Boot Camp Mac Book Pro Can Boot to Win 8.1 but not Mavericks

My Mac Book Pro Mavericks partition is damaged and I cannot boot to it, I can boot to Windows 8.1 without any issues.    Disk repair did not fix the problem, any suggestions?   I also tried using Migration Assistant to from my iMac to the Mac Book pro, had no luck there either, since Migration assistant being run on the iMac could not find another Mac. 

You can upgrade to Windows 8.1 for free. Just open the Windows Store in Windows 8 and you will see an option to download Windows 8.1 update. The update may take several hours.

  • Mac Book Pro mid 2010, bought the Mountain Lion but not included with iPhoto?

    My friend bought the mountain lion yesterday, but iphoto and photostream not included in package?(model, mid 2010) Need to buy separate? If this so, why mine(model june 2012) just upgraded, have iPhoto with it?Any help will be appreciated

    Do you still have the install discs from your original 2009 computer? It comes with two discs, the applications and the OS X install disc. You need the applications disc that has the installer. I used those on mine, then manually upgraded the 9.0 to 9.1, then 9.3.2.
    9.1 update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1322
    9.3.2 update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1562
    Some people lost their discs in the past, and have ventured to talk to the Apple store. May be worth trying if you cannot find the discs. No guarantee of help though.

  • After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.

    After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.
    This is boot camp problem, because in other normal notebooks (e.g. SONY VAIO, Lenovo with Windows 7) the gadgets are working normally.
    I am attaching the screen shot of Desktop Gadgets and Security updates of Windows 7.
    Kindly solve this issue ASAP.

    Have you reinstalled the latest Boot Camp Windows 7 drivers, just in case Microsoft overwrote some of them during the Windows 7 security update?

  • Mac book pro can detect wifi but not DNS server

    MMy Mac book pro will detect the wifi at school but it won't detect the DNS server meaning that I cannot access the internet! Help!

    If the Mac connects to the Wi-Fi network but webpages do not finish loading while using Safari, it may be a DNS issue, try the following:
    System Preferences>Network>Select Wi-fi on the left and click on "Advanced..">select DNS tab>add 8.8.8.8 bellow DNS servers>click on OK then Apply.
    If thats not the case, please specify to us why you think the mac does not recognize DNS server.

  • Whats does mac book pro apple care exactly over? everthing but lost or stolen?

    mac book pro apple care exactly over? everthing but lost or stolen?

    It's hardware coverage of factory defects to three years from the date of purchase of the machine + phone support.
    You can buy it within the one year standard warranty, but it's still only three years max.
    Doesn't cover software issues, data recovery, user damage, accidents or thefts.  OS X may be reinstalled in the repair process but really doesn't count as fixing software issues.
    It's sort of mandatory, as eventually one will upgrade OS X and a firmware update can brick a logicboard by exposing unknown flaws or drivers for video cards causing issues.
    Never upgrade OS X without AppleCare in place as Apple has multiple points of potential failure on the logicboard, the parts are not more seperated like on PC's and thus cheaper to fix.
    A new logicboard out of applecare is prohibitive, you'll be better off buying a new machine.

  • Running mountain lion os 10.8.5 on mac book pro mid 2012 build.  If I upgrade to Mavericks will MS Office programs still work?

    I am running mountain lion os 10.8.5 on mac book pro mid 2012 build.  If I upgrade to Mavericks will MS Office programs still work?  There does not appear to be an updated version of MS Office for Mac past 2011 that I bought last year and am using now.  Thoughts? Suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Office 2008 and 2011 will run on Mavericks, but you may not be able to get the installer for it at this time.

    I think that an acceptance letter from any university would entitle you to a university discount.
