Can I have access to partition of the other operating system?

Hi everyone,
I have Windows 8.1 installed through the Bootcamp. I gave a limited 56 GB space to the Windows partition and now I want to have access to some files that I have in MacOS drive. Is it possible to have access to those files? I am looking for a way to be able use the files in both partitions no matter which operating system is up in the computer.
Thanks in advance.

Of course. Moreover, Apple includes a driver inside the Boot Camp drivers you have to install in Windows that allows you to read your OS X volume in Windows. If you have not installed those drivers, look for your computer's model and your Windows version in this website to download the proper drivers -> Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Support
After downloading the drivers (I suppose you are doing it in Windows), just open the downloaded file and run the installer.
However, note that the driver is read-only, so you will not be able to write in the OS X volume. Instead, I would recommend you to copy the files you need to modify from the OS X volume to the Windows one, so then you can move them to the OS X volume once you have booted up in OS X.

    I live in China, have Dutch nationality, and no US address or Credit Card; how can I have access to products from the US iTunes store, in particular music, when such items are not available from the China iTunes store? In general, what are the differences between countries' iTunes offerings? Does one really need an address and a credit card for any country to be able to access that countries iTunes store? Why these restrictions?

    You cannot.
    You cannot use another countrys itunes store.
    You must be physically locates inside the borders of a country to use that countrys itunes store and a credit card issued in that country with a valid billing address in that country.
    The owners of the distribution rights of movies/music/etc differ by country.  These distributors decide who can sell their content in that country.
    Buy from another source if your countrys itunes store does not carry somehting that you want.

    Yes, a message pops up on the computer that says..."The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred. (3014)" I tried to research this and tried all of the things Apple suggested but still am not having any luck with it. Thanks for any assistance you may provide!

  • Is it okay to upgrade from os x 10.6.8 to yosemity without first getting the other operating systems?

    is it okay to upgrade from os x 10.6.8 to yosemity without first getting the other operating systems?

    Hey there jpenilla,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Yes. The webpage below provides the answer to your question, about upgrading to Yosemite from OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6.8), and it provides additional information that you may find helpful.
    Apple - OS X Yosemite - How to Upgrade
    You can upgrade to OS X Yosemite from the following:
    OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6.8)
    OS X Lion (v10.7)
    OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8)
    OS X Mavericks (v10.9)
    So long,

  • Can I upgrade my Macbook Pro to the newest operating systems?

    My Macbook Pro is currently running Mac OSX 10.6.8 and never had snow leopard installed. I was wondering if my system would even be able to run the newest operating system.
    Second I was wondering if it is even worth upgrading to. I have had a lot of trouble with my system freezing up and didnt know if a software update could help this problem out.

    10.6.8 is Snow Leopard.
    Depending what model your MBP is, it might not be a wise choice to bloat it with 10.7 or 10.8, especally since it won't run any PPC based software or hardware drivers your using.
    Apple Menu > About this Mac > more information should show a model number like "MacBook Pro 4,1"
    then download and install MacTracker, punch that in to find your machine and the latest OS X version you can run.
    If your machine originally came with 10.5, I serious suggest you stick with 10.6.8
    Second I was wondering if it is even worth upgrading to. I have had a lot of trouble wit my system freezing up and didnt know if a software update could help this problem out.
    Upgrading to a newer OS X version won't likely cure your problems, just create more.

  • Why can't I access any files on the other computers

    I am currently having trouble retrieving files from other local computers within my area that have Airport cards installed on them (as well as this computer I am currently using, which has the base). While it shows that I have a good connection between the computers on the network, I am unable to access any files from said computers externally, only the local servers show up. Is there any way to remedy this?

    Problems with buttons and links at the top of the page not working can be caused by an extension like the Yahoo! Toolbar or a Babylon extension that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • HT201260 I have version '10.5.8'. What operating system is that and what do I have to do to get the latest operating system?

    How do I backup my MacBook Pro before installing a new operating system?

    You have to go to the Apple on-line store and order Snow Leopard, 10.6, install and on-line software update to 10.6.8.  Then if you meet the requirements in http://www.apple.com/osx/specs you can go to the Mac App Store and for $20 download Mountain Lion 10.8.3.  Snow Leopard is also $20.

    You are welcome to try, but this is typical for the industry (look at MicroSoft's policy, for example) - it is just a lawsuit waiting to happen, so eveyone avoids it.  If you think your idea is that good, develop it yourself, then see how much it is worth.

  • Trying to upgrade to 3.6.8, and it says I can't because I "don't have access to some of the items. What in the world does this mean, and what do I do?

    I'm on a new Mac Mini running 10.6.4, bought in January and loaded with what I assumed was the latest version of FireFox--what I have is 3.5.2. I know I upgraded at least once since January
    When I try to download 3.6.8, it says that I "don't have access to some of the items."
    I don't think I've downloaded any plug-ins or anything that should trigger this. I have done a bunch of the standard upgrades that Microsoft incessantly sends out to fix problems in the Office suite. Haven't added any new applications. Can't figure out the problem. HELP!

    Hello.
    Try this:
    - uninstall your current version of Firefox (no data will be lost)
    - delete it's Firefox install folder (not your profile folder)
    - install the new version
    That should circumvent this problem. If you can't delete your Firefox install folder, after having uninstalled it, maybe it's because some of the files are locked. Try rebooting the system. If that doesn't help, ask Apple for support.
