Have to do a clean install of ea2700 after power goes out.

This is about to cause me to buy another router. This will be the 4th clean install that I have had to do. If my power, or my internet goes down, a regular proper reboot / or reset, will not get my ea2700 back online. It takes uninstalling & deletion of the stored Application Data files.

Okay, I have just reinstalled & it is working fine. Oddly, I did not get a request to update the firmware this time, like I have before. I did select the last time, that I did not want to be using the cloud & apps. Maybe this is why? Although, on previous installs, it has asked every time & I selected the same answer each time.
Here's some of the info from the Cisco Connect Router details:
Model name: Linksys EA2700
Model number: EA2700
Firmware version: 1.0.14.129982
Operating system: Windows XP SP 3
Software version: 1.4.12051.0
Connection type (WAN): DHCP

I have just made a clean instalation of Lion, with a bootable disk, and I planned to restore my files (music, photos, etc.), The installation run perfectly, but Lion doesn't find my backup files. So, I'm about to loose all of my iTunes library, work documents (I'm a lawyer!!), my kid's photos.... How can I restore my files?? Help!!

Since you seem to be using a new disk for Lion, Time Machine will consider previous backups to be for a "different" computer. Try doing a control-click or click-and-hold on the Time Machine icon in the Dock, then choose "Browse Other Time Machine Disks". This should allow Time Machine to see the previous backups.
In the worst case you should be able to open those Time Machine backups and copy your documents from there to your home folder.

10.7.2 clean install: cannot login after sleep

so after getting bricked this morning, I have done a new clean install of Lion, updated to 10.7.2 and went to work. back I come, Mac is in sleep, and it does not accept my user password anymore.
just great.
no file vault on this time.
10.7.2. is pure nightmare for me so far.
force reboot let me boot again (and log-in!).

I have the exact same issue- any help on how to fix this would be great.
In the meantime - I have found a workaround which is a bit of a pain - but allows you to keep your session going.
1) When you come out of sleep and don't have the option to use the fingerprint login and the password doesn't work click on "switch user"
2) When that screen comes up click on the arrow next to the red (shutdown) button and select "hibernate".
3) After the machine hibernates resume windows by hitting any key
4) You should now be able to sign in using your account password and resume your session.
This is not ideal - but until someone can come up with a real fix - it works and allows you not to have to restart windows and lose your session data.

Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
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.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

I tried to install latest OS update. Recd error installing. IT tried to load the upgrade in Safe Mode. Now system will not boot up. IT says I have to do a clean install which loses all data.

After receiving an error when I try to install the latest update of OS-X, I took my laptop to oour schools IT dept. They tried to run the update in safe mode and then they got an error saying the system could not find the hard drive. Now they want to run a clean install which loses 1000's of docs and pictures. I have Block I exams in med school next Monday and all of my notes and slides are on that hard drive.
The IT dept took the hard drive out and tried to back it up and they said they other computer could not connect or find my hard drive.
Major panic....
I have Norton antivirus and have never found any viruses on the system. I also have a program called ExamSoft which some other students here have noted they had similar crashes. Not sure if that is the issue...

Several take home messages here:
always back up before you update.
always back up anything you don't want to lose. Kind of like flossing. Only floss the teeth you don't want to lose.
Norton is very, very bad software, and you should get rid of it.
You don't need antivirus software on your mac. Antivirus software on macs causes more trouble than it is worth.
Your hard drive may be failing and thus may not be salvageable.
You could try booting into the recovery partition and seeing if you can repair your hard drive.
If that doesn't work, then there is a small chance that a third party utility (like Disk Warrior or TechTool) might be able to fix your drive (if it is not failing).
If that doesn't work, you may be able to send your drive and a lot of cash to a drive recovery service and see if they can get your files off it.
In the mean time, get notes and slides from a (smart) friend.

I cannot connect to the login page of my banking websites for Firefox but can from IE also firefox does not close when I shut it down I have just done a clean instal of windowsws7 and teh problem persists on reinstall of FF3.6.13

I can connect with my banking websites but the login page will not come up. This is a recent occurrence and I have done virus scans and have also recently done a clean instal of Windows 7. The problem persists. I can connect to any other website with no problems. When I close FF it appears to close and Task manager shows as not running but it will not reopen. If I attempt to uninstall I am told that FF is running and needs to be closed. I have to reboot to get to close and be able to reopen.
I can connect to the bank sites with IE. However I really don't like IE.
I am using Win7 Professional on a Sony notebook VGN SZ55

I don't have an answer, but I experienced the same problems trying to set up an airport express to route traffic to my stereo.
Apple Extreme router, iMac and laptop all worked just fine for months, upon installing Airport Express (step by step, according to instructions), all **** broke loose. Airport Utility was unable to see my Airport Extreme router, after hours of rebooting computer, cable modem, router, and finally a hard reset of the Airport Extreme router, it is finally recognized by Airport Utility again.
Recreated network, iMac connects to the internet just fine, laptop (Macbook Air) connects to the network just fine, but will not connect to the internet. Network diagnostics does not help, it gets to the "do you have a router? If so, reboot" stage, and never seems to see the router.
Any suggestions?

Need Instructions For Clean Install Of Drivers After Refor

Hi, I will be reformatting my hard dri've and doing a clean install of Windows XP Pro SP . I have the CD for upgrading to SP2. I am not a novice with regard to reformatting and reinstalling drivers. However, my Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro was purchased only a few months ago and installed after uninstalling an NVidia Geforce card. Would I install the OS (and all patches) prior to installing the video and then audio drivers? Previously I have installed the OS, video, audio, modem, and then all of the upgrades from Windows Update. I have been all over the Knowledge Base and have downloaded the upgrades (drivers and applications) for my Soundblaster sound card. I also read in here to use the original CD and then update the drivers and software applications. I am getting more confused as I go. I apologize for the long post. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

TechSavvyFreddy,
Here is what I would do:
) Install OS and completely update it first and foremost
2) Install latest chipset drivers and software for motherboard
3) Install Video and Update completely
4) Install the Sound Card from CD then Update completely
5) Install other components.
That is the best way to assure you get the system set up properly and have all the software installed.

My computer says I cannot use icloud because I have multiple versions of outlook installed. How do I find out which versions are installed and how do I decide which one to delete?

That's a Windows/Office problem. You should ask in the Microsoft support forums.

Need to do a clean install of FF31 after bad sectors on HDD caused installed FF to crash Windows upon opening.

After running MRT update on Windows XP SP3, I rebooted my PC, and CHKDSK found and repaired four bad sectors on my HDD. After this, starting Firefox 31.0, even in Safe Mode, would cause Windows to freeze at the point the FF window appeared. No menus, no toolbars, just the window with the basic frame, but nothing inside it. All input devices were non-responsive, forcing me to do a hardware restart of my machine.
Upon restart, everything else worked fine until I tried to start FF - then the OS froze again.
Searching Firefox support, all answers I could find suggested deleting old (possibly corrupt) profile data with Profile Manager before reinstalling FF - but, if FF freezes the machine upon starting, there is no way to do that.
How do I MANUALLY delete all old profile data, other Firefox data files, and registry entries from my PC so that I can do a clean install of FF 31.0?
NOTE: The information given about my browser under "More System Details" is mostly WRONG. I am currently using the only browser that works - the outdated Orca Browser v1.2 with a Firefox 3 core. It is FF 31.0 that I am asking help with.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

You must totally remove Firefox. It sounds like part of it's programing
was corrupted. Then '''[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Download Firefox Full Installer All languages]''' {web link}
After installing, try FF. If your user file are okay, Great!
*1 Download the Full installer and put it somewhere.
*2 Rename your current '''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Maintenance Service''' and '''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox'''. Add a '''X''' in front of the name (for example).
*3 Run the disk check '''AGAIN''' just to be sure.
*4 Now get the full installer and run it.
*5 After the installer is done, then try out FF.

Trying to do clean install from USB after kernel problem

MacBook Pro 13" Mid 2010
- was running OS X v 10.9
- 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
Machine was running extremely slow, unable to do anything with it. When booted to safe mode, lag issue was not present. Booted to Disk Utility, left column showed (photoshoped to show how it looked originally):
Verified and repaired Macintosh HD and disk1 - OS X Base System, no problems.
Booted Option R - Erased Macintosh HD, tried to do new install from online, failed 3 times (took in excess of 8 hours each time). Still lagging, mouse movement very irratic.
Reset SMC, and NVRAM, some improvemet with mouse movement and speed
Read suggestions online to erase entire drive, boot from USB to DU, and install from bootable USB. Tried to do that. When in the boot from screen (Option) mouse lag not apparent. Chose USB, it opened up DU. Erased Macintosh HD again. Cannot delete or unmount OS X Base System, new screen looks like this:
From this screen, I exit back to the first screen and select Install OS X Mavericks, it gives me the choice to install on USB or Macintosh HD, I chose the latter, follow the steps, get a screen saying it's installing then it brings me back to DU after about 10 min. What am I missing here? Do I need to partition Macintosh HD creating a boot portion? I'm not a Mac person, I'm trying to fix this for my son.
Can I even do an install on Macintosh HD? I get that prior to booting to USB, I was using disk1, and so it couldn't be erased, but booting from the USB, would I not be using DU from the USB, and therefore able to clean the HD and start fresh? I'm guessing that the boot disk is causing the lag, and want to get rid of it.
Or is the disk showing disk3: OS X Install ESD accessible someone to do the install and I'm just going in circles?
I'd be extremely appreciative of any help you could provide, thank you.

Try this: (1) On your Mac mount the disk in the Time Capsule (probably called "Data"). (2) In the "Data" volume locate and mount the "sparsebundle" image that contains the "old" backups. (3) Click-and-hold on the Time Machine icon in the Dock, then choose from the pop-up menu the option to "Browse Other Time Machine Disks". That should give you access to the old files.

How to fix everything when power goes out during install? [SOLVED]

last night I was installing kde and during the install process the power went out. I tried uninstalling kde, but pacman said dependencies were missing (I need dependencies to remove stuff?), so I tried reinstalling the kde group and that seems to have worked.
What is the best way to recover from something like this and how can I be sure everything is now fixed?
Last edited by RiceKills (2010-05-31 21:58:05)

you can skip pacmans dependency checks with the argument -d.
as far as i know, you can't fix files that were destroyed by a power outage.
in my experience, it's rather rare that power loss destroys files (provided you use a stable file system).
usually it's sufficient to do a thorough file system check with the repair option enabled (don't do this while the filesystems are mounted or at least mount them read-only). usually you can invoke such a file system check with shutdown -Fr now.

I have my AIR plugged into another monitor and after it goes to sleep sometimes it sounds like the system is running and it will not come back up.. I have to restart it. What is this.. Please help

I have a macbook air and i have it hooked to another monitor and I love it but lately it has after it goes to sleep for a while it sounds like it is trying to run the drive or fan really hard and when I try to bring it alive it does not come back to life so I have to hard boot it and then restart it. What is this...

Go into Sys. Pref , and power settings and UNcheck "put hard disks to sleep" on both power tab and battery tab.
When on projector use with your Air and a presentation, dont close the monitor or sleep your Air.
Verify any coincident applications running that can/could conflict with projector / sleep occurrence by running Etrecheck:

I have an iPad (retina display), installed 8 and now I am out of usage. It shows I used 12.2 with 0 bytes available. I have deleted most of my pictures, apps and still no luck.

I Have an iPad retina display. It worked great with 7 but I updated to 8.0.2 and now I have usage problems. It shows my usage of being 12.2 and I have 0 bytes available. It seems that this problem occurred after I installed 8. I regret doing that. Is there anything I can do? I have cleared out most of my pictures and apps. I am down to bare bones.

A restart or reset might help. Either turn it off and restart it as stated above. Or give it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds, When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot.
Then go into settings,general, usage and see what's taking up the room.
