I can no longer do a single partition with my macbook pro

after installing mavericks. I had a win 7 installed but it stopped working after the OS upgrade so i deleted the that partition hoping to do a clean install of win 7 again but i am having issues doing a single partition. i am getting this error - Partition failed with the error:  Couldn’t modify partition map because file system verification failed.

Hi I am having a similar issue maybe you can help me.
I have been trying to make a partition lately for windoes 8.1
I have OSK Mavericks and I tried both using bootcamp to make a partition and then I tried using disk utility to make a partition.  I have looked up how to fix it such as verifying the disk or verifying the disk on the repair drive. I have also tried typing in that command in the Command+S startup. 
Nothing is working I am getting errors every time.  I really really really need help here.  I cannot figure out what is wrong.   If you could help me that would be very appreciated.
(Btw the first time I tried partitioning through Bootcamp it was working but then I ejected my usb as it was making the partition and it gave me an error.  Partitioning has been giving me errors ever sense that.)

  • Why does it take SO long to synchronize my iphone with my macbook pro

    Hi fellow users,
    It takes unbelievable long for my iPhone 4S to synchronise with my MacBook Pro. Happens everytime.
    I started the synch early yesterday evening (19:00). It is now 10:35 the following day and it is still not finished.
    Has anyone any ideas?
    Have a great day Desmond, a Brit living in Germany.

    I have this aggravating issue as well, only I just have an iPhone 4s 16GB (yes, STILL!).  One of the (many) reasons I haven't upgraded is the deteriorating performance factors induced by Apple.  If it takes forever to sync just a 16GB iPhone, syncing a 64GB or 128GB iPhone must be an all day test of aggravation!  Since I'm finding no credible or relevant answers here I thought I'd post my observations.  When I watch the sync process, I can see that the procedure backs up my iPhone data, removes it from the phone, then reinstalls it again with any updates to the data since the last sync.  This is a programming "feature".  I don't know what the reasons are for not designing the sync process to handle only changed data as in any other data backup process.  Maybe it's laziness at Apple, maybe it's a technical issue that their programmers are incapable of solving, or maybe there's a monitoring aspect involved that this method allows Apple to collect information on users more effectively.  I just don't know their reasons for this, or many baffling things they do.  I do know that if their corporate data backups were performed in the same manner in which the iPhone sync is performed, there would never be a break in the backup processes at Apple, nor would the process ever complete.  It's ludicrous to program the SW (iTunes) run this inefficiently.  I can't fathom having a larger capacity iPhone and dealing with the constant aggravation of what must be hours to sync simple data changes caused only by the poor routine programmed into iTunes.  From what I can see, it's basically like loading a blank phone every time I want to sync data.  Completely ridiculous as far as I can tell.  Even if the reasoning is to remove dead sectors, blank sectors etc, I'd think with all the money Apple has and makes on a quarterly basis, they could afford to spend the time and money in R&D to make the sync process a **** of lot more tolerable for users.

  • Can I use a touch screen monitor with my macbook pro?

    I am doing a lot of photo organization and thought it would be easier if I had a touch screen monitor attached to my macbook pro.  Has anyone tried this and if so, what brand did you use.
    Thanks
    Bob

    All a touchscreen is going to do is replace your mouse or trackpad, you can't use two hands at once to gain any speed advantage organizing photo's.
    Also it would have to be a pretty big touch screen, place your two hands over a 17" screen and most of the screen is blocked.
    If you need something like that, talk to Microsoft, they have a "Big @ss table" that does that.
    Gives me a backache just looking at those people

  • Can't log into The Cloud Wifi with Retina Macbook Pro

    Hi there,
    I've researched this extensively online but haven't found a solution so far.
    Usually, when logging into The Cloud on my iPad Air or iPhone 4S at locations like Caffe Nero, I have no problem connecting: I connect in the device's settings, and then when opening the browser, reach the The Cloud landing page which lets me log on and properly use the Wifi.
    The other day I tried doing this with my brand-spanking-new Macbook Pro with Retina (mid-2014), and the landing page just wouldn't show up. So I couldn't log on; internet-enabled apps weren't working and I only had very limited access to Google. I tried both Safari and Chrome and refreshed multiple times.
    If anyone has any ideas, I'd hugely appreciate it! Thanks!

    Hi there.
    I can't help you unfortunately, but I have exactly the same problem. My macbook air mid 2012 used to connect to the Cloud wifi, like my iPhone 5 and iPad 2 still do no problem via the login landing page, but now though the bar at the top of my screen shows me connected, I don't get taken to the landing page (and I can't get there by manually feeding its address in either) and hence can't connect to the internet.
    If you do get a resolution I'd obviously be very interested.
    Sorry I can't help, but you're not alone with this problem.

  • Can't set up Airport base stations with new MacBook Pro

    i have a brand new, late-2013 15" MacBook Pro running Mavericks. my attempts, using this machine, to set up my sixth-generation, 802.11ac Airport Extreme and my brand-new, whatever-generation 802.11n Airport Express purchased yesterday at an Apple Store (that means it's the current generation, with the power cord) - these attempts all fail with Airport Utility saying it's joining the base station for about a minute and a half, after which it stops trying and says, "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again."
    i can set up both of those base stations effortlessly with my iPhone.
    furthermore, i seem to be able to use this MacBook Pro to set up my fifth-generation, 802.11n Airport Extreme just fine - even when it's all the way across the house and my attempts to set up the sixth-generation one, which is a foot away from my MBP, are failing.
    why can i set these devices up with my iPhone and not with the newest, best, fastest, fanciest, most powerful laptop Apple makes?
    thank you.

    mmm...okay. thank you, Bob.
    for now, i've got the base stations configured via my iPhone, and once configured, my MBP can see and use them just fine. it just irks the **** out of me that my brand-new top-of-the-line MacBook Pro can't handle this simple task, and should have to use a wired connection to set up my base stations (how archaic!). it may be the only device i have with me one day when i want to set up an Airport base station (okay, that's unlikely, but it's the principle of the thing, dammit).
    are we sure this is a matter of bugs in Mavericks, and not a hardware problem with my MBP or something?
    many thanks.

  • Why can't I pair my Iphone 5 with my Macbook pro?

    I tried to bluetooth my phone to my Macbook pro and it will not pair. Is there anything I'm doing wrong?

    What do you want to do after pairing?
    If what you want is to stars Sync, they have to be on the same WIFI, bluetooth i think it's only if you want to use your Iphone5 as Internet Port
    Also, Apps like Remote and Spotify, using your iphone as "remote control" it's via Wi-Fi
