I am running windows on a mac using boot camp.

Everything was until a few weeks ago and the function keys on my keyboard don't work more (different keyboard also). Everything is going well on the side of mac. I suspect that an update has caused the problem. I checked in Control Panel and the drivers are ok too.  Help

I also tried to set a recovery point, but he would not accept it... Maybe it's because Boot camp.    tedz

Driver scans are notoriously bad, they even installed the incorrect drivers at times.  I go directly to the mfr and get the driver on their part.

BTW, standard support for vista is complete.

    Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key.  1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key.  Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

  • 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.

    Hello

    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.

    I'm not really a tech guy but I also tried to download virtual box and the same error comes back.

    Can someone help me please?

    Thank you!

    Original title: Windows 8 64-bit English OEM System Builder

    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.

  • Two partitions of Windows after the installation of Boot camp?

    I have a new Macbook Pro from 2015, with OS X 10.11.3 El Capitan.

    I put the iso file of Windows 10 in the download folder and installed using Boot Camp assistant. After formatting the Bootcamp partition in the Windows installation guide and complete the installation, everything seems fine.

    But.

    When starting with the alt key to choose between Mac and Windows, I have now two icons Windows as well as Mac icon. A my Windows installed 10 boots, and the other icon starts the installation guide for Windows. Why is this last icon of Windows and the option to start the installation of Windows always there?

    Hi there Jer2015,

    Looks like you see an additional drive when you hold down option and start your computer, which will begin installing Windows again when selected. That sounds to me like you have the USB plugged with ISO on installation files. All you need to do is unplug it from the computer and it should no longer be an option.

    Thank you for using communities of support from Apple!

    How can I fix this so that my Bootcamp will work?  I tried to click on rt and remove the boot camp partition, but this option is grayed out and wont allow.

    Thank you

    Note: These steps assume that you have a default Apple installation of Windows and a VMware Fusion Boot Camp Virtual Machine default partition (without a snapshot *) and if you have changed the Boot Camp partition the Virtual Machine to add additional hard disks to be virtual or RAW disk then do not use these instructions unless you backup the Boot Camp partition the Virtual Machine package first.  * Note that Fusion 2.0.0 may accidentally have a snapshot with the partition Boot Camp, Virtual Machine, and it should not have then you should check to ensure that the condition does not exist as well.

    2. in a Terminal (/ Applications/Utilities/Terminal) copy and paste command, as the following and then press Enter and it will remove the Boot Camp Virtual Machine meta-data partition.

    Notes: Then, an authentication dialog box appears. "VMware Fusion requires that you type your password." Enter your name and password, and then click OK. (It is necessary to remove the Boot Camp for the merge partition to access it directly).
