How to Convert DMG Image to ISO format in Windows?

Hello There,FWIW, I Had The Exact Same Problem, Migrating From A 2012 MBP Retina To A 2015 One.What Eventually Worked Was Using A Different Browser...

I googled this and it does seem like.dmg files not mounting is a problem sometimes with Snow Leopard. Only possible (but temporary) solution I saw that might work is to try to open the file with Disk Utility. DMG files are Mac OS X disk image files. When users try to access DMG files, sometimes the “DMG not verified” error message appears on their screen. This error mainly occurs due to corruption or an incomplete download. Most users don’t know how to fix errors in DMG file. While DMG files are Mac-specific and not intended for use in Windows, there are several Windows programs that can extract their contents or convert them to other formats. Some programs include 7-Zip, PeaZip, and DMG2IMG. NOTE: The DMG format replaced the.IMG file format, which was previously used in Mac OS Classic.

  1. First head over to this website and grab yourself a copy of dmg2img by clicking on the win32 binary link. Extract the contents of the downloaded dmg2img-1.6.5-win32.zip file to a new folder.
  2. Open a Command Prompt and then use the cd command to navigate to the folder where you extracted the dmg2img file.
  3. Now use the following command syntax to convert your DMG file:

    dmg2img.exe {source file.dmg} {destination file.iso}

    In my example I want to convert a Mac installer image called Apple.Mac.OSX.v10.7.Lion.dmg, and save the converted ISO as mac.iso, so my command would be:

    dmg2img.exe c:Apple.Mac.OSX.v10.7.Lion.dmg c:mac.iso

  4. After a few minutes of processing, your DMG will be converted to ISO format. You can then burn the ISO image to your disc or mount it to CD drive for your own purpose in Windows.
