Thanks all, I googled around a bit and also can't find a definite answer. I guess the only way then is to actually try it and see what happens. Regardless whether it works or not i'll anyway continue to use VMware i'll give you feedback as soon as I ride it out, I should be able to get around

Phil, this is not correct. You most definitely can copy virtual machines from one location to another. It’s the whole point of larger VM Ware servers. In large production environments you can actually migrate the VM image with out even having to power down the device from one data center to

Nickus, the short answer is no. The virtual machine is tied to the hardware signature of the device it was first installed on. This is done to control licenses etc. I tried running a VM on another machine once and all the licensed software failed requiring new licensing. This meant a new

If using VMware to create a virtual machine it would be stored in my documents folder which gets synced up to iCloud. Would I then be able to run the virtual machine on both my iMac and Macbook since iCloud will sync it to both? I guess I would just have to install VMware on both machines?

Hi The most accessible VM software is vm Fusion but there is a price for it. If you are only going to use the windows machine only once an a while then I'd recommend eiter Virtual box which is free but not as VO friendly as fusion, Or install the windows OS into bootcamp and switch between

Yes, you can set your speech synthesizer software to use, say, the insert key as it's modifier. Problem is, the Mac keyboard doesn't have an insert key on it. Only the full-size USB wired Apple keyboard has the insert key. That's really the best option, but if you don't want to add a keyboard,
