Hello i would like instal windows in my mac pro retina but i don't have boot camp

What version of OS X are you running on your MBPr?
If you open Applications > Utilities, you should see Boot Camp Assistant in that folder.
That is the utility which will create the partition into which you can install Windows that you have purchased from Microsoft.

Could be you khave a corrupted Win 7 install file/files.
Try downloading the Win 7 ISO for the version you have from here.

Then burn that ISO to a USB or DVD, USB would be better.

you cannot use your pc license to install on a mac. you would need a separate license (and serial number) for that.
adobe allows platform swaps, but only with the latest (xi) version, Order product | Platform, language swap
your option to use acrobat on a mac are to upgrade to acrobat pro xi and change platforms, use a windows emulator (parallels/boot camp etc) on your mac or swap with a third party.

Hi David,
with the creative cloud subscription you can install the application on two machine, and it does not matter whether it is a notebook or pc .
infact you can install the application on as many machine you like , but only two application can be run at the same time.

Is it possible to install windows 7 on my macbook from a removable hard drive using boot camp? How would I do this?

If you have Lion installed, and run Boot Camp, it will create the boot flash for you, just followe the tutorial on screen. As far as I remember, this was not possible prior to Lion.

BSOD when installing Windows 7 on MacBook Pro Retina

I tried everything I could but I'm unable to install Windows 7 on my MBP Retina using Boot Camp because of recurring blue screens always happening at exactly the same time.
After creating a new partition with Boot Camp and restarting to the point where the MBP is supposed to boot from the Windows 7 installation CD or USB flash drive (tried both), the black and white "Windows is loading files" passes without problems but I ALWAYS get a BSOD a few seconds after the Windows splash screen appears.
Here are some examples of the errors I get:
I tried reformatting and reinstalling Lion on my SSD several times, I even ran extensive memtest batteries but the RAM appears to be OK. I really don't know what to do anymore.
I read that Windows has issues with the HFS file system which can cause BSODs but since the error appears before I can even install Windows I cannot modify anything in the Windows installation. Then again it could be a ton of other things...

Can I install Windows on my iMac 27, 3TB Fusion Drive, late-2012 with Boot Camp 5?

Hello. When I first opened the Boot Camp Assistant app, it said it could not work with the 3TB fusion drive. With the updated version of Boot Camp, the option to install Windows appeared. I tried to install Windows 8, but the loading bar stopped moving. I waited for hours, but it still did not move. I decided to quit the app, and re-open it, in order to try again. It crashed, and would not open. So I restarted my system and when I did that I noticed that I had about 1GB or so left of storage. This shocked me, because the disk was just suddenly filled for some reason. In hopes of fixing this I used an app called 'CleanMyMac' to try and recover the disk space. And as I thought the disk space returned to normal. However when I went to Disk Utility and clicked 'repair disk' it said this...
There is only 1 partition, so the Boot Camp process did fail.
I don't know whats wrong with my system though? I would like to install Windows, but I'm worried that I might recieve errors again. I have not got Apple Care, but I'm playing on buying it soon, due to it being almost a year since I bought the system.
Maybe I did something wrong when trying to install Windows with Boot Camp? I don't know, but if possible can someone please tell me if I can install Windows and if something is wrong with my system.
Here is some additional screen shots of the type of system I have.
Thank you for your help with this issue!

Which copy or version of Windows? and how where was it purchased?
my window installed itself perfectly on another computer.
One copy and you want to activate on two computers?
With 16GB, it will try to create 16GB hibernation file, 24GB page file, and need 20-30GB for the OS, plus room for temp, cache, applications, 9GB just temp to install SP1 update(s).
did you create 80GB or larger partition?
also, some macs with ssd + hard drive have issues, and of course you need Windows 7 64-bit home premium (Pro to use more).
OWC has up to 32GB, not cheap.

I want to install windows on my mac pro but my superdrive is dead...

I have a 2008 Mac Pro (Intel) running 10.10. I'm trying to install windows (8.1) on my machine which I have done several times before (mostly XP and windows 7). I've created a bootable USB drive using bootcamp but my machine won't boot from it or recognize it on startup. From research it doesn't seem that machines that came with super drives will allow this. Since my super drive is dead I need a way to install windows without it - buying a new one would only be used to install windows. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I can have the USB show up either with or without pulling the OS X hardrive. When I try to launch it however nothing happens although the USB flickers forever showing activity. I've tried creating the usb from both .cdr and .iso files with no difference.
I looked at the link you posted and it seems that the OP was only able to install windows from his DVD player. I really hope there is another way and appreciate your help.

Can I install Windows 8 on MacBook Pro retina?

I need to install Windows 8 or 7 in Boot Camp in order to run my embroidery software. What specific form of Windows do I need to install a full version (not an upgrade, since I do not have Windows on the MacBook Pro)? Also, I understand that Boot Camp 5 will not run Windows 8.1. Should I buy Windows 7 and steer clear of 8 altogether?
My Bernina and Floriani embroidery software will run on either Windows 7 or 8.
Many thanks in advance,
Joanna

Yes but with that version, style, it is tied to the first set of hardware, computer, it is installed on. So in theory it can't be moved to another set of hardware, computer.

Install windows 7 on mac pro raid

I have just got a mac pro with raid (3 1tb drives), they are set to raid 0 and I am trying to install windows 7 64 bit, 32bit if I really have too but it will not find the drivers on the disk the mac made for the windows installation. Where do I find the drivers, and can I set up for raid 0 and have mac+windows installed?

Mac OS X software RAID is implemented in software that loads when the Mac OS X kernel is operational.
Mac OS X software RAID cannot be used for Windows. If you want your Windows Boot Volume on a RAID, put it on a separate drive (which is good advice in general) and use a Windows-only RAID solution.
Many users find that the OS (Mac or Windows) does not benefit much from RAID -- having multiple bootable backups is a better solution. For performance, having a separate Boot Volume reduces competition for the data Drives, and speeds up your computer considerably.

Installing Windows 7 one Mac Pro with SL RAID0, and 1 extra drive 4 windows

So i have snow leopard installed on a RAID 0. I also have a single remaining hdd that has my old Leopard on it. I want to install windows 7 on that remaining internal hdd but bootcamp won't allow me to run setup because it says it doesn't support RAIDs, even though i'm not trying to install windows on the RAID.
Can someone please help me out here? Someone on another forum suggested an AHCI, but i have no experience with them. Be Detailed if you could...

First, try doing what I first suggested, pull your RAID.
Boot Camp Assistant is more trouble than it is worth, and it isn't needed for what you want to do. Format the drive with Disk Utility to MBR/FAT, or just let Windows DVD do it all.

Installing Windows 7 on Mac Pro OSX 10.8.4

As the title suggests im trying to install Windows 7 on my Mac Pro.
There are a few issues im coming across whilst trying to complete this. The main being that Boot Camp doesnt recognise the Windows disc to install from. After further reading i saw that you could essentially mount an ISO to a USB via Boot Camp. I did this successfully and then when i tried to click on 'Install' after deciding the parition sizes i just get the message 'The installer disc could not be found' - so to me its not attempting to locate the USB to try and install from. I could be way out on this and it be that you cant actually install from a USB.
So basically if anybody could provide some advice on how to install Windows 7 from a USB on my Mac Pro via Boot Camp
Cheers

How can I install Windows 7 by USB? MacBook late 2008 10.6.8 Boot Camp 3.0.4

Someone please help...
I have tried software update and no luck. I think my Boot Camp on Mac 3.0.4 is not showing me the right option on creating a USB installation. It asks me to load Windows 7 CD when I don't have it, I bought it online... Every download I tried from Apple is .exe and I am losing hope on this one...

You can only install Windows from a USB with one of these Macs:
- MacBook Pro with Retina display.
- Mac mini (Mid 2010 and later).
- iMac (Late 2012).
- MacBook Air.
If you bought Windows in Internet and you got it in a ISO image, you can burn it into a DVD. Simply double-click the ISO image, open Disk Utility, right-click the ISO image in the sidebar and burn it

"Install Windows 7 or later version" check box not showing up in Boot Camp

I am following a Reddit guide to dual boot Windows 7 on my late-2011 MBP. I've done every step up to installing Windows 7, but there is no check box to "Install Windows 7 or later" in Boot Camp. I've tried several other resources but none mention this. There is a "Remove Windows 7 or later version" check box which has a description stating it can install a Windows partition as well, but when I select it and click to go ahead it only has a selection to remove a Windows partition. I hope I'm just having a brain **** here, because I've been at this for a minute and it's causing hair loss at 21. Haha.
Ohh, and here's the guide I'm following: http://sampower.ie/windows-7-on-mavericks-via-bootcamp-and-usb/

your mac seems to think you had installed windows before
do you have more than 1 partition on your drive, if so, boot camp assistant will not work
if not, restart your mac and do a pram reset
open disk utility and repair permissions twice
open bca and try again

Help Me Plz

Go to the Windows Control Panel and select Boot Camp applet. In that applet there is a Boot Drive option. Select Mac OS X.
Or restart the system and hold down the Option key for a few second. A Boot Menu screen will come up. Select Macintosh HD.
Once in OS X go to the Sys Prefences, Startup Disk and select Macintosh HD Mt Lion 10.8.2 and click Restart then Restart again. the system will now restart in Mac OS X.
To boot back to Windows do the same, Startup Disk, and select Windows then Restart and Restart again.
