Bootcamp Not in Utilities Leopard Macbook Pro

So I've been looking around for an answer to this, finally gave up and decided to post here.
My Macbook Pro running SL (10.6.4) does not have bootcamp assistant under utilities. I still have the installation CD for leopard that came with the laptop, but I can't find BA in finder with the disc inserted by doing the /volumes/mac osx thing, and I don't want to install leopard again....because that would be redundant and stupid. My macbook has an intel core i5 processor.
Help?
Thanks

Hi,
is this http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1889 what you already have tried ?
If so, the maybe using Pacifist http://www.charlessoft.com/ can do the trick.
(the trial version is sufficient...).
Hope it helps

Bootcamp not Working Correctly on Macbook Pro

Hello,
I am trying to install Windows 7 or 8 onto my Macbook Pro with Bootcamp.
Once I have opened the Bootcamp program it all works fine and I can go through the steps perfectly, it will appear to partition the HDD correctly and it will recognise the Windows install DVD correctly.
However, once my Macbook Pro restarts at the end of the process it boots up and the screen stays white, nothing happens and since I have a gaming keyboard and mouse the lights light up on it for about 5 seconds when it restarts then they go off (Off meaning they aren't powered). The screen will stay white for aslong as I can tell, I left it for 3 hours and the screen was still white.
So I thought there may be a problem with how it selects the the startup disk, so I boot it up into disk utility then select the DVD again and it stays white, again.
Anyone know why this is not working correctly? I have tired this with mutliple install DVD's whether they be Windows 8 or Windows 7. I also do not want to use a program that creates a virtual machine, I would like to run Windows 7 to the full so that I can play games with the maximum amount of FPS.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to let me know.
Thank you for your time.
Best Regards,
Kieran J.

Does it now work only on battery? or using the power supply?
If only on the power supply use a grounded plug.
Otherwise try reseating touchpad cable. Post the size and year of your MBP.

I have recently updated my OS from Leopard to Snow Leopard but now my external hard drive and even my iPhone are not recognized by my Macbook Pro! Anyone have a suggestion??

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again. If the problem remains, update to 10.6.8 and repeat.

My WD 2tb external hard drive will not unmount from my MacBook Pro.

My WD 2tb external hard drive will not unmount from my MacBook Pro. It no longer even shows up in finder, however it does show up in Disk Utility. I have tired so many of the suggestions on the internet all to a fail.
I keep getting the message to be sure that all applications are closed before ejecting the drive. I have no clue how to tell which appliactions are using the external drive to shut them off. I turned off Time Machiene to be safe.
I don't need anything on the external drive, I am just trying to erase it, save my current info, and migrate it to my new MacBook Pro.
I have been about four days now with this issue all over the internet, in this community, and watching videos on everything and nothing about this topic to a fail.
I think I am doomed and have lossed this external drive because of some wierd application that will NEVER close on my hard drive for it to disconnect correctly. It's annoying.
Does anyone have a solution?

Have you trie using another USB port? Can you test the USB ports with other USB devices to assure they are working? You may want to reinstall OS X in case there has been a driver glitch.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226). I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work) - HELP!!

My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow).
In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work.
I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
Here is the kicker! In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
thanks and regards

I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.

My iSight is not working on my Macbook Pro. What are the possible problems and solutions?

My iSight is not working on my Macbook Pro. What are the possible problems and solutions?

Hello Douglas,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the built-in iSight camera on your MacBook Pro. I recommend the following steps for this issue:
Important: Follow these instructions in order. Test the camera between steps to see if the issue is resolved.
Built-in iSight cameras
These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
See if the issue is application-specific.
Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
See if the issue is user-specific.
Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
Reset SMC or PMU
Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

Time capsule not accessible to my MacBook Pro.

Hello.
My time capsule is not accessible to my MacBook Pro.
I have tried restarting the time capsule, checked it's connexions & pushing a pin in the back to re-set it. The light on the front is flashing orange.
Unsure of my next step.
Thank you for any assistance.

Plug the TC into the MBP by ethernet.
Press and hold the reset until the TC flashes rapidly and redo the setup.
This time use short names, no spaces, pure alphanumeric for everything.. give a different name to 5ghz as well.
So for example
TC name. TC
TC 2.4ghz TC24ghz
TC 5ghz TC5ghz
Hard disk name.. TCdata
Fix the wireless at 2.4ghz to one of the available channels.. 1, 6, 11 (13 in UK).
You can try each in turn.
Set WPA2 Personal security with passkey.. 8-12 characters.. pure alphanumeric.
Then you can plug the TC back into the network.. I presume you are using the TC in bridge mode.
If you continue having issues. tell us what OS the computer is running.
This is not at all unusual on Mountain Lion.. and fairly normal even on Lion.
You have stated Snow Leopard in the profile.. but it seldom has this much difficulty with the TC.

My Note app on my MacBook Pro crashes every time I start it.. Anybody knows why ?

Every time I click on my Note application on my MacBook Pro, the app crashes ... An error page openes. When I click to restart it, it crashes again. After a couple of times, it starts up.
Anybody as an idea why it crashes that much and have a way to repair it ?
thanks a lot !

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Facebook and Hotmail will not work on my Macbook pro

Facebook and Hotmail will not work on my Macbook pro. I have tried safari and firefox. I have unloaded and reloaded an old version of firefox and still no luck. When go to ebay it opens but looks very weird. I am using Mac OS X Version 10.6.6 with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. I am so frustrated, I have tried everything I can think of and still no luck.

Good of you to offer the detail you did (a lot of people don't bother) but it still is not quite enough. Texting that it "looks very weird" just leaves me blank. Most basic remedy for browser issues is to use Safari to google "adobe flash" and download a fresh file & install. Can't think of anything else given what you've posted....
