Why does Apple Mac use cat names as OS?

Like many technology companies, Apple employs 'code names' for various projects (for example, earlier versions of Mac OS and related projects were named after American composers: Gershwin, Copland, etc.). The Mac OS X project started with version 10.0, code named "Cheetah." 10.1 was known internally as "Puma." By the time 10.2 'Jaguar" was nearing release, the big cat names had practically become common knowledge among the Mac community, and Apple's marketing started including the names officially as part of the released product.

What is the application that makes a mac run as a windows?

Sorry, but a Mac OS is not intended to run on non-Mac Hardware. So a Mac running on Windows based PC will not work as you would hope. It will also break EULA with Apple and that's just not cool...

But!

The other way around will work. If you have a Mac, you can use either Bootcamp, Virtualbox, or VMware and it's legally possible and a sound process that will be guaranteed to work if you know what you are doing.

Why cant you transfer your files from mac powerbook to external hard drive?

First, make sure that your external hard drive is USB capable. If it uses firewire, then that might be the issue. If it is USB capable, then plug it into the powerbook. Wait at the most 1 minute for it to recognize the external hard drive. If it does not appear on the screen, you may want to try and plug it in on a second computer. If it doesn't show up on a second computer, the hard drive may have a problem/bug. If it does show up, then drag the selected files onto the hard drive. If it says you can't, then there probably isn't enough room on the hard drive to store the files. That is about all that can be explained to you from the information given.
