I have os x 10.6.6 and I need to remove a partition from boot camp and I no longer have a boot camp assistant...HELP!!!

HELP! You've heard of builders who never get their house finished? Well, I have a husband who could do this and a friend of my husband's who can also but they REFUSE to help me or at least keep forgetting (conveniently). I'm at wits end and am contemplating taking it to the shop. UGH!! I no longer have a boot camp assistant (I tried to do this before last year and gave up and bought a pc as my work programs wouldn't work with Mac.) What can I do?
Thank you!!!!!

Niels approach to get the BootCamp Assistant back is recommended because usually the correct way to remove your Windows partition is to use the BootCamp Assistant again which should give you the option to remove the made Windows partition and revert back to one OSX volume.
After that's done a reboot of your Mac might be advisable.
Only if that's not working (whatever the reason) :
1) boot your Mac from your OSX install DVD
2) choose your language and then 'ignore' (cancel) the installation
3) from the Top Menu (Utilities) start Disk Utility (DU)
4) in DU click on your harddisk (not any partition) in the left pane (the first item listed)
5) in the right pane use the 'Partition'-Tab
6) click to highlight on the ex-Windows partition you want to delete
7) click on the small '-' Button at the bottom
That should delete your former Windows partition
After that's done successfully
8) Drag the partition separator line until it encompasses the entire drive and then select apply.
9) Quit Disk Utility
10) reboot your Mac from your harddisk.
Since you are 'fumbling' with your OSX partition you should consider having/making a backup of it before trying the a.m. procedure. Just in case.

Deleted Recovery Partition and It no longer shows up on reboot! HELP!

Accidently deleted Recovery Partition and it no longer shows up on reboot! HELP! I'm trying to install windows on my mac so i do some CAD, but i don't want to proceed without getting the Recovery Partition back.

If you deleted the Recovery volume, the only way to create your Recovery HD again is by reinstalling OS X. If your Mac came with the OS X version you have, start in Internet Recovery (holding Command, Option and R keys) and reinstall OS X

They were already at v9 when Lion came out and decided that official support would be for v9 only; see here.
According to this, the only thing PPC in v9 and v8 are video encoding for SWF export -- looks like an XTension according to System Profiler. Given their position of not officially supporting v8.x in Lion, that will probably always remain broken in v8. I use v8.5.1 in Lion; works fine for me -- I don't do any SWF exporting.
I have a few other things on my MBP, recently upgraded to Lion; I upgraded just about every app to the latest versions with exception of Quark. The only other PPC things besied that XTension are some scripts from Adobe Illustrator CS5.1, which got installed with CS 5.5. I guess Adobe forgot to upgrade those. No biggie, I never use them.

Hi friends.. I just bought an used iPod 5 touch. I am trying to set it up. But it says it is already linked to some icloud email account and they need to remove this device from their account. Who sold it is not responding now. Please suggest on what 2 do

need your help

Hey VPKR, Nice of you to try, but not really. Apple will do nothing without a count order and it's not likely you are doing to get one. The only way you can find out information that may tell you who the owner is, would require the password-- it's a "Catch 22." Turn the iPod over to the police, give then all the information you have about the person that sold it to you, and go from there. If bought online, through a web site like eBay, etc. contact the site about a possible fraudulent sale, you may some recourse to either get your money back and the web site can block this person from trying this again. Follow the instructions the web site gives you about what to do with the iPod. They may tell you send back to them or give it to the police. If you used a check or credit card, call your bank or card company and put out a stop payment, then turn this iPod over to the police. Hope this helps. Thanks for being an honest person. Cheers.

Got an iPhone 4 and after updating to iOS 6 my wifi is dropping off constantly and can no longer send pics on iMessage any help?

I am so done with this crappy updating, first it was that I could no longer keep on my wifi for more than a few minutes coz it cuts off continuously and now I can no longer send pics with my iMessage. Going to switch to another brand. It's overpriced and its giving me lots of headaches

HT204150 Can I either remove all contacts from the iCloud or have the contacts on my phone override the contacts in the iCloud. I need to remove 50+ contacts from the cloud that keep resyncing to my phone. It takes over a minute to remove each contact man

Is there a way to remove all of my contacts from the iCloud? My phone has my correct contacts list. When I sync with iCloud it pulls down 50+ contacts that I do not want. I went to iCloud to remove the unwanted contacts and it takes nearly 1 minute for each one. Another soluntion would be to make my phone contacts override my iCloud contacts?

Go to your Contacts on your Mac - if more than one pick the most accurate; delete any contacts you don't want. Select all the contacts, and from the File menu choose 'Export...'>'Export vCard'. Save the resultant file safely: it will be your 'master' list.
Now delete all the contacts from whichever device has the most in it. Sync with iCloud. If necessary repeat with different Macs. The result should be that the deletions sync to iCloud and in the end you finish up with empty Contacts lists everywhere.
Now you can import your saved file to one of your Macs. Make sure you import it under 'iCloud' not 'On My Mac'. Then it should propagate iCloud and any other devices. Keep the saved file at least until you are satisfied that all is in order.

My old original i-pad has died and is no longer re-chargable either. Please help.

My I-Pad has died. Will no longer accept a charge and the screen is blank. It was working fine until recently. It seems as though when I updated my i-phone 4S, my I-pad no longer working. Odd? Yes, but true. Please help if you know anything about this. It is the original I-Pad # 1 . I cannot afford a new one right now.

I just updated my Iphone and can no longer find my notes...

I just updated my Iphone to iOS 6.1.3 and can no longer find my "notes". Please help!

Notes usually sync with a mail service i.e gmail, yahoo, aol, etc. Do you have a mail account setup on your product? If so, have you went into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Select your mail account > see if notes are toggled on

How to remove songs/albums from Iphone 5 S and itunes library inorder to add new songs

I have an Iphone 5, 7.1.2 model. I have been attempting to add new songs onto my phone but do not have any available space. Although I have deleted and removed apps and other space eating products from my phone, I still do not have enough space to add the new songs that I would like to include on my phone. The final option would be for me to remove some songs from my phone that I no longer listen to. Problem is, I can't seem to find a way or any direction on just how to do that. Wonder if anyone has successfully removed songs from their phone and/or library as a way to free up space to replace them with new songs?
