i am wondering if there is any program like screenflow for windows. i need to record myself doing something in windows on my macbook pro. if that makes any sense. I currently use screenflow for making videos of me on leopard, and i currently have a project coming up and need to make a video about a windows program.
View 5 RepliesI have a macbook pro. There is a built in camera. I can use to camera with Imovie, but it does not detect the camera with screenflow. I do not see the isight software on my machine. Do I simply need to buy the software? Seems like it should of been on the computer already (purchased used)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI ran a file to export which converts to a quicktime .mov file.I expected these times but what's nice is that the fans on the MB kick in at full blast in 1 minute whereas the MBA full fans at 4 minutes full. Far less fan noise on the MBA! Looking at the temps, the MBA ran a full 11 degrees cooler the entire time. Fan noise is very important as I can now record voice from a usb mic without the fan noise being recorded as was the case with the Macbook.
Only downside is that the MBA takes longer (didn't time it) to cool down. Does anyone else have a longer than usual cool down time for the fans to go from full 6500 rpm to the norm 2500rpm?
I recently installed Windows vista using going through parallels because my bootcamp failed a while ago. This partition also acts as my bootcamp. Well The internet on parallels works fine because it is using osx network, but when i boot into bootcamp the network drivers seem to be missing. I cant figure it out, but it says the ethernet and network drivers are not there. I cant find the drivers on the internet anywhere and when i use the vista disk i have it still does not want to install them.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe'll after a mamouth effort today which had me thinking that I'd bricked my Mac, I've finally got Windows 7 installing throught using refit, bootcamp didn't want to work with my external dvd drive.
Where do I get the native bootcamp drivers to ensure my mac works properly in Windows mode? Are they on the Snow Leopard disk ? I recall in the past in the past that bootcamp used to make the drivers for you and burn them onto a CD but wasn't able to get past the partition stage, so don't know what the process is?
The graphics driver is the most important, I'm using one of the intel core duo original imacs, so I think its ATI.
Also any ideas where I can obtain a osx tool for managing partitions, I was showing about 5 partitions on the windows install, so would like to clean things up a little?
I have a 17" MB PRO bought august 2010 8gb ram 7200rpm HD
The game I want to run actually runs better on 4gb ram (acording to the geeks who know everything about it) but as we all know the graphics card is not really up to par for gaming.
(I KNOW THAT MAC BOOKS ARE NOT MEANT FOR GAMING, but I don't listen well ) i also know that the graphics card is built in and uses shared memory. I know on a PC Lap Top (with built in chips) in bios settings you can allocate more or less normal ram, as a overflow for when your graphics card is over loaded.
I am wondering if there is such a feature for bootcamp windows on a mac book? I would like to bring it up to 4Gb shared. If its not possible please dont flame me, i am not really knowledgeable with all the technical stuff and you only learn from asking.
Hope 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.
Just installed Windows 7 64bit on my bootcamp partition and at first glance everything looks great.
I haven't used any of the boot camp drivers yet, though I did install ATI's latest Win7 drivers for the 4870.
How well will graphic intensive games work with the 13 inch MBP graphics card with 4gb of ram? I will be using Windows 7 though bootcamp

View 3 Replies View RelatedBut on the G5 next to it, I need to do some Windows testing. I managed pretty well with getting Parallels Window environments into a sandbox, just internet connectivity, access to the optical drives and one shared drive is perfect, and I want to achieve the same level of a sandbox in Virtual PC v7.
Background is, I've used VPC v3 on G3, v5 on my G4. Both of these were a dream (OK slow on the G3) but VPC 7 is required to run on my dual G5. From the manual I see it installs all kinds of intergration tools into the heart of the Mac OS (ouch), requires a restart (I restart about once every 3 months due to the amount of stuff I keep running). I can live with this, if I can be sure that I can turn off all the integration tools I don't want. From the manual I can see all the Application and Client OS Environment settings, some look as though they turn off unwanted features, but I would like to know from someone who used it, just how configurable it is into getting it into the proverbial sandbox.
Can you guys recommend some imaging software that works with the mbp i.e I could boot off a cd to restore an image to a hard drive.
I'm only using win7 for games and I want to take an image of my base install w/ windows update before installing anything
Does anyone know how Boot camp and pre-activated copies of WIndows Xp are? DO the two mix well?
At my school we can buy these copies called Win XP sp2 Student edition since were students in a special program. This copy is supposed to be used to teach us the installation process of windows Xp on PCS but since i was able to buy one now i was wondering if it will work on my iMac.
I was advised by the Apple store that I need not worry about spy/virus intrusion issues on my Mac mini. However, do I need to worry about spy and virus intrusion when activating the Parallel program and using the Windows XP side of my Mac mini .... i.e., similar to the threats that I had to protect against on my IBM PC computer???
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a White MacBook with a 120GB Drive, currently partitioned into 2, a 20.8GB ish Windows Vista Ultimate Partition, and a 90.9GB ish Mac OS X Leopard Partition. The problem is I've run out of space, and need a extra 5gb partition, that both OSes can read. I can shrink the Mac OS X partition with Disk Utility, and I can add a new FAT32 partition under Windows, problem is Mac OS X wont see it, or mount it, it just sees empty space.
1. Why is this?
2. How do I persuade it to read and mount the partition?
Ive seen quite a few amazing ones so far.Anyone have a link to like a pack,or can someone upload a few?They all from what ive seen are amazing.

The graphics driver on this computer is out of date. You should update the graphics driver on this computer before running Halo 2 for Windows Vista. You may experience problems running Halo 2 for Windows Vista if you choose to continue without updating.
I am trying to get windows on my air without much success. I installed parallels. I set up a virtual machine of windows vista from my HP laptop. I entered the windows product key. But I can not figure out how to get the iso image. How do I find the ISO image on my hp if I can't find any windows cd?
Alternatively, is there a faster way to get windows on an air then through parallels? Is the windows for mac program put out by microsoft availalbe for legal download anywhere?
I find the new trackpad drivers to be pretty horrible. It's so sensitive that it picks up all the minor movements.
It gets really frustrating because whenever I use my thumb to press down the trackpad, the trackpad picks up all those mini movements causing the cursor to shift a little everytime I press down the trackpad. This makes double clicking pretty hard.
I recently purchased an upgrade download for windows 7 online. i ended up buying windows 7 professional but now realize it's not eligible for an upgrade from windows vista home basic, only custom install. My question is, if i were to obtain a copy of the windows 7 home upgrade instead of pro, can i use the serial number i purchased for windows 7 professional on a win7 home install, or are they specific to version?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just installed W7 Home Premium 64 bit on my MBP through bootcamp and when I had to enter the product key, it wouldn't accept it. No biggie, so I left it blank and finished the install.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a research computer where I would like to dual boot windows 7 64 bit and OS X. I want a separate partition to keep all the data that both OS X and Windows can read. The trick is that I want to use a vmware fusion file in both that is bigger than 4gb so fat 32 won't work.

What other updates do I need to install? Are there things that I need to do/uninstall?
The battery seems to be draining a lot quicker than when I'm on OSX, is there anyway to fix this?
There's also some weird noise coming from my MacBook Pro when I'm on Windows. I can't really explain it but it's like some kind of a scratchy noise. I ejected all my disks, so I don't think it's coming from the super drive.
The scrolling of the trackpad seems go really fast and just a little stroke makes the page scroll all the way to the bottom. Is there anyway I can fix this?
I've been looking around for an app that makes all windows in Mac Os X snap to the edge of others (and to the edge of the screen).
View 5 Replies View Relatedhave only just started the journey of installing a VM on my iMac and have hit what looks like a common problem but I cant see a common answer!
I've got an iMac running OS X (10.6.4 to be precise) with a 3GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB RAM and 500G HDD.
I installed Parallels 5 preferring it over bootcamp because you can switch over without having to reboot.
I've then download Windows 7 64bit version from the Microsoft store and run through the installation / creation of a new vm in parallels.
All seemed to be fine for the first 45 seconds but then I've hit a pop up called "Load Driver" saying "No device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click OK" - on clicking OK out of that pop up - I have a choice to BROWSE, RESCAN to find the right "driver".
My question is - what is the right driver? what device is the driver needed for? I've searched around and most suggestions point towards going into device manager - well - I'm still on STAGE 1 of the install of Windows 7 where it says its "Collecting information".
When I downloaded Windows 7 from the Microsoft store it provided 2 files:
Windows7_Professional_ISO_64bit.iso and bootsect.exe
but no other files. I stored it in Documents/Windows7 files.
Apologies if you've had this question a thousand time but could someone kindly suggest how I find out what device drivers I need?
i was wondering if anybody here was developing for Windows Mobile 7 on their Mac? It may seem strange but I'm a Windows Mobile 7 developer and I really, really like it.
I know it goes against the grain here but I am a huge fan of Visual Studio. I really enjoy CSharp, C++, and VB.net. Though I'm partial to CSharp.
Anyway I joined the beta SDK program (its free) and I really enjoy programming for Windows Mobile 7. I noticed many other developers are using Mac as well. In fact, one of the presentations you can view shows Microsoft employees using a MBP.
I'm flipping between VMWare and Bootcamp because the XNA code requires a DX10 card which VMWare doesn't use. Though VMWare is great for Silverlight stuff.
I just installed Windows 7 and have got as far as installing the graphics card drivers from ati's website (since the ones that windows update installs are almost always out of date). Now the card is being recognised as a Radeon HD 5750 but I know from other discussions best guess is It's actually a Mobility card inside the iMac.
