Hey folks,
i buyed a windows 7 home premium 64bit version and try to install it with bootcamp but it always says "Your bootable USB drive could not be created."
I tried so many things...take another usb-medium...using another usb-port...download the iso from another side instead of the link i get from the shop but i always get these message.
pls help
thx
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), late 2013
Can you open the other ISO without any issues?
This message screens up only the first time. When i open it the second time there is know message or issue.
Can you re-try BCA since you are not seeing the message again? Also, please check Applications -> Utilities -> Console logs for errors.
After i open the Iso i get the same issue in BCA...
Ok i really don't know what do you need from the Console (what i have to do?)
big thanks!!!
In Console in the top right box (with the magnifying glass) enter "boot" and search.
This is what i get. Thanks and hope you can see anything :-)
Can you post the output of diskutil list and diskutil cs list?
I never had any problem with my apple product...pls say what i actually have to do ;-)
Go To applications -> Utilities -> Terminal. Triple-click on each of the following lines, use Command+C (Copy) and Command+V (Paste) in the Terminal window and post the output of each command.
diskutil list
diskutil cs list
diskutil list:

Is /dev/disk2 an external Optical drive?
Yes it is but i did´t plug it in....just sometime if i need it.
If you have a Windows physical DVD, please use Boot Camp: Creating an ISO image from a Windows installation DVD - Apple Support and create a new ISO. Test this new ISO with BCA to see if it will process this ISO. If it does, the other ISO that you have is probably corrupted.
I get the same issue like the time before.
Maybe i should install OS X new?
Can you run a Disk Utility Repair and an SMC reset - Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support?
