Bootcamp 3.0.4 on Snow Leopard won't give me the option to install Windows XP

Created a partition to install Windows using bootcamp assistant 3.0.4 on Mac Pro running Snow Leopard, however the only option it can give me is for Windows 7 and above, and it refuses to recognise my Windows XP disc.
How do I download previous versions of Bootcamp that do support Windows XP? Or how do I work around this to install Windows XP myself? Step by step help please, as I am a novice.

There is no support software download for XP. Here are the system requirements from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634 for your Mack Pro.

  • I use an external hard drive as a Time Machine back up, but I want to use another external hard drive to save movies, photos on it, but it won't give me the option to save anything on the new external hard drive. Nothing is wrong with the external hard.

    Hi Clarkett99,
    To use an external hard drive for your iTunes library, see the steps in this article -

  • HT201272 I downloaded an album but one of the songs is corrupted, it only plays for about 4 seconds. When I try to re-download using the iTunes Store and "Purchased", it won't give me the option to download it again. How can I get the song I PAID for!!??

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    For the security questions, it won't give me the option to change it. Like when I go to manage my account,it doesn't say  " send security code." What should I do?

    The reset will only show if you had put a rescue email address on your account, if you aren't getting the link then you don't have one and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • How to uninstall bootcamp partition if the assistant only gives me the option to install bootcamp?

    I am trying to uninstall my Bootcamp partition but when I open bootcamp assistant it only gives me the option to install a bootcamp partition.
    Thanks

    Either use Paragon's CampTuneX to resize it or use Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition and restore the drive to one partition. Then create a new, larger Boot Camp partition. This will remove/delete/erase your Windows system.

  • Whenever I try to download a PDF to save for future use, it keeps opening up the text in my email and won't give me the option to download and save.  Any suggestions?

    whenever I try to save a PDF document on mu iPad, it will only open up as text in my email and won't give me an option to download and save.  Any suggestions?

    You can hold down on the open PDF and get the option to Open In -  in the resulting pop up window.

  • IChat won't give me the option to video

    I wanted to make a video call to one of my friends but neither of our video buttons were useable, they were grayed out and won't work. We are able to text chat but that's the only option it gave us. I don't understand why it won't work, because we both use MacBooks (obviously). I have an @mac.com as my apple ID on my account and she has an @gmail.com on hers, should this make any difference?

    Hi,
    We need to be clear about names here.
    In iChat you can enter names that are MobileMe, @mac.com or AIM and they will all login to the AIM Server.
    (your so called AIM Buddy List)
    You can also use a Gmail ID and create Googletalk Account in iChat (once you have turned On Talk at your Google Settings)
    Also you can add other Jabber IDs and in iChat 6 Yahoo ones.
    With Google List or a Jabber list you can add other Jabber or Google Buddies. These include Facebook Buddies as Facebook runs a Jabber server.
    With an AIM Buddy list you can add any AIM Valid Name.
    I have seen a gmail name used as a AIM Name because it was registered as such.
    I have also seen a Hotmail name (Usually a valid MSN name) used as it was also Registered at AIM as a Name.
    If you can see the gmail person in your  AIM/@mac.com Buddy list then they must have registered their gmail ID as an AIM name.
    It may be possible that google are now linking to AIM and allowing gamil people to add AIM Names.
    If this is happening then you would be able to add them.
    However this is unlikely to add Video or Audio Chats.
    I also saw nothing in my Google Chat settings when I went to the Google Mail Web Page and went to Chat settings to confirm this.
    As AIM allow the @symbol to be used in a Name any email entered as a Buddy's name will work when you add it to an "AIM" Buddy list.
    Normally Gmail (or @googlemail.com) ones need to be in a Jabber/Google Buddy List to 1) be seen 2) do Vidseo iChat to iChat.

  • I mistyped a password to join a wireless network. Now it won't give me the option to put the password in again. What now?

    I forgot a password to join a wi-fy network. I now remember it but it won't ask me for it again. What can I do?

    Hi,

  • I have an ipod touch 5th generation, bought a new laptop and authorised it. when i try to sync it says it's not possible because there isn't enough space to hold everything in the itunes library.it won't give me the option of choosing what i want to sync.

    I have an ipod touch 5th generation 64g . Just bought a new laptop and authorised it to use itunes library. When i try and sync my ipod it says it can't do it because there isn't enough space on my ipod to hold everything in the itunes library. I already know that i can't fit everything on my ipod but when using my old laptop i was able to choose what i wanted to sync. Now i don't seem to have the option of choosing what i can sync, it just refuses to do it as there isn't enough space. Why is this???

  • I cancelled my home sharing half way through and now it won't give me the option to transfer the rest of my songs over... help!

    I am trying to transfer all my songs (1400 of them) from my old laptop to my new MacBook Pro. I thought I could just pop in my appleID and it would all appear! I have iTunes Match and thought that may help. None of this seemed to work, so I started the Home Transfer. Then it looked like my iTunes Match was allowing me to access my songs so I cancelled the Home Transfer. Now I'm stuck with only 349 of my songs but when I tried again, my old laptop only has that same 349 songs on the Home Sharing option too. So it seems I can't get the rest on!
    I am not very techy and very confused!
    Help!!

    Why will it not let you add them?  What specifically are you trying to do, please provide steps.
    Frankly, the only thing that should need to be done it restore the iTunes folder from the backup onto the computer.  There is no reason to add or import anything.

  • Adobe won't give me the option to 'open' files without saving.

    I was not able to open .pdf files at all and realised that Adobe Reader had somehow 'gone' from my laptop. I have reinstalled the latest version but if I want to 'open' an attachment in n email it will only give me the option to 'Save' the file. I don't want to Save every file. Can someone please advise me how to get back the option to just ' open' the file?

    I use Internet Explorer for my browser.
    A/A - I have reinstalled the latest version of AdobeReader.
    When I click an attachment to view it, the first option I am given is to 'save' the file, and then the next pop up message gives me the option to either 'open' or 'view file'. The thing is that I don't want to 'save' each file to my laptop to allow me to see it. I want to be able to merely 'open' the file to view aithout actually saving it first.
