    I am selling my iMac G5 2005 to a friend, how do I do a factory reset?

    See my FAQ*:

    Be aware the friend should know that 10.5.8 is the maximum operating system, and if they want to use Classic, they can't upgrade it past 10.4.11.

    I use Rescue and Recovery for my backups.  
    Do you have Lenovo ONEKEY recovery program (OKR) installed on your system from the factory install?
    If so, what version?  8.0?
    There is limited documentation around about OKR. A Google/Bing search of "onekey recovery documentation will provide some items to view.
    You state: recovery discs on DVD are not an option.  .. Does this mean you do not have a DVD burner?
    I will post 3  INFORMATIONAL links.  One describes OKR 6.0, with a create recovery media on DVD or USB.
    It is my understanding, which may be wrong, Lenovo does not ship recovery discs for systems with OKR.  You must take the machine to a Lenovo shop to get HDD reset.

    I'd say you have a better chance of not loosing anything if you connect to your home computer-- but it's not certain. Yeah, I'd imagine it's very frustrating. I'm surprised Apple allows these huge updates outside of iTunes.

  • How can i do a factory reset in snow leopard without the disk to start off new without losing my other programs

    how can i do a factory reset on snow leopard without the disk to start off new without losing my programs?

    You can't. You will need a Snow Leopard disc. You can purchase replacements for your computer from Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Apple - Support - Contact Apple Support.
    A "factory reset" means you erase the drive securely. All of your files will be removed permanently. I suggest you make a backup:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
      1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
      2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
      3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
           it to the Destination entry field.
      5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
          the Source entry field.
      6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

  • How do I do a factory reset of my Hp Pavilion dv6700

    How do I do a factory reset of my Hp pavilion dv6700. I hit the F11 button but it doesn't do anything. Help

    Hi:
    If the F11 key doesn't launch the recovery manager program, then you will either have to purchase a set of recovery DVD's by reading the info at the link below...
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=bph07143&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    or, if you can read the 25 character Vista product key on the bottom of your notebook, you can make your own windows Vista installation DVD.
    Here's how:
    If you're up to a slight but rewarding challenge you can make your own if you can read your 25 character Vista product key on the PC.
    Just download the 3 files you need at the link below, and read all of the instructions to create a bootable DVD installation disk using imageburn.
    Disregard the part of the text under the first screen shot about "extract the files to the Vista folder."
    The files were already extracted to that folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screen shot.
    The other thing I noticed is on the 4th screen shot, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in myself, and then the other codes automatically populated.
    When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message that about a WIM file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.
    I selected No, make the ISO file.
    It was not that hard to do. I burned both the 64 bit disk and the 32 bit disk in case I ever need them.
    I tested both of them an my hp dc7100 CMT desktop PC, they worked perfectly.
    When you enter the product key, it knows what version of Vista you have.
    http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/softwa​re-os/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-microsoft-windows-v.​...
    After you successfully install Vista, you can then install the drivers from your PC's support and driver page.

    Yours is one of the moderate models and you will find links to all the drivers you need. My own take on this is you are going in the wrong direction. Instead of back to XP you should go forward to Windows 7, but XP can be made to work on that machine. Good luck and feel free to post back with any more questions.

  • How can I perform a factory reset on an Apple TV over a network from another room?

    I would like to either perform a factory reset or erase user account information on a third generation Apple TV located in another room preferably over a network. This would allow me to manage the devices off site over IP with different people using the device and setting up their accounts for Netflix etc. Is this possible? I have heard of this being done without jailbreaking and I am curious to how they have done it.

    Thanks Brian. It looks like the Apple Configurator app will reset settings and account info. I will look into third party apps as well. It needs to be as simple and quick as possible as we would be doing it daily to many ATVs.

  • How do I perform a factory reset on my ThinkPad tablet?

    Question 
    My tablet has been reasonably unstable from day 1, even pre-installed apps like ebuddy force close, I have tried removing and reinstalling the app but it still force closes immediately. I also have a heap of other apps that force close on my tablet but run fine on colleagues tablets (4 of us bought them together)
    How do I do a complete factory reset on this thing, I don't want just my data removed I want a fresh Android install.
    AnswerTo perform a factory reset:
    Power the unit off.
    Then hold the power button until it gives you the short vibration
    Right when it does, hit the VOLUME UP button a couple of times.  (This may take a couple of tries.)
    This will bring up a menu that includes a full factory reset.
    Use the volume buttons to move the menu selection and the power button as the "enter" key.

    i tried to install an update and now i have nothing but a tablet with a running logo. i have read everything on this site and i am very confused about what to do.  i have tried several suggestions (wiing the cache, data and trying to reboot) but i get nowhere. i am not great with the computer stuff so past the relatively simple steps i get lost inthe tech language.  going to a site and downloading to a SD card would be easy if there was just one place and not so many different ones that have multiple options and steps.   Is there a simple explanation as to what i can do to get my TPT1 working again? i dont know why Lenovo doesnt have a something to download on their website since getting bricked seems to happen often.  I called tech support and got told they couldnt help me as it was out of warranty and a new board is $575!  All they offered was what is in the manual which doesnt cover this situation as factory restore doesnt work.  i really would like to get it working again.LAlady

  • How do I perform a factory reset on an iMac

    Bought an iMac from a friend who got it as a gift. But it's locked with a password from the original owner. Can I do a factory reset on it or do I need to try to contact the original owner? Thanks

    If you have the original system DVD you can do a clean install of the OS.  Take a look at this link for installing Mac OS X 10.6.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3910

  • I have an ipod touch and dont know the password and also no longer have the computer used to sync the ipod. How can I do a factory reset to start over completely?

    I have an IPod touch and it had a password on it. I cant remember the password and do not have the computer anymore that I used to sync to iTunes. The message that I get is "iTunes could not connect to iPod Touch because it is locked with a passcode. You must eneter your passcode  on the iPod touch before it can be used with iTunes."
    How can I go back to factory setting (knowing that I will lose what is on the IPod) and use a different iTunes account.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
