Using Bootcamp - missing partition

Similar Questions

• Cannot use the Windows Partition

  So, I have seen very similar messages and followed several forums, but I can't yet figure out what to do next.

  I have 8.1 Windows on my Mac.  I wanted to repartition the Windows partition and make bigger it because I was running low on space, and the Windows partition is what I use it mostly for graduate studies.  About a year ago, I took an easy youtube video and used Mini Wizard Partition re-partition space and it worked perfectly.  I have found the same video and tried to repartition the Windows partition again, but apparently I royally screwed up.

  My BootCamp is not yet visible more in disk utility.  Under the partitions, there is an option called "disk0s4" greyed, but I'm not allowed to do something with it.  I can't verify or repair.  If I go to Applications, BootCamp Assistant is there, but he wants me to start the installation of BootCamp.  It was not an option to restart Windows more, and when I turned on with alt + market, Windows was not an option more.

  I followed this tutorial:

  http://nerdr.com/bootcamp-partition-lost-repairing-Mac-partitions/

  and when I restarted my Mac, restart Windows was an option. So I thought that I fixed it! EVIL.  My screen was black and said: 'Missing Operating System '.

  I downloaded EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard for Mac (because it was another suggestion), and I was able to recover and see the files on the NTFS disk0s4, so I'm quite positive, they have not all been completely erased.  Or at least the part of basic Windows is still there.  I can't recover the drive to anything, because it tells me that I will just be fitness on the same drive, and I honestly don't know how to retrieve these files will help with the side of the partition of things.

  I also used TestDisk and it seemed to find my missing partition, but in the middle of analysing it, it says something like "disk too small."  After further research, I went through and took only the most recent score that seemed to be deleted with NTFS, and when you are trying to do, it would allow me to make a 'logic' partition because he said something in red, as 'bad file.'

  My Mac still works perfectly, but I'm terribly need to recover my windows.

  Here are my findings from a similar position:

  Now, my major dilemma is that in the original post, he said to the partition of the hybrids with the numbers of 3-4-5, but I was unable to do so.  When I tried 5, he said "partition does exist or is too large."  So I used the 2 3 4 numbers.  Now, I'm at the point where I use the w command (to write), but I don't want to do it if I didn't the other steps correctly.

  1 mini Partition tool is very dangerous and should never be used on a Mac, in particular, more than once.

• Impossible to install Bootcamp and partition problem

  Hello guys, I really need your help. I can't install Windows more Bootcamp partition.

  So I read a lot of articles on the problem of the partition but it seems that I can not solve the problem at all and I think my problem is very critical. Here's how things all turned out badly:

  -J' tried to update to OS X version 10.11.5 from the Mac App Store.

  -After restart my Macbook, I got the message error "OS X could not be installed on your computer...". ».

  -J' tried to find a solution and I found this:https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203482

  -J' did what the site Web told me, that I used the disk utility to resize the partition to the Mac (at the time I had Windows 10 Bootcamp on my Mac). So the thing has helped, I was able to update OS X 10.11.5. After that, I had resized the partition of the Mac to its normal size. (I was very careful not to touch anything else like Bootcamp)

  ' - The day after I restarted my Mac to use Windows, but since the splash screen, I saw only 'Macintosh HD', I booted in OS X and is passed as a parameter to indicate my boot under BOOTCAMP drive, after restarting black screen said: "no boot device... »

  -I went on the web and find all the solutions and I formatted the BOOTCAMP partition and deleted all his data, now my Bootcamp Assistant said: "the startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition.". I tried to install Windows 7 on USB, I chose Bootcamp (score 4), but now I have this: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. the selected disk is a MBR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can be installed on disks GPT THAT MBR cannot support... »

  Now I can't find any way to install back my Windows on the partition, I read on the internet that OS X sees that the GPT partition Windows considers MRB. Here are a few photos can help:

  

  My Macbook HDD has 3 parts: Macintosh HD (use for OS X), Bootcamp (used for the installation of Windows) and DATA (use to store large data)

  Hi Jason Dang,.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. What a great way to try to get this problem resolved on your own! The best resolution would be to format the drive outside the Bootcamp utility. Your drive must be formatted using the recovery partition. Once you format the drive, you will be able to use the wizard Boot Camp re partition and re install Windows. Please try the link below and select "erase a disc and reinstall OS X.

  How to reinstall OS X on your Mac

  Restore your Mac to factory settings should get your Windows successfully installed.

  Have a great day.

• Bootcamp missing after upgrade to El Capitan

  Hi, I want to run Windows so that I can remove the ADS 'files' associated with the files I transferred to a Windows computer for Mac Pro (mid-2010) I.

  After the upgrade to El Capitan (or perhaps Yosemite, as I haven't used bootcamp for awhile) bootcamp will no longer appear when I hold 'alt' when starting.

  I use NTFS for Mac OS X by Paragon and the bootcamp partition appears in the Finder, and the files are accessible.

  I have a backup time machine in Mac OS X I have an El Capitan USB drive Installer.

  Disk0 is an SSD that would 744,91 for OS X and 253 GB of bootcamp.

  I read the posts here who have a similar problem, but my system seems to have an additional problem with a partition OS X 'extra' appearing in the readings (see below) that should not be there.

• Trouble installing EL Capitan. Drive uses the GUID partition scheme

  Hello world

  I am installing an SSD on a Mac book pro 2011. I had been using the separate (Samsung ssd 830 256 GB) ssd (OS not installed) drive on my computer windows yet. I have created an El Capitan installation on a USB drive, swapped the hard drive on SSDS. I open at startup disk utility, erased the drive samsung with format: extended OSX journaled.

  Then returned to install El Capitan, but the Samsung SSD is grayed out and when I click it, it says "this disc is not use the GUID partition table scheme." Use disk utility to change the partition scheme. Select the drive, click the partition tab, select the volume configuration and then click options"

  However when I return to the disk utility, then select Samsung SSD, the partition tab is grayed out and cannot be selected.

  I don't know how to proceed. I would greatly appreciate any help

  Thank you

  You must select the drive icon above the volume icon, that is selected in the screenshot.

• The .iso file I created with the Windows DVD 7 Professional 32 64 BIT is not installed using BootCamp because it says that it requires a 64 BIT .iso?

  Hello

  I try to have a system dual boot on a 2012 end iMac 27 inches with Intel i7 under OS X El Capitan v10.11.4 who had replaced running Fusion HD. I created files .iso files to both a .cdr WIndows 7 all-in-one 32/64 BIT DVD and a DVD from 32 to 64 BITS of Windows 7 Professionaland also downloaded the BootCamp5.1.5621 drivers. I created the files .iso on a USB disk ejector WD Passport 160 GB ATA. When I try to use BootCamp to create a WIndows 7 install disk from the selected .iso files, it is said that this version is not 64-BIT and it requires 64-BIT install on my iMac. What Bootcamp, look in the files of la.cdr/.iso it determines that it is not 64 bit?

  Please use your product key and download an ISO only 64 bits from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 and place it in your Documents folder. Find a 8 + GB USB Flash drive, which will be in the format / erased by BCA. Run BCA and use the option create USB Installer (it should automatically check the software download option). When you are prompted, point to the ISO. This installer from USB can be used repeatedly.

  El Capitan will create Setup with BC6 USB drivers. Please follow install Windows 7 and previous versions on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple Support and follow steps 1 through 16 in the Windows 7 installation section. Pay attention to step 11 in particular.

  Here's the info re: my product:

  Here is some information about: my volumes:

  • I have OSX installed on a partition 'Macintosh SSD' a 500 GB SSD
  • The files are on a 'Macintosh HD' partition in a 1 TB HARD drive
  • I have Windows Bootcamp installed on a "SOLID" NTFS partition in the same 500GB SSD
  • and another NTFS partition for Windows files "LIQUID" in the same 1 TB HARD drive
  • I also have a new partition (which lead to my problem) "ScratchDisk' in the same 500GB SSD

  Also very "SOLID" and "LIQUID" NTFS partitions are currently read-only that is ' owners: disabled "in disk utility after creating a new partition"ScratchDisk"for Photoshop in the same 500GB SSD and SOLID will not show up to start up after pressing the button 'Option '.

  Dr. Alan

  Welcome to Apple Support communities

  Try holding the ALT key during start up your Mac to the top. This will make all bootable discs appear on the screen, so tell me what options you see here. Maybe the Windows installation is damaged or you have removed OS X by mistake.
