F8 and F9 Boot Device Option doesn't work HP Elitebook 8470p

During the start up menu, when I press F8 or F9 it does not work and the system starts up normally. How do I make it so that F8 and F9 works? What do you think seems to be the problem? I've tried pressing the buttons once and also repeatedly and both instances the system starts normally. How do I make it so that I can get into safe mode by pressing F8 or F9 to boot device during start up without booting the hard drive?

Was the bios updated prior to this problem occuring?
Try clearing the cmos as follows.
With reference to Page 109 of your Maintenance & Service Guide remove the RTC battery.  Hold down the power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the RTC cell.
Can you access any menus at boot now?

  • I have an apple ID that I can't get to stop popping up and the 'forgot password' option doesn't work!  FRUSTRATED with iTunes

    I go into the old email account (that I don't use anymore) to see if it sends me a new password and it hasn't but I have it listed as the primary email/Apple ID for an account and I can't remember the password for it, but I can't get a new one.  SOOOOOOO FRUSTRATED.  Why can't I merge accounts and drop an old user name.  Help!!

  • Boot device option problem in HP Probook 4540s Laptop..

    Hi,
    I have installed Fedora20 in my Laptop in a separate partition. After installing it is showing
    "Boot loader has not verified loaded image"
    "System compromise hault"
    error and system went to power off state.
    To recover this I need to choos the Boot device in the Boot device option in BIOS as Fedora then it is booting Fedora20 OS.
    But in this case, in Boot device option I am getting more Fedora option with the Windows Boot Manager, Boot from EFI options.
    Please suggest what is the issue with my Lap and what I  need to do to recover this problem.
    Best Regards,
    Paulpandian M.,

    Hi Paulpandian,
    I saw two unanswered posts and as I mentioned in the other thread your Probook is a commercial product and you will get more exposure for your issues. Here is a link to the Commercial Notebook forum.  I suggest that you post all of your issues in one post so that the experts there can assist you better.
    Thank you,

  • How do i copy content from one hard rive to another through my macbook air? the copy and paste option doesn't work

    How do i copy content from one hard rive to another through my macbook air? the copy and paste option doesn't work

    It's because of the extension of the hard drive is a Windows extension ( most likely MSDOS or Ex-FAT), meaning you can only read but not write. If there are no important files (or you can copy the whole thing to your computer/mac) you can just reformat the hard drive and change the extension to NTFS (readable and writable on both windows and mac) or Mac OS Extended (readable and writable on Mac, readable on windows).
    Go to DISK UTILITY
    Choose the Hard Disk you intended
    ERASE
    You can choose either
              (I personally prefer this one, you know just in case)

  • Capitalization doesn't work as described. One can start with lower case and change to upper, but changing from upper case to any of the other options doesn't work. Is there a way around this or is this just a glitch that needs fixing?

    In Pages capitalization doesn't work as described. One can start with lower case and change to upper, but changing from upper case to any of the other options doesn't work. Is there a way around this or is this just a glitch that needs fixing?

    I think it does work as described, but the description is not very complete. Capitalization does not change any of the characters that you type; what it does is allow some of the lower case characters to display as capitals. If you copy the result and paste it as plain text, you'll see that the lower case characters are still there. It doesn't actually say anywhere that it can make capitals display as lower case, and it can't.
    The obvious way around this is to actually type what you want.
    The more powerful way is to install WordService from Devon Technologies which adds the functionality of Pages' capitalization menu as well a lot of other ones. WordService actually changes the character to the one displayed, and it works in most of the applications on your Mac.

  • 11.3 and FTF1 boot device failed

    Hi,
    I upgraded the system from 11.2 to 11.3 and applied the last patch FRU1 11.3.0.37267 FTF Roll Up 1. 400 computers are waiting for deployment bundles on boot device and nothing is working anymore. Boot device installation always working normally. I found a couple thread about this bug on this Forum since March 2014, 11.3 have this problem.
    Problem :
    Boot device installation is not working and the agent gives me always "not installed" on each bundle.
    1. system Windows 7, 64 bits and 32 bits
    2. 11.3 without Patch and with Patch fru1
    3. The Schedule time is working to deploy sofware
    4. 11.2.2 and 11.2.3 always working for boot device bundles.
    Some People opened SR and it's suppose to be fixed on fru1 but is not working

    Oh and Shaun's issue is something a little different.
    We have not gotten to the root of his issue yet, but something else is
    going on.
    At this point, there is not any confirmed issue with Boot Bundles.
    An Official Service Request could get someone digging deeper.
    However, my 1st course of order would be to simply a test environment.
    Make sure a Device does not inherit any bundles - put it somewhere else.
    Create a Simple Bundle that runs on boot that does something very simple
    such as create a directory on the Root of C:
    Then refresh to make sure the device sees it and then reboot.
    I strongly suspect you may have an issue with one more of your bundles
    that is in retry and holding everything up. You would not have seen
    that in 11.2 due to the lack of ordering and haphazard execution of the
    bundles.

  • Music App shuffle option doesn't work

    Stats: iPad 1, iOS 5.0.1
    Music App shuffle option doesn't work.  I have already reset the iPad, removed all my music and resynched.  Shuffle button is selectable, but just plays the songs in alphabetical order, even if I try to skip to another song or start anywhere on my playlist.
    So far this version of music player for apple product is disappointing, the iTunes app before never had these issues.  There are some serious bugs in this Music app, Apple your comback success was largely because of iPods and iTunes, so music is a big part of Apple users use, please fix this.

    Hello,
    Yes I believe this is a known bug in Firefox OS v1.0. [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=883781 Bug 883781].
    The bug is marked as resolved in Firefox OS v1.1. Once ZTE update the Open to v1.1 the bug will be fixed on your device.
    v1.1 of Firefox OS was officially released yesterday. Hopefully it won't be too long before it reaches the ZTE Open. See here for more details:

    HI and thank you for your email.. yes we are using a blackberry enterprise server ... but anyway
    I was trying a lot of differents methods without success. Finally I found a solution.
    This is the recets:
    1) Create a backup from the desktop software at desk's client
    2) Wipe the blackberry device
    3) Re-install the account in the blackberry device
    4) Restore the backup from the desktop software.. but PreAttetion here!! in Advance way... one by one the differents option from the checklist... because When I was trying to do a complete restore (all in the same time) the problem were the same
    I don't know if there is another best solution.. but in this case It was fine.

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

  • Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option doesn't works

    OK, guys, this is the problem...
    After YEARS of testing from Acrpbat 4 thru 9 on Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option... it doesn't works properly and doesn't got the entire site. ALWAYS get an error of memory or any other error but FINALLY you NEVER got the entire site. I'm talking for a big website... not like amazon.com, but a big one.
    I make a walkarround to try to capture the website in parts but Acrobat is not "intelligent" to make a resume capture of the site, because ALWAYS start from the begining instead from the resume position of the site...
    My question is, HOW can get the ENTIRE SITE in a PDF document... without getting errors or stopping the capture process...
    Don't have problem of low RAM memory because I'm in a MONSTER MACINTOSH.... 3.2 GHZ with 8 Core and 32 GB of RAM under Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6 in Acrobat 9 Pro.
    If I'm not wrong, the GET ENTIRE SITE option in Web Capture (Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option) doesn't works from Acrobat 4 thru 9 in Pro version... tested, you'll never got the entire site... I'm talking in capture a huge entire site and not a little one...
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks.

    Ok so I go to a web page and select something to print. Once I've clicked print I switch over from printer/micosoft xps docu writer/fax and select Adobe PDF. All goes through with a 'Create Adobe PDF' coming up progressing through to eventually save and store. Once I open the file it end up as the picture above. I have the same version on another computer and that works fine but this particular Sony laptop it doesn't seem to work properly. 

  • Automatic User Device Affinity doesn't work

    Hi, the automatic User Device Affinity doesn't work in my environment and I don't know why! The audit policies are enabled by GPO and User Device Affinity is correctly configured in SCCM. Below are some screenshots including de log of User Device Affinity.
    Anybody could help-me please?

    An old post but,
    This can happened when activating
    advanced audit policy in one of the GPO. once it was activated, it gets override the regular audit policy with different event id's that SCCM don't recognize. in addition, the machine tattooed with those settings so removing the GPO wont revert the settings.
