emulating "mac os" on pc

i heard that it is possible to emulat mac os on pc but. i have no idea of woh it can be done and what version of mac os.
For emulating "mac os" on pc try this:
  • As of now, "emulating mac os on pc" is possible but the result is unusable. (because apple has not released a retail version of mac for pc, the version they sell will only run on intel hardware sold be apple ) ... ... first you have to get a developer image for Mac OS, then patch it according to your needs. Even after that you will be able to see the hdd as ~6GB....

how do u put RAM in a mac?

im trying to buy this RAM from newegg.com -http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820144087 is this the right one and my mac info- Mac OS X version 10.4.11 and i only have two memory slots and i also ned to know how to put them since its in the screen and i dont want to mess any thing up a video would be great
For how do u put RAM in a mac? try this:
  • as the person who services my computers told me almost everyone gets into trouble with their computers because they try to be their own technicians. give apple a phone call on a toll free line. have all the necessary info at hand and ask them your questions. believe me you will be a lot better off. as this fellow tells me when i phone him. dont do anything. dont try and figure out the instructions. i know what the problem is. i will be right over. good luck bob
  • should work
    if it doesn't then you can always send it back
    just unscrew it
    if theres parts that you can add into your pc then it should be able to come apart no problem
    or just take it to geek squad
  • Basically your best bet would be to follow these simple steps:

    1. Bring Mac to pawn shop
    2. Sell Mac for anything over $200
    3. Buy A real computer
    4. ????
    5. PROFIT
  • It would help greatly to know what kind of Mac you are using. Is it aluminum? Is it a laptop or a desktop? I am just going to assume that you have either an iMac or a MacBook Pro.
    I am going to list a link to help you see pictures and such to do this on your own but the basic instructions are as follows:

    iMac (intel based): Turn off and unplug your computer, Put your computer face down on a soft cloth, unscrew the bottom rectangle that is filled with holes, swing outwards the white tabs called "DIMM ejector clips", remove your old ram (you may need to tug a little bit), insert your ram, push it snugly into place and then return the ejector clips to their original position.

    Macbook Pro:
    Turn off ,close and unplug your computer,
    Remove the battery using tabs on the bottom,
    unscrew the metal flap above the battery position,
    touch the metal surface under where the battery was to discharge your body,
    push the tabs holding the ram in to the left and right outward and then tilt upwards and pull out the ram, to install your ram you need to do the reverse...

    Be sure all ram is in firmly and that the clips are holding it in place and that you return all the screws to their proper positions before starting up your computer.

    Other computer configurations and tutorials with pictures are listed below.
  • More info on your mac plz. Or you can try looking on youtube for a vid. There should be one up that resembles what you are working with.
  • Well you take a chisel with a hammer....


    But seriously if you want it done right and as safe as possible for your notebook go to the apple store.

My computer will not rewrite on my cd-rw cd!?

I tried to re-burn my cd-rw disc and my computer says that the disc cannot be modified. I'm on mac os x on a g4 powerbook. Please Help! Is their something that I am not doing right?
For My computer will not rewrite on my cd-rw cd!? try this:
  • It probably isn't drivers. Can you re-write on other discs or are you having this problem on all discs? If you can never re-write then you probably don't have an RW drive.

    Its also possible that you have rewritten the disc so many times that there's no more room... every time you re-write you lose a little bit of space.
  • The drivers may be corrupted, reinstall them. From http://fixit.in
  • Did you check to see if your CD drive it compatible with CD-RW disks? Some drives can only write, not rewrite.
  • When you burn a CD or DVD and you want to add more data latter you can not close the session.

    Your burning software should have a Tic Box that says something about Multisession. Make sure it is ticked.

    If you close the session you can no longer burn data to that disk.

I’m downloading something from the Internet and everytime the screensaver comes on, the downloads stop. How do I keep the screensaver from coming on so I don’t have to sit at the computer and move the mouse all the time?
For How do you turn off your screensaver on Mac OS X 10.2? try this:

compute mac os question?

my ibook is 500MHz 384MB of RAM. i know its not a good ibook but i just want it for internet but can i run the mac os x tiger or panther on my ibook i know i could run the mac os 9 but i dont want that one
For compute mac os question? try this:
  • Panther you can use buit it will be a little slow. Tiger is out of the question.
    Click on the Apple Web site and go to discussions and check to make sure.
    All of the Operating Systems have a list of Minimum System Requirements. This will tell you for sure,
    Most of the newer Mac OSX Operating Systems require at least 512 Meg of Ram Your a little low there.
    It may be you would be better sticking with OS 9.2 to get the best performance from your computer.
  • tiger or even leopard should work
  • I think it should be able to run Tiger.

For i installed mac os x leopard on my laptop and now it wont start? try this:

    OS-X only works on apple systems.

  • GET RID OF MAC OS! I have had loads of trouble in the past with Mac operating systems. I would reinstall it with Windows. Or, if you don't like Windows go with Linux

Is there a completely free OS X hard drive cleaner?

I want to clean up the hard drive for my mac, does anyone know of a completely free program?
i mean, just erase free space, to clear those stupid files that take up needed space
For Is there a completely free OS X hard drive cleaner? try this:
  • Yes there are. The one I use is OnyX . It erases a lot of unneeded files, logs, and cache on your hard drive. It also can check your hard drive status and repair permissions, as well as a few other things.

    "It allows you to verify the Startup Disk and the structure of its System files, to run misc tasks of system maintenance, to configure the hidden parameters of the Finder, Dock and of some of Apple's own applications, to delete caches, to remove a certain number of files and folders that may become cumbersome and more."

    You can download it for free here: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/11582/onyx

    That version is for OS 10.5, but they also have the versions for OS X down to 10.2 on that same page.
  • Here try this hope it works but I don't know if it is compatible with mac.
  • do you mean format or erase it completely, if so then just use disk utility.
  • Nope, sorry.

    There are some pretty cheap ones, however.
  • dont you know you get what you pay for
