Boot Camp Windows 7 fails to restart/shut down properly

Hey everyone,
I'm having a huge issue right now with Boot Camp. I don't know what the root of my problem is or what is influencing it, but I'm at the end of my patience because I've already removed AND repartitioned my 15'' MacBook Pro Retina's hard drive more than 3 times using the Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 7 Professional.
So this is my scenario in a nutshell...after partitioning my drive and installing Windows 7 Professional using Boot Camp, I boot into Windows and am installing all the software and updates that I want so that I can have a clean Windows image than I can work and restore from (using Winclone 3) in the event I have to migrate or reinstall my entire Mac OS X operating system. Hopefully what I'm trying to do sounds very simple.
My problem...after a certain point of installing a ridiculous amount of Windows updates (or a certain 3rd party software maybe), when I select to restart or shut down WIndows, it will go to the pre-shut down/restart screen (you know, the Windows login screen), do all its prelimary stuff, show the "Shutting Down" status and then IT WILL NOT SHUT DOWN! It will just stay on that screen forever! I verified this because I left it on overnight and when I awoke the next morning, it was STILL there!
Does anyone have any ideas?! I'm going crazy because I reinstalled Windows like 3 friggin' times and it takes a LONG time (as you know) to get and update everything. Sorry if I said any mean words, but I am very frustrated and out of patience for this.
Thank you guys for any input/help with this.
P.S. After creating a Boot Camp partition and installing Windows, should I be seeing the Windows partition as a startup disk candidate on the Startup Disk list under System Preferences on OS X?

There is a BootCamp specific forum, you may get the experts over there.

I have asked iTunes to print a cover and get a Windows failed and it shuts down iTunes. The iTunes support asks for a serial number. My previous iTunes won't print CD cover is what started this. I have removed and reinstalled the iTunes, Quick Time etc

I have removed and reinstalled iTunes Version 11, Quick Time, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device, Bonjour, and Apple Applications Support. I received this instruction from "http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. I reinstalled Version 11 and it still will not print the CD covers and shuts down sometimes when I ask it to print. I hope they will find a way to make it work.

Well my first guess was wrong. The line that failed is the one that writes out the image to disk. I've not revisited the code for that script for ages, but it seems I did add in an extra test for missing files a little while later, then forgot to upload the change. I can reproduce the error message if I deliberately rename a file to confuse iTunes so that seems the most likely reason for your problem with the script. I've uploaded a new build of CreateFolderArt which should work better.
See FindTracks for a tool to repair broken links. You should probably get that issue fixed first.

Help undoing Boot Camp Windows 7 install -- "no bootable device"?

I think there's some residual stuff from a Boot Camp install I need help getting rid of. Let me explain what happened so you'll understand what's wrong:
Ok so I set up Boot Camp utility to partition a 32 GB partition for Windows. I have a 250 GB hard drive, but when there were 32 GB in the Windows partition Boot Camp utility said that it would allocate 200 to Mac. I didn't really think of it, but what happened to the other 18 GB? Anyway, I tried installing Windows 7 (64 bit). After it installed, I was having trouble installing the boot camp drivers, so I decided to scrap Windows 7.
I shut down Windows and turned on the Mac, but it booted into 7. Weird. So I restarted again, this time holding the Option key, to get into Mac. I went into the Boot Camp utility and chose to restore the Mac partition and get rid of Windows. So right away it says it's done, okay. So now I check the Finder and it says I have 70 GB used, but I remember before it was 60 GB, so I wonder where that space went. And then I check iStat Pro and it says like I have 60 GB used and that the entire hard drive (including free space) is only 230 GB. Weird discrepancy, because Disk Utility shows it as 250 GB again...
So I restart the computer, thinking maybe it just needs to get its bearings. But it comes up with a black screen that says "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key," and I'm thinking WHAT? So I power it off, boot by holding Option, and it only shows Macintosh HD.
So that's my situation, Windows still seems to be on there somewhere, but Mac doesn't know it, and I don't know what to do. Right now I'm erasing free space (don't know if that will help), but if there's a solution to this PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
I made a Time Machine backup before starting this whole process (thank God) so if I'm supposed to restore that in a particular way to get my hard drive back to normal or expect some things to not be restored or something please inform me.

I "skipped" the erase free space after reading your message, but it was already partly done. When I tried turning off the Mac after doing that, it seemed to freeze before completely shutting off so I forced shut down...
(I also opened the startup disk in System Preferences and clicked on Macintosh HD, I don't know if that made any difference.)
I zapped PRAM and now it booted like normal into OS X
So I looked into it, and actually the 70 GB seems to be in order (compared to the file sizes before backup, except for maybe a 400 MB Google Earth cache that seems to appear in my user library but not in the backup...) I guess iStat Pro and Disk Inventory X must just be reading in base-2, could that be it?
Do you still recommend booting from the SL DVD to repair the drive? Does everything sound like it's perfectly back to normal, so I can feel safe about making more backups and restoring to it should something horrible happen without finding out that there's something weird and messed up with the booting or something?

Mac Pro Boot Camp Windows XP issues

Hello all, I'm a new user on the forums and a proud owner of a Mac pro with 4gb ram and 500 gb hard drive. I installed Boot Camp and Windows XP Home Edition before adding any programs so the partitioning was split down the middle. However, once I installed my Windows Version of Adobe Production Studio and other software like McAfee and Spybot S&D I noticed a few issues with Windows. I might be overreacting, but the computer(on the windows side) seems slower than my previous computer (Powerspec 3ghz processor, 1gb RAM, Windows XP Prof) especially in adobe photoshop. Some problems that have occurred:
1.) System information only shows 1.99gb RAM on the windows side.
2.) Booting Windows from Boot Camp sometimes causes the entire system to restart and bring me back to boot camp if I'm still holding option, then a message saying that windows did not start normally appears and it asks if I want to start in safe mode.
3.) Adobe Photoshop with 75% Memory Partition lags when opening and saving large files like filmstrips.
4.) Windows start up and shut down take about 1-2 minutes while Mac OS X is almost instantaneous.
I haven't tried office yet, but the installation seemed to work. I'm not sure if anyone has experienced this, but this could be a cause for my problems, when I tried to install some programs, Spybot denied registry changes. I think I may have solved the problem, but I don't think it made a difference to programs that were already installed. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

By *firmware update* would that include EFI?
Maybe patch or update the SATA chip controller?
Run off PCIe SATA controller is always possibility...
Bugs in ROMs were often patched by drivers, microcode and kernel extensions.
SATA has been changing more rapidly in the last year than in the previous two years - trying to hit a fast moving target.
Barefeats points to possible issues with disk read and writes with some drives and drive configurations.
Seagate had an issue with some of their drives taking more than a minute to spin back up after sleep or spin-down, which required firmware update or drive replacement.
It is also possible, running BootCamp and Windows now, to apply firmware updates to disk drives, something that Macs were excluded from before by Windows-only updates. The need for firmware updates has always been done with SCSI disk drives, and SATA drives have required updates to correct problems as well.
Not sure if we will ever see the type of EFI access that PCs have had to the BIOS, but sometimes you might be able to write something to nvram (as with Parallels right now) to get past a problem.
Tiger has seen some changes, in 10.4.0 and again in 10.4.4, that has impacted disk arbitration and RAIDs primarily but not exclusively, such that you should not be using a 10.4.0-.4.2 version of Disk Utility to repair a drive running a later version.

Boot camp often fails to boot - fix?

Boot Camp often fails to boot at all, leaving the iMac dead at the bootloader screen. Have to force shutdown by holding down power button. Full hardware test declared the hardware 100% functional. Disk Utility and chkdsk sees nothing but fire. This is intermitent/random and it proved impossible to "force" it's occurance. It happen when it darn well please?
First occurance goes back to late July 2011, a few days after a major thunder storm that caused pulsing power blackouts (as in, very short bursts - like turning off the power then immediately flipping it back on - too quick to actually shut the computer down). Surely, this must be the source of the issue? Right? Alas it doesn't adds up. Power supply of this house is very stable and reliable. Power fluctuations are unhearded of. It's also connected to a surge protected outlet. The system itself, in Mac or Win, is flat out stable. It does not freeze out of the blue like what a damaged power supply would cause. It only ever freeze upon choosing a partition via the boot camp interface.
Further observation as compared to normal boot procedure: Upon selection of the Windows partition, the LED on the USB mouse turns off then back on again a short moment later. Windows loads up normally. When the crash occurs, the LED never turn back on. It's just dead right there and then.
What's going on and what can I do to fix this? It feels like some hardware initialisation fails for some reasons. It's ough to be around the USB systems itself but what do I know anyway?
P.S.: Please, don't mention the dreaded format and re-install. It's a 20 hours job. I'm not going there. ty

Why not upgrade the surge protector to a UPS? good units are very affordable.
Put all your sensitive equipment like modem/router, computer, electronics running off UPS.

Well, sometimes if you don't have backups, and refuse to do what you may need to....
There are troubleshoolting tips and faqs I'm sure on the 'net.
Starting with Windows 7 DVD for one
Even OS X won't survive with forced (hard) shutdowns.
If it only happens in Windows, and you were running OS X when the outage occurred...
USB devices and cables can be hard to ID but swapping cables and stuff helps.
As for Disk Utility, it does not look at drive sectors or files for issues.
If you really want to scan a hard drive, use the vendor's own Linux or Windows utiilty to recertify the sectors.
If you haven't done any deep cleaning of files, registry, even uninstall and reinstall components.
I just did a reinstall. Partially to be a test run for when I have to install Windows 8 next week, also to clear up a problem I had, possibly a rogue web site using a rootkit to hide files and icons and programs disappeared and icons became generic. So yes I don't take it lightly, but the new install runs much much better (over two years since last install).
AHT is not a 100% reliable at finding everything, only what it actually is designed or suppose to look for.
A semi-loose DIMM or faulty can be enough, and not likely AHT or Memtest will find it, but Windows does tend to spot a problem with RAM during installs.
CCleaner 3.x

START: run %TEMP% - Select All and send to Recycle
Lion Recovery - show all hidden partitions and check health of all, hidden debug menu in Disk Utility can be enabled in command line
Some partitions (GPT, EFI, System, Volume Information Block) are only tested during format where each sector does get a thorough check for errors because they can't be mapped out later. When you do chkdsk etc you only test user partition areas and not the 'entire' drive, unless doing a full initialization. And GPT requires that the VIB and also the backup VIB both be error free - in the past the backup VIB if it failed was "optional" though, it is not now.
If you clone OS X then it is easy to move it to another drive and also to do full initialization and restore. If 3 days of your time isn't an option maybe time to invest in program(s) and methods that can backup and restore.
Trying to find the needle in haystack that you have limped along with I guess since July (since installing Lion? maybe ?) can take 3 days probably, unless you are lucky enough to replace a mouse or cable on first step and it all goes away (hit the lottery or get hit by lightning odds)

Did Build 10061 revert back to 8.0's non-obvious approach to restart / shut-down?

After installing Build 10061, it took some hunting to figure out how to Restart and to Shut-Down.
IIRC, part of the awful 8.0 was that it was difficult to figure out how to Restart / Shut-Down, along with a host of other usability issues.
Well, I want to get back to my Win-7 partition on my desktop, after wresting with Build 10061's Spartan browser.
And it took me 5+ minutes to figure out how to accomplish that. I know I can be slow and a "dim bulb", but am I the only one unhappy at this change? Am I missing something obvious on how to get out of Build 10061.
IIRC, Win 8.1 got to be relatively easy to Restart, and Builds from the 9000's to the previous 10049 were easy to Restart.
And now, my experience is that I was back to needing to do Ctrl-Alt-Delete and then notice the widget at the lower right ... which has the fly-over hint of Shut-Down when I really want to Restart.

Thanks, especially for the screen shot.
I infer by "Windows Logo", you mean what I think of as the "Start Button".
I'm not on the Build 10061 partition right now, so I can't check if that works for me. It seems I tried RMB on the "Start Button / Windows Logo", and that didn't offer the option of Restart.
Also, from a Usability perspective, having that choice of words is flawed. The Menu showing up from the RMB click mentions two possibilities (Shut down or sign out), but then there are actually 4 possibilities on the "fly-out menu (also Restart and
Sleep).
My speculation is that I may have noticed the option of "Shut down or sign out" and was still scratching my head about "so, how do I Restart".
I'll check the next time I boot to the Build 10061 partition.
I think the other Reply post may show another way to Restart, but that screenshot (thanks!) looks different.

Windows 7 in Bootcamp shuts down when flash drive is removed.

Removing usb flash drive shuts down Windows 7.
Today, on my MacPro , I was wanting to transfer some data files from Boot Camp on Windows 7 so i formatted the usb flash drive for Windows and copied the files onto the drive.
I then clicked on Computer and found the flash drive and right clicked to bring up the menu and then clicked on Eject.
I didn't see the flash drive light up like it usually does on the Mac side but after waiting for 30 secs. or so I pulled out the drive.
As soon as I pulled it out Windows 7 began to shut down.
I tried it one more time to see if it would repeat itself and it did the same thing again.
I don't have a clue why it should be doing this so I would appreciate any suggestions you might have that will explain it.
Thanks

I Just figured it out! I Have a Mac Mini 2012 with 2 Kingston 128 GB SSDs. I thought it was having 2 internal drives that was making problems... Had exact same issue as all of you. First I would get a no NTFS partition error after I used Boot Camp Assistant to make a USB install stick for Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
My solution was simple, removing EVERYTHING connected to my mac mini, including my Wireless mouse and Keyboard. All I had connected was my Apple wired keyboard, the install USB drive, and my monitor. Having a Second internal SSD drive was not the issue.
I formatted the BootCamp partition, and POW! it actually worked. The error that setup couldnt install on this drive, and see error log didnt show up! Try that! it might work!

Please help with my Boot Camp/Windows problems

I need to install windows on to my iMac to continue a course I’m taking at uni. Sadly it’s been a nightmare so far.
I backed up all of my data and opened Boot Camp Assistant and tired to partition a section of my hard drive for windows. However it gave me an error each time I tired. After asking around I was told to buy idefrag and that should fix the problem - it didn’t. I was then told to format the hard disk and reinstall OSX. I did that and Boot Camp was now happy to partition my hard drive.
I insert a copy of legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional (x64) and clicked the Install Windows button when Boot Camp prompted me to.
Windows installation menus open after a quick restart but quickly tells me it cant see any partitions/drives to install on.
I googled the problem read that the partition should be formatted to NTFS for windows seven to install and that OSX wont do that. I installed a free program called NTFS-3G and that formatted the partition to NTFS.
Windows now saw the drive and went through the installation process. After it has gone through its automated routine it restarts the Mac and takes me to a "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD..."
I press Enter and it takes me back to the very first installation menu and restarts the whole thing until it has once again gone through its automated routine and restarted the Mac and told me to press any key.
This happened ever time. During the install I am presented with the options of "Installing Windows" or "repairing windows". When I tried the automatic repair it told me it could find no fault.
So I started again by deleting the partition from within OSX and making a new one and installing windows and restarting but this time remove the windows 7 disk.
All this did was boot the Mac up in OSX. I then restarted the Mac and held down the options key. This presented me with the choice of booting from the Mac HDD or the windows partition. I chose the windows partition and it takes me to a black screen with a flashing line/prompt and does nothing else.
I assumed Windows 7 might not like my Mac for some strange reason so brought a copy of Vista business with SP2 (x86).
I deleting the partition from within OSX and made a new one. I began installing Vista. It told me it could only install on NTFS formatted partitions/drives.
Once again I used NTFS-3G to formatted the partition to NTFS and relaunced vista.
It installed fine and restarted itself. Once again it took me back to the first installation screen just as windows 7 did. I tried restarting without the disk (hold options again) and it took me back to the black screen with the flashing line and sat there forever.
I restarted the Mac with the OSX 10.6.1 install disk in the drive and it booted up ignoring the disk. I launched the disk from desk top and looked through the install options hoping to find some drivers or extra installs for boot camp/windows. I couldn’t see anything.
I don’t know what else to try.
I have a 21.5' iMac:

Re-read in the PDF guide in Boot Camp Assist where it tells you to format the "BOOTCAMP" FAT volume when in Windows.
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp
But I have really only one question:
Was this an electronic school download edition? they offer students Windows 7 Pro. If this was an electronic version from school, fine, but it has to be burned at *reduced 2x speed* or it won't work, and can have various (and different for everyone) problems, BUT: it is pretty well known and semi "documented."
You do NOT need NTFS driver. That is totally wrong.
Sorry you bought Vista, I used it but once Windows 7 went Beta and then RC I've used 7 and never looked back (what Vista should/could have been but was not, even with SP2).

.Mac Auto Syncing of iDisk hindering Restarts/Shut Downs on new Intel iMac?

I have been experiencing a Restart/Shut Down reliability issue with my new iMac and Leopard 10.5.1. This evening an Apple rep I know pointed me to a work-around in Apple Discussions:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5957261&#5957261
This thread notes the discovery by one user that iDisk automatic syncing is not working reliably, and is preventing consistent restarting/shutting down of your Mac. Although, syncing has been working reliably for me both for .Mac stuff, and the iDisk itself, if you do a Get Info on your iDisk it reports, at least for me, that its capacity is 1TB, with 466GB available. I have only the standard 10GB .Mac account, and only 5GB of that is allocated to my iDisk, so something is clearly amiss with the .Mac iDisk setup (iDisk Get Info reports correctly on my G5 Macs w/Leopard), as being reported from the .Mac server. If you check your Console logs, you may also see this recurring error message, which is reporting a syncing error, although my syncs have, as I've said, been working correctly:
11/25/07 9:11 PM FileSyncAgent192 MKCOL /.FileSync (FAILED), httpStatusCode:405, errorType:100, transactionState:5, txnId:3846B904-9ABB-40E5-9928-B9233FAC05D2, auto-retries=0, manual-retries=0
To summarize, if you turn off your iDisk in your System Preferences/.Mac/iDisk preference pane, you'll have no problems restarting/shutting down. You may also need to do the power management reset (turn off Mac, unplug all devices and power for 15 seconds, reconnect, and start up) and the parameter RAM reset (reboot while holding down the cmd-opt-P-R keys). You can do this in one restart cycle, if you like. After that, restarts/shutting down has worked perfectly for me.
Of course, I actually USE my iDisk, and will be leaving it on. But, at least I know now how to work around the restart/shut down issue. (Note: this morning my iMac had locked up, after the iDisk mounted/unmounted repeatedly during the evening, so I rebooted and switched iDisk syncing to manual. More to follow...)
I hope Apple adds this fix to their 10.5.2 update next month.
Note: This is such an important issue, that in addition to adding it to a reply in another Shut Down thread, I thought I'd post it as a separate topic here.

MacOS X updates have resolved this issue.

I am currently using Windows 8 and also have Microsoft office installed but those are the only thing on my partitioned space. I don't know if I installed 32 or 64 version of Windows 8. Could that be the problem?

Can you deal with XP not being supported by Apple and Microsoft? no security etc?
Can you use Windows in a VM instead of natively?
All the drives other than the one with XP will need to be pulled.
Always have backups of your system, clone that you can boot from.
Boot Camp 3.0 was the last supported. You don't need OEM 10.4.6 DVD and your system with EFI and SMC updates (Aug/Sept 2007) may not like it.
32-bit version of Windows on EFI-32 will only get 1.9GB RAM.
Installing 64-bit Windows 7 is a bit harder. Vista pre-SP1 64-bit was the best match for install on my 1,1 and that was 2006-2007.
The new owner needs to deal with this, not you. And really they are better off with a $400 PC instead. Or use a VM.
the owner should put in a new SSD for the system and $44 buys 4 x 2GB RAM. Together it will run just fine. 500GB SSD now $250 / $135 250GB. Biggest issue is a video card on these.
The grey screen - you upgraded the graphic card perhaps.
Unplug everything. Hit power for 5-10 seconds. Reconnect cables for mouse/kb and power, and monitor. You just reset SMC. Yes there is a small button - pull drive #4 and any controller in top slot #4 to see the SMC motherboard reset button but you don't need to.
Any PCIe cards can also play a role and factor into XP or Windows not working.

Boot Camped Windows 8.1 looks low quality?

Hello,
I just recently Boot Camped my Late 2013 Macbook Pro 15 inch so I could play Windows-based games. Everything runs fine, but the only thing that bugs me is the quality of the games, or basically any window. The resolution is fine, everything is proportioned correctly. The taskbar and the blue "frame" that surround the windows are in a crisp, HD quality. But the content inside the windows is soft, and moderately pixelated. For example, when I go the the Google homepage, on Mac, the Google logo is very crisp and looks HD. When I go to the Google homepage on my Boot Camped Windows, the logo is pixelated. Same thing goes for games. Is there any way that I can fix this? To make the games and windows look "better" in a higher quality? Thank you in advance.

Windows 10 will not shut down completely? Power light stays on(official july 29th upgrade)

I just upgraded to windows 10 from windows eight and I'm facing shutdown problems because when I asked the PC to shut down; the screen goes off but the power light stays on and basically windows 10 does not shut down completely whenever I have to turn on my PC again, I have to force the power button down until it completely Shuts down and start it back up again.
I tried several troubleshooting tactics wants & browsed YouTube videos and but nothing seems work and I've seen people on this forum complain about same thing and am hoping HP fixes the problem.

YES!!!!! A Solution that worked. Spread the news. It has to do with the Intel Virtualization Tehnology. Didn't know what that was until this issue came up in Windows 10. First, find out if this is your issue. 1. I installed the 'Intel Processor Identification Utility' directly from Intel.2. After installation, open the program and go to the 'CPU Technologies' tab.3. If it says 'YES' for Intel Virtualization Tehnology, proceed. Solution...(at least on my system) 1. The next thing you have to do is go into the BIOS. If you have not done this before, proceed at your own risk. You need to restart the computer and enter the BIOS (for me I hit F10 at the HP screen)2. Within the BIOS, there is an 'Advanced Options' section3. In this section there is a line for 'Intel Virtualization Tehnology' and it will say enabled or disabled. My computer said disabled.4. If this is the case, change the option to 'ENABLED'; then SAVE and EXIT from the BIOS. The Computer will restart and from that point on Shut Down, Sleep, etc. has worked. WOW this was a frustrating issue. Almost went back to Windos 8. I take no credit for this solution, I pieced it together from other posts on this issue. Hope this helps.

how come when i sync my iphone5 to laptop window 7 it will shut down , but when m using ipad it will not shut down, so it means th problem is my iphone5

Hello vina8sy,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone will turn off after a sync but the iPad will not. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario
