Cant find Boot camp on OS X.

I just ran a spotlight earch for Boot Camp and the only thing it returned was 'BootCamp64.xml'.
I have looked in my utilities folder and it is not there.
Some people have said to insert the install disc and run this code - Volumes/Mac OS X Install Disc 1/System/Installation/Packages. when i run that search it should show a bootcamp package but OS X wont even find that file path.
Can any one help me with this??

1) Recover the Boot Camp Assistant from a Time Machine backup, or other backup you have.
2) Copy the app from another Mac running Mavericks (do not use an older version)
3) If your Mac did not come preinstalled with Mavericks, you can extract it from the Mavericks installer downloaded from the App Store, assuming you saved the installer to another drive.
If you have none of those options available, then a reinstall is the only way to get it back.
Or, to shorten the procedure a bit, and number three applies to you, download the Mavericks installer again and press Command+Q to stop the installation as soon as it starts. The installer will stay in the Applications folder. You can then back it up to an external drive and remove the original in the Applications folder afterwards. Extract the Boot Camp Assistant from the installer.

You need to upgrade to Leopard (10.5) in order to use BootCamp.

Hi,
Agree with Ed. A checked build Windows is used for debug. Before installing Exchange 2013, please make sure that you use a free build. I'm afraid that you need to reinstall the OS.
What's more, you can refer the following screenshot to determine which Windows build is running. Generally, it should be Free build.
Hope it helps.
Best regards,

You would be more likely to get a response if your question was asked in the Bootcamp forum.

Can't find Boot Camp

Hi everyone!
I bought my MacBook in November and, until now, have had no occasion to use Boot Camp.
I went to search for it today and cannot find it anywhere on my MacBook and do now know where to find it either on my hard drive, MacOSX CD, or online for download.
How do I get BootCamp? Wasn't it supposed to be included on my new MacBook??
Thanks!

Hi,
I had the same trouble when boot-camping a friend's macbook. couldn't find it on any of the disks, but but it is actually there. what you must do is insert the OS X install disk 1, and then go to this web page : http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/33420 ,download the little helper program, install it, and bob's your uncle... it will find BootCamp on your install disk and install it. Bootcamp can then be found in your Applications/Utilities folder
hope it works for you as it did for me!

Can't find boot camp 3.1 dmg

I'm having a lot of problems installing windows 7 on my mac. I've got the boot camp but it says I need to get boot camp 3.1. Right now I have some 2 version. I've looked all around and I can only find book camp 3.1 exe - what good is an exe file on a mac? I installed windows 7 but it restarted and said push any key to continue, I did that and nothing happened.

Not. IF you upgrade from Vista there is an error for ANY computer, PCs as well:
Boot Camp: "0x80070005" appears when upgrading from Vista to Windows 7
That is what that link refers to which is an additional problem that happens 70-80% into the install.
And at the bottom it refers back to the "black screen issue":
Additional Information
When installing Windows 7 on an iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) using Boot Camp, a black screen may appear. This can happen because the Windows 7 installer does not include the necessary graphics or Bluetooth drivers for your Mac. See iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) displays a black screen during installation of Windows 7 using Boot Camp for more information.
There is a problem as well for clean custom install too.
This can happen because the Windows 7 installer does not include the necessary graphics or Bluetooth drivers for your Mac.

Can't find Boot Camp Setup Assistant, PowerBook G4

I have upgraded to Leopard 10.5.1 via the installation disc and then downloaded and installed the combo upgrade 10.5.4. However, I can't find the Boot Camp Setup Assistant in the Applications Folder.
Is the Boot Camp Setup Assistant automatically installed from the installation disc or does it need to be loaded from "optional installs" on the installation disc?

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
if your signature is still correct (Powerbook !) than you can't find the BootCamp Assistant on it.
The BCA is only installed (and useable) on Intel-Macs, not on PPC-Macs like your Powerbook.
Sorry

Can't find Boot Camp on updated MacBook

Hi all,
I bought a new black MacBook today - the updated model. Either I'm crazy or Boot Camp is not installed. It's not in the Utilities folder, Spotlight can't find it, and it's nowhere to be found on Apple's website.
I looked on the CDs to see if I could install it separately, but it's not listed as a bundled app, and I don't want to launch the MacOS X restore app on a new computer.
Could someone please check their system and confirm if it's there or not?
Thanks.

Here are the results.
I copied Boot Camp 2.0 from my retail install of Leopard that was in the Utilities folder.
It ran fine on the new Macbook
2.0 does not create a CD, like the 1.4 beta Boot Camp did.
The Windows drivers ARE on the Macbook Disk 1 CD.
It's a good idea to read the Boot Camp instructions
The Windows partition has to be formatted from the XP install CD.
To eject the XP CD before the Boot Camp drivers are installed, plug in a USB mouse or
1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
a Go to My Computer.
b Select the optical drive (D:).
c Click “Eject this disk” in the System Tasks list.
In XP's Device Manager, there were no devices without drivers (no red or yellow circles).
All seems well (so far)

Windows not finding Boot Camp on MacBook Pro

Hey everyone. I have Windows 7 64-bit and a MacBook Pro (mid 2010) with OS X Lion installed. When I boot up in Windows, it seems that only half of the time Windows realizes that it is on a Mac. Meaning...only half of the time the Boot Camp program is running in the notification tray, and only half of the time will Windows register the volume up/down, brightness up/down, and keyboard backlight up/down buttons on the Mac. It makes it very difficult to say...adjust the brightness or volume in the middle of a game. I can still go out of the game and turn up the volume in the notification area, but it is becoming a huge hassle. Like I said, this is only happening about half of the time. The other half of the time Windows registers that Boot Camp is on it, there is the Boot Camp icon in the bottom right corner of Windows, and all of my control buttons (brightness, volume, etc.) work just fine. Any ideas on how to make this happen every time? Thanks.

It is difficult to understand your issue from your discription. I have three suggestions.
1. Visit the Boot Camp forum. You posted in the Mac Book Pro forum about your Boot Camp issue. The Boot Camp gurus hang out in the Boot Camp form. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp
2. Read the Boot Camp installation guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf
3. Do not post personal information such as phone numbers in public forums.

Upgraded to ATI 4870 on Mac Pro and cant enter Boot Camp

Hi!
I have just received the ATI Radeon 4870 for my Mac Pro (Early 2008)and have upgraded my Leopard to 10.5.7 and works fine on the Mac side. When I reboot and hold the command key I can see my MAC and my BOOT CAMP 2 options as always before. When I click on boot camp I get a white screen with a black frome around it and there is NO hard disk activity and nothing happens no matter how long I leave the computer alone. Before I had no problem booting into my boot camp loaded with vista 64 bit. I have another partition with parallels and that is fine but not this boot camp partition.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for all your time!

I guess you can't boot Safe Mode.
I would have uninstalled the graphics drivers first, as part of preparing to swap cards. Assume you had.... before this and the proper ATI (or Nvidia) drivers. Put back in the original card.... or are you trying to use both? Again, not clear from your comments.
You can't use ATI and Nvidia in Windows concurrently, don't know why but seems to be rule that they won't be compatible.
You have another - physical - native Windows partition? or a Parallels VM that is not using a native (Boot Camp) partition, which works.

Cant download boot camp drivers in Mountain Lion

When I'm running the Boot Camp Assistant and i try to download the windows compatibility software it says downloading but nothing happens, I have waited for a long time so i think there's an issue with de Apple server.
Please fix that as soon as possible.
Thanks

You posted in the Mountain Lion forum. You should visit the Boot Camp forum where your issue is discussed very frequently. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

Why can't I find Boot Camp 3.0 download?

Has anyone seen a download of Boot Camp 3.0? Not 2.2 or 3.1 just 3.0.
Thanks!

I keep everything in folders and on DMG. I have Windows drive with any installers and updates.
I copied the Windows Boot Camp volume to a folder (950MB I think for Boot Camp 3.0) so I would have it, and have it backed up.
Laptops I can see not having huge multiple hard drives and limited smaller drives and drive space.
No PC vendor would ever do it this way. They include a CD like Apple with any new motherboard with Windows support software.
A mac will run w/o Apple's to some extent, it isn't like you can't. Windows 7 has a wide range of hardware it supports.
You wouldn't have the Apple TimeServices to keep Mac and Windows using different time servers, the data/time are always off.... seems like something is wrong to me there.
No OS Switcher in Windows.
Trouble with internet and wireless is perhaps the hardest.
Getting video graphic device enabled, a bummer.
