Getting ready to sell, help appreciated!

Hey guys, Im getting ready to sell my 8330 on Sprint and I want to make sure I get this thing completely wiped clean. I did the Wipe clean in the security settings, I removed all media, I just want to make sure when I sell it the next person wont be able to restore it at all. I want to take my Sim card out right? Is their anything im forgetting? Thanks for the help!

hello,
what is your question ?
1) it's easy to put the microSD card in. Just keep in mind that the metal part is like a door. Open the door by sliding it (there are little arrows on it), put the memory card in it, close the door, then slide to lock the door.
2) he memory card belongs to you, there are datas on it ; I don't know if they are erased by the wiping but I doubt it. I think you don't want the new owner to find pictures of you in your bathroom.

Clearing A OS X 10.6.5 getting ready to sell it

Hey guys and gals I am looking at getting a macbook and selling my mini. Does anyone know the best and most secure way to delete any data saved on my machine?
Thanks James

Boot up the Mac Mini with the install disc that shipped with it when it was new. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Click the Erase tab, then click the Security Options button. Choose "Zero out data", or an even stronger overwriting algorithm if you want. When it's done, all the old data will be gone.

uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

HT1212 I am unable to get our of a continuous cycle when trying to update or restore my iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.

When I tried to update my iPad I got an error 9. Now, I am unable to access my iPad. It is in a continuous cycle when I try to update or restore the iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.
Here's the cycle:
I plug in my iPad when “cable to iTunes shows on iPad screen. It says "Your iPad can't be updated, you must restore it to factory settings." That bad enough news, but it gets worse.
Click Restore
Extracting software…
Preparing iPad for restore
Waiting for iPad…
Verifying iPad restore with Apple…
(empty bar under the Apple logo…does not show any activity)
“The iPad “iPad” could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).”
Notes: I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) in the last week. It’s the first time I’m tried to backup/update my iPad since the iMac update.
I swapped out the USB cable to a new cable and get the same results.
I also unplugged all other USB devices from the iMac and security on my iPad and still get the same results.
I find it strange that it shows no Serial number for my my iPad 2 when plugged in. It shows “Serial Number: n/a on the screen when it displays: “iPad Recovery Mode To update your iPad without erasing its contents, click Update. To restore your iPad to its factory settings, click Restore iPad.
I prefer to update my iPad, but it displays “Your iPad can’t be updated, you must restore it to factory settings. If you previously backed up the iPad, click Restore Backup after the restore process completes.”
It’s a continuous loop. I get the display on my iPad to plug in the iPad to iTunes, plug it in which ends after going through the above procedure saying an error occurred (9).
So now I cannot use my iPad. When I turn it on I get the display showing me to plug it into iTunes with the cable. Since this is the only option I have I plug it in and the loop begins.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello jaybearden,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iOS device since you get an error 9. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Check your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.

I was trying to sync my 120GB iPod Classic earlier and it said it couldn't sync as the iPod disk could not be "read" or "written to". I now can't get anything onto my iPod, and I was wondering if it is a hard drive problem? Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Did you go into iTunes to change the location of your media files? if not you will need to go into iTunes and click on preference and select the advance tab then click the iTunes Media folder location. Select the location of your on external hard drive.

I solved the problem! The updates orignally were downloaded to the C: drive of the server. I've since moved them to the E: drive and for some reason the Content folder in IIS didn't change the file path to the new WSUScontent folder.
The root cause for this was failing to use the UTILITY designed for this very purpose.
I edited the virtual directory settings in IIS and was able to put the correct path in.
You still need to use the UTILITY.. to fix all the other stuff you're still missing.
In the %ProgramFiles%\Update Services\Tools folder...
WSUSUTIL MOVECONTENT E:\WSUS E:\WSUS\MoveContent.LOG -SKIPCOPY
This problem was caused by moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.
No. This problem was caused by IMPROPERLY moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.

You won't be able to restore a device running iOS 4.2 from a backup of a device running iOS 5 (as you found out). And the Iphone 3G can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1 so there is no way to migrate from his iPhone 4 back to his iPhone 3G. He would have to at least have an iPhone 3GS, which will update to iOS 5.1 and would be able to restore from the iPhone 4 backup. Unfortunately, there isn't any way around it.

My iPhone 5c is stuck onto zoom I cannot get into phone as buttons too large for pass code to press and hence lockdown after several attempts can't get access to settings tried turning off and on and also took sim out and back any help appreciated

mmy I phone 5 c is stuck on large close up (zoom)
i therefore can't get into the phone as the pass code to get in is difficult to get everytime you get two numbers I you can't get the other two
so this has caused the lockdowns ..many times... I am now waiting to try again in 23 minutes but same thing will happen again as all the numbers are not displayed on the screen
i I don't know if I have done anything as it was all working fine up to last night and been like this ever since
i I have taken out the sim and put back
aany help appreciated thanks

There are two ways to turn off Zoom:
1. Connect to iTunes. Go to the iPhone summary pane and click the "Configure Universal Access" button. Then turn Zoom off.
2. Double-tap the phone's screen with three fingers. Then go to Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> Zoom and tap the Zoom On/Off switch.

Getting my 3G ready to sell

I'm sorry if this is the wrong category for this..wasn't quite sure where to put it. I recently upgraded to an iPhone 4 from my 3G. I would like to sell my 3G but I wasn't quite sure what exactly I needed to do to get it ready to sell. I am with AT&T so its locked to them. I know on the phone there is a reset option to reset all settings on the phone. But do I leave my SIM in or take it out? Thanks for any info!

I have one more concern..I just reset the phone..I did erase all content and settings. I'll be removing the SIM before I sell it. When the phone is on all its showing is the connect to itunes picture. I'm assuming this is normal and whoever buys it will have to put their sim in or get a new one, then connect the phone to their computer to restore it to factory settings then transfer their stuff? I just want to make sure I won't be selling a brick to anybody.

I am having difficulty downloading tunes from iCloud to my PC. I am getting an error message 5000 'not enough access privileges' I have checked and seem to have full access. Help appreciated!

I am having difficulty downloading purchased tunes in iCloud to my PC. I get error code 5000 and a message "not enough access priviledges" I have checked this out and seem to have full rights. I could download tunes before they put them on iCloud. Any help appreciated.

This refers to permissions on your computer which must have been changed. Start by using Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then do the following:
Reset User Permissions and ACLs in Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
From the Utilities menu select Terminal. At the Terminal prompt enter: resetpassword. Press RETURN. When the window opens select your startup drive where it says "Select the volume containing the user account:" At the bottom of the window you will see, "Reset Home folder permissions and ACLs." Click on the Reset button.

I have bought a new computer and backed up off time machine backup now I cannot open photoshop get error code 150 30 help appreciated.?

Have you updated your iTunes on your computer? WIth a device running iOS7, you need iTunes 11.
When you removed iTUnes, did you see something named 'apple mobile device support' or something like it? (The exact name varies from operating system to operating system). If you see that, uninstall it too. That's the drivers for your iPhone and they should self-install when you plug your device in.
If all that is fine, have you checked your cable and USB port? a malfunctioning cable can keep you from syncing.

Thanks for the details, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When using the Droid RAZR M and default email client, Hotmail passwords can be updated more efficiently by completely removing http://vz.to/1FgwQ3a readding http://vz.to/1FgwQ3m the email account. Here are the steps to do so . Please keep us posted on how this works.
