Bootcamp doesn't support on my iMac 3TB Fusion

My new Imac with 3TB Fusion drive, try to install windows by using Bootcamp, however it doesn't support. Will apple have a solution soon?

Double check that the card works in your camera.

    2011 MacBook Pro, 64 bit i7 quad core, upgraded to Lion OSx, Bootcamp installed with Windows 7, wanting to install Windows 8 (don't ask), tried downloading/installing bootcamp 5.0.5033 (both on the mac/windows partitions (actually using a parallel to run Windows)), error message something similar to bootcamp doesn't support this Windows
    So the question is am I doing something wrong? Should I just try and install windows 8 through my windows 7 partition and see if I can use the bootcamp 5.05033. Or do I solely have to use the bootcamp to install Windows 8? I'm not too familiar with bootcamp and how it runs.

    if you're using parallels and full bootcamp then you're making it 100% more troublesome for youself then it needs to be
    bootcamp is running windows directly on the hardware this give full memory and cpu and 3d video game power
    running windows in parallels is running a virtual machine where one can't run powerful games and the like but one can have it in a window and change fast between osx and windows
    parallels as the only virutal machine (as far as I know) support not have the operating system as a file on the osx harddisk but can access a bootcamp parition as virtual machine but without the benefits bootcamps provides
    it's a service parallels provide for those who want both to play games in normal bootcamp and sometimes use windows in a virutal machine
    just install it like a normal virtual machine and you need not worry about bootcamp drivers and the likes
    plus it would mean that the windows part would be a part of the timemachine bacup of osx
    which it is not when it's in bootcamp

  • Retina iMac 3tb Fusion drive Boot Camp failure

    Trying to install Windows 8.1 to a 1tb Bootcamp partition on 3tb Fusion drive. BCA creates the partition, Windows installer sees it, but requires formatting it, but then it can't install to it. I get an error that it can't create or see the partition. I'm assuming this has to do with BCA creating the partition someplace Windows can't handle it (past the first 2.2tb of the drive).
    Here is the info requested in a previous thread.

  • Free Space Partition on Mac HD - 3TB Fusion Drive Late 2013 iMac

    I have managed to create a free space partition on my Mac HD that I now cant get rid of. This happened when I was trying to run bootcamp and during the Windows install I created a new partition that wiped the bootcamp partition and turned it into free space. Have attached a screen shot of my HD. I have already tried re-formatting the free space partition but nothing happens, just goes back to free space. Any help/ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
    Late 2013 iMac-3TB Fusion drive

    Try highlighting the top space and there should be a arrow of sorts in the bottom right hand corner, like this.
    Click and hold on it and drag it down to take up the free space.
    If there is no 45º lines then you have separated that space from the Logical Storage Volume that makes up the Fusion drive and it can't be put back in without wiping out the Fusion drive and recreating it. At least no way that I know of.

  • Can I partition a 3tb fusion drive on a 2014 imac27", with boot camp, to let me install windows 7?

    I have used boot camp to create a partition for Windows 7 on 3 earlier Macs (iMac 24" 2007 / Mac Pro 2009 / Macbook Pro 2009) as well as a recent Macbook Air 2012.
    My main reason for this is to use Sage Account/Payroll, and also a couple of other Windows-specific programs.
    I have just replaced the old iMac with a new iMac27", with a 3tb fusion drive, and want to partition it to install a new oem copy of Win 7 sp1.
    However, I found an article on this (link: http://twocanoes.com/winclone/support/installing-windows-on-a-boot-camp-partitio n-on-a-3-tb-fusion-drive) implying this might not currently be officially supported by Apple & boot camp assistant, and providing a workaround procedure to create 3 partitions. The article begins with this note: "Important Note: This help document is for reference only, superceded by updates to OS X that include support for 3TB drives and Fusion drive in Boot Camp Assistant.  Use Boot Camp Assistant to create the Boot Camp partition."
    I have two questions:
    1 - Can anyone advise if updates have now been made, to provide this support for partitioning the 3tb fusion drive?....and if not, is this likely to change soon?
    2 - If this is still not officially supported, can anyone advise if they have successfully created a Windows partition on the 3tb fusion drive & installed Win 7?
    Thanks in advance. 

    Based on Apple's knowledge base. this configuration is supported for Windows 7 x64 and 8 using Mountain Lion 108.3 or higher. Simply use BootCamp Assistant to set it up.
    See here:
      http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5639?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    and here:
      http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4441
    For your application, you might also consider virtualization software like VMWare Fusion or Parallels.
    I use both BootCamp and VMWare Fusion. Fusion is much easier to install, more flxible, runs at the same time as your Mac applications etc. For typical applications, there is no notable performance degradation.
    If you need high performance graphics for gaming, BootCamp is still the best way to go. For all other applications, I prefer VMWare.

  • HT1386 How do I sync my iphone 5s with my imac because it is only 10.6.8 and doesn't support icloud.  Apple tell me that my beautiful imac is vintage and I should ditch it!!!!  Where is their eco conscience.  I have been using mac for years and years now

    Does anyone know how to sync my iphone 5S with my imac 10.6.8 - which doesn't support icloud and can't be updated to do so.
    Apple tell me that it is a vintage computer now and I must throw it away and buy a new one.  Where is their social/eco conscience ...
    we are living in hard times trying to survive and trying to keep our businesses healthy.  Now is not the time to buy a new computer.
    What is Apple playing at??????

    You plug the phone into your computer and go to the Info Tab for the device in iTunes. Select what you want to sync. You should not attempt to sync with both iCloud and the local contacts on the Mac.
    Are you having some kind of problem doing this?

  • My new iMac doesn't support Photoshop as it is a power pc application.  How can I install it ?

    My new iMac doesn't support Photoshop as it iis telling me that it is a power pc application, which is no longer supported ....
    How can I install it ?
    Or does this mean I have to splash out on a new copy ... and all the expense that that entails ...

    Which version of Photoshop are you trying to install?
    Which operating system are you trying to install it on?
    In short, if you're trying to install an older PowerPC version of Photoshop onto an Intel-based Mac then you're out of luck.
    You could look into purchasing Photoshop Elements 11.

  • Late 2012 iMac 3TB does not support Boot Camp Assistant

    Got my new customized iMac 27' yeasterday. After installing some soft, I decided to install Windows 7 as second OS on Boot Camp. After clicking the Boot Camp Assistant icon, programm opens, and immediately it shows error "Boot Camp Assistaint does not support Windows installation on this iMac 3TB" or something like that (I have a russian version of dashboard/OS). Only option available at that moment - button "OK", which exits Boot Camp A|ssistant.
    So... Any suggestions on how to solve the problem? I really need Windows as second OS, and don't want to install it like a virtual/emulator machine.
    My customized iMac "loadout" is Core i7 3.4, 16Gb DDR, Nvidia GeForce 680MX 2Gb, 3TB Hard Drive.
    P.S. I thought this may be solved by separating Hard Drive into partitions (main, which is for Mac OS, and little tome for Windows, formated into MS DOS FAT system), still - this has not helped me.

  • New iMac doesn't support old Macbook Pro instruments

    Hi - until recently I had a MacBook Pro ( Leopard ) of about 5 years of age.  The screen completely died this month and the MacBook was un-usable.  The HD from the MacBook was migrated to a new iMac ( Lion ) a week ago. When I tried to play the 60+ songs I had created in Garage Band on the Macbook  over the last 5 years, on the new iMac, many of the instruments were un-supported by the iMac and the songs sound totally different and really are ruined.  It seems the iMac doesn't support many of the older instruments on old MacBook HD.  The HD from the MacBook Pro is fine ( it all migrated over to the iMac just fine ) and I assume it contains all my Garage Band tracks ( and I assume Garage Band itself  is on that HD? ).  Is there any way I can play my Garage Band tracks on that HD through another machine or some vehicle that will drive the HD?  In other worgs, how can I retrieve these songs with the original sounds/instruments therein?
    Many thanks if anyone can assist me .... literally hundreds of hours of work over 5 years, lost.

    It seems the iMac doesn't support many of the older instruments on old MacBook HD. 
    Instruments are not machine or OS specific.
    ( it all migrated over to the iMac just fine )
    Maybe not? Look at your loops (in HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops) and instruments (in HD/Library/Application Support/GarageBand) and compare the folders to your old HD. Maybe it makes sense to just manually copy them over and overwrite what you have on your new machine now - it can't be more, but maybe it's less.

  • Installing Windows 8 on late 2012 iMac 3TB SATA Disk

    Yes I know installing windows on the new 3TB iMac through bootcamp is not officially supported, but after doing some research it seemed that it was quite possible to do so anyways. Twocanoes seemed to have the best solution for going about this so I gave it a try
    http://blog.twocanoes.com/post/42453643591/bootcamp-on-a-3-tb-fusion-drive
    I seem to have run into a problem at the very last step. I successfully created the partitions as above, created a bootable usb with bootcamp on a different mac, and then when I go to select what drive to boot from, my bootable usb shows two different drive options (Windows and EFI). If I select Windows, I can successfully install it on to my partition, but no compatibility drivers seem to be installed with it (internet, graphics, bluetooth). If I boot from the EFI option, I make it to the windows installer, but then receive an error telling me:
    "The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."
    Any help on what I am doing wrong or what I might try will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    In the past, Windows could be installed in PCs with UEFI 2.0, but Windows 8 adds compatibility for EFI 1.x computers. What does it mean? You can install Windows in EFI mode on any Intel-based Mac with a 64-bit processor (Intel Core 2 Duo or newer).
    This mode provides a better hardware compatibility for the installer, but it will give you headaches to make it work. For example, a Mac uses a hybrid GPT/MBR table for the hard drive. It uses GPT to start in OS X, and MBR to start in OS X. The problem you have is that a Mac emulates the MBR automatically when you make a partition for Windows in the hard drive, and this is the reason why you can't install Windows in EFI mode on your Mac.
    In order to install Windows in EFI mode, you will have to leave some free space in the hard drive, and then, create the Windows partition in the Windows installer, after starting in EFI mode. However, I don't recommend you to do this, because after installation, the compatibility will be worse. You may have Internet working and the graphic card, for example, but Apple won't release updates for it, because it's not considered Boot Camp.
    In conclusion, install Windows using the "Windows" option during startup, and wait until Apple releases Boot Camp drivers compatible with Windows 8. EFI mode for Windows provides some great advantages, but Apple doesn't support it at the moment

  • Win 8.1, iMac Retina 3TB Fusion, Yosemite, Boot Camp fail!

    I've got a new iMac Retina with the 3TB Fusion drive on which I wanted to install Win 8.1 using Boot Camp. I have VMWare Fusion installed and running, but figured Boot Camp might be better for my needs.
    I read the Boot Camp Assistant instructions and it looked like it would be pretty easy to install Win 8.1. WRONG!
    I hooked up a USB HD for the driver download, hooked up the USB Apple DVD drive with the Win 8.1 installer, and started up Boot Camp Assistant.
    Assistant downloaded the drivers, created the BOOTCAMP partition, then I got into the Win 8.1 installer. Reached a screeching halt when the installer got to the point of selecting where Win 8.1 would be installed. Got the error message about BOOTCAMP partition not being an NTFS drive.
    Only one button "Format" to click to make the format NTFS. Confirmed I wanted to format, saw a brief spinning wheel, then supposedly formatting was done. Now Drive 1 Partition 4 lost the "BOOTCAMP" name and displayed no name. The "Next" button wouldn't do anything. I was stuck!
    So no go on installing Win 8.1! Booting back into Yosemite and opening Disk Utility I see the Boot Camp partition, now named "untitled," identified as an NTSF volume!
    I see a number of posts here where by using Terminal it is possible to work around problems with Fusion drives and Boot Camp.
    My solution was to start Boot Camp Assistant and select the third option on the first screen to remove the Boot Camp partition. Well at least that worked!!! So I'm back to ground zero!
    For now I think I'll just surrender and wait for Apple to figure out how somebody, who doesn't want to dig deep into the bowels of Fusion drives via Terminal, can install Win 8.1 on a 3TB Fusion drive (or any Fusion Drive?).

    Thanks Loner T for your response. I don't have any third party NFTS software. At this point I don't think it is worth the effort to attempt to do anything complicated.
    I did take some screen grabs and photos as I went through the install for the fourth or fifth time.
    1) Disk Utility before start:
    2) Create the Windows partition:
    3) Initial Windows partitions:
    4) Windows message on why can't install
    5) Hit the "Format" button, and get this confirmation:
    6) Results in partition name getting wiped, and still no active "Next" button:
    7) Still can't install Windows, hit "Show Details" and get this error message.
    8) Another attempt to "Format" results in the same problem. Still can't install. Boot back into Yosemite. Here's what Disk Utility now shows -- an "untitled" NTFS volume:
    Here's the finder window showing the "untitled" volume:
    The NTFS partition is there, but the Win 8.1 installer can't use it. Yes, it makes no sense, but that's what is going on!
    Here's info from Terminal on CS I see used here if it helps any:

    Unless you see a simple solution, it's not worth the hassle at this point for me.
    Thanks for your interest.

  • 3TB Fusion and Bootcamp?

    Hi,
    I noticed this on the Fusion support page:
    Note: Boot Camp Assistant is not supported at this time on 3TB hard drive configurations.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5446
    I spend most of my time in Windows as opposed to Mac O/S.  Can I use the bootcamp to atleast run a 2TB partition on the 3TB Fusion drive or it totally wont work?
    If I decide to go for the 1 TB Fusion drive instead does the 128gb SSD "cache" work under windows 7 and 8?  Basically is this hardware or software based.  My main cimplaint with the current non-SSD IMAC is that the HD is very slow and so wnated something faster when I upgraded.
    Finally, could I just install Windows 7/8 natively on the hardware?  Seems this would be the better solution than any kind of emulation.
    Thanks in advance

    No you Cannot natively just install Windows on a Mac.  It will not run.  You have to have OS X installed first and then run Windows through Bootcamp or a virtualization app like Parallels.
    Hope this helps
