Reboot with the command keys and R keys, use disk utility to erase the computer's internal drive and install a fresh OS.

If you initially Lion among Apple's USB keys, you need to connect this drive, and then press Option after the reboot.

  • Satellite P30: How to format the HARD drive and install a new OS?

    I have a satellite P30 laptop with Windows XP. I plug myself a new OS (namely because I can't find my old recovery CD CD and OS) that I want to do a re-shape full of my system. Reason is that my system has been painfully slower and slower over the last year. I even updated my RAM to 512 MB standard supplied with the machine to 2 GB, but it seems to have had little or no effect. So my questions are:-

    1] where can I get my hands on the restore CD that has all the drivers on this subject, and any recovery CD to reformat my HARD drive?
    [2] in the order in which I will make this reformatting?
    How can [3] after having bought an external HARD drive to keep files that I don't want to lose, I transfer those of before my re - format?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Hello

    You received with the laptop Toshiba Recovery CD! Am I wrong?
    So what s the problem?

    Simply insert the CD and try to boot from this CD.
    The restore CD contains all Toshiba drivers, tools and utilities Windows OS + additional software like Win DVD for example.
    The installation will set the laptop to factory settings, but will also format the HARD drive!

    Up to now, we come to the point 3; --> How do I save the data
    If you have purchased a second HDD and connect it to the USB port and transfer all the necessary files on the second HDD
    If you have purchased only the HARD drive, then you will need a USB HDD 2.5 case.

  • I tried to reload XP using my drive but it failed due to a hardware or software problem, XP is stuck in a loop and does not load. How can I clean my disks and reload XP?

    I have a HP XP of 2005. After a year of use of a premium support tech, my OS must be installed.

    I used the disk and followed the installation steps. I received a message on there was a hardware or software that would effect the install and may not work properly. In any case, I continued and of course I am stuck in a loop.

    I can't go to my office.

    First of all, I get a notice on a black screen to select the operating system to start. There are 2 identical choices. Microsoft Media edition.

    Once selected, a screen appears. "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully.
    a recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "

    I have enough to make choices and none work.

    1. choose the last known good configuration to return to the most recent settings that worked. :

    2. do not apply

    3. There is a selection in the Safe Mode with command prompt and if I had used the F8 key to reinstall this option would have worked. To do this, do not hurry.

    what I get is a list of drivers that are installed.

    I'M IN A LOOP BETWEEN CHOOSE TO START WINDOWS WITH MICROSOFT XP THEN A NEW SCREEN APPEARS, WHATEVER I HAVE THAT LISTS THE CHOICES ABOVE.

    I need help reload my OS and wipe the hard drive clean. Is there a software I can download to help?

  • How can you Hotsync a T5 and one E4 with the same Palm desktop program?

    My husband and I had 2 Palm Tungsten, a T5 and an E2. How do you use the same office palm hotsync our Palms? What program would work better for both of them? Thank you!

    All available versions of Palm Desktop can be downloaded here:

    http://KB.Palm.com/SRVS/Nua/launchKB.asp?c=33529

    Please note that what you are looking for is Palm Desktop 4.1.4E.  The E stands for "extended", which is required for the fields in the database of contacts who use the T5 and E2.  If you only download the version 4.1.4 (without the E), you will lose this feature on your desktop.  I think both versions are also the same.

    You will notice that the E2 is not in the list for version 4.1.4E.  It is only because they now recommend the new version (6.2) which was designed for Vista desktop computers.  Unless you have a Vista desktop, you gain nothing by using version 6.2 and you actually lose some features.

  • How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

    How can I make the best use of a new external hard drive and a new catalog full of photos just loaded into Photoshop elements 14 Organizer?

    Keep all the files on external hard drive image?  Nothing else and no pictures on the desktop?

    Keep all image files both places?

    What is the best way to go through thousands of images in the Organizer to identify and place them in files?

    Once I've placed a file, I just leave it in the entire catalog or a way indicate to me that it has been sorted?

    As overwhelming, any tips/shortcuts/schemes, you can offer are welcome!

    As I only have the version of the EP, here is some info on the organiser:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/how-to/use-elements-Organizer.html

    Independent of how this feature works, you want to have your photos in one place and have a backup (second copy) somewhere else. All hard drives will not be successful at some point - some more early, some late - never trust to have your files in any safety devices if they are on a single disc. Once you have your sorted, it would be useful that you will organize/name/tag new photos immediately if the task is relatively short and simple. I copy my photos on my internal hard drive for my camera, take a quick look with preview to see who needs some changes and then decide where to put them - either drop them immediately after naming them or bring in an editing application and then file them away.

  • The standard weather app on my iphone 6 has stopped working.  It shows just my wallpaper grayed out when I try to access.  The app can be restarted or deleted and reloaded?  If so, how?

    The standard weather app on my iphone 6 has stopped working.  It shows just my wallpaper grayed out when I try to access.  The app can be restarted or deleted and reloaded?  If so, how?

    No, the soft part of the operating system, so it would mean reload the iOS together. Have you tried a forced reboot yet?

    Close all open applications by double-clicking the home button, and then drag to the top of the application window until it disappears from the screen.

    Reset your device: press and hold the home button and the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black, and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

    You need a disk FULL/license to do a clean install, not an upgrade license.

    If you use a perpetual Photoshop and formatted your disc version of starting without disabling your activation of Photoshop, you also Adobe supports help you activate Photoshop once you retrieve your serial number.  The startup disk formatting would destroy that credential of Activation Photoshop machine which is registered in the database of the Adobe activation server. Which reduces the activation numbers you have to use.  If you have Photoshop installed on a second computer that means that you have no free activation available as well, even with your key you can't activated the machine.
