You'll need to boot into Internet Recovery or from a USB flash drive (if you created one) and reinstall OS X from scratch. Attempting to re-size a Boot Camp partition doesn't work. You need to nuke the Windows install and start from scratch with the partition size you want.

Hi saturnotaku,

thx for your advice. now i totally install from scratch:mad:
 
If you are just looking to resize your bootcamp partition then I recommend winclone to back it up (so you don't have to re-install windows).

As for resizing, if you don't have the recovery partition, enter into the internet recovery and reinstall OS X as mentioned.
