Restoring Sun 5210 NAS to factory defaults and wipe existing memory?
Im trying to erase the existing memory on a storage unit and also would like to restore the factory defaults on the unit also. Im really new at this and could use all the help i can get.

If you're restoring a file you have to list it, so if you are restoring /wdn/file01 then you specify the alternate path as /restore/file01
Thanks

Photoshop Elements 12 (fresh install, on fresh installed Windowss 7 Ulitmate 64 OS) was printing incorrect colors, now is not printing at all. All other applications will print. I was having this problem before I restored my PC back to factory defaults. Now it is happening again.

After updading software on IPAD2 tells me I have to reset to factory default and will lose all data
Kinda.
Read the following in its entirty before doing anything.
Note that a "Restore" could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this. -

I have a cp1215 has started to be extra slow have reset to factory defaults and reinstalled driver
I have a cp1215 has started to be extra slow have reset to factory defaults and reinstalled driver on the computer etc....
I think where it is taking the most time is in the deleting from the print queue. I have an HP desktop computer with 3gb ram on windows xp. even if all I am doing is printing a test page with no other programs started it takes for ever to print a page.
any help would be appreciatedHi Mikeryan,
Have you tried turning off bidirectional communication?
Open your printers and faxes folder, right click the icon for your printer, and choose printer properties.
Go to the ports tab, and un-check "Enable Bidirectional Communication".
Restart your computer, and try printing to see if the issue has been resolved.
Hope this helps

Recently purchased older powermac G4 at a garage sale. Unable to do anything because owner, that has now moved, did not wipe it clean and everything I try to do requires his password. Is there a way to restore to factory default, make myself admin and reset password? Hoping this purchase wasnt a complete waste of my time and money.
Here's the instructions if you have the discs.
Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274?viewlocale=en_US
Changing your administrator password
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh655.html
Here's one method to reset the password without the install disc:
1. boot computer and hold the "apple" key and the "s" key.
2. wait for terminal show
3. release keys
4. type without the quotes: "/sbin/mount -uaw"
5. press enter
6. type without the quotes: "rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
7. press enter
8. type without the quotes: "reboot"
9. press enter
This will let you create a new admin account when you reboot your computer.
Also, without the discs, look at Mac OS X Tip - No Password, No Root, No CD? No Problem.
http://www.macobserver.com/tip/2003/06/16.1.shtml
Here is a way to get around not knowing the admin password on Macs.
To reset your OS X password without an OS X CD you need to enter terminal and create a new admin account:
1. Reboot
2. Hold apple + s down after you hear the chime.
3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
* mount -uw /
* rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
* shutdown -h now
4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can simply delete the old one and you’re good to go again!
Not sure is this will work on a Mac running OS 9.

Upgraded to IOS 8 and restore to factory default and now get error trying to restore
I was told to restore Ipod Touch 5th G to Factory defaults to check mic problem. I performed backup which seemed to work fine and forced to install update to IOS 8. Did the Restore to factory default which seemed to work without a problem.
Now when I go to RESTORE from backup I get a message saying that backup failed "....backup session failed"
What do I do now? I copied the backup folder to my desktop as they suggested.
If I go to iTunes 12 it will show ipod with the name it previously had but still nothing.Synced mead like apps and music are not included int he iPod backup that iTunes makes. They are synced back tot he device from yur iTunes library. If they are not in the library then they can't be synced back.

Restoring a Blank HD to factory defaults (including the hidden partition) [T400, Vista x64]
Hi,
Background info:
I'm installing linux, and instead of asking about everything at once, I'm separating my problems into multiple questions.
I plan to remove all partitions, make new ones (adding an extra one for linux) and then use the recover stuff to bring back windows
The main question (this one), is:
If I completely clear the hard drive of all partitions, and then re partition to include one extra linux (ext3) partition, can I use the "Product Recovery CDs" (the 14 cds that I have burnt using the thinkvantage software) to restore the computer to the exact factory default state? i.e., will it:
1) Completely restore vista
2) Restore the hidden recovery partition (I understand the CDs also act as a recovery partition, but there's 14 of them... I don't know how well I can maintain that many CDs, so I'd rather have another copy on the HD)
3) Not screw up the thinkvantage "stuff" (this is my first lenovo, so I'm not sure, but I want to make sure the support software doesn't go nuts once it notices there's an extra partition, etc.)
Thanks in advance.It's you topic, so you decide what is on topic or not.

Restore Cisco Prime NCS to factory defaults
We are replacing this appliance and I want to clean all our specific information off of the appliance. Restore it back to factory defaults.
I tried the "application reset-config" command, but that tell my it's not valid in this version NCS?
How can I clean this?
Thanks, TandristHi Tandrist,
To clean the database or restore to default
1. Stop the NCS (ncs stop)
2. Ran 'ncs db reinitdb'
3. Start the NCS (ncs start)
Note: this will delete all the devices , config ..would be like a fresh installed
Thanks-
Afroz

I'm trying to remove my restrictions, and i reset it to factory default, but everytime i back it up the restrictions are still on. I don't want to have to register as a new ipod and loose everything i've bought and added.
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

Hi - I tried to restore my iPhone 5 to factory setting so I could give it to my son but when I did it reset to someone else's apple id. I don not know this person and I am the only owner of the phone purchased from Sprint. How do I get this phone to work?
Its called Activation Lock. Take the phone to Sprint and explain your problem. It is their fault and responsibility to properly reset used phones.

Please Help
I had lost all the music on my iphone a while back and wanted to put it back on but my PC is a dinosaur and couldn't handle the sync without taking days. I decided to give it a go anyway. I tried to sync but kept getting an error message saying "waiting for changes to be applied". I looked up a solution to this problem and I saw that I should restore the phone to factory settings which I did. I then tried to sync again and it worked! .....the downside was that it took forever and I was without a phone for 36 hrs while I waited for sync to complete. It was at 662 0f 771 last night when I went to bed and when I awoke this morn, syncing had ceased and my phone was still erased of all data.
I am thinking now that everything was done and all I needed to do was turn off my phone and turn back on again but in a panic I selected an option on the phone to back up from icloud (as I knew I had done a backup 2 days ago). The only option available was "ipad backup" from over a week ago and stupidly I selected this option. It was successful but my contacts, mail, messages, photos and most importantly my notes and reminders are gone!!!
I have now restored the phone back to factory settings again.
WHAT DO I DO NEXT??I went back to iOS 7 and my backup file is restoring but when its done nothing is on my phone still and only takes 11-15 minutes to restore the backup instead of taking 25+ minutes like usual so I guess the backup is corrupted. How can I fix this?

I recently purchased a used 2nd generation Apple iPad. I was told that the iPad is locked because of Apple ID. I plan on erasing everything on the iPad and setting it back to factory defaults. Can I now use my personal Apple ID via my iMac to start it as it originally came from Apple??
It is a brick! But I did somehow get into the iPhoto section and was able to find the Former owner that owned the iPad and was able to contact him VIA FaceTime. on my iMac. He was of little help because he was not the original owner, but he bought the iPad as I did from a huge supplier and i was able to contact that supplier who refused to give out any information about the previous owner. I had the iPad hooked up to my somehowiMac via the USB cable and went through the setup procedure to no avail. Then after pressing the Home button several times it somehow went to the iPhotos that were on the iPad? There were 2 pictures of the owners email address. I then copied them to my iMac and used iPhoto app to enlarge the photos. It worked.So there is a way,just takes time to somewhat hack into Find My iPad?Phone.
Personally, it is not Apple's responsibility to protect customers of their personal DATA. With such a high security application. Then of coarse it is a great idea. Then again it is the responsibility of the former owner to wipe and rest the iPad before reselling it. This being the case like those sold on eBay and elsewhere that are ID Locked should not be allowed to be sold. Personally the ID lock is much like a VIN number of a car. In most states one cannot sell a car without the VIN Numbers. Somewhat the same thing should be true of ID Locks
