Boot camp 5.1.3 will not give me the option to download Windows 8.1. I just bought the disk today to do this but the only option I have is to download windows 7. How do I fix this?

I have a usb with 16 gb already formatted it and I just downloaded Yosemite. I just bought a brand new windows 8.1 disk, so how do I download it to my Mac so I can use some stupid Windows apps ha?

From MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010) - Technical Specifications, you have a built-in Optical drive. Is it functional?
Storage
250GB or 320GB 5400-rpm Serial ATA hard drive; optional 320GB or 500GB 5400-rpm hard drive, or 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB solid-state drive6
8x slot-loading SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
Maximum write: 8x DVD-R, DVD+R; 4x DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD-R; 10x CD-RW
Maximum read: 8x DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-ROM; 6x DVD-ROM (double layer DVD-9), DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD
You will need to burn a DVD using Disk Utility (Yosemite): Burn a disk image to a CD or DVD and use it for Windows installation. You will also need a USB2 flash disk for the BC drivers for it to work. Please ensure that the DVD is burnt at the recommend rate for the physical media and verify, otherwise you will end up with an unusable DVD.

  • My IPod touch is new and yet it will not let me get on my downloaded items. How do I fix that?

    My Ipod is brand new but whenever i go to get on my downloads it will not let me on the screen just goes back to my home page. How do i fix this??

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • TS3274 My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

    My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

    Are you in a company/enterprise where the installer was customized?  If yes, then your administrator may have disabled the Sign panel feature on the right hand side, however, signing a document should still be available in the Digital Signatures Pane on the left side via  a pop-up menu.

    If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. 
    The iPod should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  Select it there.  To the right, its Summary screen is shown.  Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs ot the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  This is the switch to enable automatic syncing.  If your iTunes music library fits on the iPod, you can choose to sync Entire music library.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Select playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Then select what you want on the iPod from the lists below. 
    Click Apply to intiate automatic syncing between that iTunes library and your iPod (based on how the iPod's Music screen is set up in iTunes).

  • Why does my iPhoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of times to the point where I have to force quit it and how do I fix it?

    Why does my iphoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of the times when I try to exit it to the point where I have to "force quit" it and how do I fix the problem that causes it?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    does this only happen when you try to quit iPhoto?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Updated to IOS6 and now my apps will not update on the Ipad2.  I have to delete them and then re-install.  But I have several hundred apps and this is cumbersome.  Seems the new software is too buggy.  I am telling people not to update software yet.

    Basic troubleshooting from the Users Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Boot Camp Update 2.1 will not run

    I'm trying to install Windows XP on my Intel Macbook. It's a legal copy purchased from Microsoft so no trouble there.
    The Bootcamp Assistant worked fine and the Windows install worked fine. I'm now at the point of trying to install the Boot Camp drivers but I don't have my Leopard disc available. (I bought a an OS X Family Pack and my son currently has the discs 20 miles away.)
    Accordingly, I downloaded the Boot Camp 2.1 update from Apple but it simply will not run under Windows in the Boot Camp partition. It briefly looks (1-2 seconds) as though it's starting, but then never does.
    I tested the .exe file on a pure Windows machine and it runs fine so there's no file corruption problems.
    I've searched online but can't seem to find any solution to this particular problem.

    But that's not what the Apple download page says. Specifically it says the following.
    "Note: This download contains complete copies of Boot Camp Windows XP Drivers (version 2.1). If you have Boot Camp drivers already installed, it will update them. If you do not have any Boot Camp drivers installed, it will install version 2.1 drivers onto your already installed Windows OS."
    Hi,
    I admit I haven't ever taken a closer look at that and as said to my knowledge, the 2.1 update only works with the 2.0 drivers already installed.
    Just did a quick googling and couldn't find any success story of using the 2.1 Update as a standalone driver install without having the 2.0 driver installed before.
    Do you have the needed Admin rights when running the update.exe ?

  • Cannot uninstall I tunes. In control panel add and remove programs it will not give me the option to remove any of the I tunes. In program files it tells me access denied to remove any of the related items. I have tried using the removal methods from i tu

    My i tunes will not work at all. I have tried all the steps given to remove my I tunes player but in my control panel, add and remove programs it does not give me an option to remove any of the apple/ I tunes. I tried to go to program files and remove all the files but access is denied. This all started about 1 1/2 years ago and with every i tunes update i got more and more errors or problems until it stopped working. At one time i could remove and reinstall i tunes to try to fix it but now i cannot do anything. I believe one of the last  was i could not open i tune because it was being used or was on another network, not 100% sure its been so long and frustrating I quit trying 6 months ago. Hopefully someones got some help !!!
    Thanks I appreciate your time; Philip

  • I am trying to scan a document, but my printer utility will not give me the option to scan.

    I am trying to can a document on my computer.  However, when I bring up the printer utility it does not give me the option to scan.  I have a laptop that does allow this option, but I don't want to go through the hassle of downloading to one device and emailing to another.  HELP!!!

    My experience, albeit slightly different, is that the scan functionality available from an Epson XP-600 is less on my iMac 21.5" than on an old Dell machine that ran on Microsoft. I suspect it's because the majority of home computers & laptops run on Microsoft platforms and this gets reflected in the amount of programming effort put in by printer/scanner manufacturers.
