    I have successfully installed and run win 8.1 on my Mac Air (256gb). I have an iso Microsoft Office 2013 file (and several other Msft apps) downloaded to the Mac Hard drive. I cannot install these apps to my Win 8.1 Virtual disk.

    I am probably doing something basically wrong and would appreciate any advice on how to install MSFT apps into a win 8.1 virtual disk .... please?

    Thanks!!

    Installing an ISO to a VM

    Allow me to answer my own question <G>! I don't know pif this is the "correct" way to handle this issue, but it worked for me after several hours of experimentation. Finders>Utilities>Disk Utility brought me to a screen where I could click on the External Drive containing the iso file and then click on the "Mount" button. Away she went and I was then able to click on the setup.exe file on the ISO and successfully installed Office 2013, Project and Visio.

    Hope this helps someone?
