Problems regarding downloading bootcamp 4

Hi,

So I want to use bootcamp assistant to install Windows 7 on an old iMac 20" from mid 2007.

Apparently I have to download the Bootcamp version 4, but I can't download it because Apple's website doesn't work.

Any suggestions to where else I could get it? And do you think it is a mistake that it doesn't work?

I was able to access it for just a couple of days ago...

Here's the link: Boot Camp Support Software 4.0.4033

I got it from this website: System requirements to install Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp - Apple Support

Thanks

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8), Bootcamp

Bootcamp Assistant is bundled with OSX and can be found in Applications -> Utilities -> Bootcamp Assistant. You have an old link which is causing too many redirects for the browser (Safari and Firefox). Let Apple update the links and correct them. BCA can also download the support software directly.

Thanks for your reply man.

How do I let apple update the links? I mean is there a way that I can let them know about the problem?

And also, whenever I try to update it through BCA on this old iMac it doesn't work... It says that the update is not available.

It's all quite weird tbh, and I also tried to download it from MacUpdate.com, however this didn't work either.

Here's the link from MacUpdate: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/47328/apple-boot-camp-support

It appears to be a legit website: Is MacUpdate.com/ a legitimate site?

I suggest providing Support Feedback to Apple from their Contact Us page - https://www.apple.com/support/contact/.
