Wizard Boot Camp disk space error

So I bought a new macbook pro 15 "two days ago, I installed not anything on it so its own.

My problem is that I am trying to install Windows 8.1 on it using boot camp assistant. But BCA keep jumping with the message that I don't have enough disk space when I have 500 GB of total disk space, and I also tried Windows partition half of the disk space. And its still saying I don't have enough disk space.

Thanks for the help!

P.S. I am a new user of MacBook

Hi there Zenorthodox,

Looks that you can't install Windows on your computer because boot camp keeps giving you this error message. I would like to first take a look at this info in the following article:

Boot Camp: The problems of creation of partition

If you have problems creating a Windows partition, check the following:

  • Before installing Windows, the disk on your Mac must be a single partition to Mac OS extended (journaled) format. If the disc has more than one partition, you need to repartition it.
  • The disc on your Mac must be an internal drive. You may not use the Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows on an external drive.
  • If you have a Mac Pro with more than one internal drive and want to install Boot Camp on a drive that is not in the first hard drive Bay remove readers in the bays of lower numbers. You can reinstall the drives after installing Boot Camp.

If none of this applies to you or does not help you solve the problem I would then use disk utility to verify and repair the disk:

Disk utility (El Capitan): a disc repair

Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • I am running Windows Vista and a low disk space error message.

    I am running Windows Vista and a low disk space error message.  I ran disk cleanup, disk defragmentation and cleaned up all the old files and still only have 793 MB free on GB total 103.  I noticed that my 6.0.6002.18005_001c11ba_blobs.bin file takes 54.9 GB of space.  In research, it seems that it is safe to delete this file--is that true?  If so, how? It seems that I need permission to do this.

    To give the control is a two-step process. Take ownership and then to give permissions.

    Owner of a file allows the owner to change permissions even if they do not have the authorization to do so. It's the only thing that made property. The person who creates an object owns the object. For admins, the objects that are created are the property of administrators, not the individual.

    You need start exploring as administrator to Start - All Programs - Accessories - made Windows Explorer right click and choose run as administrator.

    You must therefore make a right-click folders / drive, you are interested in tick - button Properties - Security - Advanced button - property - Edit - Replace owner on Sub containers and objects tab - select one user-then Ok your way of out.

    Right-click new - folder Properties - Security - Advanced - tab permissions - Edit button - select the account - check the two checkboxes - button - Advanced - Search now button Add button - select your tick - Ok button - total control in the list. OK your way out.

  • Wizard Boot Camp invites not to create the Windows ISO

    Hi all.

    I have a new MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2015 retina) with El Capitan 10.11.3 (15 d 21) installed and fully updated. I'm trying to use Boot Camp to install Windows 10, how ever when I load the Boot Camp, he goes to the option to partition disk and wonder where the ISO file is located, but it never gives me the ability to create a Windows ISO on my USB key as did previous versions of Boot Camp.

    Don't know not what Im doing wrong here, but it doesn't recognize it even with the version I have all my ISO files even when they have been downloaded from the Web Microsoft MSDN site as when I click on continue after that point to the ISO file, I get an error message saying "Boot Camp only supports installation of 8 or a later version of Windows 64 bit on this platform." Please use an ISO for 64-bit Windows 8 or later installation file. "I get it despite trying everything I have or do.

    My version of boot Camp is Version 6.0.1 (522)

    BootCamp does not create the Windows ISO, he asks, you will need to provide it.

    Thank you!

    Your model does not offer using a USB Installer. You must use a physical DVD.

    Windows 10 can be directly installed, with the wizard of BC, on your specific Mac Help. See a list of Macs that support W10 in using 10 Windows on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple support . However, you can install W7/W8.1 and then run an upgrade on the spot to W10. Be aware that there are no drivers certified by Apple for your specific model, if it is not listed.

    This forum does not the letter nor did pay extra for punctuation.  Please try to write in complete sentences.

    Simply connect your external drive to your computer will redirect the import of files from the CD.  You don't always have enough space on your internal drive - at least that's what seems to be the case of the incomplete information provided.

    Full error messages are needed to accurately diagnose problems.

    There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive.   You can move the data to your external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on the external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions. You can also move your iTunes folder there (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1364)

    • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
    • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
    • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
    • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
    • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
    • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)

    But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

    In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying your external drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.
