Partition lost on virtual memory internal after windows bootcamp

Hi guys

Then I used the function of bootcamp recently to implement a part of windows on my mac, I'm on the Macbook Pro and using El Capitan 2012 edition.

I went through the whole process and left my mac making partitioning, when I got home that the loading screen was just my mac normal one and when I went to utility disk that I couldn't find the partition I had chosen for the part of windows. that is, I miss him now 150 GB.

I need help, either to the mac originally 500g so I can try again, or there at - there a way to find the missing partition?

I tried a few terminal codes, but I am very new. Here are all the partitions I, don't notice no bootcamp or windows partition at all.

Andrews-MacBook-Pro: ~ the andrewilsley list $ diskutil

Hello, Chewwy65!

Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. From your post, I understand you are trying to use Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows on your MacBook Pro, but cannot find the partition you created, although it is clear that the storage space allocated to this isn't on your Mac partition. I understand that need this score available, or at least be able to recover the storage of him and am happy to help you.

First, try the instructions in the section "Delete partition" in the following article:

Set up Windows on your Mac partition

If you are not able to delete the partition using Boot Camp Assistant than the above article orders, then back up your Mac partition, wipe your hard drive and reinstall OS X and try Boot Camp Assistant again.

If you are not familiar with the backup of your data, you can use the article below to walk you in place and using Time Machine.

Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac

After you have saved it, go through the steps described in the section below to erase your hard drive. Since El Capitan is your startup disk, you will need to load the computer in recovery by pressing command + R on the keyboard while turning on Mac.

Disk utility (El Capitan): delete a volume

Then, reinstall OS X using the following article.

How to reinstall OS X

After OS X has been reinstalled, use section to ensure that your Mac is compatible with the version of Windows that you are trying to install and then try again Boot Camp Assistant.

  • Virtual memory issue of Windows 7.

    I have problems with Windows 7, do not play videos on websites of third parties. Loading continues running and nothing happens. I tried many fixes and I came across this several times. Says virtual memory reallocated. Now my computer says minimum allocated is 16 MB, recommended 24668 mb, currently assigned 16312 mb. I'm just curious as to what should be my custom settings. If I enter in 16 MB minimum custom I get a window that indicates if windows errors it may not be enough to tell me what the error was if less 800 MB is used. I enter 800 MB minimum and want to 24668 maximum, but am curious to know what effect real will have on my computer. Thank you

  • Bootcamp partition is not as boot drive, after running bootcamp to install Windows 10 on MacbookPro 15 "El Capitan running

    Hello

    I'm trying to install 10 Windows on my Macbook Pro. I followed this guide, but I am stuck between steps 3 and 4. In disk utility, I see that the bootcamp partition is created, but it does not appear as boot drive. I also tried to start my mac while pressing the option key, but still it will not show.

    See below for a screenshot that shows the current state of my machine.

    How can I continue to install 10 Windows on my Mac?

    Your BOOTCAMP partition internal not yet have Windows installed on it.  If you're between steps 3 and 4 (the installation procedure standard), your, assistant Boot Camp should automatically rebooting your computer after partitioning, from the installation media (Windows 10 CD), you must have created.  I assume that you already have a Windows 10 installation disk.  Make sure that the disc is inserted when you first enter assistant Boot Camp and you let the computer restart on its own.

    Apple instructions are a bit vague (somehow I'm not surprised).

    Watch (time code 04:26 - 09:15) in next video for instructions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SxA_OsPEgk).

  • upgrade required Fusion 1.1 to 2.0.5 lost initial virtual machine environment and Windows data... no help on a recovery?

    Thank you for taking the time to read.

    My brand new MacBook Pro came pre-installed with VMWARE Fusion intentionally, so I could run a Windows XP environment to migrate from the 10 years of content from Outlook to Entourage. Everything worked very well when one day, VMWARE said that I had to upgrade. I did and have not been able to run a Windows environment since. My Outlook and Windows configuration data is not available and I have 4 attempts to vmwarevm. When I try to load the original VM, I get an error/warning message: "this virtual machine is obsolete." It's the guest who has begun the process of upgrading to 2.0.5.

    I need access to my first setup of Microsoft Office and Outlook. no indication on how to access my previous data would be great.

    Thanks for any help at all!

    Kind regards

    The error"The VMware Tools resume script did not run successfully in this virtual machine. "is the crux of the problem here...

    I could try to delete the files from the virtual .vmss machine and see if you can connect.

    Right-click on the Virtual Machine window computer virtual library > show in Finder

    Make a right click the .vmwarevm bundle > Show Package Contents

    In this window, trash all .vmss files, and then try and turn on the Virtual Machine.

    Note that this is the same as pulling the plug on a physical pc stuck/frozen.

    I get the message "out of virtual memory"... In order to buy more memory, can I contact Dell for this (there is a Dell computer)?

    "Out of virtual memory" has nothing to do with the amount of physical RAM you have installed.  These errors are caused by incompatible programs, too little free capacity available on the hard drive, correctly configured virtual memory (you set it so Windows automatically manages) or sometimes even by a severely fragmented hard disk partition.

  • virtual memory is too low

    Hello.  My computer tells me that virtual memory is low.  This mean, and it's something I can fix me?  Thank you

    Hi Angie,.

    ·         What is the operating system installed on the computer?

    If you receive warnings that virtual memory is low, you need to increase the minimum size of your pagefile.

    Check to see if the following is useful.

    For Windows XP:

    a. click Start, right click my computerand then click Properties.

    b. in the System Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab.

    (c) in the results pane, click settings.

    d. in the Performance Options dialog box, click the Advanced tab.

    e. in the virtual memory section, click change.

    f. change the value of initial size and maximum size to a higher value value, click the value, and then click OK.

    g. click OK to close the Performance Options dialog box and then click OK to close the System Properties dialog box.

    Hello

    I understand that you have a problem that the virtual memory is low. I'll be happy to help you with this problem.
     
    -Did you do changes on the computer before this problem?
     
    If you receive warnings that virtual memory is low, you need to increase the minimum size of your pagefile. Windows sets the initial minimum size of the paging file equal to the amount of RAM (RAM) installed on your computer and the maximum size equal to three times the amount of RAM installed on your computer. If you see warnings at these recommended levels, and then increase the minimum and maximum sizes.
    Change the size of virtual memory

  • The display of file space of total Information System Page after changing virtual memory allocation?

    I thought that I understood that I could set up a file.sys page on any available partition on Windows, if I wished, for example, to create more virtual memory or move a file to another drive. However the changes I make to my computer are not appearing in the system information, after a reboot - why is - this?

    I have successfully configured internal auxiliary training to take on a pagefile.sys when you use the system advanced settings in the computer file system properties. Page created on the auxiliary drive single file memory is equal to once and a half the size of the physical memory of the computer.

    As I had created a larger file of the Page on the auxiliary drive, I then decided to reduce the Page file on the boot up to 300 MB drive. When I did make changes, I clicked on the set then OK and then I rebooted the entire computer.

    After restarting the computer, I tried to check system information for a summary of the changes I had made to the file Page and virtual memory space and I was disappointed to see that the pagefile on the auxiliary drive does not show upward. Information system had just recorded space Page MB 300 in C:\pagefile.sys file, and there is no trace of the larger Page file that I created on the auxiliary drive. How is that?

    If I go back to the virtual memory window in advanced system settings, it clearly shows I changed two files Page. Yet in Information System shows only the boot Page file drive. How is that?

    I always use Internet Explorer with only 300 MB Page file space, and it works really faster than the default virtual memory allocation, however the system soon slows down after opening about 5 instances of Internet Explorer and the system starts asking to close application windows down to save memory. So why does the system not switch to use the Page file on the auxiliary drive?
