Re: Installing windows on a Mac.
On Apple Silicon macs, the only way to run Windows is to use Parallels, and unfortunately that software is completely inaccessible with Voiceover.

Re: Installing windows on a Mac.
Hi, You can install windows 10 using Boot Camp. You do not need to purchase a windows license. It will install without it, allowing you To add it later. And if you only need windows for a short time, It should be OK. And if you can, just use NVDA, or a 40 minute demo of Jaws. > On Nov 2, 2022, at 10:56 AM, Jessica Moss wrote: > > This is a 2017 MacBook I would be attempting this on, and I unfortunately > can’t afford anything additional at this point, sense my last few paychecks > have been extremely slim.

Re: Installing windows on a Mac.
Provided you have an Intel Mac, you can use Bootcamp. Unfortunately, you will have to purchase Windows and I don’t know the cost. It may not be so bad though as you will need Windows 10. M1 Mac you will need a completely different set up and I understand it’s not the most stable.

Installing windows on a Mac.
I didn’t think I’d ever see myself doing this, sense getting my first Mac, I’d intended to leave the Windows platform behind. However, someone on our team at work has introduced us to training material through DHS, which, as helpful as it can be, is strictly windows-based, so in order to use its testing tools to complete the courses they offer, that’s the only choice I have.

Re: installing windows on a mac questions
When using Fusion it should be possible.

Re: installing windows on a mac questions
VMWare Fusion, like most virtualization systems, stores all the Windows data on a fake C drive which shows up on the Mac side as a giant multi-GB file which grows as you store more stuff on the Windows side. That package file can be placed anywhere you want, including external drives. VMWare might ask you if you moved or copied it when you do but after that it should work just fine. You can also tell it where to create a new virtual machine and just point it to your external drive. A NAS drive would probably also work but it might be kind of slow compared to a local drive.

Re: installing windows on a mac questions
Cameron, I had access to sighted assistance with most aspects of the actual Win 7 installation. At times I called a friend through Skype and had them give me a hand. Forget about XP the lowest you should be aiming for is 7. There's an excellent podcast over at AppleVis that discusses how to install Windows totally independently via Boot-camp: http://www.applevis.com/podcast/episodes/how-install-windows-mac-boot-camp.

Re: installing windows on a mac questions
Hello, Those podcasts are good if you are running a 32 bit machine. The talking installer will not work on a 64 bit one. I went that route before having to think out of the box solutions. On CoolBlindTeh, there's another podcast with Cory using a product called Winstaller (I think that's the name). I didn't check to confirm before posting. There's a cost involved and you need to create the talking portion on a Windows machine. After listening to the podcast, I thought it was a bit over my head and I had once installed Windows through BootCamp with sighted assistance. Hence, I was well acquainted with the process. Like I said in an earlier post, I did read the article posted on Applevis on how to install Windows without sighted assistance, but really used it as a guideline along with the apps mentioned on my phone.

Re: installing windows on a mac questions
Why not use the Win7 PE Disk? It has NVDA, and talks you through the install. it even contains setup files for all the Windows 7 installs. you will need a USB sound card to hear NVDA while installing Windows 7.

Re: Installing windows on my mac using bootcamp
The first one it is accessible if you use the startup disk method. If you use the hold the option key at startup method then you have to kind of guess the order of the boot menu. If I am correct OS X can read from but not write to NTFS partitions while Windows can read from but not write to HFS partitions.

Re: Installing windows on my mac using bootcamp
Hello, Here are my solutions to accessing files or folders from one OS to another. Since Dropbox is pretty much full, I installed One Drive in both the Windows bootcamp, the Mac side and on my iOS device. This Way I can have access to my work folders on all platforms. For some reason, it has been easier for me to boot into the bootcamp side and go to the system prreferences and reboot to the Mac side from there. When on the Mac side, I activate system preferences, go to the start up option and select it VO-SPACEBAR. I then make the change from there. I hope this makes sense to you. I began to try to select the OS by holding down the option key at start up, but there were too many times that I ended up in noman's land. The one thing that a friend told me is that if you turn on VO with Command-F 5, you will have speech. Then I was always able to get myself out of any irreversible damage. HTH.

Re: Installing windows on my mac using bootcamp
Hi, When I installed BootCamp, it became listed as 1 of 3. for example, when I boot, after hearing the apple startup sound, I hold the option key for about 14 seconds then release it. the choose drive screen is loaded. From left to right there are three options to choose. the first if BootCamp second is recovery and the third is Mac. Since my Mac is setup to start in the Mac OS, the third option is selected. so I press the right arrow once to move from the third option to the first option wich is windows boot camp. Or I can press left arrow once to get to the recovery drive. Its really easy to do.

Re: Installing windows on my mac using bootcamp
Hi, there are 2 podcasts on AppleVis.com doing a demo of installing BootCamp. and below is what I did to install windows 7 bootcamp. Things you will need. 1. USB drive to download the windows bootcamp drivers 2. windows install DVD 3. windows 7 talking PE disk from www.bryansmart.com the mega disk contains the NVDA screen reader and all windows 7 installers. 4. you want be able to hear NVDA before installing the windows bootcamp drivers, so you will need a external USB sound card. I found one at WalMart for about $10. Dear List, I solved the problem of BootCamp not creating a partition asking for the windows 7 install disk. I downloaded a windows 7 ISo and put it in my DVD drive. that allowed BootCamp to continue to create the partition. the mac rebooted before I could eject the win7 install disk. so it loaded the install disk and the only way I could eject it was to restart the mac and hold the option key at the mac startup sound. I then could eject the disk and insert the win 7 PE talking install disk.once I restarted the mac NVDA came up talking and I was able to install windows 7. My $10 external Sabrent sound card from WalMart worked great.
