Ports aren't working in Windows 7 even with bootcamp drivers

I installed bootcamp with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and got the bootcamp drivers from Apple and installed them, but none of my ports work except for the disk drive, magsafe, ethernet, and headphone jacks however. Firewire, and USB ports do not work, and I have no clue about the Thunderbolt or SD card slot but those don't matter.
Can someone please link me to correct drivers to fix the issue or tell me what will fix it?

I tried that first and it blue screened twice before it actually installed. It got most things working like the volume and gesture support for the trackpad but the issue is still occurring. If you can tell me which driver specifically goes to the USB ports that's in the bootcamp folder then I can assign it to that.

Wifi not working under windows 8.1 with Bootcamp

Hi, I have installed windows 8.1 under bootcamp. it seems to work fine however the wifi connaction is not existing under windows. therefore i can only connect via ethernet. Anyone an idea how to solve it? Thx

Hey there,
I don't know if it's still interesting for you, but I've had the exact same issues. The only solution, as far as there is no official change from Apple, you can install Windows 8.0 via Bootcamp with official drivers for Bootcamp (wifi works great) and then install the upgrade to 8.1 as Windows still uses the former installed drivers from Win 8 on 8.1 as well.
Hope that helped, 8.1 runs even better on my MB Air than Mac OS 10.9 :/

Both my usb ports aren't working, Please help!

I bought a 500gb external hard drive that is usb powered. it was working fine a week ago but now i get a message saying a device draws to much power, therefore all my usb ports aren't working for anything any more. Not even a simple wireless mouse. I am using a macbook pro late 2011. also.....when i use the usb port closest to the charging port, the lights on he external hard drive turn on (yet i still get the message). When i use the other usb port, no lights turn on at all. does this mean one of them is just ruined completley??.
Thanks,

It actually did. After I uninstalled java and restarted my computer for the fifth time, the usb ports actually responded! I re installed java and the problem was fixed.

TS3048 Bluetooth and USB ports aren't working can't connect mouse or keyboard.

Bluetooth and USB ports aren't working, so am unable to use Imac past turning it on. There's no way to connect mouse or keyboard, it started right after a software update for Maverick (OS X bash Update 1.0 – OS X Mavericks), bluetooth symbol not showing in the task bar at all.

Hi SBrwn,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The symptom you're describing can be frustrating to troubleshoot as our options are limited. I do suggest resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) if you have not already. This step can help you regain use of USB and Bluetooth.
Follow these steps to reset the SMC on your iMac:
Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or Intel-based Xserve
Shut down the computer. [by holding down the power button]
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 these steps and more information at this link:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
All the best,
Jeremy

USB Ports Aren't Working

I have a HP pavilion g series laptop. I'm not sure what it is or anything, that's all I know about it.
But anyway, my USB ports aren't working.
I tried plugging in my mouse and i tried plugging in my xbox 360 controller, the lights come on for a few seconds on both of them, but then they went off and my computer won't pick them up.
What do I do to fix it this problem?

Try to go into device manager and see if you have any yellow !s or red triangles near the usb ports. Remove all the usb ports and hubs and reboot the machine. The drivers should reload automatically. Do the hard reset by removing the battery, unplugging the power adaptor, holding in the power button for a full minute, putting the battery and power adaptor back in and try it again.

How to eliminate windows partition created with bootcamp

Instrucdtions for how to eliminate a windows partition created with bootcamp. thanks

Go back and reread and open the application you used.
though most Mac Pro owners choose to dedicate a drive to Windows.
Even Disk Utility will remove and then stretch the adjoining partiton it is best to use Boot Camp Assistant.
Best place to ask, Boot Camp forum, of course.

How can I get a better driver for my 1394b Hostcontroller in my Macbook pro 2010 to solve the problem, that it is too slow under Windows 7 installed with bootcamp ?

WIndows can't find a better one than the installed LSI Conformed 1394 Hostcontroller

Read and follow the Bootcamp Installation instructions that you were offered to view when you ran Bootcamp Assistant.
Run Bootcamp Assistant again and select the option to download the Bootcamp Support software. Follow the instructions. Then boot into Windows and install the Windows Support software you downloaded and saved.

Can I install Windows XP SP1 with Bootcamp on my new Mac Mini 2011 i7 ?

Can I install Windows XP SP1 with Bootcamp on my new Mac Mini 2011 i7 ?

Baiscally if your Mini came with Lion Pre-installed new then No you can't use XP.
The Lion installed computers no longer support XP OR Vista via Apple's Boot Camp.
For one thing Apple only supported XP with SP2 in order to install it on pre Lion computers.
If the Mini had come pre-installed new with say 10.6 then you could have installed XP and still of been able to upgrade to Lion without any issues as you already have the drivers for XP installed. Lion only has the drivers for W7.

Can i download windows to install with bootcamp

can i download windows to install with bootcamp or do i have to buy a physical CD to get windows on a macbook pro?

As your MBP has an optical drive you must install from a disc, not an iso on a stick. The previous advice is incorrect.
Purchase the version of Windows you want on a disk. If you already bought an iso burn it to a disc.

USB ports don't work after resuming from standby with Windows 8 on X230 tablet

I have just done a clean install of Windows 8 on my X230 tablet. Before installing Windows 8 I installed the most recent BIOS for this machine (version 2.50). After installing Windows 8 I installed System Update from the Lenovo Website and downloaded all the recommended drivers and other files. I've also installed all the latest Windows 8 updates.
Here are the symptoms of my problem: After resuming from standby/sleep mode, my USB ports do not work. My computer has two USB 3.0 ports and one USB 2.0 ports. All exhibit the same behavior. After resuming from standby mode I have tried inserting both my mouse and a USB thumbdrive, but neither are recognized. After restarting Windows, the USB ports work again... until I resume from standby mode again.
I hope there is a solution to this issue. It is very frustrating.

Thanks for the suggestion about tweaking the "Allow this computer to turn off this device" feature. I un-checked that box for every entry I could find under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" in the Devide Manager. Unfortunately, the same symptoms of my problem persisted.
I went back and looked at the README file associated with the BIOS 2.50 download on Lenvo's support site. At the bottom of the file it gives a "Summary of Changes". Under version 2.03 of the BIOS (the version just before version 2.50), it says:
- (Fix) Fixed an issue where USB device might not detected when system resume from sleep mode.
This indicates that Lenovo support was already aware of such issues. The problem was intended to be fixed in version 2.03 of the BIOS. However, the issue persists on my machine, even with the latest BIOS.
Hopefully someone from Lenovo can comment here.

All windows/tabs aren't opening from last session, even with setting checked. What's wrong?

For a while now in Safari, if I have to close out the browser or restart my Mac for some reason, my previous tabs in Safari are not loading when I re-open Safari. I went online this week and did a change in Settings to where it would open up the option again in Safari to allow me to check "Reopen windows from last session", however, even with this selected, it did not re-open my tabs just now. This is such an unnecessary frustration and hassle. Can anyone please help?
Oh, and the "Reopen last closed session" and "Reopen all windows from last session" is grayed out and unelectable if I try to bring them back that way in History.

Thank you Linc! I did do what you suggested, and it did work.
I noticed though (because I tried to close/re-open Safari several times to make sure it would consistently load my previous pages, that when I close the window but not the program) that I can "restore my previous session" or "last closed session" under the History menu if I merely close the window, but not the app/program although it doesn't automatically reload them; but, if I close the whole Safari app/program, when I re-open Safari it does reload all of my pages. I guess I'm writing that in case it helps someone else, but it can be confusing, and may be where my issue originally started.
Okay, another thing is, when I look in Safari preferences now (after your suggested changes), Safari doesn't give me the option of "Open new windows with previous session". Does that matter, I guess, if my previous pages/session are/is loading? It doesn't seem to make sense that that preference is missing in Safari now, but my pages reload. Just some musings. No rush to reply. I'm new to Mac, but I do like to understand how things work.
Thanks again!

Neither Flash Player nor Java working on Windows 8.1 with IE 11

I have a new sony laptop with Windows 8 and IE 11. I have upgraded to Windows 8.1. Neither Flash Player nor Java are working despite having made all the recommended settings. Adobe recommends upgrading to Flash Player 12.00.38, but I can seem to get it installed.
Whats wrong and how do I fix it?

Flash Player for IE in Windows 8 and 8.1 is embedded by Microsoft and you cannot update it here. It MUST be updated via Windows Update.
The fatc that Java isn't working as well leads me to believe you have other problems, but IE11 (comes with Windows 8.1) has been a "rolling train wreck" since the day it was released. Websites and pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Wireless Keyboard not working in Windows applications running thru Bootcamp

I have recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and installed XP and Office on Bootcamp. My wireless aluminium keyboard would not work in Pages or Numbers but worked in Safari and Mail etc. It also didn't work in Excel and Word.
I have fixed the Pages and Numbers problem by downloading updates but I can't find anything to allow me to get the keyboard working in Windows application.
Does anyone know of an upgrade to sort this or will I have to buy a wired keyboard to overcome the problem?
Thanks
Nick

In order to get bluetooth items paired in Windows boot camp you first have to find the bluetooth symbol at the bottom of the windows start page. Next click on it and pick show bluetooth items. Then try to add a new bluetooth item. When this bluetooth item shows up double click the icon for the item. At this time it should show a window at the top it says general and other. Pick other and a small box needs to be checked. When you check the box Windows will find the exact drivers for the exact bluetooth device. After that it should be paired and work properly.

I would like to know if Firefox 7 will work on Windows xp sp3, with AMD Athlon64 ?

I have a desk top that has the older version of firefox 3.6 on it and I would like to update and want to know if the ff 7 will work on my version of windows xp, sp3 with an AMD Athlonn64 instead of a Pentium4. I believe I have plenty of memory I believe.

I'm not sure about the graphics card driver, the pc I am referring to is 4 years old. Everything works great, but the ff 3.6 didn't configure right the last update and can't open my email.
Thanks for your reply!
