    I have tried to install Windows 8.1 64 on my new Mac Book Pro from a full install disc. When I get the the choice of partitions to install Windows 8.1 on the Windows installer says that the Bootcamp partition is not valid.
    Has anyone encountered the same issue?

    BCA creates the partition as FAT, which the installer needs to format.
    Please see https://help.apple.com/bootcamp/mac/5.0/help/#/bcmp173b3bf2 for reference. Where does it break in your case?

  • HT5628 When will Windows 8.1 be supported on Boot camp 5? I have a new Mac book Pro 2013 and cannot install. Apple please advise.

    When will Windows 8.1 be supported on Boot camp 5? I have a new Mac book Pro 2013 and cannot install. Do I return the Windows version and try to download 8.0, or wait it out until it is supported? New to Mac's.
    Apple please advise.

    Apple does not respond in these forums except occasionally an Apple employee will stop by. If you want to contact Apple, use the contact us link at the bottom of this page.
    With respect to your question "When will Windows 8.1 be supported on Boot camp 5?" you are asking us to speculate as to when Apple will release their drivers supporting Windows 8.1. We do not know, and we can not speculate as to when. From the terms of use of this forum:
    "Unless otherwise noted, do not add Submissions about nontechnical topics, including:
    Speculations or rumors about unannounced products."
    The planned dates of production or release of Windows 8.1 drivers are speculation about the drivers.
    With respect to your other question, "Do I return the Windows version and try to download 8.0, or wait it out until it is supported? New to Mac's.". I answered you.

    I just bought a new Mac Book Pro and did a migration of the content of the old laptop (also a Mac Book Pro) to the new one. Now I cannot start Photoshop CS6. When I am starting it I have a window "Adobe photoshop CS6 extended" opening requesting a connexion. When I am entering my password for the connexion the software crashes. How can I fix the problem?

    Migrating, transferring or copying is DEMANDING trouble, not just asking for it.

  • HT1751 How do I move my entire iTunes library from my iomega hard drive to my new Mac Book Pro?  I no longer want to keep my music on the external drive.

    Because of a lack of enough memory on my old Mac Book, I put all my music on an external hard drive.  Now that I have a new Mac Book Pro with lots of memory, I want to move the music onto this new computer but I haven't been able to yet.  I tried the migration assistant but that didn't work.  Any suggestions?

    I may sound like a real rookie here, but on my new MacBook Air there isn't a "Pictures" folder under "Users/kendallwilson" like there used to be on my old MacBook Pro (Early 2011). I'm still working out the new software on my MB Air, so where exactly should I open this new window to start following the steps you just provided me.
    Thanks again!

  • How can i get my nikon software to work on my new mac book pro with lion

    i had nikon software (capture nx2 and view nx) on my old imac that ran leopard
    i cannot get my nikon software to install on my new mac book pro with lion
    can anyone help me get my software installed
    i need this software to work immediately because without it i am unable to work that is the programs on how i process my photographs and without it i cannot make any money
    thank you

    That seems to be supported only up through 10.5.7 and probably needs Rosetta for it to run.
    Rosetta is not included in 10.7.
    If this is the case, you may need to partition your hard drive, install Windows on it, and use that partition for your work.

  • I want to transfer adobe premier elements from my old PC to my new mac book pro, how do i do it?

    I want to transfer adobe premier elements from my old PC to my new mac book pro, how do i do it?
    =============================================
    Moved by moderator from Premiere Pro to Premiere Elements forum.

    photo shop elements 12
    What is your program? You specifically ask about Premiere Elements but your ID = photo shop elements 12.
    It is confusing why Reynolds Films 2014 is replying to your thread, talking about Photoshop Elements.
    Assuming some version of Premiere Elements currently on some Windows operating system.
    What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system does it exist?
    How did you install your version of Premiere Elements on Windows - installation files from an online purchase or
    from installation disc from purchase of the product in box packaging?
    What installation files or installation disc do you have?
    You cannot install Premiere Elements Windows installation files on a Mac computer. If you want Premiere Elements
    for your Mac computer, you will need to buy a version of Premiere Elements Mac that is supported by your Mac computer.
    If you purchased Premiere Elements Windows in box packaging, it probably came with 2 installation discs, one for
    Windows and one for Mac. If that is the case, use the Mac installation disc to try to install the program on your
    Mac computer.
    But, we need the details from you in order to sort out what is and what needs to be done.
    Looking forward to your follow up.
    Thanks.

  • How can i create dvds on my new mac book pro

    I just purchased a new mac book pro retina and cant create dvds?

    Apple decision to remove iDVD will deter me from recommending Mac to fellow Windows users.
    Many other Mac users feel the same way.
    Leave feedback here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html
    Now that my newly bought Mac does not provided a avenue for me to burnt DVDs, I am
    really disappointed.
    If you are still within your 15 day return period.  Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes.)
    Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
    408-996-1010
    800-692-7753
    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

  • Can't get iPhoto 9.3.4 to update on my new Mac book pro. Keeps saying an error has occurred. Any suggestions

    Can't update new Mac book pro with iPhoto 9.3.4. Any suggestions?  Keeps saying an error has occurred.

    Try using this updater manually: iPhoto 9.4.3
    Or if you're having problems with the App Store you might try this:
    1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
    open the Terminal application.
    copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
    defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    followed by Enter.
    launch App Store, login.
    2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:
    3 - try again.

  • I have a new Mac Book Pro with Retina, and Keynote crash almoset every time i use it?

    I have a new Mac Book Pro with Retina, and Keynote crashes almoset every time i use it? I have the newest update.
    Could you please help me? I have a lot of Keynote shows, and I have to use it now!!
    I have saved a crash report, if you need it.

    Apple will not write back to you. Telephone using the Apple Care phone number appropriate for your country and ask for a refund, if that is what you want to do.
    I use Keynote everday, it does exactly what it says it will do,  that is if your NOT using Mountain LIon.
    There are many applications available
    I have used MS PowerPoint professionally for many years on both Windows and Mac, I can assure you it can do everything that Keynote can do and very much more.
    Which software you choose depends on who you are and who you are presenting to.
    for interactive presentations look at:
    PowerPoint
    Adobe Flash
    Adobe Director
    Camtasia
    Dreamweaver (an HTML application)
    for simple photo slide shows:
    iPhoto
    iMovie
    Picasa
    Photomagico
    Adobe Lightroom

  • I can't get past the password grey screen on my new Mac Book Pro.

    I have a new Mac Book Pro.  I transferred info from my old computer, and when I went to log into the new one, it took me as far as the password screen, and I can get no farther. I click on my name, put in my password, and it jiggles...as if it is wrong.  News to me - as I used the same password that I have used for years on my computer. 
    I get a message that says, "If you forgot your password, you can reset it using your Apple ID."  There is a little arrow there, but when you press it, the message disappears, and nothing happens. 
    There is a guest profile set up, that apparently has a mystery password in it as well....  I am locked out of my new computer.  Very frustrated!!!

  • I have recently transferred data from my old PC to my new Mac Book Pro (Mavericks OS). Each transfer creates a new User account (titled 'Owner', 'Owner 1', etc).  I want to merge the files from these transfers into my main user account.  Help?

    I have recently transferred data from my old PC to my new Mac Book Pro (Mavericks OS). Each transfer creates a new User account (titled 'Owner', 'Owner 1', etc).  I want to merge / consolidate the files from these newly created User accounts into my main user account.  Is there a tutorial for this process, or any tips?  Anyone? 

    Four transfers.  After the initial attempt with Migration Assistant failed (after hours and hours of wifi transfer) I did "mini-transfers" of more manageable, smaller bits of files -- my music in one, photos in another, etc.  Since posting my question in this forum, i contacted Apple support, chatted with Angela, and she suggested getting an ethernet-USB adapter for my mac, connecting my external drive with ethernet and transferring files manually -- that is, NOT using the Migration Assistant at all.  She sent me this link to help:  Switch Basics: Migrate your Windows files to your Mac.  I appreciate your response, tho', Csound1! 

  • I need help connecting my old pc to my new mac book pro.

    I cannot connect my old pc to my new mac book pro. Can anyone help me through this process. Thx.

    OK. Starting with iTunes: Macworld - How to transfer iTunes libraries between PC and Mac.
    Get yourself an external hard drive and format it using NTFS on your PC. OS X can read from an NTFS formatted drive. Copy your photos and documents to this drive. Use the drive to transfer you iTunes data via the method outlined in the above linked article. This will prove easier and faster than using a network.

    I own CS5.5 Design Premium. It's on my desktop, I need to install it on my new Mac Book Pro laptop.
    Successfully downloaded "DesignPremium_CS5_5_LS1.dmg" entered the correct serial # in the first window, then it asks for it again and will not accept it.

    if you have an upgrade serial number you are being prompted for the qualifying product after entering your cs5.5 serial number.  select it from the dropdown and then enter the qualifying product's serial number.
    enter the correct number at the correct time and installation should proceed.
