No sound in Windows after boot Camp install

New iMac 5K, have external speakers plugged in, here sound when windows starts, but then no more......control panel shows no issues???

1. Does sound work normally with internal and external speakers on the OS X side?
2. If there are no missing drivers, and the headphone outputs are being used, please ensure the digital output is off if using analog plugs. The built-in headphone is a combined analog/digital output (unless the Mac is from 2005-2006). Usually, it will show a red laser. in the headphone receptacle. Please see Troubleshooting issues with no audio from built-in speakers on Macs - Apple Support.
3. If you have HDMI or DP sound available, check if that works, even if the analog/optical is not working.

Retina (Late-2013) constantly losing Mac audio after Boot Camp install

Hi there,
I installed Boot Camp last night and I've been losing audio non-stop on Mavericks since then. I've had zero issues like this since I bought this Macintosh when it first came out last year. I'll add that audio works fine on Windows 8/Boot Camp.
Some threads suggest that a restart solves the issue. For me it doesn't. Some suggest killing CoreAudio, again this doesn't help. I've also reset PRAM to no avail. I haven't had audio for about 4 hours now, and it's driving me crazy as I typically listen to music all day.
MacBook Pro Retina 13"
2.8Ghz Intel Core i7

Any suggestions?
Cheers,
James

Anyone? This is still a constant problem

Problems with starting Windows after Boot Camp was installed on a Win-PC

Hi,
i have a very interesting problem for the MacComunity (haha -.-). The problem is: after I have installed Boot Camp from my Snow Leopard DVD on my Windows PC (not my iMac); I can not start the system. In the Boot Camp System where i can set the system to start with, there was only the Boot Camp System available (not Vista). However, the system installs some Vista-Updates and some Updates from Apple Software Update (iTunes 9.2, Quicktime 7, Safari 5, Airport 5, Boot Camp 3.1) on my PC.
Everything was all right but after I have restarted the System nothing happend. the System freezed when the boot-Screen (Intel Logo) appears. The Systemkeyboard was not detected. It only detects a n external apple Keyboard. There are some reactions when I press the keys, but the Monitory is frozen, anyway. What can I do?

Sounds like a lesson in there: don't wait to put OS X on an external drive that is usually off line.
Rush to a store or on-line and get a UPS of the 1500VA sort (APC RS would be nice, or SMART UPS 1000VA).
The directory of the drives could be corrupt.
I have all my equipment, modem, routers, the works, but we had a bad storm and one port on the router/modem is out (the one I used, the modem seems to be okay) and I am worried that the UPS's line filter for DSL in is also 'compromised.'
Storms and power outages can wRECK or cuase havoc.
It sounds like you need to map out bad sectors maybe (zero all in Disk Utility) perhaps. The directory, volume blocks, or even journal file, got scrambled. However, because no test can find it means - to me - it could be the "non user partitions" rather than OS X partition etc. Hence, zero the drive or just reformat it in full.
Why have you not ever with these outages, just continued to live w/o one? I wouldn't just shutdown, I would unplug if a storm approaches.
PS: SMC Reset button is under drive bay #4. Give it a 5-10 seconds depress.

Windows 7 - Blue screen of death after Boot Camp install

Hello! I have done some searches with no answers, so...
After installing Windows 7 from scratch I then install Boot Camp 3.0 which then leads to the Windows blue screen of death upon reboot. I then have to recover Windows to the previous state prior to installing Boot Camp.
Help!?

Most likely, Apple HFS read-only, which is AppleHFS.sys and AppleMNT.sys - rename those and see.
You might want to run chkdsk after all this to make sure there are no errors with the drive and file system.
Windows Explorer will not accept HFS+ filenames with special characters and will "green bar" and hang when it does, too.
The faulty HFS driver is a valid concern.
Rename AppleHFS.sys and AppleMNT.sys
By doing the following you will disable HFS mount / read mode on windows XP, Vista, 7.
Navigate to c:/windows/system32/drivers/AppleMNT.sys, rename the AppleMNT.sys file to something like AppleMNT_keep.sys or something of your likings.
The faulty HFS driver is a valid concern. It seems to happen on many systems.
You find it in Windows/system32/drivers/AppleHFS.sys
Renaming to AppleHFS_disabled.sys will avoid the blue screens until you have found another solution or Apple updates Bootcamp 3
After renaming both myself because they are no longer "*.sys" or something? they are gone. In my case AppleHFS prevented Windows Backup from running to end and was causing error "some files skipped" and while some might find reading convenient, I prefer Windows not have even read-only access.
You can probably do better with MacDrive, or probably Paragon's HFS driver, to read AND write if needed, to HFS from Windows.

How Can I Download 'Windows Support Software' after Boot Camp Install of XP?

I successfully ran Boot Camp and installed WinXP SP3 on my son's 2009 MBP, which is currently running OSX 10.6.8. We were prompted to download the Windows support software, and said 'yes', but it would not allow us to download anything.
Is there a website we could download the 'Windows support software' directly from?
As a result--I think this is due to lack of 'Windows support software'--we are unable to connect to our wireless network for internet while on the WinXP partition.
At this point he cannot locate the original disk that came with his MBP. I'm wondering if that original disk would even be appropriate, since his MBP came with 10.5 originally. He is on his 3d hard drive (Applecare!) and they loaded 10.6.8 this last time.
Thanks,
Greg

10.5 OEM or retail DVD is the best and maybe only place to get XP 2.x drivers to get you started so you can then update Boot Camp support drivers to 2.2.
Replacement OEM DVD from Apple - call - are probably $10-20.
There were Boot Camp 2.1 and 2.2 direct downloads, just not for the 2.0.x that you need first to get started. Weird method. Posting seems to antathema.
I deleted my old bookmarks but those drivers were found from support page:

Apple Store Refuses to Diagnose Hardware Issue after Boot Camp Installed

I previously reported an issue in the Boot Camp Beta forum, but figured I share this with other MBP users as well. After loading the updated firmware, running boot camp to partion my drive, I installed Windows XP Professional. During the install, the screen would go dark, and come back at irregular intervals, as if there was a video sync problem of something. I managed to get XP installed, and booted it and loaded the updated drives from the Boot Camp driver CD which I had earlier created. Subsequent attempt to use the XP installation result in a constantly blank screen, with only occational glitches, as if there is some activity coming out of the GPU, but it's not working correctly.
This is what led me to take my machine to my local (15 miles away) Apple Retail Store (Washington Sqaure, Tigard, Oregon), and attempt to show the problem to a "genius". HOWEVER... As soon as I mentioned "Boot Camp" and XP, they went into the whole "public beta, blah, blah, blah", "not supported", etc. I tried to explain that I was not reporting a SOFTWARE issue with Boot Camp, but rather a HARDWARE ISSUE which is exposed on my machine only after using BOOT CAMP to partition the hard drive, and then installing Windows XP. All I get was "Well, it works fine in OSX, and Boot Camp is Public Beta, so there's nothing we're going to do". Obviously, I'm livid. And, will pursuing any and all avenues to bring this problem to Apple Management attention. First it was Mark Pienpakdee the "genius" who tried to help me, and then I was further rebuked by Mark Macsurak, Assistant Manager. So, I'm left with broken hardware which won't work correctly running Windows, and no recourse until Boot Camp isn't "Public Beta". What a load of crap. I was so mad, I didn't even bother buying the extra AC adapter I was planning on picking up. ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was absolutly shocked that the "genius" didn't react with anything like "wow, what an interesting problem, let's see if we can diagnose it". He didn't even want to see me boot XP to show the problem, only wanted to see that OSX was working normally and send me on my way.
If you have had similar problem at the Washington Square store in Oregon, be sure to let them know by sending e-mail to [email protected], I know I will...
Eric

If you are going to send an e-mail you should send it to [email protected] However, nobody from Apple is going to send you a response. The Software is Beta which means it is not ready for Prime Time (Also that means that the drivers are beta too). Plus they say before you decide to install any of this in their write ups that they do not and will not provide any support for BootCamp and/or Windows. So they are right not to do anything if the computer works like it is supposed to under OS 10.4.6. Now they might take a look at somethings when OS 10.5 comes out if it has BootCamp in it. They may have something similiar in it, or it might be a perfected BootCamp. However, I doubt that they will ever provide any support for Windows. There has been some talk that Microsoft is looking into supporting Windows on the MAC. However, as far as I have heard no decision on that has come out as of yet.

IMac 27" Target DIsplay Mode + Answer to Windows 7 Boot Camp Install

First, I'd like to address the handful of complaints I've come across about installing Windows 7 via Boot Camp on the new 27"iMac.
The issue of the screen going blank when almost done has an easy albeit annoying answer. Simply connect the iMac to an external display, I used a small vga lcd with the Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter. When the iMac's screen goes black the external lcd will continue, and when Windows 7 starts up it will download the updated ATI drivers. From there alls well.
Second, my problem.
Target Display Mode is a great feature. It worked great when I first used it, and it works great now except for the fact that the Command+F2 button combination stopped working. I have to manually unplug my MacBook Pro in order to get my iMac's original screen up. At first Command+F2 would allow me to switch back and forth, and now it does nothing.
Any suggestions?

Well, the usual first things to try for a display-related issue are
Reset PRAM
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
and of that does not help, reset SMC
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543
which is basically unplugging the iMac from power and reconnecting it following the precise procedure.
Note: After resetting PRAM, you should go to System Preferences +Startup Disk+ pane to make sure your internal drive is selected (highlighted) as the startup disk.

Unresponsive keyboard Windows 7 Boot camp install

Im trying to install Windows 7 onto my mid 2010 MacBook and seem to hit every problem possible.
Now after I partitioned the hard drive and clicked continue, the "Windows is reading files" comes up and eventually an error occurs. "Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer" on the bottom of the screen I can "ENTER=Continue" or "ESC=Exit" but my keybod is unresponsive and I can't choose either option. Is there a way to restart and boot back to OS X? Please help!!

Ok, I'll try to install not using the boot camp procedure.
1) I attempted to boot directly from the Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit cd, and all the screen said was "Boot:" and it wouldn't take any input from the keyboard, numbers or letters.
2) I attemped to boot directly from the Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit cd, and it says "Windows cannot install to the selected location, error 0x80300024. When I attempt to wipe the hard drive from having booted the Windows 7 disc, it errs out with "Failed to create a new partition, error 0800040005"
3) Frustrated, I booted from an Ubuntu 12.04LTS CD to see if I could install that to the hard drive instead, and it just gives me a blank mauve screen.
Reminder, this is a 2006 Mac Pro. If I had a steady job maybe I'd upgrade to a 2008 Mac Pro, but there's not many IT jobs in northern Indiana.
Maybe I'll try installing Boot Camp again in a couple of days.

How do I get the latest drivers for windows 7 boot camp install?

I have a 24" mac early 2009. I had windows xp installed on a partition using an early edition of boot camp. I had to reformat my mac and so I purchased windows 7 home premium oem edition. When I try to install and copy boot camp drives to a 32 gb usb drive I get a message that Apple does not have drivers for that.

Windows 7 boot camp install on 2012 MacBook Pro with retina display

I'm having trouble installing Windows 7 in a boot camp partition on my MBP. When I select the boot camp partition and then format it, the partition is not recognized in the next step. Does any know a way around this? Thanks.

You should ask in the Boot camp forum where the Boot Camp gurus hang out. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

Windows 7 boot camp install failure

I recently lost my HP dual xeon Windows 7 workstation; the motherboard died. I then took the 1TB hard drive out of that pc and installed it in my Mac Pro. It won't boot from the Windows 7 x32 drive, so I backed up the data, and wiped the drive. Now I'm attempting to perform a Boot Camp installation, but even though I've reformatted the 1TB drive as NTFS, the Windows 7 install cd doesn't like the partition. I've even deleted the partition using the Windows 7 disc, but that didn't get it to start working either. Any suggestions? I'd really like to get a Windows environment back up and running because I'm working through some Windows certification material and running from VMWare Fusion is too slow.

No sound on Windows 7 Boot Camp

I've had this problem for a while now, I just ignored it in the past, now I'm really fed up. I've tried everything, downloading Realteck, burning BootCamp drivers onto the CD (I have a Lion which came with no disc), I tried playing around with the Sound in Control Pannel. Someone please help me!

Then google for Cirrus Logic Audio for Mac running Windows.

Mac Mini (early 2012) stuck in Windows 7 after Boot Camp install. Help please!

So today I installed Windows 7 using an .iso file on my Mac Mini and the Bootcamp assistant. It was successful as it installed Windows 7, but when it booted W7, there was no wifi. I know I need to apply the drivers, I didn't see the option using Bootcamp assistant the first time, but I saw that you can go back to OS X and relaunch Bootcamp assistant. So I tried to go back to OSX, but no matter what I tried (holding Option, holding X, trying to reset PRAM), nothing worked. I even tried using an Ethernet cable to connect to the Internet on Windows and download the driver package, but that didn't even work.
Does anyone have any guidance before I take it to see someone?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Try pressing Option key while your Mac is starting. When your Mac shows the bootable partitions, does the OS X partition appear? If not, maybe you removed it by mistake during Windows partitioning

Simple question. Will my Magic Mouse work in Windows 8 Boot Camp 5.1 (Mavericks)

I think my question says it all. My magic mouse is not working and will not pair with my Windows 8 Boot Camp install done from the Mavericks Boot Camp setup. Should it work? Does it not work? Thanks.

you don't mention what mac you have because I suspect that the bluetooth driver for windows only support 1 input at the time over bluetooth
my magic trackpad works fine with bluetooth but my bluetooth mice require being run as usb device it can't connect using bluetooth at all

Yosemite boot camp install on /separate/ drive?

i have an existing windows 7 boot camp install that resides on a drive in my 2006 mac pro with my LION OS.
i now have a 2012 mac pro.
should i install windows 7 with boot camp on a SEPARATE drive or can i put it on a partition on the same drive as yosemite?
thanks

OK. thank you.
so i /like/ the idea of having an internal CLONE of my OS in bay 1 on the drive in bay 2.
in the past i have set this to happen nightly and i use WinClone (thanks hatter) to create a BACKUP of the Boot Camp install of Windows 7 and i drop this backup on the DESKTOP. this way i have a BACKUP of Windows on my boot OS and i also have one on the CLONE.
just to confirm - no reason as far as you are concerned to change this?
