• Bootcamp Windows - partition cannot be mounted

  Hey all,.

  I've been using Windows on my iMac (late 2012, Yosemite 10.10.5) without problem but today after I started MacOS Yosemite (to control simple file), cannot start again to return to Windows. Had no problem Bootcamp before... have not used to any advantage either 3rd disk utility. The only thing I have recently increased the Windows size 200 GB partition by decreasing the MacOS partition through disk utility (a month ago, no problem since then until today)

  1. Windows has disappeared from the startup disk

  

  2. disk utility shows disk0s4 gray and cannot be mounted. In addition, the correct partition size was 700 but here its listed as 500 GB GB (which was the old size before you increase it)

  

  3 when I try to restart with pressed ALT, Windows, but cannot restart, with a black screen showing "a disk error occurred.

  

  I'm not very familiar with techniques more. Only, I tried to install "Find" but cannot achieve anything with it.

  I tried your advice above and seems THAT NTFS is there...

  

  one last thing... when I try to check disk0s4, said "it should be repaired. When I hit repair; It says this:

  

  Need my Windows as soon as POSSIBLE, what more should I do?

  I don't have not upgraded to Sierra again. That I should? Or it will be even worse?

  I have tons of files on Windows that I need and unfortunately not supported for a while anywhere (sorry about that now).

  Help, please...

  stuff more to indicate...

  

  and I know if it's significant but cmd + s & ' fsck - fy "has not done anything other than check the Mac partition.

• MacBook Pro not mounting external hard drive

  My Macbook Pro (early 2015, running Mac OS Sierra) is not able to mount my [new] external hard drive (Seagate Backup Slim). It shows up in disk utility, but the volume seems shady. Nothing happens by pressing the command mount or performing first aid. Kindly help me out here.

  Hi vishesh97,

  Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!

  We understand your question that you have a new external hard drive, a backup Slim Seagate, which does not appear when you connect to your MacBook Pro.

  Allows because it is a new hard drive, try to clear the disc first and formatting for Mac OS extended (journaled). The instructions for this process are found in the article below:

• sparsebundle disk image not mounting

  I've recently upgraded to Mac OS Sierra and now I can not mount an image of disk sparsebundle.

  I enter the password, and then nothing happens.

  I tried the same image on a Mac running Leopard and it opens fine.

  I tried a few other sparsebundle some and other encrypted disk images not. Some are open very well, but others do not.

  So, it doesn't seem to be a problem of sparsebundle encrypted disk image.

  Any suggestions?

  After investigation a little more the problem is Sophos AV

  Turn it off and the disk mount fine images.

  I hope this helps.

• External hard drive mounting issues on MacOS Sierra

  After upgrading to OS Sierra, I found that my USB3 drives, directly connected to my iMac end of 2012, turn off at startup. USB 2 disks are unaffected and connect properly. The only way to access my USB3 disks is to disconnect and reconnect every time I start the computer, then they are ok. I tried to reset the NVRAM, but it did not work. I found Os El Capitan until this issue is resolved.

  Do not mount or actually turns out always the system start? It was not clear in your subject line and content later, what was going on.

  Are they NTFS formatted drives? See the solutions frequently asked and answered forum if they are.

• External hard drive will not mount after the update of the Sierra

  Hi, I have an a Segate 1 TB external hard drive that I have with my MacBook Air. After upgrading to Mac OS Sierra, he refused to climb and is therefore invisible in the Finder. Disk utility detects the drive in NTFS initialized and said that all the space has been used. I tried to mount it first through disk utility, but it did nothing. Then I tried via terminal, but he returns "failed to mount. It worked fine before and also works very well on a MacBook Pro running Yosemite. It may be nothing to do with the player, as all files are intact when it is connected to the other Mac. Also, I restarted in Mac utilities and run from there disk utility, and it detected the drive, mounted and fully initialized, with the right amount of space being exhausted.

  I am looking for a solution that does not copy the files off and reformatting if possible, but I'll give it a go, if it comes to that. Thank you very much.

  Most likely your Seagate drivers are not updated.

  NTFS is most likely the culprit here.

  Go to the Seagate site and download and install the latest drivers for your drive and NTFS.

• EFI disk0s1 not mounted. screen shows gray with help file when I restart

  I had these problems with my recent Mac.

  1. it freezes for a few seconds. Then begins to work properly. And then freezes. The beachball keeps spinning and I can't access any of the applications.

  I tried restarting. But came up with another question. The gray screen of the charges and file aid continues to Flash.

  I tried from the recovery mode, but I get the Internet (OS X Lion). I'm under El Capitan. In disk utility, I check and repair the drive. Stop and try again. Now, there are two current icons and off - no logo entry sign and apple. If I'm lucky then after 40-50 seconds, Mac starts up.

  Now, I tried to make the EtreCheck, and he gave me more results for disc

  That's what worry?

  
  

  What can I do to fix these problems?

  Disk0 unit 1 is not the problem. This is the EFI partition, which is never mounted, because it is used only by the bootstrapper, long before that the file system is initialized.

  Your problem is 70 errors in disk0 tranche 2, the volume Macintosh HD. This hard drive (the entire disc) was his. Dead. in ruins. You need a new drive.

• Impossible to automatically mount network without password readers

  Hello

  First of all, I use MacOS Sierra, but I don't think that there is a forum for this yet.

  I have a mini mac which auto powers walk every day and basically sits there backing up files from multiple sources.

  One thing I need to do is to automatically mount a few files on my NAS.

  So far I have tried:

  • Use the Finder to use go-> connect to server, entering the mount point (tried with and without identification information in the path), ensuring that, when the dialog box that appears, I select the option to save the credentials in my keychain, then take this shortcut on the desktop and dragging it in my list of connection
  • With the help of Automator
  • Using AppleScript
  • Ensuring that all applications can use these passwords in the keychain without asking confirmation

  All these work the drive is mounted, but regardless of whether the name of user and password in the connection string or not and ensure that registration is set to password in the keychain, each time, I get a pop up asking for the name of user and password. It's always busy and all I have to do is click on the connect button, but it does not help on an unattended computer restarts every day.

  I was unable to get Apple script, click on the button to connect.

  Someone else you have this problem, or even better a solution?

  Thank you

• WD My Passport drive external drive will not mount once my Macbook Pro is already on

  Hello

  I actually had this problem for a year or two, but I'm finally getting bugged to this topic enough to see if it can be 'fixed '.

  I have a 2 to WD My Passport portable HD connected to my macbook pro via an external (wall outlet) powered TRUST 5 x USB3 Hub.  If everything is connected, when I start the macbook pro there is no problem and the WD My Passport is mounted in the finder.  But if I remove manually the hard drive and then try to mount it again while the macbook pro is running it doesn't mount not.  It used to, but he won't now.

  In the past the WD My passport would need to unplug and perhaps the USB3 hub would need power cable disconnect from him and the USB hubs out the macbook pro.  So when I joined this new and plugged the hard drive WD in the hub, it would rise very well.  But now it's just point blank refuses to ride until I restart the macbook pro.  Once I restart it it climbs perfectly and stays up forever--until it is dismantled manually - and then I have to restart the macbook pro again so he could mount once more.

  I tried all combinations of pull cables and adapters to power but nothing has worked.  After dismantling the WD hd and plug back on the USB3 light led on the hub hub lights up and the hard drive turns manually, but, as I say, it is not mount and it is not visible in disk utility.

  Any ideas please?  It's a bit annoying to have to keep restarting the mac whenever I had to unplug the hard drive WD.

  "As issued" WD Passport appear to cause a number of reports of trouble around here. You have already taken the first "not best" - using a powered hub. Just make sure that the hub is really power (lights on, for example). It could be that the external drive is in its death throws.

  This happen if the WD is the only thing on the powered hub?

  The Mac USB ports work with other devices?

  Here's what my experience with these things has believing me. WD made great bare discs, but I can't be so kind to their pens. Three questions:

  (1) I think that they should use chipsets which are not very easy to Mac.

  (2) most driving the ship formatted for Windows

  (3) even those shipped as "Mac editions have some odd which makes it difficult to access file formatting.

  If you do not have to share the drive with a Windows computer, you can reformat the drive and that often fixes "fail to mount/recognize" question. Disk utility is your tool of choice here because it is already installed on your Mac. Completely erase the WD drive by selecting the tab 'Clear' in the bar tabs to disk utility. Define the plan of Partition to GUID Partition map and journaled for Mac extended format. Press the button 'clear '. The reader will now will be rid of eccentric WD partitioning and formatting schemes and be a good Mac hard drive.

  If you share the road with a Windows computer, consider getting a better workout. After having fought external drives 'brand' on my computers and others that I maintain, I now use only boxes of other computer world with naked WD drives inside. Since this change, I have zero problems. For my MacBook Pro, I use this forum:

  https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/OWC/MEPMU3ES/

  I ordered the external power optionally for use at home and go on the road bus-powered. It's an empty envelope - just a hard drive of nu. They are more expensive than the stuff that Staples puts on sale every weekend, but are much more reliable. I ask the question. "What is my value data?"

• Why my external hard drive cannot be mounted or viewd by a Macbook

  Hello

  I can't see my HD exertenal from the finder.

  I do not have G-Tech HD and I use with TimeMachine. This HD has two partitions.

  The first is used for the backup with Time Machine, a macbook air, and the second partition is used to back up a macbook pro with Time Machine.

  It worked fine until I look in the external hard drive (partition macbook). Now, it is not possible to mount the external hard drive. From the Finder, I see no partition eighter the first or the second.

  I plugged it in an another mAcbook air and no way to see inside the external hard drive.

  Howerver, I pluggged in a 14.04 ubuntu and I was able to navigate through the external hard drive

  Why can I see the contents of the external HD with a ubuntu n not with a Macbook?

  And how can I solve this problem?

  See you soon

  El Capitan has permissions configuration much tighter than earlier versions of Mac OS X and it can become a problem to open files from a different computer. You need to tell us what OS you are running on all computers.

  I suspect that Ubuntu is having no problem because it does not under the same restraint of permissions.

  It worked fine until I look in the external hard drive (partition macbook).

  What you have done here, caused the change of permissions.

  Don't forget that connect a player directly on a computer and use it plugged into an airport will have different permissions issues.

  I don't have much in the way of a solution. Apple has changed repair them permissions on El Capitan.

  You have a Mac running an earlier version of Mac OS X?

  If your two partitions are used just to make the Time Machine backups...

• External CD drive will not mount on OSX

  An external CD/DVD drive will not mount on my iMac running the latest OSX update. I'm on my second CD drive (sorry Amazon). When I insert an audio CD, it is recognized. I am able to rip the CD fine, but then the Player responds neither to open unless I unplug the USB to which I am able to open it and change the CD I tried to use external power to the player. That

  s not the question. Disk Util sees only after fresh USB connection. Profile of sys can see at any time. Back to zero does not correct the problem is it better that disconnect and reconnect. All OS updates have been applied. No other devices or software problems. Y at - it a tip. This should be simple and Yes, CD player works on a Windows machine, but I have not yet tried on another machine from Apple.

  Post edited by: HOUSE is compatible OSX and the issue is not resolved.

  Is the devices designed to work with OS X?

• Target Disk Mode - MacBook is not mounted in the desktop iMac

  I have a MacBook to 2015 and a cable USB-A-USB-C marked 'SS '.  In November 2015, I might start my MacBook in TDM and plug it into my iMac 2013 and see him mount on the desktop.  I could then synchronize some of the files (using synchronize folders) and have up-to-date on my MacBook.  Both computers running El Capitan.

  But about 3 months ago this system has stopped working.  Editing of my MacBook on the desktop iMac became sporadic and now never happens.  I have tried different cables, connected to different USB ports (the back of the iMac, iMac keyboard and a Flash to USB dock (Belkin)), but no joy.

  Has updated the firmware of computers?  El Capitan has stopped this feature very useful to work?

  Any ideas, anyone?

  Chris

  As a work-around, there are other ways of synchronization of files between devices.

  iCloud Drive, Box, OneDrive, DropBox, Google Drive. These will make everything you do.

• Mounting USB keyboard freezes internal keyboard and trackpad

  Hello world

  Spent an hour looking for a solution to this so I hope this isn't a problem of repetition. I am using a wired USB keyboard (DYNEX model No.: DX-WKBDSL) with my MBP end 2011, but whenever I have set and keyboard Setup Assistant appears my internal trackpad immediately stops responding and my internal keyboard sounds fair to me if I tap on a button. This keeps me from hitting continue setting. If I unplug the USB keyboard, I immediately regain control of my internal input devices. Disks hard USB and flash drives cause no problems. I need to be able to use my usb full keyboard, so I have a 10 key. Can someone help me?

  I noticed the guys like the thing EtreCheck here so I just ran on my machine (obviously without my keyboard usb attached since that would freeze everything). I hope that helps!

  Bumping this because I really need an answer.

• Internal HD not mounted and not disk utility

  Hi Mac community.

  I have an early 2008 Mac Pro with 4 internal drive bays.  For now, they are all busy with special various backup and storage drives.  One of my backup / storage drives (not my boot drive) does not appear as "mounted" on the desktop.  It does not also appear in the disk utility.  System information shows 'Unknown' for 3 Bay where the reader resides.  The missing disk is used to save another internal drive that stores the image files almost exclusively and is not a boot disk.  The missing disk is about 3-4 years of age and is called only in service for a few minutes a day when Super Duper asks it to do his homework, who will quickly backup.  In addition, Super Duper is not able to find the drive to back up either.

  I think one way to obtain the missing disk health trouble would close, exchanging one of the other disks in its place, restart and see if the drive and the system information utility recognize another drive in the Bay (#3) in question.  This way I know if I have a dead drive or if there is some other hardware problem associated with this Bay.

  This sounds like a good approach?  Are there other means within the system to check the status of the missing disk, (not start)?

  Thank you!  Mike

  Yes, it's an excellent course of action.
