I need to remove a partition from my bootcamp that doesn't appear.

I accidentally dropped my windows partitioned HS into the trash and have since emptied the trash. How do I get the HDD to show up so I can remove it using utilities?

What is Partitioned HS, did you mean HD?
Not sure what you are talking about but the only safe way to remove a Boot Camp Windows partition is by using the Boot Camp Assistant program found in the Utilities folder in Applications. Otherwise if you delete the partition with Disk Utility you might just lose the space that partition is using.

  • How can I remove an icon from my desktop that doesn't want to go?

    I was unsuccessful in installing a particular program, so I thought I would just "wipe the slate clean" and try again. Unfortunately, the icon on my desktop doesn't want to go. Every time I try to move it into the TRASH, a note on the screen says, "The icon "iScrobbler" cannot be moved to the trash because it is open".
    I've turned the computer off and on again, and I've tried the DELETE button, but the icon remains on my desktop. How can I remove it?

    There can be many reasons why a file "doesn't want"
    something. But you may be able to replace the file if
    you can rename it. Follow the steps here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107426
    If that doesn't help, you may need to delete it using
    root user privileges. That's a very advanced and
    risky method so you should consult with someone who
    is experienced with that process. I have done it many
    times to delete goofed files that have a mind of
    their own.
    It didn't work, I'm sorry to say, but thanks for the idea. As to the "root user privileges" method, I wouldn't even consider it. My computer "skills" are definitely not at the level for trying anything that could be described in those terms. Still, there is hope. I found the creator of the program and sent him an e-mail message this morning.
    Finally, I'd like to thank you again for your extraordinary performance. Talk about "service above and beyond.." well, that certainly describes you. I somehow feel that if you couldn't...no, no, let's not say that, let's just hope that the program's creator will be able to help. Thanks again for what you have done.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Push notification from an app that doesn't appear in notification settings

    I recently upgraded the OS and all my apps on my iPhone.  Now I am getting push notifications from an app called geared.  I want to turn these off, so I go to Settings->Notifications and from there I want to go to Geared but there is no Geared button.  And yet this app is sending me push notifications.  It's very annoying.  How can I turn these off?  I'm on an iPhone 3G running iOS 4.1.2.

  • Need to remove 'Returns' Qty from the plant (MMBE)

    In stock overview MMBE, there is no unrestricted qty. but there is some Qty in "Returns", how we need to remove this Qty from this plant..there is no stock in transit for this material for this plant? but there is some stock in transit in some other plant.
    I am not sure what the purchase order/STO is.  I have reviewed all of the past stock transfers with this material on them and cannot find one open, they need to get this material removed.
    Please suggest how we can remove this Returns Qty from this plant (MMBE)?
    Thanks in advance
    Suresh..

    if you have stock in returns status in MMBE, then you can move it into unrestricted status with 453, into own blocked status with 459.
    this returns stock is created when you post a goods receipt to a return delivery. returns stock is not financially owned by you, it is non-valuated stock until you transfer it with an extra movement (453 or 459) into own stock.

    I need to remove a device from my Itunes account. The device is not operating and I am on the road.

    What sort of transaction ?
    If it's an auto-renewing subscription that is due then there are instructions on this page for managing and stopping them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
    If it's a pre-order that is being released then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5714
    If it's something that you've already 'paid for' then purchases are considered final, but you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will cancel/refund it : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How do I remove a movie from my Wishlist that I have already bought?

    How do I remove a movie from my Wishlist that I have already bought? If a movie is on the wishlist that I don't own, I can hit remove. If I have bought it, then it has no way of being removed.
    It's a bug that needs fixing.

    Many thanks but that did not help. I have numerous movies in my ITunes account. I have downloaded a previously purchased film from my Icloud account onto my phone. Obviously, this takes up about 3gb of memory. I therefore, need to push this film back into the cloud thereby removing it from my device. The advice from the link you provided is to swipe the film and you will get a delete marker. You don't. When I go on videos and then films all I get is a list of films I have previously purchased on my ITunes account. I have swiped them every which way it is possible to swipe something but I still don't get a delete or remove button.

    How do I remove a toolbar from my homepage that was added when I downloaded software?

    What is the name of the toolbar?
    It depends on how the toolbar was installed:

    *Some are simple extensions and can be un-installed in Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
    *Some are installed as programs and are un-installed in (Windows) Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs

  • Anyone know how to remove Overdrive books from my iphone that have been transferred from my computer? They do not show up on itunes. I see a lot of answers to this question but they all are based on being able to see the books in iTunes.

    How do I remove Overdrive books from the library that were downloaded onto my computer then transferred to my iphone? The problem is that they do not show up in iTunes.
    I see this question asked a lot when I google, but they always give answers that assumes you can find the books in iTunes either under the books tab, or the audio books tab or in the music. They do not show up anywhere for me. They do not remove from the app like the ones I downloaded directly onto my iphone.the related archived article does not answer it either.  I even asked a guy working at an apple store and he could not help either.   Anybody...?
    Thanks!

  • InDesign CC fails to remove the pages from the catalog that I have prepared! [was: HELP!!!!]

    InDesign CC fails to remove the pages from the catalog that I have prepared!
    It stops the program suits the times and I have to make a forced exit!
    This puts a very important issue!
    We seek the solution in the short term.

    Just done: the application crashes trying to export IDML!!!
    This is not a good sign. Try moving the pages to another document using the Pages panel menu.
    But you should also try copying all the items on one page and pasting them into another document.
    Then when you've got a few pages in the new document, try moving or deleting them. Or try exporting as IDML.
    Also, build a completely new sample document (doesn't have to be all the information) from scratch and try deleting/moving those pages.
    This will help us see if it's just one document or all.
