  • Cannot use disk utility to create the partition of the free space on the external USB drive.

    I have a red 3 TB Western Digital drive in a USB hard drive docking station.

    The reader is GPT, and I have two volumes on it (a single volume is "Microsoft reserved", another volume is NTFS).

    The other part of my drive is 1.5 TB of free space. I want to create a new partition with free space so that I can put backups Time Machine encrypted external hard disk.

    I checked free space on the drive with my Windows machine:

    
    DISKPART> list disk

    DiskPart displays 2 partitions - a 128 MB and the other GB 1267 with 1526 MB of free space.

    I took the hard drive of my MacBook Pro running OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 and pulled towards the high disk utility, but for some reason, that it does not resemble the disk utility it is to see the free space, so I can't create a new volume.

    Here are a few screenshots:

    I'm a new Mac user. My company recently gave me a Mac, so the first thing I want to do is to create a new partition on this external USB drive to put backups Time Machine figures on it.

    In the research I did find a way to do it on a mac computer without erasing the drive and starting over. But you can go to your windows computer and partition the free space of disks. Then use the mac to set the free space as mac os extended journaled. Here's what I found. http://www.PCWorld.com/article/2066191/how-to-partition-a-hard-drive.html the only other way would be to copy the file on the external drive, somewhere, so you can delete it and re partition for windows and mac. Then reinstall windows files. I'm not familiar with windows systems.

  • Use disk utility to erase hard drive, erase everything, it

    I just use disk utility to erase the hard drive of Windows base.  It has 6,2 GB of space.  The erase process takes only a few seconds.

    I read that it could take hours.  I suspect that he does not erase the hard drive.    I have several old PC drives and want to use disk utility to erase.

    How would I know if it works?

    It should not be. A 2 TB drive is an option on this model. If it will not be the main disk where the OS is installed, then the only real problem in that you should have to run is to find an additional SATA cable.

  • Creating image using disk utility

    Hi - I am trying to create an image file of and CD Audo to later burn multiple copies (I own the rights on this CD).

    The process I use is to load the CD in the drive SuperDrive, open disk utility and select the disk in the sidebar (curiously, the drive itself is not there, just the disk). Can I go to file = > new Image == > Audio CD Image. Select a destination, Format: unalterable, encryption: no) and click Save.

    He done much work slowly disk reading and writing of the file (Audio CD.dmg). However, if I try to open the file when it has finished, it said "no mountable file system" and if I burn it to a CD - r disc resulting almost blown my speakers with the sound. To check, I tried with a commercial CD as well - same result.

    I'm doing something wrong here. He doesn't know he used to work in previous versions of the utility.

    System: Mac Pro early 2008 OS X Superdrive Pioneer (original Apple) El Capitan 10.11.5.

    Hello

    There is a little powerful 3rd party app called 'Burn '. Older applications, it's works well in El Capitan as well. If you decide to download and install, you will need to go to preferences > Security and privacy to allow him permission to run for the first time. After that, he will not ask you again. It is simple and easy. Create .iso and burn. Create and burn data/audio CDs and copy CDs as well. There are a few 3rd party applications which are worthy of Mac, and this one is. The name of it, is once again, 'Burn '.

    Bravo!

  • Accidentally lost all my files from external drive in disk utility

    Hi guys, I will try to be very clear since its my first time, ask a question here.

    Then, I opened the disk utility and attempted to create a partition on my external hard drive 1 TB Toshiba USB3.0 (I thought I might have a separate location of 100 GB). But instead, I end up getting the hard drive is blank and changed to OS X (HFS) in MS-DOS (FAT32) mode.

    So my question here, just delete all of my information? If so, how can I get it back? Or just create a partition and the other information are hidden (which would be like a miracle)?

    It is very important, I have to retrieve this information. I had close to 900 GB of professionals to the personal files. All my work, years of personal projects of my digital life is here.

    Help, please!

    This can be a possibility:

  • Make the disk image using disk utility and the message "Apple_HFS: 0" is displayed

    I'm doing a disk image to try to work on that later. This is an image of a failed disk drive. Some areas can only be read, I know and the process takes a long time because of this, so I'm willing to be patient.

    I get messages in the disk utility window that says "Apple_HFS: 0" and "Creation of image xxxx.dmg.

    The disc has about 700 GB. I started it about 20 hours ago, and the blue bar is about 5% of the way, so not much happened.

    I fear that the message "Apple_HFS: 0" means that the disk image is not made. I am concerned about the part "0". I don't know what that means.

    I don't want to do it for days and days and find that there not to make a disc image all this time.

    I realize that the fact that the external drive is damaged (probably damage) means that this process will take longer than normal. I am willing to leave it for a week so that he can make a disk image. But not more than a week because then it is not worth my time.

    So my question is: does the message ' Apple_HFS: 0 "means something bad, or that the message normally during this procedure?

    Apart from this message and the message "Xxxx.dmg imaging", there is no other message.

    I think I'm making progress because the bar has moved since I started the process. For a long time I couldn't see a bar at all. And today, after spending the night, there is a small bar, as I said, about 5% complete. But it's very slow. It would take at least a week for the disk image to be made. I just want to know if the messages that I see are normal or not.

  • Install Win8 on new HARD drive using disks of recovery on HP Envy M6

    Okay, so I have my hard drive crashed a few months. So, I ordered a set of HP recovery disks. I finally get around to retrieve Win8 on the new HARD drive. However, I follow these instructions and it does NOT work. I get to the Boot Manager and nothing is there - at all. So, I went back to the BIOS and disabled secure boot (just in case). Yet, nothing. After several hours, I dropped...

    Flash forward to today. I have enabled the legacy starts, moved DVD player y up in my order of start and stuck in a Win7 disc, I have here. One immediately recognizes the disc.

    I finally decided to try to install recovery using USB thought which may help. So, I had on my desktop and tried to rip an .iso of the disks. Both PowerISO and IMGBurn rise "IO error" partially through the period of inquiry.

    I'm starting think that the discs are bad... That would not explain why can't I see my optical drive in the Boot Manager however.

    Thoughts?

    It was records. I downloaded a copy of Win8 and it began immediately.

  • Cannot start Bootcamp, after you have added the partition using disk utility

    My question is similar with repair Boot Camp after having created the new partition.

    recently I install the el capitan + windows 7 (using bootcamp), everything works fine after I add the third partition. (I anticipate the third partition will be use for dropbox, for mac and windows can sync-ing a dropbox for each folder).

    After I've done the third partition and restart the system, I want OPTION and found no windows.

    Can you post the output of the following commands in OSX Terminal?

    diskutil list

    Cs diskutil list

    sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

    sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

    The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.

    Make a backup, best 2 separated on 2 discs. Start of recovery volume (command - R on a restart, or hold down the option/Alt during a restart and select the Volume of recovery). Run the check/repair disk utility and repair permissions until you get no error.  If this doesn't resolve the problem, try reformatting the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS extended (journaled), then click on the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the operating system.

  • Cannot restore the files from hard drive damaged in disk utility

    Questions

    1. can I save my files/fix this problem without having to restore via disk utility?

    2. What am I doing wrong / I can do to restore correctly on an external hard drive via disk utility?

    Background

    Last week when I turned my MacBook Pro 2012 I got stuck on the gray login screen. The progress bar moves very, very slowly and when he finished my laptop spontaneously restarted and repeated the same thing over and over again. Here's what I tried to do so far:

    -Start in SafeMode: does not work

    -Extended Apple Diagnostics/Apple Hardware Test: test results: no problem found

    -Utility (recovery and valorisation of the Internet) disk: disk hard Mac (Apple HDD) and Recovery (partition) HD are not damaged, but the partition disk0s2 is (created after a failure; a year not logged - if it matters) and in 'check' and 'fix' the latter I get inconsistent error messages.

    Disk utility error messages

    Most often, I get this error:

    The volume disk0s2 was found damaged and must be repaired. Error: This disc needs to be repaired. Click on the ERD.

    Stopped disk utility check "disk0s2."

    Disk0s2 volume could not be repaired after 3 attempts.

    Error: Disk utility can't repair the disk. Save as many files as possible, reformat the drive and restore your files packed around the top.

    I also received this error message once:

    Wrong number of extended attributes (it should be 730585 instead of 730589)

    Wrong number of access control lists (there are 1364 instead of 1368)

    Save the files to external hard drive?

    Before that I didn't even used/accessed Time Machine.  I have a new HDD external, formatted for Mac. I created two partitions: backup and Time Machine (so I can start using it once I have find this current issue). When I try to restore disk0s2 external hard disk I get an error restore failed (252 or 254, I think).

    When you drive is damaged, it is extremely difficult to make progress.

    I recommend the lessee a spare drive in an external enclosure and install MacOS on it again. Then boot from that and you are back in business. You can use the full power of Mac OS AND additional utilities to recover your files.

    More 350 000 files on your damaged disc are Mac OS - and those that can be installed in replicas of prefect by a new installation on a new drive. You can't Brute force 'all' copy of a damaged disc. What you want back damaged drive is not Mac OS X files - you want YOUR files. They are stored in the Directory/users in a folder with your short user name. with additional utilities, you can simply copy this directory, or use a recovery as data rescue program to get individual files.
