I made new partition on my macbook pro, when I open parallels to use windows I can see only the main drive of macbook pro but I can not see the new partition, I would like to know, how can I make the parallels windows see the new partition ?

Read your Parallels documentation. It's all about configuring the Preferences.

  • Couldn't create a new partition with a windows 7 installation

    Hi
    I have a b570 laptop. It was originally windows 7 home premium and I wanted to install windows 7 ultimate from scratch (didn't want to upgrade it) with new partitions, so I have deleted the original system partition and tried to create a new partition but to my surprise I couldn't create a new one. I tried to use the onekey recovery but it keeps asking me for the original partition, which I don't have. Please help me if you know how I could solve this problem. Thank you in advance.

    With the windows 7 installation disk...I select the unallocated space shown on the screen -> click on the new button on the bottom -> set the size of the new partition to be created -> and click create.

  • Adobe creative cloud set up to install on a mac with parallels windows 8

    Unfortunately it is not possible to install the program it always displays an error message. how can you loess the problem?
    error message: This application can not be run from a network drive-. copy it to a local folder and strarten it again.

    I have just the regular version, not Professional.
    I mean "les integrated", in the sense that you really run Fusion "in a window". The more "integrated" approach means that Windows applications run as if they were for the Mac, and you do not see the Windows interface at all. I personnaly think tjat is too confusing. There is nothing wrong with it, just a bit more confusing. i like having it clear that Windows is in a seperate Window.

    So that I could install Adobe CC on Windows 7? Please advise.
    What do you mean ny "less integrated"? Is this must to run Adobe CC in VMWare on Mac?
    Please advise.

  • How can I create a new partition to install Windows 7 by not using Bootcamp

    How can I create a new partition to install Windows 7 by not using Bootcamp?

    If you want to dualboot you have to use boot camp i think. I think you have already a full disc and cannot make another partition I'm I right?
    Your question seems a bit blurry so I'm giving you a general tip here.
    If you want to just try the beta you can always use Sun's "Virtualbox".

  • Is it possible to have a phone line connected to a Mac Mini (OS X10.8.2) so you can use your computer with Parallels (Windows xp) to dial into a modem to download data being collected and stored at the remote location?

    Is it possible to have a phone line connected to a Mac Mini (OS X10.8.2) so you can use your computer with Parallels (Windows xp) to dial into a modem to download data being collected and stored at the remote location?

    Hi, do you mean a real Dial-up Modem as in the old days?
    As I recall, the Apple USB Modem won't work in 64 bit OSes, but there are others that will, I think this is one of them...

    Or is the Modem on the other end Cable/DSL/FiberOptic?

  • Moving boot camp to new machine with Parallels 10 or WinClone?

    i seem to have a ton of document here but have not been able to figure a way out of my dilemma.
    i have a 2006 mac pro that had two boot camp installs with one of windows 7 and one of XP. each of these are still intact on my hard drives in this computer. however, i can not see this computer on my display as there appears to be some issue with the converter that i am using for my cinema display mini display port (to get it to DVI display port on the 2006) so i cannot really DO anything with these installations other than see them when i put the disk in my new 2012.
    Parallels 10 appears to have a new "boot camp" mode and i am trying to figure out if there is a way to get the boot camp installs into my 2012 as "virtual boot camp" installations. i just put one of the 2006 disks into the 2012 machine and tried this and Parallels seems to have accepted this but i am not sure if i somehow need to leave the physical boot camp install in this bay 4 or if i can just pull the disk and now i have a "virtual boot camp" install of windows 7.
    ALSO, i DO have WinClone backups of both of these boot camp installations on the new machine but i believe i am supposed to run CHKDSK and Sysprep on the actual boot camp installs before trying to migrate them over to the new machine and since i cannot see anything in the old machine i can't try this. actually, i did try it back when i could see the 2006 but there was some error with the Sysprep and the thread proposing solutions was like 26 pages long.
    anyway, anyone done this and have any suggestions?
    THANKS

    A. when you say you can boot from corresponding installation media - you are talking about my Windows 7 and Windows XP install disks?
    When you installed XP or W7, you would have used either an Install DVD or a USB, or both. This is what you would need. You can recreate the USB using Bootcamp Assistant, if necessary. The only caveat would be if you subsequently upgraded to later Service Packs, and the installer was built earlier than that.
    B. when you say "if your windows is already bootable" you are saying that i could put the disk in the new machine, set preferences to BOOT from the Boot Camp installation on the other disk and run the Safe Mode on this boot camp install and then manually remove drivers? also presumably i can compare the 2006 machine to the 2012 machine and see which drivers i don't have to remove? also, i am guessing here that i can try either of these (boot from media or boot into safe mode in the boot camp) despite the fact that yosemite does not support XP boot camp?
    It is possible that Windows may not boot at all, due to hardware changes and driver differences. Safe Mode is a minimal driver load boot. It should be bootable. If you end with a completely un-bootable system after you move disks, then Windows Startup Repair may be necessary first. You may also need to run chkdsk. I would also recommend uninstalling any third-party NTFS software. Once Windows is fully installed, there is no interaction with Yosemite, and a minimal interaction with firmware and Apple Bootmanager which recognizes a NTFS system.
    C. can you help me with the terminology here? you ask if any of my "W7/WXP" disks have a version of OS X co-resident". at one point i had what i understood to be JUST an XP install on my 2006 machine on a hard drive which i still have. i don't know if this was installed "under" some OS but as far as i know i /just/ had a boot camp installation of XP on this disk. is this possible? if so, what do i call it? ALSO, i /now/ have basically two disks with one containing a PARTITION of Snow Leopord or Mountain Lion and a PARTITION of Windows XP Boot Camp. then the /second/ disk contains a CLONE of the OS X install and a PARTITION of Windows 7 Boot Camp. Do you know what i call these?! are either of them what you consider "co-resident"? i guess i don't exactly understand the types of boot camps i can have (ignoring virtual machines).
    If the disk was formatted as an MBR disk and was fully dedicated to Windows, it will not have OS X. In some cases, a single physical disk can be partitioned to host both OSes. If the OS X part was on a separate physical disk, this is what is usually is done on a MacPro with multiple disks.
    D. can i /PLEASE/ ask you to help me understand the types of virtual machines i can create on the 2012 with Parallels 10? right now i just hooked up a Windows 7 virtual machine from Parallels 7. so this is a "true virtual machine". but i can somehow also now create a "boot camp virtual machine" where i can EITHER boot into the boot camp or into the virtual machine? i mean, i guess what we are discussing is a way to CLEAN the Windows 7 BOOT CAMP INSTALLATION on my 2006 by putting the hard drive into the 2012 and to then - well i guess i then create a WinClone of the Boot Camp install and i run the WinClone MIGRATION procedure to get this boot camp on the 2012? /then/ i run parallels and hook up this Boot Camp install in the new machine?
    Usually, BC installations can be imported as virtual machines. You can also install a VM using a virtual disk, which, to OS X, appears like a set of system files. You can as a test import the 2006 disk clone as a VM and test. The VM engines impose their own BIOS engine and can have  their own drivers in such a VM. For example, they will emulate SCSI to access the underlying virtual or physical disk. They may also provide their own file system drivers. For example, VMware Fusion can provide HGFS to share files between OS X and Windows. Your approach should work, but I have never tested Winclone with the VM layer in the middle. You should ask Wincloen support if they support VM as an in-between layer or not. I do not think so.
    E. can you remind me why i can't get a XP Boot Camp on the 2012 machine? was this due to the 2012 mac pro or was it yosemite or both i guess? i mean, for XP i am presumably going to run the TRANSFER procedure on the XP install /after/ putting the hard drive with XP boot camp from the 2006 into my 2012 and then i am going to run this VIRTUAL MACHINE FROM BOOT CAMP operation (link below)? if so, we are saying i can run this from the 2012 and then can i remove the XP Boot Camp drive from the 2012 and still have the virtual machine i guess? in this case i SHOULD ALSO run the XP through the procedure you explain? so in this case i will only have a virtualized XP Boot Camp install and with Windows 7 i will have both the BOOT CAMP install (which i presumably migrated to my OS X hard drive!) and i will be able to virtually boot to this boot camp install using Parallels 10?
    Apple deprecated XP support as they moved to BC version 5.x. A new XP installation is not possible, but an existing XP installation will continue to work across OS X version upgrades. This is a 'physical' machine from 2006 MP. Once you install BC drivers on the XP installation to work with 2012, you will need to reverse the migration procedure (uninstall drivers for 2012MP, install 2006 MP drivers). It is a very unusual direction to want to go back to 2006 MP, but it is still a method if the 2012 MP hardware failed, and you wanted to go back to a working 2006 MP. You should check if Parallels 10 supports XP.
    F. i guess if i want to make sure to retain a true boot camp install of the Windows XP install i have to repair the 2006 machine is that right?
    http://kb.parallels.com/en/113658
    Not necessarily. If you can migrate (simulating a SysPrep) to the 2012 MP machine, you do not need to resurrect the 2006 MP.

  • I can't partition with burned Windows 7 iso

    Hi all,
    I am lost: I bought Windows 7 online. Downloaded it and burned the iso file to a DVD. Then I went to the Boot Camp Assistant and downloaded the Windows support stuff. Took ages and worked after 3 trials. Then I selected the size (50GB), inserted the DVD and clicked install. But the DVD is not recognized. It tells me "The installer disc could not be found. Insert your Windows installer disc and wait a few seconds for the disc to be recognized." So I burned another disk thinking that burning error. Nope. So saved on USB stick and downloaded rEFIt (as this seems to be a good solution too). Well that worked, I could boot with Windows via the USB stick and install until... I needed to select the partition.... BUT, if I cannot partition without a DVD and I cannot boot via USB because I have no partition.... then what should I do?? Can I partition without installing Windows? I tried Disk Utility, but to no avail. Sigh. I am tired, this takes for ages, I can't figure it out and I paid EUR200 for this darned Windows download. Can anyone help me out?
    Thanks to whoever can assist me here...
    Chris

    Hi YMcD,
    When I try to partition via the Disk Utility, I get this message:
    "Partition failed with the error: Couldn’t modify partition map because file system verification failed."
    And I get this error whether I do it in FAT or MAC OS.

  • After creating new partition with iPartition, on a nonbootdrive, I can no longer see any files stored on that drive.

    I have a Hitachi disk that I use for media (photos, videos, etc..)
    After using Ipartition to create a new partition on this disk, none of the files are visible any more.
    The disk was never partiton before so this was the first partition created.
    When I launch iPartition again, I notice that I now have a Microsoft FAT or NTFS type partion and a HFS partiton however there is no data at all under Finder.
    What should I do to recover my files ?

    you don't need 3rd party to shrink and create a 2nd partition.
    One partition is still partition, and there are others like Lion Recovery, GUID, EFI on there.
    Repair the drive and make sure iPartition does what you want and current. Or just use DU instead.
    And backup.

  • Extending windows partition (with EOM Windows)

    Okay, so we just used Bootcamp and installed Windows 8 on a new mac.  I wasn't watching as my girlfriend Mary went through Bootcamp setup, and wanted to let her do it on her own and just help if needed...so it is now set to only 20 GB.  We haven't even installed a single program on the Windows partition, just tried to put on the Windows support software that's part of Bootcamp, and it already ran out of space. I used disk utility on Mac OSX to reduce the size of the mac partition, but windows doesn't seem capable of expanding to fill the empty space.
    I've been looking up info on how to resize it, and the standard suggestion is to use WinClone to clone the windows side, re-partition, and restore from clone.  I'm comfortable enough with computers to do this, I think, but I'm concerned with how the EOM ("system builder") version of Windows 8 will respond to it.  Will it think I'm trying to install on a new computer, and not let me activate?  Will I even have to activate, or will it hold on to the activation from before the cloning?
    It would also be relatively simple to uninstall the whole thing and reinstall, since there's absolutely NOTHING on the windows side yet except the operating system...but again I'm worried that my EOM license will complain, as it might think I'm trying to put it on a new computer (which is expressly not allowed with this version -- it's supposed to go on one computer and stay there.)
    I've also seen suggestions of programs to use for resizing partitions.  GParted sounded promising, but it hasn't been working for me.  I load it, and by the time it asks me what keymap to use it stops responding to the keyboard or mouse.  I could try troubleshooting it further, but it has been frustrating so far.  That was the only free program I saw.  There are a few other listed options for $20-50, which I'll pay if I absolutely need to, but this really doesn't seem like it should be so complicated.  There's a bunch of empty space not assigned to any partition, and I want an existing partition to fill it.
    If it matters, this is on a MacBook Pro, the version they're still selling but without the Retina display, and we're on the newest version of Mac OSX.  13 inches, baseline except for doubling the RAM.  The computer was purchased less than a week ago.

  • How-To Delete Boot Camp Partition with Parallels Configure to Access It

    Hi Everyone,
    I would like to delete my boot camp partition from my MB to reclaim some space due to the increasing storage demand from iTunes library? (I need to find out what can I do when the library is getting larger than my HD too, but that's another topic...)
    I also have Parellels Desktop configure to access the boot camp partition instead of creating its own virtual hard drive. I'd like to know if there's any problem with my parallels after I delete the boot camp hard drive? Will I have to reinstall my Windows XP OS again after deleting the partition?
    Thank you,
    Nacintosh520

    Hi Eric
    Are you saying that I have to reinstall my Windows XP OS all over again, with the patch and everything after deleting the BC partition? Is there a way to create a virtual hard drive from the BC partition of what I have? It's such a time-consuming process that I have to tweak the OS to the way I'd like it.
    I wonder what solution will Apple offer when they offer more and more content, and space for each computer is limited. I did some research on this issue and it turns out that the solution is the set the option in iTunes to "Manually manage my music files" in the Preferences panel. I don't want to do this because if I set this option, my files won't be organized any more, and it's gonna be all over the places. But I guess I have to do this until Apple offer an option such as "Move my Podcasts file to _ external hard drive" to keep everything stay organized.
    Thank you,

  • New IMAC w/Parallels Windows

    Unable to load windows programs ? When going to "My Computer" in windows mode, the CD Drive does not appear. There is shown a 31/2
    floppy drive, which of course, in not on an IMAC ? From the internet while
    speaking to a Macaphee representative, I was able to download and install

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    You need to go back to your Parallels installation instructions. After installing Windows in the Parallels virtual machine you need to install Parallels Tools, or something of a similar name, which installs the Parallels drivers in Windows that allow it to access the iMac hardware.
    A better place to post your Parallels questions is in the Parallels Desktop for Mac forum, since it isn't Apple software.

  • Disk Utility can't create a new partition

    Hello,
    I'm trying to create a new partition to install Windows 7 on, but I am unable to do so.
    At first I tried to do this with Boot Camp Assistant, but it didn't work.
    Then I tried to create a FAT partition with Disk Utility, which didn't work either.
    So I verified and repaired the disk, tried to create the partition again, yet it still didn't work.
    I verified and repaired the disk and tried to create the partition while running the OS, in Safe Mode and from the Mac OSX Install DVD.
    Neither of them worked.
    I noticed while running the OS, the info of the HD said the capacity is 749.81 GB, while checking that from the Mac OSX Install DVD it only says about 700 GB (I mentioned 698.6 GB).
    Strange..
    It might also be important to mention that I recently (2 days ago) I installed a new HD: Western Digital Scorpio Black 750 GB, and today I swapped my 2x 2GB RAM for 2x 4GB RAM (Samsung).
    On my previous HD, the Fujitsu 250GB, this proces was no problem at all. I installed W7 on that drive just a week ago.
    I made a clone of the Fujitsu HD and "back-upped" it to my new WD HD. The W7 partition on the Fujitsu HD was 50GB, which is the difference in capacity mentioned above. I'm not sure if there's a link here..
    I've got a MacBook Pro from mid 2009.
    I'm not sure what to do next... I'm stuck!
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Good thing to mention that, I forgot to do that.
    Unfortunately it did not help.. The screen to remove the existing Boot Camp partition does not pop up, it just tries to create the new Boot Camp partition.
    The partition I'm trying to create it 150GB. The 50GB mentioned above was on the stock Fujitsu 250GB disk.
    Edit:
    I'm actually trying to avoid using Boot Camp Assistant.. I became to dislike the utility due to problems creating a partition on my previous HD.
    I would like to create a partition using Disk Utility and then install Windows 7 by selecting that DVD to boot from.
    Thank you for the tip though, I'll post it there as well!

  • Create new partition VS. Use Toshiba recovery disk

    Hi
    I've bought a new Toshiba Satellite S50-A-00G. I want to create a new partition (D for my personal documents.
    Could I create a new partition (with Windows 8 built-in utilities) and use Toshiba restore disk for reformat ONLY the system partition (C?
    Thanks

    Hi skid! I'm not sure what your'e wanting to do. I can tell you what I do. I also have a 1TB external drive. I have a program called Macrium Reflect. It is a great program and there is a free version. Once a month I create a image of my drive. It will create a image of all three of my partitions. If I have some major problems. I restore that image and I'm back just like the day I created the image. I never use the Toshiba recovery media, because I don't want to start over from day one.
    I'm sure you will get better replies during the week.
