Why is Bootcamp is not working right on my MacBook Pro (No Bootable Device)?

Question

      I am not a computer geek but I learned a lot through reading forums and other people’s experiences. I want to use Windows 64bit in order to work on an Architecture portfolio using AutoCAD, Revit, 3DS Max, Sketchup, Photoshop, and Illustrator. I use these programs at school and on a PC and love it. I want to use these programs at home but wasn’t confortable with the Mac version so I had Windows installed on Parallels but even after upgrading my RAM to 10GB my computer was quite slow so I rather work on my projects separate from my Mac side (also, would feel less distracted) and set up Windows on Bootcamp, but I’ve encountered some issues.
        I wasn’t planning on partitioning my hard drive until after updating to Mavericks. Then I noticed I did not have the option to create a Windows 7 install disk so I reprogrammed the info.plist for the option to appear. After following all three steps, the computer restarted with a black screen that read “No bootable device – insert boot disk and press any key”
-Pressing any key didn’t help so I restarted and held the alt/option key until the booting options popped up and only got
     -Macintosh HD
     -Recovery HD
-Did not get a Bootcamp boot option so I repartitioned the hard drive to a single volume and repeated several times and still the same thing
-I tried using Disk Utility to partition, but the results were the same
-I tried using a different Windows7.iso file and still the same
-I also tried a 2.0 and 3.0 USB thumb drive for the .iso file
-Bootcamp Partition shows up on my Finder window on the side tab under ‘Devices’ and shows up on Disk Utility, but not on Startup Disk and not when I start my computer and hold alt/option.
-I did not plug in the Windows Support Software at all (I read somewhere that said not to plug in until after Windows partition boots and installs, but didn’t even get to that point)
-Had no CD nor USB plugged in other than the flash drive that carried the .iso
-I read a comment that said to copy the files bootcamp made (WINISNSTALL) to the ‘root’ of the flash drive, but that I see they are already on the ‘root’ (unless I don’t know what root is?)
-I also tried reformatting the partition on Disk Utility from MS-DOS (FAT) to Windows FT Filesystem but fails every time
-I also made a backup, and restored the computer (took hours!) and repeated everything
-After trying almost everything, I still get the “No bootable device – insert boot disk and press any key” message.
When it gets to reformatting, I have no idea what I am doing, the only reason I am trying all these methods is because of what I read on other peoples success stories and comments, but its either my computer does not work, I am missing something, or I’m not geek enough.
-Just to let you know, the first .iso I had worked on Parallels but not for Bootcamp
-I don’t think this matters but I am trying to partition my 320GB hard drive at 70GB for the Windows side. The only thing I will be installing would be the architecture programs while my projects and files would be saved on an external hard drive.
-Computer is up to date at version 10.9.1
-MacBook is from Early 2011, 13-incher
-The only method I could think of that I did not try was using a DVD to create an .iso disk because most comments said USB gave the best results.
-Should I use my Hitachi 250GB External Hard Drive 2.0 instead of a USB Sandisk 16GB 3.0 and Verbatim 4GB 2.0
PLEASE HELP ME ANY ADVICE WOULD HELP!! And Happy Holidays!

Your post is incredibly hard to read, font is way to small.
If you used Boot Camp Assistant to create a partition to install Windows to you need a REAL Windows 7 or 8 install media and license key and you have to actually install Windows on your Mac. Boot camp is only for creating a partition to install Windows and starting the Windows install from REAL Windows install media.
That Windows install media has to be a DVD disc, if your Mac has a built in DVD drive (Apple does not allow Windows to be install any other way on Mac computers that originally come with a built in DVD drive), or from a USB stick with the actual Windows install files on it (Not an ISO of the Windows install files).
So the question is did you install Windows on your Mac? It doesn't look like it from the Option key boot and the list of available Boot Devices you posted.
