Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

You either download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant and save to USB FAT disk, or you insert and use 10.6.x OS X DVD when in Windows and install and run the SETUP from there.

Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc. The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard.
The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
To install the Boot Camp drivers:
1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
2 Insert the Mac OS X disc. If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.
If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.
Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.
If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers
If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.
To repair Boot Camp drivers:
1 Start up your computer in Windows.
2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.
Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

how to update mac os x 10.5.8

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

How to update Mac OSX 10.7.5 to 10.9? It says Your software is up to date when i do the Software update check

Wowzah. Not directed at you, but, like ouch!
£15 to have a minor OS refresh and bug fix, from a corporation with $$$ in cash in the bank, seems a bit tight to me. Talk about making Microsoft look generous.. sheesh.
I run 10.8 on my MacBook pro and need 10.8 to run the xcode 5 dev tools on my work mac... I thought it would be a simple download, didn't realise we'd have to pay? Frankly the differences are in no way deserving of any price tag!
Apple - try being more generous, people might like you more instead of just resenting every time we have to deal with you. The only fun bit seems to be walking out the door with the shiny new thing.

How to update mac from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5 for quicken

HI there,
I just purchased quicken and it states that I need 10.7.5 or higher for it to run. I have 10.6.8 and need to find out how to update to the 10.7.5. Thank you.
Debbue

Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

How to update video drivers in Windows?

I just bought the new MBP this morning. I began crashing while playing Warhammer and it seems like it could be a driver issue. I tried installing two different drivers from laptopvideo2go.com but both of them made me immediately bluescreen whenever trying to boot into Windows. I had to rollback the driver both times.
When trying to use the official Nvidia site to detect whether I had the latest drivers, it told me to go check my manufacturer's site for drivers. I've been looking for a long time and can't seem to find anything.

I would recommend checking the tips and forum on laptop2go, and use Driver Sweeper (and tips for how to uninstall, delete, and update drivers) or review the tips if you are doing that already.
http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/drivers/
http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/
These tips for eVGA apply to any graphic driver update:

Nvidia starts offering mobile GPU drivers directly
Getting driver updates for desktop graphics cards is usually pretty easy: head to the GPU maker's website, grab the latest driver release, and you're set. That procedure often doesn't work with mobile GPUs, since users have to rely on laptop makers to provide driver updates—something that doesn't always happen in a timely manner.
Nvidia has attempted to change the formula by releasing a set of beta ForceWare drivers for GeForce 8M, 9M, and Quadro NVS mobile graphics processors. The release is available right now for Windows Vista x86, Windows Vista x64, Windows XP x86, and Windows XP x64, but Nvidia warns that the drivers won't work with Dell Vostro, Lenovo ThinkPad, and Sony VAIO notebooks, along with laptops that use Hybrid SLI technology. A set of completed, non-beta drivers will be out in early 2009.

How To update Mac OSX 10.3.9 (Dual 1.8ghz)

I recently purchased an iPod Classic but it won't operate from my system (Which is lame!) ... I was considering updating from Panther to Tiger or Leopard (they seem to be the same price) ... I've read many posts about the new Leopard's bugs etc., also I'm about to start doing some pre production (music) from home using Pro-Tools --- And I read on the digi design site that Leopard is not compatible with their system as of yet ...After reading the post I'm leaning towards not getting Leopard until Apple works out the kinks - Now Tiger ... on the iPod Classic box it requires Mac OSX 10.4.8 (which I didn't see until I got home) --- It looks like on the apple site that Tiger runs 10.4.6 -- (***??) If I purchase this can I download a Tiger update 10 10.4.8 or higher ? I'm confused and frustrated ---
If I knew this I would have purchased an iPod Video 5th generation from one of the commercial stores (same size) and it runs on Panther... and it cheaper ...
PLEASE someone let me know what my best option would be ... beside returning the iPOD CLASSIC ...
I appreciate any help...and please excuse my frustration...

Hi Jcverses!
Here is some additional info.
Exactly which model Mac is it?
What is the Processor speed?
What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
Note that the stated System Requirements for any version of OS X, are the bare Minimum.
As roam posted, once an OS has been installed, the point upgrades, such as 10.1.x to 10.1.5 (Final) 10.2.x to 10.2.8 (Final), 10.3.x to 10.3.9 (Final), 10.4.x to 10.4.11 (Pending), and 10.5.x to 10.5.1 (Pending), can be downloaded for free.
Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
If your Mac meets the Leopard System Requirements. Leopard 10.5.x, can be purchased at The Apple Store (U.S.).
If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can also be purchased, sometimes less expensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, FastMac, HardCore Mac, AllMac, etc.
Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.
Additional info in these links.

Caveat Emptor!
If any are presently available, examine these items very carefully, and if in doubt, ask questions of the seller before purchase!
Tiger On eBay
If your Mac meets the Tiger System Requirements, once Tiger 10.4.x is installed, you can use the PPC 10.4.11 Combo Update, to upgrade to the current version.
If Leopard 10.5.x is installed, you would use the Mac OS X 10.5.1 Update.
Additionally, Tiger 10.4.x and Leopard 10.5.x, ship on a DVD, so if your Mac doesn’t have a built-in DVD-ROM player, you will have to use an alternative method of installation.

And here Installing Tiger Using Firewire Target Disk Mode.
The Tiger Media Exchange Program, referred to in that article, is no longer available.
Shop Carefully, Examine All Documentation, And I Wish You Success!

Run Windows 8.1 on Mac Air 100%? How to update Mac Firmware?

I know it's possible to run Windows 100% on my Mac through BootCamp (I have small SSD hard drive so it is one or other). My question is if I install Mavericks on a USB thumb drive will I still receive firmware updates from Apple via keeping the USB updated? Or, will those firmware updates just stay on USB?
Thanks.

What a question. Theoretically, if you keep OS X Mavericks installed in a USB drive and it is updated, you will be able to receive firmware updates and to get them installed in your Mac.
To install firmware updates in your Mac, OS X copies the firmware to the EFI partition (a small partition at the start of the drive), and they are installed the next time your Mac starts up. This means that your USB drive with OS X Mavericks must be formatted in "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" and have a GUID partition table. With this, all firmware updates will be installed to your computer.

How to update mac osx 10.5.8 to 10.6?
