Apple creates Drivers but WINDOWS won't recognize them and doesn't let me install W7

Hi dear Mac users,
Boot Camp Assistant creates my drivers for me and I can place them either in a CD or a USB Disk.
I start W7 installation and it ask me for MAC drivers, even thought I browse drivers location W7 won't recognize them.
So i checked, most of the drivers are .exe, but W7 asks for the drivers long before the installation.
(I have W7 Home Premium)
So either I'm really really dumb or there's something wrong,
Thx for your help,
Alessandro

Is it asking for Mac Boot Camp drivers OR  is it a generic Windows error asking for CD/DVD drivers?
If it's asking for CD/DVD drivers then it seems there is an issue with burning a W7 .iso, etc, images onto a disk on the Mac side. The W7 installer has the basic drivers already for everything so it can start up on any machine, for some reason that part of the iso gets buggered up when burning a disk. (or maybe gets corrupted when downloaded?). It seems to work best at x1 or x2 speeds and you may have to try other brands of disks. If you know anyone with a Windows machine you can try that.
Do a search for burning Windows 7 iso or something like that as there are quite a few post's about it.

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • I've updated my scanner driver but  Lion won't recognize  it and activate the  scanner app

    I've updated the scanner driver to Lion 10.7.1 but  the scanner app cannot be opened.

    Just to check - do you mean you've updated Lion to 10.7.1? (10.7.5 is the current version and ought to be the version you have installed so that you're up-to-date with bug fixes/security updates, etc.)
    Is the problem that since updating the OS Lion won't recognise your scanner?
    Does Image Capture in the Applications folder recognise the scanner?

  • Ipod said it needs restored but Itunes or windows won't recognize

    I have an 80 gb classic and it said one day (after being fully charged) that it needed to be restored. So I plug it in and Itunes won't recognize it and windows shows it as a removeable disk but there's no info there either. I have the latest version of Itunes and have tried everything. I plugged my wifes 80 gb in and it syncs fine. I'm just hoping I don't have to get a new one. Any ideas would be helpful, thanks.

    i tried to get the installation disc for the camcorder but mac wont' recognize it becaue it is windows based i guess.
    i just bought the camcorder a few months ago and when my computer crashed thought i'm finally getting a mac...it's been a costly venture which has resulted in more frustration than before my pc.
    now the things i want to use with my mac that i thought would be even simpler...are not even useable...
    help

    That camera shoots H.264 in an .avi wrapper.
    You will have to transfer the files via the Finder.
    Get a free copy of MPEG Streamclip and convert them to QuickTime .mov using the H.264 codec if you are presumably editing in iMovie.
    Note that your list of video codecs won't look like mine as I have Final Cut Pro, but H.264 is definitely an option for you.

  • Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) HELP!

    Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) and requires the password to do anything. Everytime I go onto the ICloud  page it shows my old email and requires the password, but I can't exactly type in a password because that won't work. I can't find a way to change my email or delete ICloud.

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

    If you've forgotten the passcode to unlock your iPad then there are instructions on this page for how to reset the iPad (your iPad doesn't need to be connected to the internet) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If your computer's iTunes isnt recognising the iPad when you connect it then have you got a recent version of iTunes installed on your computer ? There are also troubleshooting pages for a device not showing in iTunes on these pages :

  • Windows won't recognize 2nd ipod

    I have a 5th generation ipod which works perfect with windows and itunes. I purchased a Nano . I charged it up first then pluged it in the usb 2.0 port that I use with my other unit. Windows won't recognize it. I can not find it in My Computer. In the device manager it shows up under other devices with a yellow question mark.
    It claims it needs a driver and of course when I try the cd no I get one of those can't install hardware. I am using the latest versions of both software products.
    I did the 5 Rs and went through this site and the help documents and nothing works. I took it back to the Apple store and they said it was working perfect.
    So... I went home tried again, even disable my antivirus/firewall and no dice. I then tried it on my lap top and it installed and works fine. Where I am right now is copying what I wanted on one computer to CD and then importing the files ( sans song names) .
    I am baffled on this one. One unit works fine then the nano won't be recognized on the other. Suggestions?
    By a Creative?

    JAToubes: Windows can only handle one iPod connected at a time )http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61713) so make sure that your other iPod is disconnected first......you might need a re-boot before re-connecting given the yellow triangle warning.

  • Windows won't recognize any of my hardware.

    Whenever I try to open a game or anything requiring 3D graphics, it won't work. Also, the sound won't work either. I've gone under control panel and neither the sound card (or whatever the laptop equivalent is) and the graphics card are both just not being detected. I've tried installing NVidia drivers, but they won't install, and I've installed directx 11 and it still won't detect my graphics card. I've tried all the troubleshooting programs, and they can't find anything wrong, but of course they can't find the hardware itself.

    you could just use your 10.6 disk to install all the drivers on the windows half of the partition like it tells you to in the directions facepalm

    Then new version of IMovie imported nearly all of my video and then  suddenly closed.  Now it won't recognize the video that it stil hasn't  imported?  I took the sd card out of the canon camcorder but still won't  recognize or import it.  Is there a cache that needs cleared?

    Did you get any joy with answering this?
    My first thought was that maybe when you imported you chose to leave the files  in place rather than copy then to the iMovie library..but I can't see where that option is now.
    I too have created a short movie from load f clips..but can't export or share either..the 'Share 'menu is empty..you go to it and no sub menu appears.

    I am trying to copy photos from an iPad to a Mac Air, but iPhoto does not recognize them. Please forgive the ignorance, but we have just started moving to apple products and I know nothing about them. Do you have to use PhotoStream to do this?

    How did the photos that you want to copy off get on the iPad  ? To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a Mac you should be able to use iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
