I assume you have backup of all your data to restore from before doing this as everything on your hard disk will be erased during this process.

  • How Do I Reformat The Hard Drive?

    Hello,
    I just bought aToshiba Satellite P505-S8940 laptop.  It did not come with a recovery disk.  I had to use their Recovery Disc Creator to make copies of 2 system recovery disks and 2 application disks.  I would like to know how do I reformat the hard drive?  Thanks!

    Hi,
    Shutdown the notebook.  Tap away at f11 as you start to access Recovery Manager which you can then use to reinstall the Operating System.

    I m using photoshop cs 3 and Illustrator cs3.

    Illustrator seems to have more options to create effects?

    Suggest you are unaware of the fundamental difference between Illustrator and Photoshop. Photoshop is an raster image editor. It works by adjusting and moving pixels. Pixels are like tiny Legos that make up an image. Look closely enough and you can see the Legos. Illustrator is a vector graphic editor. It works by manipulating the shapes that an image appears to be made from.
    The web page you're looking at is a good example. Each letter is a shape that is scales to size and positioned according to the HTML layout instructions in the page's code. If you were to edit this page as a vector (Illustrator) you could be-size or reposition the frames that determine where text goes. You could edit the text, move letters and words around, change the font or the size of the text, and more.
    If you were to edit the page as a raster (Photoshop). You'd be more limited in some ways, since all you'd be working with is the image of the text, not the text itself. You wouldn't necessarily be able to do
    less. You'd be using different tools. If what you wanted was to edit the text or reformat it, then Illustrator would have the right tools for that job. If you wanted to blur the text or erase some of it as if wiping an eraser over the page, then Photoshop would have the better tools for that job.
    Without seeing the image you tried to post, I'm going to assume it's a realisitic looking illustration, like
    this one. That was drawn by a pro with years of experience with Illustrator and years more skill as an artist. If you want to make that image, you're going to have to go to school for a long time.

  • How to make a backup of your stuff? and Command+tab question

    First of all, is there an alternative to using a different Command+tab button? OR the F3 button to switch between windows? A lot of times I have more than ONE safari window open and I want to Command tab but Command+tab won't show the OTHER safari sites open. I use the F3 button also but is there another way to ALT+tab to DIFFERENT safari/firefox windows like on the Windows OS?
    I was just wondering if IN TIME, Mac's will start running slower (like PC's) as you put more programs in. I know from experience, even by just staying on trusted sites, in about 2+ years your windows vista/7 will be a little slower. How do I reformat a Mac (factory reset) and besides backing everything up on a DVD, is there a way to backup my files?
    Sorry for these nub questions, I only had this for like a month xD

    Welcome to the Mac world!
    Mac OS let's you fully customize the keystrokes which you can quickly move between the windows you want. You will find these settings under System Preferences and Expose & Spaces under the personal area.
    When you are in here, you can assign a different keys, or secondary key, to active the show all windows (what you are currently using as F3). Under the All Windows selection, you will see the default set to F3. Here you can change it if you would like, say assigning the right or left shift key to open the show all windows feature. In the box to the right which should be empty, you can even assign extra mouse keys (assuming you use an external mouse) to do the exact same thing, which I find makes your work-flow much easier. Play around with the mouse settings to get what you like (I use my mouse to show all windows when I press the scroll wheel). Hopefully this will be a sufficient solution to your needs. Have a look here for more keyboard shortcuts: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1343
    Regarding your second question, you will find that Mac's do not fall failure to the typical 'OS rot' that you see when using Windows in just a short year or two. The same goes for keeping your computer on for long periods. Where Windows will be noticeably sluggish after even a day or two of continuous use, Mac's can have an uptime of weeks without a drop in performance (a buddy of mine usually only restarts once a month unless the power flashes). You will likely only need to re-install the OS if something happens to the computer and it no longer functions properly. In this case, I recommend using Apple's build in Time Machine application (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427) however you will require an external hard drive. Time Machine takes a backup of your computer whenever you ask it and if you have to re-install the OS, it will restore everything to it's previous state.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I reformat my ipod touch for mac

    How can I reformat my ipod touch for mac I used to have a PC I've all ready tried to restore several times but it won't work. What can i do?

    Just plug it into the mac, and do a restore. Make sure you are plugging the ipod into a usb 2.0 port and not through a keyboard or usb hub. Also if itunes offers to use a backup during the restore, don't use it.

  • Selling old mac, how do you reformat and restore?

    I bought a mac mini off a friend and now I'm getting a new one but first I have to sell the mini.
    My first question is how do I reformat my hard drive, I want to get rid of ALL of my files just to make sure nothing is on it that would compromise my security.
    Also my friend didn't give me the restore discs. So does anyone know the repercusions of using another freinds restore discs?
    I have a Mac Mini 10.4.11 with the superdrive and my friend who has restore discs has a iMac 10.4.11.

    It might work for just the Disk Utility, to zero the drive, but it won't install OSX. If it doesn't work, create a new administrator account, logout, login to the new account, delete all other accounts and their data, empty the trash, then use Disk Utility to Erase Free Space. A single pass of zeros is enough.

  • HOW do i reformat a 6233 or stop it from turning o...

    How do i reformat a 6233 or if it is unreformatable then how do i stop it from exiting from my music player each time i put on a song,it doesnt happen all the time but it goes white and makes a beeping noise and then exists the music player.
    PLEASE tell me because my sister will KILL me if i dont get it right * *

    No idea what you mean. But try a firmware update, and don't forget to back up your personal details as this would be another point your sister would kill you ( ;-) ). I think the best to do is, talk with your sister if she's the own of the phone and take it to a Nokia care. Your problem sounds like a restarting problem, but I've never heard that a phone beeps before restarting. But don't forget that occasional restart of a phone is not that strange. May be you are running your phone at it's maximum capacity (ie- memory full)? And the 6233 connot be formatted manually like done in a S60 device.It is always advisable to keep your phone's firmware up to date. Click here to see whether a software/ firmware update is available for your Nokia device.

  • I was able copy the hardrive of my old macbook from "My Passport" onto the desktop on an older iMac. but i dont know how to make my hardrive and user name be the main one since someone had used it in the past and had their info on the comp. please help!

    I recently broke my 2008 macbook. i was able to use an external hardrive to back up my data onto My Passport. I was going to buy a new computer but a friend told me sher had an older version of the iMac. (not sure how old but it doesnt have a camera if that helps) i was able to hook it up and turn it on but i ran into a few problems. 1) the "authentic" user or whatever it says is someone who previously used the computer. i added me as a user but im not sure how to make me the main user. 2) after hooking up My Passport, i was able to drag my files and copy them to the desktop.(i think i did it correctly) now, i dont know how to make my hard drive and applications and iformation the "main " info. The current apps on the iMac are super old versions of iTunes and iPhoto and such. 3) while trying to open the apps from my macbook on the iMac, it said it didnt have the right software to open these apps.
    I am so computer illiterate so someone please help!!! Also, i do not have internet in my new apartment yet so if there is a way to make this happen without using the internet that would be preferred. sorry for the horrible spelling and poorly written paragraph.
    THANK YOU!!

    You are not going to be able to run your old system from the backup on this old computer as the hardware is incompatible.
    You need to get a new computer or a refurbished one.

    table.TotalWidth =530f;
    table.LockedWidth = true;
    PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Institute/Hospital:AIIMS,NEW DELHI", FontFactory.GetFont("Arial", 14, iTextSharp.text.Font.BOLD, BaseColor.BLACK)));
    cell.Colspan = 6;
    cell.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
    table.AddCell(cell);

    this.Close();
    The above code executes well with no problem at all!
    As you can see the file to which i create and save and open my pdf report is
    AssignedDialyzer.pdf.
    The column headers of table in pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp are
    "Reprocessing Date","Patient Name","Dialyzer(Manufacturer,Size)","No.of Reuse","Verification" and
    "DialyzerID".
    However the problem i am facing is after execution and opening of document is my
    column headers in table in pdf report from
    c# and datas in it all appear in bold.
    I have browsed through net regarding to solve this problem but with no success.
    What i want is my pdf report from c# should be similar to following format which i was able to accomplish in vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp.:
    Given below is report which i have achieved from vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp
    I know that there has to be another way to solve my problem.I have browsed many articles in net regarding exporting sql datas to above format but with no success!
    Is there is any another way to solve to my problem on exporting sql datas from c# windows forms using iTextSharp to above format given in the picture/image above?!
    If so Then Can anyone tell me what modifications must i do in my c# code given above so that my pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp will look similar to image/picture(pdf report) which i was able to accomplish from
    vb6,adodb with ms access using iTextSharp?
    I have approached Sound Forge.Net for help but with no success.
    I hope anyone/someone truly understands what i am trying to ask!
    I know i have to do lot of modifications in my c# code to achieve this level of perfection but i dont know how to do it.
    Can anyone help me please! Any help/guidance in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    I hope i get a reply in terms of solving this problem.

  • How to make a JPanel selectable

    When extending a JPanel and overriding the paintComponent() method the custom JPanel can not be selected so that it gets for example KeyEvents.
    But if I make the new Class extend a JButton it gets of course selected and able to receive for example KeyEvents.
    My question is therefore; what does the JButton implement that a JPanel doesn&#8217;t so that a JButton gets selectable? Or in other words; how to make a JPanel selectable?
