Installing a downloaded version of windows 7?

I downloaded windows 7 from my college for free. How do I install it without a burned disk. I downloaded the windows support and went through all the steps until I had to insert the windows disk.

If this is on a Standard MBP with a DVD drive inside the case the only way to install Win 7 is from a DVD disc. Apple has limited all Mac's of this type to only install Windows from the Internal DVD drive. It can not be installed from an ISO or from a USB thumb drive. Must be from DVD disc.

TS2753 i have removed iTunes and re-installed the latest version for Windows XP and still can't access the iTunes store; is there any way to get access to the iTunes store again?

I am unable to access the iTunes store for the last two months, I've tried removing the software and re-installing the latest version for Windows XP and still no access; is there a solution that would allow me to get access again?

If you haven't got a backup copy and if it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download (there is no guarantee that they will) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Lightroom 3 install from downloaded version thru Adobe Store

I just bought a MacBook Pro for photo editing. I have the original disk for LR2 which I had installed on a Windows machine; I purchased the LR3 upgrade download from Adobe Store to also run on that Windows machine. This downloaded file is saved on that Windows computer as a .exe file.
When I tried to use it on the new Mac, the Mac OS doesn't recognize it.
I went to the Adobe store to download it again, maybe in Mac version, but the "Win/Mac" English version shows "not applicable"
However, "Mac multiple languages looks like it can be downloaded.
Do I need to install LR2 from the original disk, then down load the upgrade while on the Mac?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
just to the side of this forum thread is a link that answered my question. Basically, on your Mac, go to the Adobe Store and download the full trial version of LR3 for Mac. It shows up as a dmg file. Install it and you put in your SN for your previously purchased LR3 upgrade; another box will then appear asking for your original LR purchase SN, since this is an upgrade. Put those numbers in and BAM! all done. Worked for me!
Thanks for those that responded with help.

Can I install an OEM version of Windows 7 on my Mac?

I am completely unfamiliar with windows terminology. I ordered a copy of Windows 7 64-bit and when it came it said OEM on it and had all these warnings that it had to be preinstalled on a computer and I assumed it was like the software that comes with a Mac that you can only install on that one machine. I returned it unopened because I was afraid it wouldn't work. Since then I've read on these boards that OEM is a system builder, and it's cheaper, which is why I got it, and can only be used on one machine. But it sounds like I could install it on one Mac. I don't really care about installing it on more than one machine. So my question is, is that correct? can I install an OEM version of Windows 7 on one Mac? I wanted to check, because although it's cheaper, it's still almost $100 and I didn't want to waste that if I opened it and it didn't work. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I plan to use parallels by the way, but I am posting on this board because it was suggested that you folks know the most about windows.

Installing a downloaded version of photoshop elements 8 for the mac

Can someone please help me. I downloaded version 8 of photoshop elements for the mac (a paid version and not the trial). When i click on the set-up icon and go through all the required information (i.e., serial number, etc.), the screen goes to checking the system and finally to "preparing to install". It sits there and does nothing. I have waited for hours but it just says "preapring to install". I have downloaded the app a couple of times. I rebooted a couple of times. I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.1 I also have the earlier version of Photoshop Elements, version 6. Can someone help please. I have holding now for 73 minutes on Adobe's support line.

Not to sound completely stupid but does this require me to download elements
again but under the new admin user?

Try creating a new admin user (system prefs>user accounts) and using that
for the install.

My situation may be different from yours since all mu music is ripped from cd's not bought from iTunes, but I would think the premise is the same.
Doesn't matter what is in your library.
When I moved computers I literally dragged and dropped the music where I wanted it to be. THen when I opened iTunes I imported the files back into iTUnes
This creates a new library with all the same items but you lose a lot of info: Ratings, comments, date added, custom EQ, playlists, etc.
If you simply copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder, it is the exact same library, not a new library. No info is lost.

Can't update to newest version. Keep getting message update failed. When I try to install the downloaded version get message I don't have permissions. What's up with that?

Can't install latest version of Firefox. Continue to get message "update failed". When I try to install a downloaded version get message that I don't have the proper permissions. What' up with that?

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Is it better to install Windows 8 via Boot Camp than risk installing an unstable version of Windows 8.1, which isn't yet supported?

Apologies for asking this question as I note a number of similar questions have been asked. However, having read many answers on here and trawled the net I'm still not sure what the right answer is...
The Boot Camp 5 FAQs state that Windows 8.1 is not yet supported: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5639
Despite this, I have noticed that some users have installed 8.1 with varying success and in some cases have needed to use workarounds.
I've not partitioned a drive before and want to take the most straightforward route to installing Windows on my Mac.
This leads me to believe that I should buy Windows 8 now, wait for Boot Camp to be updated in the near future and then update to 8.1 (or later).
Is this correct?

Thanks Bob,
Would you install the OEM system builder version or the full retail version of Windows 8?
My understanding is that the OEM version is cheaper and can still be registered for personal use, but doesn't come with the full documentation or helpdesk support from Windows which concerns me a ittle.

Im running a mac air with osx 10.9.2 and i tried installing a legal version of windows 7 OEM but it tells me that support drivers are missing so i have to cancel installation and do the option cmd p r to get it to boot.

when i use boot campcamp it gets to installing then it tells me that support files are missing. how can i install w7 in boot camp on a make air osx 10.9.2 i am using a iso win 7 sp1 image and the copy is legal. it get stuck on saying it cant find support drivers. I dont like windows 8 and would rather use w7 (i dont like windows at all but need it for using VB for a class at school) can i install a linux version like scientific instead of windows ? if i can ill just buy a cheap PC to use VB on

i have a usb super drive can i use that instead ? i dont have another usb stick and the one i have has 27G of data on it and tranfering it takes time. I can buy one if thats the only way to do it on a mac air but i figure i have the super drive and could put the w7 support files on it and i have the w7 on disk and iso img saved on the mac.
BTW
Thank you for helping me. I know it can be a pain in the butt helping people when the tasks seems so straight forward. I really appriciate your time

[HELP] Can I install a new version of Windows 7 on my Lenovo G550?? (+ One Key Rescue???????)

I bought a Lenovo G550 with 4GB DDR3, T4300, 320Gb. It came with Windows 7 BASIC installed and I'd like to install a version of Windows 7 Professional I have here. I want to do a clean install!
Well, when I started the installation, the disks were partitioned as follows:
1. 200 Mb - System;
2. 233 GB - Hard c: \ (where I believe that Windows 7 Basic is installed)
3. 30.2 GB - Lenovo (here are the drivers, totaling 800MB used!)
4. LENOVO_PART - 14.8GB [OEM] (is a hidden partition! Probably the One Key Rescue. He says CAN NOT INSTALL, OEM is because, for the MANUFACTURER)
The question is: if I delete the first 3 partitions, leaving only the hidden partition (Lenovo_PART-14.8Gb) and install Windows 7 Professional, will work?? If later I want to restore the system using the discs created by One Key Rescue, will work too? That will give an error?
PLEASE HELP! Windows 7 BASIC sucks!
(Thanks to google for the english translation)

OK - I was under the impression that you had a brand new machine and did not have to restore any data stored already. If it were me - I would back up all of my data - not with True Image - but just back it up. Then I would do a clean install of Windows 7 (getting rid of all those partitions) and either create one or two.   I just use one and then do regular images wtih Acronis True Image - but you could create two - one for the OS and applications and another for all your data directories.
I don't know how you would do a new install while trying to create the partitions exactly the way Lenovo has them when the machine is delivered. (I don't think Lenovo does either) So - I would make it simple and just get rid of them all after your data is backed up.   If you have new applications loaded, I would just install them again. Not the most convenient but in the long run you will have an easier system to back up and manage.
I'm not a fan of Lenovo's instant restore proceedure, because A: it is complicatied, and B: it doesn't buy you anything if you crash your hard drive anyway. It is really only good if you A: do regular backups with the instant restore, and B: either have a virus or corrupt some data and need to use it. You can do the same thing by using the Microsoft system restore point proceedure. So - to me it is just a gimick and makes your drive a mess wtih hidden partitions, etc.
That would be my approach. I would NOT try to backup your current configuraton with Acronis before installing a new OS. It can be done - but I think it will be very messy. A much better approach would be just to delete all of those partitions with the Windows 7 install proceedure - then create just one or two new partitions as you install the new OS. Then start using Acronis to do regular images on your drive. You can also do incrementals so it only takes a couple of minutes each day.
Installing Windows 7 is a piece of cake as it finds all the drivers for you. Just make sure you have it connected to an ethernet cable. Then install your applications and then load your data back. Very straigtforward.
The advantages you will get will be: A: You will get use of your entire hard drive space. B: It will be much easier to manage and back up. C: Using Acronis to backup your drive will be simple D: If you ever lose data you can simply use Acronis to restore the directory or data file, or E: If you lose your entire hard drive you simply get a new one and then restore from the Acronis CD and point it to your last backup image.
I hope this helps. Good luck.

Why does Bootcamp install 32-bit version of Windows 7?

I am trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit) via Bootcamp on my mid-2011 Mac Mini Server. The Windows install succeeds but I am unable to install the Windows support files. When I try to run the Setup program in the Bootcamp directory, Windows won't run the file and says that the file is incompatible with the OS.
It turns out that Windows 7 is reporting that it's a 32-bit OS and, apparently, the Bootcamp support files are for the 64-bit version of the OS.
Where have I gone wrong?
Thanks,
JZ

This is a case of me being ...well let's say 'inattentive.' The Windows disk I was using for the install was indeed 32-bit. I forgot that I have 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Windows 7 and I installed the incorrect version.
Thanks for the reply, Rudegar.
