Thought I'd my experience because while this is an old thread, it still comes up pretty high on the google searches. But I have to say that my experience was flawless and the $19.99 was TOTALLY worth it.

I have seen others have problems due to FAT partitions and matching versions of Mac OS with a compatible version of Camptune.
I realize that I might be a slightly different situtation than most with a new/clean machine already formatted to NTFS. The whole process (front to back) took about 15 minutes. I just installed CampTune X (through a digital download), installed the product, and changed my partition size. I did some searching online before beginning the process and I'm so glad I did. before going futher down the path of getting my machine "all set up" and ready to use.
I felt I had made a mistake to not make my Bootcamp partition larger.īecause I had just bought the computer (and had only invested a day of my time) I figured that I would bit the bullet and go throught the process of killing my Bootcamp partition, recreating it, reinstalling Windows, etc. Within hours I had second thoughts because I will use this machine primarily as a Windows machine. 250GB for the Mac and Windows/Bootcamp partitions).

Since the original post is from 2011, I though I would offer the experience I had recently with Camptune.ĬONTEXT: Yesterday, I bought a new MacBook Pro (Retina, 13"). Hope this saves someone the headaches I had! third time was a charm! Worked perfectly and both partitions are now humming away nicely. (there was some evidence from postings online that this is a problem) Then, in Mac OS disk utility, I ran repair disk. In Mac OS disk utility partition tab, I stretched the Mac partition to include all of the space between the 2 partitions. second try generated a 'cross-linked files' error. First try to resize the partition generated a Disk i/o error. (I have read lots of unfortunate stories from people that didnt backup before using CampTune so back it up and save yourself.) CampTune includes a nifty little backup tool for the paranoid folks like myself.
CampTune requires that you burn a cd then boot from that cd. after purchase, product key didnt work but Paragon corrected after 24 hours waiting So, in case anyone else has the same challenges, here's my $0.02: In the end, it was well worth the $20 but there were headaches along the way. When I discovered I couldn't increase the size of my BC partition without deleting and reinstalling it, I was pretty desperate to try anything that would not create the days of work involved. After reading lots of threads about CampTune, I thought I would post my experience in case anyone else tries it.
