Boot Camp Assistant says There is no USB drive connected to the system

I have a mid-2012 11” Macbook Air and a USB Superdrive. I am trying to use Boot Camp Assistant but it is not letting me proceed. With the Superdrive plugged and Windows 7 (full version) DVD in the drive, I get the message “No USB Drive” – “There is no USB drive connected to the system. Please insert a USB drive to continue.”
I checked using Finder and Go->Computer and there is the Windows 7 installation DVD mounted properly. The Superdrive spins up when I plug it in. I tried both USB ports. I tried re-booting with the Superdrive attached. The laptop is plugged in and there is an internet connection. It is running Mac OS X 10.8.3. I read the Installation and Setup PDF guide and there was no mention of the problem. I searched these forums and found that two other people are/have experienced the same problem, but there is no posted solution.

At the second step in the wizard, there is a dialog with three check-boxes. The only way I can proceed is if I uncheck the option "Download the latest Windows support software from Apple". When checked, I get the "No USB drive" message. Checking or unchecking the other two options does not change the behavior ("Create a Windows 7 or later install disk" and "Install Windows 7 or later"). I have tried with the Superdrive attached with Window 7 in the drive, with a blank DVD and without the Superdrive.
You are not following the Boot Camp instructions. Did you select the option to read the instructions? When running Boot Camp Assistant you are given the option to download the support software. If this is selected you must connect a usb stick that is correctly formatted per the instructions. At this point in the process you sshould not have your superdrive or Windows dvd connected.
Read the instructions.

Punctuation would make your post a little easier to read and understand.
What do you mean it won't hook up to iTunes? you mean iTunes does not recognize the device? If that's what you mean, one of these might be helpful.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

Then ask him. You already know where to find him.

Hi Chris, I know where to check for updates but after I agree to terms conditions etc it asks to restart the computer before it can start downloading. I do that and it keeps repeating the process?

Yes, it works. Download the trial and see for yourself. Adobe never updates the system requirements after any version is released, so that is what was available last Sept. when PSE 13 was released.

When trying to install downloaded software I am prompted to connect to the internet but I already am connected and the software will not install.

A cable modem always needs a complete reset whenever you change the device that it is connected to.
To get your Internet signal restored, it will require at least one major step including the reset of your modem and complete network power cycle.
If that is not successful, the second major step is to reset the AirPort Extrreme back to factory defaults and then combine the steps above again.
Try this first:
Push the reset button on the cable modem (if present) and pull the internal batter (if easily accessible) then power off the modem
Power off everything else on your network....all devices....order is not important
Wait at least 20 minutes...longer will not hurt
Make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN port (circle of dots or world icon) on the AirPort Extreme
Re-install the modem battery if it was pulled in the step above
Power up the modem and let it run for 4-5 minutes by itself
Power up the AirPort Extreme and let it run for 4-5 minutes
Power up each other network device one at a time about a minute apart until everything is powered back up
Check the network for proper operation

Installing the appropriate combo update may help...
If you are running v10..7 Lion, install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo)
For 10.6 Snow Leopard > Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Then restart your Mac. Try the App Store.
If that doesn't help, try the following..
Quit the App Store if it's open.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Click Go
Move the NetworkInterfaces.plist file from the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the App Store and try downloading Mountain Lion.
You may also need to disable anti virus software and turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security (or Security & Privacy) > Firewall

I'm trying to get windows xp home edition to install. I partition my drive, I put windows XP in, I tell it to install. It reboots, it spits xp out, and it boots up in OS X like normal. No installation screen, no error messages. I have no idea what to do at this point, my macbook pro is a 15 inch and I would appreciate any help I can get, thanks

Did you see thread of another person with trouble installing?
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3808299?tstart=0
Things to try:
reseat the RAM - been there, done that with someone. Even though said it was "fine" and worked in OS X. Their RAM was not fully seated. On PCs it is not unheard of to remove some RAM during install, or use to be.
If you have two drives - unplug one (the SSD). Having two GPT is an issue. Sounds like this is NOT an issue though.
External Superdrive: not an issue, seems you were able to boot from DVD.
Otherwise, you need to edit a plist, not supported by Apple otherwise (there is a thread on how to add your MacBook Pro model number)
SP1 has been an issue for some systems - not sure why and horrible seeing it is newer and is the current version, but their system did work with pre-SP1
This is a DVD you bought, not one you burned. We all know by now the issue surrounding burning an ISO with Disk Utility.
I'm grabiing at straws but does any of that give you any ideas?

Don't know the password to my old icloud account...can someone help me please?

Okay, I have an Iphone 5s that I'm having problems with. I had a 4s and set up an apple account and Icloud account on that phone but ended up giving it to my mother and got me a new one. Well somehow my new one will not let me restore it back to its original settings. Keeps telling me I need my password to my old account and I have no idea what it could be and it will not send me a email or anything to reset it. I had the find my iphone app on it before and its saying to turn that off I have to have the old password. Guessing that somehow the new phone was synced with the itunes from my old one by the computer and now I can't get past all of it. Can anyone please help???

I have been researching this for hours and can't seem to find a fix. Beyond frustrated and upset now and know I won't be able to sleep tonight
