Bootcamp support files on imac 27 5k late 2014

Hi there everyone,
Been trying to install windows 7 by iso file on my 5k late 2014 imac.
After hdd is rebooted and logging in to windows 7 installation screen, i was not able to continue the progress due to '' can't find the drivers'' error.
And each time i try a new solution, i have to format my usb hard drive, and bootcamp is downloading files from internet again, therefore alot of time goes by.
I would like to ask if its not possible for me to download support files manually on apple's site? I could not find any manual downloads for that.
Any help will be Appreciated.

There is no supported method of downloading drivers, unlike other models. The BC Drivers are 5.1.5766.
Build a USB with ISO/BC drivers once, by unchecking the last "Install/Remove Windows..." and re-use the same USB multiple times. Please use a USB2 device, not a USB3 device. USB3 causes problems, due to lack support built into the Windows installer for USB3 devices.

Using ADVC 55 with iMac Retina 5K Late 2014

Hi,
I was able to use my ADVC 55 capture device to capture non-digital video such as Hi-8 VHS etc. with my previous iMac which do naturally have Firewire port on the back side. Now I am using iMac Retina which is not supplied with Firewire port. However Apple does have a conversion cable from Firewire 800 to thunderbolt where you can then plug into thunderbolt ports on the back of the iMac Retina Late 2014.
Unfortunaletly, I cannot see the ADVC 55 capture interface on neither of my vide editing software such as Final Cut Pro, iMovie etc. The ADVC unit itself has the light on it that is lit always in red color, not green color that you normally have with a successful connection. I am suspicious about this conversion cable to thunderbolt that makes this incomplience. Does anybody have a suggestion that I can follow?
Many Thanks,

Hi there - wondered if you got an answer to your question as I have the exact same question.
Many thanks

Just installed OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2 - My Apple USB Keyboard now refuses to work. I'm using a iMac Retina5K 27inch Late 2014 - any suggestions?

Hi I've just installed OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2 - My Apple USB Keyboard will no longer work. Any suggestions? (iMac Retina 5K, 27inch Late 2014) Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the assist. Looks like there is a glitch in the new software, as I did as you suggested, removed other USB devices, powered off. Then plugged in the keyboard - re started and hey presto it worked. Thanks v.m.

IMac 27 5k (late 2014) fan runs low speed nonstop during sleep mode

Hi,
New to the Mac community. Had the iMac 27 5K for about a month now. I've noticed the fan in the back of the monitor runs on low the entire time it's in Sleep Mode. I need to put my ear up to the vent to hear the fan running but can definitely feel air blowing out of it even after it's been sleeping for a few hours. It runs on low throughout the night. The fan stops completely only when it's shut down. Since this is my first iMac, not sure if this is normal or not? Can anyone confirm or have the same occurrence? Thanks for your input.

UPDATE:
For anyone with the same issue with this model of iMac; the fan running on low when it's in sleep mode is NOT NORMAL. I eventually brought the computer into an Apple store. They ran diagnostics and nothing. This model being so new has not had many logged issues in their database. They were going to reinstall the OS but after I reiterated that the fan runs all throughout the night while in sleep mode they decided to exchange it for another new computer. As an aside I noticed a large spike in my electricity bill in the month I've had the iMac hence noticing the fan ran all the time while in sleep mode. Otherwise, I wouldn't have look into it as an issue. I'm pleased to say that with the new computer, when I put it into sleep mode, the fan stops. Hope this helps others who run into this problem.

Bootcamp support drivers "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running"

Hi,
I've searched everywhere I can think of for a solution to this problem with no success. I see other people have reported similar issues and these have not yet been resolved.
I have installed Windows 7 32 bit on a new Mac Mini under Bootcamp. When I go to install the Bootcamp drivers in Windows, I get the message "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running".
Other people have reported this issue when trying to install 3rd party software on a 64 bit version of windows but I'm simply trying to install the Bootcamp drivers on a 32 bit version of Windows.
Is it possible the Mac Mini needs a 64 bit version of Windows installed under Bootcamp? I haven't seen this requirement mentioned anywhere.
Appreciated all and any help that can be offered.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
That's because the Late 2012 iMac and Mac mini only supports the 64-bit Windows 7 version, so the drivers you downloaded are designed to work with the 64-bit version and you can't install them on a 32-bit version. Install the 64-bit Windows 7 on your computer

HT5639 how to install bootcamp on windows 7 64 bit on late 2006 imac

I ma trying to get Windows 2007 ultimate to install boot camp on my late 2006 24"CTO iMac. I am able to install the OS but when it come to install bootcamp it tells me that 64 bit is not supported on this machine. I need to be able to install it so all drivers get installed and the boot selector gets installed.
The machine I know is not true 64 bit and I wish it was a cheap way to make it 64 bit but I can't afford a new Mac at this time.
The specs are:
2.33 GHz Core 2 Duo
4 GB Ram
1 TB HD
256 MB Nvidia 7600GT
24" High Res Display upgrade
Thanks for the help and if it is no way then I am stuck with using the alt or option key at boot to select OXS after a reboot out of Windows 7.

Can Bootcamp Assistant cache its support files?

I'm needing to run the Bootcamp Assistant several times to get the right Windows installation working with my machine, so I keep needing Bootcamp Assistant to build a new USB bootable installer. EVERY time I do this, it insists on downloading the "Windows support software". Over a gig.
...I know which installer package I need; I've downloaded it myself. Is there any way to get Bootcamp Assistant to cache the support software download so it doesn't need to fetch it every time?

Is this the correct model? I would not recommend Vista drivers on Windows 7. You can download these in .zip format and put them on a FAT32 USB flash drive and unzip these.

Hi there,
The simplest way is to drag it across wirelessly using the 'Airdrop' application once both computers are near one another. 'Airdrop' can be found near the top, on the left hand side menu, within 'Finder'.

Click on the hard drive on the desktop, then File > Get Info. What does it say about permissions? If this is just a data drive you may want to consider "ignore ownership on this volume".
Otherwise I can only say I have not been reading good things about Seagate drives recently. I have some of their rock-solid ones from about 10 years ago (still running well), but now...?

Can i install bootcamp on the new iMac late 2012 "27"?

can i install bootcamp on the new iMac late 2012 "27" without fushion drive?

You have two possibilities:
1. Buy the USB SuperDrive and install Windows from a disc.
2. Use an USB drive with the Windows 7 installer inside.
Boot Camp isn't compatible with Windows 8, so you will have to wait. Also, the Late 2012 is only compatible with the 64-bit Windows 7 edition

Windows support files - bootcamp, drivers are not working [no sound, keyboard shortcuts]

Hi guys,
I'm using the following version of Bootcamp Version 5.0.3 (464) on MBP mid 2010, wit latest OS on it. I ave installed Windows 7 through multiple errors and had to clean the whole HD after backing the files. The Windows is running fine now, however I think I havent dowloaded Windows Support Files (second tickbox) in the bootcamp assistant when installing Windows (I only ticked the third box).
And now I have tried to download the drviers from bootcamp on USB after formating it correctly, but the USB shows its empty.
I tried the following steps:
I went back into my Mac and opened up Bootcamp, reinstalled all the Windows Support Files (the top box of Bootcamp) and made sure to put them onto an external device i.e. USB/External Hard Drive etc...
I then logged back onto my partioned Windows on my Mac and updated all the Windows Support Files. After that I restarted my computer back into Windows and popped in Guild Wars 2...
But nothing seems to be working. I went to Windows Update smth, and looked for updates found quite a few of them and isntalled all of them, but noting is working - sound and keyboard shortcuts are gone and I cant downloaed the software I want.
Could you please advice on what to do with those drivers. I have been trying for days...

Hi JFFulcrum, thanks for your suggestion. I updated the BIOS earlier and still am getting the same results. Also, I decided to try another old soundcard I had laying around today, a SB PCI 512. And....same result i'm getting with the Audigy. Windows detects both cards, says they're working, but there's no sound. I'm beginning to think I should just RMA the board
if you could find anymore information about those DMA issues, please do post! I have e-mailed gigabyte 3 days ago and they still haven't gotten back to me, so i'm not really sure where to go from here, if it's some setting in the bios, some sort of driver, a bad pci slot or what. ..

IMac bootcamp support software issue

i have a 2.8 core 2 24" imac. I installed win 7 successfully using bootcamp, however it says bootcam is not supported for my computer model while installing bootcamp support software. What should i do? By the way its x64

Make sure that you are using the right version of BootCamp - version 5 is the newest and works with Windows 7 64bit, but does not work with your computer, which is an older Intel model.
You can get version 4 of the software here:

IMac 27-inch, Late 2009 Freezes - OSX 10.9.5

Greetings everyone,
Since a few days ago (today is Sept, 25th 2014), after I have applied an update for Safari and iTunes, when I play World of Warcraft for a few minutes, a flick happens and only the mouse pointer moves on the screen. No keyboard response, nothing else.
I have to turn the machine off so I can try using it again.
I have read a lot about this kind of problem on forums and they seem to be either related to age or RAM (so experts recommend to clean memory slots and vacuum out the dust from the air holes to facilitate the cooling, but I haven't tried yet.
I did some search and could gather some information with EtreCheck that I hope will be of any use for those that could land me some help.
Before showing the info, please do not bother for the etc/hosts number. I have changed this list myself to avoid publicity on my machine before Adblocker was created :-D
