    There is no Lion DVD. Start Boot Camp Assistant and select the menu item to download the Windows Support Software.
    Read and follow the Boot Camp Installation Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf

    Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

    assuming it is an optical mouse (no ball etc.) then there aren't any moving parts involve in the motion detection
    so there's a faulty component or connection
    from what you describe it could be just a loose/broken connection, so if you know someone familiar with electronics see if they can open it up and have a look

  • I installed iTunes 10.5.3.3 and now my DVD player won't work.

    I installed iTunes 10.5.3.3 and now my DVD player won't work and has this error:
    This device cannot start. (Code 10)
    Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.
    Any ideas why iTunes renders my DVD drive unusable?  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and when reinstalling I had my device manager open and saw during the installation how my DVD player went from accessible to not being able to start.
    Why is this happening? 
    Here is my computer information:
    Dell
    Latitude D630
    Intel Core  Duo CPU T770 @2.40 Hz
    4.00 GB RAM
    32-bit Operating System
    Thank you,
    Kelly

    There's a few different possibilities with a code 10, Kelly. To narrow in on the likeliest culprits it would help to have a closer look at your system.
    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".
    When you get through to the final screen:

    Hi,
    Here's one option you could try as it will give a good indication whether there is a hardware problem with the optical drive itself. 
    Create a bootable Ubuntu CD
    The Ubuntu CD you create should run as you boot the notebook ( as should your Recovery Discs ) , so if this will not run, the problem is almost certainly a Hardware issue with the DVD drive or the sata controller.
    On another PC, follow the procedure on the link below to create a bootable Ubuntu CD and follow the steps in Part 3 to 'Try it' to see if your noteboo will run this OS from the CD.  The 'try it' option does not need to install on the Hard Drive, it just runs from the CD.
    http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
    Let me know if this will run.

  • Cannot get my dvd player to work now after several attempts of finally upgrading to Windows 8.1.

      About the same time my antivirus software was about to expire.   Therefore, I purchased the Trend Micro DirectPass online AND a disc for added measures.  Now I cannot get the computer to accept the antivirus software and cannot get the dvd player to even work when loading the cd that I purchased for this.  Please help!  

    Yes I did remove the old antivirus software.  Yes.  It was Norton originally.  Then purchased Trend Micro Titanium 2013.  Removed that as well.  No the driver does not show up in "this PC"  The reason being is after I first encountered this problem I looked for several solutions, one of which suggested uninstalling that driver.  That is what I did.  Unfortunately, before I could get to the next step of the so-called solution, it was not an option on my pc.  And yes, the disk does spin up and seem to run, but of course nothing comes up.  
    By the way, I have HP 2000 Notebook PC; 64-bit; Vision AMD; Windows 8 (originally installed).  If you need anymore info, please let me know and thank you for your quick response thus far.  

  • How to install software on an imac that doesn't have DVD player built in?

    I just got my daughter an imac G3 running OS 10.4.11. I went to install iwork onto the computer, and it spit the disc out. i then realized the computer does not have a DVD player built in. How do I install newer software? It runs and plays CD fine. Any help?

    Since the other Mac is an eMac, it's a FireWire (400) cable, also called 6-pin to 6-pin. OWC has it.
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/1394A66036/
    I'm not sure if Radio Shack has it. Look for something like the above.
    An eMac may be one of the models where the optical drive is not accessible over FireWire Target Disk Mode. If the hard drive and optical drive are on the same IDE bus, only the one that is set as Master (usually the hard drive) is available to the other Mac.
    So give it a try. If it does not work (eMac's optical drive not accessible from the iMac), you will have to reverse the roles of the two Macs. Start up the iMac in FireWire Target Disk Mode. Connect it to the eMac that is started up normally. Set the eMac to start up from the iMac's hard drive in System Preferences +Startup Disk+ pane. If it's Tiger, your eMac should be able to start up from it. Restart. Insert the software disc and let the eMac install the software onto the iMac's hard drive. After installation completes, change the eMac's startup disk setting back, shut down the eMac, disconnect the FireWire cable, and restart the iMac normally.
    Note: Unless you purchased the family license for iWork, it should only be installed on one Mac at a time.

    I have never had any problems with my Mac when I was using my old system (maybe.. mountail lion? I fogot), however, once I installed the free Maverick upgrade, my DVD drive quit working.  I can still play CD's but no DVD's.

    Hello HudsonT,
    Thank you for providing all the information about what is going on with your optical drive on your iMac.
    I recommend resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) on your iMac for the issue you described:
    Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or Intel-based Xserve
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    You can find the full article here:

    If you are still having trouble with playing DVDs after that step, I recommend the following article:

  • Will my DVD player still work after I install 10.5?

    Hi, all. This is what I found for requirement for 10.5 -- "DVD Player requires a 1.8GHz PowerPC G5 or faster processor for improved de-interlacing." Does that mean once I install Leopard 10.5 that my DVD player will not work with my G4 machine?

    Does that mean once I install Leopard 10.5 that my DVD player will not work with my G4 machine?
