Bootcamp: How to transfer more memory to the windows side? i'm running low

Wondering if you anyone knows how to transfer more memory to the windows side (partition) without having to uninstall bootcamp and start over...... I am running low on memory on the windows side but don't have either of the software disks to start over.

Too many people don't allocate enough storage space (memory = RAM) and make the partition too small.
Only things you can do is backup both OS X and Windows, remove the BootCamp Partition, reformat the full drive, and restore.
WinClone will help you with Windows. http://www.twocanoes.com
SuperDuper or TimeMachine or Disk Utility Restore with OS X.

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    You can delete the partition in Boot Camp Assistant or use Camptune to modify it

    I need more space on the windows side of my computer. Can I adjust my bootcamp settings or do I have to start over and reinstall everything to adjust the memory allocation?

  • I have a macbook pro running 10.5.8 The drive is partitioned to run windows 7 I need to decrease the size of the Mac side and increase the size of the windows side? I cn't remember how to access the drive to reallocate the resources

    Hello,
    I would like to know how to change the partitioned drive on my mac to give more resources to the windows side of the machine?
    i have one other little problem, If I am running the windows side of the machine the mac book's internat speakers produce no sound, but if the content is streamed to my TV the audio id there and working right.When you look in the jack on the side of the computeryou see a red light shinig through itand the speaker icon tells me that the speaker output is at 100% even though there is no sound coming out of the internal speakers.
    Thank you all in advance for sny help
    JTN

    To change the partitions on your MBP, go to DISK UTILITY>PARTITION and follow the instructions.
    Regarding your sound issue, the red light in the audio output port indicates that the switch is set to provide audio to earphones and the internal speakers are disconnected.  To alleviate the problem try a repeated insertion of the earphone jack.  If that does not get the internal speakers functioning, the get a cocktail stirrer or tooth pick and jiggle it inside.  If still no success, the Apple store.

  • How to back up the Windows side of your Apple computer

    Hello friends,
    As I get more involved in the Windows side of my Apple computer (Macbook Pro Snow Leopartd with boot camp) I am wondering what is the proper way to back up the files I have on the Windows side to an external hard drive? I can obviously easily copy my documents, pictures and videos, but what about the contents of my copy of Microsoft Outlook (all my emails and all my contacts), the copy of iTunes I have on the Windows side and the list of "favorites" that I have in my Internet Explorer (again all of these programs are on the Windows side).
    Is there a way to back them up so that if my Apple computer dies, and I get a new Apple again with boot camp and Windows, I can reinstall them on to the new computer and have them functioning just like before (the way one can with programs on the Macintosh side)?
    Your help would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Good morning folks, Twonails, ScuseMe and Hatter—
    Several questions:
    Good to hear about your experiences with  Winclone,  Paragon’s HDM 2011 Suite and Acronis True Image 2011.  Would you mind telling me what it is about these programs that have made them so useful to you?  I have looked at their websites online but would love to hear it described in plain words. For example, how do these programs differ from Windows 7’s built-in Backup and Restore and Create a System Image? Do they work better with Windows mounted on Boot Camp?
    ScuseMe, when one encounters a problem like you did with the audio drivers,  couldn’t you have used system restore to roll the clock back to the point before you installed the drivers? Does system restore not always fix these kind of problems?
    Finally, TwoNails, can you tell me what exactly you mean by “yes several drivers had to be updated but it still booted and functioned well”? By drivers do you mean the drivers that control printers and if so, how does one know whether they need updating after you do a reinstall?
    Thank you all. Your patience is appreciated.

  • How do I add more Memory to the 2 open slots in my iMac - it is 4GB now

    How do I add more Memory to the 2 open slots in my iMac ???  It is 4GB now and I get the spinning beach ball often when several Apps are running.
    Does the Apple Store sell and install???
    Please advise if you have upgraded your iMac memory

    Go to a website such as OWC or Crucial's, determine which type of RAM your computer needs, and buy it from that site. They provide installation instructions on the site.

  • Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.

    Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.?

    I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
    What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
    Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
    Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

  • Exchange 2013 - The Microsoft Exchange Transport service is rejecting message submissions because the service continues to consume more memory than the configured threshold

    Noticed at about noon that no emails had been received all day. Began to investigate and found that the MS Exchange Transport service had been set to deny email submission because it was using too much memory on the server (91%). 
    The error message makes me think that we may have been getting used by malware or something similar.“The Microsoft Exchange Transport service is rejecting message submissions because the service continues to consume more memory than the
    configured threshold.” 
    There are also several warning messages that list particular IP addresses and say that a connection from that IP was denied because there were already the maximum number of connections (20). 
    From what I can tell, all of the IP addresses are from Taiwan. 
    The time period for which some emails may be missing is from close of business yesterday ( 4/3/2014) through about 12:45 today (4/4/2014). 
    From the time I spent reading and trying to figure out the error, I think we may need to readjust our throttling policies to prevent this from happening. 
    The exchange server is currently running at 90%+ CPU and 50%+ memory usage the majority of the time, and I’m not sure how to fix it.
    Also, I cannot get into EMS I get a access denied message from the destination computer. (Exchange server) I want to get into there to change the throttling policy back to default, since we disabled it.
    The Error reads:
    The WinRM client cannot process the request. The WinRM client tried to use Kerberos authentication mechanism, but the destination computer <Exchange> returned an 'access denied' error. Change the configuration to allow Kerberos authentication
    mechanism to be used or specify one of the authentication mechanism supported by the server. (How do I do this?) To use Kerberos, specify the local computer name as the remote destination. (I'm trying to use EMS while logged into the local Exchange server)
    Also verify that the client computer and the destination computer are joined to a domain. (Exchange is on our domain, and the computer trying to connect is the same computer) To use basic, specify the local computer name as the remote destination, specify
    Basic authentication and provide user mane and password. Possible authentication mechanisms reported by server.
    At line:1 char:1

    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : OpenError: (System.Manageme....RemoteRunspace:RemoteRunspace) [New-PSSession], PSRemotingTransportException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : AccessDenied,PSSessionOpenFailed
    I assumed control of this exchange system already in place and I do not have much experience with exchange 2013 or server 2012. I do know 2008, but that doesn't help very much in this situation.
    Recent changes to the system:
    About three days ago we switch our sessions policy to allow many more connections, and I believe this caused the issue. This is what I changed it to:
    Made the registry DWORD (32-bit) "Maximum Allowed Sessions Per User" and modified the value to 1000. Location of registry change @ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem
    I just changed it to 10 from the 1000. I'm hoping this solves this. So far no.
    Also, I am not the best in the shell or command line interfaces. Any help would be wonderful!

    Hi,
    Yes, could be hardware performance issue. Try recycle the Transport process and see if the issue persists.

  • How to transfer more than one files over internet at once?

    hi, friends,
    I just wonder how to transfer more than one files from one computer to another over internet at once. Not using ftp. pls any one give me the solution.

    This isn't hard to do, but it depends on your exact need. I did something very similar to let me upload all my mp3 file from home to work using sockets (don't have the code anymore..).
    What I did was implement a "pull" approach rather than a "push" approach. In other words, everytime my server got a request from a client, it served up the next file. It didn't know or care that the client was always the same.
    If you can set up a server to serve one file when a client attaches, then basically just put that code in a loop.
    If this doesn't meet you need, it might still be helpful as a starting point...

  • How to transfer more than 1 file usong bluetooth t...

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer more than one file via Bluetooth. I am using Lumia 720.

    Hi,
    My theory is that Windows get confused when it is opening the program file and the following intsructions should create a unique copy. I have produced the instructions in detail because I am never sure how much people are use to - forgive me you know much of it.
    Open Windows or Folder Explorer
    Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12
    Look for PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
    Right click on the file and select Copy
    Right click on a blank space and select Paste - you should get a prompt asking if you want to continue - you do - this should produce a copy of the file
    Rename PhotoshopElementsEditor - Copy.exe to PSE 12 ED  - you should get a prompt asking if you want to continue - you do
    Close the Explorer
    In the Windows Control Panel, select Default Programs
    In Default Programs, Select Associate a file type … - it will take a while to display the list
    Scroll down to the type you want to select - say .jpg and select it
    Click on the Change program button
    Click on the Browse button
    Search for the PSE 12 ED file renamed in 6 above, select it and then click on the Open button
    Click on OK and close the Default Programs
    Now try your tests. I can get multiple files to open as well as retain Expert mode.
    Good luck

  • How do I install memory into the Pavilion 17z-F2 series laptops?

    How do I install memory into the Pavilion 17z-F (17z-F200, product L2H13AV) series laptops?
    HP appears to have no maintenance guide available for this model series. What's up with that?
    Please, do not offer the generic (and out-of-date) Pavilion 17 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. It does not appear to apply to the 17z-F series. This guide instructs to remove the bottom service panel which I could have figured that out on my own. However, the 17z-F series does not appear to have any removable panels at all. I took an up-close look at the Pavilion 17z-F100. And, it does not have any removable panels on the underside, except for the battery. So, I presume the 17z-F200 to be the same.
    I am a computer technician. And, this is the first laptop I have seen without any service panels. I am probably going to have to disassemble the entire outer-shell to install memory (or to replace the hard disk drive once the time comes). But, every laptop I have worked on in the past had its own special array of hidden screws or special tricks for disassembly. So, having a maintenance guide is a necessity to avoid damaging plastic mounts, clips, guides, etc.

    How about this one:
    Pavilion 17z Manual
    Don't get me started on this. It's one of my pet peeves, too. HP is not the only one doing this. Acer and Toshiba, etc. also are selling "closed" systems now. I hate it. I will absolutely never knowingly buy one but I am spending a lot of time here answering questions just like this. Good luck and let us know how you do. Sounds like you will be fine.

    HP appears to have no maintenance guide available for this model. What's up with that?
    I took a look at the Pavilion 17z-F100 (sent by mistake). It does not have any removable panels on the underside. And, the User Guide for the 17z-F200 indicates that it will be the same (assuming it ever arrives).

  • I use the "Bootcamp" on my Mac to work between Mac and Windows. How do I get my iTunes music from the Mac side of my hard drive to the Windows side?

    I use my "Bootcamp" harddrive to work on both the Mac side and Windows7 side of my computer. How do I get my Itunes Library from the Mac side to the Windows side of my Mac Book Pro?

    Time Capsule is for backing up your data. It's not really a solution for live file storage; using it will not reduce the bloat of your boot volume.
    If you have a lot of movies, music, etc. in your iTunes Library, that can be a good thing to move to an external drive. Here's how:

    After you follow those instructions to copy your media over to the external drive and point iTunes to it, you can delete it from your internal drive.
