Windows 7 bootcamp issue

I have a MacBook Pro with Windows 7 running on a BootCamp partition.  I only use Windows 7 lightly for military work, and the other day I tried to install a printer and it locked everything up.  Now nothing on Windows 7 works, the mouse, keyboard, etc.  I can't get anything done.  I have 4 years of IT experience as a IT Manager, but I'm new to Macs and Bootcamp, is there a way to restore or fix my Windows partition, or do I have to wipe everything out and reinstall Windows?

Yes I'm an IT manager without a backup.  Like I said the only time I use Windows is for doing military work.  The Army uses software for filling out forms and digitally signing that only works in Windows.  99.999999% of the time I'm on my OSX side.  I have only been in Windows 7 side 3 times since January, and everything is backuped on a thumb drive.

  • Windows Bootcamp Issue

    Okay, so my dad installed windows on bootcamp for my Mac. And I was cool with it at first as it didn't bother me but now everytime I Shut down my Mac and put it back on it logs on windows automatically. How can I change it so it logs onto Mac All the time unless I hold options and choose windows???
    Please find out for me??          

    Boot into OS X, go to System Preferences, Startup Disk, select your OS X partition, reboot, profit.

  • Is it possible to get ReadWrite Mac HFS+ drivers for windows 7 so I can manage my Mac formatted Backups through windows bootcamp?

    Hello!
    I was just curious if there was a driver or something I can install so that I can read and write my mac OSX formatted [HFS+] external drives in Windows 7,
    using the windows file explorer [the equivalent for finder].
    This is essential for me because I need the windows explorer copy/file transfer dialog box with all it's options and functionality.
    Any suggestions relating either to windows bootcamp, or running windows through vmware fusion next to mountain lion [I would much prefer to be able to do this with VMWare Fusion, but either way is absolutely fine.]
    I need this because I need to do HEAPS of file management,  
    and I find finder's file transfer / copy dialog box to be totally inadequate, hopeless and almost useless, [a nightmare in fact] next to the excellent functionality of Windows 7 file transfer dialog.
    This has been my most hated issue with OSX for years now.
    File management is a total nightmare in OSX.
    I may make another post / feature request detailing my hatred of this lack of functionality, because it kills me every time I have to manage and backup large folders filled with lots of files and subfolders.
    Sorry for the end-rant.
    Thanks so much for any help! (:

    Hello Alberto and Woodmeister50,
    thank you for both your answers.
    I have to try and remember to state things I have tried previously or am aware of; my bad!
    Alberto:
    Thanks for your ideas.
    I'm aware of ex-fat format.
    Unfortunately, my external drives are quite full and a reformat or EXFAT partition is out of the question.
    I'm formatted them OSX extended journaled a couple of years back before I was aware of exfat.
    I could buy yet another drive, but I don't really want to do that until SSD's come down in price and expand in size.
    [also, while not a big issue, I hear EXFAT can't handle files bigger than 4gb. Not that I have many such files, so that's not really a big concern].
    So doing my file organization through windows explorer is, to my knowledge, the best option,
    if it is possible. [I hope!]
    This would be a perfectly satisfactory solution for me if I can use Windows Explorer through VMware to manage and organize the files and folder on my HFS+ external drives.
    I'm not sure if paragon HFS+ or Macdrive allow you to use windows explorer to manage files?
    Or only through their own file manager and dialogs?
    A costly gamble if they do not, and if their file/folder transfer dialog also happens to be inadequate.
    Woodmeister :
    Thanks.
    Actually, my problem is both HFS+ / windows compatibility AND that I hate finder
    [the HFS problem being a result of the fact I hate finder]
    I have tried Pathfinder [the demo version though, maybe it has limited functionality],
    and I have found it's file transfer dialog / options / functionality to be very totally lacking as well.
    Others I have tried.
    Mac Explorer.
    MoveAddict doesn't seem to work for me presently, although I hear it might be good.
    Total finder is fantastic for other reasons but does nothing for the copy dialog.
    Um.... there were a bunch of others I tried, but all no good.
    So I guess my question is still the same, with a bit more specific information now
    For a very in-depth review/analysis of the hatred of finder's lack of features in this area,
    there are many threads on many forums, such as can be found if you google for the thread on this forum
    GOOGLE : MacRumors OS X: how to merge folder contents, not replace
    Please ignore the fact that some ex-windows people are just not used to the fact that "replace" in finder means to replace a whole folder, as this is not the issue.
    The lack of functionality is, and there are many pages of mac-loving people complaining about it.

  • Mbpr 15" bootcamp issues

    So basically I keep having issues with bootcamp, yet osx seems to function fine. I have reinstalled windows too many times to count yet keep getting performance issues as well as wifi issues. I had a defective motherboard, had it replaced, yet am still getting issues. I have read that if you have a defective motherboard it can mess up formatting on your harddrive, which may cause issues like this. Is reformatting the solution and how is this even done on an apple notebook?
    I have taken in my computer more several times and they have replaced a few things (resolving other issues) but not fixing this. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have been told this is a windows compatibility issue but I find that hard to believe given the very limited variety of hardware in apple notebooks. Who do I even ask for support in this case, since it seems to involve both apple (bootcamp) and ms products?

    Win 7/64 doesn't work fine on my late 2011 MB Pro. It crashes frerquently. I don't know if this is because of Apple's drivers or whatelse. Surely Thunderbolt is not well supported: if you have a RAID Thunderbolt external HD it woun't be "seen" by Win 7... and I have some partitions in RAID format I woul like to read/write. But this, is another question...
    Cheers

  • Bootcamp issue with network connexion

    Hi,
    I just install windows seven on macbook pro. Windows works fine but i have a network connexion issue. Network card (wifi and ethernet) doesn't work. When I instelled windows, bootcamp download drivers for windows 64bits.
    My questions :
    - How can fix this network connexion ?
    - Where can i download broadcomNetworkAdapter32.exe ? (for connect to internet and install correctly all driver)
    Thanks

    Did you download and then install the Windows support software according to the Boot Camp instructions? You install the Windows support software from within Windows after you install Windows.

  • Bootcamp Issue with headphones

    Hey guys I recently reformmated my Windows Bootcamp Partition, and everything was fine at first until I had an issue with my headphones.
    Sound sounds very muffled and underwater like. Its definitely not the headphones because they work with my ipod and I tried a different headset and those still have that muffled effect. Its not the jack because it works just fine in OSX. I reformatted again and the problem went away, but it just came back a few days later. I tried reinstalling the latest drivers from Bootcamp from the apple website, but alas theres still a problem.
    Does anyone know what to do? Thanks in advance.

  • How do I share Mac music and photo files when in Windows Bootcamp mode?

    I have a new iMac with a terabyte of storage that includes about 30 gigs each of iTunes music and jpg photos. I need to share them to the Windows Bootcamp environment so I can wirelessly stream to them to a DLink DSM 320 media server connected to an AV system located in another room. When in Bootcamp Windows the the 320 can "see" the Windows machine but cannot find any media.
    So the question is, how do I share files between Mac and Windows when in Windows Bootcamp?
    A better solution would be to directly connect the Dlink when in the Mac environment but I have not been able to find software to do that (the Dlink product is for PC only.) If anyone knows of such software that would be great too.

    Windows needs third party software to see files on the MAC OS extended FS. I've heard MacDrive does this.

  • I can't eject ("files in use by another application") Windows/Vista Issue?

    OK... so in the grand scheme of things, this really is NOT the end of the world... but it sure is super-annoying!! This is my first every Apple product (took a while to get on the bandwagon) and I was hoping for more stability and ease of use... I've called AppleCare several times and they can't help me figure this out... according to them it's a Windows/Vista issue (which DOES seem likely). I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium on a Dell Dimension E521.
    Here's how it goes... I plug my iPod in, which opens up iTunes and it syncs fine. I wait until the top of iTunes says "sync complete" and the face of the iPod simply says "Connected". Then I click on the "eject" button next to the iPod listing in iTunes. It pauses for a moment, then I look down and the iPod suddenly has those syncing, circular arrows, moving again and it says "Synchronizing- do not disconnect". And then a few moments later, iTunes gives me a pop-up that says " XXXX ipod cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application"
    So obviously, something else is connecting to the iPod and preventing me from ejecting it using iTunes, but I have not been able to figure out what it is!
    Since it's something on my machine, I have tried the following:
    - shut down AntiVirus (TrendMicro Internet Security 2008)
    - turned off Windows Firewall
    - went through all the programs running in the task bar and turned them off
    - opened up Task Manager and turned EVERYTHING else I could see off
    None of the above have made any difference. The workaround that Apple gave me was to go into Computer and then right click on the listed drive and select "Safely Remove" which usually works (the times it doesn't work, it gives a similar message saying the device was being used by another application and can't be removed, try again later). But 90% of the time it works.
    I use that or the Eject option when I right click on that drive (not sure the difference, they seem to do the same thing). The workaround works, but I'd sure LOVE to get iTunes to be able to eject my iPod!!
    Here's what I've done regarding this iPod and iTunes:
    - reset the iPod
    - restored the iPod
    - uninstalled and re-installed iTunes
    - selected and unselected the various things I'm syncing (currently: Music, TV Shows, Podcasts, Photos) to see if it was one of them causing the issue
    NONE of the above has made any difference (and I've done each about 2-3 times, ZERO exaggeration).
    I've called into AppleCare about half a dozen times now, hoping to get that one brilliant tech that knows more than the others... but no luck yet... so I thought I'd try this forum to see if one of the brilliant posters here can help me sort this out.
    PLEASE- ANY help you can provide (or even just point me in the "right" direction of how to determine this) would be GREATLY appreciated!!
    Thanks so much in advance,
    SC

    I am using windows Vista and having this problem also (not exactly, but iTunes gives pop-up that "files are in use"). Acting a suggestion from another answer in this thread, I clicked on Computer and selected eject...windows did warn me that the device was in use, but also gave me a CONTINUE button, which I clicked and it was ejected...had to go back to iTunes and eject the iPod there also, but it did eject

  • Creative Cloud on Mac OSX and Windows Bootcamp on the same machine.

    Hello,
    I am looking into getting 3DStudio Max which is a Windows only program but will need to flip flop between 3DSM and Photoshop.  I am wondering, can I install my Adobe apps on both Operating Systems so that I can have them on my regular Mac OSX for normal work and in Windows Bootcamp for when I do 3D renderings?  I rather not use a Virtual Machine considering both of those programs are going to take a lot of RAM already.  Adding another program to that mix I feel will just overheat/slow down my machine.
    Thank you for your thoughts and time,
    Sarah

    that's interesting.  it may be a problem, but give it a try.
    just open your bootcamp windows, navigate to https://creative.adobe.com/ and start downloading ps.  a cc desktop app will download to your bootcamp windows and hopefully you ps will work on your bootcamp windows.  i don't see any reason why it would stop working your mac, but that will count as your two installations so you will not be able to install on another computer.

    We have a 10 person office - all either use Acrobat XI or Reader XI.  One person is on Windows 7.  The rest are on Windows 8 (not 8.1).  I say this because I thought it was a Windows 8 issue, but having the same problems on the Windows 7 machine. We are all having problems opening pdf's sent to us from other firms. This has increased in frequency over the past two months. We've checked with the various firms, and their other clients are not having problems. Some pdfs open but with a lot of missing content and strange formatting, others won't open at all.  There are different error messaged depending upon the doc.  Some are regarding the fonts, for example "can't extract the embedded font...."  Others are "insufficient data" errors.  There are more, but for purposes of keeping this short, I won't include them.  Another unrelated issue is that we are having trouble printing excel files to pdf.  The files end up with bad formatting.  I've worked with adobe "chat" support, our IT consultants with no resolution.  I also haven't found any similar "known issue" online  Would very much appreciate any assistance.  Thank you

    The font embedding can be a problem if not done and you are trying to view the PDF and do not have the font on your machine. Acrobat will often try to find a replacement, but it is not always a good choice. Sometimes the "Use Local Fonts" button can be changed in state to resolve some of the viewing issues.
    If you are trying to copy or export info, then it is important that you have the fonts on your system. Otherwise, the message you are getting about embedded fonts would not be showing up.
    As for Excel formatting, be sure that the Adobe PDF printer is selected in the printer screen before you look for the paging and formatting of the file. In most OFFICE programs, if you change the printer the application will reflow the document to best match the printer (called "using printer metrics"). So check before you create the PDF that the layout is correct.

  • Windows 8 Issues

    So, I have purchased 'Windows 8 Pro' and am working to get it stable on my W520.
    Specs:
    - Lenovo W520 4270-CTO
    - i7 2720qm
    - Quadro 2000m
    - 16gb G-Skill DDR3
    - 120gb Intel 320 SSD
    Usage:
    - Systems Engineer using various development suites, virtualization technologies (directed i/o is a must), and other processor/ram intensive activities. I am looking to use Hyper-V and do some fairly heavy infrastructure simulations.
    - Occasional games (usually DOTA, Skyrim, etc.) which run at high FPS with gfx settings near maxed (Starcraft 2 is an exception, which doesn't work at all...  Stupid Blizzard...)
    Windows 8 Issues:
    - Cannot boot off install media with VT-d Virtualization Technology enabled. If I re-enable it post-install, sometimes it crashes, sometimes it doesn't.
    - Blue screens on sleep resume
    - Crashes on various driver installs (random, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't), locks up on boot, then after physical restart, crashes on Automatic Repair before being able to start back up normally.
    - After installing Hyper-V, system crashes, crashes on automatic repair, then is AOK...until it randomly crashes
    What I've Tried:
    - Switching between Integrated/Discrete/Optimus graphics doesn't seem to have made any difference.
    - Disabling VT-d seems to have helped with issues booting, but alas, no big fixes
    - Updated BIOS to 1.38, and 1.39 - both made no difference, still at 1.39.
    - Event log reports kernal power loss and various bugcheck errors but unable to find anything referencing the code provided, nor is there any surefire reported dll or driver which seems to be sticking out.
    - I have attempted 3-4 installs from scratch without resolve.
    Other then these issues, if its booted and doesn't crash, the o/s is quite peppy (faster then w7 by a fair degree) and the UltraNav touchpad works quite well with navigating Metro and various Charms.
    Have a Mini Series 3 dock which works well (although it has its issues i'll post up elsewhere) and switches between docked and normal usage with ease.
    I have since reverted back to Windows 7 until I can find something promising to work with as the lack of support resources is understandably limited at this point.
    I cannot develop for Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8 without upgrading or buying a new system. I've been quite happy with my W520 but this is just frustrating and would rather not move to another mftr if I don't have to.
    My question:
    >>> Has anyone successfully installed and run Windows 8 Pro without issue?
    >>> If so, can you please provide me with what releases/versions of the drivers you are running and what BIOS version you are running.
    Any suggestions or sources would be immensely helpful in my quest to get W8 somewhat usable on this beast.
    Thanks in advance!

    BSOD on resume:
    Happened to a W530 with Crucial m4 mSATA SSD. It turned out that it would happen if the drive is password-protected. After removing the password in BIOS Setup, there's no more BSOD on resume.
    So, thusfar, no BSODs on resume. I still have to install the rest of the drivers but at this point, no BSOD since fresh install early this morning. I only have the single Intel 320 SSD in my SATA bay, no mSata drive as of yet. Additionally, I do not have a HDD password. I use the BIOS password w/ fingerprint authentication though.
    Post-install, Windows had installed whatever drivers it felt were necessary. After that finished, I had installed Lenovo System Update and went through its update procedure. I elected to install all but:
    - ThinkVantage Active Protection (I have SSD, not necessary)
    - Audio Driver for Windows 832/864 (Sound works, reports as High Definition Audio Device - I am investigating option for Dolby driver as I had setup in Windows 7 as per W520 Sound Enhancement thread)
    - Ricoh Media Card Reader Device (only used a handful of times in the past, will find some cards to test)
    Outstanding issues:
    - Device Manager reports two non-install devices (Base System Device and Unknown Device).
      - Base System Device hardware ID is: NTPNP_PC <-- I don't know what this is, any ideas?
      - Unknown Device hardware ID is: ACPI/LEN   <-- I assume intel chipset since I had already installed Power Management driver via System Update?
    - Update other Windows standard drivers to Lenovo Windows 8 releases
    - Update NVidia Drivers to latest release/verde (maybe depending on video performance)
    - Setup Fingerprint software in Windows 8 to match that of the BIOS as right now, no fingerprint auth in Win8
    - Install Development software, Hyper-v once I have everything else settled
    - Anything else I'm forgetting?
    Without jumping the gun, it seems as installing using UEFI fixed a few critical reliability problems (VT-d, boot, etc.). Try that if you're having severe stability issues.

  • Disk repair failed after using osx with hibernated windows/bootcamp with macdrive

    hi,
    i just realized i did something really,really stupid.
    I forgot I just closed the lid of my MBP the last time I used windows/bootcamp (instead of shutting it down) and that triggered hibernation.
    The next time I powered my MBP on, OSX startet automatically and I opened some of the same files that "were already open" in the hibernated windows (on osx main/boot partition, using macdrive in windows).
    That (or resuming the hibernated windows later) probably led to some data corruption that prevents the osx volume from booting and neither the automatical repairing during booting nor disk utility (external hdd or recovery partition) is able to repair it. (not sure if there is any difference).
    Booting in verbose mode shows the file names that were double-opened during repair attempts.
    After booting osx from an external HDD, Disk utility fails mounting the main osx volume straight away, but succeeds with mounting it after a failed repair attempt.
    I only have read acces then, though.
    bootcamp partition is still working fine, btw
    1. I wonder if it is possible to gain write access somehow and if deleting just those "double-opened" files/the containing folder (which is saved on dropbox btw, so I really wouldnt mind deleting them/it) would solve the whole problem or if i really have to reformat everything and spend 10+ hours to revert everything to the state before the data corruption. ?
    2. if I have to reformat + reinstall, using migration assistant and the corrupted volume as source isn't a great idea, i guess? are there any options to exclude some specific folders of the user folders?
    3. will the bootcamp partition work after reinstalling osx or do i have to winclone-it somewhere? checkdisk says the volume is OK btw.
    many thanks!

    Hi 3tc, thnx for a tip.
    One more question - did procedure solve also "file already in use" problem on win bootcamp?
    thnx

  • Unable to Resolve Windows Update Issue in Windows 8.1

    Hello,
    I recently, as far back as 1 month ago, began experiencing issues with the update service under the Windows 8.1 OS platform.
    I found that I was having to repeatedly run the Windows Update Troubleshooting Tool. This appeared to fix the issue with each run of the tool, but eventually I'd have the same problem receiving updates again. My problem is as follows:
    1. Windows Update service hangs during register analysis.
    2. Unable to reset (stop or restart) wuauserv. 
    3. Unable to reset (stop or restart) Cryptserv.
    4. Unable to reset (stop or restart) BITS.
    5. Unit recently, was unable to connect to internet from Desktop GUI, but was able to connect using Metro GUI.
    I'm not sure is there was a recent update that caused this issue, but I can no longer download updates for my system, nor can I successfully run the Windows Update Fixit tool.

    Hi,
    Let's confirm these situations:
    Now your desktop Internet Explorer can't connect Internet.
    You receiving the same updates again and again.
    If I am right, please check that update's installation status from update history.

    Backup Exec server cannot expand a computer node in selection list. I drill down to Microsoft Windows Network/Domain/Computers, then when I tried to expand a Windows 8.1 Pro computer node, it hangs out. 
    I narrowed this problem to Windows firewall related issue on Windows 8.1 Pro computer. 
    When I turn off Windows Firewall on Domain profile, Backup Exec Selection expands the computer node of the Windows 8.1 Pro computer. So, I created an inbound rule opening all to BAckup Exec server as following, but it's still not the same as turning off
    Windows firewall specifically on Windows 8.1 Pro computer;
    Any Local IP address, Any Remote IP address, Any port, Any protocol, All Interface, All Programs and Services, All profiles(Domain, Private, Public)
    And there are no rules blocking any which may override the above rule. 
    Ethernet on Windows 8.1 Pro computer shows profile is linked with Domain, but just to make it work, I selected all profiles.
    Even though I opened all available in inbound rule, it's still not the same as turning off windows firewall. Why am I missing? 

    It looks as something related to RPC(UDP 135), but even when inbound rule is all open, why it matters? RPC seems working fine only when firewall is turned off on domain profile. 
    Protocol 17 is UDP
    Port: 135
