Impossible to install Bootcamp

I try to install Bootcamp on my iMac 27 "(mid 2011) running El Capitan v. 10.11.5, as my operating system. I bought a copy of Windows 10 Home (on a USB key). I downloaded the iso of Windows 10 corresponding on the microsoft Web site. Then I burned a copy of the program to a DVD Double layer 8.5 GB DVD + R DL (Sony).

Now, I had the DVD to my installer of Bootcamp and instered in the Superdrive drive and check both boxes to download the latest drivers and install Windows. Download additional drivers exploded without any problems however, when it came to the installation of Windows 10, I get a message saying that it couldn't find the installation disc.

I thought that maybe my "superdrive" did not work as I have not been able to read ANY disc with this drive superdrive. .... I took the computer to the dealer who sold me the computer and after a few days, they returned it saying that they couldn't find anything wrong with the drive. I get the computer home and NADA. I so restart the computer to the dealer and tell them I want that they replace the "superdrive" even if I have to pay for it. This time they tell me that they have to send it to Apple and it will take two weeks. Two weeks later I won't count it with a message saying that they cannot always find something wrong and not replace the disc. So here I am back home with my computer and cannot install Bootcamp.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Windows 10 is not supported by Apple on iMac mid-2011.  See the list of devices supported in a use 10 Windows on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple Support.  This is probably the reason why BCA pretended that not finding the drive.

You can use 8.1 Windows on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple support on iMac mid-2011, then use a free update to win 10 against MS.

    Hi Jason Dang,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. What a great way to try to get this problem resolved on your own! The best resolution would be to format the drive outside the Bootcamp utility. Your drive must be formatted using the recovery partition. Once you format the drive, you will be able to use the wizard Boot Camp re partition and re install Windows.

    Hello

    Make sure that OS X and Safari are up-to-date.

    Open system preferences > App Store, then click on: check now

    Your profile says your Mac works v10.11.1. The v10.11.5 update is available. This is maybe the reason why you can not install the Safari extensions.

  • Help - my ssd is missing 40 GB, after that I tried to install Bootcamp

    Here's the situation. A few weeks back, I tried to install bootcamp and windows. He is not well, but don't forget windows at the moment.

    The problem is that I have partitioned ssd in my Macbook Air, creating a new windows 40 GB in size. Win installation did not work, but now I can't retrieve the 40 GB. In fact, it is invisible. I thought I could fix it myself, I waited for this weekend when I have time. I have superdupered a copy of my ssd disk external and tried to reformat the entire ssd, intending to copy the contents of the external drive on the ssd. It did not work.

    Disk utility could not erase my ssd. The message was that there was a discrepancy with the size of the disk and who was who.

    I have no more ideas. Can anyone suggest how I can get back my missing 40 GB?

    A big thank you to all those who can help.

    If you used boot camp to partition the drive you would use to remove the windows partition. Rerun the bootcamp and choose Delete bootcamp partition.

  • I can't access/login to Mac OS x after installing bootcamp

    When I turnon my macbook pro and hold the option key, got to a screen with Mac and windows. When I click on mac, don't need me a black screen with a white no circle entry with an icon of the slash. I've tried everything. Required to command-r, I tried to make recovery of the internet, but it won't let me connect to the internet. It gives an error after sitting on the screen of the world spinning for a few minutes.

    I went into Control Panel by running msconfig, and contained the default startup mac but I still have no entry circle with a slash icon. I'm fine with wiping everything but the fact is that I need to have installed for work, so that I can have mac and windows in bootcamp.

    When I installed bootcamp, I followed the instructions of installation of Apple's site and used bootcamp application wizard in my apps folder on my mac. I have nothing extraordinary.

    I'm so lost. It seems that I am completely locked out side mac but my partition hard drive for mac still exists and I can see it when I go in management of the disks on the side windows.

    Any suggestions?

    * My installed software is the current version of el capitan and windows 8

    No circle entry with an icon of the slash.

    This indicates that you tried to boot Mac OS X, Mac OS X Volume has been mounted a OK, but some components may be missing or damaged.

    If you can get to the recovery, you can try a disk (ERD) utility in Macintosh HD (there was also a recovery on a Time Machine backup or an installation of the USB program. There is a utility on 10.6 DVD drive, if your Mac can run that.)

  • Impossible to install the operating system using the product on Satellite 1110 recovery CD

    I had to replace my hard drive after the failure, but impossible to install Windows XP Home (Home) from the recovery CD. I followed the instructions on the CD case, but nothing happens, just a cursor flashing at the top left of the screen. If I try to install XP on a disk (which I just can't finish because it is already registered), then the installation begins as it should. A disc of windows 2000 installs also successfully.

    I realize that it could be the drive itself, but it does not appear the disk is not bootable. I will be grateful for suggestions.

    Simon

    Hello Simon

    Supplied restore CD is bootable. If I remember well, you should have 2 recovery (1/2 and 2/2) CD. It sounds stupid, but you can try to start the procedure of facilities using CD 2/2. A few months ago, I read a topic where a member of the forum has reported on the incorrect labelling of CD.

  • Impossible to install some components for target RT

    Hi all

    I try to install the software in the target (your desktop) RT via MAX. However, the "NI Application Server Web 2.0" and "Web-based Configuration of NOR and monitoring 2.0" fail to be installed and the former one depends on it. ". I received this message:

    "On the Web OR Configuration and monitoring 2.0.0 has core 1.0.6 WIF dependencies

    "Based on the Web OR Configuration and monitoring 2.0.0 needs core WIF 5.0.0 dependencies.

    So, what should I do? Any suggestions and help is welcome and appreciated.

    Su

    P.S. Now I'm not able to deploy a project of RT on target, only to be informed that "LabVIEW: unable to load nisysrpc.dll. In fact I can see the file on the host under the path "CProgram Files / National Instruments/RT Images/system NI API/5.0.0&5.1.0." It seems that the dll cannot be loaded into the target machine. I wonder if it has something to do with the above problem.

    I think that your post is victim of a mistake to copy - paste, the message you posted is not possible.

    Usually when customers run into situations where impossible to install version X of Y, it is often because they have several versions of LabVIEW RT installed on its host computer and try to install new components in older versions of LabVIEW Real-time.  Can you take screenshots of your error dialog box, or a list of software installed (via a MAX report)?

    Impossible to install programs, download 1628: failed to complete the installation after the installation of service pack 3. What I have to do.

    Assuming you meant WinXP SP3...

    Why the SP3 was not installed for over a year?

    What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?  Who were these applications that run in the background when you tried to install WinXP SP3?

    A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on this machine (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

  • Impossible to install Vista Service Pack 2

    Vista Service Pack 2 (KB948465) have not installed yesterday morning via my auto-download of Windows.  When the "failed" dialog box came, the error code given was 80070490.

    I then tried a 'manual' download via the Microsoft Download site - it did not work.  Provided a link directing me to http://support.microsoft.com/kb947366.  He suggested download "tool update for Vista (KB947821) system, which I did, ran, then rebooted and tried again auto-download of Windows.  It is always impossible to install, with the same code (80070490) given.

    During all this time, and reading various troubleshooting suggestions, I realized that I had to disable my antivirus, protection against spyware, etc.  So I did, then tried again auto-download of Windows.  It has always failed.  Then I tried the manual download (I had saved the executable file in my "Download" folder).  But it still does not work.

    Somewhere else troubleshooting suggested to disable antispyware/virus, reset programs and open in safe mode - which I did, then tried the executable file downloaded, I had previously saved in my folder "Download".  But it still doesn't work.  This time, the dialog box has given me a little bit more information: "Installation was not successful.  Item was not found.  Details (a link that I clicked on) and it will read: error: ERROR_NOT_FOUND (0 x 80070490).

    So I've now used up what little expertise I have - you suggested I should try next?

    Thank you!
