Impossible to get a new SSD to start

My iMac 2009 HD is dead, but I had a Time Machine backup. I replaced with a new 1 TB SSD HD death and thought I just plug the TM backup and start over. Well... I guess it doesn't work like that. I tried searching the net and found instructions to supposedly solve my problem, but they have not worked. I tried to start up taking Cmnd R, but that has not worked. I'm sure I have no CD from when I bought the iMac to my boss, while the option is out. I have an old iMac (predecessor of it) that I used as a system until I could get it fixed. I "think" I inferred that I can copy somehow the OSX from the old machine, I used it on my external hard drive which has my TM backup on it. So I think I somehow transfer that to the new SSD. Is that guess correct? If so, how can I get the operating system on the external hard drive (shouldn't it already be there as part of the TM backup?). So, how do this OS on the new SSD?

Thank you

You formatait the new SSD?

  • Tutorial of the postcard - can't get the new text block started

    It is a very basic question. I do the tutorial of postcard. I'm unable to get a second text block began on the front of the postcard to the time of the event. I take the text tool and drag it, but it does not create a new text frame. He thinks I want to type the information in the context of existing text.

    I hit escape repeatedly to try and out the first block of text, clicking on the tool text several times, tried shift and click, put the date in a Microsoft Word's doc information and then tried to 'Place' - all to nothing done. How can I get the file to understand that I am creating a second block of text?  How to get out the original text block?

    This seems to be a problem for me, I can't "uncheck" any tool path - by clicking on another tool or hit escape. It does not work. I close the file, then open it new in order to use a new tool. Very frustrating and time-consuming. I work under Windows, if that helps.

    Thank you.

  • Impossible to get our new HP Envy 5643 printer to work

    We just bought a new HP Envy 5643 printer all in one and I tried to put in place today without success.  I followed all the instructions and it says that we are connected through our router.  We loaded the software and our computer seems to recognize the printer, but when print us anything, nothing happens.   Print jobs just hang out there.

    We went through the troubleshooting online without success and ran the doctor of printing & scanning HP also always without success.  We are very frustrated and could use some advice.

    Thank you!!

    Hi MD-Terp,

    I don't know where you want to, type the IP address.

    If you were able to set up the integrated for the printer Web server, the printer has a valid IP address.

    Then, you simply need to add the printer to the computer using the printer installation software & or the add printer through devices and printers Wizard.

    Printer Setup & Software:

    Click Start, click principally made programs, click HP, click the folder for your printer and then click the icon for your printer. The software of the printer opens.

    Click printer setup & software selection.
  • Impossible to get Dell Optiplex 9010 to start using Windows 7 DVD

    Hello

    I recently bought a new Dell Optiplex 9010 and I tried to re install the OS by partitioning the disk into two discs.  Optiplex 9010 is unfortunately not booting with DVD player. I activated the boot sequence in the WOODS at DVD, USB and hard drive, but still the same issue.

    Called dell customer service and they sent a new Win7 DVD and her we had the same problem, I'm lying to start with DVD player.

    Hi santoshmanya,

    Please start on the F12 menu and select the option to boot from the DVD drive.

    If this does not work, start with the BIOS and disable all options other start the DVD player and just keep trying.

  • Impossible to get 2008 Macbook at the start of the recovery of the Internet... help?

    I tried the command + option + R and command-R start-up and restart, but no dice. I'm trying to reinstall Mac OS to give the laptop to a friend. Any tips?

    Hey Sndietzel,

    Thank you for being a part of the communities of Apple Support.

    I understand your message you are trying to boot a MacBook (2008) for OS X Internet Recovery but it is not successful.  This happens because this year and model of Mac does not support the OS X Internet Recovery:

    Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery

    What version of Mac OS X is currently installed? In the menu bar select  > what the Mac and you should see the version of OS X installed.  If she has OS X 10.6.8 or more, then there is no OS X Recovery, and you will need the installation disk OS X, or the disc that came with the computer to erase the disk and reinstall OS X. You will need to insert the disc while the Mac is turned on, and then restart while holding the C key to boot the disk.

    Take care.

  • Presario CQ61-110SL: upgrade for laptop Presario CQ61-110SL from XP to Windows 7 with new SSD EVO 840

    In fact on Presario CQ61-110SLI I have XP installed the Vista of origin instead.

    Now I want to upgrade to Windows 7 and contestually get a new SSD Samsung 840 rather original EVO... What is the correct procedure?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

    There is no procedure to upgrade from XP to Win 7, it would be clean installation.

    1. place the SSD drive in the machine instead of the HARD disk

    2. start the installation of Win 7 disc to install Win 7 (best x 64 edition)

    3 install the drivers of the machine, you can download from >here<

    Windows 7 is optimized to work with SSD, there will be no problem.

    If you have important data on your old HDD, you can either save it before (on external support, USB key, Cloud solution, etc.)  or after it (via a USB cable plugged into the laptop as external drive). This is also an option to transfer data.

    Please, let me know if you have any other questions. Happy holidays!

  • New SSDS do not mount on MBP 2012 Recovery Mode

    I replace the HD on a 2012 model 9.2 MBP with an OWC 6 G SSD. I ran a backup Time Machine on the HD 500 G original and then swapped the drive. I can't get the new SSD to appear in Recovery Mode to format it and install OS X I have tried with the original disc connected in an external box, even with the Time Machine backup drive and I tried with no externally attached at all. (Continued on the upgrade command instructions on the site of OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/articles/how-to-transfer-your-data-from-your-old-drive - to-a-new-reader) Then, I removed the SSD of MBP and attached to my Mac Mini in an external enclosure. It mounted fine and I was able to format. So I ruled out a faulty SSD. Then I restarted the MBP with original HD installed and the SSD connected via external enclosure. Run utility disc and formatted the SSD drive. Close all again and replace the SSD in the MBP. Started in Recovery Mode to install OS X and the drive does not appear.

    Currently of ideas. I rechecked all the components and all should be fully compatible.

    Ideas?

    -Scott

    Started in Recovery Mode to install OS X and the drive does not appear.

    You mean the restoration of the Internet (Command + Option + R)? Recovery mode is command + R, and since you do not have an operating system on your new SSD HD Recovery wouldn't be here.

  • XPS M1530 with new SSD will not identify adapter WLAN 1395

    I just bought a new SSD 128 GB for my old workhorse XPS M1530, installed a clean VISTA Ultimate 32 bit OS since the original DVD supplied with the laptop.  Everything works except the wireless 1395 adapter.

    I know that the material of the wifi card is good, because wifi still works when I put the old 64 GB SSD back in. I use the same version of WLAN driver on the new facility.  Device Manager indicates that the adapter is installed and working properly.  Yet the computer with the new SSD does not recognize that the wireless network adapter is installed and activated.

    I use the WLAN driver and BIOS version recommended Support Dell for my service number.  These are the same versions that I have on the former SSDS.

    I'm tempted to reformat the new SSD and start all over again, but that takes a lot of time to reinstall everything. And I wouldn't waste 10 GB on the new SSD to install the recovery partition on the new SSD which lies on the former SSDS and do a restore on the new SSD.  I have more certain supplied software preinstalled on your laptop.

    Gene

    I made an another clean install of the operating system on the new SSD, and this time, I found and used the Drivers and Utilities of original disc that came with the laptop to install the DELL software system utility first.  That did the trick, because when I installed the drivers of that era, the WLAN 1395 works.

    Now I have a space wasting a 22 Gb Windows.old directory, but I am happy.  I'm going to reformat the drive in the morning then it is plugged to my laptop in an external USB SATA drive enclosure and start with a clean car and redo the OS install again, this time properly.

    It's a bit ironic that the DELL system software utility has not been showing available for my service on the support.dell.com site tag.

    Lesson learned.  I'll post tomorrow how the last OS install goes on the SSD clean and new.

    Factory hdd with SSD OCZ VERTEX 4 is replaced by the bios.

    What could be the problem?

    > Drive HARD factory is replaced with SSD OCZ VERTEX 4 recognized by the Bios.

    You have the same start-up problems 8 win using the original HDD equipped Tecra R950?

    From my point of view, it would be possible that this laptop does not start successfully because of the new SSD.

    I recommend you check the previous HARD disk.
    If the laptop could start correctly, the problem is related to the new SSD drive.

    In some cases, it would be possible that the SSD firmware must be updated.

  • New SSD installed, why not start recognizes the TM backup drive?

    2008 15 "Macbook running OS 10.9.5. Time Machine backups are in agreement, on an Iomega eGo 1 TB external.

    I installed a new SSD (Crucial), but during the restart on the backup drive I get the question mark flashing. Reinstalled the old drive hard and everything is back to the old normal. Any suggestions? Could it have to do with the version of the USB cable? But why no problem with externally in combo with the old drive? Should I put another Time Machine backup on an external new or different, and then try again to install the new drive? I should try a different usb cable that is provided?

    Thanks in advance.

    You insert disks that came with your MacBook and then hold the alt/option key during startup, and then click the drive or the CD

  • Impossible to get new lines in bean managed to VO [completed by program]

    I created a ViewObject populated programatically and with success has written code to fill the date running. But when I press createInsert and enter data in the new row inserted in the table, I'm not able to get this new line, but the pre-filled data are easily retrieved in the managed bean.

    Here is the code for all of the lines.

    DCBindingContainer bindings = (DCBindingContainer)getBindings();
            DCIteratorBinding dcIterBind =
                (DCIteratorBinding)bindings.get("TransientVO1Iterator");
            RowSetIterator rsi=dcIterBind.getRowSetIterator();
            while(rsi.hasNext()){
                System.out.println(rsi.next().getAttribute("Column1"));
            }
    

    I have completed 4 rows on the duration and by inserting a new line through createInsert. But this code back row only 4 which is prérenseigné.

    Thanks in advance

    User, tell us your version of JDev, please!

    Perhaps the problem is that your loop does not start at the first line. If the iterator is used on a page of the interface user framework sets the current line on the first row of the iterator. This means that rsi.next () Gets the second row by omitting the first.

    Try your loop as long as

    Line = rsi.first ();

    While (line! = null) {}

    Object obj = row.getAttribute ("Column1");

    do something with the attribute

    line = rsi.next ();

    }

  • My Satellite L850-18 t will support the new SSD?

    Hello

    I am seriously thinking to buy the new SSD which is SATA III. Currently, I have Toshiba Satellite L850-18 t, European model. And I think that (although that is quite difficult to get information) that the current HARD disk is SATA I.

    My question is, will the new SSD work correctly, it will take all the benefits (write and read speed) if I install it on the laptop? And if not, what SATA SSD do you recommend?

    I really need to empty it.

    Best regards
    Luka

    Yes, your Toshiba laptop support SSD. I have older machines, and there is no problem with SSDS.
    This is not complicated, you think it is.
    Check prices and buy one that suits.

    I can recommend brands like Toshiba, Samsung or Kingston. More info on SSD Toshiba you can find on http://storage.toshiba.eu/cms/en/index.html

    A friend of mine uses Samsung 840 Series SSD of base and it works perfectly. The new SSD, you can install original recovery image and start using your machine with factory again.
