How can I turn my Qosmio X-500 13-R back to factory settings?

Hi everyone
I'm desperatelt seeking out for help here (it's my first time posting something on a forum) because I can find nowhere on the internet a working way to turn me qosmio x-500 13R back to factory settings !
I got this laptop a while back from my mother and I needed to change its windows to get it ready for my own usage...So I installed a win 7 students licensed windows on it but afterwards I realized that I needed to install a 64bit version instead of 32bit.
So I try to use HDDRECOVERY option of this laptop and I do the steps mentioned in its instruction manual but it doesn't work !
I have already tried 0 + powerbutton method and the F8 method ...
there must be a way to recover everything to factory settings.
thanks in advance

Qosmio X500-13R (PQX33E-04J012PL)
If you didn't create recovery discs, you can obtain them from Toshiba.
   Toshiba Europe Backup Media Online Shop
For instructions, see the section Restoring the pre-installed software from your created Recovery Discs on p. 3-11 of the User's Manual (attached).

  • How can I get my 3.0 External Hard Drive back to factory settings?

    I have a 1 terabyte external drive.  When I tried to reformat it, it went to 10.0 GB.  How can I get it back to factory settings?  Right now it's not much more then a paper weight.  Does anyone know where I can download a user manual from?  I really need help on this one.  

    Do you have the model or part number?
    Have you tried reformatting it again? What file system did you use?

  • Hello! How can I restore an iMac 10.6.5 Snow leopard to factory settings?

    Hi! How can I restore a iMac 10.6.5 Snow leopard to factory settings?

    You can reset the password via Single User Mode or you can completely remove the dslocal database and start over.
    If you want to delete the DB and start over (no user data will be deleted), follow these steps:
    1:  Boot the machine into Single User Mode (Hold down Command and S keys on boot up)
    2:  When you get to the command prompt, mount the file system as writable with this command:
         mount -uw /
    3:  Deleting the old Default node...
         rm -R /var/db/dslocal/nodes/Default
    4:   Copying Default node template...
         cp -R /System/Library/DirectoryServices/DefaultLocalDB/Default /var/db/dslocal/nodes/
    5:  Removing Shadow Hash files... (depends on history of machine)
         rm -R /var/db/shadow/hash/
    6:  Removing .AppleSetupDone...
         rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    7:  Reboot the machine with the reboot command
    That will present you with the setup assistance and no users on the machine.  Create a new account on the machine.

  • How can I tell if my macbook pro has been restored to factory settings?

    I just bought I brand new macbook pro (15,4 inch) from an official apple store... but I'm thinking that it may be used (it was a bit dirty when I opened it, but it has no scratches).
    I tried with coconut battery, but it went ok, the battery is new. However they might have changed it.
    Is there a way to know if the mac was restored to factory settings?
    ... if not, is there any other way to know if is a used laptop?
    Thanks,

    cycle count says 1... wich correspond to the initial battery discharge I just did. That's why I think they may have changed the battery.
    Serial number is C02FHFG0DF8V... how can you tell if this correspond to a refurbished unit?
    It has all the "official" envelops of a brand new mac... the thing is that I found small dust specks all over the interior of the box and in the accesories (not on the notebook itself).
    According to coconut "Age of your Mac" is 11 weeks.
    That's why I thought the only way I could knew for sure if they used it before (maybe for showcasing at the store) was finding out if it was restored to factory settings. (Also I bought it in an official apple store).

  • How can I turn my French apple account into Australian one to be able to buy a Iphoto book I've made?

    hi
    How can I turn my french apple account into an Australian one , to be able to buy a Iphoto book I 've created ?

    And you need to set the "Print Products Store" in the iPhoto Preferences "Advanced" to the country you are in. The credit card you will be using with your AppleID needs to be valid in the country your AppleID is registered to. Will you be staying permanently in Australia? Maybe it wuld be simpler to create a second AppleID just for the time of your stay there.

    my adobe illustrator is in a foreign language. how can i turn it into english?

    First please remember this is a public forum.  If you are going to respond to the thread via e-mail please remove your signature prior to responding.
    To resolve your difficulties you will need to go to the Language & Text preference pane.  Once there click on Edit List and remove all languages besides English.  You will then likely need to remove and reinstall the trial as the language setting I believe is set during the installation process.

  • How can I turn off the WLS 6.1 security in order to develop my own application-based security module?

    Dear Colleagues,
    I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
    My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit our company's needs.
    The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30 days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
    Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to find out about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and the answer we got back, was.
    Now we need to develop our own security module.
    I have 2 questions:
    1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our own application-based security module?
    2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users' password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when these expire?
    At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page and there some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can write our own security module.

    There is no power switch. You cannot turn off your Apple TV. You can only put it in standby (sleep) mode. To power the unit off your only option is to pull the plug.

  • How can I turn off the iCloud password prompt?

    Running OS X 10.10.1, on each login I'm prompted twice for an iCloud password. How can I turn this off?
    iCloud is not listed at system preferences / users and groups / login items, which is where I expect to see apps selected as startup apps. See the following screen cap - this is the dialog I'm seeing, which I want to turn off:

    If you are using iCloud at all, stay signed in at System Preferences > iCloud.  If you do not stay signed in, all iCloud series will keep prompting you for the password.

  • How can I turn my Mac using iTunes into an alarm clock?

    Here's my question: How can I turn my Mac, using iTunes, into an alarm clock?
    I want to be able to put my Mac to sleep but have it set up so that when it wakes up at the predetermined time iTunes will open and start playing the music I've selected....
    A "musical alarm clock"...
    A friend suggested using the Energy Saver option in Sys. Preferences to wake the computer at the right time. He said that then I could use iCal to start iTunes. I would then have to use an Apple Script to get iTunes to play the song I want.
    But is there a SIMPLER way to do this? Are there any programs out there that do this already??
    Thanks for any help....

    I recently got a copy of AlarmClock Pro from MacWorld UK. It is shareware, I think it is (USD?)19. I haven't had a chance to try it out much, but it does look quite good. I have an older version. The latest version looks even better.
    I'm sure there's plenty of freeware apps out there. You might also want to try looking here for an applescript here Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes
