I've quit Boot Camp and re-opened it. I've restarted my computer. I have no updates available. I've reinstalled Maverics and also downloaded Boot camp from a third party. Nothing seems to work. I have a MacBook Pro (Retina Late 2013) and have OSX 10.9 installed.
I've also followed many other threads that have been "resolved" but non of which actually fix this problem.
PLEASE HELP!
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9), Late 2013
I came back after an hour since I started boot camp and it had finished. Sorry to waste your time mende1. For anyone who needs help I'd give it a while because windows is a big OS. (ISO is around 4GB and uncompressed is around 20GB) Good luck to anyone who had this problem.

I've solved my issue now, I was using an external SSD to run OS X Yosemite but switched back to the Internal Mac HDD running OS X Mavericks and ran Boot camp from there and it worked!
A random solution for me but at least it worked.
I've done this process twice and both times it took 2+ hours but finally completed. It looks like it is not moving, but files are still transferring. I would recommend plugging in the power cord and letting it finish overnight. BTW, having both Windows and OSX installed has made this my favorite computer ever!
If anyone is still on this thread then I found that you can view how far it really is done by going to Applications>Utilities>Activity Monitor>Disk then find Boot Camp Assistant among the list and under bytes written tab compare that to the iso size and for example it is a 4GB iso and the bytes written are 3GB then it would be 75% done the part of coping the windows files to the usb. This as expected takes ages so just be patient
Are you trying to install Windows from a USB drive or DVD? If you have got the USB drive or DVD with Windows, make sure the option to create a USB drive is unticked when you open Boot Camp Assistant.
The Late 2013 MacBook Pro needs special Boot Camp drivers that can only be downloaded from Boot Camp Assistant, so remove the drivers you downloaded, close Boot Camp Assistant, open it again and start the download again. This process may take up to an hour, depending on your Internet connection.
Then, the installation should start. Follow these steps > http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf
right click the drive you are installing on and select 'get info'. You will see the data used going up. i hope this helps you.
Hi,
Can someone help me my bootcamp assistant is stucked at 75%. I waited for hours still no progress, I also cancel the progress, restart my mac and reprocess the download and it is still stucking at 75% after waiting for several hours.
Any Help ????
trying the same, already the 2nd time now. Its not moving since 10 minutes.
Is it only about patience?
Since this is a 'utility', i'd appreciate a geek mode, which shows some activity information inline, i.e. what files are being copied, so one can see there is stuff happening.
Thanks apple!
I have the same issue but instead after around 30 mins being stuck at around 50% I get this:
I have tried several times to no avail. At first I thought it was a fault of the ISO but I have tried 3 different ISOs (Win7, Win8 and Win8.1) and I get the same issue.
I am running Yosemite official release (not beta)
Glad you have fixed your issue

Wow, really good tip about using Activity Monitor. Never thought to look there to see the progress of something like this.
Boot camp is stuck copying Windows files.
