Lost bootcamp capability when upgrading from OS X Mavericks to OS X Yosemite 10.10?

When upgrading from OS X Mavericks to OS X Yosemite 10.10 while dual booting with Windows 7 on my bootcamp partition, I can't access the Windows partition any more. When I restart my computer and hold the alt key the only drives that are shown are my Mac OS X and Recovery (usually there is the bootcamp drive there too). Does anyone have any solutions? I can still access my windows 7 files from within my Mac partition weirdly enough. And if there aren't any solutions, is bootcamp broken on Yosemite? Is it safe to redo the process and put a fresh Windows 7 or Windows 8 partition back on bootcamp again? I'm not tech savvy enough to understand all of the coding components so if you want to walk me through it you can, or just provide a simple explanation, any help is grateful. Thanks for your help.

Welcome To Discussions Dedesu!
Here is some additional info.
Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can also be purchased rather inexpensively, at some additional online Apple retailers, like Amazon, FastMac, etc, and as posted, eBay.
As also posted, be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs. They will not work.
Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.
Unless purchased from AppleRescue, the discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.
Additional info here Using OS X Install CDs/DVDs On Multiple Macs.
Once Panther 10.3.x is installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final version.
If your Mac meets the Tiger System Requirements, you could also consider installing that, and then use the PPC 10.4.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the current version.
Panther Install & Upgrade Hints
Additionally, "Tiger ships on a DVD, but if your Mac doesn’t have a built-in DVD-ROM player, you’ll need CD media."
AppleRescue, also sells a Tiger installation set on CD.
Shop Carefully, Examine All Documentation, And I Wish You Success!

  • I lost my history when upgraded from 3.6 to 4.0. How do I recover?

    When I upgraded from Firefox 3.6 latest to Firefox 4 on March 22, my history disappeared. Looking at the places.sqlite file, it looks like it created a new one and renamed the older one .corrupt. The file wasn't corrupt in 3.6 - it worked fine! Even when I restore a backup copy of the file from last week, as soon as I start Firefox 4 it renames the existing file and creates a new one. If I'd known this would happen, I wouldn't have upgraded! Can this be fixed?

    Extensions may need updates to work with Firefox. But your passwords, bookmarks, form data will be preserved between the versions.

  • Lost tags, etc. when upgraded from Elements 2 to 6, and XP to Vista on new computer.

      I was using Photoshop Album 2 on old XP computer. About a year ago, I got new computer with Vista and I installed Photoshop Elements 6 on it. I had copied files from old computer onto a flash drive, then from the flash drive to the new computer. The pictures came over fine, but I lost all of the tagging. Any way to get that back?

    You need to find the PSA2 catalog file, and copy that as well. I believe the default name of the file is My Catalog.psa, but I don't know where it would have been stored. You could search your hard disk for *.psa (turning on the feature to search in hidden fodlers). Then, you will have to convert the catalog to PSE6 (File->Catalog->Convert).
    Or, in PSA2, File->Backup Catalog and then in PSE6 File->Restore Catalog

  • When upgrading from OS X lion to OS X mountain lion will it automatically uninstall OS X lion

    when upgrading from OS X lion to OS X mountain lion will it automatically uninstall OS X lion?

    Yes. You download Mountain Lion from the App Store and, once the download is complete, the installation of Mountain Lion will begin. You can quit it at this point and backup the "Install OS Mountain Lion.app" (which I suggest) the double-click it and begin the installation.
    All remnants of Lion will be gone and you'll be running Mountain Lion.
    Good luck,

  • Best practice for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?

    Does anyone know the best pratice for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?
    Current users have Microsoft Excel 2003 with Smartview 9.3.1.2.1.003.
    Computers are being upgraded to Microsoft Excel 2007.
    What is the best pratice for Smartview in this situation?
    1. Do nothing with Smartview and just install Excel 2007.
    2. Install Excel 2007 and then uninstall and reinstall Smartview
    3. Uninstall Smartview, Install Excel 2007, and then install Smartview
    4. Somthing else??
    Thanks!

    We went with option 1 and it worked out fine. Be aware that SV processes noticeably slower in Excel 2007 than 2003. Many users were/are unhappy with the switch. We haven't tested SV v11 yet, so I'm not sure if it has improved performance with Excel 2007 or not (hopefully it does).

  • When upgrading from osx 10.7.4 to osx mountain lion I get the following Alert!  This update requires OS X version 10.8.

    When upgrading from osx 10.7.4 to osx mountain lion I get the following Alert!  This update requires OS X version 10.8.

    Sounds like you downloaded the 10.8.1 update instead of the Mountain Lion installer from the Mac App Store.
    You have to purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store to get to 10.8

  • Serial number not valid when upgrading from LR4 to LR5 [was:leewayphotography]

    J’ai acheté LR 4 il y a 1 an avec le n° de série sur la boite. J’ai acheté l’upgrade pour LR 5 et je n’ai jamais pu installer la version définitive avec ce n° de série.Ce n° de série n'est pas valide. La durée version d’essai est terminée et donc je dois retourner à LR 4 pour continuer à travailler ? Pourquoi cela ne fonctionne pas?

    Bonjour.
    J'ai bien compris votre réponse qu'il fallait utiliser un nouveau n° de série. J'ai bien téléchargé LR5 le 18 mars 2014, j'ai bien reçu une facture
    n° IEE2014000174985 mais je n'ai pas de trace d'un nouveau n° de série. Il n'est pas sur la facture, ni dans le logiciel?

  • Abap issues when upgrading from 4.7 to ecc6.0

    hello All,
    I am posting this question with intention of general issues we face that are abap related when upgrade from 4.7 to ECC6.0,
    do the programs ahve to be adjusted, if sumone cud also throw some light on what is unicode and wat role does it play in the upgrade,
    some specific examples wud be appreciated
    thanks,
    RS

    hi,
    Go through this
    Unicode is an international standard that assigns characters from virtually every
    language and script a unique Unicode Scalar Value, which is a number written in
    hexadecimal notation.
         Character     Unicode Scalar Value     Unicode Character Name
         A      U+0041          LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A
         Ä     U+00C4          LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS
         α     U+03B1          GREEK SMALL LATTER ALPHA
    Implementing the Unicode standard enables a single software product or a single
    web site to be accessed across multiple platforms, languages, and countries without
    the need for re-engineering. It allows data to be transferred across many different
    SAP and non-SAP systems without corruption. To meet these requirements, the SAP
    Unicode team continues to promote Unicode-enabled SAP systems, aid their
    installation, and provide tools and full technical support for the smooth
    conversion of existing SAP non-Unicode systems to Unicode.

  • It´s possible to upgrade from the latest mavericks beta to the final version?

    Hi all. I´m thinking in becoming a developper because  I want to install mavericks beta on my macbook pro (I can´t wait for the battery and ram upgrades). But i have a question before that. It´s posible to upgrade from the latest mavericks beta to the final version? , or Ihave to restore to mavericks final version and then use a time machine Backup?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sorry for english

    No one who knows can say, because Mavericks is not released yet.
    To get a Free copy that can be updated, you need to have a paid developer membership, at a minimum cost of at least US$100/ annually. (This may also include one Developer Tech Support incident and other benefits.)
    Apple has lowered the cost of new versions of Mac OS X to about US$20. If Mavericks is released at about that price, buying a legitimate copy instead of depending on a quirky developer version that cannot be updated should not be a difficult decision.

  • Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Mav does not support Microsoft word or excel.  What's up with that?

    Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Microsoft Word or Excel will not run on OS X Mavericks.  What's up with that?  Should I click accept or ok?
    I assume this is the latest Mav OS...so the version would be 10.9.2?  It was suppose to be a free download from Apple.

    If you do not want to spend a lot of money on buying the latest Office you can get most or all of what you need from LibreOffice which is free. http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/
