I also directly downloaded the BCSS for Windows 7 from Boot Camp Support Software.

I used the Boot Camp Assistant to download the BCSS for Windows 8.1 to a flash drive. One myth I put to test was: "Downloading the BCSS using the Boot CampĪssistant will produce newer software than directly downloading from the internet".

If Apple did not supply Windows 10 BCSS for your Mac, you should use latest available BCSS that Apple documents is designed for your Mac.

The drivers for Apple hardware is included in the "Boot Camp Support Software" (BCSS). Windows is designed to use older drivers when newer ones can not be found. This does mean you can not run Windows 10 on an older model, just that you are on your own to figure out how.
Is this the only move that Apple will make? The mood music from MacOS is that ‘things are changing’ and in the case of Apple’s software policies over Hey, ‘these app store rules are fixed.’ How far Apple will ‘lock down’ MacOS remains to be seen.Basically, Apple does not support running Windows 10 on Macs older than the 2012 models. The change clearly benefits Apple, and gives Apple more control over the platform. The confirmation of MacOS for ARM is not yet a week old but Apple is already removing a key feature. Apple’s push towards its future could easily push those users away from the platform, just as the move from 32-bit to 64-bit was smooth for most but a business critical mistake for others.
The Mac platform - especially but not limited to those in the ‘Pro’ class - are workhorse machines with specific needs. These hypervisors can be very efficient, so the need to direct boot shouldn’t really be the concern.” "īoot Camp is a vital tool for many, and Apple’s reassurances of ‘shouldn’t really be the concern’ will be welcome if you are explicitly using your Mac in the way that Apple intended. “We’re not direct booting an alternate operating system,” says Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of software engineering. “ Apple later confirmed it’s not planning to support Boot Camp on ARM-based Macs in a Daring Fireball podcast. Instead the only route will be to use virtual machines that run inside MacOS. This is the software that allows alternative operating systems to run on the Mac hardware. When these computers arrive, they will not support Bootcamp. Apple has confirmed that Boot Camp will not be available on Mac ARM machines.

As the Mac platform moves to ARM and the expected release of the first ARM powered MacBook Pro later this year, will Apple take this opportunity to follow the iPhone and the iPad down this route?Īn iPad Pro is reviewed after an event announcing new products Tuesday Oct. The closed system of mobile devices remains something Apple is especially proud of. Not only has the iPad Pro moved towards the ethos of a MacBook with the release of a Magic Keyboard and touchpad for the tablet, the user interface of both MacOS and iPadOS have a growing similarity. Yes there is a Mac App Store where developers can submit their apps into Apple’s ecosystem… but the Mac platform is far more open to loading in applications from other sources, it’s far more open to different payment systems, and it’s far more open to making different decisions than Apple would make.Īs Tim Cook continues to redefine what it means to be a Mac, one of the most noticeable influences is the iPad. That stands in contrast to the Mac platform. And the App Store is the only way to reach and interact with Apple’s customer base (something that is under antitrust investigation by the EU Commission), Apple has set its own rules for entry into the App Store, from earning income through the functionality, to the look and style of your apps. This was a high-profile case, but not a unique case. We’ve seen this recently with Basecamp’s Hey email app and the problems it has navigating Apple’s App Store policies, especially around the functionality of the app that Apple wanted to see and Basecamp’s use of an external payment service that was not Apple’s (where Apple collects thirty percent of the revenue). Apple believes that users should not be concerned, but what is good for Apple is not always good for developers or consumers. One of the first visible steps is to remove Boot Camp and reduce the flexibility of Mac hardware. People try the Microsoft Surface Pro X, Wednesday, Oct.
