Boot-support-partition nach bedarf für das Volume aktualisieren

Seit Sonntag erkennt mein MacBook Pro (13" Mid 2010/OSX 10.6.8) leider meine externe Festplatte (WD Elements 2TB) nicht mehr. Mir wurde geraten das Festplattendienstprogramm zu verwenden um die Platte zu reparieren. Nun steht seit 48 Stunden folgender Satz "boot-support-partition nach bedarf für das volume aktualisieren" da und die Leiste läuft immer noch. Das heißt das Programm hat sich nicht aufgehängt.
Was soll ich tun?
Ist es normal, dass es so lange läuft oder soll ich die Reparatur stoppen?
Danke für die Hilfe.
Here in English:
Since Sunday, my MacBook Pro (13 "mid 2010/OSX 10.6.8) unfortunately does not list my external hard drive (WD Elements 2TB) no longer. I was advised to use the Disk Utility to repair the disk. Now available for 48 hours following sentence" support boot partition needs to update the volume "and because the bar is still running. this means that the program has not hanged.
What should I do?
Is it normal for it as long runs or should I stop the repair?
Thanks for the help.

Moin moin,
ich habe ebenfalls eine Neuinstallation durchführen müssen, allerdings unter MacOSX (Yosemite). Das Problem ist hier aber identisch, die Fehlermeldungen haben zwar eine andere Optik ;-) aber inhaltlich sagen sie das Gleiche. Auf der Download-Seite von Adobe habe ich ein Update für Photoshop auf 11.02. und Fireworks auf 10.0.4.1 gefunden, mehr aber nicht. Acrobat Pro 9.X gibt's nicht und z. B. Dreamweaver funktioniert nicht!
Wenn ich was vom Adobe-Support höre, melde ich mich wieder.

Disk Utility stuck on "updating boot support partitions for the volume as required"

Tonight when I mounted my Time Machine drive (a WD My Passport drive), it failed to mount properly, and I received a warning from Drive Genius that it needed repair. But when I launched Drive Genius, the disk would not show up.
Through a series of mounts, unmounts, and sleeping the computer, I managed to get it to show up in Disk Utility, so I seleted "Time Machine Backups" under the main listing for the drive ("319.37GB WD My Passort..."), and clicked Repair.
The detail window showed "Volume repair complete" almost immediately. But for almost four hours now, it's been stuck on "Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required."
Meanwhile, Activity Monitor has been showing fsku_hfs taking 30%-85% of the CPU the whole time.
Anyone have advice?

Apparently not:
Error: Disk Utility can’t repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files.
But when I ran Disk Utility again this morning, not on the Time Machine Backup, but up the hierarcy on the level labeled "319.37GB WD My Passort...," I got...
The volume Time Machine Backups appears to be OK.
And now the drive seem to be OK.
I think I'll still offload everything and reformat it.

Update Boot Support Partitions, how do I do that??

I have just carried out a Disk Repair on MBP and "Repaired Successfully" message came up but it is asking to "Update Boot Support Partitions", can someone tell me how I do that please??

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Macbook not booting up so I resorted to Disk Utility...it has been stuck on "updating boot support partitions for the volume as required"

So my Macbook was not booting up so I resorted to using Disk Utility...it has been stuck on "updating boot support partitions for the volume as required" for over two days.
Has anyone else had to wait this long?
I have read that I should leave it until I get another message but I saw this reply on another site....
"Hi everybody, the message: “Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required.“ means: the Disk Utilities is telling you what it is doing: 'Disk Utilities': "(I'm) Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required (& I'm done with it)." So when you see this message, the DS (Disk Utilities) is done & you can close the application"...
Any advice/tips would be greatly appreciated!

Doesn't have to be another MacBook - any Mac with FireWire (400 or 800) will do. FW 400 to 800 adapters or adapter cables should be available from any computer store.
Instructions for FWTDM -
Disconnect all other FireWire devices from both computers before you use FireWire target disk mode. Do not connect any FireWire devices until after you have disconnected the two computers from each other or have stopped using target disk mode.
To use FireWire target disk mode
    1.    Make sure that the target computer is turned off.
    2.    If you are using an Apple portable computer such as a PowerBook or MacBook as the target computer, plug in its AC power adapter.
    3.    Use a FireWire cable to connect the target computer to a host computer. The host computer can be powered on.
    4.    Start up the target computer and immediately press and hold down the T key until the FireWire icon appears. The hard disk of the target computer should become available to the host computer and will likely appear on desktop. (If the target computer is running Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger, you can also open System Preferences, choose Startup Disk, and click Target Disk Mode. Restart the computer and it will start up in Target Disk Mode.)
    5.    When you are finished copying files, locate the target computer's hard disk icon on the desktop of the host computer and drag it to the Trash or choose Eject (or Put Away) from the File menu.
    6.    Press the target computer's power button to turn it off.
    7.    Unplug the FireWire cable.

I am having problems with my HD. It says updating boot support partition as required. What should I do with that?

My computer is not working. I tried rebooting it but when it came back there is already an error with the HD. Please help

Boot up from your disc that came with your computer and run the hardware test - Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test

Hi, Had boot issue and got the following from DU repair function on Macintosh hd: updating boot support.....Error: Disk utility can't repair this disk.....reformat and restore backed up files. How is that done or do I go to Genius?

In reference to question the computer gave no warning but lost internet connectivity. I shut down for a while and when returned it would only boot to gray logo screen with spinning gear. Ran disk utility and on Mac HD drive it stopped after "Updating boot support partitions as required". Then in red: Error: Disk utility can' repair this disk ....disk, and restore backed up files. I'm running OS X 10.8 and had just updated the iOS about three days ago. Not familiar with reformat process on MacBook Pro and would like some ideas whether I should go to the Genius Bar here in Sydney or try it on my own. I have been using time machine to back up to a 1TB La Cie drive right up to the crash. Thanks for any advice.

Well it turned out the drive was shot. Took it to the genius bar yesterday and they ran a test on the drive before trying the restore routine again. Drive failed.
Replaced the drive and got the MBP back today. Pretty quick and decent service once you get an appointment.
Now having trouble figuring how to do the Time Machine saved files. Have several applications which I'd like to keep but not sure how to trans the apps from my backup to the new. Hunting for answers on that on the web.
Thanks for you help, Eustace.

Boot camp partition problems. What to do?

Hello guys !
I really need some help ! Im a totally amateur with mac and still pretty new to it and anyways and im pretty noob with these things, so dont go harsh on me.
So I have bootcamp, windows 7 installed in my macbook pro retina 15' and everything was good, untill I tried to resize the partition of the boot camp!!! I had only 4gb available on the windows so I wanted more space. I went to the disk utility and created some space for the windows by shrinking the mac's hard a bit and then switched to windows and tried to do it by a program called '' AOMEI Dynamic Disk Manager'' and the machine restarted and everything seem to go well untill almost at the end of the installation the problem occured some kind of an error I dont remember anymore and then I restarted my computer and pressed the alt button and I had still there the windows option the available, but when I enter it nothing happens and then occurs text '' system operating file missing '' ??? So what can I do? Have I lost all of my files that were on windows 7? is there anyway to get them back and if so how? Please guys I really need help, I have very important files that I need ASAP !!! I might lose my job, if I will lose them, so please help me ! I havent done any back up to the windows? Is there anything I could do anymore to get the partition and the files back? I tried to repair the partition from disk utility, but this what happened :
Verify and Repair volume “disk0s4”Checking file system** /dev/disk0s4
Invalid BS_jmpBoot in boot block: 46fa80
Volume repair complete.Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required.Error: Disk Utility can’t repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files.
Please guys help me out ! what can I do? I tried to google something but really couldnt find anything,
Thnx for u in advance!

You have to install the drivers yourself with either a 10.6 install dvd or from a download choice when starting the Boot Camp installation.
After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc.
The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort, built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and the function keys on an Apple keyboard.
The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and the Apple Boot Camp system tray item.
OR
If you can’t find the CD, DVD, or external disk with the support software you downloaded, open Boot Camp Assistant and download the software again.
You can quit the assistant after you save the software without creating a new partition.
Insert the CD or DVD or connect the external disk with the Windows support software.
The installer may start automatically. If it doesn’t, do one of the following:
If the support software is on the same USB flash drive as the Windows 7 installer, double-click the setup.exe file in the WindowsSupport directory.

Error: The Boot Camp partition "/dev/disk0s3" used by Hard Disk 1 is not supported.

I installed Lion a couple of weeks ago, and had Parallels 5 installed, but it would no longer run. Unfortunately, I spent the money to upgrade to Parallels 6 prior to seeing the advice to get Lion to run with 5. Oh well. But now, it won't run with 6 either. What to do?
Here;s the error again:
The Boot Camp partition "/dev/disk0s3" used by Hard Disk 1 is not supported.

You should be able to do this using the Boot Camp Assistant app. There is an option to "Restore the startup disk to a single volume". That should eliminate the Boot Camp partition without harming your Mac OS partition. Even so, make sure you back up your Mac OS X partition data before you do this, just to be safe.

How do I make a clone of the Boot camp partition?

My MacBook Air (10.6.8) is having problems and I need to send it away for repairs. Before I do that I want to make a clone of everything and put it on my new MacBook Pro (10.7.2)
I am making a clone of the Mac partition using Carbon Copy Cloner. That has worked well as a backup for me.
The only problem is I need to make a clone of the Boot camp partition (Windows partition) and I don't know how.
I want to make an exact clone so it has all the operating system, files and everything.
The other question is when should I make a Bootcamp partition?
Should I migrate the clone to the new mac using Migration Assistant, and then make a boot camp partition? And then what are the exact steps putting the clone onto the boot camp partition?
Thanks for any help.

Here are some previous coments made on this forun regarding backup of a Boot Camp partition. I use Paragon HDMSuite 2011.
Casper 6 does seem to work;
WinClone was handy for XP users but doesn't for instance check for errors during the backup only during restore. Winclone was discontinued at 2.2, all 2.3 versions are hacks (removal of the OS check seems to be the main thing) There has been no deveoplment or support for a while now.
Acronis 2011 w/ plus pak, didn't work well previously
Ghost 15 - probably not
Casper 6 works for Windows on Boot Camp only
CopyCatX is more lengthy and sector copy so takes the longest.
Paragon Hard Drive Suite 2011 because it works great
and they have CampTune
Windows 7 system backup and restore - Apple's goofy HFS read-only interferes with system and file backup.
I have also used Casper, Clonezilla and Paragon but less regularly, Casper failed a few times, I stopped using it, Clonezilla worked but took forever (for me) Paragon (which I have only used twice) was the best but my sample is limited.
I have restored from DU, CCC, SuperDuper and TM, they all worked, TM was slower but not a lot, you can boot from the others, which I prefer.
HDM 2011 can do either offline or online backups, the difference is that with an offline backup, the entire partition (or disk) is unallocated. In an online backup, the backup utility is running against a partition that may be making changes to itself. When you run CCC or SD! in OS X, you're running an online backup. However, I would recommend (at least for the first backup) that you boot from the HDM recovery CD to do an offline backup. This will ensure that you have an *exact* copy of the parition/disk.
Since this is you first time backing up your partition, I would suggest using one of the Backup Wizards. They'll guide you through the backup process and keep you from doing something wrong Similarly, use the Restore Wizard to restore your partition/drive.
HDMS 2011- back up a dual-boot Mac to an external USB drive, do:
1) Boot from the Recovery Disk (I'm assuming that the backup hard drive is attached before you reboot)
2) Select Paragon Hard Disk Manager
3) Launch the Backup Wizard by selecting Wizards > Backup Wizard
4) Select the Mac hard disk (not the partition) where it asks "what to backup"
5) On the Backup Destination page, select "Save data to any local drive or a network share"
6) Hit the radio button for the "Save to local drive option" (unless you got a boatload of DVD's )
7) Select the external USB drive as the backup destination
8) Look over and correct the name and comments
9) Hit Next to start the backup
When it's done, you have an entire copy of your Mac's HD saved to external media.
If you need to recover your HD, just run the Recovery Wizard and reverse the process.

How do I write to my boot camp partition with Paragon NTFS that comes with Mountain Lion? Or how do I get my boot camp partition to show up in Paragon's "Available NTFS partitions:" panel like my external hard drive does?

I've just set up boot camp on my MacBookPro with a freshly installed Mountain Lion and Windows 7.
I would like to read and write in both directions from drive to drive if possible. I've hunted around quite a bit to try and work this out, and so far I understand that one can write to or transfer files from one drive to the other with Paragon NTFS among other softwares.
I noticed when I looked in my system preferences the utility "Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X" came with Mountain Lion and it will recognize an external hard drive when I have one plugged in under "Available NTFS partitions:". However, it does not automatically recognize my NTFS boot camp partition nor does it automatically give me write access.
Is the Paragon NTFS that comes with Mountain Lion limited in some way?
Do I still need to purchase and download the software of the same name from Paragon to get the full write privilidges I want or is there something I can do to get the version of Paragon on my MAC to recognize and give me write priviledges to my boot camp partition?
I'm open to all suggestions to get the read / write access between partitions in my boot camped drive.
MacFUSE is also listed in the System Preferences of my machine (it also came with Mountain Lion), if that helps. I'm still working out exactly what each of these is supposed to do and how I can use it to accomplish the task at hand.
My boot camp drive does appear normally in other contexts and in disk utility it indicates that the drive is mounted.
Thank you for any guidance you can give me.

Interesting. Comes with? you didn't have either before? Paragon is commercial and is now v. 10.0, they were the only one keeping updated and was supporting 10.7.4. I would not enable more than one.
For writing to HFS Paragon has theirs but probably give the nod to MacDrive there.
I never do an upgrade to a new OS over the old system, I backup (clone) and format the drive with the new OS and do the install so whatever is there I know is clean and also to keep from carrying around leftovers from years and systems past.
I would assme Paragon is limited. Try their site and knowledge base?

After Boot Camp partition, iMac no longer boots

Hi, I have a 20" iMac Core Duo (the first Intel Mac off the line) running Snow Leopard 10.6.4. I ran the Boot Camp Assistant to partition my hard drive, and it successfully created the "BOOTCAMP" drive. When it asked for my installation CD, I tried loading a Windows installation partition through a USB hard drive, but the assistant would not recognize it as an install disk. So, I closed out of the assistant early, leaving the Boot Camp partition in place. Eventually, I rebooted my machine in an attempt to boot directly from the USB drive and resume installation.
However, I found the machine will not boot at all. It powers on normally, makes the startup sound, but after a few seconds I'm left with just a flashing folder and question mark icon. Holding down Option-key at startup does nothing. Trying to boot from my Snow Leopard disc by holding down C or D during startup does nothing. Holding down Command-S does nothing. Holding down Shift-key does nothing. Resetting the PRAM does nothing.
What can I do? Is there some way I can access the on-board EFI to make sure the correct startup disk is selected? Why am I unable to boot from my CD drive?
Thanks for your help, everyone.

On OSX go to System Preferences the Startup Volume and reset your Windows 7 partition to be the default.
On the next reboot it should automatically boot into Windows.
A PRAM-reset http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1895 can be the cause of this behavior.

Can no longer see Boot Camp Partition

Hello all,
I was having problems with booting into Boot Camp/Windows 7 (I was just getting a black screen), so I attempted to delete the boot camp partition and reinstall it. When I did that, the program hung for a while, and finally said there was an error deleting the partition. However, it appears it like halfway deleted it, as it no longer shows up! When I go into disk utility, Macintosh HD shows blue, and then there is a 50 GB partition (the size of my bootcamp) that is white, but it is unlabeled. I cannot adjust the partition to make it the whole HD, and if I go to boot camp assistant, and try to make a new bootcamp partition, it bounces back with an error message as well. I am wondering how I can restore the partition back to the original all mac hd partition..ANy help would be greatly appreciated!!

WinClone 3 $20
When you move to a new OS: clone your system, make sure you have backups you can use - for each - the partition table "rules" change with each new OS. And you want to reformat a drive from time to time especially then.
Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4 is a good way to clone your OS X partitions.
Basically, "start over" and restore to one HFS volume with OS X then run Boot Camp Assistant, then restore with Winclone image you made easier.

Cloned boot camp partition won't boot

I've bought a new SSD, installed OSX and used Disk Utility to make 2 partitions. 1 for OSX and another fat32 partition for win XP.
I cloned my old windows xp boot camp partition with dd.
then I followed the instructions to add a new hybrid master boot record and marked the partition bootable (sudo fdisk -e /dev/disk0, flag 4).
But the Boot camp partition doesn't show up during boot while pressing ALT and vmware is not able to boot into windows.

How to adjust Boot Camp partition for more Mac space?

Hello,
TLDR Version:
When I setup Boot Camp, I intended to stay in Windows. I’ve now migrated to Mac and want more disc space allocated to it. How can I adjust this in Boot Camp without deleting and reinstalling Windows?
Extended Version:
I have had a 21.5” iMac for right at a year now, and have been running Windows 95% of the time prior to last week. I decided that I was spending more time on the Mac partition and deciding that it was better in my eyes than Windows, and decided to install all of my productivity software (Microsoft Office/Adobe Creative Suite) on it in an effort to wean myself off of Windows.
Unfortunately, when I set the computer up, I did a 90/10 partition install of Windows on Boot Camp, with 90% of the disc space being allocated to Windows. Obviously, this will no longer work for me, and working from my files in the Boot Camp partition is both limited, and irritating. I would like to adjust the partition the other way; probably an 85/15 partition with the 85% being Mac OSX and the remainder being Windows. Because Mac OSX is the boot disc, it appears as though it can be made smaller, but not larger in Boot Camp.
1. Is there a way to adjust the partition size without having to delete the Windows partition and reinstall?
2. Is the Airport Time Capsule a suitable device to temporarily dump my data on while I adjust the partition? I’ve got 99% of my data on a separate external HDD from a data backup a month ago, but would rather not have to make another backup.
I appreciate any information.
Best regards,
Ryan

You may want to look at Winclone or Camptune. There is Gparted/Live CD for the adventurous souls.

Time Machine cannot backup Windows. It will only back up OS - Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support.

How do I restore data to a new mac with windows boot camp partition?

Hi
I have a new iMac and an old MBP, I'd like to copy all of the data of my old MBP to the iMac.Would doing that affect the windows boot camp partition?
and how do I do it?
right now im backing everything up on my MBP using super duper
both the MBP and the iMac are running on Lion

I am assuming the Boot Camp partition is on the old MBP and that the SuperDuper clone is on an external drive and is bootable. The Super Duper clone does not include the Boot Camp Partition.
To get the Mac Data moved you can use Migration Assistant and if you want to transfer the Boot Camp partition you would need Winclone to move/copy it to a newly created Boot Camp partition on the iMac. The SD Clone ( and a Winclone backup) is your insurance policy if some kind of difficulty arises.
