How To Change Iso To Dmg File

DMG is Apple's file format for disk image, similar to ISO for Windows. It offers an easy information sharing and software distribution for Mac users. But it's not an user-friendly format for Windows since .dmg file can not be natively handled, such as burning DMG to USB. For that reason, no matter what platform you're using, you will need to first convert the DMG into ISO so that it can be used on a Windows machine. We've shown you how to do this on three different platforms: Linux, Mac and Windows.

One thing to remember about this process is that DMG files won't always work for software installations after converting them to ISO. The reason is that applications have to be designed differently for Windows and Mac, and they're not interchangeable. However, you can use this method to extract the contents of the file once it has been converted to ISO. For media and other content types, this is an ideal way to do it.

It is a disk image burning software that can be used to convert DMG File to ISO on Windows. You can also directly burn DMG Files to a CD/DVD using this software. Jan 15, 2020  A DMG file is a Mac OS X system disk image file. Just as the ISO file use in Windows system installations, the files with DMG extension also use on Mac systems. Apple Mac OS X uses the files with.dmg extensions to install a software. If we explain what is the DMG file briefly, the DMG file extension only is used on the Apple MacOS systems.

Terminal: The command line input is different from what you would use for Windows. It uses the hdutil program to convert the DMG file into its ISO equivalent. Open a Terminal instance by clicking Applications >Utilities >Terminal.

In the Terminal window, execute this command: hdiutil convert /path/to/example.dmg -format UDTO -o /path/to/example.iso

Be sure to put in the right source and destination files with their complete file paths in the above command. Your ISO file will be ready once you hit Enter.

Disk Utility: Open Disk Utility from Applications >Utilities. Mount the DMG file by double-clicking on it. You will now be able to see it within Disk Utility. The DMG mount must be right-clicked, after which you can choose 'Convert' in the context menu.

In the next dialog box, click on 'DVD/CD Master' when asked to specify the image format. Now hit 'Save'. Locate the saved file, which will be a .cdr file. You can now rename the file and change the file extension from .cdr to .iso.

Part 3: How to Convert DMG to ISO on Windows

To convert a DMG file to ISO in Windows, you will need a special utility. The one we've shown here is called dmg2img, and it can be run from the command line to convert one format to the other. IMG is Apple's old disk image format, which transitioned into DMG with Mac OS X. However, we don't need the IMG format, since we're going to convert the DMG directly into ISO with this method. Follow the steps described below:

Step 1: Download the win32 binary for the application from this page.

Step 2: Go to the Downloads folder in File Explorer and right-click on the zipped file. In the context menu, click on 'Extract All…'

Step 3: Extract it to the same folder (Downloads), then right-click the Downloads folder while holding down the Shift key. This will show another context menu, where you can click on 'Open command window here.'

Step 4: At the command prompt, enter the following command and then Enter: dmg2img source.dmg destination.iso

Step 5: The above command should be modified to include the file path with file name for both the source and destination files. You can choose to create the ISO in the same Downloads folder, or another location of your choosing.

Summary

These different ways are designed to help you convert DMG into ISO, which can then be used on a Windows machine, including ISO burning, editing, creation, etc. There are several other workarounds for this, but be cautious when using unknown software. If the DMG file is corrupted during the conversion process, the resulting ISO file will be unusable. To make sure there are no problems, only use the command line input or a trusted application for this purpose. If you'd rather not risk using command prompt or free software, there are several premium tools that can help you convert DMG to ISO on Windows, Mac and Linux computers.
