Sorry if this is a dumb question I don't know much. I am trying to get Windows 7 to run so I downloaded the Windows 7 Professional iso. When I try to burn it to a dvd with disk utility though I get an error: "Unable to attach 'Windows7Professional64bit.iso' (not recognized)" and I don't know why.... Any ideas? Thanks so much in advance
 
It sounds like the ISO could possibly be corrupted. You could try and download a freeware program like "Burn"
http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/Pages/English/home.html
and see if it is able to burn the ISO to a disc. If it is unable to, my best guess is the ISO you downloaded is corrupted and would try downloading the ISO again or get it from another source.
 
Press the right mouse button and then press the option button to reveal the "open with" command.
I could offer to download the programs you need and upload them as ZIP instead of DMG.
