How to system restore windows 8 with bootcamp

Is there a way to use system restore or refresh for windows 8 partition of bookcamp? My windows 8 partition needs repair.

That's my problem. I can't get into windows. I'm stuck in a loop where when I press F8, it doesn't do anything. What I'm trying to figure out is if there is any way to system restore or refresh my windows partiton with my original install disk?

How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?

How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?
For example, a border: a black line with a width 1 and then a transparent line with a width 5. Further inner, it is the content pane.
In JavaSE, there seems to have the paintComponent() method for the JFrame to realize the effect.

Not sure why your code is doing that. I usually use an ObjectProperty<Point2D> to hold the initial coordinates of the mouse press, and set it to null on a mouse release. That seems to avoid the dragging being confused by mouse interaction with other nodes.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you installed Windows properly, you can still start in OS X and use it whenever you want. However, Boot Camp changes the startup partition to Windows, so you may note that you can't use Mac OS X.
There are two ways of starting in OS X:
1. Hold the Option (Alt) key while your computer is starting until you see all the bootable partitions in the screen, and choose your OS X partition.
2. Hold the X key while your computer is starting.
If you have a iMac or a Bluetooth keyboard, make sure you hold the key after hearing the startup chime.
If you want to start in OS X by default, after starting in OS X, open System Preferences > Startup Disk, and choose the OS X partition

How to system restore with cyberlink recovery manager without reformatting whole hard drive?

hi. i got a hp g42-200 notebook pc. i have cyberlink recovery disk. after creating disk i deleted recovery partition and make 4 extra partition. but when my notebook got virus and freezing i try to recover with recovery disk. my problem solved but my whole hard disk reformated. i try all 3 opption. system restore, factory reset and minimized install. how can system restore without deleting user created partition?
here is a hp support link that says system recovery wont repartition whole hard disk but mine not work.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02638587&lc=en&cc=uk&dlc=en#N119

Minimized recovery
"If there are user-created partitions on the hard drive, the HP Recovery Manager prompts you for permission to remove them or leave them intact."
so what exactly is not working? is it not prompting you?

After upgrading to mountain lion i keep getting an error message saying my startup disc is full. it shouldnt be full because there is barely anything on there and i was running windows with bootcamp prior to this with no issues

after upgrading to mountain lion i keep getting an error message saying my startup disc is full. it shouldnt be full because there is barely anything on there and i was running windows with bootcamp prior to this with no issues. my computer now freezes and programs close randomly. The usual command for opening windows with bootcamp doesnt work. once in restarted my computer after it froze and it rebooted in windows automatically. i really just want to know if there is a way to take the upgrade off my laptop because it is very annoying.

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

How do I install windows using BootCamp without cd drive fot the new MBP?

I need some softwares for my work (modelsim, altera, ltspices etc) but some of them only supports windows.
New MBP doesnt seem to have a cd driver.
How do I install windows using bootcamp without cd drivers?

You can use a USB thumbdrive to do this, assuming you have access to a windows machine to format the usb stick.
I installed Win7 on my MB Air (2011), which of course lacks a DVD drive altogether, using this technique.
Basically, you download a tool called rEFIt to your macbook. ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/refit/files/rEFIt/0.14/rEFIt-0.14.dmg/download ) When this is installed, it gives you a boot selector menu when you boot the Macbook ('Do you want to boot to MacOS or to the USB drive?')
Then you download and run an Apple tool called Boot Camp Assistant, which allows you to partition your HD for the two operating systems to share; it also pulls down all the windows drivers you need.
Then prep the USB thumbdrive on a windows machine to be a Win7 installer disk. You'll want a drive in the 4gb+ range I think. You have to set up the thumbdrive to be bootable (lots of tools for that available), and then copy all the windows installation files over to it.
Put the thumbdrive in the macbook and boot holding down the option key.
Choose the rEFIt icon on boot, then choose to boot from the thumbdrive, then format your new windows partition to something Win7 can handle, and install windows.
On my machine I followed a slightly more involved process and wiped out MacOS entirely. I would have kept it on a small partition if I'd had a bigger hard drive.
If you need super detailed instructions, CNET has some here:

If you have any issues after trying this, ping me and I may have solved them when I went through the same process.

Display area is too small on windows with bootcamp

My 1920x1080 display is shrunk (appears small with a black border around it) on windows with bootcamp, but looks fine on the mac side.
I'm going from the macpro display port converted to hdmi and plugged into the hdmi plug on a dell P2413T monitor which has a resolution of 1920x1080.
I'm using bootcamp with windows 7 home premium. Radeon 5870 card
All my ati drivers are updated. I took the time to update them all. The dell drivers are updated also.
The monitor looks great on the mac side. On the pc side it is shrunk so there is a black border of 3/4 inch or so around the edges. It also looks odd.
How do I resolve this. Is it a problem with the hdmi connector, the graphics card, bootcamp, windows?

What DVD drive are you using?

For the 2013 versions of macbook pro should I purchase 32 bit windows or 64 bit version to be able to install it on macbook and use windows with bootcamp?

for the 2013 versions of macbook pro should I purchase 32 bit windows or 64 bit version to be able to install it on macbook and use windows with bootcamp?

Then you might check at any of the other university book stores or software stores or any computer store in town for the 64-bit version.
If you want to use the 32-bit version from the school (you probably get it for free or very cheap) then you could purchase Parallels and run it as a virtual machine concurrently with OS X. There are some caveats:
1. You have to purchase Parallels (there may be an academic discount.) List is $79.95.
2. Your computer needs minimally 4 GBs of RAM, but realistically 8 GBs would be better.
3. Parallels creates a pseudo-drive on your hard drive. It could easily require 50 GBs of disk space.
Accommodating these might be more costly than buying 64-bit Windows 7. And, if you look online you may find them with an academic discount (or may be able to order it through the school.)

You can't unlock it without losing data. It's too late for that now. You totally erase the iPad when you unlock it and you will have to start all over again. Most of your purchased content can be downloaded again.

HT5639 Will running windows with bootcamp effect my macbook pro's overall speed

Will running windows with bootcamp effect my macbook pro's overall speed ?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
In some cases, there may be slowness in OS X because of the lack of free space. However, you shouldn't note this and in most of cases, performance is the same in Windows and OS X after installing Windows, more in the case of a MacBook Pro with Retina display.
The only thing you have to worry is to give Windows the necessary space. The MacBook Pro with Retina display hasn't got a lot of storage
