Cannot load Windows 7 using Boot Camp

I am also unable to load Windows 7 on my MacBook using Boot Camp. When Boot Camp prompts Windows Setup disc, I put in the disc of Windows 7 Edition complete software Home Premium that I bought, and then my MacBook again request the Windows Setup disk and ejects the disc of Windows 7 Home Premium. On my MacBook, I have OS X version 10.8.2 and I've updated memory to 4 GB. What I am doing wrong?

Delete and re-create the Boot Camp partition. If this does not work, use the Boot Camp Assistant to create a bootable copy on USB and use it to boot from to start the installation.

    Why my iMac (27 inch, mid 2011) cannot run Windows 10 in boot camp? And if he can't, he would work in something like parallels?

    To be honest, Windows 10 is compatible with your Mac, but Apple does not release from Windows 10 drivers for it. There are various guides on the Internet to install the drivers for Boot Camp Windows 10 even if your Mac is not supported, but follow them at your own risk (don't forget that you won't receive help to make).

    However, you are free to run Windows 10 on a virtual machine. To do this, you can use Parallels, VMware or VirtualBox, but remember that a virtual machine will give you less performance than Windows natively on your iMac. Read-> Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?

  • Cannot install Windows 10 OSX Boot Camp 10.11.8

    I wonder if a solution was developed for the installation of 10 64-bit Windows in Boot Camp again.  I have a hard drive 3 TB of fusion that I partitioned (1 TB for Windows 10) via Boot Camp.   When I start the computer in Windows install (on thumb drive) and choose the partition to install Windows 10 in, I get a message that the partition is formatted in GPT not NTFS.  I click on the format button, but it loop back to that error message about TPG.

    I get no further than that.

    I left and I restarted the mac OSX, entered the windows to manually thinking NTFS partition partitioning regular and formatted program that it would solve the problem.

    When I rebooted on the thumb drive and restarted the Windows installation, I got the same error (INCORRECT FORMAT).

    I read about the solutions of terminal mode using Linux command, but hey, Boot Camp should take care of this without all this extra work that could potentially break the fuser unit I am correct?

    Or is this a Microsoft problem because the format function does not work in the Windows Installer?

    If anyone can help us with that, I would be greatly appreciated.

    See you soon.

    I have a brand new Macbook pro and I bought the OEM System Builder of 64-bit Windows 8 driver in a store. My problem is that I have not only not able to install it using Boot Camp. At the end of the installation, a message appears with the following text "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer. Installation cannot continue.

    The thread is old now, but it is for those who always have this problem.

    When I got the error, I cancelled and restarted the machine. I pressed the 'option' button when starting upwards and he grew the boot partitions. You should see a 'EFI Boot' partition. Choose that and you restart the installation process, but this time it works.

    Supposedly the boot EFI and WinInstall partition should do the same thing. Manually, select one or the other.

  • With parallel should I still need to use boot camp to install windows 7?

    Hello

    For example if my mac pro laptop computer requires to install the Windows 7 operating system and I have a parallel software do I need to install via boot camp?

    No, Boot Camp is not necessary to install Windows 7 in Parallels. Parallels installs Windows 7 by starting in the virtual machine.

  • Creating cloud apps on Windows (using Boot Camp on a Macbook) has stopped working

    So here's the situation:

    I've been subscribing to creative cloud (CC) for a few years now and I have the 'apps' installed on Windows (using Boot Camp on my Macbook Pro). Why is it I am running Windows on a Mac? Because for various reasons I ;-)

    A few months ago, I cancelled the subscription but decided to begin to subscribe again. That's when the problems started. Premiere Pro (which is the program I use most often) started to ask forlicensi ng/registration and registration from cc. whenever I started PP I to connect to CC with the result "Thank you for licensing/save...". "or something like that. The other day, I was in a meeting with a client to review changes in a project of PP and suddenly it does not help to to connect to CC. I am stuck in a loop where it says "thank you for the record...". "and then nothing happens. When I click on PP I sign again and so on...

    I called Adobe support and when I told them I'm using Boot Camp on a Mac the first guy said ' it is not supposed to work on Boot Camp or virtual machines and if it works it is probably due to a bug in the software '.


    I google a bit on this subject and can't find anything about supposed to CC to work with Boot Camp. When I was persistent and told them that they really help me because I'm in a hurry and that the customer is frustrated he actually hung. I called support again and this operator says 'We have no instructions on how to help users with problems in Boot Camp'.

    I tried PP uninstall and reinstall, but still get stuck in the Sign-in-loop. Could this something in the registry that I need to change or remove?

    I installed PP on my Mac OS without any problem. The thing is that I guess I can't open old projects created on the installation of Windows of PP.

    Any help on this would be much apprechiated.

    / Thomas

    Looks like the Support of Adobe has solved the problem. I called the third time and this operator is out of the box.

    I had to delete some folders (PCB Adobe, Cache SL, SL Store), and then start any application as administrator (Windows) and log in.

  • No sound in Windows 7 with Boot Camp 4

    On a Mac Mini 32-bit running Windows 7 with Boot Camp 4. I use this set to the top due to other software, I need that requires 32 bits.  There is no noise from the CPU itself, no making helmet. I get the Mac sound at the start of the central unit, then Windows starts normally.  On the Device Manager in Windows two audio devices are: high definition Audio Device and display Intel. The State of the device on these two said they operate both correctly. I have an another Mac Mini that the sound is not working properly, and there a Cirrus S4206B. I tried to find how to add this device and driver for the CPU problem, but in vain.

    The audio works normally on the side of OS X?

    Check if the analog-to-digital composite on the mini has a Dim red light.

    Run msinfo32 on the side Windows and after return your BIOS setting.

    In Device Manager, click view and enable devices show hidden. See all device Cirrus?

  • Cannot start to OSX after using boot camp

    Hey everybody

    I have a Macbook pro 13' (2015) with display of keratina, 2.7 i5, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB Flash storage.

    The problem started when I decided to run the boot camp on the device, everything went well until the installation of boot camp on windows 10. The installer got stuck in the process, so I left it. Then I went to the OSXRESERVED partition and I found the boot camp folder but when I tried to open it to re-run the installation program, I got an error message saying that the file cannot be opened and its corrupt. Then I formatted this partition using windows (how stupid on my part). And now I can not start back to OSX.

    I tried to go to the recovery of the Internet then disk utility. I see that the partition I made for windows that is only 40 GB. And there's "virtual whole disk", which is written in red. When I click on check, he said that the drive should be repaired, when I clicked on the repair. The same warning showed once again that the disc must be repaired.

    Also I tried to restore using time machine backup, but as I mentioned it won't give me access to the other partition is the 80 GB one. Instead, it shows only the 40 GB one and its not enough storage to restore the backup with.

    Sorry I took so long and I appreciate everyone's help, thank you.

    Hi Tayar98,

    Please visit Apple support communities. Congratulations on your new MacBook Pro!

    It seems that you cannot boot to OS X or restore from a backup Time Machine after that a partition has been formatted using Windows install.

    You should maybe erase and repartition your hard drive MacBook Pro before restoring from Time Machine backup. You can use the procedure described in disk utility (El Capitan): partitioning a physical disk:

    Erase and repartition a device

    You can delete all volumes on a device and create new ones. For example, if you want to change the plan of partition of a USB key, lightning or other storage of Master Boot Record Partition GUID carte device. If you just want to delete a volume, see to delete a volume.

    WARNING: Deleting and partitioning device destroys all data on all volumes of the device.

    1. Select the device in the sidebar you want to erase and re-partition, then click the Erase button .

      Note: You cannot erase the device that contains your boot volume.

    2. Enter a name for the original volume.

    3. Click the context menu of the card, and then choose a format for the initial score.

      For MS-DOS, and ExFAT partitions, the name must be 11 characters or less.

      • Map of Partition GUID: Used for all Mac computers with Intel processor.

      • Master Boot Record: Used for partitions Windows will be formatted under MS-DOS (FAT) or ExFAT.

      • Apple Partition map: Used for compatibility with Mac computers with PowerPC processor.

    4. Click clear, and then click done.

    Best regards.
