My hard drive has crashed - need to re - activate Vista
My hard drive crashed. I now have a new hard drive and Vista reloaded. I need to activate this but can not read all the sticker for the serial number. Is there a way that I can know what it is? I see that some, but not all.
Contact the manufacturer of your computer.
We cannot offer any assistance in this matter.
See you soon.

How can I retrieve my files from the clouds after my hard drive has crashed - files were not deleted.
Don't know what your problem is - log on to Skydrive and recover the files that you need them, or download the app to Skydrive and they will all be uploaded at the same time.

How to read the Notes of Apple recovered from the HARD drive has crashed
I tried to use DiskWarrior 5 to repair the hard drive that crashed on the previous laptop I was using (Macbook Pro mid-2010 7.1) last year. I was running OS X 10.9 Mavericks for sure, and I'm almost certain that I had updated to OS X 10.10 Yosemite at the time where the hard drive crashed. DiskWarrior does not completely fixing the reader, but I was able to recover most of the important files that I needed back.
The only thing that I still have to get back that I really wanted were my Notes of Apple (not sticky). I could save a few files com.apple.Notes with these files:
NotesV1.storedata
NotesV1.storedata - wal
NotesV1.storedata - shm
I tried to add the .html extension and open it in TextEdit, and Safari, and I see a lot of code, but none of my actual notes. I noticed at the top of the NotesV1.storedata file, it says: SQLite 3 format, which leads me to believe that SQLite might serve to open/decode what I so that I can actually read. I don't know anything about SQLite except that it can be opened and used in the Terminal, and it is already installed by default on my current computer which is a Macbook Pro mid-2012 (9.1).
Here's a sample of what I see if it helps.
Someone who knows what I'm doing and who also knows what they are doing can give me instructions step by step on how I can open these files with SQLite in the terminal, or decode, or something. And no, unfortunately I do not have a back-up hard drive anywhere, and I was using iCloud in time.
SQLite is a database format.
Your Mac must have an integrated tool to read these files, it's a Terminal command that has this manual...
https://developer.Apple.com/library/Mac/documentation/Darwin/reference/ManPages/ man1/sqlite3.1.html
If it's too hard, you can try an app like...
.. .or one of the many that are discussed at...
http://StackOverflow.com/questions/100959/Mac-SQLite-Editor
You must open the "NotesV1.storedata", you may have to search in different tables to find relevant data, the data will be broken so that the pieces are unique, it is usually how are structured databases, if you need everything intact (as dates change etc) you need to perform queries to retrieve relevant items. Otherwise, you can export in CSV or other formats via this application.
I recommend you change the original & working on a copy, just in case you save the changes.
I don't think that this database is encrypted, but it is possible so post back if all of this sounds like gibberish. Also keep in mind that the data should not have images or other multimedia files that can be put in place, sometimes they are kept in databases as files.
Another option is to find the location that the Notes.app stores these databases in your user account, you may be able to place these copies & get the app to read. Ideally, you would have a similar version of the operating system installed to do this.

I bought a laptop and I know it was Photoshop and Dreamweaver on it. Then the hard drive crashed. I wrote the serial numbers of mail for my software. However, I can't tell which version is installed. I tried to install CS5 and CS6, but the serial number was not correct for each version. I have to continue to work through each version of the software? Or y at - there a way to tell which software serial number is associated with save me time?
A serial number that has been registered by "a kid to College" does not belong to you unless you and "a kid to College" a transfer of license members creative cloud can transmit or sell old versions of CS?
So even if you cannot find a download that works, you're probably not in order to activate the program

Because this product is no longer supported by the manufacturer, I hope that someone out there will be able to help me find a way to get my calendar and contacts restored on the desktop. My pocket computer sat unused for a very long time, but my desk calendar and contacts were until that my hard drive crashed. I was able to retrieve the files of PalmOne since the hard drive crashed, but all I can see are the *.dat files. When I try to import or restore, the *.dat is not a supported file extension. Help! I have the original installation CD. Thank you
.dat files are Palm Desktop is looking for work - you can not import them.
Just create a user in Palm Desktop and copy the files (having more than 1 KB of data) the current .dat address.dat and datebook.dat (or calendar.dat, I don't know which existed on your device).

MS Vista was preinstalled on my computer. (I bought it new.) It did not come with a MS Vista program disc.) My hard drive has crashed and I need to replace it. What should I do to get the Vista OS on my new hard drive.
Hello
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

MacBook pro work leave because of pulled and broken wire. I took out the hard drive. the hard drive has all my files that I wouldn't need to clear all of the other personal files?
It does not start to the top, screen and hardware ok except belt disconnected.
also can I sell adapter, brand new, never used. where can I sell?
Hi Wally, the hard disk OS X and all of your files. Get a case for your reader, and it backs up. Try OWC
Always keep your Mac backed up on an external drive with Time Machine or utility of cloning like SuperDuperor double clone.
Try eBay for the adapter.

I've owned an HP Pavilion dm1-LQ862PA #UUF, used to be windows 7-64 bit. the internal hard drive has been corrupted and recommended to replace another. they were asking for the backup cd and I failed to do, and I do not regret it. Well, except to lose all my files and programs that I installed, it will also include bluetooth, wi - fi and other important built in programs? I'm not a computer expert. If ever these important programs had totally disappeared, how retrieve it? my laptop in an HP authorized service center will be probably expensive and I decided to buy a new HARD drive and ask someone to put it in and install a new OS. Please help thanks
Hello:
There is a support for your PC page where all the software drivers to run the hardware on your PC such as bluetooth and wireless can be reinstalled.
What I don't see is the availability of recovery disks to reinstall the operating system (windows 7 64-bit) or your PC programs (other than those listed in the link of support above).
This means that if you want to replace the hard drive, you must make your own W7 64-bit installation media and use the 7 product key of Microsoft windows on the bottom of your PC to activate the installation.
That assumes you can read all 25 characters of the product key windows 7.
Here's how...
If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.
Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.
The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.
http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/
The replacement hard drive should be a 320 GB SATA II 5 400 rpm Disk If you want the same specification provided with your PC hard drive.
Please refer to Chapter 4 of the service manual on the link below for the procedures for removal and replacement of the hard disk.

ON DEMAND! Sudden HARD drive failure. Need urgent advice concerning a new
So when I got home, I noticed that my laptop no longer works. It seems that my HARD drive has failed. I've owned a laptop Lenovo Z50-70.
I use the laptop a little more for the games, but especially for programming under Windows or Linux.
Can someone tell me what settings should I consider for this? Can I get the latest SATA? Or look at the cache or rpm?
The other variant is the purchase of an SSD now (250 GB or more) at the moment and buy another for installing Linux later, as I don't have a lot of money for the time cutrent.
I need quick and easy answers right now. Thank you very much!
Cache on HD
SSD would be your best bet. Make sure it fits. Most are not a problem to look toward the top of the physical specification of the existing drive. How thick it is. 9mm or 7 mm bit SSD are<9mm samsung="" &="" crucial="" are="" pretty="" safe="" choices.="" many="" intel="" ssd="" will="" be="" a="" problem="" with="">9mm>
Invest in an external for backup and Imaging. If you restore, then it's a walk in the Park. Otherwise, looks like you may have lost data.

HP laptop - 15-g227wm: Hard Drive question, in need of a solution
First of all, I don't know if the version of Windows running was of 32-bit or 64-bit.
The laptop in question is my mother and randomly, he started to become unresponsive in the middle of the night. She had not dropped it and only uses the laptop to surf the internet and play some Facebook games.
I went to the start menu and asked the laptop to run diagnostic systems. In two minutes, he told me that the disk check hard short DST was not, by giving the code 9SNJ3G-7MP84W-XD7WL1 - T 60, 703.
As it is a hard drive problem, I hope that, at the very least, it will take replace the hard drive, if not buy another laptop.
The problem is the following; the laptop was purchased at a Wal-Mart. It was the display model they had, as it was the last one in stock, and Wal-Mart could not locate the box for the laptop at the time of purchase. We have no user manual and no CD to reinstall Windows (the laptop had 8.1 the purchase, and we took advantage of the free for 10 update when it was available).
Please let us know our best options. Thank you for your time.
Hello:
While I can't tell you precisely what that code means, yes the the bottom line is the hard drive has suffered an accident and needs to be replaced.
Initially, the PC came with 64-bit W8.1. HP does not support this model for 32-bit operating systems.
Here is the service manual for this model.
http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04886216
Removing and replacing the drive hard in this model is a daunting task, but if you are up to it, see Chapter 6 for R & R procedures.
If the laptop is still under warranty, you can get HP to replace the drive under warranty.
If this isn't the case, you're on your own.
You can order W8.1 recovery media for the laptop computer from the link below, or clean reinstall 10 64-bit windows on the new drive from the link below it (media creation tool). You can clean install W10 for free, without a product key, given that the laptop was already legally upgraded to W10.
