Click the gray diamond-shaped icon, and click 'Restart in Mac OS' from the pop-up menu. Then, confirm your choice to reboot to Mac OS X and give the computer about a minute to make the switch. If you're in Mac OS.
I recently installed a full licensed windows 10 home edition through boot camp. I have a MacBook Pro 2105.
I cannot get back to Mac OS X. I've tried multiple times restarting/powering off computer and pressing down the option key. It does give me the icon to click to switch to Mac but every time I click on it, it restarts and gives me a symbol with a circle and slash (indicating it can't/ won't perform the function). And the computer still windows mode. I've also tried the icon panel in the bottom right which I can open up bootcamp control panel.
It gives me a choice to restart in Mac or windows. I choose Mac and the same thing happens. When it restarts, I get that circle with a slash and I am still in windows. Pleas help if you have an answer.
If you're in Mac OS X, you can switch to the Windows partition using the Startup Disk utility within System Preferences. In the Startup Disk, choose the 'Windows on BOOTCAMP' partition, and click 'Restart.'
Then, confirm your choice to reboot to Windows and give the computer about a minute to make the switch. If the Mac was powered off, you can choose which partition to boot before the Mac selects for you. To do this, press the Option key on the Mac while it's on the blank white boot screen. Within a couple of seconds, the Mac should present the two partitions to you on the screen.
Use the arrow keys to select a partition, and press Enter to boot to it. This Option key feature is available either when booting from a powered-off state or if you're rebooting from Windows. Ready for lots more information about Boot Camp? Switch on over to the next page.
