VMware Fusion 4.1.1: No Snow Leopard client allowed! November 23, 2011

Posted by very in : Announcement, Apple, Mac OS X, News, Snow Leopard, Tech , add a comment

After the initial excitement regarding the ability to install Mac OS X Snow Leopard client (or older Mac OS X client), VMware clarifies that only the following Mac OS X are supported to run in VMWare Fusion 4:

VMware knowledge base also states:

VMware Fusion 4.x includes a check to ensure that the version of Mac OS X being started is one of those listed. Any virtual machine that contains a Mac OS not listed above does not work after updating to VMware Fusion 4.1.1 or later. These unsupported virtual machines no longer boot after upgrading or downgrading from VMware Fusion 4.1.0.

Well, for those who have downloaded VMware Fusion 4.1.0 might want to keep the installer safe, just in case.

VMware only allows virtualization of OS X Lion and Mac OS X Server. November 21, 2011

Posted by very in : Announcement, Applications, Lion, Mac OS X, News, Resources, Snow Leopard, Tech , add a comment

VMware clarifies that Fusion 4.1 should not allow virtualization of Mac OS X Snow Leopard client or older per Apple’s EULA.

From VMware Fusion Blog:

Running Mac OS X client in a virtual machine continues to require Lion (purchased from the Mac App Store or a USB thumb drive.)  Users should always ensure they remain in compliance with any applicable software license agreements.

Certainly this is not the news Mac users been waiting for.

So, you want to use iCloud and OS X Lion while you still need Mac OS X Snow Leopard

What you need:

I decided to install Mac OS X Snow Leopard in VMware on my MacBook Pro. Having 8GB of RAM on the MacBook Pro does help. I have been editing a few pictures using Photoshop and writing this post during the installation.
