I'm currently using Boot Camp Assistant v5.0.0, and OS X 10.8.2. Help! What can I do to solve this network problem? Please and thank you (:

  • Need help with Boot camp assistant!!! (partitioning disk)

    when i click partition disk in boot camp asistan after 5 minuts this message appears:
    *+Verification failed. This disk could not be partitioned.+*
    +Use Disk Utility to repair this disk.+
    anyone know how to fix this??
    i really want bootcamp!

    Yes. Your directory is damaged and needs to be repaired. Boot up to your original gray iMac install Disk but instead of going through the install process, after you select the language go up to the top under the Utilities Menu and open Disk Utility. Select your hard drive on the left hand side and under the First Aid tab click Repair Disk.

  • Help with boot camp assistant

    i start using the bootcamp assistant but then could not find my windows CD... now, until i find one i would like to keep using my mac regulary but it wont load the OSX as well... it just gives a black screen and states that there is no boot disk in...

    Boot your Mac while holding down the Alt/Option-key until the Boot Selection screen is shown.
    Choose your OSX to boot from.
    Once in OSX go to System Preferences - Startup Volume and set your OSX to be the default.
    Either stick with the done partitioning or use the BootCamp Assistant to revert the partioning and revert back to one OSX volume.

    Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • Need help with Boot Camp and Win 7

    I have iMac 27" (iMac11,1) 2.8 GHz, quad core, 8MB of L3, 8GB of Memory, Boot ROM Version IM111.0034.B02 and SMC Version 1.54f36 and can't get this machine to run Windows 7 using Boot Camp.  I have successfully loaded Win 7 but when it claims to be starting I only get a black screen after initial start up.
    I have checked and rechecked my software updates and have read and reread the instructions, however, I can't update my Boot Camp to 3.1 (my machine says i'm running 3.0.4) and I need 3.1 but can't load 3.1 because it is an exe file that has to be loaded into Windows after I load Windows but can't open Windows because I can't load Boot Camp 3.1.  That's my excuse anyway, so I'm missing something I just can't figure out what it is....this is where you come in!
    Thanks.

    Mike,
    I'm not going to be much help with Boot Camp however I can direct you to the Boot Camp forum where there are more people that know how to troubleshoot it and Windoze 7. You can find it at:

    Get a Virtual Macine software program, Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox, and install XP in a virtual machine.
    You can't install XP in a Boot Camp Partition with Lion or Mt Lion, only Win 7.

  • How do I install Windows XP with boot camp assistant, on my IMac?

    How do I install Windows XP with boot camp assistant, on my IMac?

    Lion cannot BootCamp XP.
    You can install XP under virtual machine software (Parallels, VM Fusion, VirtualBox).
    And Windows 7 Pro has XP mode.  XP will requires probably days of pathing after install and will be completely unsupported by MS within 1 year, but Windows 7 Pro still has great support from MS.

  • Boot Camp Assistant won't read my windows 7 professional installation dvd, HELP!!

    Hi Guys,

    Boot Camp doesn't install the drivers. You have the drivers on a separate USB device if you followed directions. Once in Windows connect the USB drive with the driver software. It should startup automatically and install the drivers.
    You don't even need to do that. As downloading the drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant can be unreliable, it is better to get the package directly from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638
    Copy the .zip file to a USB flash drive or burn it to a DVD in OS X. Install Windows as normal, insert the flash drive/DVD in Windows, copy the .zip file to the hard drive, extract it, then run the setup executable.

  • I need help with boot camp. "Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again."

    This message appears every time I try to partition my disk:
    "Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again."
    I verified my Macintosh HD disk on Disk utility and then tried to repair it, but I am unable to click the repair button.
    It says it's not available because the startup disk is selected.
    I don't know what to do or how to go about both these problems.
    Please, any suggestions?

    Your OSX psrtition and your Boot Camp partition are completely separate. You can reinstall Mavericks without affecting Boot Camp and you can redo Boot Camp without affacting OSX.

  • I'm trying to install Windows 7 on my MacBook with Boot Camp Assistant

    I'm trying to use Boot Camp assistant to install Windows 7. I have a disk, I've done everything right, but for some reason, whenever I click Install on the final Boot Camp prompt, it only gets as far as the Windows is loading files... part after it reboots to the Windows hard drive. I've tried everything, but it still won't work. Im using a 13" MacBook Pro with Retina. It has the latest software version (OS X 10.9.1) and I have a USB with Windows Support Software. The disk is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    I've been trying for the last two days, and I really need help!
    Thanks.

    I solved my own problem. I just kept trying, and eventually it worked!

  • Help with boot camp partition on leopard!

    So I wanted to increase my partition disc size, because I ran out of space. So I restored it and started the whole process over again, using like 75 out of the 102 gigs of free space. This time, something went wrong. I window came up and said:
    "The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved. Back up the disk and use the disk utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended(journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again."
    All I want to do is repartition it... I need help plz, thanks. Oh and I assumed the big files were obstacles so I deleted some 1-6 gig stuff I used to use not anymore(not any system stuff either) but that didn't work. Help!

    I bought a new MacBook today with Leopard. I tried to install Windows XP (with service pack 2). I chose 32GB for windows. When I clicked start installation the screen went white, the windows CD was ejected and nothing else happened.
    I had to switch it off manually and then I tried to restart the MacBook. The screen was just black.
    I just read this:
    +This means that the Windows partition is not bootable, usually because of a formatting problem. The Boot Camp Setup Assistant creates the Boot Camp partition, but the Windows installer must format it. Boot back into Mac OS X and re run the Boot Camp Setup Assistant. Remove the partition and re create it. Then install Windows again, this time allowing Windows to format the partition. Refer to the "Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide" PDF document for more detail on installing Boot Camp.+
    I couldn't reboot it into the Mac OS X so I went back to PC World and created merry ****.
    They blamed me and I blamed them and said there was a formatting problem. I left the MacBook with them and they said they would try and install windows XP for me. I collect it today.
    What do I do if they can't get windows on there as I don't really understand what I read above so will need something a bit clearer....step-by-step.
    Can anyone help me please?

  • Quick help with boot camp parition

    ok well i had to uninstall the Boot Camp partition a few months ago due to some problems, now i want to put it back on BUT, when i click partition... after a little while this message pops up:
    The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved.
    Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again.
    i did repartition this hard drive but i keep getting that message. if you could plz help me...anyone...

    Since the time that you restored your disk to a single partition and now, Mac OS files have scattered across your hard drive making it impossible to repartition.
    Some suggestions:
    • Search these forums for suggestions given to all those who have posted this question before.
    • Try a smaller partition, if your desired Windows use permits. It's possible that the scattering of your Mac OS files does not extend across the entire hard drive.
    • Buy a program which will defragment your hard drive, and run it.
    • Clone your hard drive (or make a Time Machine backup), then reformat and restore, as per the error message.
