Install Apple MacBook Pro (13' Late 2013) laptop drivers for Windows 7 x64, or download DriverPack Solution software for automatic drivers intallation and update. Mar 12, 2020 If you use Boot Camp to run Windows on your Mac, you can visit the AMD website to download the latest version of their drivers for Windows. These Mac computers use AMD graphics: 15-inch MacBook Pro introduced in 2015 or later; 27-inch iMac introduced in 2014 or later; 21.5-inch iMac with Retina display introduced in 2017 or later. Mar 27, 2017 Sorry guys, but i'm a newbie to Apple Macbooks. I got last month a new macbook pro 15 inch. I was planning to use bootcamp to install windows. Now what do you mean by graphics switching under windows? I believe you mean switching between the HD4000 iGPU and the Nvidia dGPU. Trackpad is the world's first alternate Windows driver for Apple Multi Touch and Force Touch trackpads of the Apple Macbook, Macbook Pro / Retina and Air notebooks. Trackpad driver easily and automatically integrates itself with the Apple Boot Camp drivers, and comes with a Trackpad Control Module, the comprehensive control panel: Latest.

There is no mistaking the 'Late 2013' Mac Pro models for earlier ones as they present an Apple described 'radical' departure from the large, highly expandable tower case design of yore and instead feature a compact dark gray, glossy cylinder design that is approximately one eighth of the mass but has limited internal expansion.
Apple explains that these 'Space Gray' cylinder Mac Pro models are 'designed around an innovative unified thermal core' and have not only faster processors than earlier models but also dual workstation class graphics processors, faster memory, and faster PCIe 2.0 x4 flash storage. Instead of internal expansion, the system provides extensive high speed ports for external connectivity options.
The Mac Pro 'Twelve Core' 2.7 (Late 2013) is a 'configure-to-order' configuration of either the Mac Pro 'Quad Core' 3.7 (Late 2013), Mac Pro 'Six Core' 3.5 (Late 2013), or Mac Pro 'Eight Core' 3.0 (Late 2013). However, note that the 'Quad Core' model was discontinued and the 'Eight Core' model only became a standard configuration possible to custom configure on April 4, 2017. Other than processor, this model can be identical to the stock models.
The Mac Pro 'Twelve Core' 2.7 (Late 2013) is powered by a single 2.7 GHz Twelve Core 22-nm Xeon E5-2697v2 processor with a dedicated 256k of level 2 cache for each core and 30 MB of level 3 'Smart Cache.' If otherwise equipped as the default models, this configuration has 12 GB or 16 GB of 1866 MHz DDR3 ECC SDRAM, a 256 GB SSD, and dual AMD FirePro D300, D500, or D700 graphics processors with 2 GB, 3 GB, or 6 GB of GDDR5 memory each, respectively.
Connectivity includes six Thunderbolt 2 ports, one HDMI 1.4 UltraHD port, 4 USB 3.0 ports, and Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports in addition to 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0.
Originally, this model reportedly supported as many as three 4K displays or six Thunderbolt displays. However, on June 16, 2015, without updating the graphics cards themselves, Apple quietly increased the official support to as many as three 5K displays (5120x2880) -- two using Thunderbolt 2 ports and one using the HDMI port. The support for as many as six 2560x1600 displays using all six Thunderbolt 2 ports remained unchanged.

| Introduction Date: | October 22, 2013* | Discontinued Date: | December 10, 2019 |
| Details: | The 'Introduction Date' refers to the date a model was introduced via press release. The 'Discontinued Date' refers to the date a model either was replaced by a subsequent system or production otherwise ended. *This system first was revealed as a 'sneak peak' on June 10, 2013 (but with limited specifics), 'introduced' in more detail on October 22, 2013, became available for purchase on December 19, 2013, and first shipped on December 30, 2013. On April 4, 2017, as part of what effectively amounted to an atypical apology from Apple about the direction of its professional Mac hardware, this custom configuration had its price slashed significantly.

What you need to install Windows 10 on Mac
- MacBook introduced in 2015 or later
- MacBook Air introduced in 2012 or later
- MacBook Pro introduced in 2012 or later
- Mac mini introduced in 2012 or later
- iMac introduced in 2012 or later1
- iMac Pro (all models)
- Mac Pro introduced in 2013 or later
The latest macOS updates, which can include updates to Boot Camp Assistant. You will use Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 10.
64GB or more free storage space on your Mac startup disk:
- Your Mac can have as little as 64GB of free storage space, but at least 128GB of free storage space provides the best experience. Automatic Windows updates require that much space or more.
- If you have an iMac Pro or Mac Pro with 128GB of memory (RAM) or more, your startup disk needs at least as much free storage space as your Mac has memory.2
An external USB flash drive with a storage capacity of 16GB or more, unless you're using a Mac that doesn't need a flash drive to install Windows.
A 64-bit version of Windows 10 Home or Windows 10 Pro on a disk image (ISO) or other installation media. If installing Windows on your Mac for the first time, this must be a full version of Windows, not an upgrade.
- If your copy of Windows came on a USB flash drive, or you have a Windows product key and no installation disc, download a Windows 10 disk image from Microsoft.
- If your copy of Windows came on a DVD, you might need to create a disk image of that DVD.
How to install Windows 10 on Mac
To install Windows, use Boot Camp Assistant, which is included with your Mac.
1. Use Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows partition
Open Boot Camp Assistant, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder. Then follow the onscreen instructions.
- If you're asked to insert a USB drive, plug your USB flash drive into your Mac. Boot Camp Assistant will use it to create a bootable USB drive for Windows installation.
- When Boot Camp Assistant asks you to set the size of the Windows partition, remember the minimum storage-space requirements in the previous section. Set a partition size that meets your needs, because you can't change its size later.
2. Format the Windows (BOOTCAMP) partition
When Boot Camp Assistant finishes, your Mac restarts to the Windows installer. If the installer asks where to install Windows, select the BOOTCAMP partition and click Format. In most cases, the installer selects and formats the BOOTCAMP partition automatically.
3. Install Windows
Unplug any external devices that aren't necessary during installation. Then click Next and follow the onscreen instructions to begin installing Windows.
4. Use the Boot Camp installer in Windows
After Windows installation completes, your Mac starts up in Windows and opens a ”Welcome to the Boot Camp installer” window. Follow the onscreen instructions to install Boot Camp and Windows support software (drivers). You will be asked to restart when done.
- If the Boot Camp installer never opens, open the Boot Camp installer manually and use it to complete Boot Camp installation.
- If you have an external display connected to a Thunderbolt 3 port on your Mac, the display will be blank (black, gray, or blue) for up to 2 minutes during installation.
How to switch between Windows and macOS
Restart, then press and hold the Option (or Alt) ⌥ key during startup to switch between Windows and macOS.
