Installing Lightroom 4 on Macbook Pro with OS updated to 10.6.8

I updated the OS to 10.6.8 but Lightroom 4 will still not install from CD. I have previously installed successfully on Windows laptop.

  • How to install Windows 8 on Macbook pro with retina display ?

    Hi - How to install Windows 8 on Macbook pro with retina display ?
    I am pretty new to the apple world. Tried doing it through bootcamp but did not success.
    I am not interested to install it through Parallels or Fusion. Plz guide.
    Thanks !

    OK, use Windows 8 in Bootcamp. Be aware that there are no Bootcamp drivers for Windows 8 yet. So you may experiance not only delays but display problems, freezing, crashes and other problems.
    Here is the Bootcamp forum. Make sure you read all the posts from people experiencing Windows 8 problems with Bootcamp. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

  • How to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    how to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    There's not much sense in purchasing a Mac to run only Windows on it.  Keep in mind that drivers for Windows are a secondary concern for Apple.  While Windows will typicall run fine, things like power managment are not optimized under Windows (you'll get less time on battery while running Windows).  You will also not be able to install firmware updates.  Firmware updates might be necessary whether you run Windows or OS X as they are updates to the code in your hardware and are not OS-specific.  You must be running OS X in order to install a firmware update.  You can do this even if you boot off of an external drive with OS X installed on it.  At the very least, you should keep just a small partition for OS X on your internal drive. 

  • Install Windows 8 on macbook pro with external dvd drive

    Purchase new superdrive, takes 2-3 weeks for shipping at my city.
    It can't be done. If your computer has an internal optical drive, working or not, that is the drive you must use. Only computers such as the Macbook Pro Retina/Macbook Air that have no internal optical drive can install Windows from an external drive.

    The answer has not changed since your last post here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3230576?tstart=0
    There are no XP or Vista drivers for the new Apple computer hardware. Apple stopped XP and Vista support. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4410.

  • How do I install iWork disk on MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina Display and would like to install iWork on it. I do not have the device needed to use disks on this laptop as it doesn't have an optical drive. Is there any way I could download some sort of software and use a key to identify my disk? Or something along those lines because I'm sure apple would have thought that this problem would occur.
    Thanks

    That's why Apple no longer sells disks. All its software is now available on the App Store. So you can either purchase/download the iWork components from there, or, if you have access to another Mac with an optical drive, share the DVD from that across the network (System Preferences - Sharing - turn CD/DVD sharing on) and install that way.

  • Installing iLife '11 on MacBook Pro with no Disc Drive

    I bought a 2nd hand late 2012 Macbook Pro with Retina Screen. I reinstalled from a Time Machine back up. This laptop should have come with iLife '11 but since it has no superdrive it didn't come on a DVD with the laptop, so how do I get iLife '11 without just buying it off the app store?

    If it's second hand then it cannot come with OS X, iWork, or iLife because they are all attached to the Apple ID and password of the seller. If you want iLife you will have to purchase your own copy from the App Store or already own your own copy of iLife.
    If the seller was smart enough to remove the computer from the list of registered devices at Apple, then you may be able to re-register it under your name which would enable you to install iLife without having to purchase it. If you have used iLife on your other computer, then you can re-download it freely for this computer.

    Windows 7

    Windows 7
    Windows 8 is only beta, but can be run in VirtualBox
    Only Windows 7 is supported by Apple in Bootcamp at this time, however you can install Windows 8 Beta into virtual machine software.

  • Trying to install Win 7 on MacBook Pro with OSx 10.9.3 and computer does not recognize install dvd

    I'm using a 2009 MacBook Pro running Mavericks 10.9.3 and I am trying to install Win 7 using BootCamp 5. I've been able to install BootCamp before using the original Win7 install dvd on this computer but ever since I updated it (not sure how many time, its been a year or so since I last used BootCamp) and started using BootCamp 5 its been giving me problems reading the DvD. I know my internal DvD reader works because I've imported music recently but whenever I get into the very first step of BootCamp 5 (Download Support and Install Windows option screen) I click next with only install windows option checked and it tells me to wait for the DvD to be recognized when its already in. However it does come up with the option later to open with/eject the "blank DvD" which is the Win install DvD. Any ideas on how to get around this issue?

         a.  Downloading CS5 from Adobe.com requires pre-installing Adobe Download Assistant. 
         b.  Adobe Download Assistant can be downloaded but cannot be installed because it requires pre-installing Adobe AIR. 
         c.  Adobe AIR can be downloaded but won't install.  Sometimes it issues error msg saying it requires most recent version of Adobe AIR, other times there is no screen activity after attempting to install from <AdobeAir.dmg>.
    2.  There is no option to turn off automatic graphics switching in Energy Saver System Preferences on this computer, so that suggested solution does not work.
    3.   Turning off (unchecking) "Automatically reduce brightness before display goes to sleep" has no effect — still unable to install AIR.
    This is a nightmare.  The reason I bought this computer rather than a less expensive model was to run Lightroom (which did install OK) and Photoshop CS5.  HELP!
    Robert
    My suggestion would be to reinstall Lion from zero. No update.
    I did that, and now I can install / uninstall Air without problems.
    The installation takes about 20 minutes...

  • I can't install Mavericks on a Macbook pro with Bootcamp

    Hi all,
    I tried to upgrade my MacBook pro which was running Lion and Windows 7 installed with Bootcamp, with Mavericks. I ran the installation program from within OS X Lion and after a while, it said that Mavericks cannot be installed because of a bootcamp partition on the disk. Did someone had similar troubles to install Mavericks with a bootcamp partition ?
    Thanks,
    Alan.

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • Installing Tiger into new Macbook Pro with Leopard

    I bought a new MBP with 10.5.2 leop. installed but i need to revert to Tiger. I cant seem to get the Tiger retail disk to install and tech support is baffled too. To make matters worse, according to my serial #, they say my MBP shipped with Tiger so theres no reason why it should not be installing. Also, my Tiger install disc says it can be installed on PPC, G3 G4 G5... im using intel. BUT, applecare says that some G5's were intel so the disc shold still be installing. Anyone have any ideas how I can get this to work? And if their records show it shipped with Tiger, how did leopard get on it? I called the apple store and they say they dont open the boxes.

    And if their records show it shipped with Tiger, how did leopard get on it?
    I can conceive of this improbable course of events:
    1. Apple shipped some Macs with drop-in discs for installing for Leopard in addition to Tiger installers.
    2. Passing through security entering the U.S. from the manufacturer's country, the box was opened to check for dangerous articles, and repackaged, and they forgot to reseal it with the proper discs.
    If this improbable set of events did happen, then the problem resides strictly with the shipping from the manufacturer's site, and the place you purchased it from needs to put in for a shipping claim.

  • Unable to install Windows 7 on MacBook Pro with Retina

    Hi,
    After trying to install via Bootcamp, I get this problem:
    Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu.
    Any ideas? I've been Googling for an answer but found nothing.

    Found the problem. I didn't create the install USB from Bootcamp.

  • I am trying to install windows 7 to my Macbook pro with bootcamp but every time I open bootcamp I am only able to check the first two boxes but not the third one saying "install or remove Windows 7", any solutions ?

    Hi, I am trying to install Windows on my MacBook Pro with bootcamp. Every time I open bootcamp I am only able to check the first two boxes but not the third one saying "install or remove Windows 7". I did this before using the same computer and the same hard drive so I am not sure why this is happening now but did´t happen then. Any solutions ?

    Was your Bootcamp info.plist manipulated to change any options?
