Windows On Mac :: Finding 7 Reviews
Jan 25, 2009Hope this thread will work out. I'd like the community to put all their Windows 7 Reviews in this thread. Please keep it "nice" - this is for reviewing Windows 7 and how well it runs on Macs, PC's, under Virtualization, etc.
Please state what machine your running on, the version, and your likes/dislikes. Also, will it be worth upgrading from XP or Vista? Would you need to get a new computer (Mac or PC), Virtualization or Bootcamp?
I'd like to know.. I'm testing it on a few different machines. Will post my findings on at least my first machine a bit later.

MS Office 2008, Firefox, Adobe CS masters, VirtualBox and Real Player (school uses realplayer for all video lectures...I smell a pay off...)
can anyone using SL Gold master or the latest pre release confirm if this software works?
OS X :: Finding Spotlight On Snow Leopard
Aug 24, 2009One of the biggest gripes i have with Leopard is Spotlight. I have a 4gb usb drive i put mp3s on to listen to in my car and every time i plug it in Spotlight starts indexing it which means i get stuck with slower read/write speeds until it is done. Is there any way in 10.6 to turn off Spotlight for external drives?
View 4 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Finding Compatibility Of 6gb Of Ram In Snow Leopard?
Aug 29, 2009I have a Late 08 Unibody MBP, and I ordered 6gb (one 2gb and one 4gb) of Ram from OWC to install with Snow Leopard (super fast kitty ). So first I installed Snow Leopard with my orignal 2gb of Ram, and it was fine. Then, I installed the 6gb of Ram and it booted up fine and I checked "About this Mac" and it said "6gb of ddr3 ram" or something like that. So I thought all was well. After that, I was transferring some large files from an external HD over to my Mac (clean install), so I went to have some lunch
View 10 Replies View RelatedMac Pro :: Finding RAM Usage With Snow Leopard
Aug 30, 2009Ever since installing snow leopard my ram has been acting different. By that I mean, when I'm encoding a blu ray in Handbrake and open Activity Monitor it shows 4GB of RAM used (this is after encoding for over two hours). With leopard it would be around 15gb RAM used after a few hours?

May 26, 2009Ok, So I have heard what others are saying , but I just want to be sure, I have a Late 2009 White Macbook (Feb. 4, 2009). It is running Leopard 2GB RAM, 64 BIT, 120 HD, BLUETOOTH, ECT. I was curious if my Macbook will be able to run Snow Leopard because some people say it needs 4GB RAM and I can replace my ram, but I really just want to run it smoothly on my macbook.

Aug 5, 2009After checking out the system requirements for the upcoming Snow Leopard OS I'm wondering if my '06 MacBook 1.1 w/ a Core Duo processor meets the minimum requirements - specifically, the difference between a 32-bit processor vs. 64-bit processor.

OS X :: Snow Leopard 10A432 - Finding Application Compatibility
Aug 18, 2009Let's have a list of applications that currently don't work under Snow Leopard 10A432.
CandyBar 3.1.2 - Unstable, becomes unresponsive after some time. Cannot scroll through installed icons.
Glims - Installs, but doesn't show up in Safari preferences.
Inquisitor - Installs, but doesn't show up in Safari preferences.
DNS-323 NAS Samba access is also broken in Snow Leopard. I can confirm this.
Applications :: Finding Best Word Processor For Snow Leopard
Oct 22, 2009I need a word processor for Snow Leopard that will read and write to the .doc and .rtf formats. I had NeoOffice but it is basically far from ready for prime time. It will not format picture inserts properly and dropped two out of three pages of my document when I saved it. Yes, I did have the Snow Leopard upgrade for it.
View 24 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Finding Snow Leopard Mail And Exchange
Sep 15, 2009I was thrilled to see Exchange support in Mail/Snow Leopard, but I am less than thrilled with the experience! I should note that my first tests were to set this up as an Exchange 2007 account; I have not yet attempted to use the Exchange IMAP type account, but shall try that later.
Setting it up was quite easy, and I was able to start retrieving emails immediately. Sending is another matter.
1. The sent emails do not show up in my Sent folder for that account, nor on any smart folders that I defined.
2. Multiple instances of the message are stored in the Drafts folder for some reason. There is always more than one message, and often more than two (once there were six copies of the message in the drafts!).

Hardware :: Finding Network Printer Driver For Snow Leopard In Mac?

I have a HP 1020, Connon IP4600 and a Lexmark X324n XL all running of a Windows network.
OS X :: Finding Snow Leopard Bare Drive Installation Guide?
Aug 29, 2009Just wanted to let everyone know this morning I installed a brand new drive in my mac mini (320GB 7200RPM for the record)
Then booted off the snow leopard disk and did a fresh install.
The key is to go into the disk utility menu when the first snow leopard screen is displayed (I think the button is "continue" on the first screen). Once in disk utility you can format your bare drive and then upon closing disk utility the SL installer will come back and prompt you to install on the drive you just formatted.
This was using the $29 snow leopard upgrade disk for the record (and yes I already owned leopard for this machine).
SL is so far working sweet except for the lack of istat menus! They really need to get a move on and get that SL compatible version released.
Applications :: Finding TarBall Patch To Run Alpine On Snow Leopard
May 26, 2010I followed the basic installation procedure from [URL] to install on 10.5, but it won't install on 10.6. [URL]
When I contacted Paul at MadBoa, he said he'd send me a patch but I guess he got too busy, but he said it *will* compile under 10.6.3 also.
The source app is here: [URL] I'm using the tar.gz file as per madboa instructions.
By the way, I'm on a MBP, C2D, 2.8, 8GB 17" if that matters... and have 10.6.3, probably moving to 10.6.4 when it releases.
MacBook Pro :: Using Intel SSD - Finding Advice On Snow Leopard Installation From UTD Disk?
Jan 22, 2010Here's the deal: I have the most recent 17" UMBP, purchased last August, 2009 and got the Snow Leopard Up To Date Disk, did an install on my stock Hard Drive and have been VERY happy with everything for the past few months.
But... All these threads championing the latest Intel SSD G2 have finally gotten to me and, I just purchased the 80GB model from Newegg. It should be here tomorrow.
Now, I ask that you confirm, a specific question about installation from my UTD disk and then advise.
note that I've searched a ton about this subject. It's been answered in so many conflicting ways, I'm running it by you guys once again.
So then, it seems that I can NOT install Snow Leopard from my UTD disk onto the new, fresh Intel SSD installed into my 17" UMBP. This is the case, yes?
A workaround, I figure, would be to install Leopard 10.5 onto the new SSD and then to a clean and erase and then instal of 10.6 on top. I assume the UTD will read 10.5 and let the upgrade proceed.
So, finally, a question: Should I be worried about installing a total of two OSs given that I (cheaply!) opted for the smaller 80GB SSD and that 10.6 doesn't support TRIM?
MacBook Pro :: Finding Total Users Of Snow Leopard 64bit Kernel
Apr 11, 2010I know by default that Snow Leopard starts up in 32-bit kernel but anyone here boot into the 64-bit kernel? I think to do this you'd have to hold down 6 and 4 keys while booting.
By now almost all 3rd party apps are running 64-bit and all this time I've totally forgot about the 64-bit kernel!
I've just booted up to 64-bit kernel and all apps load instantaneously!
