Hi,
I'm running OSX Mountain lion on the 2012 13" Macbook Air.
I run bootcamp on my mac in order to play some old windows games. My windows partion was full, so I decided to reduce my OSX partion by 10GB and create another NTFS partion for windows to use. I did this and when I tried to boot in windows, the black screen showed no boot drive found, please insert drive and press enter which is rubbish. I can't use my windows USB to repair the installation on my mac as it doesn't show.
I tried to copy the files from my windows partion using mountain lion, from Bootcamp (NTFS) to my external drive (Fat32). When I try move the folder in My Documents, i get the error;
The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "N001_user00002.package" can't be read or written. (Error -36).
Once I get this error my system works for about a minute before finder crashes and disables my system I then have to force shut down the mac and re-start.
All I want is to move these files! I've managed to do it on my actual Dell windows PC and there's no problem copying the files. I've tried a Terminal tool I found on the internet which should let me read/write on NTFS but that doesn't seem to have worked (it was meant for snow leopard).
Does anyone know how I can either repair my windows installation, or get this data of my Macbook SSD!!
Thanks
Chris
