Windows 7 impossible to install

Hi !  My friends have a MacBook white 2009. I try to install Windows 7 Ultimate (32 bits) on it, but it is impossible. First, the DVD (OEM) is rejected every time. Second, I did a bootable usb drive with my MBPr. But in his computer, BootCamp don't detect is like a bootable devise. Also, it is not detected in the boot menu (alt at starting).
------------I verify the permissions of the disk, verify the disk, manually partitionate the drive (75 go allocated for an MS-DOS partition). Nothing works
Thanks to help me

While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use BootCamp. There's a BootCamp Support Community where everybody uses BootCamp. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • It's impossible to install Windows 64 Bits on my Macbook Pro, why?

    Hey everybody,
    I was tryng for three days to install Windows (8 and 7 after) 64 bits version on my Macbook Pro and I can tell you that It's impossible...
    It's doesnt matter what I do, the PC does not recognize the bootable disk or usb for Windows.
    I followed these steps:
    - I downloaded the Windows 7 official ISO image to burn a DVD Setup after use the Boot Camp Assistant.
    - When I used the Boot Camp Assistant, I tried to "Download the latests Windows support software from Apple" but 2 minutes after I chose that option, the assistant alert me that the Server doesn't have the files anymore... so I had to simply use the install option BUT it requires that I put the Windows Installation CD on my PC and when I put it on it... the PC doesnt recognize it! My "solution": I mount a Virtual Drive with the ISO image of the DVD and now my Mac recognize the Installation CD so I can continue with the installation...
    - After that the PC was restarted and thats the last step that I reach because when It's tryng to start with the Installation Drive it's doesn't recognize... again!! A black screen appears with a text that say "Insert a bootable drive and press any key"... or something like that.
    So I'm stuck in this step because I was tryng to use another Installation CDs, burning it again and again, tryng with Windows 8 too and nothing happens.
    I tried to make an USB Bootable too but my Boot Camp Assistant doesnt have any option to make it (I read that some macbooks have an a 3rd option in his Boot Camp Assistant that prepare a USB with the ISO of any Windows Installation CD) so obviously whitout it was completely useless.
    I was tryng to make a bootable dvd with UDF format (cause I read that if the cd is not in that format It doesnt be recognize in Mac as a bootable drive...).
    What can I do? I know that Windows 32 Bits Systems run on my Mac but It should support 64 Bits Systems too (I was reading the compatibility of Boot Camp and Windows versions and It should run!).
    Please help me
    My Macbook Model is:
    Macbook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2010
    Processor 2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 4 GB 1067 Mhz DDR3

    Software: OS X 10.9.2 (13C1021)
    Boot Camp Version: 5.1.2 (481)

    you can just download the bootcamp drivers manually
    http://www.apple.com/dk/support/bootcamp/
    and you can't
    : I mount a Virtual Drive with the ISO image of the DVD
    bootloader time nothing can read virtual drives you need a real dvd with the iso burned on it or to do the usb install way

  • Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

    We're sorry.

  • Windows 8 crashes after installing Apple drivers

    Due to an electrical storm, I had a 2 partition drive fail. The Mac partition was corrupted, the Windows 8 (via BootCamp) install was fine. However, I couldn't reformat (or even mount) OS X so decided to reinstall both OSes on their own physical drives within a Mac Pro. Mountain Lion restored from a Time Machine backup and I got Windows 8 up and running, via BootCamp, on the other drive. All seemed well until I went to install the Apple drivers/software where upon my restart from the install I got the BSoD. No matter what I do or how many times I restart, it continuously crashes. Curiously, two randomly spouted errors are offered...
    KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE
    and
    IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
    The problem seems to be with the Apple drivers. I used the updated BootCamp 5 software. However, I also used BootCamp 4 software after restoring Windows 8 to a clean install, that set of drivers doing exactly what BC5 did. I've stripped my settings back down to initial install, even reformatted the physical drive, re-partitioned via BootCamp and reinstalled Win8. While working correctly, I set up my account, redownloaded apps I installed from Windows Store, restarted to finish those installations; still, the only issue seems to be when I install the Apple offered drivers. I would just not use them but with many of my peripherals being Apple products it's more of a hassle than I care to deal with. And, I had it all working before with no problem. What's wrong this time? Below I list some concerns...
    Is there any difference between installing a BootCamp/Win8 partition on a startup drive or another internal harddrive? Once, BootCamp had to be installed on the startup disk.
    Is there any way to install just certain drivers from Apple's software pack since best I can find from MS's site is that the errors seem to be one or two driver incompatibilities?
    I've installed Win8 updates prior to and after running Apple's software... would this affect the installation of that software either way or system integrity in Win8?
    The above are the only two error messages I've seen. Why do they alternate? Is there more than one issue needing to be addressed?
    It all worked before, could it be the software offered now? I've tried BootCamp 4, 5; should I try a lower numbered driver set?

    My apologies for not following up on this topic.
    Yes, I found a fix for my issue. It involved the Time Machine backup drive I had installed.
    I reinstalled OS X and Win 8 onto the same drive and experimented pulling drives out of the Mac Pro. However, I never removed the Time Machine drive alone, only took the three extra drives out at the same time so I did not which one was causing the crash. It didn't seem to matter which bay it was in, it was the backup itself that Win 8 didn't work with. My Time Machine backup goes back for over a year so I wasn't interested in starting all over so I removed it from the Mac and installed it in an external enclosure. HOWEVER, if this drive is connected and on while booting up in Win 8 the OS will still crash. Within the Mac, it was impossible to keep the backup from mounting. In the external, I have to remember to disconnect when I switch OSes. Not a fix really, but a solid workaround.
    If someone wanted to set up a new backup perhaps that would fix the issue completely. Perhaps it's because OS X/startup disk was restored from the backup and the backup have the same data, maybe it's an issue with data on the backup disk and Windows 8. I don't know. But several times, while switching the OSes I have forgotten to disconnect the now external backup and Win 8 crashes; if I remember to disconnect no issues at all.

    This may help, it allows you to reset the application, it also may be worth clearing out the app store cache and temp files.

    Hi, after installing Adobe CC I tried opening Adobe Photoshop. This failed.
    I get the opening window where it says installing plugins searching etc, after which PS opens in full screen.
    Just moments after that there's a failure warning, no code number, only the warning that PS failed to open and PS will close.
    I tried downloading it for a second time, but this did'nt solve the problem.
    Befor the CC version I used a one year student version of Adobe CS6.
    What can I do?

    Regarding the Flash Player problem, disable Hardware Acceleration to circumvent driver incompatibilities.
    Regarding the Flash Pro installation problems, post in the Flash forums or http://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup

    Run the cleaner tool and reinstall with sufficient user privileges and security stuff turned off. Your install went wrong because you didn't consider this.

    Hi bruce,
    What are you actually looking for? On Windows 7 your options will be under ''Tools > Options''. If you have the ''Firefox'' menu, you can hit ''Alt'' to temporarily enable the menu bar.
    Your System details say Linux. Your say you are on Windows 7 though, correct?

    I want to install a third operating system on my macbook pro. I already have windows and i want install unix or linux in there. Is it possible??

    Yes, it's possible, but if your Windows system is on a Boot Camp partition then you have to first remove it. Then create however many partitions you want for the operating systems. You have OS X on one, so you need two more - one for Windows and one for Linux. You then install Windows and Linux separately to their respective partitions. Download rEFIt
    Use it as the replacement bootloader so you can properly boot from each OS properly.

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.
