Download and Install Windows 10 on MAC OS Sierra using Bootcamp without USB Drive *These models use the internal drive to temporarily store what you need to install Windows, so they don't require a USB flash drive: MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015) MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015) MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015) MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2016) iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, Late 2015) iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2015) iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015) iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Mid 2015) Mac Pro (Late 2013) https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201468 WIN 10 ISO Download page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10ISO Please see below how to create a bootable WIN 10 USB or DVD Drive that can be used in Bootcamp. (for MAC Models that require a USB or DVD Drive) 1. While your Mac is started from OS X, insert the Windows installation DVD in an external optical USB drive or connect your Windows USB drive to a USB port on your Mac. 2. After the installation media mounts in the Finder, open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder (choose Go - Utilities). 3. Select the USB optical drive or Windows flash drive so it's highlighted in the Disk Utility window. 4. Choose File - New Image, and then select your Windows DVD or flash drive from the submenu. 5. Choose DVD/CD master from the Image Format menu, then choose none from the Encryption menu. 6. Give the new file a name, then click Save. If prompted, enter an administrator user name and password. A progress bar appears while the image file is created (it might take some time to create the image file). 7. After imaging is done, eject your Windows installation disc or flash drive. If you're using an external optical drive, disconnect it from the USB port after the disc ejects. 8. From the Finder, locate the disk image file you created earlier. Single click on it to select it, then press the Enter or Return key on your keyboard to rename the file. Change the disk image file extension from .cdr to .iso. When prompted, click "Use .iso" to verify this change. Make sure your device is removable When creating an ISO image or copying drivers to a USB flash drive, make sure the device you're using works as a removable drive. Some devices mount as a fixed storage device and can't be ejected. Connect your flash drive or SD Card, then try to eject it from the Finder. If you don't see an option to eject the drive in the Finder sidebar, this device can’t be used to install Windows. After you've created your ISO file, use Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows on your Mac. Make sure you have all three tasks selected: ✓ Create a Windows 8 or later install disk ✓ Download the latest Windows support software from Apple ✓ Install Windows 8 or later version When you click Continue, Boot Camp Assistant prompts you to locate the ISO file you created. Select it and click OK to begin installing Windows. Apple Link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203909 Start up from macOS Recovery To start up from macOS Recovery, hold down Command (⌘)-R immediately after turning on or restarting your Mac. Release when you see the Apple logo. If you can't start up from macOS Recovery, try holding down Option-Command-R to start up from macOS Internet Recovery*.

  3. Hi. I have some issues.Can you help me please? I can't pass this step: Which type of installation do you want? I choose Upgrade: Install Windows and keep files, settings, and applications, and next is : " The computer started using the installation media. Remove the installation media and restart your computer so that Windows starts normally.Then, insert the installation media and restart the upgrade." But i can't do anything on this step, when i close the windows, start again with the INSTALL NOW. Thanks!
