[QUOTE="dustinhuman, post: 1601033, member: 331764"] Thanks for the link but that doesn't work; that is just the normal method for deleting a partition. Also, I didn't name the partitions; OS X did that. I'm hoping these screenshots will help: The first image is what I see upon opening Disk Utility. [IMG]http://imgur.com/N1za7T6[/IMG] The next two images show that clicking either partion doesn't let you erase the partition by clicking the minus button. You can see that the plus and minus are both greyed out and not clickable. [IMG]http://imgur.com/miu2FZo[/IMG] [IMG]http://imgur.com/JxjqT1n[/IMG] The last two images are just what I see when I click on the two sub-directories(if that's the proper term).
