Hi Josh Right, I'm with you now. No, the two are independent applications although yes, you can access Disk Utility via the menu structure from within the recovery tool, just as you can from within the Mac OS X installer utility. But, if it's too much hassle to go to the Utilities folder to access disk utility, how about just using the Mac OS X Finder shortcut, "Command+Shift+U", then hitting "D" which will highlight Disk Utility. Then just open it by pressing either Command+O or Command+Down-Arrow.
Like Windows in some respects, there are several ways of doing these things with Mac OS X.

You can also access it, though, in the utilities folder. When you menntioned the recovery tool, I thought you meant using disc utility in that. Maybe you didn't, :) On 8/2/12, Gordon Smith <gor...@mac-access.net> wrote: > Josh > > I'm not quite sure what this was in reply too. The below doesn't quite seem > to make sense to me.
