• HP Pavilion Notebook PC g7: recovery system is grayed out/off in HP Recovery Manager

  I want to perform a clean installation on my laptop, but when I run the HP Recovery Manager, the option 'system recover' is grayed out, alias disabled. It contains a message: (disabled: recovery partition is deleted).

  At least, I think that's it, cause looks like a bad translation from English to Dutch.

  Does anyone know how can I perform a clean installation? Preferably, I would like that the copy of the "minimum valuation of installation' I want things too little stay possible. I already made backups and put them on the cloud, so no worries there.

  When I go to the "Computer management" window-> storage-> disk management, there are several volumes, a virtual disk C and G included. There is also a recovery volume, although I can't seem to do anything with it. I can not "reactivate", which is grayed out as well.

  Hello @GillesDV,

  Thanks for the quick response!

  If this area is grayed out, then perhaps the recovery Partitions have been deleted?  If this is the case, then the only way to recovery the laptop would be through the use of a recovery media.  Unfortunately, there is no option of recovery media available for your product on the HP site.  If you are able to get a drive in Windows 7 or Windows 8, you should be able to use it to recover the laptop.  You can also try to clean install Windows 10.  You can use the following resources to help you, if necessary: How to Clean 10 of Windows Installer (not a HP support Web site).

  I hope this helps.

  Have a great weekend!

• Settings of the user interface in the preferences grayed out

  I'm a Super Administrator and administrator of the workspace and still I can not for queues or UI settings in the preferences. I need to change the startup location to "Start the process" of "To Do".

  Set preferences for the user interface in the preferences > settings of the user interface tab. The following preferences are available.

  • Start location: Specifies the page that displays when you access the workspace HTML. The four options available are the processes to start, track, and Favorites.

  The settings of the user interface tab is grayed out why and how I get it back?

  Thanks to our QA group, we found a way to access the settings of the user interface. The single tab activated when opening preferences is out of the office. By selecting the button "+" in the tabs on the desktop calendar, queues, and the user interface settings are allowed.

• Headphone issues and options grayed out reading preferences

  The basic problem is that when I play music via iTunes, if I plug my headphones, it covers only playback through the computer speakers, not headphones.
  If I closed iTunes, plug in the earphones, THEN restart iTunes and play music, it will come through the headphones, but if I unplug, it is paused and not restart, even if I plug the headphones insert it again.
  Although I can change speakers headphones by stopping iTunes and restarting, I'm often trailing long playlists, it is not practical to do so.
  Other advice, it seems that I have to change the "audio playback" setting using "Session of Windows Audio' 'Direct Sound', or something similar, HOWEVER, when I go in Edition > Preferences > reading, the box is grayed out, and I can't change it.

  Any advice on how I can do so I can change the option, or any other fixes for the problem of helmet? Thank you very much

  (Running for laptop HP with Windows 8.1, iTunes 12.5.1.21,

  Installed new hard drive and reloaded the operating system on June 16, i.e. when the headset/speaker turn is more, before, and then it worked fine.)

  Have you found a solution? I've just updated to iTunes 12.5.1.21 and I have the same question, ' Edit > Preferences > reading > play Audio using the "gray

  Direct Sound is the vastly superior choice if you have several outputs such as speakers and headphones and now if have to stop iTunes whenever I output to the speaker.

• Mail of the El Capitan grayed out after Migration Wizard menus

  The arrival of my new MacBook Pro (OS 10.11.5) I used the Migration Assistant (MA) to import the data from my old MacBook (OS 10.6). MY did not have identical usernames on both devices, so a new user has been created for the migration.

  After migration, everything seems to work very well in most mail (and some obsolete applications).

  Problem: some menu of messaging options are grayed out on and/or non-functional. Strange thing is that Mail works fine in the other user account, so I guess that's a conflict somewhere, sometimes, preferences will not open. New emails correctly, they appear in notifications and can be opened individually, but I can't open the message viewer.

  Grey of menu items:

    

  What I tried without success:

  -delete all e-mail accounts and add them manually

  -remove mail preferences

  -Remove user library: containers, mail, mail preferences folder

  -disable the user fonts

  -Disable items in user login

  Any suggestions much appreciated troubleshooting.

• El Capitan loaded on my external hard drive disturbed my system preferences Maverick on my drive internal

  I currently use the most recent version of Maverick from an internal hard drive on my iMac. I needed to download the demo of Final Cut Pro X or under of El Capitan Yosemite and due to a limitation of version of FCPX. As I had an another Maverick boot on an external drive, I've decided to upgrade this drive to El Capitan. A few hours after the installation was successful, and I was able to download the trial of FCPX. So I planted my system and restarted with my boot Maverick my internal drive. So far so good, however, to my surprise, I can't the system preferences window because it gives me the following message appears "Unable to open the preferences system because of a problem.". Similarly, I get the same message when I load a DVD and the DVD player will automatically load.

  I need to go to my applications and open the program individual (Preferences system and DVD player to do what I want to accomplish.

  I restored tOSX recovery Mignot, but nothing has changed. I believe that El Capitan installation on another drive has created conflicts.

  I also discovered that my backup should be completely redone (i.e. backup lull in my go 530)... beautiful!

  Someone has a similar problem?

  If I can't solve this problem, I have to install El Capitan on my internal drive and maybe the problem will be solved.

  I would eject the external hard drive with the installation of El Capitan and see if it helps.

  FWIW, I have never known or seen reported when an installation on an external drive also changed the preferences on the internal drive.

  I suggest that you eliminate problems in your user folder by checking in the comments or in a new user.

  CREATE A NEW USER

  Go to system-> Preferences, create a new user in users and groups.

  Place in the new user by logging in under the Apple in the menu bar.

  Log in to the new user.

  You can ignore connect them with one identifier Apple. Hit continue and then jump.

  Only applications Apple will be on the dock.

  Go to Applications to open other applications.

  You still see the issue?

  If Yes, then the problem is with your core files.

  If not, then the problem is in your user folder.

  You have the time Machine and internal backups of your disk clone?

• Pavilion p6506f: System Recovery option grayed out when you use the recovery to factory default reset disk

  Dear experts,

  Please help me on what I am making a solution for about 4 hours now...

  Somehow my recovery partition is damaged, so I use the recovery disk that I created when I bought the computer.

  I used the disc to start the computer and after loading files and everything on the menu of Recovery Manager "System Recovery" is grayed out.  Note that I have not changed any hardware on the computer.

  Help, please!

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You did do the right thing. But you created a Win 7 recovery disk, not the game of HP recovery disks.

  You can switch to Win own 10.

  You will need the product key Microsoft of the COA sticker attached to the frame of your PC of 25 characters.

  Images of example COSTS:

  

  Do a clean install of win 10 If you do not know the product key of Windows 7 on the certificate of authenticity.

  Win 7 PC sometimes have problems updating to Win 10.

  I really think you should get support from HP Win 7 recovery. If the Win 10 upgrade fails you can always return Win 7 If you have a Win 7 HP recovery media.

  Your choice.

• 3110em: HP recovery partition exists, but the recovery of the system in the grayed out Recovery Manager?

  I have a hp recovery partition on my laptop, and I want to recover my PC.

  I go into the Recovery Manager, windows system restore is available, but the HP system recovery is grayed out and unavailable.

  I don't know what to do, is partition recovery for windows 7, but since I upgraded to Win8.1, I had a lot of problems, and I want to go back.

  Please help me if you can.

  The system recovery option means that it seems to be corruption or another problem with the score of recoveryt.

  As is the case, then you would use the recovery (USB or a game disc) media, you have already created to perform the recovery.

  If you have not created a recovery media, you will need to order a recovery USB stick (preferably) or a record of recovering HP or HP partner. The cost is usually about $30,00 USD
