Why cant my Windows 8.1 MacBook Pro read the os x partition?

I have the Early 2011 MacBook Pro running Windows 8.1 on a 2nd partition and I installed the latest bootcamp drivers on to it and I can not read the OS X partition from windows. I know you used to be able to do it i am just wondering why its not working now. I have looked to resolve the issue but couldent find an answer.

Check whether applehfs.sys has been installed in Windows.

  • Why cant i upgrade my 17in macbook pro (s/w 10.6.8)to mavericks

    why cant i upgrade my 17in macbook pro (s/w 10.6.8)to mavericks?  I do not know what month it was built.  I bought it as a refurbished by Apple a few months ago.

    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.      
    Application Compatibility
    Applications Compatibility (2)
    Do a backup before installing.
    Your iMovie and iPhoto data should be good, but you will have to upgrade the applications.
    If you decide the upgrade isn't worth it, you can share Mail, Calendars, and Contacts running Snow Leopard. Based on my experience, I don’t recommend syncing Contacts - created a lot of problems with duplicates. If you have 2 step verification enabled on your Apple ID, you will need to generate an application specific password for Mail, iCal, and Address Book. Apple ID - Manage
    Snow Leopard iCloud - Address and iCal
    Snow Leopard iCloud –  iCal
    Snow Leopard iCloud - Configuring Mail with Mac OS X v10.6 or iOS 4

  • I want to run Quicken through Windows on my macbook pro, whats the best way to do this?

    I want to run Quicken 2012 through Windows on my macbook pro, whats the best way to do this?
    I have been looking at Parallels or VMware in order to use Windows but then I will also need to get a Windows license. Just looking for the most inexpensive way possible as this will probably be the only Windows app I run.
    Also looking at this CrossOver software which says you dont need Windows license. Anyone used this before? had success?

    CrossOver's website has a list of software it has certified as working or working with known issues - Quicken 2012 has a bronze rating meaning it runs but with enough issues that it isn't recommended. In other words, "Run away!"
    Get a copy of Windows 7 OEM from Amazon or New Egg and give it a try with VirtualBox (an open source virtualization program). If VirtualBox doesn't cut it you can always buy VMWare or Parallels.

  • Cant install Windows 7 on MacBook Pro running snow leopard.

    I just got a shiny new Macbook Pro and i tried to install Windows 7. I partitioned the drive using Boot Camp assistant and proceeded to install Windows 7. Windows 7 Installation started and then it said it cant find device drivers for CD/DVD drives. Since my Windows 7 disk was stuck inside the drive at this point with no way to eject it, i took the Leopard installation disk and connected it through a external USB DVD drive. Then was able to browse the DVD and look at the Bootcamp drivers. But pointing the windows installer to all the directories still came up with "No device drivers found". Though, my leopard installation disc has a folder called x64 drivers etc... Any suggestions ?
    Thanks.

    1) BootCamp .rtf at root of Leopard disk:
    Double-click setup.exe, in the root level of this disc, to install the following:
    • Boot Camp drivers, which allow you to use your Mac-specific hardware with Windows, including your Apple keyboard, mouse, trackpad, and built-in iSight camera. For more information on Boot Camp, see <http://www.apple.com/bootcamp>.
    • Remote Install Mac OS X, which allows MacBook Air users on your local network to install Mac OS X using a Mac OS X installation disc in your computer's optical drive. For more information, refer to the MacBook Air User's Guide.
    • DVD or CD Sharing, which allows MacBook Air users on your local network to use your computer's optical drive. For more information, refer to the MacBook Air User's Guide.
    If you can't find the MacBook Air User's Guide, download it from <http://www.support.apple.com/manuals>.
    For more information on installing Boot Camp, restart your Mac in Mac OS X, open Boot Camp Assistant (in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder), and click Print Installation & Setup Guide. 
    2) You can eject without having right click by clicking desktop Computer icon which opens Windows explorer and a view of drives C:, E;(likely your cd/dvd.) if you highlight this with mouse cursor, you can Eject from column above drive icon.
    Using Windows Explorer, In the Boot Camp Folder on the Leopard disk is Setup.exe Running this should install Bcamp & drivers for you.
    For me autorun at leopard disk insert has 3 icons to select from; for boot camp installation is third or one on the bottom. Maybe you don't see it due to screen resolution setting.

  • Why won't my Macbook Pro read the SSD drive when I install it?

    When I installed my new Kingston SSD drive and tried to re install Mac OS Snow Leopard from the disk,  it did not read or see the SSD drive.  I had to re install the old HD and continue using that.  Any ideas?
    I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch Model mid 2009 running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1 (11B26)
    It is a Kingston 64gb SSDnow SNVP325-S2/64GB

    I have similar situation but (see also my other post) am not able to boot up from Snow Leopard installer disk (keep getting kernel panic, even on other laptops trying to boot on same Snow Leopard installer disk).
    Any ideas on how to get the SSD formatted or how to avoid kernel panic with my Snow Leopard installer ?

  • Windows XP on MacBook Pro - Can't connect to wireless after bootcamp, why?

    1)I just bought MacBook Pro, just did a boot camp with windows xp. With Windows xp installed, it can't detect wireless network. What went wrong?
    2)When setting the boot camp, do i need to have the boot camp driver? Why?
    3)Can Windows xp on Macbook pro use the same built-in modem, or do i need to get a modem/ adaptor for windows on mac, so the wireless (on window xp on mac) would be able to work.

    Did you install Apple's bootcamp drivers after you installed Windows? You should be able to accomplish that by booting into Windows and then inserting the installation disc that came with your MacBook Pro. Without Apple's drivers, Windows may not know how to use the wireless circuitry on your Mac.
    3) Can Windows xp on Macbook pro use the same built-in modem, or do i need to get a modem/ adaptor for windows on mac, so the wireless (on window xp on mac) would be able to work.
    With the proper drivers Windows should be able to use the wireless equipment that came with your Mac.

  • Why RAM Preview 2x faster on Macbook Pro vs Desktop PC?

    Hello everyone,
    I RAM Previewed a few seconds of an AE CS6 project on a Desktop PC I recently had custom-built, and was distraught to discover it was twice as slow as previewing the exact clip on my Macbook Pro. The project involves simple 3D camera movements. Why might this be so, and can I tweak my PC settings to get more out of it?? I will greatly appreciate any feedback I can get...I'm still new to the Adobe world, and even newer to computer configuration. Thank you!

  • Need Windows XP Professional/MacBook Pro answers before installing

    I have a Windows XP Professional CD FULL Version that I got right after it was released to retail. It does not have any SATA drivers (got it in 2001), but I was able to integrate (slip in) Service Pack 2 from instructions I saw in another post. The original XP CD has not been in use for a while and needed to know if I use the laptop that has a newer version of Windows on to create the new CD will it work on a MacBook Pro Intel i5 with 10.6.3 (has all current updates) . There are some programs I need to use, but the pc laptop is 29 months old and is about had.
    This is my first Apple anything so I don't know what from the Windows world will work with it or not. Also do I need to get drivers for the hardware I currently have on my apple for the Windows side (example: do I need to find the current audio/video/memory card/ethernet drivers) of the partition.

    I just installed win xp on my mac, for the first time. (dont know much about macs, but i am from a windows background).
    Not sure about creating a new cd, but the steps i took were as follows.
    Go to finder> apps> utilitys> boot camp.
    Then create a windows partition. ( I made mine 10GB as i dont need alot of space).
    Then it asks for your windows CD. ( the origional one you have i am guessing should work fine, youll just have to do more windows updates than a newer disc).
    make sure when going through the windows install, you install it on the "BOOT CAMP" partition, and you must format it, DO NOT leave it intact, as it wont work.
    If you format it as FAT, then you can transfer files from your mac to it but its not necessary.
    But formatting it as NTFS isnt a problem either, you just cant transfer things onto it when your are in OSX.
    after its installed it will need drivers, which is easy they are on your OS X dvd, just put it in and run the boot camp file to install the boot camp drivers and utility.
    one thing i found was that it defaulted to boot to windows after i installed it.
    if you want to boot into os x, then hold in the option button when you switch it on and you can select os x.
    and you can change the default boot partition in system preferences under, the startup option.
    so far i havnt had any windows programs that wouldnt work on my windows install. but ive only had it for about 24 hours!

  • Why did Instagram appear under my MacBook Pro icon while using Airdrop?

    Hi.
    I had my iMac and MacBook Pro both setup to use iCloud to share Safari and Calendar. I was going to transfer a folder using Airdrop from my iMac to my MacBook Pro. In my MacBook Pro's Airdrop window, under the icon, it said others will see Jen's iMac. In my iMac's Airdrop window, under the icon, it said others will see Jen's MacBook Pro. But underneath Jen's MacBook Pro was the word Instagram. I've used Airdrop many times and have never had the word Instagram appear anywhere.
    My only connection with Instagram is I did recently join on my iPad but I don't see how that would allow Instagram to have access to my MacBook Pro.
    I didn't send the file until I could figure out how to remove the word Instagram. It disappeared when I turned iCloud off.
    My question is why was the word Instagram underneath the Jen's MacBook Pro?

    Under what environment are you running Windows? Boot Camp? Parallels Desktop? VMware Fusion?
    If you're using Boot Camp, did you install the Windows drivers that may be on the system disc that came with your Mac?

  • How to install Windows 8 on Macbook pro with retina display ?

    Hi - How to install Windows 8 on Macbook pro with retina display ?
    I am pretty new to the apple world. Tried doing it through bootcamp but did not success.
    I am not interested to install it through Parallels or Fusion. Plz guide.
    Thanks !

    OK, use Windows 8 in Bootcamp. Be aware that there are no Bootcamp drivers for Windows 8 yet. So you may experiance not only delays but display problems, freezing, crashes and other problems.
    Here is the Bootcamp forum. Make sure you read all the posts from people experiencing Windows 8 problems with Bootcamp. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp
