completely remove a partition of the HD

I had my iMac a few weeks now and created a partition to put things that I wanted to keep away from the main road.  Now, I decided to install windows 7 and possibly upgrade to windows 10.

Problem!

When I try to use Bootcamp to install it guard refuses to install because of the existing partition and I don't understand why. Is it possible that this partition can be removed COMPLETELY, not just erased? I tried to reinstall El Capitan once again, but the partition is still there.

Any ideas?

What happens when you try to use disk utility to delete the partition?

  • new Pavilion 21 t TouchSmart AIO-will want to completely remove McAfee (using a different anti-virus)

    Hello, I will be getting a new 21 t AIO TouchSmart, HP Pavilion and to completely remove McAfee before I install another antivirus - program (have always had problems with McAfee and have had good success with another big brand).

    In the past with other PCs, it seems that even after I thought I had completely deleted McAfee, ("uninstall program") somehow at one time or another something associated with McAfee would jump to the top (can't remember what happened exactly - that was some time ago) and I could never completely remove!

    Any suggestions on completely removing? Will command the unit soon HP-

    is is possible that upon request they wouldn't install it before shipping?

    By chance is perhaps somehow part integral of the operating system/software so that it can never be removed completely?

    I'd appreciate any help! Thank you very much.

    You cannot claim that the software not installed McAfee antivirus. You can and should be able to completely remove your computer McAfee antivirus trial software after the installation. Please, see How to uninstall or reinstall products supported McAfee using the tool of Consumer Products Removal (Development) for instructions on uninstalling the McAfee software and using the Development to remove completely all traces of it.

  • Remove recovery partition satellite A200 - option "Erase the hard drive"?

    Hi people,

    I have a new Satlellite A200 and it won't start. Tried to run the recovery CD, but no joy.
    Could someone please tell me, if I chose

    'Clear the hard disk' then 'delete all data and partitions of the hard disk '.

    This would also remove the computer's internal recovery partition?

    I have the recovery CD, but as I said, they do not work and I was wondering if the compensation completely HARD drive then runs the disk recovery partition recovery help.

    Sorry if this is a fundamental question for you guys! I read through hundreds of threads, but could not find a definitive answer.

    Thanks in advance,

    If you mean the partition hidden WinRE Vista then; YES

    But don t worry buddy. The Toshiba Vista recovery CD would be to format the whole HARD drive and erase all partitions, but it creates the hidden WinRE Vista back to the HARD disk partition.

  • I installed beta 2, and it froze on the epub add on. I uninstalled is installed again the same thing. uninstalled then installed 1.1 epub removed then uninstalled and reinstalled beta 2. everything freezes on the 1st page. I can COMPLETELY remove to reins

    I installed beta 2 of FF4 and initially it worked fine. Then I went to add ons and it froze in fullscreen with epub. I have the screen shot so its all good. It sfull screen and symbol RSS feed at the top left of the screen then below Whats new - epub reader Version 1.3.0.3 then below which its says of bug fixes in some cases FF4 crashed when an ebook with epub reader has been loaded and tabs where switched.
    Anyway, I uninstalled the beta version 4 then installed 1.1 and removed the epub reader. Then reinstalled FF4 B2 but it hangs right on the opening.
    For short holder, I used 2 Beta it seemed wise great speed over previous versions.
    I think if I had to be able to been completely remove firefox and do a claen install it can work.

    Looks like you are using Firefox for Maemo (Nokia N900).

    If you want a completely clean install, you can get rid of your old profile by typing this command in the X Terminal app before launching Firefox:

    .Mozilla CD; MV fennec.bak fennec

    (Who will move your profile in a backup location, so a new will be created. This will hide your bookmarks, history, cookies and Add-ons, but you can restore the old backup profile if you wish.)

  • How to completely remove the Messenger app?

    Hello.

    Anyone know how I can remove the Facebook Messenger of the Cloud application? I want to remove it completely from all my devices and then reinstall it from scratch, but it still shows as yet on the cloud.

    I'm not sure it relevant to this question, but I'm running a Mac OS X El Capitan 2009 and a 6 iPhone on iOS 9.2.1

    Any help much appreciated.

    Thank you

    The app is not physically on the cloud, it's just to show that you have downloaded before and you can download it again.

    If you remove the application of the iPad, it deletes everything associated with the application. If redownload you the app, it will always install a new copy and cool app iCloud does not store the app, so you pass never twice the same exact copy. It will be a new copy of the application each time you remove and then reinstall the application.

    In addition, you will need to remove the application from each device, and then start a new download on each device. You can remove an application by pressing your finger on the icon for a few seconds until what apps shake. Press the 'x' to delete. You can also view the sizes and remove apps from settings > General > storage and use iCloud > manage storage (under the storage section) > Messenger > remove app Note If you select storage manage under the section iCould Messenger does not appear.

  • Impossible to return to a single partition after the removal of bootcamp

    Hi, I have a Mid 2009 macbook air I used Bootcamp with windows 7.

    I now do not want plus the windows partition and have deleted the partition but I can't remove it and return to a single partition. He won't let me not resize the main volume and don't lead me with one?

    The windows partition disappeared and I find myself with the free space, but can not resize the partition apple to use the space.

    Can anyone help?

    If i ' right n in this reading, you want to add the empty partition to the OS X. I don't think that this is possible. The only thing you can do is a clean install of the OS X after you wipe and merge together.  I always do a clean install on a USB. Let me know if you need instructions.
