How do i remove from my desktop the UNTITLED hard drive of Boot Camp?

Its just sitting there, but i doesent to anything, any way to get rid of the icon from the desktop?
tnx
Week 27 17" MacBook Pro 2.16 100GB@7200rpm Glossy 1GB ram   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   Runing Bootcamp (games), Parallels (applications)

but its a read only, y cant rename the file...
I haven't used Boot Camp, so this is just a guess, but...
I'm guessing you're trying to rename the Book Camp partition when booted from Mac OS X? If so, can you rename it when you're booted from Windows, instead?
If not, I'd suggest asking in the Boot Camp forum. (Or, rather, searching there first if you haven't; asking if you don't find the answer already posted.)
Not that you can't ask here - you're just more likely to get more targeted answers there.

    If you have Lion installed, and run Boot Camp, it will create the boot flash for you, just followe the tutorial on screen. As far as I remember, this was not possible prior to Lion.

    Type move itunes library into the google serach bar.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain  abackup copy of your computer.  Do you not have a backup copy?

  • How to import metadata from Address Book on external hard drive to new laptop running OSX 10.8.3?

    My old MacBook died a painful death.  I retrieved the hard drive and have it in a portable enclosure that has a USB connection.  I can see the old Address Book on it, but when I transfered the Address Book application to my new MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.3, the application will transfer, but it won't open because it is not supported on the newer MacBook.  I searched around the old hard drive for any files that could be related to the Address Book contact data.  I found metadata files for each of my contacts.  I can get the metadata to transfer to the new MacBook, but I can't seem to do anything with it.
    I tried using Migration Assistant, doing it manually, trying to import the metadata using "import" feature on the new version of Address Book.  Can't seem to find anything that works.
    Any suggestions?  Thank you in advance.

    If you open a contacts database from an earlier version of OS X, the data should be imported automatically. Is that what you tried to do?

  • How to tranfer photos from iPhoto/Finder to external hard drive?

    I read that in order to enable Mac to write to, erase or reformat NTFS devices (my external hard drive), I need to get NTFS-3G. Besides NTFS-3G, I also need Macfuse, which is problematic with Lion. Can anyone please comment, advice or share their experiences? Thanks.

    No idea - you actaully have to share details
    What version of iPhoto and of the OS?
    What format is the external hard drive? What is the exact error message you get?what didn't work about exporting?  What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
    If you want the iPhoto library to operate on an external drive the way is
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • How do you clone a hard drive with boot camp?

    My daughter got a new 13" Macbook pro in July.  She is still running Lion.  Se started to exerience system freezes.  She called Applye support which had her reset the PRAM(?).  The the system would no longer boot.  When she went away to college, I sent her off with an external usb drive partitioned for Tme Machine and also with a partition of a copy of her system from that date.  She was able to boot into that and continue her work.  The internal hard drive did not show up as a boot option, but was accessible one she had booted to the external drive.  This morning the internal drive was an option when she did the boot to external.  My son had a similar situation a few years ago with a Mac mini and it turned out to be a failing internal hard drive.  We have decided to continue from the external HD until she comes home for Thanksgiving and can go to the local Apple store.  In addition to OSX she also has bootcamp with Windows 7.  Now to my question.  Is there a way to clone her internal hard drive including the Windows bootcamp?  I would like to create a clone we can use for a restore as we expect the internal drive will be replaced.  Time Machine can replce the OSX system, but I am thinking if we can do an exact copy of the internal drive, then we would not have to reinstall or recover the Windows system.  Any ideas?  Would Carbon Copy or Super Duper work better?  I believe one of them has a family license so that I could use it for the other kids cloning as well. 

    You can't clone the entire drive. You can clone the OS X partition and the Windows partition separately.
    Cloning OS X should be done with Disk Utility or Carbon Copy Cloner. The Windows volume can be cloned using Windows software, Winclone 3.5, or Volume Snapshot.

  • HT201250 How to restore laptop from time capsule after replacing hard drive

    How do I reload all my programs and files from a time capsule after changing hard drive?  Also Apple store reloaded with Snow Leopard and not Lion.  Will that be a problem?  Thank you

    Plug the external drive into a computer by usb or whatever box you have available..
    When you say blank, is it correctly formatted.. we recommend HFS+ which is Mac OS Extended (jorrnaled)
    Make sure you use GUID type disk setup not MBR if it came from PC world.
    Copy the files via finder from TC to the external drive.

    Well sometimes it won't boot, but the drive is fine.
    You'll have to run through these steps and depending what occurs (or doesn't) will give you a clue, if you need to replace the drive and restore from the TM drive.

    Hi Perilman,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that all of your iTunes media is on an external hard drive and you would like to move that media onto your new Windows computer hard drive. The following article has step by step instructions for this specifically. Part 5 in the External drive section is probably what is going to be most relevant to you.

  • My 2010 imac does not recognise my time machine since I had the Seagate replacement hard drive. Any thought from anyone? The External hard drive is a 1 TB seagate

    My iMac (2010 intel model) does not recognise or communicate with my external seagate drive as a time machine for back ups since I had the 1TB Seagate replacement hard drive as part of the replacement prgram with OSX LION 10.5.8 installed.
    Is this because I need to update the time machine drive itself?

  • How to eliminate authorization from a PC that crash, hard drive?  I want to have available authorizaton for another computer.

    Hi,

    I want to eliminate the autorization so I can have an available authorization for another computer.
    Thanks for your help.

    You don't need to. Wait until you reach maximum of 5 Authorized computers to deauthorize all then re-authorize new ones again. Refer to this article:
