I'm trying to use bootcamp, I bought Winodws 7 and got the iso in an archive but can't open it. I get this message "This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification."
Got a tip for us?

I've watched numerous videos, in all of them the iso looks like a .dmg but mine is a yellow icon that says archive on it but the file ends in .iso. I've tried just putting that onto a flash drive and using it for bootcamp but I get an error message about no bootable device.
You need to run this program from Microsoft http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool in order to create a bootable usb install from the ISO file you have. Download the program and follow the instructions, once it's completed close the program and then begin the bootcamp process again and all should be fine.
You're using the bootcamp assistant to do this? It should just copy the iso files into a USB stick and take it from there. If that isn't working then maybe your ISO is corrupt and you should grab a fresh copy from MS:

Oops, sorry. Yeah this will need to be ran on a windows machine first, I believe there is a way for bootcamp to do this itself but I've never had any success using it, maybe someone else on here can explain how. But if you have access to a pc running windows then I'd go that route to save any hassle.
