Hold the option key while booting and select your OS X partition and press enter. When installing Windows, it sets itself as default boot volume so when in OS X, open System Preferences and go to Startup Disk and select your OS X partition and click reboot
Along with what Hellhammer said, if you install the apple bootcamp utilities in windows, it will give you a start up disk control panel, where you can set the start up disk.
Likewise if you want to ensure that OSX is the default start up OS, just choose that preference (in osx) and select the OSX partition.
Hi,
I tried Windows 7 for 10 minutes, didn't like it so decided to uninstall it straight away. Went into Boot Camp Assistant and deleted the partition.
The problem is that every time I restart the MacBook Pro, it tries to boot from the Windows partition (which doesn't exist anymore!), so I have to press the Option key and select the Mac partition...
How can I change the boot options so that it boots from the only existing one, the Mac partition?
Go to system preferences select the preference pane startup disk then you need to unlock the little bottom lock then select the mac os startup disk and restart
Wow, serious, buddy. Use punctuations.
So in short:
System Preferences > (System) > Startup Disk.
Here you can simply select which disk your system chooses to boot from by default. Restart your machine to accept the changes.
If you aren't logged in as administrator, you have to unlock the pane by clicking the lock on the bottom left of the pane. If you are logged in as administrator, this isn't necessary.
lol sorry typed it on an Ipod touch and could be bothered to use them
