I've cloned my Mac hard drive (250 GB) to a bigger one (500 GB) using HDClone. I saw that it has partitioned the hard drive, so I tried to extend the partition, but it doesn't work. It said it was completed, but nothing changed. When I try to extend it to something between 250 GB and 500 GB, I get this error:
Partition failed with the error

Mediakit reports partition (map) too small.

I've tried to partition the drive from Unibeast, but I get the same errors. Can anyone help me to solve this without losing my data and (eventually) without having to reformat my drive?
 
It won't let me extend the partition over the unallocated space :S

EDIT: For some reason, it worked now by using just Disk Utility. Thanks for the help ;)
