Q: Bootcamp Bootable Usb Drive Could Not Be Created
Hello, I am trying to install windows 10, I downloaded the iso from microsofts website and already got the bootcamp support software on my usb, i tried to install windows 10 with the iso but it says "Bootable Usb Drive could not be created" then under it it says that it only supports windows 7 or higher versions, so I assumed it was my iso image, so I Re downloaded it and it did not work, I did unmount and eject my iso image mutiple times, did restart computer, I was thinking maybe i should reinstall bootcamp but not too sure what the problem is. Please help!

Hello hawkstrattus,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand from your post that you are not able to install Windows 10 on your MacBook Air. From your post, I see you are running OS X Mountain Lion. Windows 10 requires OS X Yosemite or later. You may want to consider upgrading your MacBook Air software. The following article has additional information on the system requirements:
Use Windows 10 on your Mac with Boot Camp
