HT4410 How do I download Windows 7 ISO image to my flash drive

I have a new mac mini and want to use it's boot camp assistant to set up windows 7, but I am having trouble finding a way to download the Windows 7 ISO image to a USB flash drive.  Where can I buy and download this?  With the mini, no optical drive is available and I don't want to buy the box, just download it and get it going.

    HOW DO I DOWNLOAD AN ITUNES PURCHASED MOVIE ONTO A FLASH DRIVE

    If you want to back it up to the flash drive, download it normally, locate the downloaded file, and drag it there.
    If you want the active iTunes library on the drive, locate it in the Finder or Windows Explorer, drag it there, launch iTunes with the Option(Mac OS X) or Shift(Windows) keys held down, and point it there.

  • How do i burn an ISO image to a flash drive?

    I tried to use disk utility and dragged my ISO file into the source box and then my flash drive into the destination box. When i clicked restored and entered in my password i got a dialog box saying "Restore failure, Could not validate source - Invalid arguement". If someone could help me that would be great. I was trying to burn Windows 7 so that way I could install it in bootcamp because I need Windows for school.

    Launch Disk Utility and select File: New: Disk Image From Folder. In the window that appears, navigate to the desired folder and then click on Image. Give the image file a name, and click on Save when prompted. That’s it.

  • How do you download itunes library on to a usb flash drive

    I want to download my ituneslibrary on to a sandisc ultra 16GB usb flash drive to play in my truck I never used a usb flash drive before!

    You probably don't want the entire library which is essentially everything in the iTunes folder.  Some of the files are part of iTunes only.
    To add media to a flash drive the easiest way is to simply drag the tracks from iTunes to the flash drive open in a Finder window.  This will result in a collection of media files.  Depending upon your player you may want more organization than that since it may simply end up playing the files in alphabetical order.  You will have to do your own work at this stage and read your player's manual because just about each model is different in terms of what structured playing is supported.  Some may read the labels/tags in each files as you see in iTunes, other may play folder by folder, some may require a specially formatted text file playlist, others don't support any structure and if you want to change play order you have to edit the file names, etc.

  • How do you install Windows 7 on Macbook Air with a Windows 7 ISO image?

    Macbook Airs have no optical drives, and I can't buy one. I do, however, have the Windows 7 ISO image. And I also have access to a Windows 7 PC. I found an article on CNET on installing from a Flash Drive, but that requires the CD. I also have a hard drive (120GB) and Flash USB (4GB), if they could help. Please help me as many programs I am familiar with are only windows-based. I am tried using open-source software like Wineskin Winery and WineBottler, but to no avail, I always end up confused with them.Please help me.

    Crjohnson, I think you can really help me!
    Okay, how do you use Wine? I don't want to install lots of software like MacPorts, just want the minimal software. So there are many things like Wine, WineBottler, and Wineskin Winery. What do I use for what? For example, I want to turn a windows game (Age of Empires 2 for example) into a full Mac App. How would I go about this?
    I tried researching but it is so in-depth with terminal commands and all(i dont want to risk ruining my computer)
    What is crossover? Is it another wine app?
    Oh, and I tried Winery Wineskin...why doesn't it work? It keeps installing random things like Gecko, or Mono, but in the end, it doesn't work. Do I need the windows app's executable, or the window's apps's installation executable??
    What are engines, and how many do I need to create? I think the best thing for me is to learn wine, because installing windows with bootcamp isn't worth the effort, I think, with me having only a few apps i need to run.
    As for learning mac apps only, well, Windows apps dominate the market with most of applications being made for windows, especially games, with 90% market. So for some apps, there just isn't a mac version available, or if there is, it's costly. (Which you already know I can't buy things)
    You probably cannot afford to buy Crossover either.  It is designed for user friendliness though, but of course Wine cannot run everything.
    Yes you have to learn some things to use Wineskin.  Normally on Gecko and Mono prompt, just cancel them.  Gecko is needed if you have a program using mshtml (its basically a replacement for Internet Explorer for programs that use parts of it).  Mono is a replacement for .NET if your program requires that.  You do not want to install them if you don't need them as they will just waste space.  You can always refresh the wrapper later on and get the same prompts if you find out you need them later.
    You can copy the full installed version of a game inside the Wineskin wrapper and try to set it up that way, but its usually easier to just run the installer and install it inside the wrapper just like you'd install it in Windows.
    An Engine is something you download... its basically a specific Wine build made for a Wineskin wrapper.
    If you do not want to learn Wineskin enough to get in and port your programs yourself, you can often find other people who have done so (at least with games).
    Check out sites like PaulTheTall.com who has tons of Wineskin wrappers already made and ready to go for many games... you just download the wrapper, install the game you want in it using the normal Installer, then its ready to go.  Many you'll need to manually update yourself to Wineskin 2.5.8 though since all the older versions broke ok the OS X 10.8.2 and 10.7.5 update, and Paul hasn't gotten to all of them yet since he has hundreds (including AoE 2 i think).
    There is also Portingteam.com which has tons of pre-made wrappers for games (Including Cider hacks from official games).
    If your talking about non-Game apps though, you can normally find an alternative... many of which are free.

  • My mac book air can't start installation, because i use windows installation in DOS to make partion, now no mac os on it. How to get back the mac os? i have a window based iso image from a friend, because in my country there is no Apple service.

    It sounds like you destroyed your boot partition and the recovery partition.  Depending on it's age, your MacBook Air might be able to do a net boot.  Plug and ethernet connection into it and attempt to boot.  If it has the right firmware, it will find a net boot configuration on the net and boot that.  Then it will give you a Recovery Partition like display and allow you to reinstall the OS X version that came with it.... assuming that it was Lion or ML.  If your computer came with Snow Leopard, then even the net boot won't work. 
    At that point you need a bootable USB Key, or an external DVD drive AND a Snow Leopard installation DVD. 
    An Apple Store, if there is one nearby, MAY be able to get you going again.  However, whatever is on the SSD now will be toast too.

  • I am trying to reinstall Windows on my macbook pro.  I downloaded the support files and Windows 7 iso file to a USB drive.  However, when I try to run the setup.exe program I get the message "this program cannot be run in DOS mode."

    I am trying to reinstall Windows (would not launch).  I removed the partition and started over.  I downloaded the support files and Windows 7 iso file to a USB drive.  However, when I try to run the setup.exe program I get the message "this program cannot be run in DOS mode."  I was successful before, what am I doing wrong this time?

    Try a restart.
    If that doesn't fix the problem, shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application unistaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • How do I download Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my new MacBook Air (Mid 2011) from a Windows 7 PC?

    How do I download Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my new MacBook Air (Mid 2011)? I have already formated the HD and preformed a clean install of Windows 7. Perhaps I did this too early. I have read I need to install the drivers from my OS X DVD, however, OS X Lion does not come on a DVD! I've also read that I can download OS X Lion from the App Store and burn it to a DVD, however, all I have are Windows PCs which don't support the Mac App Store.
    Is there no way for me to download these drivers from a Windows PC?  I know they exist.  However, you are supposed to download them through Boot Camp in OS X when you are creating a new Windows 7 installation.  I'm I stuck?

    I am pretty disappointed in the lack of documentation.
    This is the Apple Support page for Boot Camp:
    http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    No mention anywhere of Lion, of 4.0/4.01
    In the past, 10.6.6+ was suppose to - and sometimes did - provide for a download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant program, in order to save them to flash or such (that should be about 1GB, too large for CD). Some macs req'd a USB-DVD or other driver that was needed pre-install of Winidows
    You don't install Apple drivers until after Windows is installed otherwise,
    It is possible for me, with a tower, to run w/o needing any drivers from Apple. But with laptops, mini, you do need some drivers from Apple for graphics, internet, wireless, SMC support.
    And right now, loading any Apple support Tech Note articles is very very slow.
    People keep asking why Apple can't post 3.0 or 4.0 like they do the updates. Only logic is to force t he download from inside OS X or from an OS X DVD. Otherwise would be here, and avoid all the trouble. they aren't of use on a PC, and any PC motherboard vendor does post their support software for download.

    That is because whoever programmed the web site used Internet Explorer extentions. These will only run in Internet Explorer. So, use a computer with Windows to use that web site.

    Go to a Office type store or online and buy a copy of Windows  7 Home Basic, Home or Pro  (whatever) and stick the 64bit DVD into the computer.
    You'll have to first learn about Bootcamp  if your going to want to dual boot, it's complex and a hassle, but gives full hardware performance.
    https://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    Another way is to first install VMFusion, Parallels or VirtualBox and then install Windows into that, Windows runs like a file in a window on OS X. You can run Windows programs in that, but it's not as powerful as BootCamp method, but more convenient for most normal (non-hardware taxing) programs.

    How do you download pictures from an Album in IPhoto to a flash drive?

    Open iPhoto, go to the Album, if you only want some of the photos in the Album then select just those (via Command + click), then go to the File menu and select Export. The second step of the export process will be a standard file save dialog window where you can select the flash drive as the location to export to.
