Resizing existing partitions on an external USB2 HDD in Mac OS?
Hello.
Mac OS (Mountain Lion v10.8.5 & Sierra v10.12.1)'s Disk Utility won't let me resize 2 existing partitions (FAT32 [datas and sharing with other OSes like Windows] & encrypted HFS+ [Time Machine + other datas]). I wanted to make its FAT32 partition smaller & HFS+ partition bigger without losing data, redoing from scratch, etc. It doesn't seem to let me. Does its Disk Utility not let me do that like in Linux and Windows? Thank you in advance. -- Quote of the Week: "The fact that we can't easily foresee clues that would betray an intelligence a million millennia farther down the road suggests that we're like ants trying to discover humans.
