Or you can try them so that you can boot either way, BIOS or UEFI, but then you need a copy of the BCD on the Windows partition (for legacy) and not just in the EFI partition (for UEFI). If you use the boot manager and see two entries for your boot medium, select the one with 'UEFI' in the description string. This may require using your firmwares built-in boot manager or going into the setup utility and disabling BIOS/CSM/legacy support. If you're booting using UEFI instead of Legacy (BIOS), then I think you should skip the /fixmbr and /fixboot options. Boot the rEFInd medium youve just prepared.

Yes, repair this with the Windows installer. I already removed the partition where Ubuntu 14.04 resided. Now, the Mac boot-loader is messed up and I can only boot the M ac OS X pressing the option key and choosing, I suppose, the EFI partition where reFind is located. If you got bootmgfw.efi from the EFI partition, then the BCD would be there already. but the installation failed I think, because an interaction between reFind boot loader and GRUB. You didn't say if you found it, and you didn't say where you got bootmgfw.efi from. You read the thread I linked, then you would have tried looking for the BCD.
