Vista Home installer disc not found after partitioning

I don't get an error message but the "installer disc could not be found" message comes up every time I click on Start Installation in Boot Camp and the disk ejects. I repartitioned and am up to date on 10.5.1. I tried setting the partition from 32 to 64 with a 32 bit new Vista Home Premium one disc . I just got the iMac and haven't ever run boot camp before.
Next steps?
Thanks,
Steve

Actually, Windows Anytime Upgrade is a mechanism built in all Vista editions except Ultimate (where it works slightly differently). It allows you to upconvert your present flavor of Windows into one of the upper-tier editions for a fee.
If you have Home Basic, Anytime Upgrade will let you go to Home Premium or Ultimate (you can do this in one jump, or two if you go to Premium first). Business users can only jump to Ultimate.
If you already have Ultimate, you can't go further, HOWEVER, you are entitled to two Home Premium upgrade licenses for other machines (which, incidentally, can be used on Macs provided the Macs are already running XP Home)
The 32/64 question gets decided only at the time of your original Vista purchase. Home users have to trade up to 64-bit (via mail-in) if they want it. Business and Ultimate users get the 64-bit version in the box. System builders can pick any single flavor in either 32- or 64-bit, but not both. The only other catch-22 here is that driver support is very spotty for the 64-bit version. Apple provides no support whatsoever for 64-bit Windows, but others have tried to cram together varying degrees of 64-bit support on Macs.

  • Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Lion "Installer disc not found." What gives?

    I'm trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on a Late 2008 MacBook Pro running Lion. When I get to the partition step I get the message "Installer disc not found." I am logged in as an admisitrator. I'm using a brand new store bought DVD. Any advice?.

    Hello @rossinnit and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I'd like to help you get the Deskjet 2542 installed on your Windows 7 PC
    I'd recommend that you download and run the HP Printer Install Wizard, and that will seek out the drivers online (from the HP web page) and download them for you and then start the install as well.
    With that tool you can plug in the USB cable when it asks near the beginning to find the right drivers.
    Let me know how things go for you!

  • CS6 photoshop not found after downloading and putting in serial number

    CS6 photoshop not found after downloading and putting in valid serial number. Only extended version shows up as available. How do I just download CS6 photoshop only??
    Thanks!

    Nowhere during the installation does it give me the option to select the previous version I purchased! This is a new install on a new computer because my other computer no longer works. There is no option for me to select CS6 PS (NON EXTENDED) on the download from Adobe! When I install it only installs the extended version and tells me my serial number is valid but not for the extended. When you provided the link to the page that has the downloads, all that loads is the extended version. Can you please give me a link to the CS6 (not extended) so I can get back to work? I also was able to get the hard drive out of my computer that no longer works and put it on my new computer I'm trying to install CS6 on and the installer gave me NO OPTIONS to enter my old serial#.
    This is beyond frustrating!!!! I have a computer go out on me, and have to buy a new computer, then when I try to install CS6 PS it will not install. In the meantime I'm trying to keep my small business going to stay in business. I can't call any one from adobe. All I can do is send emails to get this resolved and wait.
    Please please help me!

    Hello Satish
    Please do following checklist:
    1. Check that the J2EE engine is up and running (e.g. log in with Admin)
    2. Check that the following application is running:
         Visual Admin => Cluster => Server => Services => Deploy
         Select "Application" and look for "sap.com/tclmctcutilbasic_ear
    3. Try to continue installation
    It could be helpful to apply the patch for CTC as per note # 938261
    before restarting.
    and also try to add more memory allocation.
    If issue persists,
    - I'd like to know which installation DVD/CD number being using ?
    - The contents of the LABEL.ASC file.
    - The installation guide reference and title used for this install ?
    - SAPINST version ?
    - Oracle version/patch level ?
    - Operating system version/patch level ?

  • Problem Installing Oracle Linux 6.3 - 'Disc not found message box'

    I'm trying to install Oracle linux on a old laptop. Single disk drive.
    I downloaded V33412-01Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 Boot iso image for x86_64 (64 bit)
    burned it as an ISO image on a CD.
    Inserted the CD,started the system, cd booted and the installation started.
    Skipped the verify media (I verifed it during another installation try)
    selected English
    selected US
    When prompted for installation method, I tried selecting 'LOCAL CD/DVD' since that's where my CD is at. I get a 'Disc not found message box'.
    I've also tried to select the /dev/sda1, which the installation accepted, only to fail later saying it can't find the ISO image.
    I also tried putting the ISO image and unzipping the contents of the file onto a USB stick and selcting this during the install - same error.
    I tried putting V33413-01 onto the USB stick and selcting that - its too big to burn on a CD, that didn't work..
    Any ideas here? Though this was a easy installation but I'm scratching my head as to how to continue?

    Not very clearly - for me at least.
    Not sure - and not sure where to find instructions on how to do this.
    It mentions that you don't need the source CDs
    Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 source DVD 1 V33413-01 3.1G
    Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 source DVD 2 V33414-01 1.7G
    Not sure what to do with these anyway.
    Installation
    To install Oracle Linux 6.3 from DVD media, follow the following steps:
    1. Download the compressed binary DVD images
    Download Oracle Linux 6.3 DVD from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
    You do not need to download source DVDs to install Oracle Linux.
    2. Verify the downloaded media
    Verify the downloaded file by comparing its sha1sum or md5sum with the published
    sha1sum or md5sum.
    3. Write the DVD image to DVD
    Use your favorite cd burning software to write these images directly to DVD.
    You should not simply copy the files onto the DVD. You must use a DVD burner
    that can accept an ISO image as input, and which can create a bootable DVD
    from it. To test if you have burned the images correctly, insert a burned
    DVD and ensure that multiple files and directories are visible.
    6. Insert the DVD, and boot
    Insert the DVD into your system, boot from DVD, and follow the on-screen instructions
    to deploy Oracle Linux!

  • Need Help ASAP! TV Show won't sync, required disc not found

    I need some help!!! I am trying to sync a TV SHow to my iPod and I can't get it to work. For some reason in iTunes, I have to completely unplug and plug in my iPod anytime I want it to sync, pressing the sync button does not work, neither does pressing the apply button after checking the TV show that I want to sync. SInce I don't have to update any settings for music, this isn't a problem, I just unplug my iPod and plug it back in and it syncs automatically. The error message I get when trying to sync Shows, or videos or anything where you have to update is Can't sync iPod required disc not found. If someone could respond to this right away, I would appreciate it as we are going to be traveling today, and I would love to have something to watch during my four hour flight!

  • [User home directory property not found.]

    Our Roaming Profile policy does not work but exits with the following error message in the log file:
    RoamingProfile Policy] "...[POLICYHANDLERS.RoamingProfile.ErrorInEnforcement] .... [User home directory property not found.] ...."
    We are running ZCM 10.3.1
    We have the exact same environment at another customer where everything is just working fine. We compared the user properties and could not find any differences. eDirectory is fine, too
    Does anybody have the same problems or a solution to it?
    Thanks,
    Sebastian

    Yes, home directory is defined in eDir.
    In Novell Client for Windows XP there is no "Allow Roaming User Profile Paths to non-Windows servers" attribute, it is in Client for Win 7 only.
    In roaming policy, if I type the path to home directory manualy, it works fine.
    In our original environment I have ZfD 4 on Netware, roaming profiles save to home directories normally, without errors.
