I can't get Windows to fully setup when I try to boot camp
I trying to boot camp my mac with windows. I'm pretty sure I'm doing everything right but if I'm not this is what I'm doing
1. opening bootcamp and entering the windows 7 CD and partitioning the drive.
2. after windows installs the computer restarts onto the windows set up.
3. I sellect the country and all then format the boot camp drive and choose it then hit next
4. the set up does all of the things exept for the last one then it restarts and finishes that.
5. it then starts and goes to the windows start screen (the logo) then the screen goes black. The computer is till on but wont go on to the rest of the set up
This is what I do and what is happening if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong or why I cant finish the setup, please do. Than you!
that happens to me sometimes and i figured out how to do it
1. right click iTunes icon on your desktop
2. click add/remove programs link
3. look for iTunes and click Repair
4. repair the installation then try plugging your ipod in
make sure your ipod's battery is drained out completly or windows wont read it for a couple of minutes

I can't get my apple magic mouse to work on my boot camp,running Windows 7 Ultimate on my early 2011 macbook pro with latest Marveric OS........ It works perfectly on the Apple ,
Not sure if this will help anyone, but I had trouble installing on 10.8.
I then found this particular support page:

Be patient with the download, it takes some time ... When it has downloaded, follow the install instructions. It works well.
I use the printer through usb but my wife uses wireless from her PC laptop.

Can I get help with podcasts? When I try to open the podcasts tab, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish. everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.
The only other thing I can suggest is to use the Repair option for iTunes.
Download the iTunes programme (do not uninstall your current iTunes) and then "install" the new copy. At some stage you should see an option to "install" or "Repair". Take the Repair option.
Once you've done that, if you still have a problem, I don't know what else to suggest, except to search through the discussions to see if anyone else has had the problem and managed to fix it. -
Getting Windows 8.1 on Macbook Air 2013 via Boot Camp
I purchased and downloaded Windows 8.1 Pro Student onto a PC to get the ISO image and did not install it. I saved it to a flash drive and trasfered it to a folder in my Macbook. Now i'm trying to use bootcamp with a 8 gig flash dive to install it on my 2013 mac air but its taking forever and isn't giving me a time. Did i miss something?
Windows 8.1 is not yet supported by Boot Camp.

I need to use windows in order to use Visual C++ for college but I don't have enough space in my internal Hard Drive so I want to install windows 7using boot camp or any other method on a portable hard drive and boot from it.
Please help I need it as soon as possible for school. ThanksYou can't boot Windows natively except on internal drives.
You can use a VM and put the VM image (VHD) anywhere any drive you want.
You are way too low on disk space, seriously so. And no room - even Windows and Mac OS should be warning and balking already.
"emulator" is an old-school term, even true, running a Guest OS under Mac's as a virtual machine, shared resources (RAM, processor) is easier but not the same performance level as running natively.

I lost my Google toolbar but finally retrieved it, and cannot display my menu bar, which I need in order to print, etc.
Hello,
In Firefox 4, you don't have the menu bar by default. You can view the menu bar by right click on the bar near the TAB's, you'll get a menu with choices, among the choices is "Menu bar" check that and you have your menu bar back.
Regards,

I bought a new Mac. I previously had my iPhone and iPad synched to my PC. I set up iTunes but my playlists did not come over from my PC. I can redo that without a problem...BUT...I just tried to synch my iPad with my Mac and I got the following message: The iPad "name" cannot be synched. You do not have the privilege to make changes. I deauthorized my PC and have authorized my Mac...it just won't synch. Help!!

How do I bypass the security questions to purchase with itunes. I never answered them in the first place. I don't have a reset security questions at the bottom of the page either
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

I have the system "windows 8.1". When I try to install Photoshop Elements 9 I became the error Message; Photoshop can't be install, I need the Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher. The setup will be closed.
There is a problem with IE10+ in that it is mistakenly seen as being IE1. To get around this either use a different browser or use compatibility view (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-10)

Help Mac-brothers: can't get Windows to install
Thanks for reading. No matter how I try, I just can't get Windows (either Vista or XP Pro) installed on my Macpro! I made a partition with Bootcamp, started the installationprocess, on asking where to put Windows I selected the Bootcamp-partition and reformatted it. No matter what I do, it keeps telling me that it can't install Windows becouse it does not see a suitable sytem volume. what am I doing wrong? It drives me mad. Any help is welcome. Thank in advance!
Vista x64 doesn't like the NTFS partition BootCamp creates, so you have to delete and format, then reboot off the Vista DVD again.
And sometimes it only works if OS X is nowhere to be found (removed).
I always put Windows Vista on its own hard drive. And pull my OS X drive.
Having four drive bays, very easy.
Never tried with Pro. And in fact, I only 'tested' BootCamp Assistant once or twice. I just format a drive as FAT and then let Vista format it. BCA isn't necessary, and you can install the Apple drivers later when Windows is fully installed, patched, updated, and running fine. -
Satellite A200-1M4: Can I get Windows Vista separately?
Hello
When I install Product Recovery CD, it installs Windows Vista and many programs I don't need.
I want just to install Windows Vista (even excluding drivers).
So, can I get Windows Vista (Home Premium) setup separately?
ThanksHello
There is no separately setup. You are not alone with this opinion and nobody force you to use all installed stuff. I remove also all stuff I do not need.
Install OS using recovery CD, download all Microsoft updates to be sure everything is up to date and then remove all stuff you do not need. Believe me I do the same.
Just for example - I have one Satellite delivered with WXP and I have done follow:
1. Installed OS using delivered recovery DVD
2. Installed all Microsoft updates
3. Removed all applications I do not need
4. Installed all applications I need for work (Office, Nero and so on)
5. Installed Norton Ghost
6. Created my own recovery image
Now I can reinstall my own OS and after just 30 minutes everything is there. In case of some virus or any other strange issue I have install OS again (on partition C). All saved data on partition D are still there and can be used after image installation.
