Hello, i have mid 2011 27 inch imac. Although it is still useful, the work programs I use do not work because the updates do not come. Since the current exchange rate is quite challenging in our country, it has become impossible to buy an external monitor. So I want to use my current imac as a...

I have a Mac Pro 5,1 and for some reason I am unable to reboot into Windows 10 when I have it selected in the System Preferences pane as the startup disk. When I do that I get a flashing cursor or I get a message on the screen saying there is no bootable media or a message like that. And when I...

Hi I'm thinking of getting this external Firewire HD to backup an iMac (via Carbon Copy Cloner under Tiger), and wondering whether it can also be used, when partitioned, to back up a Windows (XP Professional) laptop I also use, via USB? It's certainly large enough. Or would the formatting...
