Does the app install allow you to erase your hard drive?

Looking to completely erase my harddrive.
Typically installing OSX from a disk gives you the option to transfer files or erase.
Does the app install do the same, given that there is no alternate startup disk?
Thanks

You boot into the ML Recovery disk by holding down the command-r keys and proceed from there.

  • Does anybody know an app which allows you to use your iPhone as CCTV

    I am wondering if anybody knows an app which allows you to use your iPhone as a CCTV camera so I can view what is going on. Please if you know any app which allows you to use your iPhone as CCTV camera. Thanks I am really grateful.

    There are serveral brands and models of security cameras, baby monitors and nanny-cams that have apps in the the app store.  They are designed to accomplish exactly what you are describing.  Each brand of camera has its own app.

  • Does the amount of mail you  have in your mailbox take up storage space on the ipod touch?

    Does The Amount Of Mail You Have IN Your Mailbox Take Up Sorage Space ON The Ipod Touch

    It shouldn't take up space because the emails are saved on email provider server (yahoo.com, rr.com, etc) All of the provider should do this.

  • Does the app download give you the option to erase your memory?

    Looking to completely clear my hard drive and start from scratch.
    Typically doing an OSX install from a disk gives you the option to either transfer your settings and files from the old OSx to the new, or to wipe your memory and start over.
    Since this is an app install, with no alternative startup disk, am i still able to clear my hard drive?
    I'd like to save time rather than order a disk through the mail.
    Thanks

    Ask the question once.

  • Does Photoshop Lightroom 3 allow you to "tag" your images?

    Hi All...
    I'm looking into purchasing Lightroom but I'm wondering if Lightroom 3 has the ability to "tag" your images for easy searching?  How About Lightroom 4?

    Hi guys...  Thanks for responding!  I did just download the LR3 trial version...  And have only just started to toy around with it...  I basically want to be able to assign names to each photo for the project the photo was for...  I then want to be able to recall all the photos which have to do with that specific project just by typing in project names or other keywords which will then essentially display them for me without having to search my hard drive or think back on where I stored them.  Is this possible with Lr3?  I believe it is with Lr4 but I'm not sure. 
    Also, is Lr4 worth waiting for?  

  • Does the iPod Touch use Flash memory, or a hard drive?

    I thought that both the Touch and Nano used flash memory, but people on another board are telling me that the Touch uses a hard drive.
    Which is correct?

    Should have said Flash memory not Flash drive.

    Hi @Darren104
    Welcome to the HP Support Community. I saw your post regarding the Boot Device not Found error message. This HP document Resolve Boot Device not Found Error Message will show you how to reset your BIOS. This will force the BIOS the look at the hardware and it might see your new hard drive. Another reason that it might not be seeing the hard drive is because there is no bootable operating system on the hard drive. You might need to look at taking it out and installing an operating system on it via another computer.

  • How do you know when your hard drive is failing

    Having trouble turning on computer and computer freezing and getting a blue screen.  Videos freeze.  Do I need a new hard drive for my Imac  Hard drive has errors.

    Boot your machine with the install disc that came with it, launch Disk Utility and repair the disk. If that passes, then boot your machine with the supplied Apple Hardware Test disc and run the extended tests, at least twice. If that passes, download and run Rember,

  • How would you set up your hard drives if you had these to work with

    So I currently have :
    1 internal 1 Tb 7200 HDD
    1 internal 300gb 7200 HDD
    This is all im using right now, but I also have a 3 TB external that I use to store media and also edit from. I was bringing the footage into the internal drives to edit from but space was growing thin.
    I bought other drives to redo my entire hard drive set up while incorporating the old ones as well
    1 2 Tb internal 7300 HDD
    2 250gb SSD (They are however not the same brand.)
    If someone could please give an opinion on how they would set these up from scratch that would be swell, or you can also recommend adding in another drive into the mix as well.

    ok, the internals Im using now i can't get in to see the model numbers, but for the others they are;
    Seagate Constellation ES.3 ST2000NM0033 2 TB 3.5" Internal Hard Drive - Newegg.com
    Kingston SSDNow V200 Series SV200S3/256G 2.5" 256GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive
    SAMSUNG 840 EVO MZ-7TE250BW 2.5" 250GB SATA

  • I've bought numbers & pages from the App Store but when I open either I'm being asked to use the iWork trial or buy it - Do I have to buy iWork too, and if so, why does the App Store leet you buy the apps separately if you need iWork in order to use them?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi Jim,
    Following Matt's instructions may be sufficient, but I'd recommend checking Yvan Koenig's post in this thread for a more thorough procedure.

  • Will changing to the student plan allow you to keep your commercial licensing?

    I recently switched my creative cloud account from $50/month to the student plan that is $20/month. Will I have commercial licensing with the student plan?

    Hi Tim
    There are no restrictions on using the student/teacher plan for commercial purposes.  You just need to be a qualifying student/teacher to sign up for the plan.
    Thanks

  • Does the app store/flight control slow down your computer?

    I want to download flight control on my computer. will it slow it down or hurt my macbook pro in any way?

    No, It only takes resources when you're running it.  It doesn't take much resource even then.

  • Can you guys see your hard drive on your desktop?

    I'm use to seeing mine and I don't anymore?

    Go to the Finder's preferences in the Finder menu. In the general pane make sure that you have a check in the box for HDDs and anything else you are expecting to see.
