I want an exact image but system image recovery wont work. No, you are on your own here, Winclone may do what you want but requires OS X to store the Windows image. Good luck, unfortunately there is no support for what you are about to do, post back but there may be no help available. Well can you recommend a good program to back up my windows partition for windows? I just want mac gone. There are no good windows backup programs, that is your problem, I can't advise you which one to use.
Google is your friend. If you want to play games then a cheap windows laptop is the best choice, if you don't want to run OS X sell the Mac and buy one. Question: Q: What happens if I delete bootcamp? More Less. Communities Get Support. Click Format. To confirm that you wish to format the partition, click OK.
To continue, click Next. The installer will copy Windows files and install any features and updates required. Step 7: Configure Windows 10 After Windows restarts, you'll need to do some configuration.
Microsoft's digital assistant, Cortana, will help guide you through this process. If you are wearing headphones, remove them while your computer is restarting. Until you can install the Boot Camp support software, you may not be able to control the volume of Cortana with the volume keys on your computer. Step 8: Create your Windows administrator account Note:. The Windows administrator account you create should not be an account you use for general use of this computer.
Step 9: Install support software Once Windows has started may take some time , the Boot Camp installer will walk you through installing Apple's support software. To begin the process, click Next. Read and accept the license agreement, and click Install. All the Apple-specific software you need to run Windows efficiently on your computer will be installed.

Getting closer and closer with each day.
I read some comments that said that I should let the virtual machine restart and finish setting up on the machine. Drive is properly formatted, been trying for 5 hours and im starting to become desperate.
Did someone get it to work on a MacBook Air? It installs correctly and USB mouse works but not all the hardware. I did not try to install BootCamp native on the main SSD, if that is not working its a support case for apple.
I also was not able to get any other drivers. Installation succes but after i shutdown and on the macbook and hold the option button theres no other drive. Only macintosh hd. Please help me to fix. Thank you. Mac log will show and and box telling me that i need to reinstall the mac OS. Alternatively, if you have access to a Windows PC you could format the drives using it. There are errors Ive found and fixed with trial and error with the set up as written up, but it is quite dated after all.
I wonder if this would work with a partition in the internal drive. I have a SSD drive which is not the original Apple one it was too small but the new one does not support Bootcamp. I wonder if this procedure may help me install Windows 10 in a different partition of internal disk without using bootcamp. Can someone tell me the purpose of installing and running Windows from an external drive instead of internal drive? If I use an external drive for Windows instead, will Windows run quicker when connected to the Macbook?
You might not have a ton of space on your internal drive, or for me I have 2 computers and I only use Windows for specific software, so it makes sense to be able to carry it with me.
If you have an external SSD, and your internal drive is a hard disk, I think it should be faster. I tried with the thumb drive still connected, and got a busy error.
Solution was to use disk utility and eject just the partition disk2s1 , leaving the drive disk2 alone. Even after reconnecting to my network it just boots into OS X. This worked finally. I have to try multiple times with different hits and tries. For my case, I am writing down what i did, if it helps anyone here. For some reason, after downloading for 30 minutes and at an end, the Boot Camp Assistant gave error unable to save windows support software on selected drive.
Downloaded it locally and then manually copied it to my USB external drive. Failed: When Creating bootcamp. Solution: Make sure the External Drive on whom you want to install windows is ejected and run the command in terminal again. Failed: After bootcamp. Solution: After running command on terminal for rawdisk bootcamp.
Failed: I was using some old Win10 ISO lying around and it was not booting on mac after all steps and installation. Failed: After completing all steps, installed bootcamp drivers on windows, rebooted couple of times, everything worked except I am unable to open Bootcamp control panel on windows 10 to configure touchpad click and sensitivity etc. Solution: I was not able to find its solution so far. Maybe its because bootcamp expects the installation of windows to be on MAC drive rather then on external drive.
Any help in solving this problem will greatly help. This worked for me after trial and error with some of the updates on the procedure. However… after successfully making everything work I went greedy.
I created a G: approx. Make sure External drive is ejected. I had same error. Mac mounted the drive automatically after running bootcamp. When i restart my mac, the external drive is not shown as an option to boot from — how can i fix this? Anyone know how to get the EFT partition in there? There are many, many posts below in comments for that exact issue, all the way back to the earliest comment.
I even left help about it a couple or few times. Good Luck! Be sure to follow this step posted above, as I missed it:. Hi, thanks for the tutorial! Does it change other parts of the process? Any help is appreciated! Hi, you have to write bootcamp. Great jobs. I followed the procedure and now windows 10 pro works perfectly in my iMac 21,5 late Thank you very much.
T5 is good because it installs the smoothest to that SSD. Here is what I do and what I suggest anyone do: I first read through all the comments below, all of them, right back to the time it was originally posted because the writer answers in many of those and added additional instructions or explanations. I printed off the original instructions and made notes on each section where comments by others mattered or changed it.
Then I attempted to do it. I ran into some things as most people will with so many different models and peripheral specs, but they were easily resolved by either the comments below, or a bit of trial and error. Three days is the longest the first install took, the second one was an hour and a half. It does work. But I think you need to pay close attention to many comments and questions below and adjust the instructions accordingly.
It is well worth that effort and extra time. Please help. Did you ensure that the external drive with Windows has the EFT partition too? That is what is needed to see it as a boot selection. I got everything completed, Windows is running on my external drive, but installing the drivers is where my issue lies. When I run the setup app from my USB the setup seems to be going fine, and then the screen goes black. When I move my cursor to wake up the screen its really dim. Tinkering around in the Startup Utility gives me the Bless Tool issue it is not a blessing.
It probably was the EFT boot drive. It said EFT Boot. Have you tried selecting that at boot to see what happens? Click through install as usual and click the custom install. Delete all your partitions. Click new. It should create 4 partitions including a EFI partition. Continue install. Quit install before restarting. Restart mac.
Hit options key. Your drive should show up. It takes about 3 hours but it worked perfectly. Bluetooth is no good. This is temporarily needed during setup. Sri, if you are performing the above 9to5mac. After step 8, this is where you split the main partition in two with a GB partition.
Then in step 22 this is where you choose the EFI boot partition and the Windows partition. The other partition you create can be used however… at least in theory!
Do the Apple bootcamp drivers have to be downloaded to the flash drive every time you start over? When we use Vbox to install windows to the external drive we are no longer using the Apple BootCamp application.
I have been at this for over a week now and have repeated the steps over a dozen times. Well over. I had a similar problem on Macos 9.
It was the same with the Bochs emulator. Just straight Usb adapter cable from the back of iMac to the bare hard drive WD 40gb made in What am i doing wrong? Heres the the thing, when using Bootcamp as normal, it need a single partitioned disk. Bootcamp itself creates the windows boot partition and installs the needed drivers and draws a map right to the boot partition so when you put in the windows install disk it sees it. Does Bootcamp boot the disk or the Mac Os itself? VBox does not extract the files to the external disk.
You do. When at the Win 10 desktop you would open the USB explorer and then find and run the exe to extract. But … Windows may not see the USB you do create, as in my case. Macs can read FAT32 though. So you need the USB formatted from a Windows machine first. Either with an existing one you have or waiting until Windows is installed then make that your first step with your new system: format the USB and reboot to Mac.
Otherwise Windows might not recognize the USB and will ask if you want to format it. Again, new quirk with formatting in Disk Utility? A simple download the support files. Bootcamp is not used to install them or do anything else it usually does when using your native iOS drive as target.
Think of Bootcamp as just another file explorer tool in this situation. Open Bootcamp, ignoring the window and what it asks or tells you and select from the menu at top the action to download the Windows Support Files. Yawn… takes a bit. Any hint on how to get closer? Too bad. I think this because when i enable efi in vbox and start it hangs in the windows startup screen 5 or so seconds into the very start of install.
Wnen i dont enable efi it installs and no boot on mac. The only thing i havent tried is letting vbox finish the install instead of shutting it rtght off. It already has a direct line to the drive. Ray and Helmi: I ran into these same two things. They are buried in my lengthy replies below so may have been missed. But … you DO need to format it from the Windows side once that is up and running.
As a FAT Then switch over to Mac OS and install the bootcamp files, then reboot to Windows and all will be ready to run. Should be the same and for most people they certainly are. But for some people there is a significant difference. Same with drivers. But … for some systems or uses, the driver has key ramifications, such as in this instructional. So go with the Brand driver before starting this process. Mine was Samsung If a new drive, do not use the one that comes with the empty drive.
Ignore them. It is to present to the OS a clean slate so to speak when it reformats it later with the correct driver, without anything funky on the drive or any manufacturer specific formatting style.
It will now create the EFI this time around because the drivers are now correctly ready. For me having the drive formatted initially to wipe it clean was important before installing the new drivers in the first place. Then with the correct drivers installed, Mac iOS was then able to reformat it the second time with the EFI as it should. I have the exact same problem as Helmi. The SSD already has the latest firmware installed.
JuJu… you mentioned downloading the latest drivers. Are you referring to the drive firmware or the drivers the Mac uses to communicate with the drive? For the Samsung T5 there is only one download and that updates the firmware. Where did you get your driver, please? You are correct, the original instructions above said nothing about the GUID but he replies below in several places correcting everyone to do it as GUID.
I know he replied to Jared on August 28 and to Daniel on September 24, and a few other places. I was tenacious until I found a link for just the driver alone.
It is there, they always are, but are not readily noticeable or easy to find. Found it. For Samsung T5 however, I downloaded the firmware but did not install. In Mac you can look at application files by showing the package content in Finder, by right clicking on it and selecting show content.
I only wanted the driver, and I hate being bamboozled into installing bloatware that the manufacturers wrongly assume will be helpful for me. So by digging into app files you can find the driver specific file. Again, WD is more humane and offer just the driver to download on their website in addition to their bloatware. Thus, the shell game.
Windows then recognized it when I returned and all Bootcamp drivers were successfully installed. Exactly, I see that now. Not done looking yet. The drives manufactured application was surveillance and video storage. Heres the thing though, the mac can write to the boot sectors on it.
I have booted from it and wiped my main drive clean on a couple occasions. When I reboot holding down the option key it shows up on the list along with the main drive and the flash drive with my OSX installers on it, When I had Win XP on the main drive it showed up.
When bootcamp installs Windows it only erases the disk its going to install on , not the whole drive. This is a nifty trick. I know it will work.
Although it installs and runs just fine within the Vbox emulation. It may not contain all the necessary drivers. Or,I may be shutting the terminal down too early or too late. Part of the fun of learning. If you had a new drive coming, do what I started to do. Then I reformat it — cleanse it so to speak, of all previously installed software and specialized formatting.
Then I can dig through the files I copied off of it for the actual driver. NOT the firmware or software, etc. Dig until you find only the driver itself. I install that on my Mac, regardless if it thinks it needs it or not. Once Windows is installed and you get to the desktop, your Bootcamp USB will install all drivers you need.
I found the same problem. The virtualbox was showing a black screen when trying to run with EFI enabled. My apologies to all for my typo in all of my replies. If the moderator could go into my replies and change those acronyms, it might save confusion for others. My MacBook Air on Mojave tried installing windows 10 October update and April update and it keeps bringing me to the recovery screen to enter a password saying to unlock the disk. I am able to select the EFI boot and this is what happens.
When I enter in my password it just restarts to Mac OS. The external drive is a WD Passport. Followed all the suggestions with enabling efi. Any suggestions? I had that happen to me too. Each time gets easier and I went from it taking two days for just my first attempt to get me to where you are, to my fourth fresh restart taking only 40 minutes start to finish, sitting on the Windows desktop all set up and perfect. The results and wrinkles of the install can be random because the series of steps we go through working with the innards of a virtual software, a virtual machine, AND the Mac OS, add in the code for a new OS on the VM, and then the timing of certain things that go on during the install and on the Mac side, and the several boot-reboot mount-unmount, episodes….
Unexpected results happen and it takes some start-overs to get a seamless and smooth performance. And today my son came home to tell me again how incredibly fast and flawless it is working even running all the CAD programs. It takes way more time to troubleshoot the recovery issue than it does to just start over from scratch a few times until it gets it right. And when it does, it looks exactly like the instructions say it will. I realized with the Samsung T5 that it is very important to first install the drivers for the SSD or HDD on the Mac side and not trust whatever automatic install of drivers it does for you when you connect it.
Ours is Mojave. Wrinkles happen that fresh correct drivers iron out. I know nondetails why.. You HAVE to do this. And one of the drives was already erased and formatted anyway so I lost the driver. I was able to download just the drivers from their sites and installed them.
Set the aside and ready to install but not yet. But now It was always created before going into VirtualBox and VirtualBox identified it correctly too. I had to reformat again and reinstall the bootcamp drivers from the Mac side again.
So I reformatted and redownloaded to the USB. Took longer than the Windows install. Lol Then Windows had no problem. My explanation of the Bootcamp USB wasnt quite right, but it is explained below in my post on January 26, pm. Thank you for the tutorial Tom. I need help with the name of my SSD. I still need to get my bootcamp drivers loaded to my newly booted Windows system.
Next, recover data from Macintosh HD and other volumes. Once all the data from the Mac storage drive is recovered, format the storage drive and reinstall macOS. Next, restore all the recovered data back to their respective locations on your Mac. The method remains the same for other macOS versions as well. But, remember to keep a backup of the Boot Camp Partition on an external backup drive by using File History or other ways to safeguard your valuable data.
It can also recover data from an external NTFS drive. Moreover, it can recover data from a non-booting, corrupt, or crashed Mac. Vishal is a data recovery expert Stellar. He addresses data loss scenarios on a Mac. He intends to help people solve their macOS problems.
Besides, Vishal prefers to read about astronomy and autobiography, and his favorite is Steve Jobs - The man who thought different written by Karen Bluementhal. If you see your lost data in preview then it will help you to recover deleted partition data from the storage drive.
