How to see mac partitions on Windows 10

Apple HFS+ drivers DO work after 1607 Anniversary Update, they just have problems mounting the drives. You can mount them manually with the risks associated with it. (Personally I have encountered exactly zero bugs/problems in several weeks of hard usage and testing on 3 computers, so I started recommending my method on net. I am writing this warning anyway, as mounting a partition forcibly may still have unforeseen consequences I have yet to face..)

Firstly, make sure you have drivers from 6.0 installed, 6.1 does not have HFS+ drivers. You can reinstall to be sure, or

go to Windows\system32\drivers\ check if AppleHFS.sys and AppleMNT.sys is there. 

Run regedit, go check if "AppleHFS" and "AppleMNT" keys exist in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\"; each should also have some string and dword values in it.

Personally, I would extract these two .sys files from an 6.0 install, google on how to install them via registry tweaks, and make the habit of always using most up-to-date bootcamp drivers. Apart from bug fixing and optimisations, new macs a few years into future will just not function properly on 6.0 drivers.

Reboot after installing your Apple HFS drivers. Nothing will show up on 1607 after reboot, but I would still feel better to install these drivers before we try and mount them.

Secondly, make sure you are not using CoreStorage. I am reasonably certain "read only" HFS driver can't do any harm, but its better to be safe than sorry. 

If you are good to go, you have two options;

Option#1; mount your bootcamp partion via DOS Devices registry edit;

Run regedit, navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/system/CurrentControlSet/Control/Session Manager/DOS Devices/"

Right click->new->add string

Enter your drive letter by adding ":" In "data" type "\Device\HarddiskVolume#", where # will be the volume number of your partition as it would be detected in MS-DOS. In your case it SHOULD be 2, as it is the 2nd partition of disk0. (In MY computer, disk0 has 1 partition, my MacOS partition is 2nd one on disk1, so MY partition number is 3, just count your partitions starting with 1.)

Your registry entry should (provided nothing is changed in 4 months you posted this) show "D:", "REG_SZ" and "\Device\HarddiskVolume2" for name, type and data respectively (assuming D: is the drive letter you want for your macOS partition). 

Never use letter C: or any other drive letter that may contradict with your Windows installation, as this may render your windows unbootable. (Or may not, its just a matter of luck whether windows choses to mount DOS devices first, or its own disk management.) It is (probably) safe to do trial and error on volume #, it won't break anything even if you accidentally select your windows partition, it will just mount it twice with different letters.

Reboot and your MacOS partition should be there. 

Before using, go to properties of your new disk in "This PC" and your "file system" should be HFS and it should report used and free spaces correctly. If it is RAW, never try to reformat, check your AppleHFS.sys install. 

Option#2; use a program that can mount disks via Session Manager (in other words it will make the registry entries for you). 

Download ext2fsd even though you probably have nothing to do with ext2 or linux.

Open Ext2 Volume Manager. In "File System" tab, your macOS partition will show as "HFS". If you installed ext2fsd before succesfully installing bootcamp drivers, it will just show as "RAW". (kind of proving bootcamp drivers DO work)

Right click, select assign drive letter (or change drive letter).

In the pop-up menu, select the drive letter first, then select the tick "Create a permanent MountPoint via Session Manager." It -weirdly- closes the pop-up before you click "OK". (Ext2fsd is a little buggy, you should select drive letter first, then select the tickbox. If you want to change drive letter, I suggest removing the existing one first, then re-add it from scratch)

Reboot, and the macOS partition will be there just like before anniversary update.

In both options, your diskpart or disk management will still show your HFS partition as RAW, (so does minitool partition wizard etc), but it will function normally, and you should be able to confirm it as HFS in properties menu. In analogy, this method tries to define your partition letter like defining a legacy COM or Printer (LPT) port.

How to Create a Bootable Install Drive for macOS High Sierra

Some Mac uses like to create a bootable USB installer drive for macOS High Sierra. A bootable install volume of macOS 10.13 allows users to perform a variety of tasks including formatting and clean installs, updating multiple Macs from the same USB flash drive installer (and without re downloading), and to use as a troubleshooting boot drive should the need arise, amongst other benefits for advanced and more technical users. 

This walkthrough will detail how to make a bootable USB install drive for macOS High Sierra. 

Requirements to Create a macOS High Sierra Bootable USB Installer

To create a functioning macOS High Sierra installer boot drive, you will need the following:

• A blank USB flash drive (16GB or larger is recommended) you don’t mind formatting, this will become the boot installer drive for macOS High Sierra

• A Mac with access to the App Store

• The complete macOS High Sierra installer application downloaded from the Mac App Store(some users end up with an incomplete installer sized at 19MB, you can follow instructions here to get the entire 5GB macOS 10.13 installer if necessary)

Beyond that you’ll just need a bit of patience and a bit of technical know-how or comfort following technical instructions. Making a USB install drive requires the usage of precise syntax at the command line with superuser privileges, using the wrong syntax could lead to unintended data loss.

How to Make a Bootable USB Installer for macOS High Sierra

1. Connect the USB flash drive to the Mac, if you need to format it go ahead and do so
2. Download macOS High Sierra installer application from the App Store* and be sure the complete installer is located in the /Applications/ directory 
3. When the installer has completed downloading, it will automatically launch – quit out of the installer when this occurs
4. Open the “Terminal” application found in /Applications/Utilities/ directory on the Mac
5. Enter the following command syntax at the command line, replacing “UNTITLED” with your USB drive name if necessary:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/UNTITLED && say Boot Installer Complete
6. Confirm the syntax is exactly as written, then hit the RETURN key and enter the administrator password to start making the High Sierra installer drive *

7. Let the installer complete, when finished you will be informed that the process has completed

Once you have created the USB boot installer drive for macOS High Sierra, you can either launch it immediately to install macOS High Sierra on the current Mac, reboot and startup from the USB installer drive, or eject it and use it on another Mac. 

* Note: if you are getting a “command not found” error and you are certain your syntax is correct, be sure to check the file size of the “Install macOS High Sierra.app” as found in the /Applications folder. If the file size of the High Sierra installer is not over 5GB then you have the incomplete installer and will need to download the complete macOS High Sierra installer application as described here in order to create a bootable installer drive.

Booting from the macOS High Sierra USB Installer Drive

With the newly created macOS High Sierra USB installer drive connected to the Mac, reboot the computer. Immediately on reboot, start holding down the “OPTION” (ALT) key to load the boot menu. Select the High Sierra installer at this screen.

Once booted from the USB drive you can proceed with installing macOS High Sierra, using the Disk Utility tools to format or erase a volume, work with Time Machine, and other similar tasks.

If you had previously created a boot installer for the High Sierra beta you may notice the syntax is different for createinstallmedia is different with the final version, part of that is to accommodate the new file name of the application installer, and the remainder removes the necessity of the –applicationpath flag and directive. 

Keep in mind that macOS High Sierra can only be installed onto supported hardware, if you’re uncertain whether or not a particular computer supports the release you can check this list of macOS High Sierra compatible Macs.

Do you know of another approach to making a macOS High Sierra bootable install drive? Do you have an easier method, or do you have any particular tricks related to this process? Let us know in the comments.

How to delete a file immediately in OS X

This was a feature I was looking for a long time. Anybody coming to OS X from windows misses shift+del option. Now we have it in OS X as well. Starting from El Capitan (10.11) you can do alt+command+delete (⌥+⌘+delete) to immediately delete something. Moreover individual deletion option came to trash can. Good work Apple keep doing it!

Auto-hide dock with a keyboard shortcut

I like mac os dock, but sometimes when I need more of my screen I hide it. Before (I don't know up to which version exactly) one can change dock properties directly from apple icon on top left. Not anymore :(. Now to do that you need to open System preferences, select dock and select or unselect "Automatically hide and show the Dock". As you can see it is a lot of steps. Luckily there is a shortcut for that and it is command+option+D.
