Can apple install windows 7 on my macbook air?

If i am going to buy a macbook air, and i buy it, then can i give it to a person in apple like a genius so he can install windows 7 for me for me?
obviously i give to him the necessary things to install it if its required. So can apple do that?
If they can tell me if i have to pay extra money or what. Thank you...

  • Can I install windows 8 in my MacBook Air?

    Hello,

  • How can I install Windows 7 on my Macbook air

    I recent purchased a Macbook air mid-2011 and I want to install a copy of Windows 7 by Boot Camp. But I did not know why I cannot reboot the Windows after the distribution completed (I had a Sumsung mobile DVD-ROM which works well when I use it to install apps). With my old Macbook 2010, of course, which had a DVD-ROM inside, it will automatically reboot into Windows installation . According to the Boot Camp, the 1st step is to make a ISO-image of Windows 7. However, I did not know how to do it. Please help me.
    Thanks!

    As this is not a Macbook Air specific question, and is entirely a Bootcamp usage query, the best place to post this is in the BootCamp forum of this community.

  • How can i install windows games in my macbook pro

    I m a game lover but since i've macbook pro,i haven't played any game on my macbook...so guys please tell me how can i install windows games to my macbook pro.

    As eww said, that computer isn't specifically made for gaming. To get advanced graphics in a game, your computer needs what is called a "discrete" graphics processor, or GPU. This means a seperate chip that processes graphics. In Apple laptops, these are only found in the 15" and 17" MacBook Pro. It is not common to find these in laptops in general that are not expensive and high-end. What you have in yours is an "on-board" or "integrated" GPU. This means that graphics processing is done by a small portion of your main processor (the Intel i5 board). This takes away a portion of primary prossessing and dedicates it to graphics. This works perfectly find in most scenarios, but video rendering, gaming, and 3-D graphics tend to suffer. Most high-end, modern games require discrete GPUs to run at full quality these days.
    As far as running Windows 7 and Mac OS both, yes you absolutely can. If you install Windows 7 via Bootcamp (this would require you to have a Windows 7 CD), when you turn on your computer it will default to opening up in Mac OS. But if you hold down the Option key (bottom of the keyboard next to the Command button) while the computer is booting up, it will ask you if you want to open Windows or Mac OS.

    can i install windows 7 for 13" macbook pro ? I got that in august 2012.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can install Windows 7 on your computer without any problem. First, determine if you need Boot Camp or a virtual machine > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3321
    If you need Boot Camp, get a Windows 7 retail DVD, open Boot Camp Assistant and follow the steps to install Windows. If you want all the steps to install it, you can print this PDF file > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf. Windows 8 support will come with a OS X update.
    If you need a virtual machine, you can use Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox. All of them are paid except VirtualBox, and they work well with Windows

  • I am trying to install windows 8 at my macbook air boot camp

    I am trying to install windows 8 at my macbook air boot camp but Boot Camp Assistant i showing an error that the disk cannot be portioned because some files cannot be moved. Back up the disc and use disk utility to format it was a single Mac OS Extended (journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant Again.
    I had already installed teh first time Windows on my MacBook Air and Mac Book Pro. Actually I had more issues to install on the pro than Air.
    But my Macbook Air had an issue on November 2013, 3 weeks after buying it and Apple gave me a new MacBook Air but they only transferred the information on my mac and the windows partion was lost according to them, they could copy it in to my new MacBook Air. Now that I am trying to install my windows I can not access to the aprtion section and get the error message from above.
    What can I do to to install it? I am using a 32GB USB and OEM Windows 8 at USB External Drive. The same I used before. I dont know understand what changed if I did it before?
    Please advise..

    I think there's some remmants left over from when Apple transferred stuff over. We can try a quick fix, but if that doesn't work, I think the only option is to clean install OSX and then install Windows.
    open disk utility, confirm that you only have 1 partition (mac journaled)
    restart and PRAM reset
    open disk utility and repair permissions twice
    restart boot camp assistant
    Does it work?
    If not, I would boot holding command+R, choose disk utility from the menu and completely erase your HD (formatting it as mac journaled again). Then, install OSX on this HD. Once OSX is installed, don't copy your files over from the backup yet. Instead, start boot camp assistant and see if you can get Windows installed. You can copy back your other files after we get Windows installed.

  • HT5628 why cant i install windows 8 on a macbook air 13-inch, Late 2010?

    why cant i install windows 8 on a macbook air 13-inch, Late 2010?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can install Windows 8 on your computer because it can run Windows 8, but you can't install the Windows support software that makes Windows run properly, so probably things like the Wi-Fi card, the sound and the graphic card may not work without these drivers.
    That's just an Apple restriction. Apple has decided to give Windows 8 support to the most recent Macs, leaving old Macs with Windows 7. Unfortunately, to run Windows 8 properly, the only option is to install it on a virtual machine. Apart from that, if you want to install Windows 7 with Boot Camp, you can do it

    How can I install my CS5 onto my MacBook Air? I have my serial number, but I can't find anywhere to download the program on the Adobe site. The physical CDs are useless w/MacBook Air.
    Thanks!
    Emily

    The physical disks are OK with MacBook Air if you buy a cheap external DVD drive and connect via USB. That's how I install DVD software on my MacBook Air.
    That said, you can download the software from http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    Follow the Very Important Instructions on that page first otherwise the links won't work.

  • Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air. In bootcamp i allocate the partition then i click install and bootcamp will not see the disk.

    Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (on my MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air via remote disk. In bootcamp (on my air) i allocate the partition, then i click install, and bootcamp will not see the disk from my macbook pro's drive. How do i get the bootcamp assistant running on my MB air to automatically find the disk in my macbook pro with the ISO image of windows 7? The remote disk on my air can find the cd but bootcamp will not begin installing it. Anyway to do this without buying the damned usb drive?

    I don't know first hand if you can use the Remote Disk option with Windows but as of 10.7.2 you can now use BCAssistant to make a bootable USB (thumb drive or external disk) W7 installer with the Boot Camp drivers installed also. Have you tried that yet?

  • Can't install Windows 7 on my Macbook pro.

    Hi, I've been trying to install Windows 7 on my Macbook pro, with no luck. I have been able to create a Windows Partition via Bootcamp. And after the Windows 7 installation guide started to expand my Windows files, my Windows 7 CD suddenly stopped spinning. And after a while, the installation guide said that Windows couldn't be installed. And I had to turn off my Mac.

  • HT1338 Can I install Windows 2000 onto my macbook pro

    Can I install Windows 2000 or newer on my Macbook Pro. OS x 10.8.5??

    Boot Camp supports Windows 7 and 8. There are no hardware drivers for older versions.

  • Can I install Windows 2000 onto my macbook pro

    Can I install Windows 2000 or newer on my Macbook Pro. OS x 10.8.5??

    Boot Camp does not support Windows 2000 - it might work sort off, might not perform well if at all.
    You can run Windows 2000 in a virtual machine using something like Parallels for Mac, or VMware Fusion.
    To install Windows 2000 in a virtual machine you will need the original Windows 2000 Install Media with a useable Product Key.
