How do I load windows 7 on a Mac Air using the super drive?

You use Boot Camp to partition the SSD in the Air, download the Win 7 Support files from Apple (part of the boot camp process), save them to a USB thumb drive, have the USB superdrive connect to the Air with the Win 7 install DVD in the drive. Once partitioned the system will reboot and start the Win 7 install.

    WHEN TYPING IN ADDRESS'S?

    If your computer is tied to a network, then there is a way to check. Go to System Preferences, and click Accounts. unlock Admin
    then you can click Login Options.
    under that, Network Account Server. This should show you what server your computer is tied to. If you aren't in the tech department, you could try asking them.

  • How do I transfer photoshop files on my mac air to the larger mac pro?

    How do I transfer Photoshop files from my Macbook air to the larger Mac Pro?

    There are a number of ways, but the simplest is by USB thumb drive of sufficient capacity. The more elegant if both machines are on the same network is by switching file sharing on on the Mac Pro, and then logging into it from the Air. The Mac Pro drive will appear on the Air's desktop and allow you to simply drag the files over.
    For sharing, you will need an account on the Mac Pro, or the ID and password of an account already on the machine.
    File sharing basics are outlines in the support document at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1549?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • How to load turbotax on mac air with usb super drive

    i am trying to load turbo tax and cant get it to install.  i have a mac air and a usb superdrive. 

    I have TurboTax 2012 and have done it.  First, plug the SuperDrive into your USB port.  Then insert the TurboTax CD into the drive.  You will see the TurboTax icon and a folder icon representing your application folder on your desktop.  SImply drag the TurboTax icon over on top of the folder icon (as the arrow represents), let the action complete, and you will be done installing TurboTax!
    Finally, remember to eject the TurboTax disk from the SuperDrive before unplugging the drive from your USB port.  Depending on how you have Finder set up, you may have to hunt for the drive's icon.  It may be in Finder's sidebar.

  • How Can Install & Boot Windows 7 or Vista or XP Using your External Drive?

    Hi. Windows 7 64-bit says you can't install it to a USB (or firewire) external hard drive. If you need to just test some Windows program and you just have an iMac (only one you can afford) Intel and speed/performance is not really going to be an issue, has anyone tried booting and installing Windows using their USB external drive? Thank you in advance.
    Gbu.

    Hi,
    sadly Microsoft doesn't like Windows to be installed and booted of an external device.
    Their descision and Apple follows it.
    To install Windows 7 of an external USB-memory Stick, then one with 8GB should suffice.
    To install Windows 7 on an USB-Stick then the more space the better.
    I am not really into USB-sticks having some lying around but mostly smaller sized ones.
    Kingston, Corsair, Transcend seems to be good brands.

  • Is it possible to use Boot Camp to partition an external hard drive so there is a OSX partition and a Windows partiton?  I want to use the external drive for backup only, NOT to load Windows and NOT to use as a boot drive.

    I have partitioned the internal hard drive and am running Lion and Win7 Pro on my iMac i5 2.7GHz with 16GB RAM.  Can I use Boot Camp to create a Windows partition on an OSX external hard drive to use for backing up both systems to the same HDD?  I do NOT want to install OSX Lion or Windows 7 Professional on the external drive.  I do NOT want to boot either system from the external drive.  The 3TB external drive is for backup only.

    Use NTFS for Windows and buy Paragon NTFS for OS X
    You can also try Paragon HFS for Windows
    As long as you are using for data and backups, you can leave the drive as GPT too.
    I would recommend strongly to always have a 2nd bootable Mac OS drive, only need 30GB partition. System maintenance. Though LIon Recovery Mode finally makes it less but not totally unneeded.
    And yes you can use Windows to create a partition.
    Boot Camp is too broad. Do you want or mean BC Assistant? not needed but probably possible.
    MBR has trouble with 3TB drives.

  • How do I install Windows on a new Mac Mini (w/o optical drive?)

    The new Mac Mini does not have an optical drive and I would like to install Windows with Parallels Desktop 6
    Any ideas?  Can I put the iso on a USB drive or mount a NAS?
    Thanks for ay help!
    Enzo

    You can burn an ISO of a bootable disc back to a DVD, but not to a USB device. I don't know if Parallels is able to install from an ISO, but it may install from an external drive. This is why you should read the documentation for Parallels or ask at their tech support site.

  • HT4854 How can I load Mountain Lion to multiple Macs

    How can I load Mountain Lion to multiple Macs without downloading the huge 4Gb file to each machine?

    I've never done that, but I don't see why it wouldn't. There is no verification or authentication keys in the installer.
    If you need 20+ licenses*, then you might take a look at the volume licensing: http://www.apple.com/mac/volume-licensing/
    It describes the same process I described.
    * I think 20 is the minimum. Not sure, though.

  • How do I load windows for mac

    How do I load windows for mac I have DVD software

    You can install Windows on a Mac with Boot Camp or a virtual machine. If you need maximum performance, use Boot Camp.
    If you want to use Boot Camp, first check that the Windows version you want to install is compatible with your iMac > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634 Then, open Boot Camp Assistant, in /Applications/Utilities, and follow the steps to install Windows. Check > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.8.pdf
    If you want to use the virtual machine, you have to install an application like Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox, create a virtual machine and install Windows there

  • How Do I create Windows Form file in VS and add the form to my VS project?

    C#, How Do I create Windows Form file in VS and add the form file to my VS project by using C# code?
    I like to create a Windows Form file into my VS Win Form project by using C#. I have the path and the file name.
    I need a Win Form with FileName.cs, FileName.Designer.cs, FileName.resx, and FileName (as you see it VS by adding a Win Form manually by using VS)
    Rune Brattas

    You cannot create a Form from code at run time. 
    For one thing, the user running your application will, almost certainly, not have  a copy of Visual Studio to hand with which to build anything.  (Not that you actually need 'Studio at all; Notepad and csc.exe are all you actually
    need), but that's another story).
    You can do this with an awful lot of pain, using the innards of the compiler from iside your own program, compiling the new Form's source code on the fly and then executing the resulting assembly within your application.  IMHO, that's a simply terrifying
    prospect especially as the code you will be compiling will be on someone else's machine and over which you will have absolutely no control.  If you're lucky, they'll spell something wrong and it won't compile.
    The "usual" way to do this sort of thing is to create additional, "plug-in" forms as library assemblies and have your program load and execute these at run-time.

    I downloaded the full Ultimate Christmas.  I have a corrupt song.  I have Windows XP so I can not use the iTunes Cloud.  It says that is the only way to re-download songs now is via the Cloud.  How do I get a uncorrupted version of my song?
    When I thing of the Thousands of dollars I have spent to get a 2000 song library and how Applle keeps screwing Windows users (no back-up of songs) I just think what a fool I was.

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?
