end,  trying to help.

Re: Bootcamp

2014-06-05 Thread Phil Halton
Fusion is an app that allows you to run other operating systems, like windows, 
on your Mac. It is a viable alternative to installing windows on the mac via 
the Bootcamp utility. 
With bootcamp, you have to split you hard disk into logical partitions and 
install the windows OS on one of those dedicated partitions, and then select 
which OS you want to run at boot up time. You’ll also need a sighted assistant 
to do the windows installation. 
With fusion, you don’t do any partitioning, and you don’t have to boot up into 
one or the other OS, you can just switch between Mac and Windows as you would 
switch between any other set of programs on your mac. Also, the installation 
can be done without sighted assistance. 
.

BTW: in the time it took you to chastise  the woman, you could have written out 
a simple paragraph explaining the basics of Fusion vs Bootcamp.
I also don’t care much for the “one-liner” type of answers. It reminds me of 
the people, kids mostly, who are just too cool to speak clearly and plainly, or 
give a full answer to a reasonable question. I mean, why bothering answering at 
all if you can’t give it a decent effort? A neighbor once told me when I was 
shoveling her walk, “just because you’re doing me a favor doesn’t mean you can 
do a crappy job”.
Oh well, just my two cents worth. I turn sixty in a few months and this is what 
happens when you get old and opinionated.

Fusion is a way of running Windows on a Mac,  it means that you can run
Windows within the Mac session itself.

I googled Windows Fusion for Mac  and came up with the following page which
should answer most of your questions.

Not on the Mac side but I suspect you still will on the Windows install

Fusion can handle all this nicely for you on the Mac though.

downloading bootcamp drivers a no go?

2014-03-03 Thread Sarah k Alawami
Ok, it's been 3 years since I've done this. I'm stuck  at the first step as I 
want to dl the drivers for the boot camp thingy. don't worry I will not discuss 
setting up windows on the list. *smiles*

I tried to dl the windows drivers apple needs to run the boot camp  software 
and I have the drive formatted properly. I get this though when I attempt to  
dl the drivers.

Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the 
Software Update server.

I am fully aware my mac only supports win7 and that's fine as that's all I 
have. lol! I also checked the apple support forums and they are suggesting to 
dl the drivers on to another mac. Well, I don't have another mac. I've been 
trying  since yesterday to get this done and it has not happened. 

Any advice besides try again. I already did with the same results. I'm fine 
after this step as I can just follow the prompts and ask any further questions 
on the windows access list.

Take care.

Hi there,

May be I can help you out. I am running ML 10.8.5. I have been able to download

I'll try to send it. I won't discuss my frustrations trying to install Win 8

Ihear they are universal, but not doing this for 3 years has not done me any

I'll wait until I get an affirmative before going ahead with that.

configuring bootcamp for windows seven

2013-02-06 Thread William Lomas
hi all i am trying to get my internal flash dis of the air to configure for the 
bootcamp program. i have used a USB drive to put windows on and the support 
software and now when i run the utility it bought i could partition my existing 
internal HD 
it states though can do this as some files can't be moved, use disc utility to 
make it a single partition but it is?
any thought please?

when i use bootcamp on my macbook air

2013-02-06 Thread William Lomas
hi all i am trying to put windows on my mac using a USB flash drive where the 
ISO of seven is copied. i get this error though when i load up the bootcamp 
assistant to free some space on my internal mac drive
The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved.
Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended 
(Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot 
Camp Assistant again.
it is not partitioned, the internal disc?
any ideas please

RE: configuring bootcamp for windows seven

2013-02-06 Thread David Griffith
You may not find this advice that useful but I spent a lot of time and
frustration trying to set up a working boot camp partition on my I-Mac.
There were too many problems to list here.
The point is that after spending all this time to set Boot camp up,  I never
use it, particularly as the default environment is very restricted ,
especially with regards to disk space. It also takes an absolute age to
switch from one environment to another. Windows 7 Boot camp on my Imac
takes ages to load. Putting Boot camp on has slowed my Mac start-up as well.
I am seriously thinking of  getting rid of it. It is staying just for the
unforeseen sod's law that if I get rid of it there will be a reason emerge
which means that I should not have done it.

If I ever need Windows on my Mac I use Fusion which is simple to set up
without the restrictions of partition size etc.
Increasingly though I use the Mac for Mac stuff and a Windows Laptop, which
I am on now for work and Windows stuff.  When I got my Mac I saw it as a
holy grail to get a single all in  one singing and dancing multi-operating
system.   In practice , given how cheap windows machines are I think  it is
not a route I would now recommend.   The only possible exception would be a
fusion set up which can be convenient for occasional windows usage.  I would
stick to using your Mac for Mac OS, at which it is very good, rather than
Mac for Windows which it is, in my view, very flaky.

Re: Can SuperDuper backup a bootcamp partition

Hi Phil,

SuperDuper! and Carbon Copy Cloner can backup a Bootcamp partition, but it

the combination of CCC and Winclone is used by some Bootcamp users, but I don't 
know about SuperDuper! + Winclone.

HTH. Cheers,

Windows 7 bootcamp installation guide

2012-09-24 Thread Phil Halton
Would anyone on list who has installed windows7 via bootcamp care to write 
up a little guide for those of us who are about to take the plunge? It 
wouldn't have to be anything too elaborate. I'd just like to know what I'm 
getting into before wading in. Particularly, what is the step-by-step 
procedure, and at what points will I be in need of sighted assistance? I 
plan to install windows 7 64-bit edition on a late 2011 iMac QuadCore I5 
with 8gb ram and 500GB HD.


Is this something I can do without sighted assistance?

Thanks for any help.

Re: Windows 7 bootcamp installation guide

2012-09-24 Thread Gordon, Lynne Tracy
Hello Phil

Since this isn't really on topic for Mac Access, and I will explain why, it 
really isn't a thread for this group. The reason this isn't on topic is that 
Windows 7 installation under Boot Camp is exactly the same as Windows 7 
installation on your PC.  Therefore, in no respect other than the fact that the 
hardware platform happens to be Apple, is this a Mac related topic.

I'm sorry to be so strict, but we cannot afford to have this kind of traffic 
populating the group as we are Mac OS and iOS only. Configuration of Boot Camp 
itself is on topic; but *not* the installation of Windows. By all means join 
our sister groups, Techno-Chat and Windows-Access and discuss these topics if 
you wish.

Partisions VMWare fusion, bootcamp fresh installs.

2012-09-08 Thread Danny Noonan
Ok, the new ability to have caps lock as a modifier in both OS10 and Windows 
under VM Fusion has decided me to get back those few windows programs and 
functions that I've been missing since moving over. 

I'm after suggestions on the safest and most effective way to plan for and 
carry out a fresh install of Mountain Lion whilst keeping data and as much of 
my settings intact as possible.

I have an early 2011 MBP, own CCC, have a 1.5TB external that I can freshly 
format as well as owning a copy of Windows 7 and soon VMWare Fusion.. This 
seems to be most if not all of what I require but I don't want to miss some 
simple step and find I've walked into a mine field through ignorance.

Any suggestions on C.Y.A, process and order of steps  on or off list very 
gratefully appreciated.

Kind regards,
Danny:

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-03 Thread Mrs. Lynnette Annabel Smith
Hello Zack

I have been participating in, and watching this thread and I have a query. My 
understanding is that, if you want to backup a BC partition from the mac you'd 
have to use a sector-level backup utility. I don't think either Super Duper! or 
CCC will allow you to do that because as I understand it they don't backup at 
the sector level, only files. After much effort and frustrations Gordon has 
managed to make me understand the various things involved in the way a hard 
drive works. And I now have a working, although by no means full, understanding 
of the various differences between things like sectors and clusters, and the 
different types of partition tables. My understanding is that a FAT or NTFS 
partition wouldn't be backed up by a standard Mac based backup utility.  I know 
that's true of Super Duper! because it makes it very clear that it does not 
backup the system and temporary files which Apple recommends not to back up; 
let alone effectively alien partition types.

Yes, if you have a VM in Fusion which is to all intents and purposes a file set 
within the Mac HD, that's going to be backed up by CCC or Super Duper! But a 
Boot Camp partition is not; that's my understanding anyway. I'm no expert and 
please correct me if I am wrong. But that is my limited understanding.

You're quite correct.  CCC or SuperDuper would not back up any bootcamp 
partition, you'd need another  backup utility to do that.  I'm not sure what

This is probably a good argument in favor of single-file VM configurations, but

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-03 Thread Mrs. Lynnette Annabel Smith
hello Zack

And the point I was trying to make here, but neglected too was that even if you 
used Fusion and ran your instance of Windows from that using your BC partition 
which, I am sure, is perfectly possible, that wouldn't enable you to back up 
the Windows install any more easily. So you'd be looking at a re-installation 
of Windows using a virtual hard drive which, subsequently, would be extremely 
easy to backup and re-import at a later time assuming your hardware 
configuration didn't change. I gather that there are disadvantages as well as 
advantages with the dynamic hard drive; but it would seem to me that the 
advantages outweigh the disadvantages if the virtual drive is correctly 
configured.

We have a Windows 7 installation for those rare occasions where it's needed. 
But it's a virtual drive and it's a 64-bit configuration of Windows rather than 
a standard 32-bit. We did try the 32-bit version under Fusion and also under 
Parallels Desktop but we found that even with a screen-reader, the 64-bit 
version running under Lion which, as we all know, is a native 64-bit OS in 
itself, performed better than the 32-bit even in native mode.

Our machine has 8GB of RAM installed and what we ended up doing was just 
configuring the Windows machine to use 4GB and leaving 4GB for OSX. It did work 
with 2GB assigned for either OS but we ultimately decided that for the sake of 
simplicity we'd do it that way.

I'm not going to go down the road of Windows backup utilities; but there is one 
which we were recommended by Dane actually and it seems to be quite good. It 
runs under Windows; so I won't talk about it here. I'll gladly do so on 
Techno-chat if those who are members are interested. If you want to join, the 
email address to do so is:

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-03 Thread Esther
Hi All,

I don't use Windows through BootCamp or VMWare Fusion, but I thought I would 
quote the results of a Google search from the Carbon Copy Cloner FAQ:
http://help.bombich.com/kb/troubleshooting/can-ccc-back-up-my-bootcamp-windows-partition
begin quote
Home → Knowledge Base → Frequently Asked Questions and Troubleshooting →
Can CCC back up my BootCamp (Windows) partition?

CCC can back up the contents of the Boot Camp partition, but it cannot make a 
bootable clone of the partition. If your goal is to back up your user data on 
the Boot Camp partition, CCC will meet your needs. If you're looking to migrate 
your Boot Camp partition to a new hard drive, you might consider an alternative 
solution such as WinClone, or one of the commercial virtualization solutions 
that offer a migration strategy from Boot Camp.
end quote
To reiterate the points that both Zack and Lynne have made, CCC cannot make a 
bootable clone that includes a separate BootCamp partition, but it can create a 
bootable clone that includes a VMWare Fusion virtualized image made using the 
BootCamp partition -- however, you would not be running BootCamp if you used 
this bootable clone, but instead accessing Windows through VMWare Fusion.

I'll add that neither Carbon Copy Cloner nor SuperDuper! will back up the 
recovery partition that gets installed on your hard drive with Lion. This is 
the small partition that lets you hold down Command-R at start up or the Option 
key at boot time to select and start up from that partition. You can create 
external recovery disks with Lion Recovery Disk Assistant, as outlined in the 
Take Control of Upgrading to Lion guide or in the recent TidBITS article, 
Lion Recovery Disk Assistant Creates External Recovery Drives:

I'll list a few of the answers that have appeared in the Apple Discussion 
forums for backup tools that will handle cloning the BootCamp partition.  Most 
users preferred to handle the Mac partition backups with either SuperDuper! or 
CCC.  Although some of the following can handle both, they may be meant 
primarily for drive imaging, so there are other tradeoffs (e.g., take much 
longer, fewer backup/restore options with more specific functionality, etc.)

• CopyCatX 5.0 from SubRosaSoft.com:
http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_infoproducts_id=7
 

• Clone X 4 from TRI-EDRE:
http://www.tri-edre.com/english/clonex.html
(The French web page is: http://www.tri-edre.com/fr/clonex.html )

* Paragon HD Manager 2011 or Paragon Backup  Recovery 10 Home:
http://www.paragon-software.com/home/hdm-personal/ 
http://www.paragon-software.com/home/brh/features.html
(I'm not sure whether you run this from BootCamp; the description of how 
someone used the Backup Partition option of HD Manager 2011 to boot from DVD 
sounded as though it might not be accessible.)

The inability to use Winclone under Lion and its lack of current 
development/support was mentioned, and it wasn't clear whether Clonezilla, a 
solution that worked under Snow Leopard and which is free and open source 
software, would also work under Lion.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

 Hi Lynn,
 You're quite correct.  CCC or SuperDuper would not back up any bootcamp 
 partition, you'd need another  backup utility to do that.  I'm not sure what 
 programs are available for such tasks, as I find CCC adequate for my needs.  
 This is probably a good argument in favor of single-file VM configurations, 
 but that's neither here nor there.  THe point to all this is yes, Lynn, 
 you're right.  :)

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-02 Thread Eric Caron
Gordon,

I didn't know about Win clone I Googled it, downloaded it, ran it, and 
no go it only works on Leopard and Snowy,  On one site it alsop said it was 
discontinued.  I don't know if that means on that site or in general.  The 
version I found was 2.2. 

Is there another option out there? 

Eric Caron.  I have all ready had Windows 7 and Jaws give mme headaches and 
would like to revert to a time when things were working right.  This would save 
me time and give me peace of mind.  I wish CCC could do this but thought I read 
somewhere that it doesn't do the bootcamp partition as it does the Mac 
partition.

suggestions greatly appreciated!

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-02 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Gordon and others,

Perhaps I need to use VM Fusion?  I don't use windows much so bootcamp 
was good enough for me.  also I only have 4 GB ram so I did not want to share 
resources.  If I were to instal VM Fusion would windows then back up with CCC 
as part of my Macintosh HD?  Also, Can I just not run the VM when I want my mac 
to use all resources including the 4 GB ram?  
I love the security of having a bootable backup that has everything 
there thee way it was when things were working well.

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-02 Thread Zachary Kline
Hi Eric,
Your assumption about being able to back up your FUsion VM with CCC is correct. 
When you don't want your Mac's resources being used by Windows, simply stop the 
VM.  I use a Fusion VM of Windows 7 with 2 GB of ram and it works quite nicely. 
 There's no noticeable slowdown on the Mac side of things.
Yours,
Zack.

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-02 Thread Eric Caron
I was hoping that once VM Fusion was running with Windows CCC would consider it 
part of the Macintosh HD and just back up the whole thing.  I could then 
ultimately ditch bootcamp.  It sounds like that is not the case.

So other solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Backing up Bootcamp partition

2011-09-02 Thread Zachary Kline
Hi Eric,
THe question is whether or not you're running a VM with a virtualized hard 
disk.  If you do that, then yes, the VM is just one more file for CCC to back 
up on your Macintosh HD.  If not, and you use the Bootcamp partition with 
Fusion, I'm not sure what happens, as I've never needed that setup myself.  
Hope this explanation clears things up a bit.
Best,
Zack.

 I was hoping that once VM Fusion was running with Windows CCC would consider 
 it part of the Macintosh HD and just back up the whole thing.  I could then 
 ultimately ditch bootcamp.  It sounds like that is not the case.
 
 So other solutions would be greatly appreciated!

 Fusion isn't a backup utility, so you'd be no better off.

 Hi Gordon and others,
 
  Perhaps I need to use VM Fusion?  I don't use windows much so bootcamp 
 was good enough for me.  also I only have 4 GB ram so I did not want to 
 share resources.  If I were to instal VM Fusion would windows then back up 
 with CCC as part of my Macintosh HD?  Also, Can I just not run the VM when I 
 want my mac to use all resources including the 4 GB ram?  
  I love the security of having a bootable backup that has everything 
 there thee way it was when things were working well.

 Hi Eric
 
 We neither of us knew about that discontinuation of the software, sorry 
 about that.  Actually this is something that you should be able to get over 
 by doing a sector-level backup of the hard drive.  I'm sure there are Mac 
 utilities out there which do that.  I will investigate.

 Is there another option out there? 
 
 Eric Caron.  I have all ready had Windows 7 and Jaws give mme headaches and

Hello Folks:

I have the same [problem with Gordon's messages as I have with those of the 
creator of Amadeus Pro; mainly, that I can't read them.  Now someone 
explained that it had something to do with digitally signed email and that 
Outlook doesn't process these messages very well.


The point is, that email's that can't be read won't be very helpful. Perhaps 
someone knows away around this problem?

bootcamp with Lion?

2011-07-25 Thread Kevin Barry
  I am considering buying a 
new Mini which will, of course, have Lion on it.

  I am told one can use bootcamp on it as usual.
Not having an optical drive  isn't a problem as I have another Mac 
and can use target mode, and I have an external drive besides.
  The question I have is, after one installs Windows typically you 
insert your Snow Leopard DVD in order that the Mac can load drivers 
it needs for windows.

  Well, as there is no more Mac OS disk to insert I wonder how this is done?
  I went  to an Apple store, for the first time ever, here on Long 
Island andwas profoundly  unimpressed.
  the so-called genius didn't know that a computer that he had on 
display did not in fact have server on it.
  Worse, after seeing me with my cane and hearing how I had VO 
running and also hearing me mention it,  proceeded to ask a series of 
dumb questions, example, did I prefer using the mouse or the trackpad.

  My answer, I prefer using the keyboard.
   He didn't know squat about Server either.
  So, I think I may have actually lost knowledge  as a result of 
that experience.

  I certainly lost respect.
  At the end, he asked me if he could answer any questions for me.
I answered (no but I don't think he got the joke.

If all is going well, you've obviously overlooked something.

Re: bootcamp with Lion?

2011-07-25 Thread Mike Arrigo
The boot camp downloads the drivers now, and I think saves them to a place you 
specify, so a disk is no longer needed.

  I am told one can use bootcamp on it as usual.
 Not having an optical drive  isn't a problem as I have another Mac and can 
 use target mode, and I have an external drive besides.
  The question I have is, after one installs Windows typically you insert your 
 Snow Leopard DVD in order that the Mac can load drivers it needs for windows.
  Well, as there is no more Mac OS disk to insert I wonder how this is done?
  I went  to an Apple store, for the first time ever, here on Long Island and  
   was profoundly  unimpressed.
  the so-called genius didn't know that a computer that he had on display did 
 not in fact have server on it.
  Worse, after seeing me with my cane and hearing how I had VO running and 
 also hearing me mention it,  proceeded to ask a series of dumb questions, 
 example, did I prefer using the mouse or the trackpad.
  My answer, I prefer using the keyboard.
   He didn't know squat about Server either.
  So, I think I may have actually lost knowledge  as a result of that 
 experience.
  I certainly lost respect.
  At the end, he asked me if he could answer any questions for me.
 I answered (no but I don't think he got the joke.
