  • Not able to use Mac after booting windows from bootcamp!

    Hi there:
    You may be able to start up the Mac in such a way as to look
    for an OS X volume at the same time using a keyboard comb-
    ination at startup... Press key(s) immediately after start tone.
    Press Option (opt) key during startup will start in Startup Manager
    where you can select an OS X volume or network volume to run.
    {There is also a way to choose a hardware test for diagnostic
    purposes on startup, too. Some macs have features in the OS
    to include a 'recovery' mode on later models.}

    PS: if you decide to remove Windows, you should also
    consider Boot Camp to remove the partition it made.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Why can't I start Mac after installing Windows using boot camp???

    I'm new to Mac.... Have installed Windows 7 through Bootcamp... Well, I tried to at least!!  I can now only get into Windows every time I start the mac up.... What have I done wrong - and how do I fix it!?!

    The restart in Mac OS X icon (a grey diamond) will only appear after you've installed the Boot Camp drivers. If you installed the drivers, try clicking on the sideways triangle to show any hidden system tray icons.  You can also use the boot camp control panel to restart in Mac OS X.
    For how many partitions you have, you should be able to see those in the Disk Utility application in Mac OS X or the Disk Management app in Windows.  Be careful not to delete any of them.  If you want to remove a partition, I'd use the Boot Camp Utility to do that.  Nore as well that OS X 10.7 and above add a hidden recovery partition to your drive that you won't see in Disk Utility but will see in the Windows app. 
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't Recover using RnR after installing Windows 7 SP1

    After I install Windows 7 SP1 on Lenovo T61 machine (64-bit), I can't recover using RnR 4.3 as it seems that RnR doesn't perform anything when I chick Restore on RnR while Windows is running or when I click ThinkVantage button while the computer is starting.
    Steps the issue is found
    1. Clean install Windows 7 Professional x64
    2. Install Lenovo drivers & softwares including RnR 4.3
    3. Install Windows 7 SP1
    4. Perform a backup using RnR
    5. Do something (e.g. installing a program) when perform a restoration using RnR
    What should I do to resolve this issue? Thanks very much.

    The firmware restore cd doesn't start, boot or anything visible on the screen, it just loads it behind the scenes, does the flashy or beepy thing.
    Reboot twice and see if the at boot key commands work again using the OS X install disk, option key or command r or command option r while booting. (you never mentioned what OS X version or machine your using)
    It's possible a recent firmware update occurred (software update or AppStore) and bricked your EFI, the version you get from the website download is older because they don't release it there until it's been tested in the field like on people like you.
    If a newer firmware is on the machine already and it's borked, the older one your using won't load, only newer versions are accepted by the hardware.
    If this is the case, your only choice is to have the logicboard replaced, I hope you have AppleCare.
    You also could have made a mistake and downloaded the wrong one, so it's refusing to apply it.
    Need machine/operating system identification help?
    Find the serial number, thus the model number and thus gives the operating system that originally came with the machine. However gives not what operating system version the boot drive was later upgraded to. Do not use older OS X verisons to repair newer verisons. It is possible to use the original operating system version installed on another boot drive to recover files from a later operating system non-booting drive.

  • I need help, I tried everything! Network controller after installing windows 7 on a windows 8.1 machine!

    Hello everyone! 
    I have a Dell Inspiron 3521. It had Windows 8.1 on it and I installed Windows 7 Pro OEM 64 bit. I did delete the old windows file. I was able to install all the drivers from the Dell website, but I can't seem to figure out how to get the right driver for the "Network Controller". I tried Driver Identifier and it shows me two drivers missing: 1: BCM43142A0, 2: Network Controller. 
    Here are the hardware IDs for the NC: 
    PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_00161028&REV_01
    PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_00161028
    PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&CC_028000
    PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&CC_0280
    I did find a post with someone having the same keys, but the driver in the link didn't help me. Maybe it's the way I installed the drivers? Or the way I installed windows 7 ?
    Please help!!!

    The latest Dell Driver for the Dell Wireless 1704 Card is 6.30.223.228. You may also try the later Dell Wireless 1708 card 6.30.223.245 (both are Broadcom rebundled drivers) first directly and then through the device manger.

  • Help Me Please...Using Mac Mini as Entertainment Center

    Ok, so I am needing help with this mini:
    Mac Mini
    Model Identifier: PowerMac 10.1
    Processor: PowerPC G4(1.2)
    Processor Speed : 1.42 ghz
    HardDrive: 80gb
    Memory: 512mb
    OK so...let me begin with some background....I know this is an older based mini, it was collecting dust in a closet, when I decided to put it to use. So I completely whiped the hard drive, installed leopard, and pulled all my media off my time capsule to the mini itself. I wrote a script that boots the mini up, as if it were an AppleTV..all is well...BUT....When the mini boots up, it boots up into front row, and in order to select the category/media I want..I need to either use a Bluetooth/wireless keyboard/mouse...or use screen sharing from my Macbook pro and control it that way...I would really like to be able to use a remote control. However the PowerPC based minis do not support the use of the apple remote...I have looked into other 3rd party remotes such as keyspan and others, however, that would be another remote to keep up with..I would really like to have only one single remote that controls everything....SOOO...I was looking into the Logitech harmony remote..which is **** expensive, but I thought it might work....But..again, the mini doesn't have an ir receiver....So im kinda stumped on what I should do...anyone have any ideas?

    I think the Keyspan is your best choice as it comes with a receiver. I have previously used one on a PowerMac with Front Row. They are cheaper than the Logitech Harmony range as well.

  • Help please! Keyboard not working after installing windows XP sp3 on T61

    I just changed to windows XP sp3 in last weekend on my T61. From then on, when I turn on the T61 every morning, the key board is not working, sometimes I could not type password. I need reboot several times to make it work. I installed the keyboard customizer utility from some online information, however, it's not helping. I searched the lenovo support website, but there are lots of drivers there,I don't know which to pick. Does anyone had met the similar issue or know how to solve it? Thanks a million!

    I have exactly the same problem. It is not related to docking for me - just regular standby/resume. A reboot solves the problem. Not exactly what you'd expect from a high-end business model. This is the first time in my over 22 years history of using computers that the keyboard fails randomly. Fix this IMIDIATELY Lenovo!

  • I lost my bluetooth after installation of Maverick2. Can anyone help me please, i cannot use my magic mouse on my Mac Book Pro  retina???

    I lost my bluetooth after installation of Maverick2. Can anyone help me please, i cannot use my magic mouse on my Mac Book Pro  retina???

    There is a fix; I finally discovered how to clear the Windows 7 xx64 Device Manager's warning of a missing Bluetooth Peripheral device.
    Thinking Boot Camp 4.0 would correct thid, I installed it ititially today only to have the warning remain.
    The Bluetooth company called Broadcom (you notice the reference during the installation of Boot Camp) offers a BlueTooth "device finder" (my phraseology) that detects all BlueTooth devices in your Apple or PC but withing a Windows operating system; included are Windows 7 , Vista, XP and even 2000 operating systems.
    So download the 3 MB file, from Broadcom.com.  While your Bluetooth equipment is plugged in to the computer, run the program.  The program searches for any BlueTooth peripheral activated equipment and BlueTooth devices that makeup your MacBook Pro, or other Apple or a plain PC computer having a Windows operating system installed.  It then downloads the appropriate software required.
    The company's URL address:
    http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth/update.php
    In my case, I ran the program, rebooted my MacBook Pro (in Windows 7 x64 and with the new Boot Camp 4.0 installed) and the missing BlueTooth peripheral device indication was eliminated.  It took 10 minutes to complete. 

  • Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player.  Does anyone know how to get around this?

    Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player.  Does anyone know how to get around this? I don't know how to wipe the hard drive, and the support online doesn't seem to work.

    As posted previously:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    If installing Leopard the process is similar in some respects.  If you wish to begin anew then after selecting the target disk click on the Options button and select the Erase and Install option then click on the OK button.  To install over an existing system do the following:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • A lot of problems after installing Windows XP using Boot Camp on a Mac Book

    I have been having a lot of problems after installing Windows XP Home Edition (2002).
    For one, after installing Windows using Boot Camp with Mac OS X 10.5.1, I opened Windows on my Mac Book, inserted the Mac OS X Disk 1 as in the instructions and got the message: +"This package requires a newer version of the Windows installer. Do you want to update the version of the Windows Installer on your system?"+ When I clicked Yes (I had NO idea what it meant at the time), I got the message: "The required resource 'UPDATE' is missing" and the Installer quit.
    How do I fix this problem?
    Another problem I have is that there is no sound on the Windows XP, yet it works perfectly on Mac OS X. Is there any way to fix this problem?
    A third problem I have is that I can't wirelessly connect to the internet using Window XP, yet I can on Mac OS X. I have no idea on how to fix this, and it's really messing with me. D:<
    D: There are way too many problems, and I have a feeling there will be a lot more later on. Help....

    What DVDs are this ?
    If it is OSX Snow Leopard Installation DVD then yes this disc contains the BootCamp Drivers version 3.x and is needed after the installation of Windows to install the BootCamp Drivers.
    With OSX Lion BootCamp is at version 4.x and the BootCamp Drivers have to be downloaded during use of the BootCamp Assistant in OSX.

    Hello Everyone,
              I have a MacBook older model with me.I am running 10.7.6 on that, I was trying to use BootCamp to install windows on my mac. Since BootCamp can only work on a single Volume, I partitioned my Hard Disk to one volume.
    Using BootCamp I installed windows and everything worked fine. After installing windows and testing everything, I switched back to OS X and this time I tried to make another partition on my single portioned Mac volume and named it Backup. That too worked. Now I have three Volumes
    1)Development2)Backup3)BootCamp.
    Next when I switched to Windows, It should the classic error, No Bootable device found, please insert a Bootable CD and press any key. When I tried to enter my Mac OS X install DVD and by pressing option key, it does not show me the proper Mac OS X development volume. It keeps going back to the No bootable device found message.
    Any help will be much appreciated
    Regards

    you can't add a partition in between - you put Windows to a new partition number.
    GPT (GUID)
    EFI
    Mac HFS
    Lion Recovery
    Windows
    And now you have two HFS
    One partition and one Windows (plus Lion Recovery).
    If you were to have more, it can't be before Windows for one thing.

Maybe you are looking for
