Does anybody knows how to install Windows 7 from a USB drive on 2010 MacBook Air running Lion?

Tell my wife that!
This is the best I can do. This way you can use the 2011 MBA way to do things.
Look for the post from @jacktourist. (on page 2 about half way down) This seems to be the easiest.
There are a couple of more similar to this with pictures I've seen around but can't remember where.
Here's another search with added info. It's easier then it sounds.

    I need to use Flash and illustratore, but apparently those programmes are incompatible with the new operative sistem...

(see FCP X)..
    good luck with apple dude..
    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
    <The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
    Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

  • Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

    Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

    Are you talking about adobe creative cloud? 
    If you are, the Adobe Creative Cloud give you most of Adobe's tools (and all that most would need) to do anything.  I will warn you about this though, is that it is a subscription, and you are basically renting it.  that means you really do not own it.
    About the hard disk space, all Adobe apps seem to take up at least a GB (and this does not matter if you get the master collection or the Creative Cloud).  so ether way, it will take some space. 
    Also, if you want to try-before-you-buy, you can go to creative.adobe.com, and get a free account and try out all of he adobe apps available for creative cloud.  The best part of it, your apps will be updated to CS7 (if or when it comes out) instead of buying the apps again in your subscriptions.  if you need even more information, you can go to adobe's site to find out more (www.adobe.com)

  • Does anybody know how to pass images from DVT framework 2.6.1 to LabVIEW 7.0?

    I have a DVT camera running inspections and a Laptop running Framework 2.6.1, I have the ActiveX Controls version 1.2.2 and I can communicate with Visual Basic 6.0 but not with LabVIEW 7.0. I am using an Automation Refnum pointing to the DVT SID and invoking the methods to connect, display images and disconnect, but out of the Automation Refnum, I am getting a 0 value which is genarating an error 97 in LabVIEW. The question is, Does somebody knows how to do it right?, or if there are known issues that will not allow it?
    Thanks in advance ...

  • Does anyone know how to install Windows 8 on a late 2008 Macbook Pro without a previous copy of Windows 7?

    So, I'm trying to do a direct install of Windows 8 on my old Macbook Pro, but my machine isn't officially supported for Windows 8; I get an error message every time I try to use boot camp. I previously had Windows 8 running, but that was because I had upgraded it from Windows 7. Later on I ran into problems because I couldn't update to Windows 8.1 so I ended up deciding to just erase the partition and start over. Since then, unfortunately, I've lost the Windows 7 install disc I used and now it turns out Boot Camp won't help me do the install. Is there a way of manually installing Windows 8? Without the help of Boot Camp? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

  • Does anybody know how to install Snow Leopard on an external HD with Lion?

    My MacBook Pro came from apple with Lion OS X 10.7.1 installed and it doesn't operate with Pro Tools LE 8.0.5 (or any other version for that matter and PT 9.0.5 is only in beta) So, I'm looking to partition Snow Leopard OS X 10.6 to my external HD so I can bypass the issue without compromising and downgrading my MacBook Pro (which I've been told is not possible anyway but I'm sure there is a way) and having to A) Pay out more money to avid and get PT 9 ( BETA) or B) Run a different DAW (Also costing more $$$) Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!!

    Yes it's possible, you need another Firewire capable Mac#2 that can hold c boot off the 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Retail Disks and a Firewire cable and if necessary a FW 800 to 400 adapter.
    First you boot into Lion on Mac#1 and use Disk Utility to Erase Free Space, this will take a few hours.
    Then backup your data off the Mac#1 Lion partition to a external drive and disconnect. (for safety sake)
    Then you create a second partition on the drive in Disk Utility, formatted OS X Extended (Journaled) under the Partition Tab.
    While that is all going on, on the other Mac#2 that can boot off 10.6.3 disks, you do the same thing,
    First you boot into Snow or Lion on Mac#2 and use Disk Utility to Erase Free Space, this will take a few hours.
    Then backup the data off the Mac#2 main boot partition to a external drive and disconnect. (for safety sake)
    Then you create a second partition on the drive in Disk Utility, formatted OS X Extended (Journaled) under the Partition Tab.
    Hold c and boot Mac#2 off the 10.6.3 Retail Snow Leopard Disk (won't work with grey disks unless it matches the target machine model) and install onto the new partition on Mac#2, reboot holding option key and select the 10.6.3 partition, once in, use the Combo Update to get to 10.6.8. (must do)
    Reboot holding T this Lion Mac#1 so it's in Target Disk Mode, connect the Firewire cable to the other Mac#2, then hold option key and reboot into the second partition on Mac#2. Download and use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the new partition of Mac#2 to new partition of Mac#1
    Reboot Mac#1 holding option key  to boot into Snow partition on the factory Lion Mac#1.
    If that doesn't work, you need to combine the 10.6.3 and the 10.6.8 Combo Update together in this process at the link below, and apply the 10.6.3 + 10.6.8 combined image in the same Target Disk mode fashion
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3264421?start=0&tstart=0
    Another method is if you can convince Apple to send you the 10.6.6 install disks for your machine, then use the Target Disk Mode approach to circumvent the firmware which is preventing you from booting off install disks from any previous version of OS X.
    For example, my new 2011 MBP came with 10.6.6 grey install disks, but can't boot off the 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Retail Disks.
    Another method would be to find another same exact machine as yours, came with 10.6.6 from the factory (even if upgraded to Lion it should still boot 10.6.6), thus will boot off the 10.6.6 install disks and install it onto your parttion.
    Needless to say, after going through all this, you really need to make a clone of the partition once it's successfully installed.
    Set the startup disk in system preferences to Snow.

  • How do i connect an external usb webcam to my macbook air running OSX Yosemite

    i have purchased a bird box with an external USB spy cam. My macbook isn't recognising it. i have downloaded VCR software as recommended by the manufacturer, but it doesnt matter if i open that software or photo booth it only gives the option of the facetime camera.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can install Windows from a USB drive in one of these computers:
    - MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    - Mac mini (Mid 2010 and newer).
    - MacBook Air.
    - iMac (Late 2012).
    If you don't have any of these Macs, you can't install Windows through a USB drive. Instead, buy Windows on a DVD. Follow Apple's steps > http://support.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1519/en_US/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup_10.6. pdf
