Problem: I can no longer boot Boot Camp partition (BCP) running Windows 10 Pro 1703. I am also unable to start Parallels 12.2.0 Virtual Machine based on the same BCP macOS side. Problem occurred suddenly without warning. I cannot isolate any action from user side that could have led to this situation. I did not try to resize partition. I would like to boot from internal BCP as I was able to a few hours ago if possible. I do have a backup saved disc image (WinClone 6) from a few weeks back and a backup I made after the issue began. How to format a drive for Mac and PC compatibility Posted by Ant on March 11th, 2012| 43 Comments If you have an external hard drive or USB flash drive that you’d like to use on both Macs and Windows PCs, choosing the right file system to format the drive can be confusing. I would like to avoid a solution where I have to clone BCP to external SSD and transfer it back to notebook. Verify disk0 seems ok. ![]() You should be able to get the install method by entering sudo fdisk /dev/disk0. If you get one entry it's probably GPT. If you get four entries it's probably MBR. On a MBP 2016 usually (often?) the GPT method is used. Check some answers of. He is the specialist for BC related stuff here, wasn't seen for 8 months though. Hint: please post text output (like the result of verifyDisk) as formatted text. Tax software torrents for mac. Then it's much easier to copy and paste stuff like UUIDs etc. – Jul 5 '17 at 19:17 •. I was able to resolve macOS Sierra error about the bless tool by using the pictured setting on WinClone 6.0.3. I did not restore from winclone backup but rather just made my BCP bootable as an EFI instead of legacy BIOS drive. For some reason macOS started to view BCP as an unbootable legacy BIOS drive. My guess is installing Paragon suite of tools like NTFS, Hard Disk Manager, and ExtFS for Mac had this sudden and unintended result during the runtime environment. To prevent BSOD sysprep appears to be necessary when restoring WinClone backups on external drives. Once you are on Mac OS X (i.e. El Capitan) and one day you meet someone with removable drive (USB flash) asking you do download something from either corporate network share (file server) or straight from the Globe Internet and offload this data to that USB. No way here, you actually locked down with your OS X to write anything into NFTS. One of the option to unlock such a weird fail of Apple is actually to use third-party! There are few cute things I'd love to highlight: • Ability to read old file systems (i.e. FAT 16, FAT 32). Paragon marks them as 'Others' & File system shows up as 'MS-DOS (FAT-16)'; • Verify (CHKDSK), Erase (format and set file system), Set as startup (this helps me very much to test my Cloudberry bootable USB drives). This super breakthrough feature 'Set Custom Icon';-) • Nice to have option to work with Hibernated Windows (when you have flash drive with written data until your Windows went hibernated). • Does not really annoy sitting in top right tool bar of your El Capitan (lots of vendors thinking they need to put their icon with no need). Paragon just did not do that! Install Paragon Software and make init configurations Ok! The installation of the product is not really a big deal! Really straight forward and intuitive! Once the product installed, for further settings go to your «System preferences» and find out «NTFS for Mac OS X» (for vanilla El Capitan it should be the last icon in overall section). Find your volumes and start management In the main first tab the most of management actions you do: «Mount / Unmount», «Erase (Format)», «Verify»! I also like the fact it sees and allows me to format my volumes to native HFS file system! Additional settings and activation Windows hibernate handler. Nice to see and know that Paragon seems to care about this Windows weird case! License activation is really 1-2-3! Nice product though!
