You still need open the OS X installer pkg file to get the the contents out, and to open a DMG file. If you are already in Windows, 7-zip will open it: -encounter.net/p860/opening-a-bootcamp-driver-download-on-windows-7-or-8-with-7-zip

This 'Apple DL1443: Boot Camp Software Update 3.3 for Windows' is definitely the required Update. I have a 2010 Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard (10.6.8) installed and couldn't get the right Boot Camp upgrade using any of the Apple download software from within the bootcamp Application.After installing this Update/Upgrade suddenly all of the required drivers appeared in the Windows 'Device manager' and everything started working perfectly
As the title says, I've already installed Windows by bootcamp and all works well. Now I've found this windowssupport.dmg in Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Bootcamp. Can I just delete it? I'm low on disk space.
mende1, the problem here is that the link you provided is a support software once Windows is installed with bootcamp. What he needs is the DMG file in order to install the Bootcamp 4. This is the same reason I'm here. I can't seem to find the actual installer for bootcamp 4 and only find updates or support downloads. I own a Mid 2007 iMac which currently runs on Mountain Lio and bootcamp 5 but can't install 64bit windows. I'd need to get either 32bit Windows 7 or downgrade bootcamp in order to instal previous versions of windos like Vista, XP, etc...
I also have this same issue. I have Mt. Lion on the Late 2008 all aluminum MacBook, which has BC5 on it. I followed the instructions to the letter, installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (which runs) but when I tried to install the bootcamp drvers and support from my USB drive, am told that the version is incompatible and will not run. I tried all the things from the other posts about getting around this incompatible message, but none have worked, so have decided to try BC4 (as I would rather have XP anyway.)
If you must do the download in Windows instead OS X, it's harder. You will need the help on -encounter.net/p860/opening-a-bootcamp-driver-download-on-windows-7-or-8-with-7-zip to open the pkg file and the dmg file inside it.
In fact, there are ways to pull this off, but many of them are unknown to many folks or require some technical knowledge. With that in mind, we are here to help. In this guide, we are going to walk you through the steps on how to migrate a bootcamp partition to a new Mac. Keep in mind that you cannot use Time Machine to restore or migrate a Boot Camp partition to a new Mac machine, so don't waste time on it.
Step 5: The destination should be your newly-created Boot Camp partition and hit the Restore Image button. The restoring process should begin and migrate old bootcamp partition to new Mac.
Greetings. I am in the process of trying to get windows 7 onto my MacBPro, running 10.9.4. I have purchased Windows 7, downloaded it & have an .iso file.I followed the instructions in bootcamp(gotten all proper windows updates) and utilized your bit of code to get bootcamp to create a bootable disc from the iso file and put it on a USB, which it does successfully. When I proceed to partition my drive through bootcamp, it stops me & says there is no bootable disc detected, pls install disc.Through my research I have also installed rEFIt and using disk utility partitioned my drive and bypass bootcamp. When I start my mac, I get the rEFIt option to install windows from my USB, but in doing so it cannot find the BOOTMGR file.Any assistance would be greatly appreciatedIra
Hi Eric,Yes it is free and you should be able to get all the boot camp drivers here.Boot camp driversAlso the last part of this video should give you some idea how to install them.How to remove a bootcamp partition and install Windows support software from Apple.CheersMatt
Got it to work, but one problem! On my PC when I went to this website and clicked create media installation, I chose ISO file and saved that ISO to my flashdrive, which I then plugged into my iMac so I could use that ISO in Bootcamp. Everything installed except the bootcamp drivers never came up during the installation so I cant connect to the internet while in windows 8.1. Was I not supposed to create an ISO file?
Hey, I have a mid 2015 MacBook Pro and I have Windows 8.1 downloaded onto it through bootcamp assist. I tried downloading the driver BootCamp5.1.5640 and it says that this driver doesnt work for this computer model. I was able to go in and manually add some and some worked (like the volume, bluetooth, etc), but the wifi DOES NOT work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Greeting sir ..I was try to install windows 8.1 with assistant bootcampI used 8 gb usb and finish ..But , when i collecting information ( step 1 )I seeDrive 0 partion 1Drive 0 partion 2Drive 0 partion 3And no bootcamp there ..Please help me ..
Thank you for the Bootcamp Assistant! I bought an Apple iMac from 2010 but Apple only gives the bootcamp assistant for Windows 7 and not for Windows 10.The W7 Bootcamp drivers do not work with W10.
I develop on a Mac and run Windows via bootcamp and with this setup I've been able to create native installers for both operating systems. Also it's worth noting that Adobe has abandoned support for Linux as for v2.6 so this may influence to what amount of trouble you're willing to go through to build an .rpm
for those who are having problems installing the bootcamp because it says it can only be installed on windows 7 you can go on the bootcamp setup and go to properties and the compatibility tab and select run this program in compatibility mode for (select windows 7 ) click apply and just open the app
In case I want to buy a bluetooth Mac keyboard to be used in a Windows pc , should I get the bootcamp drivers with Brigadier and install them as normal drivers in windows 10? As I understand I must download the drivers only in a Mac pc first.
I ended up just creating a Windows partition on my Mac using bootcamp and booting into that, creating the disk drive in Windows because every other method I tried failed including multiple apps designed specifically for this purpose.
I have run into a snag, and am not sure how to resolve it. When I get to the step of selecting the bootcamp.vmdk file as the existing hard disk file to use, it gives me this error message.Failed to open the disk image file /Users/macuser/bootcamp.vmdk.
When you hold the option key during boot, you should see all drives capable of booting. If you have both an internal bootcamp partition and an external bootcamp drive, you should see both as well as the Mac OS partition. If you are not seeing the external EFI drive then it is not bootable and something is wrong with it.
Are you sure? If you cloned the internal bootcamp partition to the external drive, it will look the same until you make some changes to it, like installing additional applications or UI personalizations. You can also easily tell by opening Windows Disk Manager.
I went back to the previous step that directed to eject the external drive. After doing that, I checked in Disk Utility and was not able to see the disk. I removed and replaced the disk and it showed in Disk Utility . I unmounted it in Disk Utility and ran the command again. This time it mapped, but mapped to /users/my name/bootcamp.vmdk. When I continued to the VirtualBox, I ran into another error.
Many Thanks for the very clear instructions! Will all this work on a previously partitioned external drive? For example, a 1TB partitioned drive of say, 500 gb MacOS extended, and the other a 500 GB partition for the Windows external bootcamp option(Fat32/NTSF)? Alternatively, with the newly created NTSF Windows/Bootcamp setup on a 1TB external, how can the Mac read/write for general backups and file storage purposes the remainder NTSF portion?
I wonder if this would work with a partition in the internal drive. I have a SSD drive which is not the original Apple one (it was too small) but the new one does not support Bootcamp. I wonder if this procedure may help me install Windows 10 in a different partition of internal disk without using bootcamp
Failed:When Creating bootcamp.vmdk, I was getting I/O read error showing as its already in use.Solution:Make sure the External Drive on whom you want to install windows is ejected and run the command in terminal again.
Solution:I was not able to find its solution so far. Maybe its because bootcamp expects the installation of windows to be on MAC drive rather then on external drive.Any help in solving this problem will greatly help.
I created the bootcamp.vmdk file in my home folder, but once I eject the external drive and go into VirtualBox and get to the hard disk sheet, I can browse to the bootcamp.vmdk file, but not select it (its greyed out). What I am missing??
