When trying to resize my SSD for Bootcamp under High Sierra and the File system is APFS, I get this error:
APFS Container Resize error code is 49153
A quick Google search and it appears I'm not the only one.
If anyone here has a solution, that would be quite welcomed by many!
If you have Time Machine enabled, it might be making snapshots that prevent you from resizing the APFS container.
1) Go to Time Machine preferences, and stop Automatic backups.
2) Remove all local snapshots using Terminal.
You can list them with tmutil listlocalsnapshots /
And delete them with
tmutil deletelocalsnapshotsOr you can delete all of them with: tmutil thinlocalsnapshots / 9999999999999999

Shrinking APFS data structures
APFS Container Resize error code is 49187
A problem occurred while resizing APFS Container structures.
Operation failed…
Note: I have APFS partition (400GB) and BOOTCAMP (100GB).
Please help
What helped in my case was using the terminal as described here: https://www.macobserver.com/tips/deep-dive/resize-your-apfs-container/
For me the progressbar stopped at 47% for quite some time, but you can check that it is making progress in the disk utility. You will see the size of the new partition increase there.
It was definitely the Time Machine snapshot. Thanks @Marty-18RUS! Re: APFS Container Resize error code is 49153
