The danish public service channels from “Danmarks Radio” can be streamed and viewed directly from QuickTime, iTunes, VLC player etc. on both Mac and Windows by downloading a few channel files (.mov). This of course also opens the option to stream and view the channels in Frontrow on Mac:

All you have to do is to download the files and add them to your library:

Boot Camp: Create Partition Error – Files cannot be moved

Klaus Kjeldsen — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 21:11:09 +0000

Recently I was about to install a Windows 7 beta using Boot Camp on my iMac, but it did not succeed due to an error. I was setting the Windows partition to 80 GB with plenty of free space available.

Then I got this error, namely “The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved”:

But I did not like the idea of formatting my hard drive due to fix the issue, and make Boot Camp work. However, I found an other solution to the problem, namely installing tool to defragment the hard drive. Defragmentation is not something you usually do on a Mac, but here it came in handy. I found these two tool to do the trick:

iDefrag (I used this)

Drive Genius

What the tools basically do, is that they are able to moved the files, which for some reason is blocking the Boot Camp Partitioning.

HFSExplorer is a free application that can read Mac-formatted hard disks and disk images. It can read the file systems HFS (Mac OS Standard), HFS+ (Mac OS Extended) and HFSX (Mac OS Extended with case sensitive file names).

HFSExplorer allows you to browse your Mac volumes with a graphical file system browser, extract files (copy to hard disk), view detailed information about the volume and create disk images from the volume. HFSExplorer can also read most .dmg disk images created on a Mac, including zlib / bzip2 compressed images and AES-128 encrypted images. It supports the partition schemes Master Boot Record, GUID Partition Table and Apple Partition Map natively.
