If you have removed the Bootcamp partition then as far as I know you will have to repartition with Disk Utility and restore.

Take a backup of your 500GB partition and while you do that I'm sure someone who has done this before will be along to advise (I haven't, don't run Bootcamp)...

i have a time mc backup. when looking at the 750gb disk with disk utility 500gb is the mac partition the space below is i assume 250gb that was the boot partition. i have tried to resize the mac partition to the full 750 gb in disk utility but this didn't work, would that be because it was window format partition ,
how can i delete the 250gb partition

Once OSX is running on the 500GB partition, run bootcamp and remove the 250GB partition and it'll take back the space.
