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.

  • Impossible to expand the C partition after the reduction of the DATA Partition

    I dropped my DATA partition to increase the size of my partition Vista (c), but I can't extend C: (as far I understand it) because it is more than a single partition to the right.

    I can reformat the free space and I have another partition, but I would rather extend C:
    Is there a way to do this?

    Also, I wrote my recovery disks, but the DATA partition again should he be there? Also if you do not delete the DATA partition and that do it again you?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    The problem is that your data partition was created after the C partition.

    If you reduce a partition, the free space appears after the shrivelled partition and so you can not add this free space to the other partition of C that is placed behind the partition Data (D).

    The only way to expand the C partition is to delete the partition D and then to add this free space to the C partition, but I wouldn't delete the DATA partition because it has a record of recovery that is necessary to create the Toshiba Recovery DVD

    But if you have already created a Toshiba Recovery DVD then the deletion of the DATA partition is not a serious problem because the Toshiba Recovery disk would format the whole HARD drive and would create 3 new partitions (hidden WinRE partition, partition C system, DATA partition).

    Hello

    How did you install Windows 7 on HARD drive?
    Format you the HARD disk during the installation process?

    Disk Management displays only a single partition. Which is really strange because even if the HARD disk should be formatted, you should get at least two partitions (a small partition for restore Win 7 files) and a larger system partition C

    I think you should try to change the size of partitions in disk management C.
    Right click on the partition and decrease the size of the partition. Then you could create a new partition and could mark it is active.

    It would be very interesting to know how the partition is displayed in Windows Explorer.

  • Can I restore a single partition using the Toshiba Recovery disk?

    I need to know if I can restore just the windows on my partition main because I don t want to format all my HARD drive.
    In my second partition I have backed up all my files and I don t want to erase.
    Please can someone tell if I can do this?

    If you have a Toshiba Vista recovery DVD then the whole HARD drive will be formatted and it s not possible to restore the operating system on a single partition.
    Therefore, you should always backup before using this disc

  • Problem loading my BootCamp Partition after the partitioning of the disk again

    Hello

    I have a problem that I can't find everywhere are talking about here. Everything worked well. My BootCamp partition ran out of space. I wanted to increase the size of the partition, because I really have a lot of space on the Mac side.

    I ended up searching and following the procedure here:

    https://discussions.Apple.com/message/24377993#24377993

    "1) back up all your files (optional, but highly recommended)."

    (2) using the disk utility OSX resize MacintoshHD partition unallocated space leaving as much as you need to add to the bootcamp partition.

    (3) set the Bootcamp startup disk and restart the mac.

    (4) in Bootcamp with Windows running launch Mini Partition tool and select the bootcamp partition.

    (5) choose the option "expand" to extend the partition using all unallocated space.

    (6) the program prompt restart you the mac to apply the task, the cause is not possible while the partition is mounted and windows running.

    7-restart the mac and then automatically Mini Partition tool will do the job a form of "graphics like msdos. »

    I'm in step 3, and that's when I started to have a problem. I resized my Mac partition to have about 100 less GB. Did step number 3, but I got this black screen that says something along the lines of "bootable device found - no. Insert the diskette and press any key any." You know, the message that is displayed when the software that allows the system to boot is not found.

    I had to restart, and then press and hold the option key. It's weird. My Mac partition looks great, but the BootCamp partition isn't here. I loaded the side Mac upward, and I can still see my Bootcamp partition in the finder window. I can go in, see all the files and everything. I always choose Windows as my boot target drive. It just won't load.

    How can I fix?

    1 Please take the Mini tool. It's a total disaster. Should be prohibited on Macs.

    2 Please after the release of the following OSX Terminal commands. Do not change the disk partitioning any further.

    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.

  • Re: Satellite A300 - 27H? Do I need to drive HARD recovery partition after the creation of DVD

    I just created my recovery two DVDs for my new computer and I want to know if I still need my 113GB partition on my computer?

    Hmm.
    The recovery disk would fix the laptop back to factory settings, this means that the recovery disk would be to format the whole HARD drive and would create the same partitions as the first day of purchase to create also the recovery of HARD drive partition too

    So I think you could remove it if you n t want to have this partition on your HARD drive

  • Fix bootcamp win7 partition after the new partition

    Hello!

    I have Macbook (Late 13) and OS X 10.11 installed beta and windows 7 in bootcamp.

    At first, I left 65 GB for Win7, but a few days ago, I decided to increase the size of bootcamp, so I created a new partition of 'Untitled' (~19.91 GB), thus improving the Win7 partition. Then I saw that the Win7 partition disappeared from the "alt-option charge" and the utility to your startup disk.

    Attached screenshots.

    I hope I can get help here.

    Can you post the output of

    sudo dd if = / dev/rdisk0s5 account = 1 2 >/dev/null | hexdump - C

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    You will temporarily lose the HD recovery. Please backup OS X.

    1. merge the HD recovery in OS X. The order of the disk slices is essential in the following command.

    diskutil mergePartitions jhfs + "Macintosh HD" disk0s2 disk0s3

    2. in disk utility, expand the new OS X partition to cover the entire disc.

    3. re-install OS x and recover your Recovery HD.

    If you are comfortable with the Terminal commands, then

    1 backup OSX and all of your files - use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

    2. boot into Internet recovery (CMD + Opt + R) - OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support .

    3. click on Utilties-> disk utility and erase your entire internal drive.

    4. restoration of OSX and your files - use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

    This requires another external drive that can accommodate TM backup - backup disks that you can use with Time Machine - Apple Support .

  • Part of my storage is left after the failure of bootcamp

    I tried to install windows 8.1 on my MacBook Air, but it has failed twice. (I did it without any problems after a few months ago but then I removed it when I do not need). After the second time disk utility has shown that I have another partition but I couldn't use it, so I restored it in bootcamp. At the end of the restoration process, a message appeared that it could not. The score disappeared but 30 GB of my storage does as well.

    It would be sufficient to recover my OS X without the help of a Time Machine to get the lost 30 GB left?

    You'll need either Time Machine backup/delete/restore diskutil OSX or Terminal commands and a re-installation of Mac OS x.
