HELP! Windows 7 Partition Crashed, Now I Can't Resize My HD!

I created a Windows 7 Partition using Boot Camp a few months back. Then, suddenly, the Partition crashed. Now, it doesn't even show up in my Disk Utility and I can't remove the partition with Boot Camp or resize the HD partition with Disk Utility. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, but when I attempt to retake the empty space it acts like it is processing my request and then reverts back to the same old partition size.

Fragmented Windows partition and now I can't get that memory back.

I was removing the windows partition off of my MacBook Pro, but Boot Camp Assistant randomly closed, so I had assumed that it had finished with deleting the partition, and that all of my memory has returned just for OS X. But I still realized that half of my hard drive space was gone. I went to disk utility, and when I try to partition OS X to the full 500 GB, but it could not verify the file system verification failed. So Now when I try and install windows again, It tells me that I can only use 15 GB out of 250 GB, even though I have a 500 GB hard drive. Any methods to fix this?

Unforunately, not that I know of.

I erased my windows partition using disk utility then realized I should have used boot camp, because now I can't resize the original partition and seem to be stuck with a ghost unusable space. Boot Camp now doesn't give me the option to install or remove windows partition.

Hi, Ralph,
The problem is that I did erase the partition, using disk utility, but I can't go back to my original disk size pre-partition, as disk utility won't let me do it and gives the message "Couldn’t modify partition map because file system verification failed." When I try to use Boot Camp Assistant it won't let me select the third option to remove windows.

Hi! I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1.3 and I have iTunes 11.1.3.8. on my Windows 8. Now I can't sync my iPhone, because the device is not recognised by iTunes. Somebody have any idea why, or what can I do (except refresh the iPhone software) ?

After installing Win7, I created an 3a. partition and now I can't boot with Win7

After installing Win7 with success, I created an other data partition and now I can't boot with Win7 anymore. What can I do?
Thanks!

Thanks, hatter! But I´m new in the Mac World and that´s greek for me. I have no idea about what is BCDedit, GPT, EFI, etc... I went to your bookmarks and found many discursions there. I selected 5 that the subject looks useful for me (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3543804, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3477901,
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3360787, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3354587 and https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3199099) but, as a tipical windows user, a really new mac user and a non-american (I don´t speak English well), it´s impossible to me to understand all this.
Do you know any "how to" in this forum or i any other part of the Internet where explain step-by-step what a dummy needs to do to recover the acess to the Windows partition (my primary objective) and create an third partition (FAT32) for data acessible for both OS?
Thank you very much!

Put my macbook pro to sleep. When I opened it, the desktop window is small and I can't resize it. All applications now run in the smaller size window. Can't make it fill the screen. Just switched from windows. Thank you.

Check to see if the resolution has been changed in System Preferences.

Help! shake crashed, now can't load script it was running

I was in the process of adding a luma key when shake crashed, now can't load the script it was running. It just appears blank, but the file size hasn't changed. Console error is the name of the file +: "unknown variable Primattev22", and "can not convert type int to image". Tried to recover script, and tried the auto save versions, but didn't work. I saved about 5 minutes before the crash, but I can't get it back. Everything else opens fine.

In addition to trying the "Add Script" trick, you should also try opening the script command-line:
shake yourscriptname
...sometimes that works too.
btw - the error message should have more info - specifically the node which is having the problem:
error: test.shk, line 36: unknown variable Primattev22
LumaKey1 = LumaKey(Primattev22, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
^
error: test.shk, line 36: cannot convert type int to image
LumaKey1 = LumaKey(Primattev22, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
^
Once you know which nodes are missing their input, you can go in & find out whether the problem is a bad name in the missing node, a completely missing node or a bad name in the downstream nodes.
In your case, it is a little suspicious that the missing node is named "Primattev22" since "Primatte_v22" would be the default name for the second Primatte you load into a script. Maybe you just need to redirect the complaining node to "Primatte_v22"
(first verify that the script contains a node named "Primatte_v22")
That process would be easy...just change:
LumaKey1 = LumaKey(Primattev22, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
to
LumaKey1 = LumaKey(Primatte_v22, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
(make a backup copy of your script before you do any editing).
Good luck,

I have installed nvidia graphics drivers on windows 7 (bootcamp) now i can't use windows, it's just a black screen, how do i resolve this?

I have installed nvidia drivers from nvidias website for my geforce gt 650m on my early 2013 macbook pro retina 15", now i can't use windows in bootcamp, whenever i go into windows it turns into a black screen before i can see my desktop. How do i resolve this?

From the home screen, double click the home button to bring up the Recently used App list. Find the App with the problem and hold your finger on it untl the Apps start to shake. When that happens tap on the (x) on the right side corner of the app to close it.
Tap the home button again to get back to the home screen, and try to open the App again.
If that doesn't work, try resetting the iPad. (there should be no data loss):
Press and Hold the Power and home buttons until the Apple Logo shows up. Ignore any sliders that may appear.
When the iPad turns back on, try opening the App again.

Downloaded pics from computer to iPhone using iTunes, computer crashed, now I can't download the transferred pics off my iPhone to new computer

I Had my iPhone synced to a computer, I transferred some pics from computer to iPhone, computer then crashed. Now I can't transfer the transferred pics from my iPhone to another computer. How do I get these pics off my phone without losing them. Currently cannot update my phone because there isn't enough memory.

I do not need to get pics from my back-up on my computer. I had pics on a computer, I transferred some pics from the computer to the iphone, the computer hard drive/motherboard then crashed. Now I cannot get those same pics off my phone because the computer it was synced too crashed. That's what I'm trying to do, get those pics off my phone, they are taking too much storage space and I can't update my phone because there isn't enough memory.
I know. That is exactly what I addressed. The iPhone is not a storage/backup device.
Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?
You can e-mail them to yourself.

Do you have any such folders on your computer? I do not find any in the Caches folder on mine. They disappeared after installing Leopard. I found that simply deleting the .plist files fixed the problem in Leopard.
yes, I've got them along with the plist files. I have com.apple.helpdata and com.apple.helpui in ~/Library/Caches.

After a serios crash I had to reload windows 7 and now I can't sync my ipad

Can anyone help please?
I needed to reload windows 7 on to my laptop after a serious issue - now I cannot sync my iPad. Is there an easier solution other than to erase my library and start again?

Download the latest version of iTunes and do a reinstall of I tunes. The windows redo may have erased or replaced some of the dll files needed for I tunes to work. If you do a reinstall, it will not disturb you content.

While in Hotmail, Firefox crashed & now I can't open or delete messages, however, on the same computer-different account- my Hotmail works fine.

While a request to print a sent email was being executed (successfully), my attention was diverted away from the computer screen. When I returned, the Firefox "crash" notice was on the screen, but everything appeared fine so I didn't file a report. I exited Hotmail and later signed in and found out I can not open or delete any messages. I exited Hotmail, switched computer user accounts and opened my Hotmail under the computer's administrative account. Under the adm. account my Hotmail works without a problem. Switched back to my computer user account, signed in to Hotmail and the original problem still exists. What can I do to get Hotmail to work in my computer user account?
