Boot Camp 3.1 32 bit download problem

Manual or Apple Software Update of Boot Camp 3.1 won't work
Manual download of file seems to be broken (icon for program is not the same as the ones for BC3.2,BC3.3)
ASU downloads and indicated that it installed but never show any progress in doing so. Say to finish installing you need to restart. I restart and run ASU again and again  BC3.1 update is availible. Done this 4 times before I gave up and started searching the web. I have a Macbook Pro

Gosh  you again

Just for you
     this is what SOLVED MY problem back in Sept 2012
The link to apple server is/was broke
to fix do this
In Windows bottom left click on windows symbol and do a search for "cmd"
then right click and Run as administrator
then Type in "notepad c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts" without the quotes
when notepad pops up last line type in
"63.80.242.43 swcatalog.apple.com" again without the quotes
close window and save
now run "Apple Software Updater" it should now work properly

  • Urgent help needed related to boot camp and Win7 32 bit

    I have installed boot camp and Win7 32 bit on my iMac (2010) but I can't start from my mac os even by holding the option key. Windows doesn't recognize my wireless mouse either, but for now going back to the mac os is the priority. Can anyone help please?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Hold the Option (Alt) key after hearing the startup chime and until you see all bootable partitions in the screen. Do you see the OS X partition? If so, select it to start up in OS X. If you want to start up in OS X by default, open System Preferences > Startup Disk, and select your OS X partition.
    Respecting to your wireless mouse, you have to install the Windows support software. To download it, you can use Windows or OS X, from this site > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630 If you are in Windows, decompress the file and run the installer. If you are in OS X, follow the steps of the website to burn it to a USB drive

  • "Your bootable USB drive could not be created" "Boot Camp only supports 64-bit Windows installation on this platform. Please use an ISO file for 64-bit Windows installation."

    I try to install windows7 system on my macbook air, which version is 10.8.5. When I open the bootcamp, it let me to choose a windows ISO image, which I've already downloaded from this website: http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325 /, it also asked me to select a USB drive, which is kingston that has 8GB. Then when I clicked "continue", it said that "Your bootable USB drive could not be created" "Boot Camp only supports 64-bit Windows installation on this platform. Please use an ISO file for 64-bit Windows installation." But actually the ISO image I downloaded is 64-bit windows7. I don't know why this would happen. Could someone help me please!!

    Thanks for your feedbakc Kiranjj!
    I identified the reason to be that the W8 installation file didn't download completely from a Mac OS-device. I downloaded from another Win-device and the moved the installation file with a USB-stick and then everything worked diectly! But thanks anyway.

    Try the Boot Camp Assistant when you are in OS X and download those and follow the directions in BCA utility.
    Then look up the Boot Camp forum. I suspect you thought this was MBP related forum, it is for 65 lb tower model (and well the new "nMP Late 2013 Mac Pro" http://www.apple.com/support/macpro/

  • Boot Camp - Windows 7 (64-bit) - Catalyst Control Center

    Hi,
    This topic is all about running Catalyst Control Center on your Mac in Boot Camp.
    Setup:
    Mac Pro 2.66 (early 2009)
    ATI Radeon HD 5870
    Boot Camp 3.2
    Windows 7 (64-bit) SP1
    Case:
    First I uninstalled all graphic drivers that came with Mac OS disc. After that I booted up in safe mode and removed all left-overs with Drive Sweeper. After verifying that everything was gone I booted up in standard mode and installed latest version of Catalyst Software Suite (v.11.2).
    Notice! To get through with the installation of CSS I had to uncheck features like drag and drop decoding. If I did not uncheck those features the installation process would fail...no clue why. After a "successful" installation it still does not work. When I right-click the CCC shortcut or try to start the application from its folder nothing happens.
    *Solution (if any):*
    Any ideas?
    <Edited by Host>

    I had trouble accessing catalyst control center (for my AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series display adapter) on my Windows partition (64-bit).  I tired installing the drivers from the mac os x cd and from AMD's web site.  While I could successfully install the driver, I couldn't get the control center up and running.  The interesting solution to this problem was downloading the AMD Catalyst™ 12.2 Preview Driver.  After installation, i was able to access the catalyst control center and solve a problem that I was having (undersize on my monitor when using HDMI).  I hope that this helps solve the problem to others who are experiencing it (I thought I'd post as this page came up in my solution searching).

  • HT4407 No boot camp drivers for 64-bit Windows 7 installed

    Dear Family,
    I'm unable to download the Window Support on the boot camp assistant.
    I installed the 64-bit version of Windows 7 on my 15" Mac of 2010 model running on Lion n the Windows have no wifi so i guess the drivers are needed.
    Returning back to Boot camp assistant to download the latest support from Windows but
    It keep prompting:
    "Can't install Windows Support Software because you are not connected to the Internet."
    When my wifi is on and even if i'm on ethernet.
    Is there anywhere i can directly download the bootcam, i suppose its 4.0 or 4.1
    cant find any link.
    Need you folks to help me out.
    Without the Windows, i cant have my access and my assignment requires Access. N even the Business edition of MS Office Mac 2011 aint hv got Access.
    Thanks so much!
    Kryz

    Obviously you are and can connect to the net.
    The error message and problem is quite well 'documented' by other threads and the fault lies with Boot Camp Assistant's configuration.
    Try turning off auto proxy in OS X network control panel and play around wtih that.

  • Windows 7 x64  Boot Camp 3.1 Nvidia 8600M GT problem

    Hi,
    I'm running windows 7 ultimate x64. I also run snow leopard and had the corresponding version of boot camp installed (3.0 I believe).
    I installed bootcamp 3.1 when the apple software update suggested it. It said it installed but on reboot it has messed up my graphics card - in device manager it shows as an unknown device. I can't install any nvidia drivers (they just fail saying that nothing was altered), I've tried uninstalling bootcamp 3.1 and reinstallling 3.0 but it's still the same - no graphics drivers and I can't install any new ones?
    How can I get the nvidia drivers to install? I've tried from all sorts of sources and no luck. I tried using drivesweeper to clean the drivers off (after uninstaling them) but on reboot it says the same ones are still there. What do I have to do to undo the damage Apple have done?
    thanks for any help,
    Jez

    Hrm, it's been ages since the op, but here's my 2 cents.
    I have a macbook pro with windows 7 ultimate x64 installed through bootcamp 3.1. Here is how I ensure clean driver installs.
    1. Download Driver Sweeper
    2. Install
    (make sure to let driver sweeper run as admin)
    3. Uninstall graphics driver
    4. Reboot into safe mode
    5. run driver sweeper
    6. check nvidia display box
    7. click analyze
    (should list all the nvidia related files, folder, registry entries left behind)
    8. click clean
    9. reboot normally
    10. reinstall desired graphics driver
    (i use 197.16 w/out any problems so far)
    11. reboot
    Also, as a nice, but probably not necessary step, when I'm in safe mode and after I have used driver sweeper, I like to run Auglogics Boostspeed to do a quick junk file scan, track eraser scan, and advanced registry scan before I reboot normally. This is the method I use whenever I install/uninstall graphics drivers. I've never had to deal with bad installs since I started to use this method.
    This method works with all driver types listed in driver sweeper and if it's something not listed in driver sweeper, I've found doing a reg/file clean in safe mode with a reliable cleaner does the trick.
    If it's still not working I'd restore to before bootcamp installation or uninstall bootcamp and the graphics driver. Do a reg/file clean. Finally reinstall bootcamp, and restart from step 3 listed above.
    IF IT STILL doesn't work out, I'd do a fresh reinstall following this guide:

  • Boot Camp wont install 64 bit Windows 7 on iMac 2012

    Hello guys,
    I just bought the iMac 27" Late 2012 and im looking into installing Windows 7 via bootcamp.
    At first I downloaded 32 bit Windows from DigitalRiver and tried to install Windows it then let me know that 64bit Windows was required. So I went ahead and downloaded the 64 bit Windows 7 and tried again but it is still giving me the same issue as before "BootCamp only supports 64-bit Windows installation on this platform..."
    What can I do about this?

  • Boot Camp Windows OS won't download

    Using Boot Camp I installed Windows XP Professional SP3 and ran the Boot Camp disc. Now the problem is Windows, which I've never used before. I needed to use it for one program that Mac doesn't run, but it won't let me download anything from the internet, this includes Google Chrome, IMGBurn, etc. Anyone know anything about this?

    No other problems with browsing, but now that you mention it I remember clicking on an icon in the lower right corner that said something wasn't connected properly, but I disregarded it since the internet was working (I'll look for it in a minute when my sisters get off the laptop I was using).
    I just figured that the issue could be solved by going into System Preferences, or whatever the Windows XP equivalent is. Whenever I click a download link, a window briefly flashes as if it's going to download, but nothing ever does.

  • XP in Boot Camp crashes when trying to download from Internet

    My XP in Boot Camp crashes when I try to download a program off the Internet. When I am downloading a certain program, after a few minutes the computer screen shows a bunch of numbers and letters then ends up re-booting. Any ideas/suggestions?

    I would say this looks like a hardware problem. Do you have problems back in Mac OS X? If so it may be time to take your computer to an Apple Store or some other place to have it checked.

  • Boot Camp fails saying 64-bit Windows 7 .iso is 32-bit

    I've a Windows 7 Home Premium licence. According to Microsoft, the correct .iso for 64-bit Windows 7 home premium is X17-58997. And yet when I try to install this using Boot Camp, the Assistant tells me this is NOT a 64-bit version of Windows and can't be installed.
    How can I get around this

  • Boot Camp - Windows 7 (64 bit) - Apple Studio Display - Driver

    Used Bootcamp to add Windows 7 to my Mac Pro running 10.6.4
    Works great but the Apple Studio Display becomes too dim on start-up of Windows 7 & I cannot control the brightness by using the Display's control.
    As well, there is no software control.
    Any idea where I can obtain a Driver for this Display for the 64 bit version of Windows 7?
    Many thanks!
    ...John

    From what I've found, it comes from some driver introduced in the boot camp update 2.1.
    Some workarounds:
    - install winACD, but it doesn't work on 64 bits systems, so no luck for us
    - boot in OSX, set the brightness as you want, disconnect the USB from the ADC adapter, then boot in windows. But you lose the USB ports of the display, you have to reconnect it when you use OSX if you want to enjoy your display, and you have to reboot 2 times if you want to change the brightness in windows...
    Some person said that it was caused by "KbdMgr.exe", but I couldn't find it.
    A real solution, like a boot camp driver update would be great...

  • Boot Camp & Windows 7 64-bit

    I've upgraded and want to upgrade the Boot Camp drivers in Windows 7, however the 64-bit installer doesn't seem to work, giving me "Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model".
    I went the old route and tried to install the individual drivers in the x64 folder manually, and that seems to work, but I can't find the driver that allows read access to OS X volumes.
    According to this (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846) my late-2008 unibody 13-inch MacBook is not supported for 64-bit, but I'm unsure why, since I used to use the 64-bit Vista and am currently using 64-bit Windows 7.
    Any help is appreciated.
    -Chris

    I'm fully aware that Windows 7 hasn't been publicly released, however it makes no sense that the Boot Camp drivers included with 10.6 will not work with Windows 7 64-bit, since the drivers included with 10.5 worked fine with Windows 7, even though it is pre-release.
    Second, 64-bit drivers are included with the 10.6 install disc, so clearly Apple has planned for it.
    My thought is that since my machine isn't listed on the "supported" 64-bit machines, for some strange reason, Apple is disallowing it.

  • Boot Camp / Win 7 (64-bit) install hangs at "windows loading files"

    I was hoping I might get some help from the community. I've got the new MBP 15", 2.66/i7 and OS 10.6.3. I launch Boot Camp utility, assign a partition for Windows (76 GB in this case), insert the Win 7 disc (Home Premium 64-bit OEM I just bought) when prompted, and the laptop restarts.
    It asks me to press any key to boot off the CD/DVD (screen color is blocked a bit oddly, but no worries). I press a key, screen goes black, and the message, "windows is loading files" appears. The white status bar below it progresses from the left all the way to the right, and then the whole process freezes before going to the next step.
    I found another person's solution post on this here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=703045
    I haven't tried it yet, because I don't understand if I have too format the whole drive or just a partition. I don't understand his solution completely, so I was hopeful someone could tell me if it even sounds like it might work or if there is another known solution.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for including the details. Up front even better. Two different makes? AMD and Nvidia do not play together in Windows. 2 'extra' means 3 GPUs. Now there I would look at leaving just one.
    What I meant to say was just leave the one drive where Windows will go, no other drives present - pull those sleds. And put Windows in bay #1.
    Slowest burn speed, which is usually 2x but if 4x is the slowest setting, fine. Odd behavior and bad installs even when it does appear to.

  • Pull-DP and BITS Download Problem

    Hi,
    We have a ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 primary site, a remote Pull-DP and a remote DP with MP in untrusted forest, working on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
    DP replication works well if I use primary site server as a source but it doesn't work if I use remote untrusted DP as Pull-DP source. I've read that it supported scenario to use untrusted DP as a source DP.
