This should work to get an Apple SuperDrive working on any modern Windows version, including Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10. You must be in Windows to run and install the actual Bootcamp Drivers for SuperDrive, however. These steps are intended to be from taken from Windows, however you could download the Boot Camp Support Software on a Mac and then transfer the zip file to Windows through USB, networking, or your method of choice if need be, or you could just extract the “\Bootcamp\Drivers\Apple\ AppleODDInstaller64.exe” (note it will be labeled “AppleODDInstaller.exe” if it’s 32-bit version) file on a Mac and transfer that exe installer to Windows.

Run the AppleODDInstaller64.exe executable file to install the appropriate drivers for Apple SuperDrive in Windows.From the unzipped “Bootcamp5” folder, navigate to \Bootcamp\Drivers\Apple\ and locate “AppleODDInstaller64.exe”.

Download the Boot Camp Support Software zip file and unzip it on the computer.Go here to to the Apple Support Downloads site and locate the latest version of “Boot Camp Support Software” ( or newer).Boot into Windows, or get on the Windows PC trying to use SuperDrive if you have not done so already.The steps below outline installing Apple SuperDrive drivers for Windows so that the SuperDrive will function as expected: Whatever the scenario, if you’re trying to use an Apple SuperDrive with Windows and it’s not working as expected, try the steps below to get the SuperDrive functioning in Windows. If you used Disk Utility from macOS Recovery, you can now restart your Mac: choose Apple menu > Restart.But SuperDrive does not always work with Windows PC right away however, and sometimes the Apple SuperDrive either doesn’t function as expected, won’t accept a disc, or is not properly recognized in Windows, whether running natively on PC, or a Mac through Boot Camp, or a virtual machine either. The order of repair in this example was Macintosh HD - Data, then Macintosh HD, then Container disk4, then APPLE SSD. Keep moving up the list, running First Aid for each volume on the disk, then each container on the disk, then finally the disk itself. If you're asked for a password to unlock the disk, enter your administrator password.Īfter Disk Utility is done checking the volume, select the next item above it in the sidebar, then run First Aid again.If the button is dimmed and you can't click it, skip this step for the disk, container, or volume you selected.If there is no Run button, click the Repair Disk button instead.In this example, the last volume on the disk is Macintosh HD - Data.Ĭlick Run to begin checking the selected volume for errors.

For each disk that you're repairing, start by selecting the last volume on that disk, then click the First Aid button or tab.
