Boot camp not recognize keyboard and mouse when installing windows 7 pro 64 bit

Hi,
I have some issue when installing windows 7 pro 64 bit using boot camp. after done partitioning the windows drive and when boot to windows installation process, i've got stuck in the first screen when choosing the language. it seems that the keyboard and mouse are not detected.
i'm using boot camp ver. 5.0.
does anyone have similar problem with me?

I have finally successfully installed Windows 7 x64 on MacBook Air 13.3" (2013) thru Bootcamp.
Problem: After Windows 7 install thru BootCamp, I got to the first login screen and not input devices (Mouse, keyboard, USB) worked. I tried to boot into Windows Safemode, but I received the error "Windows can not complete installation in Safe Mode".
Cause: WIndows 7 does not have native USB 3.0 drivers, included on the install images.
Resolution: I downloaded the latest device drivers with thru BootCamp and copied them to the USB Flash Drive that had my bootable Windows 7 x64 install on it. The second option in BootCamp is "Download Support Media". This does more than just download drivers. It creates a file called "autoattended.xml". This is key as it tells Windows during the install process to use the device drivers that you download. Otherwise, you need to do it manually, which you can't because you have no mouse or keyboard.
NOTE: I had no need of a super drive because I had all the files on one USB flash drive. Therefore, I don't think it matter which side of the MBA the USB drive was plugged in, as other solutions suggested.

Can you share just one application on yourscreen and not the complete screen?

you can share both your entire screen, or just a specific window of program in your computer. it is not possible to give someone a remote access to your computer through skype, and it is also not possible to share your mouse and keyboard.

Boot Camp, Aluminium Bluetooth Keyboard & Mighty Mouse not seen by Windows

I recently installed bootcamp (win xp pro sp2), and am unable to get windows to recognise my bluetooth keyboard and mouse. they work fine in OSX, and i know that the bluetooth drivers are good in windows because i can connect to my phone. I think the problem may be with pairing them with multiple computers, because while trying to figure out why it wasnt working i attempted to pair the keyboard with my ibook g4, and was unable untill i removed it from my MBP through system prefs. I have searched high and low and havent been able to find a solution, any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

What I have had to do, after booting into Windows, is toggle the mouse and keyboard power off and on. After about 3 or 4 seconds, Windows finally "sees" the input devices and everything works fine. It is a pain, I know.

HT3924 can i use iMac keyboard and mouse when it is in Target Display Mode and attached to my MBP?

I can attach my iMac to my MBP via thunderbolt and run it in Target Display Mode, so that itsimply becomes a screen attached to my MBP.
What I really want is for the keyboard and mouse of my iMac to also operate as if they were attached to my MBP, but I cant seem to achieve this.
Is it possible?

Its a wireless mouse and keyboard - dont think I can re-pair the keyboard to MBP since I need it talking to the iMac to enable and disable TDM?
I expected TDM to natively pass through the mouse and keyboard to the MBP, since that is the obvious user requirement. But this does not happen.
So I guess I want a workaround so my iMac keyboard and mouse can drive my MBP while attached via Thunderbolt cable in TDM mode.

New Mac Pro does not include Keyboard and mouse

I had not noticed and forgive me if it's already been raised, but I think it's a low blow that Apple is charging if you want a keyboard and mouse with the new Mac Pro's. Sorry but in my opinion this is the height of cheapness. C'mon Apple every desktop Mac I have bought (mac user since 1991) has come with a keyboard and mouse. Does it really affect your bottom line so much to include these? I have always thought of Apple as a class act, thinking of the extras and thoughtful customer service. While this is not a deal breaker for me it sure gives me pause.... Sad.

Apple has almost always charged on the Pro machines the keyboard and mouse. Pros tend to want to customize what keyboard and mouse they use more often than people with "consumer machines."
If you go to http://www.archive.org/ you'll find that to be the case.

System Preferences: Could not load Keyboard and Mouse

Hi all, so after inadvertently reverting my Keyboard and Mouse PreferencePane to v3.0 (I'm currently on 10.4.11), my keyboard shortcuts are not being saved. I've tried countless ways to put the current version, 3.2, back into the PreferencePanes folder, repaired permissions and trashed the systempreferences.plist, but every time I open Sys Prefs again, Keyboard and Mouse cannot be loaded. I've tried installing the Pane using Pacifist which results in the same problem (using the 10.4.11 single, ie not combo update) and installing the single 10.4.11 update works, creating Keyboard and Mouse 3.2, but this Pane still cannot be loaded. If anyone has any idea how to make 3.2 work with the rest of my system- possibly with something related to Extensions? that's what started this problem- I would be extremely grateful.

Hi endingstart, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Use Disk Utility to Verify the HD first, then it appears to be time for An Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...

Ultraslim Plus keyboard and mouse issues with windows 8.1 (hesitation/jerkiness)

I'm just wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues with their Ultrslim Plus keyboard and mouse after the update to windows 8.1? Mine seems very hesitant missing lots of key presses and the mouse pointers movement accross the screen is jerky. I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers but it still isn't working like it was yesterday. Batteries for both show as 100% and nothing else has changed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

My mistake. I'd installed version 1.5, the updated version 1.8 (specifically mentions windows 8.1 on download link) works perfectly.

Why does Boot Camp not recognize Windows ISO image(s) ?

Dear friends,
My intention is to install Windows 7 on my Mac
(I've several Windows OS .iso images)
in the "BOOTCAMP" called partition, created by Boot Camp 3.0 application, on my internal drive.
This is a 32 GB partition, being FAT32 formatted,
but any version of Windows 7 (when installing)
will surely want to be on an NTFS volume and reformat it.
I've already burned 3 ISOs, with Toast Titanium 10.0.7 (speed : 2x, less not possible), on 3 DVDs :
— 1 DVD -RW with W7 Enterprise x64 (with folders and strict ISO 9660 names) ;
— 1 DVD -RW with W7 Enterprise x86 (32-bit) with one unique ISO, alone ;
— 1 DVD -R with W7 Ultimate x86 (32-bit) with one unique ISO, alone.
*Boot Camp doesn't recognize these discs as Windows installation DVDs*,
and so does nothing but wait.
I'm sure that something is missing on the disks to be recognized
as bootable Windows installation discs,
but I absolutely don't know what (setup.exe, for example, or another .exe file ?).
Do I have to do something with the burning options
(strict ISO 9660 naming, Mac names authorized, Hybrid Mac and PC,
Joliet names or not, folders or not, etc.)
Do I have to do something with the ISO image (any ISO I have), and how, and what ?
I've also activators and many other things (.exe files),
but I think they have to be used AFTER installation.
Thank you very much in advance for your help !
With my kind regards,
Olivier Herrbach

Dear baltwo,
Thank you very much for your feedback.
I'll go there immediately. It's obvious for me that only one .iso file, alone on a DVD, can't be sufficient, comparing with +(but I don't know what)+ is on a Microsoft Windows Install DVD.
With my kind regards
Olivier Herrbach
PS : I didn't have any time to reply to anyone, when I asked "How can I move something (copying it) without leaving original in it's place ?". Someone had the answer : "Drag and hold down cmd while releasing mouse". OK, it works, but you have to have good nerves, because folders open when doing that (I changed delay in Finder Preferences to the slowest), and there's also another inconvenient : I don't trust in copy (I want a one by one byte result), so I have to write what Get Info says BEFORE, and compare it after that with what Get Info says. In this case, I prefer to return to my old habits.
PPS : I observed, and I will tell it somewhere when possible, that *Get Info gives false informations*.
For example, I copied a folder with 58 items inside. Get Info didn't give me the same number of bytes for the copy as for the original. So, I did Get Info for *EACH of the 58 items*, wrote the results (in bytes) on a paper, and after adding *all the bytes of the copy*, found THE SAME NUMBER *as the total size of the original.* That's how I waste my time !
Good evening, hoping to read you somewhere soon.

How do I install a keyboard and mouse drivers if Windows is down Pavilion a1630n

Windows on My Pavilion boots and comes up but it sits there on the monitor as no input device keyboard or mouse are registering. I did a virus scan with a rescue disk but nothing found. I boot with Ubuntu and it works fine.
What can I do?

Hello PCcurious, Have you tried to enter the BIOS with the keyboard? The BIOS should have support for the keyboard even before Windows is loaded.
If you can manage to get into the BIOS, you can set the keyboard for no errors.
You might also try reseting the BIOS if this does not work.
Please click the White Kudos star on the left, to say thanks.

Installed a RAID card in my Dell Inspiron 3847. However, the RAID BIOS does not show up and I cannot install Windows 7 to it.

That is basically a summary of the problem The Dell Inspiron 3847 does not come with RAID, so I tried installing a PCI-express 1x RAID card. However, the RAID BIOS never shows up. The HDDs show up when I install the RAID controller driver in Windows 7 setup, but I cannot install Windows 7. I am using an IOCrest SY-PEX40008 RAID card with a Silicon Image Sil3124 chipset.
I tried pressing the hotkeys for the RAID BIOS listed in the card's manual, but it seems to just cause bootup to freeze. BIOS also does not seem to detect the RAID card HDDs as boot options.

%AppData% is the name of an environment variable.
On XP that variable points to C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders, use %APPDATA% in the File name field

Very slow USB keyboard and mouse when performing scp copy

Hello,
As the title says, my Mac becomes very unresponsive when I copy large file via scp command. Keboard seems to read only a few letters than it "sleeps" acceptin a letter every ~2s, mouse moves "by hops" over the screen.
The scp seems to use available bandwith (~300kB/s), so seems ok. The CPU is 95% idle, so again seems OK. Disk is mostly idle.
My system configuration:
- Mac mini 5,1
- Lion
- USB keyboard + mouse (combo)
What else can I check to solve the problem? I need to use ssh/scp.
Update: Just when writing the post I got an idea to test Bluetooth keyboar+mouse. The result is that Bluetooth imput devices works without degradation, whilst at the same time the USB devices gets slow. I have tested the pendrive read/write and it is also affected by the SCP command. Any ideas why SCP over WiFi degrade USB operations? Is there any USB monitoring tool/command?
I do not want to stick with the crappy standard Bluetooth keyboard when I have a split ergonomic USB keyboard. Anyway, I was looking for a good ergonimic Bluetooth keyboard but was unsuccessful. However the exclusive, either scp either USB at a time, copy operation is also a hindrance.
Thanks in advance!

Found the root cause of the problem - dying battery in my wireless keyboard. Why it degraded in operation under such condition, with SCP running, and not otherwise is a great mystery but a few days later it started to degrade all the time.

Yosemite 10.10.2 freezes my keyboard and mouse on my Mac Pro

I own a Mac Pro (Late 2009), 2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 3GB memory 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC, NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB graphics card.
Ever since the latest Yosemite upgrade (10.10.2), my computer will boot up fine, but within a minute or so, the mouse and keyboard are no longer responsive. The computer still runs in the background—Google Drive updates, browser windows open, the shutdown window pops up when I press the power button—but I can't move the mouse or make the keyboard work.
The keyboard is wired, but the problem persists whether I plug it into a different USB port or not. I have tried both my Bluetooth mouse (a brand-new Logitech Anywhere MX) and an older corded Magic Mouse, but neither works. I've unplugged the Bluetooth dongle for the MX to see if that's causing the problem and tried the Magic Mouse in other USB ports, also to no avail.
Starting the computer in Safe Mode eliminates the freezing, so I suspect the problem is not a fatal or unfixable one.
How can I trace the source of this problem? I haven't found others having similar issues.
Thanks in advance!

You are most welcome.

Suppress "Warning: Automatic update is not enabled..." when installing Windows role or feature with Powershell

I've written a powershell script to prep server for SCCM 2012 and the only annoyting thing I can't seem to get rid of is the yellow warning message that appears as a result of installing new Windows roles/features. The specific message is: "Warning:
Automatic updating is not enabled. To ensure that your newly-installed role or feature is automatically updated, turn on Windows Update."
Is there an "undocumented" silent switch that I can append to the "Install-WindowsFeature" command-let that suppresses this?
Thanks for any guidance anyone has found for this.

Hi,
I'm not completely sure about this, but you could try setting the $WarningPreference variable to SilentlyContinue.
