Factory Reset not Working U310 touch

Purchased this laptop a few months ago for daughter to take to college in a few weeks. It constantly hung up and wouldn't shut down so I tried to do a factory reset using the One-Key button on the side. The screen said it worked and gave me the option of shutting down or restarting so I tried to restart but now it is just spinning. It just spins and spins (the icon) for hours. How long should this take? Should I interrupt this with a hard stop or try something else. This is the second "factory" reset I've tried and I am not getting a good feeling about this.

Definitely having issues restoring the laptop to factory defaults. It goes through the restore, then this time I opted to shutdown. Waited 15 minutes and then hit the power button. Screen just sits there displaying "Lenovo" and the rotating dots just turn and turn. It has been 10 minutes. Even my old dell boots faster than that. What do I do now? There are no optical drives and the boot option never takes me to a Bios.

I have 3X YOGA 10 freeze - factory reset not working

I bought 3 lenovo yoga B8000-F 10 January 2014 none of them work. it is frozen on the logo LENOVO. recovery factory reset not possible

Lenovo Phone Support are suggesting I take it back to the shop where I bought it (was on vacation interstate in Australia - if Lenovo want to send me the flight, I'll definitely take it back )
This looks like a firmware bug and it seems to be endemic - interesting that it's just happened for me too, roughly 100 days since purchase...
Also found that the warranty was shown on the Lenovo system as being months before purchase - my receipt is 8/1/14, their record is 23/10/13
Can not get any message out of the tablet other than that it is in Meta Mode - it won't get to Factory reset.....

I did a factory reset on my ipod touch, but now when i try turning it on it just goes to the apple screen with the loading sign

i did a factory reset on my ipod touch but now when i try turning it on it just goes to the apple screen with a loading sign, ive let my battery die and tried reconnecting but it still wont work. it doesnt even come up on itunes.

Why won't it let you sync? What happens when you try to sync it? Any error messages from iTunes? How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library? In other words, what options do you have selected from under the iPod's Music tab in iTunes? To access this tab, plug your iPod in, select it under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes, and over to the right locate and select the Music tab along the top.
Or are you trying to manually manage your iPod's contents? In other words, is the Manually manage music and videos option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab?

2nd gen iPod touch - Factory restore not working

I'm trying to factory restore my 2nd gen ipod touch. I figured I could simply choose the factory reset in the setting and it would do it's thing. Now it says it needs to connect to iTunes in order to complete the process. However, when I plug my phone into my (windows) PC, iTunes doesn't recognize it. It makes the normal sounds and starts charging, so I know the PC recognizes that it's connected, but iTunes will not. now, I can't do anything on the ipod - it just sits there like a brick, help!

Tap Settings > WiFi > your network name (or at least the one with the check mark). Tap the little blue > next to the name. Look at Device IP - if it starts with 169.x then your router has not issued you an IP address
You also should have "Renew Lease" and "Forget this Network" buttons. Try pressing Renew Lease to see if you then get a valid response from your router.
If this doesn't work you can try these things:
1. Reboot your router (just unplug the power cord for a minute, then plug back in). If this doesn't fix it, try disabling security to rule that out.
2. Reset the touch network settings - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
3. When the touch restarts, tap Settings > WiFi > other and re-enter your network name, security, and network password.
There is more troubleshooting info [in this support article|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398].
Hope this helps.

HP system restore and factory reset not completing

Hello.
1: Person tried a system restore to fix a user profile problem but once booted the OS changed the user profile to "temporary" every time, checked the original profile but only the avatar was left , all other personal info was gone.
      Working through "profiles list" in the registry and setting back to the original user profile from temp profile didn't work and went back to temporary.
      Complete erasure reset of all user profiles includig in the registry didn't work either. Went back to temporary profile.
      It was no use to save any files while the OS was in this stat as every reboot would remove the files including in the temp profile.
2: Tried all basic boot/DOS HP recovery for installed windows OS with no success, all system restore backups back several months failed.
3: Tried a factory reset twice and while it did restore for the most part with the automated drivers installed the HP recovery returns an error that factory reset did not or could not complete itself. This was attempted twice.
      While one could shut down the HP error screen in windows 8 and continue the failed reset booting error was still logged and it defaults to the HP receovery which ends up looping over and over again.
       while still in windows once the HP error is closed one can goto the usual user name and password so that was done twice and with the simplest password.
       Problems compounded when the OS rebooted and asked for user name and password, which returned "not valid" over and over again.   One time i entered the user "administrator" with the password "admin" and it worked, it started loading but then returned invalid username or password. Point being that that was not the actual user name and passowrd that was chosen and confirmed.
       This part of the problem is the same as the first problem
3A: I wiped the main and system partitions and reformatted them and ran then HP factory reset once again, it restored faster than the first attempt, however it dropped to the same username/password error and i can't even get into safe mode any longer.
Again the system boot sequence registeres the restore as incomplete but i can boot select OS which is how i am able to get into windows to test the User/pass.
4: I beleive that there is hardware malfunction with the hard drive controler in this system as i noticed that UEFI is intermitant no matter what settings you set in the BIOS/CMOS. When UEFI boot CD/DVD does appear in the boot selection it can't detect the cd/dvd drive or a USB drive "invalid device".
     Many of the boot options even when set in the bios will not always appear in the boot selector on every power up that includes legacy.
      While i can boot from CD/DVD with the legacy boot selection. I can't install windows 8 or 7 becasue the HD is A GPT and without UEFI i don't get advanced options in the windows OS install partition setup. Windows 7 or 8 won't install becasue the HD partition is a GPT format even after i wipe those paritions and make new ones with basic NTFS.
      I could LLF the HD and hope that i could install windows 7 but the UEFI being intermitent would probably return the same resutls as the HP factory reset.   Similar problem with older computers when enabling AHCI in windows.
     If i LLF the HD i loose the HP recovery completely.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hello.   The laptop is an HP Pavilion dv6 notebook PC
I have since LLF'd the HD and installed windows 8.1. It's still touchy but it's working for the time being.
A: The laptop's owner did a standard windows system restore
B: I did two windows system restores as well as backups.
C: Yes i usd the F11 at boot recovery system to run windows system restores, cleanings, and finally the factory reset. Which is obvious as i stated above that if wiped both main windows partitions and it helped the factory restore speed so only restoring an image will replace the OS on the now empty partition.
D: No i didn't keep the failed restore logs as they were randomly scrambled with all the recover cycle loops (both times).
Also i should mention that the factory restore once it failed the completion i got "insufficient sapce" error as well which i am guessing that it's trying to write the log file.
If memory serves there was only 40mb left on the recovery partition. Yes MB not GB.

Factory Reset not an option anymore

Hi, I am posting in the hope that someone might know better what exactly is going on with my brand new R61. My problem is that Factory Reset is not an option anymore in Rescue and Recovery. Short history of events: Laptop came with Vista. Shrank its partition with Disk Management. Booted from XP64 setup disk, installed it to new partition created in the unallocated space. Discovered no drivers from Lenovo, wanted to do a factory reset. ThinkVantage button didn't take me anymore to the RnR environment, instead it showed me a "Startup List" of some sort. Used Lenovo Recovery Repair to fix MBR. Blue Button still doesn't work, but F11 does, it goes into RnR. However there is no Factory State Reset option under Restore system. I don't have Recovery disks, cause their creation failed. Any ideas?

Just for variety - Hard Reset not working anyone ?

Anyone else having problems with actually getting their Time Capsule to Hard Reset (never mind the reasons for needing to reset in the first place!) ?
Depressing the reset button for 5, 10, 15 seconds doesn't produce amber blinking on the unit I'm just trying to set up, and doesn't appear to cause any changes either. And whilst depressing the reset whilst plugging in/powering on does produce fast amber blinking, once the unit eventually decides to get to a point where I can access it with Airport Utility, it does not appear to have reset to factory defaults, it still has my disk and network name, and passwords.
Anyone else experienced this ?
The above aside, I did initially get it to raise a satisfactory Airport network for a while, but then just before I attempted an initial backup of one of the several machines it's supposed to be serving, I accepted a prompted firmware upgrade to 7.3.2, and from that point on, problems: Airport Utility couldn't find it for a while, disk intermittently wouldn't mount even over ethernet, etc,etc. Noticed on the board that some were feeling 7.3.2 was dodgy, so downgraded to 7.3.1 again (what it came with, I think), and even just had a stab at 7.3 - it's just not behaving at all now, on any version, though it can still occasionally be coached into providing an Airport network, and bridging ethernet, ok.
But throughout all this, I don't think I've actually managed to get it to properly hard reset even once.
Be very grateful to hear any thoughts or comments, or of any similar experiences - otherwise I guess it's back to the shop for a swap.
Andy.

Hello moxim! Let's figure this out. I am sorry your device is still not working. After a Hard Reset, your next step would be to review warranty options. Please reply to my Direct Message, and I'd be happy to check into this further.

Screen is frozen on apple logo and standard reset not working

All of a sudden the apple logo appeared on the screen of my 6th generation ipod classic and the standard process to reset will not work although I've attempted it numerous times. I also noticed that my ipod is not being recognized by either My Computer in Windows 7 or ITunes. I need help desperately!

So you can't the iPod to boot past the Apple logo? What happens if you try to manually force it into Disk Mode? Does that work? If so, you can try connecting it to your PC and iTunes in that mode to see if that will iTunes or your PC recognize it long enough for you to perform a restore operation.

Af:query + reset not working

Hi,
I am using jdev 11g(Version 11.1.1.3.0) .
I created a view object for a table with query which has a where clause( the clause expects a date from the user).
then i dragged the All queriable attributes on the jspx page as query with table option.
it renders a search region with iinputext(case id) and input as date(calendar) and a table below it which is rendered as per the input.
Everything works normal, but when i click on the Reset button rendered in the search section, it does not clear the date field.
if i write soemthing in case id field, that is cleared on the reset but the value entered by clicking the calendar is not resetted.
Besides on reset, it does not clear the table as well. Well from what i have been reading i assume i will have to reset the table programmatically.
But i am not so sure how to approach this situation.
Will highly appreciate if i can get any suggestions or point me to appropriate links.
Thanks in advance
ash

Hi,
When i try to programmatically reset the table, it does reset it but the problem is after resetting if enter a search criteria and click on search again, nothing shows up.
If i do a search before clicking on reset, it works fine, but afer reset the search stops working??
Any idea why this could be happening?
Following is teh reset code which i am refereing
    if(QueryOperationEvent.Operation.RESET.equals(queryOperationEvent.getOperation())){
      AppModuleImpl am = this.getAm();
      ViewObject submittalVO = am.findViewObject("AcrSubmittallogView1");
       submittalVO.setNamedWhereClauseParam("bind_date", "");
       submittalVO.executeQuery();
       AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(resId1);
    queryOperationEvent.getComponent().processUpdates(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance());
on the jspx page, have added the following code in af:query component
<af:query id="qryId1" headerText="Search" disclosed="true"
                              value="#{bindings.ImplicitViewCriteriaQuery.queryDescriptor}"
                              model="#{bindings.ImplicitViewCriteriaQuery.queryModel}"
                              queryListener="#{bindings.ImplicitViewCriteriaQuery.processQuery}"
                              *queryOperationListener="#{backingBeanScope.backing_SubmittalLog.resetListener}"*
                              binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_SubmittalLog.q1}"
                              resultComponentId="::resId1"
                              saveQueryMode="hidden" />Thanks

HT1414 The screen is non responsive, does not work to touch. I have restored it 3 times now. Is there a permanent solution to this problem ? We have a total of 6 Ipods in this house not including Iphones. I keep loosing purchased apps!!!

This is the 3rd time in less than 2 months that I need to restore my Ipod 3rd gen because it does not respond to touch commands. What can I do to resolve this problem ?

If it keeps happening after restoring to factory settings/new iPod (not from backup) that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Reset NOT Working

For the past month my Time Machine hasn't been able to keep its network up for more than about 5 minutes. Sometimes when I do a hard reset (take out the power and ethernet internet feed cables then re-plug them after a couple minutes) it will come back and the network will work (though only for 5-10 minutes). Other times the reset does not work at all.
The obvious reasons for this being annoying are: I can't get on the web and I can't back up my computer.
Anyone have any thoughts?

You may do better in the Time Capsule or Airport forums, as many of us here (like me) aren't very familiar with them.
Those forums are hidden in the DIgital Life section, at: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=140
