Hello everyone, this problem y very weird.
I installed windows 7 with bootcamp and everytime y try to boot from windows it shuts down my mac. Th weird thing i that i installed parallels 6 in my mac and i can go inside my windows 7 partition.
When i run the windows 7 installer cd and run the trouble shooter its say that maybe i have installed a camera or something like that, remove it and restart, if the problem persists contact apple support.
Hope you can help
Thanks

Look here for a way to do it like a 2011 MBAir is set up for.
If you get it to work it will un-dim the option to create the W7 installer and Boot Camp drivers on the USB drive automatically.
I got it to un-dim for my 2010 MacPro.

After I installed windows 8.1 on mac

hi guys. I just installed windows 8.1 professional on my macbook pro mid 2012. after I installed it and i run windows 8, when Im trying to install the drivers that I've already downloaded on my flash memory from bootcamp, yet I could not find it I just found the folders and it is empty. I did download it again and I made sure they are fully completed before I switch to windows 8. Also i got the same thing

Did you allow Bootcamp Assistant to download the drivers or did you download them manually?
For Mid 2012 MBPs the drivers are Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5621. These can be directly downloaded to a USB, unzipped and installed using the setup.exe file in the Bootcamp folder.

HT1846 If I have installed windows 7 on my mac book pro, but want to install windows 8 when it comes out, how do I do that?

do I simply put the windows 8 disc in my (Early 2011 edition MBP) disc drive when I'm on my windows side and install to that same partition Bootcamp Already wrote?
Or do I have to go through Bootcamp again?

Fair point. If I had a large enough bank account I surely would be running two separate machines. With the only option being one computer for purchase I went with the Mac and windows dual as you can see by this threads title. For my case it was ideal. For you, no, but in my case there was no better option.
I understand that, and have been there but these machines (and I have a lot of Macs, only 4 PC's) are just revenue streams for me, they do various tasks cheaper than a bunch of dedicated hardware, and I can troubleshoot from a remote location far easier than I can with the dedicated stuff. The simple truth is that for me to dedicate a Mac to running one or two Windows programs entails far more cost than a Windows PC, and there is no advantage to offset the extra cost.

I have installed windows 8.1, lastest version of itunes but i can not get my iphone to sync

i have upgrade my windows 8 to 8.1 and the latest version of itunes now i'm having trouble syncing my iphone4.
Can anyone help me

Please try starting iTunes in "safe mode" by holding down CTRL immediately after clicking the iTunes icon and holding until this dialog box appears, or you get an error message:
Click Yes. Has that helped?
If not then see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, and/or TS4062: iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing.

Unable to install windows 8 on the mac

how do I install windows 8 on the Mac I tried but cannot get past windows set up . Where do you want to install windows? I have highlighted Drive 0 Partion 4 and it comes up with this We couldn't creat a new Partion or locate an existing one.

There are two different methods of installation, EFI and MBR, you are running a method which is combination of both. Either your MBR is incorrect or BCA failed to create one. EFI method requires a partition which is Free Space and the disk is GPT-only while MBR method expects to the disk to be partitioned already. If you see 'disk0 partition 4', it is the MBR method, and BCA could have failed.
Please post the output of the following Terminal command. You will be prompted for your password, and it will not be echoed back to you. "sudo" will also warn you about improper and potential data loss due to such 'abuse'.
sudo fdisk /dev/disk0
sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0

How can I set to boot from MAC OS by default after I installed Windows?

How can I choose to boot from MAC OS by default after I installed Windows? I have a MacBook Pro Leo 10.6.8. I used bootcamp to install Windows XP SP2, but now if I don't press the option key it will start up with Windows, and I don't want that. Thanks for any help.

Select it in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.

Third-party NTFS software interferes with the Apple NTFS drivers, which control whether you can see the Bootcamp partition in the Startup Disk option. As a test, can you uninstall all third-party NTFS software and check System Preferences -> Startup Disk?

Help me! I get error after install window on bootcamp

I use bootcamp to create usb window 7
But I cannot install window on bootcamp drive
After that, I restart but I get error cannot boot on black screen, help me

You need to select the BOOTCAMP Partition and click on Format. After the Installer formats it from FAT to NTFS, you should be able to install Windows.
These screens from a Mac, which does not have Recovery HD, so the numbering is different.

When installing Windows 7 on my mac through bootcamp, it always freezes at "Completing Installation"

When I try to install windows 7 on my mac, it always freezes at "Completing Installation". Does anyone know a fix for this?

Got it!
After posting my question I noticed the "More like this" category and the second discussion was a hit.

It was a display driver. All I needed to do was to boot from the CD again and following the directions in the post.
Worked like a charm.

Did you use Boot Camp Assistant?
You should be able to hold down the option key whilst booting in order to select which OS you want to boot into.

Mac OS X Leopard installation disc after I install Windows Vista

Hi everyone! Do I need to put my Mac OS X Leopard installation disc after I install Windows Vista? I try to run the windows without install Mac-specific driver for windows but it restarted and back to Mac OS. The frustrated thing is I did not bring my Mac OS with me. Anyone has any solution? Or how can i request a installation disk from Apple? Thank you!

Yes you will need to install the apple drivers for win vista. When you boot from a cold start, have you tried holding down the option key to choose which OS to boot from? If you have then, you could try going into startup options from the mac side and choose win vista if it appears. That could be risky though, as you mentioned you do not have the mac install disk. If problems arise you may need the mac install disk to undo the changes.

Can i install mac osx back again after installing windows 7 on my mac book a1181?

i have apple mac book a1181 white, but i had problem logging on as it was secured by a password, and i allready lost my recovery dvd, so i installed windows 7 on my mac book a1181 by deleting its partition from GTP to NTFS but i experienced problems after installing windows 7 as sound was not comming as i could not find sound drivers for macintosh, so now i plan again to restore my apple macbook a1181 back by reinstalling mac osx 10.5.8, how can i again install mac osx on my notebook and is it possible to re-install mac on my notebook? please give me some help.

Insert your OS X install disc and restart holding the C key, hold it down until you see the Apple logo and spinning gear. Choose your language and at the next screen from the top menu bar select Utilities-Disk Utility. Select your internal hard drive, click on the Partition tab and select 1 partition. Click on the Options button and select GUID partition scheme. Click OK. Choose to format the drive as Mac OS Extended Journaled. When Disk Utility is done and your drive is properly partitioned and formatted quit DU and go back to the installer screen and reinstall OS X. When you're up and running run software update a couple times to get everything up to date as far as you can with 10.5.8. Then consider upgrading to OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard for $19.99 here http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

Unique issue:installing windows via bootcamp

Hi
I tried googling for my issue and it looks like I am the only one facing this problem hence I suspect that I am missing or doing something wrong. Before I describe a background:
I am running late 2006 macbook pro with core 2 duo. It is running Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8.
What am I trying to achieve:
I have the release preview downloaded (way before the final version was released and I have not succeeded in installing even after it is officially released). I want to try this first given it will work till January 2013 and if all goes well I would like to install a licensed version. I am so fed up with my macbook pro and starting to hate Apple as each day passes.
According to all the tutorials online, the step to do this is run bootcamp>it will attempt to download windows support software (it attempts to download but fails consequently as mentioned in many tutorials, but not an issue if we already have the windows support software in a disc which I have too)>then click the next option to continue installing>I select how much space I need to assign for each operating system>then select the bootcamp driver partition to start installation>after inserting the windows disc and completing the installation and reboot> install the windows support software and drivers.
What happens in my case:
Start bootcamp>gives two option 1. to download windows support software or 2. if I already have the windows support files I can continue with installation> I continue with the installation>gives me a screen where I select how much space I allocate for both the operating systems>it partitions the drive>asks me to insert windows installation disc and continue> I insert the disc and continue, the machine reboots from windows installation disc>asks me to select the language>I see the installation screen>first step is it shows 'gathering device information' and this is the place where I am stuck.......
It comes up with popup window and says the disc containing device drivers are missing, please insert the disc (am i not support to run the windows support software after completing the windows installation? as mentioned in all the tutorials.) I am not sure what disc it is looking for. At this moment, I cant eject the disc with windows installation and insert the disc with windows support software as the eject button never responds, therefore I had the windows support drivers also in a usb pen drive which I browse and select - still it says 'no updated drivers found' and never gives me the option to continue with the installation. So i am fed up with this. What driver is it looking for at this moment and why did it not ask me to select the partition where I have to install the windows as mentioned in many tutorials online.
my snow leopard has bootcamp 3.0.4 version and software is upto date and cant update to new software (yes maybe after I install windows and via windows I might be able to update but not now)
Please help, I atleast want my macbook pro to run windows as it is already getting outdated and new photoshop CS and others dont support due to graphic hardware incompatibility and many others slowly cropping as it is aging.
If there is already a similar case in this forum please point me but I can find it anywhere in the web.
thanks
Sany

Are you saying that you did not complete the Windows 8 Installation? If so, you have more problems than just the drivers. Installing the drivers is supposed to occur after the Windows installation.
Please note that no Boot Camp drivers exist for Windows 8. Apple will release these drivers whenever Apple decides to. As users, none of the people on these discussion boards know for sure when this will be. Some of the users have suggested using the most up-to-date Boot Camp drivers, written for Windows 7, on Windows 8, but installing these in Windows 7 Compatibility Mode. Regardless, there are users on these discussion boards reporting major hardware malfunction, including frequent reboots (horrible for the system board, the video card (if any), and the hard disk drive) and full drive corruption (which affects your Mac OS and the Windows OS), among others. To have a reasonable timetable, it took Apple 89 days following the initial release of Windows 7 to release updated Boot Camp drivers that would handle Windows 7. Using this fact with our present situation, you are looking at January 22nd or 23rd before you might expect Apple to release drivers that will work with Windows 8. Trying to do this early on, you may end up making your system completely unusable. Judging by your previous posts, you are loathe to do so.
I would suggest waiting. Windows 8 is so touch/gesture-centric that the touchpad on your 2006 MBP will feel quite limiting. If you had a unibody MBP, Windows 8 might still be attractive, as the surface area on the touchpad is far greater. All-in-all, in your situation, saving up for a newer ultrabook with touchscreen is probably the best option to getting the most out of Windows 8. You've already stated that your computer is now virtually useless for the applications you most frequently run and you are trying one last gasp effort at restoring some of that usability by installing Windows 8. Consider that 6-7 years for a computer is practically an eternity for up-to-date software on the order of Photoshop. The only thing I can think of that might restore some of your capacity to use the hardware of your MBP longer is going the Linux route and using Gimp instead of Photoshop. Windows is seldom the route to take if your hardware has aged as much as yours has.
