Can't find Bootcamp partition after installing Yosemite

So here is my new thread regarding to a question I asked to user Loner T: I've been reading some of your posts about the bootcamp problem after upgrading to Yosemite, but I couldn't figure my problem cause it wasn't the same as the one I was reading. This is what my Disk Utility shows after I followed your instructions, could you please help me? Thanks!

I entered on the Terminal what you told me to in the other thread, which was:

Can you start a new thread (this will help the OP and us, both) and post this GPT output and output from the following commands in the new thread?

This is what my Disk Utility shows after I followed your instructions, could you please help me? Thanks!


Was your GPT4 entry modified in any way after the Yosemite upgrade?


Did you use Testdisk to locate the NTFS header? If yes, do you have the same information (output of the same commands) after the Yosemite upgrade and before getting into this state?

Hi, I'm sorry I really don't know what my GPT4 was before, this is the second time I've heard about it and I actually don't know what it means.


The following is the output of the GPT command

1067278336 397869056 4 GPT part - EBD0A0A2-B9E5-4433-87C0-68B6B72699C7

Each of these parts has an ordinal position. They are referred to as GPT 1, GPT 2, GPT 3, GPT 4 and so on.

I have just installed Testdisk, but i don't know how to use the program, how should I locate the NTFS header? Thank you for your help.

You may want to look at Bootcamp disk0s4 gone after Yosemite update as an example.


Testdisk scans your disk to locate partition headers which may not match the GPT [1...n] entries and show 'lost' partitions.


There is also a http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step guide, which helps. Yosemite may have caused some issues. If you have attempted to resize your Windows partition using Disk Utility and/or a third-party partitioning tool, Yosemite can get confused and create entries that cause Windows not to work properly.
