Can't boot into Bootcamp partition anymore? Hi, everyone. After using Disk Utility to resize my MacOS partition (without doing anything to the Windows partition), I can no longer boot into my Bootcamp partition. Disk Utility still detects it, and nothing appears to have changed, but I can't boot into it anymore. It doesn't appear in the Startup Manager, and switching to it using the Startup Disk utility in System Preferences results in a white screen for a couple of minutes after rebooting, and then a black screen with "No bootable devices found. Please insert boot disk and press any key." on it. I have no idea what could have possibly caused this, as I didn't try to resize or mess with the Windows partition at all. Please help! My MacBook: 13-inch early 2011 MacBook Pro Mac OS X version: High Sierra version 10.13.6 Windows version: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit

Bootcamp Partition not bootable after adding new partition disk utility Dear support team, I only add a new partition in Mac OS, and didn't touch the bootcamp partition at all. but now I can't start the bootcamp. this is what I have tried so far: update the OS to macOS Sierra 10.12.6 Bootcamp assistant is already version 6, but has no other option but to remove the bootcamp drive. I try to update the MBR with below step: disk -e /dev/disk0 setpid 4 07 flag 4 write But this doesn't work. but the bootcamp partition is working find in MacOS and can see all the files well. when I restart and press alt, I can see 2 boot option (macOS and windows), but the windows is just showing black screen. not even the initial windows logo) I check all the other similar Q&A (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8293181 and https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251214564 and few others. but this 2 suggest different steps: gdisk or parted. I am not sure with my specific cases what is the right step.

Bootcamp No Bootable Device Found So, I have been trying to install Windows on my girlfriends Macbook Pro 2012 with Mojave as well on the other half of the drive. So I used Boot Camp Assistant using a USB device and finally got to the part where you partition the drive and you allocate space for the partition. It then rebooted and then a black screen with no bootable device... press any key to continue type of thing. I did some research and this is where it was suppose to boot to the windows side but it did not do that. The Mac side boots fine but just trying to figure out how to finish this process. I tried to do the commands from other people with similar problem from responses with LonerT but I didn't get too far as I really have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to the Terminal.

Are you using a USB2 Flash drive as the Windows Installer or a physical DVD?

Is it a USB2 flash drive? Other USB devices like HDD or USB3 devices are not supported.
