Install Windows 8 on 13" late-2011 macbook pro (incompatible?)

I'm trying to install Windows 8 on my Macbook Pro 13" i7 (late-2011) using bootcamp. I've got Mountain Lion 10.8.3, which I assume means Boot Camp 5. According to this article (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634?viewlocale=en_US), my computer should support Windows 8.
But when I run Boot Camp Assistant, during the part where it's downloading files, it pops up and says something like "This computer is only compatible with Windows 7. Do you want to continue?"
Why can't I install Windows 8? My computer should be compatible, according to everything I've read online.
Thanks,
Harrison

I have had Windows 8 running on the 13" MacBook Pro i7 16GB (Late 2011) since December 2012 before the release of OSX 10.8.3 and it worked fine after a few missing drivers were located.
After the release of 10.8.3 and the new BootCamp 5 Drivers the MBP functions perfectly.
Don't burn the Windows Support Software to a USB but burn to a DVD unzipping them from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638
We have internal DVD's so use it for both the Windows 8 install and the BootCamp 5 Support Software and forget the USB route.
Piece of Cake!

How to install Windows 7 on Late 2013 Macbook Pro?

I purchased a brand new Macbook Pro last week, retina display and all. I've enjoyed it thus far, yet for whatever reason, I can't seem to install windows on a partition in BootCamp like I used to be able to. I'm on Mavericks of course, 10.9.3. I tried installing Windows on an 8gb flash drive, only to find it freeze right as the Windows initial setup comes up. I have no disc drive on this laptop, and I see no reason why I would have to buy an external optical drive just to install windows. I have an ISO file from my university, and all I want to do is use it. Also, VmWare Fusion is not what I'm looking to use.The Graphics card driver fails for most of my favorite steam games. I'd like to use bootcamp how it used to be. I tried editing the assistant's .plist after finding a tutorial on google, but Bootcamp crashes every time. I'm out of options. So my question is how do I install windows 7 on this computer?
Really hoping someone can solve my problem. All I want to do is play Sniper Elite III, and nothing will work. Thank you

Hello Wes109,

Late 2011 MacBook Pro can't boot after Yosemite install

After installing Yosemite on this late 2011 MacBook Pro it stops about a third of the way into booting up. It displays a null sign. I can boot into recovery disk, or external HD (I don't have a backup of this system, but can boot from my MacBook Air's clone) if I use option-R or just option at startup. It won't go into Safe Mode. From the ext HD I have reinstalled Yosemite on the MBP, but it still freezes mid-boot. Disk Utility repair permissions, repair HD, zap PRAM, SMC, I've tried all of these (from reading advice here, and PM from Ogelthorpe). I have copied the Etre Report below. Suggestions?

Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
7. Quit DU when it is finished and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard. Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Windows 7 install on late 2011 MacBook Pro without bootcamp (performance issues)

Hey guys I'm hoping I can get this issue resolved. I have purchased a late 2011 MacBook Pro (radeon 6750m 1gig). I installed a fresh copy of windows 7 without bootcamp. Having real issues with game performance like world of Warcraft. I have done this with an older unibody Mac and it ran great (for any non believer)... But now this time around I'm getting horrible fps in game. I'm thinking it may be driver related it buy I am having trouble finding the right drivers to see if that's then issue. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

That is completely false. There is no real need to leave OS X on the Mac if you don't want to, especially with Win 7 or 8. That may of been true with Windows XP but not anymore.
The problem with leaving OS X installed is then you are really limited with what you can do with the drive. You can only have one Windows partition and if you fool with it at all Windows will no longer boot. you can't even change the OS X partition otherwise Windows would boot
Windows 7 will install all by itself. No need for any Boot loaders or Hack Boot system. Pop the Win 7 DVD in the DVD drive and restart. Windows will be installed all by itself. But you do need the Apple support files.
In the end if you are going to run Windows on a computer by itself then you really should not buy a Mac. The hardware is the same and as to the OPs perceived better built quality I personally do not see it. And if you actually read some of the posts on this and other Mac forums you will see that perceived build quality is just a bunch of hype, in my opinion.
To the OP. You aren't missing anything.
If you had carefully read what I wrote, I merely said that doing the install on a blank drive wasn't a good idea. That's because it can create issues the OP is having. A Mac's hardware is no different than a comparable Windows machine, but the EFI/BIOS/Firmware is. Macs are in something of a no-man's land in this regard, as they have neither an old-school BIOS or modern UEFI of recent Windows-based notebooks. I'm willing to bet that the performance problems the OP is having relates to the fact that a straight EFI install on a modern MBP "enables" (for lack of a better word) automatic graphic switching. The capability manifests, but the functionality is not there. Enterprising individuals have been trying to get graphic switching in Windows to work as it does on the OS X side ever since MacBooks debuted with this abliity but with zero success.
Using Boot Camp bypasses this, as the discreet GPU is enabled full-time in Windows. Thus, you will realize proper performance.
As far as perceived build quality, Apple machines are at the high end of the consumer notebook spectrum. They're certainly better than most of the other machines you can pick up at your local Best Buy, but they fall short of business-class machines such as the Dell Latitude/Precision, HP ProBook/EliteBook, and Lenovo ThinkPad.

I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 and I'm wondering if I install Windows 7 Ultimate to this MacBook Pro with this Full Retail Version. And if so, which bit to use either 32-bit or 64-bit since I have both disks.

I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 and I'm wondering if I install Windows 7 Ultimate to this MacBook Pro with this Full Retail Version. And if so, which bit to use either 32-bit or 64-bit since I have both disks.

64 bit.
32 bit won't use all your computer's ram.
64 bit allows you to run 32 bit programs
Your computer is 64 bit
New programs use 64 bit.
There is no reason to use the 32 bit version of Windows.

Late 2011 MacBook Pro stuck at spinning wheel of death after a Thunderbolt issue, HD erasing and fresh Lion install from Recovery HD. Please help me!!!

So, I think the title says it all, but to give you a little more info:
I connected my late 2011 MacBook Pro to my TV using a Thunderbolt HDMI adapter, and closed the lid. When I opened it, it wouldn't show the login screen, so I restarted using power button. Got stuck at the Apple logo with the spinning wheel. So I booted the Recovery HD and found out it was a HD problem, so I (reluctantly) erased the HD and installed Lion from scratch. When it rebooted (after DOWNLOADING the Lion components) I got some terminal commands (sorry for not being more specific, still a noob when it comes to Mac) and then the screen faded and a message appeared saying I needed to reboot the computer. So I did. 3 effing times. Then I got stuck AGAIN at the spinning wheel, and I'm currently with that on my screen. I'm trying the forums before calling Apple (my computer's still within the 90 days of warranty) because it's not yet 9 A.M. where I live

can you go back to recovery mode then open disk utility.
in disk utility, higlight the disk, the one saying the brand and size then click on repair disk under first aid tab
if it repairs fine, that's okay
if repair was not successful, go to partition and change current to 1 partition then apply
install lion again
hope this helps

I have a late 2011 macbook pro and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated

I have a late 2011 macbook pro running OSX Lion, and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated. Im wondering what can i do to stop this or get it to update.

Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

What is the maximum amount of RAM I can install in a late 2011 Macbook Pro 17"?

What is the maximum amount of RAM I can install and will be suported in a late 2011 Macbook Pro 17"?
Thank you,
Patrice

http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-i7-2.4- 17-late-2011-unibody-thunderbolt-specs.html
Although Apple states a maximum of 8 GB, OWC (macsales.com) has tested 16 GB, so if you want to install 16 GB, I'd go with OWC as they tested it and do guarantee their RAM to work with Macs.

Late 2011 Macbook Pro with SSD Freezing

Hello,
I have a late 2011 macbook pro and about six or so months ago I have it a new lease on live with a Samsung 840 SSD (non pro).
I haven't really had any problems with that until recently - the machine started locking up on wakeup. This meant that the beachball of doom would start and each program would gradually in turn become unresponsive. Shutdown command wouldn't work and would time out, force quit wouldn't open, and although I could move the mouse around and sometimes switch between programs, they didn't work and the only cure was to hold the power button until it switched off.
This has also started happening just when the computer has been on for a certain amount of time *without sleeping*. For example, if I watch an episode of a tv show, by the end of it the video is still running but all of the other programs are locked up - clicking out of VLC causes the beachball of doom. This also happens in other programs - it's even happened as I've been writing this, and the only remedy seems to be a hard restart.
The problem doesn't seem to occur in windows. In OSX I have 'put hard drives to sleep' turned off, and TRIM enabled. I also disables the sudden movement sensor. I have also reset the SMC.
Does anyone know of a remedy short of a full reinstall of Mountain Lion?
Oh and I used samsung magician in windows to update the firmware of the drive. It reports that the drive should be fine.
Thanks very much for any help anyone can give me with this!

anything is possible - corrupt files - corrupt drivers - it could be anything.
try doing a nvram/pram reset and see if that sorts it out.
i have ssd installed in all my Macbook/Macbook Pro and have never had any issues.
Then again, I don't have windows installed in any of them.
hopefully the nvram/pram reset sorts it out for you.
once you've done that reset - go back to system preferences - startup disk and select your ssd as the startup drive again - then restart it again.

Late 2011 Macbook Pro iPhoto 9.2.2 Graphical Glitch

Please see the following video I have posted on youtube. The problem is happening on the late 2011 13"inch Macbook Pro with intel 3000 HD graphics. The problem is limited to iPhoto window. Is it a faulty GPU? or a Software problem?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9m1FD6MYs0&feature=youtu.be
Any feedback will be welcomed.
Thanks

If anyone has the same setup. Then I would love to know if you have the same problem. I have included the steps that recreate the problem. I have sent a bug report to Apple about this, but I am still not sure if this is a hardware issue or a software one.
I believe this glitch is specific to the Intel 3000 HD graphics card, as I am unable to replicate the problem on a Mid-2009 Macbook Pro or a Late 2009 iMac.
My Setup:
A) Late 2011 Macbook Pro 2.4Ghz with Intel 3000 HD graphics.
B) iPod touch 4th Gen 8GB, Original iPad 16GB, SDHC 4Gb Card
I have been able to replicate 3 times out of 5 this glitch by following these steps.
1) Connect your iPod touch or iPad or SDHC card to your Macbook Pro.
2) Wait for iPhoto to launch.
3)Once iPhoto is launched. Select iPhoto from the Menu bar and click EXIT iphoto.
4) Relaunch iPhoto since your iPod touch or iPad or SDHC card is still connected, iPhoto will show you device photos first. Deselect that by:-
5) Clicking on Photos option under Library and then hovering mouse over your Photos. The glitch should show up.
6) Quit iPhoto
7) Relaunch iPhoto
8) Deselect Device photos by clicking on Photos under Library
9) Hover mouse over Library Photos. The glitch should be still present.

Late 2011 Macbook Pro Restarts When Power Connected

I have a late 2011 Macbook Pro, 2.2 GHz with 8GB Ram with OS X 10.8.2 and a series of unfortunate events.
When I connect the magsafe adapter to the computer, after it has been shut down completely overnight, with the lid closed, the Macbook attempts to restart. The restart fails beause the lid is closed but leaves my Macbook in an unstable state. Unless I do a PRAM reset whenever this happens, I will have at least one random shutdown, usually within the first half hour of use after the computer restarts itself. I have also reset the SMC controller, checked the hard drive for errors and tested the memory. I have been careful to make sure that the computer shuts all of the way down before closing the lid and disconnecting power. As far as I can tell at this point, starting the computer on battery, and subsequently connecting the magsafe adapter, does not cause any problems.
I never saw this behavior until I installed Mountain Lion.

Run an Apple hardware test and see if that picks up any problems. If this phenomenon is consistently repeatable, I recommend taking it to a repair facility for a diagnosis. This clearly is not normal operation. I hope that you might be still in the warrantee period.
Ciao.

13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the prob

My daughter's 13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen (null sign displays) after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. I reinstalled Yosemite on the MBP HD, but it still hangs in mid install. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the problem? I'd happily put 8 GB in if it seems probable that would solve the problem. I've tried all the suggested procedures that I've seen posted here. Disk Utility, and my older version of DiskWarrior indicate the HD is OK. I have DiskWarrior 5 on order.

Boot the MBP with the OPTION key down. If successful, you should see two HDD icons, Select the recovery partition (on the right).
From the 4 option menu select Disk Utility.
Run Disk Utility>First Aid, Verify and Repair.
If the disk cannot be repaired, it will have to be replaced.
Ciao.

How can I install Mavericks on a gifted 2011 MacBook Pro?

My brother gifted me his late 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X Lion.
I booted with command+r, launched the Disk Utility, and erased the disk. I closed Disk Utility and selected "Reinstall Mac OS X." The machine tells me that it needs to verify my computer's eligibility before it will download and restore Mac OS X, presumably because Lion was not free like Mavericks. It then fails and says that it could not find installation information for the machine.
Would it be possible for me to download the Mavericks install on an external hard drive, plug the external drive into the machine, and just install Mavericks using my Apple ID? If so, what would be the steps to do this?
Thanks

Also, where on my machine does a full Mavericks install image download to when I download it from the App Store?

OS 10.7.5 pinwheels Late 2011 Macbook Pro

I am using a late 2011 MacBook Pro and I am getting recurrent pinwheels no matter what I do. Even booting into safe mode, I get them but it usually takes a little while of normal use until they happen. At first I thought it was Chrome, but after I started using Safari the behavior continued. In the console, this sometimes happens right before the pinwheels start:

1/10/13 5:38:16.000 PM kernel: IOSurface: buffer allocation size is zero

I remove the istat widget and the excessive fan speeds ceased. However, the machine will still become unresponsive and begin pinwheeling after a random amount of time, never less than 10 minutes. I have run hardware tests and there does not appear to be anything wrong with the logic board or the RAM. I do have an SSD installed but over one-third of the drive is free space.
I have had the activity monitor open when this happens, but I cannot tell what process(es) are using the system resources because it becomes unresponsive too. I have tried updating to Mountain Lion, but I can't get it downloaded in full before the machine pinwheels again. I tried doing a Lion Internet Recovery, but I only got 10-15% done before it errored out and told me that it couldn't finish the download. After that, I could attempt to restart the installation, but then it did not see the SSD at all. I no longer have the original HDD to test the unit, but it appears that the SSD is the problem. I am looking for help in any other areas before I install a new piece of hardware.
