Lawrence,
Are you positive the erase all content and settings option erases the firmware/operating system also?
I did this with my original iPhone once as a test after Apple changed this to a secure erase, and the firmware/operating system was not erased.

Zsh completion can not work after re-login

There is a ~/zshfunc/_fossil script, but it can not work after re-login.
The temp workaround is re-type 'compinit' manually.
fossil <tab> # will use file name as completion
compinit
fossil <tab> # will show commands for fossil

Hi
Thanks for the tip. However, I elected not to save the XP SP2 uninstall files when I installed SP2. so I appear to be stuffed.
There must be some creative drivers that work with an audigy with XP SP2 installed!
If not then its either re-format the Hard Dri've and re-install everything again (Doh!!) or get another (not Creative Labs) soundcard.
this is really bugging me.

Phone is turning off and on. Clock doesn't work after resetting the whole phone.

My phone turns off and on randomly . Before it turns off blue red green lines would appear on my screen. (Like a computer before it turns on). I've tried every reset trick you can think of. Also my clock doesn't work. It never has the right time. I've tried to reset it manually. I tried to reset the network. Help!!

Did you also try to set it up as new device without using the backup afterwards?
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If the phone works after that, restore from the backup, if it does not, you'll have to get it serviced, the problem might be hardware related.

I can't install after reseting to factory defaults

My 3 day AirPort Extreme stopped working, after I connected another router with the same SSID. So I decided to reset it to factory dafults. I followed all the steps, and I guess it worked.
But, when I got to set up again, my iPhone can't find it. When I first set it up, it was working fine and my phone recognised it instantly.
It's the AirPort Extreme 802.11ac, and the model is: A1521

On the iPhone, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Enter the device passcode, then confirm.
You will need to connect to your network again.

Hello Rich,
Welcome to the Sony Community.
Such an issue happens due to issues during installation. Unfortunately, Sony does not provide installation support. It is recommended that the installation be completed by a qualified professional installer.
Basic mounting instructions are available in the documentation included with your car stereo system. Manuals are also available online and can be downloaded using the below link.

My iphone 4 is not working after resetting

My iphone is not working after resettong, it just let me do emergency calls.
and if i turn it on it saids to connect USB to itunes.

If you reset to factory that is expected behavior. You need to connect to iTunes to bring it into the Apple World. You should then be able to connect to the network of your cell provider.

Can't boot after resetting PRAM??

Before attempting to install Leopard, I upgraded my non-leopard compatible 1.2 GHz processor to a 1.8 GHz leopard compatible one. I also doubled my RAM from 512 to 1024 MB. I then installed leopard but upon restart it continually shut down. Holding down the "c" button at startup, I was able to boot from the leopard disc. I could then even start the computer from my old Panther startup volume. I used 'Disk Utility', ran 'disk repair' and reinstalled Leopard. The same problem persisted.
In another forum someone suggested resetting the PRAM as a next step. This I did but now I'm really freaking out because my computer is totally nonresponsive. My computer starts, I no longer hear that wonderful symphonic major chord, the Apple logo appears (with no circular loading bar), and there it remains frozen. I can no longer boot from the Leopard disc or any other disc (TechTool Pro, DiskWarrior). What should I try now?

There are several things you can do.
If you can’t start up after resetting PRAM
If you have a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) scheme set up, your computer may not start up if you reset parameter random-access memory (PRAM) when you restart.
If this happens, hold down the Option key while you restart your computer, and select your startup disk when you see the prompt.
f a message says “type ‘mac-boot’ and press return”
If the message “type ‘mac-boot’ and press return” appears when you try to start up your computer, some of your computer’s internal settings need to be reset.
NOTE: It may be helpful to print these instructions before you begin.
Or, try these suggestions:
■ Shut down your computer. Turn the computer back on and immediately hold down Command-Option-P-R, continuing to press until you hear the startup sound for the second time. This resets the computer’s parameter random-access memory (PRAM).
IMPORTANT: Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
And finally
Restart with the X key
Hold down the X key and choose Apple menu > Restart. This may force the computer to start up using your Mac OS X system.
If the computer starts up, release the X key. Choose Apple menu> System Preferences, and then click Startup Disk. Make sure that the disk containing Mac OS X is selected.
Restart with the Option key
If you are unable to start up using the X key, choose Apple menu > Restart and immediately hold down the Option key.
When icons start to appear in the center of the screen, release the Option key. Select the disk that contains Mac OS X, and then click the forward arrow to continue starting up.
■ If resetting PRAM doesn’t solve the problem, reset non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM). When the “To continue booting ...” message appears, type “reset-nvram” and press Return. Then type “reset-all” and press Return.

Apps not working after reset

I had to reset my iphone and after resetting it, holding down the power and home keys until the apple showed up none of my apps will work. The app screen will come up for a second or two and then it switches back to my home screen. Any remedies for this?

If only 3 apps, try deleting and re-installing the apps first.
Restoring your iPhone with iTunes is selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences.
Restoring completely erases your iPhone followed by re-installing the firmware. After the firmware is re-installed, you will be prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. There is another option - restore as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
Your iPhone's backup includes data such as most iPhone settings, email account settings, contact info, SMS messages, notes, recent calls, call favorites, photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll, and 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app.
Your iPhone's backup is updated if needed as the first step during the sync process.
Before restoring an iPhone with iTunes, it is a good idea to import the photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll - as with any other digital camera. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for these photos, and contact info is designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer - so also not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for contact info.
After an iPhone is restored from the backup or as a new iPhone or not from the backup, this must be followed by a sync.
Before restoring an iPhone, sync your iPhone immediately before doing so to update your iPhone's backup if needed.

Short Term Working After Reset.

We purchased a 160gb I Pod Classic for my Daughter as a Christmas present and she has had what may turn out to be a simple problem with it from the start.
Following a total state of not working, a reset appeared to fix this, although whilst it will work from a state of on and off if carried out in a short space of time, if it is left off for a period of say 45 minutes or longer, it will not start up by the normal method of holding down the "menu" key and you have to go through the reset procedure again.
Help appreciated before I decide to take it back to the store.
Many thanks and seasons greetings.

You need to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it, as described here:

You can't just connect to iTunes as Eric's post tells you, that won't work.

Applications not working after resetting macbook from external hard drive

I installed Snowleopard a few weeks ago. Everything was working fine, though a bit slow for a while, I figured it was just because I have had the computer for a while, but about a week ago it shut down and wouldn't restart. It would go to the login page where i would type in my password but wouldnt log in to my desktop. I did what apple suggested on their website and reset everything and restored my computer settings from the time machine backup on my external hard drive and reinstalled snow leopard with the install dvd. Everything was seemingly back to normal, but now most of my applications are not functioning correctly. I can't use isight with skype (though it works with photobooth), I can't import photos from my camera to iphoto, imovie won't even open (displays "imovie quit unexpectedly" and other things of this nature.
Since seeing that multiple applications are not functioning correctly, I kind of figure that its not an isolated problem with just one application but maybe something wrong with my OS since I reinstalled it? I've tried resetting my PRAM and NVRAM but that hasn't made any noticeable change at all.
I'm about ready to give up and take it in somewhere to be looked at unless someone can give me some good advice on how I can fix it myself? All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

I realize this post is from quite some time ago, but it showed up as relevant in my own search to resolve this problem. So hopefully my answer will be equally visible and thus helpful.
Select the movie file within iTunes (not the actual file(s) in the finder) and drag it to the desired location on your external hard drive. While doing so, you'll notice an indicator showing that you're in fact moving two files: the movie (m4v) file and the associated Extras (ite) file.
The first time I attempted this process, I selected the files within the Finder and dragged them to the external hard drive. I was able to play the movie itself from this location, but the Extras wouldn't play. After spending a considerable amount of time searching for a solution I tried the afore mentioned and it worked.
No promises, but hopefully this will work for some of you out there and save you some time and frustration.

Touch screen doesn't work after resetting the phone. Could the screen be locked?

After following the previous touch screen not working message, I reset the phone but still doesn't work. Could there be a screen lock? Or any other way for the touch screen to work?

Hi there Angelicness3011!
The touch screen responding correctly is pretty important for you to even use your phone! I'm sorry to learn you've been having issues with it. Let's review some options together!
You mentioned you reset the phone. Does this mean you removed the battery & put it back in? Or does this mean you able to complete an actual Hard Reset?
Instructions on a Hard Reset can be found here: http://bit.ly/Q00sJ9
Your information is generally backed up to Google or Backup Assistant and your SD Card. If possible, please sign in to double check.
If you're unable to hard reset and removing the battery doesn't resolve the concerns we may have to look in to replacement. Does your phone have any physical or liquid damage? How long have you had your phone? Do you have insurance?
I look forward to your responses!

Folder Redirection policy is not applied to a user, when the server target is changed, but works after resetting the windows profile.

Folder Redirection policy is not applied to a user, when the server target is changed.
After server target is changed via group policy, when user login (roaming profile)first time, the the new server target has not been applied, instead it's pointing to the old folder redirection path.
But if we reset the windows profile (roaming ), the new folder redirection works, can you please specify a solutions that the new folder redirection works when the user login for the first time. so it reduce the time on resetting users profile.
it seems that we need to delete the old folder redirection path from the user profile (roaming user profile) via group policy or similar solutions..
Many Thanks

> But when the specific users login they all get the same error, it
Is the old server removed from the domain? Seems so - or some other
authentication related issue, hard to tell from here...
> seems that the roaming user profiles still keeps the old server details,
Yes - if you change redirection targets, FR moves content from old to
new, and only if this ends sucessfully, it will update the redirection
target.
Make the old redirection target accessible to the user and you'll be fine.

Find Friends Location on iPhone not working after reset

My grandson recently reset his iPhone 6 for reasons related to certain music not syncing properly with iTunes. As a result of the reset, his location is labeled "not available" in the Find Friends app when others are trying to find him. He can still see his friends locations. They just can't see him (his phone). Interestingly, in his Find My Friends app, under Me, it shows "location services off". But under Settings, Privacy, Location Services, it shows "On" and Find Friends app is showing "While Using". His iCloud account is also showing Share My Location as "On" From his iPhone ("This Device").
Any help as to what could be causing this would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken Templin

We were able to fix the issue by doing the following:
In Settings select Privacy, Location Services and scroll down to the bottom and select System Services. While everything was green (switched on), we turned Share My Location off and then back on. His location is now available to his friends (and parents). I have no idea why this worked to fix the issue, but it did.

Iphone4...got soaked, works after reset, now wont reactivate and shows error 0XE8000004

Hi all,
I have a 32gig iPhone4 that I purchased second hand. Recently I knocked it into the toilet...I turned it off straight away, left it to dry.
After 5 days drying I gave it a full charge, turned it on and the display was all sketchy. I've kept trying with it, realised that the display would function fine at times so have I put it in recovery mode, factory reset it and managed to get it out of recovery mode.
I'm back at a fresh start, however when trying to activate the handset via iTunes I keep getting the same error....'0xE8000004'
Can anyone shed any light on this error and how I can get this phone back up and running?
Thanks you in advance

Yes i've tried pretty much all of them steps, only thing I cannot try is another computer but to be honest I cant see any real reason it being my laptops fault as its been fine since day dot.
Not really sure which step to take next to be honest...any suggestions appreciated!
