Factory Reset now will not boot, No WebOS doctor available in profile

I did a factory reset on my HP Touchpad to give to my son as a christmas gift. However, I boot the system up then select English, Then select the Country United States and the system hangs Its been doing this for a couple days. I then shut down the system turned it back on and does the same thing over and over. I go to my www.palm.com and log in and the WebOS doctor does not show up on my profile. Does anyone know how to install the software back on the TouchPad so I can get it back up and running?

They are .jar files. These are executable java files. Some browsers have been known to change the extension to .zip by mistake. Try using a different browser to d/l the file.
Go to www.java.com and let the website check your installation for the latest version.
Be sure you have the latest install of java on your PC.
Did you get the large USB symbol before proceeding? You will need the novacom drivers.
If the process fails, rinse and repeat! Reboot everything (you have tried holding both power and center buttons depressed on the TP for >15 seconds, right?) and try again.
Good luck, and be patient - I've seen the doctor pause for 10 - 15 minutes before proceeding...

That link is for the flasher tool, you'll need that to repair the device..
Here are the steps.. you'll need to follow them pretty accurately:
turn phone off
remove battery
put battery back in
plug USB cable into computer
Press and hold down the 'u' button on the keyboard.. don't let it go
plug USB cable into phone
wait until the Nokia logo appears, a little USB icon should appear in the top right corner of the screen. the backlight MAY NOT turn on at all
release the 'u' button
run the flasher tool: flasher-3.5 --enable-rd-mode
The flasher prog should run for a moment then finish. If it DOES NOT and sits waiting for suitable device, STOP.. this is bad..
Ok, if all that went well, now for the repair bit
unplug the USB from the phone
The phone will power off or reboot
If the phone turned off, turn it on with the power button
let the phone boot up.. it may take some time.. some reports say you might need to enter the date/time again..
If it doesn't boot STOP.. something has gone bad..
Ok, if the phone booted ok, finish off
Turn the phone off with the power button
remove battery
reinsert battery
press and hold the 'u' button
insert USB cable into phone
wait until the Nokia logo appears as before
release the 'u' button
run the flasher tool again: flasher --disable-rd-mode
wait for flasher to finish.. if it sits waiting for suitable device STOP.. something has gone wrong.. it shoudl run for a few seconds then stop.. anything else is bad
Remove USB cable from phone
phone might restart or turn off.. if it turns off, turn it on..
Hopefully you're fixed and up and running..
Let us know how you get on
Anyone else reading this, don't just follow the instructions if you're unsure.. ASK someone first.. This proceedure is subject to change in the future when new firmware is released and tools are updated

CRIO startup directory was typed STARTUP and now will not boot. How do I recover from this error or how do I rename the directory when my proxy server is read only due no startup files?

I loaded files on the cRIO but used upper case letters for the startup directory. Now I cannot access the RIO since it didn't boot. The proxy server comes up read-only so I can't reload the files or change the directory. I tried the RS232 port but I can't get it to respond to commands even though I can see the processor boot.

There is NO need to put your entire question into the subject line of your post.

Solaris 10 - system hung, and now will not boot

I have a SunFire V240 with 2 73 SCSI disks running Solaris 10. Only the first disk has been formatted. The box was newly installed last week.
It had 2 zones set up on it and one of them was running a service out of it (called knowledgetree). I came in this morning (monday), and although I could ping the main server and the zone, I could not ssh to the box. I hooked up a console cable to the box, and there was nothing.
I then went to the OK prompt and typed boot.
It said
1} ok boot disk2
Boot device: /pci@1c,600000/scsi@2/disk@0,0:a File and args:
Can't open boot device
{1} ok
I then typed
{1} ok setenv auto-boot? false
auto-boot? = false
{1} ok reset-all
followed by
{1}ok probe-scsi
Target 1
Unit 0 Disk SEAGATE ST373207LSUN72G 045A
If I type the following I get the results below.
{1} ok show-disks
a) /pci@1c,600000/scsi@2,1/disk
b) /pci@1c,600000/scsi@2/disk
c) /pci@1e,600000/ide@d/cdrom
d) /pci@1e,600000/ide@d/disk
q) NO SELECTION
Enter Selection, q to quit: a
/pci@1c,600000/scsi@2,1/disk has been selected.
Type ^Y ( Control-Y ) to insert it in the command line.
e.g. ok nvalias mydev ^Y
for creating devalias mydev for /pci@1c,600000/scsi@2,1/disk
Does anyone have any ideas on what happened, or what I have to do to get the OS to boot again. I am a bit of a nubie when it comes to Solaris .... I am not sure what happened, or why all of the sudden the server will not boot.
Thanks for the help
Peter

Usually you can just do a "boot disk" or "boot disk1"
devalias will show you what actually devices the short alias map too.
It might be a faulty drive bay.
Try pulling it out of one and plugging it into another.
The do the probe-scsi again.
Then put it back into the first to confirm....

Slow and now will not boot

I have a 10 month old 20 imac, and it had been running a little slow and was going to upgraded the memory in the next week. But now it will not boot at all.
Last night it locked up I restarted and verified the disc, it passed. All the hardware passed. I started to try and back up my file from thecomputer and came up with file unreadable then it locked up again and now it will not boot. It chimes shows the apple screen then freezes on the blue screen. I have tried the safe boot, to run the test from the install disc, boot from the disc and all I get is a blue screen..
I seem to be reading about what seem to be a lot of the I macs suddenly slowing down, and from what I am gathering it seems MAC may have a batch of hard drives that fail around the year mark, with no warning until complete failure.
Does anybody have any suggestions

Hi CC
I have a 7 month old 20" iMac and have had no problems. Suffice to say, you should definitely take your 10 month old back to where you bought it. Locking up and freezes and it passed the AHT sounds scary.
Return it.

G4 updated to 10.4.7, now will not boot up

I didn't realize all of the updating issues with 10.4.7 or I would not have updated. Now my computer won't start up. This is what I did:
1. Ran Software Update for 10.4.7
2. Rebooted computer.
3. HP error message appeared about "shared Library" problem
4. Used Spotlight to remove HP printer utilities ( I don't have an HP printer anymore.)
5. reboot
6. HP error message did not come up, Yeh!
7. Tried to open a doc in Appleworks. Error message comes up about "shared library" problem.
8. Checked out this site.
9. Rebboted computer and zapped PRAM (opt-cmd P-R)
10 Computer will not boot up. I get the message "restart your computer using the power switch or reboot button. This message repeats everytime.
Help. I don't want to take this to the shop. It's an Apple and I was only doing an update!!!! How could this be?
Thanks,
Kathryn

Thank you for your help and I will have to try those suggestions if I try to update to 10.4.7 again.
Before I read your post, I started the computer from the original Panther discs (Held down "c" while rebooting) and did a series of "software updates" until I was back to where I started. All of my system information and files were fine. Although Quicktime is not working quite right.
I will be more careful with "software upsdates" after this experience.

Help please. My mac book pro did a java update and now will not boot oot.

As it says above. Since doing a java update automatically and then shutting down on me.. my mac book will not boot properly.
I can get it to boot in safe mode eventually, usually after 5 to 10 mins of waiting, but will not boot into mormal mode.
How do i cure this?.   I have tried disk utility and this saus alls ok.

Imac told me to restart and now will not boot up?

Hi,
I have an imac 20" intel (not the new aluminium one but the white version) which I have had for a few months. Today i was using it and all was normal until I had a grey swoosh thing come doen over the screen from top to bottom and then a black box telling me in several different languages that i had to re-start my mac by holding down the power button. I did this but now my imac will not turn on at all. When I hit the power button, all that happens is the white light at the bottom of the screen lights up and stays on constantly?
I have tried booting up in Safe mode (by holding down shift), single user mode (apple + s) and tried booting off of the install disc ( by holding down C) but nothing happens.
I have even tried mounting the hard drive on to my powerbook using target disc mode but the imac never gets past the stage where the light comes on - I do not even hear the start up chime?
I am thinking my hard drive has packed up but am not sure? any ideas?
Can anyone help?
thanks
Steve

Hello Steve,
Unfortunately you suffered a Kernel Panic. The best guide I know troubleshoot them is this (link)one by Apple Discussion's user Dr Smoke.
It's worth disconnecting all 3rd party devices during inv and removing any RAM you've added recently.
Good luck.

Imac freezese an now will not boot up

I have a 24in imac late 2006 which has recently been difficult to wake up with screen pixilation etc. Now it just freezes as soon as you touch anything and I cannot even get it to boot up now. Have reset smc and pram and now just have a blank screen. Have read how there is a problem with video card over heating but think it might even be more than that. Have applecare thank goodness.

I had the same thing happen to my 2006 24" iMac - the screen image had a strange grid pattern covering it, and I couldn't get past the grey apple loading screen before what looked like a kernel panic.
I took the mac in for repair at my local Apple-Authorised place, and it turned out to be a defective graphics card causing the problem. It was replaced, and now things seem to be running fine once more.
I suggest getting your mac checked out :o)

Replace hard drive, now will not boot

Pavilion dv7-6b78us was running windows ultimate
Had to put a new hard drive the factory one died unexpectedly. Had a 700 gig I think. now have a 350 gig. replaced HD and proceeded to run all the test to make sure it was alright. When I tried to install windows I keep getting No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key. I have tried setting it to boot of the internal CD/DVD, didn't do any thing, tried booting of a flash drive copied the OS to the flash drive and set it to boot from Flash memory, still did nothing. Set it to boot from an external cd\dvd usb drive put a new copy of windows in the drive still nothing. Have been in roxio to make a boot disk and copied windows 7 again still nothing happened. I am a collage student and I need to get this thing up and running, any help would be greatly appreciated

Having same problem! I need help also!

Previously rock solid MacPro ('08) crashed and now will not boot up past a screen of black, grey and white blocks covered in pink artefacts. Lion recently installed. Can this old warhorse be saved?

Yesterday the trusted and loyal MacPro froze and on reboot kept going straight to a screen which looks like a modern art collaboration between Kasparov, a robot and the ghost of Jackson Pollock. You can see the artwork in the pictures below.
Lion has recently been installed.
Main programmes used are Logic and Final Cut Pro.
I have taken the machine apart and dusted everything down, talked sternly to the ciruit boards, offered bribes to the CPU and even played it Salsa - I figured that this works in breaking the spirits of kidnappers, so it may work with the hard disk.
Nada.
There is a suspicion lingering that the computer was aware of a make or break week of editing coming up and decided to stop working in protest (it is getting on a bit), so I let it rest for a bit before trying another reboot.
Still no luck.
Short of going Basil Fawlty on it, is there anything I can do?
Help!

Time to put it aside to pasture.... the 8800GT has some known issues.
Better to replace it now while you can.
As for your system, w/o another gpu but I'd give 99.999% that you are fine.
For dust I juse a powerful 500W.
http://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-ED500-500-Watt-Electric/dp/B001J4ZOAW/
Other than the card working its way loose (hard to do) or the 6-pin aux power cable being loose etc.
Someone said that "post Lion" that many Mac Pro owners have not been able to use their OEM DVD with Apple Hardware Test (the test is on a hidden partition).
$249 isn't totally bad investment to keep it running.
Other than FBDIMMs self destructing and being fried @ temps above 72*C and having errors of some sort... which is also solvable.
And while / IF you can, make sure you have made bootable clone of your system and data, and have some kind of current TimeMachine backup.

IMac hard drive keeps going down and now will not boot up.

This is my first post here so I hope I am in the correct area. I recently purchased a iMac 24" Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, 2.16GHz, 2GB RAM. It ran well at first but now I keep getting errors that say "There has been a problem with your system, you must turn off the computer by pressing and holding the power button on the back of the panel". This has been happening more and more often.
I took it to a local Apple auth repair shop. The guy looked at it for 10 minutes, said everything is fine and sent me home.
Now when I turn the computer on all I get is a blank white screen that never changes.
I just switched from PCs to Macs, I have to say that I am more then a little frustrated with how poor the computer has been. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do now. I do have the Applecare for another 26 months. Thank you.

"There has been a problem with your system, you must turn off the computer by pressing and holding the power button on the back of the panel".
This means Mac OS has crashed. Mac OS shouldn't crash too often. You should give applecare a call. They'll probably tell you to re-install the OS.

IMac super slow and now will NOT boot up

My iMac G5 (non-intel, non-isight) has been slow for a few days. I've tried to isolate it to an application but couldn't really find anything. We didn't install any new applications before it started slowing down.
So I ran software update, installed 10.4.8, shut down, and then it never restarted! It goes to the gray screen with the Apple mark and the little circle loading indicator. But it gets stuck there.
Apple Care is closed for the weekend so I need help. Help!

To Apple Discussions!
Which model G5 iMac with no isight?
