    Hi,

    I have one drive, with three partitions (one of which has bootcamp) and 32 gig of missing space after i deleted a drive. I want to revert to two drives, one apple, one bootcamp.

    Best way to do safely>? Thanks;)

    Never ever ever trust partitioning tools that claim they won't to any damage to drives. Always always backup everything first.

    I have no experience with BootCamp partitions, so I don't know what your best route is.

    Just make sure you back up before you do anything.

    Hopefully someone else can be more help...

    I havn't done this in a while, but if my memory serves correctly... (and if I'm wrong sorry)

    I'm guessing that your Disk Utility window looks something like this(image attached), but with free space at the bottom.

    So you should just be able to grab the bottom right hand corner of each partition and drag down.
