HT3986 Need to update drivers on Windows 7 Ultimate on my Macbook.

I have installed a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on Boot Camp for my MacBook. Once I use the Windows side of my Mac, I can't connect to the Internet wirelessly because it requires some sort-of network adapter. I was told by a friend I need to update the drivers on it but I don't know how. HELP!

It appears you did not follow the instructions when you ran Bootcamp Assistant. The first menu item was to download the Windows Support Software. This software contains the drivers you need. After starting Windows you then install the Windows Support Software you downloaded in step 1.
If you did not download the Support software, run Bootcamp Assistant again and select only the option to download the support software.

    do I need to update drivers or is this done through software updates

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    For drivers for your hardware (printers, AirPort cards, GPUs...), they are done through Software Update, so open it and check if you have updates. If so, install them.
    However, note that third-party peripherals (external drives, routers...) may not be updated through Software Update. In this case, you should contact with the manufacturer in order to get the latest drivers for these devices

    As you can see, that printer is compatible > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669
    To get the drivers for that printer, you just have to add the printer to OS X, following these steps > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11145 OS X will download automatically the driver for your printer after adding it to the printer list. Or you can download the Canon drivers from the Apple website > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL899
    You don't need to get drivers from the Canon website. The Apple drivers are sufficient to make the printer work, although you may find software in the Canon website that you may want

    You need to purchase a retail Leopard install disk or Snow Leopard upgrade disk(if your computer meets requirements for SL). Then update iTunes to 10.1 or greater. Check eBay or Amazon for retail Leopard Disks. You can also try calling AppleCare.

    I'd say your sister messed up and your iPod is toasted.
    Think about it...  She plugged it in to another computer, she doesn't remember what she did (yeah, right), and now your iPod is not being recognized by your computer... 
    Also take into consideration how old is your sister, and how much does she know about electronics?

  • What Vaio Models Are The Updated Drivers For Windows 10 Going To Be Compatible With?

    I have a Sony Vaio (Model Number: VPCEJ16FX) and am wondering what models of Vaio will be supported by the updated drivers?

    I understand that Sony is not to support endless models of the computers that have been placed by them out on the open market, however Microsoft itself has found a need to include windows 7 computers within their list of computers eligible for a free upgrade. As such, when Sony tells us that they will not participate in the upgrade, they essentially tell me that if they create a product that fails, that they will not support it at all, and leave all their loyal customers to fend for themselves. I have been a long time supporter of Sony and have unbelieveably been an ambassador for their company, for years since I was a child, I owned Sony Walkmen, minidisc players, DVD players, televisions, ALL OF MY COMPUTERS EVER WERE SONY, sony rewards, sony wheelers (wheel of fortune) club, Countless car stereos, home stereos, Sony dream machine alarm clocks in every room, playstation, PS2, PS3, periferals, cases, Imagestation, Sony eMarker, many of which have failed, and we accepted those failures in fact and still continued on supporting your innovation and knowhow because you continued support or somehow some way still found a way to make things right, KEEPING OUR LOYALTY!!!! And now we find ourselves here, a company that's failing little by little, when I see that they do not support drivers for computers they built NOT THAT LONG AGO, and which Microsoft themselves will support, it makes me wonder. Why should I continue with a brand that keeps facing triumphant failures and doesn't seem to care anymore about the people reliying on what products the company has put out on the market? Is this the beginning of a trend we will see from now on? I REALLY REALLY hope not. You make great products but when something goes wrong if you do not support it and make it right, you're worthless. Why? Because something eventually goes wrong with even the best of things, and you need to learn again how to make things right. Windows 10 has been in the works for some time now, and I know that Sony still had access to developer models for almost a year now, and yet still we have to wait another month. I expect nothing but the best from this company, because they set the standard so high. Glass half full, you built me a fantastic computer that still works great everyday! You need to support and recognise that, use it as a testament, an advertisement that you build great things, keep your flame alive, keep supporting, improving, developing and innovating, and you will find your numbers will turn around. I hope to see some Win 10 drivers, patches, SOMETHING available in the not too distant future that somewhat mirrors what microsoft is ready to support. Thank you. 

  • Update drivers after Windows 10 upgrade?

    I have a Y50-70 and have upgraded to Windows 10. Everything seems to be working ok, but I noticed there are a collection of drivers on the download page for this prodcut. It seems like the drivers for a number of these things was upgraded to a newer Windows 10 version as part of the upgrade, but these are Microwoft drivers. Do I need to install these Lenovo drivers? For example, there audio driver on my machine is now a version 10.x from Microsoft. The one on the download page is listed as specifically for Windows 10 but is version 6.x (probably a Lenovo version). It has always striked me odd that a computer owner needs to monitor these drivers manually. It seems to me something akin to "Windows Update" should be watching over the drivers for us. Perhaps even Windows Updat itself with the vendors sending in their drivers, or addresses to the drivers for Update to send out. thanks!

This has been a big bone of contention with the NVidia drivers since NVidia wants to control their drivers through its own interface (GE Force Experience), but Windows 10 keeps overwriting any driver one tries to instal from a 3rd party. I believe the only exception would be if Microsoft does not have a driver for said hardware or feature.  There is supposedly a short term workaround and supposedly a feature called "slow ring" or something like that to allow you an option to receive automatic updates at a later date than they are normaly pushed. Windows 10 has supposedly done away of User Options concerning updates, which is a problem in my opinion. http://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2015/07/25/windows-10-automatic-update-problems/  Another Windows 10 potential problem is WiFi Sense which stores your WiFi password on a Microsoft server and all of your contacts from Outlook to Facebook and beyond can also have access to YOUR network IF they happen to be within range of your network. If within range, they could auto login and use your WiFi and possibly more. I'm not sure if this answered you question fully but Microsoft has confirmed that if you change driver updates, Win 10 will just update it again using what Windows believes you should use. Read the article posted above. There could be newer info out since that is about one week old. 

  • Satellite L350D-213 - Updating drivers on Windows 7

    Bought Satellite L350D-213 mid Nov. Pre-loaded with Winodws 7. System auto detect on Tosh site shows that whole batch of new Windows7 drivers issued on 3/12/09. Was wondering whether I need to install all these drivers.
    Up to now only prob has been webcam "locked by another application" which hours of web searching showed to be very common prob. Downloaded latest webcam driver issued on 3rd Dec. Cam ok at moment but only time will tell. Is it advisable to go through the whole list of applicable drivers or leave things as they are. Don't want to cause uneccessary probs.
    Any advice welcome.

    Hello
    Its nice to read that your webcam works properly now and this would be also my suggestion to update the driver regarding this issue.
    However, if your computer runs properly now I dont see any reason to update any drivers. Why you should do this?
    I think drivers are only released to solve problems on other notebooks or compatibility issues so if you dont have problems you must update nothing. I can recommend never change a running system! ;)
    So have fun with your notebook dont bother about updating drivers.

  • Need to update drivers for to use my HDMI port

    For some reason, the HP support program will not update my video card drivers and I cannot use an HDMI cable to connect my DVD in my computer to my Samsung TV (not a smart TV).  The program to download updated HP drivers is also not working to download drivers and goes in an endless spin and never identifies the needed driver. Should I delete the support framework and reload it or use something else.

    Based on the product number for your model, this is the only graphics driver available.

  • HP ENVY 17-j021nr Notebook PC Need Display adapter drivers for Windows 10

    I upgraded to Windows 10  64 bit.  After the install my side monitor did not come on.  I thought I would have to manually update the drivers. After going to the hp support site: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-ENVY-17-Notebook-PC-series/5354973/model/5395122?sku=E0K86UA&ssfFlag=true#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1 I do not see any "video drivers" for my laptop. I also went to the Nvidia site, Downloaded and installed the drivers for the Nvidia Geforce GT 740m but that did not work. I did the "clean intall" option. I Called HP support. They said that i needed a higher level of support and transfered me to a different department. This unknown to me named department states that there is a fix for this. That I would have to pay for at least 1 day of support so they could remote into my system and correct the issue. I said how much? They said $100 I simple need drivers that will work for my video card so that I can start using the HDMI output on my laptop.  I need the Nvida card to operate at peak performance at some point but for now I am simply asking for compatible display adapter dri vers.

    I am having the same problem withmy display adaptors after updating to windows 10. I can't find any fix online. I think HP has not yet built an update for my driver. If anyone can help, please HELP!!! my driver is an AMD Radeon HD 8400 R3 Series.

  • Updating drivers for Windows 8 boot camp

    Hi there,
    I just installed the full release version of Windows 8 (available through my University) in boot camp. However, the drivers for several devices aren't working properly and should be updated. My question is, if I update the drivers so that the devices are compatable with Windows 8, will the drivers then be mismatched when I revert back to OSX?
    Thank you.

    Sorry, didn't realize that there was a boot camp community - probably a better place for my question. I will repost there. https://discussions.apple.com/message/19847211#19847211

  • Need Palm Bluetooth Drivers For Windows 7 64 Bit

    Hi,
    I am a long time Palm Pilot user and I have been there through all the trials and tribulations.  I have just bought a new computer running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit edition and I am trying to find the drivers for Bluetooth sync.
    I am using a Palm Tungsten E2 and the Palm OS 6.2 and with the computer I am currently using (Windows 7 Home Premuim 64-Bit)  I sync via Bluetooth and never had any problems and want to keep it that way.
    WyreNut and several members did a lot of work when Windows 7 first came out and helped a lot fo people with synch issues.  I have searched the Forums and cannot find a link to where I can download the Bluetooth drivers so I can synch my Palm Pilot via Bluetooth to my new computer.
    If someone could kindly point me to where I can get the Bluetooth drivers I will be grateful.  Thanks so much.

    Hi, please clarify as it sounds like both your old and new computers are the same OS.
    As you know, the E2 has Bluetooth built-in.  There are no Bluetooth drivers to download.

  • I need help updating drivers, please.

    I've got an older MSI MS-StarForce GeForce4 Ti 4200 VIVO card installed in a Windows XP box.
    The card is running NVIDIA v5663 (MSI Version) drivers.  MSI Live Monitor tells me there are new drivers for my card, these are the NVIDIA v6121 (MSI Version) drivers.
    I've let MSI Live Monitor download the drivers 3 time now; each time setup goes through the motions of installing the drivers and reboots my computer.
    When I again check on the driver version for my video card in Device Manager, it tells me I have NVIDIA v5663 (MSI Version) drivers installed, these are the same old drivers I had before.
    It seems the new drivers can't install for some reason even though I completely disable Norton A/V before I start downloading the new drivers.
    Can someone give me some tips as to things to do so that I can finally install the new drivers for my video card?
    Thanks
