Install of Win 7 will not continue.

Hello there,
I want to install Windows 7 via Boot Camp and using a MacbookPro (about 14 month old).
What I have here is the Install CD of Win 7, Mac OSX Snow Leopard and some Version of Bootcamp.
Here is the first problem, I can`t find the information what version of BootCamp I have. All system updating is done...
I read a few articels that say I need to have the 3.1 Update. So downloading it and finding an .exe file. Ok, read I have to install it in Windows.
So I need an update to install something but can only update after installing?
Downloading the BootCamp Version 3.0 is not possible, it seems not to exist, only updates.
But I tried to install. After the partition it starts with the win 7 disk in the CD-Case. Starting - New Windows - liscensing - and than choosing the path. So i choose the path of BOOTCAMP. But than I can`t go further, its not possible. The option to update is there, but nothing happens. The other option is drift, but it can`t find anything there. I even tried an extern drive where I put the Bootcamp update and the Mac OSX CD on it (as I can`t change a CD while the windows CD is inside), but that doesn`t change anything.
Does anyone have a clue and can help me?
Thanks a lot!

Re-read the guide in Boot Camp Assistant or pdf - it really is all there.
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp
That has links to downloads, tech support articles and more.
Just partition and boot from Windows 7 DVD (not CD)
When it asks where, the pdf guide tells you to select "BOOTCAMP" partition but also, Advanced Option to change it (format) to NTFS.
Don't worry about versions, just use your Mac OS as is, and when Windows is done installing then insert your OS X DVD and run SETUP.exe which will be BC 3.0. ONLY then can it be updated to 3.1 and finally to 3.2, either manually or through Windows Apple Software Update (part of BC 3.0).
YOU DO NOT NEED 3.1 - or, if you do, it is only that 3.0 came out before Windows 7 shipped (hence buggy).
At this point in time, those should be re-written, as you really need 3.2 update.

I have a Mac OS X Version 10.4.11 and cannot install Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Install 'stalls' and will not continue. Help!

After resisting an upgrade for the longest time, I had to purchase one to support my new iPhone 4, as my old version would not upgrade my iTunes. Now I cannot get the system to install. It 'stalls' and will not continue. I have tried 3 times [the definition of insanity: repeating the same behavior expecting different results] and each time I had to hard boot to even get the disk to pop out. Help!

Hi there. Thanks for even looking at my question! I am brand new in the community. I finally just gave up and went to bed, leaving it running and my sister watching it. Of course, it did indeed finally install but my gosh! I have NEVER seen something take so long! Thanks again for the email. Linda w/a new OS!

Mabel are you referring to Flash Player or Flash Professional? Also what version are you trying to install? Finally what operating system are you using?

I am trying to update to iTunes 10 to us my new iPad, but I can not remove a corrupted "apple software update" program... I can get everything else off, but due to "previous version" of software update it will not continue.

I stopped in to see one of the genius at the local store who referred me to "Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable" (I am trying to install it on a Windows XP System)
The last version on iTunes on my PC was iTunes 7.
Thanks for your help,

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to be locked up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano;

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to lock up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I let it run all night the first time and it never went past the 2nd song. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano; shut down laptop and restarted a different time; shorted the number of songs to sync; all without benefit.

When you connect your ipod up to the computer. It should show the device, usually with the name of the device, in my case 'jordan's ipod'. This should be on the row which shows 'songs', 'albums' e.t.c on the far right. There when you click on it it should go to a different screen showing a picture of your ipod along with two buttons - Update and Restore. Click update and it should take a 2 mins while your ipod is updated to the latest version of Ios.
After updating te ipod see if there is a change in results.
PS: make sure the device is active while syncing so keep tapping the screen.
Sorry for any incorrect info, i have an ipod touch, but i've had experience with an ipod

Do not worry. It is probably a permission you should ignore, but you should check that the permission appears in this site > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
(Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".)

I keep getting a download error message. I hit retry but tells me I can not download right now. I have been able to download other items. I think the download was interrupted and now it will not continue downloading. Help!

What do I do when a download is interrupted and then will not continue to download?

I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again.

Hi,
I would like to know if the backup program has been uninstalled?
I suggest updating your graphic card driver from manufacturer's site and scanning the computer with your security software. Also test the issue in
Clean Boot. If possible, try to reinstall problematic games.
