Re: Running Windows 7 on VMware Fusion

[E.T.]

   I also prefer this approach, makes it less likely that I will be 
inadvertently thrown into the Mac environment by a misused keystroke.

Hello,

I prefer to go a different direction.

I disable the universal Macintosh keystrokes like command-tab in the VM 
and make the VM view a Full screen view. When doing this, the only 
things that MacOS will interpret while in Windows are the Caps Lock and 
the VoiceOver commands which really only seem to block table navigation.



Then I can either press:
control-command followed by command-tab to switch back into Macintosh 
environment.
or use the three or 4  finger swipe left / right gestures from System 
Settings - trackpad  -  More Gestures


So when I go into the More gestures area and change those three finger 
swipe left/right to four finger swipe left/right I can easily swipe 
right to go to MacOS  and swipe left with four fingers to go to Windows.

Running Windows 7 on VMware Fusion

I have just installed Windows 7 on a Mac Mini running Fusion. I have no

RE: Sharing a folder between my windows 7 and my mac

[Simon Fogarty]

You have to purchase it from them directly I believe,

 Also you could reformat the external drive to Fat32 
Which is both readable and writable by both windows and mac,
The only limitation is if files are larger than 4GB you wont be able to write 
them to the fat32 drive structure,

 Or format it as X Fat which again is readable by both mac and windows and has 
no real issues I've found so far.

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Ramy,

 Great you have paragon,

 The smtp is not correct, 
You should be using SMB://machine name 
SMB stands for Samba, you need this to connect to the windows environment.

 Also something to check on, 
On the windows machine,

 In the windows explorer,
Go to your shared drive and right click to bring up the context menu,
Then go to properties,
Once in properties go to the share tab and check that you have the share giving 
everyone access rights,
 This is normally done under the share tab,
Advanced sharing,
 Highlight the everyone user and then select full access.
Then click Ok, then once your back to the properties window tab back up to the 
tab names and arrow over to the security tab and then tab down to the edit 
option and enter on it,
 Then in the list of possible users find Everyone if it is there,

If it's not there then click the Add button,
 And in the search box type the word Everyone,
 And then if you need to click on ok but it should be a case of type in the 
word everyone and hit enter,
 Then shift tab back to the list of users and find the everyone user and then 
tab down to the list of rights,

If it's only you accessing this share from your mac I'd suggest checing the 
Allow Full access, you just have to tap the space bar on that option,
 Then keep tabbing down to the Ok button and hit enter,
Then again tab down to either ok or close,

 Once you have both of these things configured you should be able to restart 
your windows machine and again try connecting to the shared drive and then let 
us know how you get on,

Good luck.

RE: Sharing a folder between my windows 7 and my mac

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Ramy,

 Try putting 
SMB:// at the start of your computer name that the shared drive is on,

 The problem you may get here is that the mac wont write to a windows NTFS file 
system
So unless your wifes windows computer is an xfat or fat32 file system you will 
only be able to read from the windows side to the mac 

But normally you will require a Samba connection that is the SMB:// to connect 
/ work with the windows share.

 Hope this helps.

Subject: Sharing a folder between my windows 7 and my mac

Hi all:

i need to share a folder between my windows and my mac.
in windows 7, i made all steps, and i’m sure that it’s visible on the network, 
because i signed from my wife’s windows laptop, but on mac, i can not see the 
folder at all.
I hit Control+k, i found my PC name, i hit connect, i didn’t set a password, so 
i wrote guest. but i failed to connect, so what’s wrong here?

Re: Sharing a folder between my windows 7 and my mac

[Erik Burggraaf]

Your Mac requires that the windows account you are signing in to have a 
proper username and password. You cannot use guest. You will need to make 
sure you have a password setup on your Windows 7 user account, and that 
your Windows 7 user account has full permission to access that shared 
Drive. The sharing permissions have to be set up manually in the sharing 
options of that folder.


Once you have that all set up, you may want to go and do some things behind 
the scenes to make your Windows 7 machine start out with and requiring a 
password.


Hope this helps, Eric

RE: Making a network between my Macmini and My windows 7 machine

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Ramy,

Sorry about the delay,

 If you go back on the windows machine to your setup of the shared drive / 
folder and set the user account to "everyone and give it full access / 
administration rights and then ok this then go to the security tab and again 
add everyone and again with full access / administration rights you should then 
not get prompted for the username and password as everyone has full access to 
the share, 
Of course if you need to restrict access to less than full then I'd suggest 
setting a password on the username you are using to access the share.

 Also before the changing of the share and security settings, do you have the 
username you are using set as a member of the group you have given access 
rights to within the share and security tabs,

If the user is not a member of the group in the windows machine then they wont 
be able to get in to the share.

   I hope this makes sense 

 Give me a yell if yo still have troubles.

Try entering no password or set one under the user manager for the account you

RE: Making a network between my Macmini and My windows 7 machine

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Ramy,

 Yes very possible.

 As scott has said use cable as much as possible to transfer your data.
 Wired is far better for speed and stable connectivity  when transferring large 
amounts of data.


On your windows machine,
Open windows explorer and find the folder/ folders you wish to share or be able 
to copy your data into from the mac,
 Right click on the folders one by one and do this if there are multiple or 
create one folder and copy your other folders into that so you have one share 
for connecting to, rather than multiple which could get confusing 

 On the folder you wish to share right click and select properties from the 
tabs,
 Select advanced sharing,
 Open this,
Tick the box that says share this folder ticked or unticked,
Tab once and 
Give it a name that makes sense.

Tab again  to the share with how many users 
I suggest changing the number of users to a low number like 3 or similar as 
it's only your mac accessing this share,
Then tab again to settings permissions,
Enter on this,
 Select everyone which is in this case just you,
 Tab down to allow full access and select this,
 Then tab down and hit enter,

This will put you back at the advanced sharing option, shift tab or tab until 
you find the tab name 
and then right arrow to the security  tab,
 tab down to the  option that says 
Edit, this should be 2 tabs from the name "Security".

Then in the list of possible users select or highlight the everyone option and 
then tab down to 
Allow full control,
 I would tick this as you again are the only user accessing this share,

Then tab until you find Ok,
 Click ok and then tab to ok again, if ok isn't there at this point click 
closed.

 The properties window will close at this point and your shared folder will be 
available.

 On your mac, try accessing the share by doing a command key and K, then type 
in 
Smb://Machine Name.

 Use the windows machine name as that is what you are actually connecting to, 
this should then open the access on your mac to the share on your windows 
computer,

Using SMB or samba will help with the connection to your windows machine as 
they use different formats AFP on the mac and most likely ntfs on the windows 
machine then try copying between the mac and your windows share,

 Please note that mac computers by default will not normally copy to an NTFS 
file structure so this could be an issue.

Also note that if you wish to secure this share you would be better creating a 
group in admistrative tools and computer management / users and computers on 
the windows side and putting the user in to that group who you wish to have 
access to the share,

 Then under the share and security tabs as above add that group in as the 
accounts that you wish to give access to the shared folder.
Rather than using everyone.

Hope this helps.

RE: Making a network between my Macmini and My windows 7 machine

[gary-melconian]

Agree with you on that one.  On my gigapower network with att I get really 
great band wwidth with wired compared to eh wireless network around this big 
house.  A lot of blind spots  wher no wifi around and that’s  why I asked about 
mesh routers around the house.

I’ll take the network question part of this.  For best performance you’d use a 
wire.  Wireless is good but wired is still your fastest option.  You can nail 
that wired connection to gigabit and get quite a bit of throughput.  Wireless 
will work but expect the wire to be as much as twice as fast possibly more.  
(That’s a rough estimation there’s a lot of factors to consider)

One other option you might go with is setting up a network attached storage 
that both your Mac and windows have access to.  You can get several terabytes 
for a couple hundred bucks and then you don’t have to leave both machines on 
all the time or depend on Windows.  You can use also different file transfer 
methods SIFS for Windows, and so forth which should perform better.  Just 
another way to get from here to there, take it a you wish and good luck.

Re: Making a network between my Macmini and My windows 7 machine

[David Griffith]

A few pointers.

You can do this as long as both machines are on the same wifi network.

1. You will need to have Windows 7 setup so that you have a login password.

2. You will need to have your drives /folders permission  on Windows to 
be shared. Go to the properties of each drive/folder you want to share 
and make sure that sharing is enabled. Go to advance


sharing to set up whether you want the ability to just read or edit 
files through your sharing link.
3. On the Mac side use command shift C to bring up computer in Finder. 
Look down for Network and see if you can see your Windows Machine there. 
If you can see it copy the name  to the pasteboard that the Mac 
recognises it by.
4. Now press command K to set up a network connection. Paste in the name 
of the pc you want to connect to.
 Then tab to the request for password that will come up and type in the 
normal password that you normally use to access your windows machine.


That is pretty much it. You will see the drives on your network machine. 
Whether you can access them will depend on whether you have set sharing 
permissions on the Windows side.

RE: Problem with Owc Thunderbolt dock under Windows 7 with bootcamp

[Simon Fogarty]

I've got an apple thunderbolt or mini display to VGA adaptor that I use 
sometimes on  a big screan,
I find I have to restart the mac book air I have if I try to plug the adaptor 
in to windows while it's going, for some reason it doesn't just plug and play, 
it does with Mac OSX but not windows and that's on my windows 10 side.

 But I have all the correct bootcamp drivers installed so possible I've missed 
something alogn the way.

Hi I too have windows running under bootcamp and I have two
thunderbolt hard drives. They have never worked under windows 7 or now
under windows 10. They work fine under OSX. I think its just how the
bootcamp drivers are written, that as soon as you switch to windows
thunderbolt is turned off.

Hello but the good news is if you use a screen reader or any related access 
tools the windows upgrade is still free and if you have any trouble the 
Microsoft access line is great and they will help you install win 10 for you

Thunderbolt requires windows eight and leader, unfortunately. Looks like you'll

Subject: Problem with Owc Thunderbolt dock under Windows 7 with bootcamp

Hi all.
 I thought, at the time of purchase, this would be the ideal solution for me. I 
have an eleven inch Macbook Air, and so I'm limited on how many peripherals I 
can connect. So, I purchased a Thunderbolt dock to offset this challenge. It 
works fine under Mac OS, but will not work under Windows 7 on my Bootcamp 
partition. I plugged it in while running Windows, with no results, so switched 
to Mac OS and it works great. However, for the skae of my employer, I must run 
Windows. When I plug the device in under Windows, I got the error that the 
hardware had not been installed properly. I rebooted, and tried again. Now, in 
the System Tray, I have an eject Hardware option, with the Thunderbolt Doc now 
as an option to eject. However, even when plugging in a USB keyboard, Windows 
doesn't appear to recognize that it's there. I also tried an external hard 
drive. I can't find it under device manager to uninstall the driver, and there 
doesn't seem to be much on Google regarding the subject. So, does anyone else 
happen to know what I can do to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly 
appreciated!

Thanks so much!
Scott

for me. I have an eleven inch Macbook Air, and so I'm limited on how
many peripherals I can connect. So, I purchased a Thunderbolt dock to
offset this challenge. It works fine under Mac OS, but will not work
under Windows 7 on my Bootcamp partition. I plugged it in while
running Windows, with no results, so switched to Mac OS and it works
great. However, for the skae of my employer, I must run Windows. When
I plug the device in under Windows, I got the error that the hardware
had not been installed properly. I rebooted, and tried again. Now, in
the System Tray, I have an eject Hardware option, with the Thunderbolt
Doc now as an option to eject. However, even when plugging in a USB
keyboard, Windows doesn't appear to recognize that it's there. I also
tried an external hard drive. I can't find it under device manager to
uninstall the driver, and there doesn't seem to be much on Google
regarding the subject. So, does anyone else happen to know what I can
do to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks so much!

RE: Windows 7 to a network drive then to my mac

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Tony,

If you can save the disk as an ISO format file then you could use that image to 
install I believe
Otherwise I would suggest obtaining a USB optical drive and installing from 
that.

As for installing without  sight,
To a point yes,
When you start the vm fusion installation the vm wizard asks all the questions 
such as name of machine, licence key drive size ram etc, but it’s once that 
part is done and you have to pick language in the windows setup that things get 
scratchy.

If you have a usb sound card or speakers that you can connect to the new vm 
then you might get narrator working

I haven’t done it for a few years with windows 7 but have with server 2012r2 
and things are very similar.

Hi all,
I just got a Windows 7 disk that I purchased from amazon. I want to install it 
on my macbook pro, but it has no disk drive. Would I be able to copy the disk 
from a windows laptop to a network drive then install Windows 7 off of the 
network drive to my macbook using VM Fusion? Also, is there a way to do the 
Windows installation without sighted assistance? Is voiceover involved, or can 
I activate narrator to assist me?
I’m really looking forward to getting this done. Thanks for any help.

Just one more thing: where did you obtain windows iso file?  And also, can you

RE: Installing Windows 7 under bootcamp without sighted assistance

[Simon Fogarty]

Bootcamp grabs windows installation files from the image of the windows 
installation disk and writes those files plus apples bootcamp drivers for the 
installation all on to a flash drive.
 Then when the install is ready to run it grabs everything from the flash drive 
and installs on to your bootcamp partition which was specified during the setup 
/ configuration process.

But due to the apple bootcamp drivers not being installed till the very last 
stage  you have no audio or possibly usb so therefore no audio output is 
possible.

 I must admit I haven't tried using USB speakers during the setup of windows in 
bootcamp so it might be worth a try as I know it works with a normal computer 
installation of windows systems.

Hope that makes more sence.

Hi. I'm confused. Are we installing Windows to the flash drive via Bootcamp or 
are we installing it to the Mac? I've been thinking of going back to Bootcamp 
with Windows 10 because this thing runs terribly slow with it under VMWare 
Fusion. Look forward to your reply.

HI Andrew,

Yeah done it a few times, and have windows 10 currently on my mac book air 
under bootcamp.

 I've tried installing it with out assistance but it appears no go at least I 
haven't found a way yet.

It's pretty easy really, run the Boot camp assistant in the Mac OSX and then 
follow the prompts.

All you need now is an ISO of the windows installer package and a USB / flash 
drive with more than 8GIG of available storage 

Once bootcamp finishs what it needs to do the machine restarts in to the 
windows installation the problem we have is that apple / windows drivers are 
not installed until the very last stage of the setup, 


If you have the ISO on your desktop then bootcamp should pick it up without 
problem and you then only need to make sure the flash drive is selected as 
bootcamp writes / downloads the apple windows bootcamp drivers to the flash 
drive.
And then that's where windows is actually installed from.
Oh and the only thing to be aware of is the step that asks you to set the drive 
partition size  by default it only gives you 20GB 

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Has anyone on the list had experience of installing Windows 7 in Bootcamp 
without sighted assistance?  Having looked at the process on Apple's support 
pages, I can see that it is probably not possible.  Also, even if sighted 
assistance is required, would you mind sharing your experience?  Please feel

Both of those threads (that one, and the one linked in the post) are worthwhile

Re: Installing Windows 7 under bootcamp without sighted assistance

[Andrew Lamanche]

Hi Shawn,

I'm a little confused too and thus a bit nervous because having read the 
supporting documentation on Apple's support pages for windows 7 - which is the 
version I want to install via bootcamp on my 2010 macbook air - I don't know 
whether I can install windows 7 from its disk which I have or whether I must 
create an .iso image from teh the original disk and use that.  Why or why 
aren't instructions from the gurus ever clear? :)  Although I chose to read the 
page on installing windows 7, I get an impression that some steps are meant for 
installation of windows 8 or higher.  SOS!  What is going on?  Do I use my 
original installation windows 7 disk, or not?  I understand that the flush 
drive is only for bootcamp windows drivers to be copied onto during the process 
and once windows is installed, one has to run the drivers from the usb flush 
drive.

RE: vmware fusion 7 and windows 7 becoming unactive

[Bill Holton]

Hi.
As I recall, there are two different ways to run a bootcamp partition in 
Fusion.  The first imports the machine, and considers it a new machine.  The 
second simply runs the bootcamp partition in Fusion, and does not require 
reactivation.  I remember having this problem, but I can no longer find what 
each of these items are labeled as since I no longer have a bootcamp partition.

 I remember something like this happening to me a long time ago. I believe it 
 happens because when you access the windows bootcamp installation via fusion, 
 it is as though you are running windows, and everything in it,  on a new 
 computer. The fusion virtual environment is essentially a simulated piece of 
 hardware and windows thinks it is being run on a different piece of hardware 
 than it was authorized for. The same goes for Jaws, Office, and all other 
 programs that are tied to the hardware for licensing purposes.
 Having said all that, I don’t remember the fix, but I believe there is one. 
 Otherwise you’d have to reauthorize everything for use in  fusion. 
 It might be in the way you access the bootcamp. There is some setting to be 
 checked or unchecked when you import the bootcamp into fusion. I know that 
 when you import a VM file into fusion from another machine, you have to be 
 careful to “move” and not “copy” the vm, otherwise fusion won’t import  the 
 license along with the vm file. and you’ll have to reauthorize everything 
 because when you do a copy, you’re essentially “creating a new copy of 
 windows that requires authorization.
 Something like that may be happening when you import the bootcamp into 
 fusion. In fact, I’d bet on it.
 You may want to try deleting the bootcamp VM, (not bootcamp itself, just the 
 imported VM), and reimport the bootcamp partition and watch for this sort of 
 thing.

wifi-problems with windows 7 under bootcamp

[Anouk Radix]

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this is slightly ot but i am using my mac privately now as well as in 
a workrelated situation. For the last situation i use windows 7 under bootcamp 
for productivity reasons. I notice however, that while on the macside wifi 
works great on windows the connection is VERY unstable, the network connection 
cant be established or it drops everytime and you have to reconnect manually. 
My macbook air is from july 2013 bur a friend of mine who has an older macbook 
with bootcamp and win7 is running into the seem issues.
I was wondering if more people have these and what your solutions are? 
Apparently bootcamp installs 3 wifi drivers and i was wondering if that might 
bring a conflict? I was wondering if an external wifi adapter might solve the 
issue? I think its weird still though because I have VERY good wifi on the 
macside and all the other stuff is working well when using bootcamp.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Greetings, Anouk,

Re: vmware fusion 7 and windows 7 becoming unactive

[Juan Hernandez]

Hello,

Thanks for letting me know this.  That make sense if I am importing the 
bootcamp into a vm disk file.  But I am actually accessing the bootcamp 
partition directly.  I will look into making windows 7 recognize the vm 
environment as the real one.  Thanks for the input,  I really appreciate it.

Best,

Re: Apple Stops Supporting Windows 7 in Boot Camp on New MacBook Pro, MacBook Air Models - Mac Rumors

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

Yeah, it makes sense.  Windows 8 has more out-of-box hardware support and 
improved internals including better power management.  And you can always 
install Classic Shell; one thing that surprised me, actually, was how not fussy 
Windows 8 was, in comparison to Windows 7, if not for the Start menu.

So it’s all right by me.  I’ll use Windows 8.1.

Re: Windows 7 CTRL-right and left arrow Function Problem

[David Griffith]

I am slightly confused by what you are describing.  For me selecting words  is 
not a problem as control shift and left or right arrow keys work as normal. 
From the first part of your message it sounds like this might also be working 
for you?
 
If I use control plus num pad 4 or 6 I can read a word at a time which works 
around the control arrow keys lack of functionality. .  This was annoying until 
I got used to it, now it seems normal and not really a problem. However I never 
 use the numpad for selecting text as the existing control shift arrow keys are 
working fine  anyway.

I am probably not understanding what you are describing.

This problem has been there for more than a few versions of Jaws.  When running 
Fusion with earlier versions of Fusion and Jaws, I could not use the arrow keys 
when in Microsoft Office word.

Have not installed Widnows on my Mac Mini yet but one of these days I will.

Re: Windows 7 CTRL-right and left arrow Function Problem

[David Griffith]

The workaround if you are using an Apple extended keyboard is to use the 
NumPad cursor keys. So using Jaws in a Fusion window pressing control 
and numpad 6  will work as if it was control right arrow. Similarly 
control 4 will work the same as control left arrow.


The other work around on all keyboards is to press the shift key in 
conjunction with the control and arrow keys. Jaws should read the words 
as normal. The This temporarily highlights all the text on the words you 
are reading but a press of a cursor key removes this and you can read at 
least a word at a time.

Hello everyone,

I am using VMWare Fusion 7 running Windows 7.
While using JAWS 14 I am experiencing a CTRL-right and left arrow function 
problem.
Basically, when trying to use this function, it does not seem to work with 
JAWS. All other subsequent arrow functions work fine.
Has anyone experienced this same issue? I primarily encounter this when trying 
to navigate through text within Microsoft Word.
It is a cumbersome problem because it makes navigating text very difficult.
Thus, does anyone have a solution that can remedy my issue?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Regarding virtual machine. and Windows 7.

[Kjsc Radio]

Hello all, I have a question or two. Ever since I have upgraded to vmware 7, in 
my Windows 7 virtual machine, I am unable to use my up and down arrows in my 
DeskTop. I can use my left and right arrow keys, but not my upper down keys. 
The only other place that this happens in is programs and features. In there, I 
am unable to see anything, because of that. So,  I was wondering if you guys 
have any suggestions on how I can fix this. I have tried it with Jaws, and NVDA 
 and they both produce the same results.

Interesting, I’ve just found the same problem on exploring. I upgraded to 
VMWare 7 ages ago so it isn’t related to that. Something must have happened in 
a Windows update

Re: switching from mac to windows 7 bootcamp faster?

[Joshua Tubbs]

It’s easy to boot up into Windows. On most system setups, the bootable disks 
goes like this: Startup Disk which contains OS X, recovery partition and 
Windows. If not like that, then the order is reversed, with Windows being 
second to OS X. Hold option once you hear the startup chime for about five 
seconds or so, and press right arrow either one or two times. Most likely two.

 Replace disk0 with the disk on which the MBR boot code of Windows is actually 
 located.  Try it; paste that command into Terminal, type your password, and 
 stand well back …
 
 Hopefully when the machine reboots, you'll be in Windows.

Re: switching from mac to windows 7 bootcamp faster?

I am still able to boot up in windows 8.1 with no problems.  The bootcamp 
partition wasn’t altered in any way.

Re: switching from mac to windows 7 bootcamp faster?

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

I suppose you could put together an Automator workflow to do the bless and 
reboot in one step. That's all the preference pane is doing.  You'd run 
something like:
sudo bless --device /dev/disk0 --legacy --setBoot  sudo shutdown -r now

Replace disk0 with the disk on which the MBR boot code of Windows is actually 
located.  Try it; paste that command into Terminal, type your password, and 
stand well back …

Re: switching from mac to windows 7 bootcamp faster?

[Colin Matthews]

Hi!
Ok I've never used a bootcamp but when I had 2 accounts on this iMac I was 
using fast switching to go from one to the other!
So I do not know if it will work for bootcamp but the option is in Users  
Groups under log in items so might be worth a look at! [unless someone says it 
don't work *smile*]

switching from mac to windows 7 bootcamp faster?

Hi All,

Is there a faster way in the mac to switch back to the windows bootcamp side of 
my computer? right now I go to sys prefs - startup - set the disk to 
bootcamp, and hit rest art.  In windows I can right-click the system trey icon 
for bootcamp and hit reboot into mac os x.  Does anyone know of any ways that I 
can speed up this process?

RE: VM Windows 7 and Window-eyes, anyone running this configuration?

[Bill Holton]

Hi.

I have a chronic problem when resuming the VM when Window-Eyes will start
reading the current clip and never stop or even allow interruptability until
I close WE and reopen it.  Is this something you experience?

Thanks.

before i try  to install windows 7 on my mac, i would like to know about more 
into partitioning. do i need to partition it into ntfs? or can i do it onother

You'd best read the bootcamp utility guide pdf that you can download through

Windows 7 install question.

[matthew Dyer]

Hi all.

I just reasonably acquired a copy of windows 7 home premium to install on my 
iMac, but have a problem.  I am going through the easy install and have filled 
in everything including the product, but in the language  chines tie won is the 
only option.  I downloaded from a link that was given to me which was the ms 
tech net site. It was a direct link.  Am I doing something wrong or are there 
several isis with different lanages on them?  If someone could help me with 
this  it would be great.  Thanks.

Matthew

 If you don't have speech, you are sort of stuck. VMWare can do some
 configuration, but I installed it once and had to just press enter, and
 another time it prompted for a whole bunch of settings. Both were Windows
 7, both on virtual machines. Once you are up and running, you can launch
 Narrator and use that to get a real screen reader installed, though the
 process is horribly tedious. I find it much simpler to just have a sighted
 person click through everything, then grab NVDA from www.nvda-project.org
 and install it. Once I have that, I'm all set, but up to that point it is
 much easier and error-free to have sighted help.

  You will need sighted help. Voiceover can handle installations of mac
  operating systems or updates just fine, but creating a VM is
  essentially installing Windows, albeit on a virtual disk instead of a
  physical one. So, Voiceover cannot see anything Windows does because
  Windows is its own operating system, and so you will not be able to get
  speech feedback (thanks, Microsoft).

Re: Installing windows 7 home premium into vm fision from an iso

[Caitlyn and Maggie]

Funny,
Ive had success installing win 7 from an ISO into fusion 6.x.  You have to use 
narrater for the speech after win 7 is installed if you want speech before you 
install some other screen reader, though.

this has been where the problems happen for me.  I get stuck at the windows log 
on screen and after hitting my pass word narrater sometimes wouldn't work.
hth,

Installing windows 7 home premium into vm fision from an iso

[Shannon Gerdts]

Hello everyone,
   Ok so I  purchased a new macbook pro 13 for my wife's birthday.  We're 
now wanting to see about installing windows onto her macbook using fusion 
since that will allow her to run windows and her mac OS side by side so that 
she can switch between the two and run applications as needed.  However, I'm 
trying to do some searches for doing such a thing since the newest macbook 
pros no longer come with an optical drive so I'm not sure how to go about 
this task using an iso.
   I did manage to get ahold of the windows 7 version I have in an iso form 
but would love to get some feedback on how I go about using this iso and 
installing it into fusion.
   I want to thank all of you for any help on this matter ahead of time as 
it will be tremendously appreciated from the both of us.


Take care,
Shannon Gerdts

I did that recently, and it's really simple. You create a new VM, choose to 
install from existing file or CD, then navigate to the iso when you are 
prompted to open the location of the Windows install disk or file. Pressing 
enter launches the process, and Windows installs. That's all there is to it!

Hello,
Wow that’s really nice. Now with both of us being blind would we still need 
sighted assistance during the install process or would voiceover work to tell 
us what’s going on during this installation?

Re: Installing windows 7 home premium into vm fision from an iso

[Alex Hall]

You will need sighted help. Voiceover can handle installations of mac operating 
systems or updates just fine, but creating a VM is essentially installing 
Windows, albeit on a virtual disk instead of a physical one. So, Voiceover 
cannot see anything Windows does because Windows is its own operating system, 
and so you will not be able to get speech feedback (thanks, Microsoft).

Hello,
Ok that is what I figured but wanted to check before we went ahead and did 
it right htis  second, smile.  Well at least the process is easy enough to 
start so will just wait until we have someone who can read the screen when we 
do this then.

Re: Installing windows 7 home premium into vm fision from an iso

[don bishop]

Alex,
I thought you could install windows itself without sighted help.  Of course, 
you'd need help with installing speech unless you're familiar with the 
keystrokes to get your speech going.  
Isn't this how it works?  Thinking of doing it here.
Thanks,
Don

Re: Installing windows 7 home premium into vm fision from an iso

[Alex Hall]

If you don't have speech, you are sort of stuck. VMWare can do some 
configuration, but I installed it once and had to just press enter, and another 
time it prompted for a whole bunch of settings. Both were Windows 7, both on 
virtual machines. Once you are up and running, you can launch Narrator and use 
that to get a real screen reader installed, though the process is horribly 
tedious. I find it much simpler to just have a sighted person click through 
everything, then grab NVDA from www.nvda-project.org and install it. Once I 
have that, I'm all set, but up to that point it is much easier and error-free 
to have sighted help.

  I did that recently, and it's really simple. You create a new VM, choose 
  to install from existing file or CD, then navigate to the iso when you 
  are prompted to open the location of the Windows install disk or file. 
  Pressing enter launches the process, and Windows installs. That's all 
  there is to it!

  Hello everyone,
   Ok so I  purchased a new macbook pro 13 for my wife's birthday.  We're 
  now wanting to see about installing windows onto her macbook using 
  fusion since that will allow her to run windows and her mac OS side by 
  side so that she can switch between the two and run applications as 
  needed.  However, I'm trying to do some searches for doing such a thing 
  since the newest macbook pros no longer come with an optical drive so 
  I'm not sure how to go about this task using an iso.
   I did manage to get ahold of the windows 7 version I have in an iso 
  form but would love to get some feedback on how I go about using this 
  iso and installing it into fusion.
   I want to thank all of you for any help on this matter ahead of time as 
  it will be tremendously appreciated from the both of us.
  
  Take care,
  Shannon Gerdts

Re: Installing Windows 7 on an MBA using the DVD drive from a Macbook Pro

[Alex Hall]

That's complicated… Why not just use Remote Disk? Enable the feature under 
Sharing in your System Preferences. Put the disk into the drive, give it a 
minute, and then find remote disk on the sidebar of your MBA's Finder. Both 
machines need to be on the same wifi network, but it should work. I installed 
Windows on Fusion this way, using an old Mac Mini as the drive and loading it 
onto my Air. You can even download a utility to do this on a Windows machine if 
you need to.

 okay, since i don't have a cd-rom drive on the mba it is not being
 shown, but if you can lay the dvd in your mac, and type mount i can
 tell you which drive too use.
 Anyways, after you have found the right drive you will type something like 
 this
 dd if=dev/dvd/path/ of=/place/for/the/new.iso
 your drive will start up, and run for a few minutes, after that is
 outta the way, you have your brand new image where you placed it , lay
 it on an usb or something like that.
 If you are using vmware you should be fine from here. If that aint

Re: Installing Windows 7 on an MBA using the DVD drive from a Macbook Pro

[Alex Hall]

You can use it like a local disk drive for everything except music or, 
possibly, DVDs with movies on them. For some reason, Apple disallows using 
remote Disk to play, transfer, or otherwise manage music on CDs. I don't know 
for sure, but they may apply the same limitations to movies as well. Still, you 
can burn, copy, and perform other tasks; I mostly use this for installations on 
the rare occasion something is on a CD.

obvious thing am i missing? What am i doing wrong? Vmware tools is uninstalled 
as far as i know, the anti virus program i use is disengaged, so what am i 
doing wrong?
Any and all help would be much appreciated as i need this setup urgently. I 
could use another screen reader and would gladly do so if it could do what i 
have in mind which it can't 
Thanks for any and all help.
/Krister
