TTBOMK the only way you can increase the Windows partition is to repartition the drive back to a single partition
Then reinstall Mountain Lion
Restore all data from backup
Create new larger partition with Boot Camp
Install Windows
Restore data from backup

    You should contact Apple by phone as soon as possible. You'll need to change your Apple ID and all passwords.
    See Contact Apple at the bottom right of this page.
    Hope this helps.

    Ok Great,
    Will installing Boot Camp drivers allow me to both read and write to the OS X Volume from windows?
    This is important as if it will it means i can make the windows partition a lot smaller and keep all my files on the OS X partition which would be preferable.
    Jon
    No, OSX will be read only (from Windows) and vice versa. (you can install 3rd party utilities on either or both partitions, to make read/write possible)

    I updated my iPhone 3G today and after the update it said on iTunes that my sim was not compatible and my iPhone screen went on to slide for emergency/connect to itunes. Ive tried restoring it but it hasnt worked. Please help!

    Unless the iPhone was purchased  as unlocked very recently directly from an Apple Store (the only place in the US where unlocked iPhones are sold, and then only since June), which from the symptoms I doubt is the case, then it was locked to AT&T and jailbroken to make it work with an Irish cell carrier. Updating the operating system has now relocked the iPhone back to AT&T.
    Only the cell carrier can institute an official unlock, one which will hold across updates of the operating system, and AT&T will not do so for any reason. All we can advise here is that you return the iPhone to your uncle and purchase an iPhone there in Ireland.
    Regards.

    I erased my windows partition using disk utility then realized I should have used boot camp, because now I can't resize the original partition and seem to be stuck with a ghost unusable space. Boot Camp now doesn't give me the option to install or remove windows partition.

    Hi, Ralph,
    The problem is that I did erase the partition, using disk utility, but I can't go back to my original disk size pre-partition, as disk utility won't let me do it and gives the message "Couldn’t modify partition map because file system verification failed." When I try to use Boot Camp Assistant it won't let me select the third option to remove windows.

    YOu can only do that if you had find my iphone setup and activated prior to having your phone stolen.
    Then you log into icloud.com to remote wipe, but your phone has to be connect to wifi or cellular data to do that.

  • I bought the ilife '11 iphoto upgrade.  It was supposed to update my library.  It has been 2 days and it is still loading. I have tried restarting with no change. Please help!

    I bought the ilife '11 iphoto upgrade.  It was supposed to update my library.  It has been 2 days and it is still loading. I have tried restarting with no change. Please help!

    Make a back up now.
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    Then go on to Option 2

  • Windows partition inexplicably full - please help!

    I just created a 16GB partition on a MacBookPro for Boot Camp to play Star Trek Online. The system requirements for the game was 10GB, but after the install of Windows XP (plus all the updates to date) and then the game, I am getting a low HD space error! No way XP takes up 6GB...? I was under the impression XP only took up about 2GB. I have installed nothing other than XP and the game (and the latest Boot Camp 3.1 drivers).
    There is currently 102MB free on the drive.
    I would have created a larger partition, but I was unable to do so because I kept getting an "unable to move files" error. I read somewhere that it could be because of disk fragmentation (there is actually 47GB free on the entire MacBookHD), so I ran a defrag app. But I still got the error until I dropped the partition to down to 16GB. Maybe this has something to do with the unaccounted for space on the Boot Camp partition? Just a guess.
    Anyway, what do I do at this point? The process of installing XP and the game took several hours and Im not looking forward to doing it again! Is there any way I can salvage the situation?

    It's my brother's MacBook Pro and its the only computer he has.
    I thought XP took 2GB (I actually read this online somewhere--I didnt pull the # out of a hat) so I did double what I thought and allowed for 4GB, leaving me 2GB for temp files and STOL patches. Unfortunately the info I found was incorrect.
    Well anyway, what you say is not necessarily true because I have XP Home with all the updates (including SP3) and it only took up just about 6GB. Add the 10GB of STOL and the remaining for XP maxes out my 16GB partition.
    Hopefully it takes up less and I can clean up around 1GB worth of temp files from all the XP upgrades and STOL installation. I just dont know where or how to clean those out--if there even are any.

  • I upgraded to iOS 5 and I went from having about 15GB of free space to being 4 GB over capacity.  Any solutions which save me from having to re-organize all of my apps?

    After I upgrded to iOS 5, the category of other is taking up 15.3 GB of space.  Prior to the upgrade, I had approx. 15GB of free space on my 64 GB iPad.  My concern is that the only solution to this problem that occurred from the "upgrade" is that I have to do a factory reset.  If I do a factory reset, there are two big pain points.
    1) The amount of time that it will take to get all of my stuff back onto the iPad.  When I first got the iPad, it took about 2 days for the music, videos, and photos to load.
    2) Re-organizing my apps.  I currently have my 229 apps organized into 11 folders and 8 screens.  I know this is a lot of apps, but I don't want to have to go through the struggle of getting it all organized as it is today.  Is there any way to get all of the apps organized the same way post-reset that will not involve a whole lot of work by me?
    I have tried to call Apple support to get help on this, but I have gone through 4 phone calls with hold times averaging 45 minutes before speaking to someone.  After all of this time and effort, their solution is a factory restore and do all the work myself.

    Hi again
    The problem isn´t solved but we now know what it is.
    Because I couldn´t upgrade the last 1-2 times with iTunes I though the problem was my iPod touch 3. generation, so when I heard that Apple couldn´t find or re-create the problem(s), then I flipped out. Sorry about that.
    Because it looks as the problem belong to the Philips speakersystem (real name is DCM 580).
    So when I received my touch back today and after speaking with Apple - DK, I looked at Philips support and found a firmware upgrade to the speakersystem from Sept. 23, 2011. Did upgrade my speakersystem and after that the rechargesystem through the dockconnection worked again. And at this afternoon on the homepage of my speakersystem, Philips tells us, that they have created a firmware update that only needs approval and then will be released at the homepage. So it looks at the whole problems was to some compatibility problems with the speakersystem after upgrading to iOS 5.0.
    Its not easy to know where to start when 2 or more units are involved these days
    Looked in the mirrow then I ofcourse know very well that we allways shall look for firmware and drive updates before anything else. This time I missed that because I have upgraded several time since February and uptil the day before upgrading to iOS 5.0 and none of thise upgrades had any needs for speakersystem upgrades.
    Friendly regards

  • Problem removing partition using CCC please help

    Yesterday I tried using CCC to clone my hard drive to a 2TB Lacie external hard drive I purchased at local Apple store. All I did was follow CCC instructions but after 3 attempts and communicating with CCC help I've given up. But I have a problem in that I partitioned my HD into 2 and cannot delete the bottom partition to regain the 120GB there. I'm trying to copy and paste here but so far can only copy this:
      Disk Description : Hitachi HTS545025B9SA02 Media  Total Capacity : 250.06 GB (250,059,350,016 Bytes)
      Connection Bus : SATA  Write Status : Read/Write
      Connection Type : Internal  S.M.A.R.T. Status : Verified
      Partition Map Scheme : GUID Partition Table
    I'll try to describe as best I can. The Partition Layout:
    pulldown is greyed out but says "Current"
    The top partition is called Macintosh HD and is mostly blue. When I put my pointer on it this comes up; "This is the startup partition. You can't erase it. Size 124.6GB. Available Space: 30.03 GB"
    The bottom partition is called Macintosh HD2 and is almost all white. When I place the pointer over it; "Size 124.47 GB. Space Available 118.74 GB"
    On the right hand side of the screen there are instructions, "To erase and partition the selected disk, choose a layout from the Partition Layout pop up menu, select options for each partition and click Apply."
    I can't do this because the pop up menu is greyed out.
    I can change the size of the partition which doesn't help.
    I tried simply clicking on the Macintosh HD2 partition and clicking the "-" box but could not unmount the partition.
    "Options", "Revert", and "apply" all are greyed out
    I can highlite Macintosh HD2 on the left hand side and click erase to erase any data on it, but don't hinkthat's a very good idea.
    I just want to restore the HD to it's original single partition and try another shot at cloning, maybe with SUPERDUPER. Any  help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.
    Keith

  • Reaching free space with SAP DB on Windows

    Hi!
    I am using SOLMAN with SAP DB on Windows and (funnily enough) reaching the free space on my computer (no arching mode is activated).
    Can some one tell me how to proceed in this case (can I put away the log files or the data files that are not being used). How can I extend the free space without much effort?
    Is there some useful transactions (like db02 in oracle) to manage the SAP DB?
    Thank you!
    regards

    Hello Axel,
    -> You wrote:
    "can I put away the log files or the data files that are not being used"
    What do you mean by that?
    -> If you think that you oversize the data & log area during the creation of the database, please let me know the configuration of the data & log volume in the database, provide the output of the command 'param_getvolsall'. What is the filling of the data & log area? What is the version of your database?
    -> Please review the SAP note: 869267 FAQ: MaxDB LOG area
       < You will find the answer on the questions
         "25. What should I bear in mind if the log area is saved to files?"
         "26. How do I archive the log backup files generated?"
        and more ... >
    -> As of 7.6 version you could use 'db_deletevolume' command, you could find details in MAXDB library to delete the datavolume for the reducing size of the dataarea, if the size of the data area was oversized.
       To reduce size of the log area < or shrink the log area > and reduce the size of the data area in the earlier releases of the database => use the Homogeneous system copy with MaxDB using backup/restore procedure < SAP Note No. 129352 >.

  • Hard Disk free space lick after system restore windows 8.1

    I did a system restore and after that, the laptop was functioning slowly. I realised that the disk usage was spiking. Later I realised also that I was constanlty loosing free space from my hard disk without downloading anything or any action. I run the windows
    performer recorder when the spikes occurs.Link in OneDrive https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=26DCEC24336471AC%21106  . Furthermore when the laptop is on idle the disk usage goes to 100%. Task manager shows that most of the usage is from svchost.exe(defragsvc).
    (I dont think it is a scheduled act from windows to run defragging at the moment). What could be? Any advice?

    Hi,
    From your recorder information, we could see these 5 process below take high disk space:
    WPRUI.exe
    System
    vprot.exe
    avgui.exe
    avgcefrend.exe
    Since you run the Windows performance toolkit to trace the log, exclude WPRUI.exe and system. It seems you use AVG product.
    I suggest you disable or uninstall them temporarily to check if the disk usage decrease.
