Does IDA 7 support 32bit processor? - reverse-engineering

I tried the latest version of IDA (the free version), and it didn't work.
It seems that only a 64-bit version had been installed.
My computer is 32-bit.
Can IDA only run on 64-bit environment now?
I've seen no announcement regarding such change.

Can IDA only run on 64-bit environment now?
Actually even paid license version of IDA runs on x64 only. The HexRays company provides limited support for 32 bit with a single goal - support for old 32bit plug-ins for old versions of the IDA.
In this case you have to use IDA Freeware 5.0 or something else, depending on your OS. For macOS and Linux good disassembler is Hopper Disassembler.
For downloading IDA Free 5.0 check this answer (same question with a problem of running on 32 bit OS): https://reverseengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/19179/older-versions-of-ida-free

IDA free version support only x64 binary files.
If you want to disassemble x86 binary files you should use non-free versions.

MakeAppx Manifest xml settings for 32bit and 64bit app (ProcessorArchitecture)

In my manifest xml file I have this setting, does it mean that only 64bit Windows10 installations do accept my package? My app is native 32bit, which setting is recommended to this field to make it work with both 32 and 64 bit os?
ProcessorArchitecture="x64"
I think if you set ProcessorArchitecture="x64" in your manifest xml file, the package just only was installed on the x64 Windows 10. But you can set
ProcessorArchitecture="x86" in the manifest, because this x86 package can all work fine on x86 and x64 Windows 10.
This answer based on VS C++, but the context is basically the same for manifests. Surprised to see that W10 X86 only installations actually exist, but they do, (or did), because, as the free W10 upgrade did not provide an option to change architectures, only a clean install would.
However, from an old Tom's Hardware post:
All processors since the Opteron in 2003 and the intel Pentium 4 Prescott ( the latter editions ) has 64bit instruction set and will all run 64bit windows.
Thus as long a MSFT continues to support 32 bit architecture, X86 is the safer option, although X64 would probably still work.
processorArchitecture='*'
covers all bases as well.
Microsoft's documentation says to use processorArchitecture="ia64" for Windows 64-bit builds; however, they do not follow their own advice. Microsoft uses "amd64" for 64-bit builds of WordPad.exe and iexplore.exe (Internet Explorer 64-bit) according to the embedded app manifest of these EXEs on my Windows 10 computer.

How to install MySql 32 bit on Mac OS 64 bit?

The wxPython package must run in 32 bit mode, but the official MySql download page does not have any link to download the 32bit installer. Do you know where to download the 32bit installer of MySql?
Thanks
UPDATE: I am trying to download MySql 32 bit for Mac.
You are incorrect. The Cocoa build of wxPython supports both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. From the wxPython downloads page:
The file with "cocoa" in the name use the Cocoa API for implementing the GUI, requires at least OSX 10.5, and supports either 32-bit or 64-bit architectures.
The Carbon builds are built for i386 and PPC.
Also note that if you go into the Development Releases tab on the MySQL downloads page, it has 32-bit tars and dmgs

installing 340.29 driver along with cuda 6.0

I have recently installed cuda 6.0 with a view of performance increment in windows 7 . the toolkit installer has display driver installer along with it and it installed display driver version named as 9.18.13.4062 . is this version mean 340.62???
Also it is mentioned that driver version 340.29 with cuda increases performance according to this link
does 340.xx series have the same performance ?? I couldnot get the version 340.29 driver. where can i download it from???
340.62 is the Windows GPU driver that ships with the CUDA 6.5 (windows) installer.
340.29 is the Linux GPU driver that ships with the CUDA 6.5 (linux) installer.
The link you have provided is referring to linux. 340.62 and 340.29 should be comparable, as much as "comparable" can be stated about a windows platform vs. a linux platform
Regarding the performance in the article linked, CUDA 6.5 (i.e. not just the driver) has significant performance increases in various libraries and in the compiler as well.
To get an idea of these performance increases, there is a webinar you can attend tomorrow (wednesday, September 17th) by following the link here.

Does CouchBase (2.0.1) supports windows 32 bits?

The download page does not have a Windows build for the most recent version - 2.0.1. There is a windows 64 bits installation for the version 2.0.0.
I was wondering about the reasons of not supporting Windows 32 bits since 2.0.0 and Windows at all since 2.0.1.
Is it that they do not provide the binaries, but one could still build it for Windows 32 bits using the build instructions ?
Or there is a deeper reason, like using an API unavailable for Windows 32 bits (2.0.0) or unavailable for Windows at all (2.0.1) ?
I am asking because I am considering building it on Windows, both 32 and 64 bits, but would like to be sure the effort is not doomed to failure from the start.
we are well aware of the situation. The plan is to release 2.0.1 for 64 bits as soon as possible. We're having some delays for our Windows builds and want to make sure the quality is as high as possible. So expect a 2.0.1 64bit soon.
That said, I don't think that we'll have production ready versions of 2.0.x 32bit. What we are currently working on is a 32bit build that people can use to develop against, but is not recommended to use in production (similar to our Mac OS X builds).
I can't give you a specific timeline, but I think we're talking about "weeks". If you want to get direct feedback from one of the developers, please get in touch with Trond Norbye over twitter (#trondn).
Does this answer your question?

does mysql 5.4 has a linux 32 bit version?

Can MySQL 5.4 beta be compiled for 32-bit processors under Linux?
The current beta only has binaries for some 64-bit versions, but if you're keen on starting to beta test right now you should be able to compile from the sources on a 32-bit systems. (It IS a beta, of course, so unreliability IS to be expected -- don't run it in production, whether on 32-bit or 64-bit systems!)
According to this blog it's only available for 64-bit machines.

or here
First, the preview release of MySQL
5.4 only includes the InnoDB scalability fixes (addressing more
CPU's/cores). Second, it is limited to
the Solaris and Linux 64-bit platforms
at this time. The other features
mentioned in this article and
additional platform support will be
appearing very shortly, so be looking
for upcoming announcements soon.

if you can run ./configure and make without any errors, it should work properly.
