Trouble during partition setting up bootcamp
as I was setting bootcamp, while building a 10 GB partition for windows, there was some sort of problem that required reeboot. After rebooting, I ended up with one partition only but 10 GB are missing. any ideas?
thanks in advance
thanks, tried that, in order to rapair I have to veify and is failing o do so:"Filesystem verify or repair failed"

Windows 8 installation gets stuck during create partition step in bootcamp. Any suggestions?
windows 8 installation gets stuck during create partition step in bootcamp. I tried to restart the bootcamp with same results. I have given it more than 6 hrs for last 3 times but I was able to go past this step previously where I got stuck during registering windows8.
Hi,
According to your description, it seems that your all Windows 8.1 computers connect to network via normal wireless network.
Did you have wireless router for them?
Please delete this adhoc, then check if these computer could connect to network.
If no, follow below guide to create and connect to adhoc :

"No bootable device --- insert boot disk and press any key" after setting up Bootcamp
Hi guys,
I am trying to install Windows 7 via Bootcamp but after setting up Bootcamp and restarting the computer I get the error message "No bootable device --- insert boot disk and press any key".
I use an iMac with a DIY Fusion Drive consisting of a 120 GB SSD and a 1 TB HDD.
Since Bootcamp can only be installed on the HDD I believe disk1 is the interesting one. Here is the output of sudo gpt -r -vv show disk1:

I have gdisk installed and am ready to mess around. Any help would be greatly appreciated!So, when I started my iMac yesterday morning it couldn't boot into OS X anymore either. Several hours of restoring later I am back to square one. I tried installing Windows 7 via Bootcamp again but got the same error message. This time I noticed though that Bootcamp asked me to remove the bootable option from the USB drive with the support drivers in order to install from DVD. Does that ring any bells? I am building another USB drive right now, hoping it would ask me again but this I will decline and try to boot from it.
When you restored, was a Time Machine restore used? TM does not backup Bootcamp and does an erase of the partition. It may also erase the entire disk (including the Fusion drive) if the specific backup of the volume layout of the disks indicates a pre-Bootcamp layout.
My MacBook Pro is a 2009 model and also once had a built-in optical drive. I have no idea why it would work on there but not on the iMac.
You also wrote
When I plug the external DVD drive in, the boot manager recognizes a "Windows" disc and an "EFI Boot" disc. If I select the "Windows" disc I get a black screen with a blinking dash.
The blinking dash indicates that it is working, but does not have the requisite drivers to enable the GPU/Mouse/Keyboard on the media being used.
In the MBP case, did you have two drives installed in the MBP, a Fusion configuration, and then were able to successfully install Bootcamp?
For example on a Mac mini I have a DIY Fusion drive, but the sequence was done differently. Bootcamp was installed using a USB stick+Windows 7 ISO.
1. The two disks are not in a CoreStorage set up initially.
2. The second disk is partitioned (64Gb) and a Bootcamp W7 install completed via USB (this is different HW as compared to IMac, because it has no Optical drive).
3. After the HDD is partitioned, the first partition and the SSD are then used to create a CoreStorage volume.
4. Here is the working version and disk layout. (I plan to erase both disks, put W7 on a partition on the SSD, and make the non-Bootcamp+entire HDD in a CoreStorage volume).

Partition corrupted after Bootcamp Installation aborted
Hello, I started a Bootcamp installation on my OSX Lion Mac Pro. Once I realized that I could only use Windows 7, I had to hold off on the installation until I located my Windows 7 disk. I had set the Bootcamp partition size to 100 GB on a 500 GB Drive. Due to threatning weather, I shutdown the computer.
Now the OSX Lion does not boot! I have been reading much information on this topic to see about fixing the problem. I talked to Apple Support and so far it is still not working. I was able to boot using the recovery partition "Disk Utility -> First Aid -> Repair Disk". When I ran Repair Disk there were some errors reported and repaired, then OSX still not booting. I installed Lion on another drive using recovery and that works OK. I was hoping to install Lion on the original drive and still not disturb my data files like music, photos, etc. The volume with my data is greyed out and does not mount. I think the partition is corrupted.
Can someone please help me to repair this issue?
Thanks,
DavidApple Hardware test result:

Everything appears to be normal. I have no idea why this happens on this machine. My only other thought is that this machine was upgraded from 10.9. My last option is to wipe the machine, install 10.10 from scratch, then reinstall everything again. I dread this last option - it is usually the sign of a desperate individual (which I am). -
I am about to buy a 13" MacBook Pro with 256 GB SSD. I want a Windows partition set up. What size should it be, and can I load Win XP Pro or does it need to be Win 7 or 8?
You can use XP but it has to be in a Virtual Machine and OS X as the host instead of as a dual boot system with XP in its own partition. That is how I run Windows on my Mac, in a Virtual Machine.
Take a look at VritualBox from Oracle. It's free and works very well. -
Has anyone figured a way to use the magic trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?
Yes. After Windows/Bootcamp discovers your bluetooth device (Magic Trackpad or Mouse, be sure to make it discoverable), right click, with your wired mouse, of course, on the icon and select Properties.
Then check the mouse drivers box and your device should work. (I located this solution on another thread)
It works for both the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad.
Must admit, the solution was not intuitive within the Windows environment. But we all must remember. It IS Windows, after all.
Another thing. Keep in mind that the gestures on these devices that work just dandy in OSX do not carry over into Windows.
It's Windows. -
Can't save "Play music during slideshow" setting in iPhoto 6
Hi,
I just bought and installed iPhoto 6 today as an upgrade to iPhoto 4. I've discovered that I'm unable to save the "Play music during slideshow" setting in the dialog which appears when I click the "Play" button from the thumbnail screen to play a slideshow. If I uncheck this checkbox and then click on the "Save Settings" button, the next time I play a slideshow, the music starts up again. The most particularly annoying thing about this problem is that I'm trying to create a slideshow that plays no music, and I have to continually uncheck the "Play music during slideshow" checkbox each time I play the slideshow. Has anyone else run into this problem, and is there a solution or workaround for it?
Thanks,
KenHi,
I think I've figured out what's going on here, but I don't know how to fix it. While I was playing around with the items in the "Play" dialog that appears when you initiate a slideshow, I discovered that if I uncheck the "Play music during slideshow" and then change the selection in the tree of folders underneath the checkbox, that the checkbox becomes selected. This would normally be the considerate thing to do, since if the user were making a selection in that tree, it would be rather "rude" in a software sense to not check the checkbox automatically. Unfortunately, in this case, the logic doesn't seem to be looking at the Preferences flag which (correctly, I think) is remembering that I don't want music to be played. So what I think is happening is when this dialog is first instantiated, the checkbox setting is remembered correctly. However, what happens next is that the saved selection in the folder tree is then restored, which then triggers the "a tree selection was just made, so let's check the checkbox" event. This is why if you've saved the "don't play music" setting, the checkbox is initially cleared, and then when the tree selection is set, the checkbox becomes checked. If I save the settings with the checkbox checked, the checkbox is set from the instant the dialog appears. So assuming that this is what's happening, is it possible to fix this by editing the NIB file using the Developer Tools? Or is this logic embedded in the compiled code?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Lock tables during partition exchange
Hi,
I want to do the following thing:
there are 9 partitioned tables (set A) and 9 non partitioned (set B).
There is a continuous dataflow into set A.And there is also a dependency between the nine flows within each transaction into set A (there is no dependency between different transactions.).
What I want is to exchange the nine partitions of set A with set B. This because I want to have a performance boost instead of copying the data from A into B.
I need to lock the tables of set A to make sure there is NO insertion of data into one of the tables of set A to avoid loss of dependency and thus loss of data.
I tried several things: lock tables, run autonomous transaction in which the exchange takes place, commit and unlock. But no success.
Who can help me to solve my problem: to lock all nine tables of set A and make sure the dependency remains consistent and no data gets lost?
Thanks.
jurgenWhy you are bothering about LOCKing the table,
you can goahead and do the exchange the table,
since, its ongoing activity, exchanged partition will be there till you merge, drop it.
if you found some more rows after exchange, then you can insert same into that table, or make another table.
Thanks -
From personal experience you probably have some type of circularreferencing between objects during the Init() method processing. I've
run across this when the Init() method of a containing object
instantiates the contained objects and the contained objects have a
reference to the containing object. These classes begin a tight circle
of instantiating each other's objects until memory is exhausted.
Offhand I can't remember which, but running from the running man or the
debugger will eventually give you the out of memory message along with
responsible class.

I need a way to see what Forte is doing when it is returning my

Force quitting partition and restarting bootcamp assistanse
I tried to delete my win 7 partition but the bootcamp froze and I had to force quit the process. Now I can not find the win 7 partition (60GB) in bootcamp, but the diskspace is still used. How can I solve this?
Hey, I just had this problem recently as well with Win 8. I'm pretty sure (cause it seems I got my memory back) that if you redo the process and make another partition (it doesn't have to be big, just enough to start windows), you can then uninstall that one using bootcamp assistant it will "find" the diskspace. That's what I tried and it seemed to have worked.
-
Very basic question but I can't seem to find an answer to this. I want to decrease the size of the partition for Bootcamp. How can I do that? As well, If I want to delete Windows as well as Bootcamp, how can I do that also? Thanks for any help I can get.
Hi and welcome to Discussions,
For changing the partition size of a BootCamp Windows partition CamTune from Paragon http://www.paragon-software.com/home/camptune/ would be my choice.
The completely remove the WIndows partition use the BootCamp Assistant again and choose "revert back to single OSX Volume".
Read the BootCamp Install Guide from inside the BootCamp Assistant or to be found here http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

It displays "an error has occured during partition"
when i try to use boot camp assistant to partition the disk....it shows a message after some time that "an error has occured during partition"
Hi Cam-Fox22,
I have had this problem and tried everything suggested without success until last night. I took the plunge and did a Factory reset which cured the problem. Of course you must do a back up to iTunes first. I connected the iPad to my PC via a cable and then loaded iTunes. Log in to the account associated with your iPad and then carry out a backup of your iPad including apps and purchases. Then hit reset option near the top of the page and hit again when asked if sure. It takes a while to download the software but eventually it wiped the iPad and loaded it with fresh software. Keep your iPad connected and then restore from back-up when given that option. When it is all finished you will have your iPad back just as it was before you started but with iMessage and Facetime both working again.
Good Luck John -
I tried to partition him using bootcamp but didn't have mac os cd neither mac instalation. the problem i am dealing now its that i cant go back to OS partition since its not appeared when i restart c and no win drivers to have a properly running system. I've thought as an option to re-download boot-camp and run the instalation from windows partition and see if i can repair it that way, didnt try yet thought just in case anyone has a better prposition or dealed with the same problem
Take it to your local Apple Store or AASP, it's covered by a 1 year hardware warranty. If you have AppleCare then give them a call but I'm pretty sure they will advise the same. If you have not purchased AppleCare yet please do, this will extend the warranty to 3 years however it MUST be purchased within the first year of ownership. Let it go 366 days and you are out of luck. AppleCare will also include telephone support too.
Good luck.
