OS X Mavericks :: Bootcamp Not Starting - BOOTMGR Missing
Dec 2, 2014
I attempted to increase the size of my bootcamp partition using Disk Utility and failed, only creating a second partition for my Macintosh HD. I deleted the second partition and attempted to re-allocate the space to the original Macintosh HD, but not only am I not able to do that but I can't boot back into Windows via Bootcamp. When holding the option key while starting I only get the options "Macintosh HD" and "Recovery". I do get the option to select Windows 7 as the startup disk under System Preferences, but while starting I get the error message "BOOTMGR Missing, Press any key to restart" and I my keyboard doesn't respond so I have to hold power to restart into OSX.Â
I have a Mid-2009 13-inch MacBook Pro, with a 2.53ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, running OSX 10.9.5.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), With Windows 7 on Bootcamp

I bought a MacBook Pro 17inch i7 in November 2010 and it was working fine under Snow Leopard and Lion since then. Yesterday I installed Bootcamp and it was workng also. Today when starting from Bootcamp to Lion I had a Kernel Panic (had this never before) and the screen turned black. I just have the energy cable connencted to it, the computer starts somehow (noise) but no Startsound and screen keeps black.Then I made a little mistake by inserting a LION installer DVD. Cannot get this out anymore, even when I press the trackpad when starting it. I changed the internal hard drive to be sure that the problem does not come from there. I reset the PRAM. I reset the SMC. No way to get the laptop back to work.

I have a mid-2010 15 inch Macbook Pro. After putting it off for some time, I went to install the 10.9.3 update. However, after installing the update, the computer won't start! A progress bar appears under the Mac Logo during start-up, but it only gets about 1/5th of the way through, when the bar disappears and then the mac shuts down. I've attempted this at least 5 times and it always does the same thing. I held option during start-up to boot into the Recovery disk, and tried to repair the partition (I also have a bootcamp partition), but it said it was unable to repair.

I had my mac book hooked up to the tv via hdmi cable as I often do. After finishing using I closed the lid as usual and when I came to use it again I it wasn't responding and was a little warm. Â
When I rebooted manually I got the chime, the apple logo, the rotating grey wheel then a plain grey screen.Â
I've tried all the different resets, i.e cmd r, shift, cmd r p, cmd v, cmd s.Â
When I did a different safe mode start up with the black screen and white letter modes I could see a few errors but went sure what they meant and they disappeared and it went to a blue screen which is also what happens when I do cmd r.Â
I don't have lion. I have the latest osx upgrade from about 2 months ago (can't remember the name)

On my Mom's iMac, while starting up with Mavericks 10.9.3 (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5), the usual apple first appears on the gray screen. Then, it flashes hot pink with pixelated edges before completing the startup.

I have an external drive formatted with HFS. When I am in XP under bootcamp and looking through the files on that drive some of the files and folders are missing. When I boot back into snow leopard, the missing files and folders are there. It doesn't look like they are hidden or anything. Is there some setting I am missing or is there a bug in the bootcamp HFS driver?

My 2014 21" iMac powers itself down after about 10 seconds while trying to startup in safe boot mode. I'm not even sure why it is trying to start in safe boot mode. I shut it down after a power outage while plugged into an APS UPS. I'm guessing that since I interrupted the auto shutdown it is restarting in safe boot mode. Either way, I get a grey screen with a big apple and a progress bar. The progress bar gets to about a tenth full and the power just shuts off.Â
I've tried starting up while holding the alt key to select the Macintosh HD. The same thing happens.

I migrated from an older OS X Mac to a newer 27" iMac via Time Machine backup. The user accounts were created perfectly during the migration, as was the Admin account. On first start up on the log in screen, and ever since, the users' icons or names & passwords will not be displayed, but the Guest and Admin icons will display properly. I can log in as Admin, then go to the fast user switching screen, and all the accounts are displayed and behave the way they should. Automatic log in is turned off.

I have added a new mailbox called archive in mail and selected "On My Mac". I was expecting that it would show up in my sidebar under "On My Mac", but nothing shows.
I tried recreating the mailbox and I get an error that it already exists.Â
I am not syncing with iCloud so I know that is not the issue.Â
How do I get "On My Mac" mailboxes to show in the app?Â

I recently experienced trouble with my iMac Late 2012. As a result of this I was wanting to do the step of reinstalling the OS completely. Complete with Time Machine backup and so on. So far so good.
As I tried booting into recovery holding R nothing happened. Tried again booting with options hold down. It then only showed me my hard drive to choose from. With another Mac I made a bootable Flash Drive which worked perfectly in my MacBook Air. So tried booting to the flash drive with my iMac by holding C and then again with options and again I was presented only my regular hard drive. Â
I already did this terminal thing { diskutil list; echo; diskutil cs list; } | open -f -a TextEdit and the result showed that there is no Recovery Partition installed. Still no problem. I did research and found out that it is possible to reinstall it by reinstalling Mavericks. No the only problem is: It won"t let me reinstall anything. I only got prompted a message that it can't be installed on my hard drive.
So now my question: Â Is there any other possibility to get rid of anything there is on my hard drive and do a clean fresh install of Mavericks?

Apple Mail Version 7.3 (1878.2)Â
I have a number of email accounts, most of them IMAP.Â
It seems recently (say the past month) its been very slow. The Activity windows shows the accounts seems to just not move. They do eventually process but it takes a long time. They will sit for a minute on stuff like:Â
"Opening mailbox"
"Getting unread counts"
"Checking status of mailbox"Â
It seems sometimes they are fast, but when an account gets "stuck" it just takes forwever........ Â
Shutting Mail down (or trying to reboot) takes a long time because it always has to wait for these processes to try and finish.Â
Perhaps the bigger problem (maybe related maybe not) is that sometimes when I send an email, there is not record of that email.  Its not placed in any Sent folder, its not uploaded to the IMAP account. However, they do seem to be actually sent.  I *think* this may account while Mail is "stuck" trying to process an account, but I'm not sure.... Â
I have tried Rebuilding all the IMAP folders (not all my offline folders). I have deleted the Envelope files to have Mail reindex. Â

I am trying to figure out why I can select some email addresses from senders, and when I right click, I get the option to add that address to my contacts, while in others this selection is missing. In either case, the email address or contact IS NOT in my contacts.

Since upgrading to Maverick 10.9.3 my Photoshop Layer Style icon (.asl files) has disappeared and there is only a generic white piece of paper instead.
The other icons for Actions and Brushes are there so I'm wondering why the .asl icon is not appearing.

I am using Mail from my 15", late 2012, 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7 MBP running Maverick OSX 10.9.5 with 16 GB memory. I have 4 mail accounts with approximately 30 folders. Everything has worked fairly good the past year, with a bump here and there. Suddenly today nearly all mail in these folders has disappeared. There are a few folders that have retained all their mail, however the majority is gone. Is there a remedy or is it gone? Rebuild has done no good.

I have lots of emails missing from my mailbox from the day i upgraded to mavricksÂ
Example i have a mailbox called "machines" which shows only email from 20-02-14 all mails before that date are missing..Â
I tried rebuild mailbox but it just shows mail from 20-02-14.Â
The interesting part is the mail from before is still there..Â
when i search for a mail in spotlight from a sender it shows the mail and shows it to be in the machines folder.. i can open the mail read its content. But when i see the machines mailbox the mail is not listed there.Â
what could be the problem and how can i get the mails back this is happening on almost every mailbox.Â

I scroll through my incoming mail and find a message I want to reply to or forward. I move my cursor to the body of the message and swipe up and down to try to make the mini tool bar (trash reply reply all forward) appear within the message.Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. I've tried clicking on the message and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

I noticed that System Preferences, App Store no longer shows a padlock at the lower left hand corner, yet other System Preference windows show the padlock. Why is that? Is there a way to restore the padlock? I have already tried "repairing" my install and the padlock did not come back.

I have a 24" early 2009 iMac running OS X 10.9.4, Mail version 7.3. I believe there should be an "edit" button to the right of Mailboxes.
I have VIPs, Flagged, Drafts, Sent, Junk, Trash and Archive listed below Inboxes. Can I hide some of these and still see Inboxes and "On my mac" folders?

The time and date, wifi and other icons are missing from the toolbar. Other icons are missing from the finder window and the dismiss and minimize icons are missing from all windows. I have tried to delete the com.apple.systemuiserver.plist file and also tried to reboot in safe mode to no avail. When I do reboot, the some, but not all, of the top bar icons appear then disappear. It must be a plist file but I haven't a clue as to which one...
