OS X Yosemite :: Disc Utility Uses Wrong Language
Dec 5, 2014I just bought Macbook from someone who spoke Spanish, and they had the language set to Spanish.
I changed the language to English under the "language and region," setting in system preferences, and Mac Os seems to be all in English.
However, when I restart the computer and enter disc utility, the language is still in Spanish, and I can't figure out how to change it.
In the upper right hand corner there is a US flag that says, "Estadounidense", but I don't know if it this is a country or language setting. How I can change Disc Utility to English?
Power Mac :: Running Disc Utility On The G4 Hard Drive?
Feb 21, 2012I got a Power Mac G4 from a friend. I realized i can store all my content on there and just access it remotely from my 2011 Macbook Pro. While my G4 was running remore desktop it froze. So i held the power button to shut it off and when i restarted it all i get is the Apple logo on the gray screen,and i t wont start in safe mode. I forgot to mention i started togo throught the G4 and take his name off and ad mine (hard drive name and user names). I took the hard drive out and attached it to my MacBook Pro. The hard drive works fine,And i can access everything. I tried running disc utility on the G4 hard drive with my MacBook Pro. and it said ALOT.

MacBook Pro :: Can't Use OS X Install CD To Get To Disc Utility
Sep 28, 2010So I need to start my MBP up in OS X but i currently have windows selected to start up everytime through bootcamp. Problem is I don't have a serial key and I'm stuck at the authorization prompt. At this point I don't even care to use windows anymore I just want to get back to my Mac. Which brings me to the subject of the post: I've read that you can choose which partition to use at startup from the Disc Utility and I've tried to access this by inserting my OS X install disc and holding down the "C" key during startup. All this does for me is add a few seconds to Windows boot up time. Also, I've tried holding the "Alt/Option" key at startup to get to the disk selection menu but all this does is bring up a grey screen with a Lock on it and a password field. The admin password I made when I installed OS X definitely doesn't work and no serial numbers I've typed in works either. As a last ditch effort I tried changing the firmware password through Single-User Mode, but holding down "CMD+S" during startup does nothing for me either. Could it be that no Mac startup commands work when Windows is trying to boot up?

OS X :: Disc Utility Fails On New Internal Macbook Hard Drive?
Sep 5, 2009I just upgraded my MacBooks hard drive and put in the install cd to restore from my time machine backup. Evedything went smoothly until I chose the new hard drive as the destination for the restore. I was told that the install failed to erase the hard drive and to restart and try again. So I did but when I try to erase or partition the drive, there is an error and it fails. The hard drve seems fine since it can be seen by disc utility but after it fails to partition or erase, it disappears from the disc utility forcing me to restart. The process I've done about 5 times now is boot the comp, choose time machine restore, then while the install is calculating the space the restore would require and searching for discs to install on, nothing shows up so I go to disc utility and try to erase or partition the drive only for it to fail and disappear from disc utility. At this point I hold down the power button to turn it off and restart the process.
The first time I tried, the restore process saw the drive while calculating the restores size requirements and allowed me to go the next step where it would automatically try to erase the hard drive (without me having to go into disc utility myself) but after the first try, it just says "searching for disks" and so I go into disc utility myself where I can see the disk.
MacBook Pro :: Flashing Folder At Startup, Disc Utility Can't Repair It
Jun 8, 2012There's a flashing folder at startup and won't boot. I've tried the disk utility on the install cd but it cannot be repaired. It repaired it once, but when restarted it happened again. Ive also tried to reset the pram (not ire if thats what its called) and tried recovery hd, but those didnt work either. I want to backup my files, mainly pictures, but don't know how or if it's even possible through disc utility.

Jun 5, 2009I have had a problem for about a month whereby my MBP won't shut down, it just hangs after it has cleared the desktop and only the wallpaper is displayed.

Sep 19, 2009I have a Kingston 1gb usb drive. I know how to use disc utility and format it by choosing the FAT option, but it never works correctly for me. I can use the drive on my Mac fine, but whenever I plug it into a PC it states that the drive needs to be reformatted. my only access to a PC is at school, and the permissions do not allow me to reformat the usb drive on those computers. I don't understand why my Mac can't just format it correctly for PC use..

Aug 8, 2010I recently updated my system to Snow Leopard which worked fine. Then I tried to upgrade some software the computer will not reboot. I have tried resetting the Pram but no luck. I can boot to the cd however it doesn't see the HDD. I can boot to an external HDD but I'm not able to mount the original HDD. Disk aid will not repair the HDD. I tried super duper to copy the disc and reinstall but it doesn't see the HDD. The HDD is a SSD drive. I need to at least be able to copy the information from this drive. However I am stuck at this point.
If I use disk utility and the source is my install cd and the destination the HDD will I lose all my information?

OS X Yosemite :: Disk Utility Won't Allow To Reinstall?
Dec 11, 2014After then parade to Yosemite I ran into hard drive issues and my 2012 iMac will no longer boot but I ca boot to Internet Recovery. My latest plan was to do an OS reinstall to an external drive then try to recover items w/ target drive. In any case, when I choose reinstall OSX, it tells me I have to verify with Apple...OK...then continue....then it says select a drive to install OSX on but gives me no selection option? Just a blank white line? Both drives (internal and external) show up and can be accessed via disk utilities.
