Can no longer use CD/DVD for installing drivers with bootcamp?

So I was about to use bootcamp to install Windows 7 yesterday, but then I saw that I needed either a CD/DVD or a USB drive for the support software (already have a dvd with Windows 7). Instead I updated the OS and then planned to try again today after returning home with a blank CD. But now there is nothing in the description that says I can use a CD, only stuff about USB drives. I tried going through the process anyway, with a blank cd inserted, but I got a popup telling me to insert a USB drive. Am I going crazy or was this previously an option that has now been removed with the last update? I have found images online that mention CDs/DVDs, but the attached screenshot clearly does not mention it. If its of any relevance, I am on a Retina Macbook Pro, using an external dvd drive. Also I actually don't own a flash drive, and although they're pretty cheap these days it seems silly to have to buy one just for this.

Just download the Bootcamp drivers separately and then load them once you've installed Windows on the system.  It's really the same steps, just when you do it yourself, it's not part of this wizard.

  • I can no longer use the driver for my PSC 1600 Series as of two days ago.  The message tells me that the software is not available to update! Has anyone else encountered this.  I have OS 10.73 and a MacBookPro

    As of two days ago, the ability to print from my MacBookPro to the PSC 1600 Series vanished, indicating they do not have new software ready.  I have tried HP and Apple but have not received any help.  Can anyone help me to find whatever software that was either lost or not updated.  My iMac did have an HP update.

  • Since updating can no longer use copy/paste for copying internet material into my Word documents

    There was a recent update on Fox which I automatically downloaded. Now when I attempt to copy select material or articles I find online the usual copy/paste functions no longer work when I try to copy into already established or new Word documents

    I have the same problem.
    All of a sudden, I can't drag or cut&paste anything from the Character Viewer into my word documents.
    I think it changed when I upgraded to Mavericks.
    I get the circle with the line through it when I try.
    I hope that someone reads this and has pity!
    thanks

  • I can no longer use my phone for calling or texting. Help please?

    Every time I send a text, a message pops up immediately saying; "Error". It also pops up instantly whenever I press retry. Another issue is when I try to call from the phone, it says; "Emergecy Calls Only". I know it's nothing to do with credit because I've tried calling the free Orange numbers (450, 453 etc.) and it still says the same thing. Any help would be appreciated.

    This normally happens if your sim card or mobile is faulty or if there is an issue with the signal where you are.
    have you tried turning the phone off, removing the battery and sim card, give the contacts a quick wipe with a lint free cloth and try again.
    You could also try live chat, or an experienced member of the team will be around at some stage and my have another answer for you

  • WHY---------???? WHY can't I use my bluetooth for voice commands with the driods?

    I purchased a droid1 and found out very quickly that my bluetooth COULD NOT BE USED WITH THE DROID OR VOICE COMMANDS-----IT IS NOT A HANDS FREE DEVICE!! I paired my bluetoot with the droid and expected to make calls as I did with my OLDER phone but NOPE-----IT WILL NOT WORK-------YOU HAVE TO "TOUCH" THE DROID TO MAKE A CALL BEFORE YOU CAN TALK VIA BLUETOOTH! WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING? A basic function (AND LEGAL) like voice command calling wasn't put into these driods? PLeaase..........what--why-----how-----could they overlook such a basic and legal requirement (MOST STATS REQUIRE HANDS FREE OPERATION)..............I'm baffled and extremely disappointed because I can not use any of these 'smartphones'=droids.
    Be very careful before you buy one without being informed of this flaw--------the DROIDS are not HANDS FREE DEVICES--------sadly.

    I had the same shock when purchasing 2 new Droids less than a month ago. The store rep emphatically told me that Bluetooth dialing worked but of course that was wrong. The Froyo 2.2 version corrects that -- if you haven't received an update notice from Verizon you can get it here: http://www.droid-life.com/2010/08/03/manual-android-2-2-update-for-motorola-droid/  and do it yourself. it's pretty simple.

  • TS4085 After updating my iPhone 4s and my iPad 2 to iOS 5.1 I can no longer use the mirroring or AirPlay features with my Apple TV.  Before the update it worked fine on all devices.  After the update the AirPlay or mirroring icon no longer shows up.

    I went through all the troubleshooting steps and it still does not work.  Checked wifi, home sharing , Internet connection, etc... Anyone have a solution?

    Is your Apple TV "awake"?  Sometimes the AirPlay icon won't show for me if the Apple TV is sleeping - pressing a key on the Apple remote ususally resolves it.

  • I own photoshop cs5 extended but now have win8.  can i upgrade to cc at reduced price to cc or do i need to purchase it at full price? I don't need cloud but will use the pc for install.

    There is no such thing as a "pay once, use forever CC". It's strictly a subscription model that you can use as long as you pay for it. Your CS5 will give you a discount for the first year.

  • Months of frustration - can no longer use my Droid Razr M for calls at home

    I'm hoping that a Verizon customer support person will see this and contact me. As detailed below, because of cell reception issues in my neighborhood and especially at my house, I can no longer use my phone to make or receive calls in this area. I have been patient while working with customer support for several months, but my patience is at an end. If I can't get an immediate fix for this problem, then I request that the early termination fee waived.
    I've attempted to work with Verizon customer support for the last many months regarding poor cell reception in my area of Durham, especially at home. I get excellent reception elsewhere. During calls, people frequently have problems hearing me (I'm tired of having to repeat myself so often) and calls are frequently dropped. There have been a few instances when a single conversation will be conducted over three or four separate calls because of drops. Walking around my house -- even trying to walk outside in hopes of getting a better signal -- makes the problem worse.
    Here's the kicker: I've found a temporary solution in using a $10 Tracfone that gives me great reception. I've relied upon it for most calls at home over the last 6 weeks or so.
    Since October, following different phone or web conversations with Verizon support and visits to local Verizon stores , I've had the Preferred Network Mode reset to LTE then later reset back to Global (neither change made a difference)  I've replaced the SIM card (made no difference), I've rec'd a replacement phone (no difference). During the visit to the Verizon store about a half mile from my house to get a new SIM card, one of the sales associates warned that I wouldn't be able to determine right away whether it made a difference since reception in the neighborhood was so bad.
    I most recently contacted customer support on Feb 8, I spoke with someone who reviewed the record of my calls and could see several drops. He encouraged me to use my Razr at home more often so that Verizon could have as much data as possible to troubleshoot the issue and asked that I call back in a week or two. .
    So I've been using the Razr more often but to great frustration. I've had business calls drop several times back on Feb 12 & 13, and multiple drops again on Feb 25. Other calls did not drop but people would often interrupt me to say that I was breaking up or fading out, so I'd have to move around my house or go outside or come back inside until they could hear me more clearly again.
    What makes this worse is I've had no luck getting back in touch with customer service the several times I've tried over the last 4 or 5 days. I've tried calling several times but end up hanging up after being on hold for several minutes and I've tried the Live Chat but always get the "all agents are busy" message. Have tried mornings mid day, evenings, but it makes no difference.
    So if I can't get an immediate fix for this problem, I would request that the early termination fee (I'm just shy of 13 months into a 2-year contract) be waived in light of the frustrations and the long period over which I've tried to work with Verizon to find a solution but without success.

    I'm adding screen shots taken from this afternoon showing connection that varied from non-existent to 1X.

  • Difficulty scanning slides on my Epson V600  running Lion, Adobe Photoshop CS6,  and can no longer use the Epson scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?

    I am running Lion 10.7.5, Adobe Photoshop CS6, scanning slides on my Epson V600 and can no longer use the scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?
    In 10.7 there is not a twain that works with Photoshop for importing with all the options needed to scan transparencies. I noticed that when I was scanning in October 2012 I was still using CS6 so somehow I was managing to be able to use all the scan features.
    They sell 2nd party software (VieScan and Silverscript)which I found to be just mimially OK and very hard to use.
    I just want to scan like I used to.
    Can I use time machine to go back to an earlier operating sysytem LEOPARD,  and then do my scans and then save the photos and them go back to the LION system?
    I spent 7 hours trying crazy solutions - downloading Windows CS2 Photoshop and then using a program so I could run it on the apple. Then I couldn't figure out how to put a plug in for the scanner in the stupid windows Photoshop program. Googgling the computer like a mad woman trying to ask questions. I am not giving up...
    Please help if you can...
    Thanks...

    I assume you've tried using Image Capture. Give VueScan a try.

  • I can no longer use Photoshop for UI Design (PS CC + Retina display)

    Since I bought the new MacBook Pro with retina display, Photoshop can no longer be an option for user interface design.
    I'm runningn the last Photoshop CC update, and each file opens at 50% size compared to other standard displays, which makes working with old files frustrating. Besides, creating a new 1200 wide document to start a web design makes no sense (too small).
    - View > 200% isn't a solution, things look pixelated.
    - To increase the resolution from 72ppi to 220 (retina display) isn't a solution, it doesn't affect the document size
    - Working with a document with 2x size can't be a solution: I should create everything with a 2x size (stroke, shadows, even rounded corners), which would push PS even more far away from being a tool that can be used for UI design.
    Should we just expect that PS on a high-res display behave like that? I don't think so. Besides, the guys of Sketch App (a tool for UI design, that I'm currently working with) found a solution - the retina canvas option:
    You can choose to see bitmap images pixelated, but still the vectors will look exactly like on the browser. By choosing to see the document at the same size but with more details, retina users can enjoy the power of the new MacBook while working on UI design.
    Am I missing something? Should we expect this option in Photoshop too?

    It upsets me to see that this was initially posted almost a year ago and there was no answer. There also seems to be no answer to various other questions about the same issue. Adobe do you care? I am already guessing that Apple doesn't. I know that Adobe has been at the top of this industry. Time for someone else to compete? This is a highly frustrating issue for UI and web designers.

  • Why can I no longer use an image for my signature on forms?  The only option I have now is "use a certificate".  It was never like this until today.

    Hi,
    I had never heard of someone using the iPhone Number as the ID in the iMessages account in the Mac version.
    i.e without adding an Apple ID
    iMessages does allow iPhone numbers and mine lists mine.
    I would try this.
    Sign Out of the iMessages account and Quit Messages
    On the iPhone in Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID
    Set the iPhone to Airplane mode for a few minutes (to break with the  Server)
    On starting the phone up again check the iPhone Number  is ticked for iMessages.
    If it is add the Apple ID
    On the Mac restart Messages
    Add the Apple ID
    At this point you should get a pop up or two saying the iPhone is using the Number and Apple ID.
    Accept these and they get added to the Receive At list and Send From drop down.

    I have LR5 student on my iMac but need it on my laptop, when I try to install it wont accept the serial number I was given last Feb.  Does this mean I can no longer use/install this product?

    No, you should be able to use/install LR5.  Make sure you are using the correct number.  If the problem continues explain the details of what you do and what happens.
    You should try contacting Adobe Support thru chat and see if they can resolve this with you.  or the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...
