HP G6 recovery help - what if I can't read the COA code

My hard drive is in the process of crashing.  I"m grabbing my files quickly.  I'll likely pick up a SSD.  I"m doing research on how to rebuild/recover.
I can't read the COA sticker on the bottom.  Is there any way to get the code off my computer while it is still running?  What are my options?

Hi:
Read this info, and use ABR to back up the OEM VLK key info and then you should be able to restore it on the new installation.

  • TS1292 What if you can't enter the redeem code into the computer?

    I can't enter the code of my newly purchased ITunes card into the computer.  It won't allow it because I can't get a cursor.  Help me.

    Hi baronessbaugh,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I would suggest signing out of your iTunes account, restarting the computer and trying again.
    iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311?viewlocale=en_US
    If you are still not able to activate your gift card ... follow the instructions in the article you referenced:
    iTunes Store: Invalid, inactive, or illegible codes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292
    If you're still unable to redeem your code after verifying the characters in the code, you'll need to contact iTunes Store Support for help. You'll need to provide a digital image of the front and back of the gift card as well as the sales receipt for the purchase of the gift card.
    Go to the iTunes support page and select your iTunes country.
    From the iTunes support page, choose Contact Support on the lower-left side of the page.
    Follow the instructions to get iTunes Store support assistance.
    Cheers,

  • HELP!how to show lines in the sample code 'docsig'

    I want to show my handwritten in the pdf and my code is based on the sample code 'docsig',
    can anyone read the following code, and tell me the reason why it not show the line. Thanks!
    //from the project 'docsig' in the acrobat sdk 9.0 sample code
    CosObj DSHandler::CreateN2XObject( CosDoc cosDoc, const CosObj sigField, const CosObj sigAnnot, const ASFixedRect* const pBBoxRec )
    //Define a stream to draw a line
    char buf [500];
    sprintf(buf,"150 250 m 150 350 l S");
    //Get the stream length
    ASUns32 streamLength = (ASUns32)strlen(buf);
    //Create a CosObj object that represents the stream length
    CosObj LengthEntry = CosNewInteger(cosDoc, false,streamLength);
    //Create a CosObj that represents a stream dictionary
    //and sets its key-value pairs
    CosObj AttrDict = CosNewDict(cosDoc, false, 5);
    char *Length_KStr = "Length";
    CosDictPutKeyString(AttrDict, Length_KStr, LengthEntry);
                    CosObj  cosStm =  CosNewStream64(
                                   cosDoc,                                                  // cos document to use the newly created stream
                                    true ,                                                                      // cos stream is indirect object?
                                   0,                                                    // input stream
                                   0,                                                                                             // start reading from stream position
                                    false ,                                                    // stream is decoded?
                                   AttrDict,                                                // attributes dictionary
                                    CosNewNull(),      // encode params
                                   -1,                                                                                           // decode length
                                    false                                                                       // allowing delayed reading of input stream
        return cosStm;
    Why I just get a blank signature ? It should draw a line, but not showed in the pdf file.

    you need to change the following piece of code
    case 10:   // * pressed
    case 11:   // # pressed
    clearText = true;
    if (first) // first operand
    if(lcdField.getText().length()==0)
    result = 0.0;
    else
    result = Double.parseDouble(lcdField.getText());
    first = false;
    prevOperator = i;
    else //second operand already entered, so calculate total
    switch(prevOperator)
    case 10: //divide button
    result /= Double.parseDouble(lcdField.getText());
    break;
    case 11: //multiply button
    result *= Double.parseDouble(lcdField.getText());
    break;
    lcdField.setText(Double.toString(result));
    if(i==14) //equal button
    first = true;
    else
    prevOperator = i; //save last operator
    break;
    }its gets excuted when you press the * or # buuton

  • Help required please. "Itunes can not read the contents of my iphone"

    Greetings all,
    I know this question has been asked before and I apologize for asking again but all the solutions provided don't seam to work for me, can anyone help me please.
    I am receving the message: "Itunes can not read the contents of the iPhone. Go to the summary tab In iPhone Preferences and click restore torestore this Iphone to factory settings".
    Now a little about my iphone, Itunes and my laptop and what steps i havealready tried.
    I have an iPhone 4 running software 5.0
    My itunes version is 10.5.0.142
    I know these are not the most up to date versions but I have had this issue for almost 3 months now and updating the software back then was the first step I tried. I don’t believe updating to the latest will fix this issue as updating the last two times did nothing.
    Every so often after starting Itunes, The program will stop responding and will require the three finger death kill (CTRL, ALT, DELETE) to open task manager to end the task of Itunes. Once it shuts down, I restart the iTunes and it runs smoothly, apart from not reading my iPhone.
    When I run a diagnostic in itunes under the help tab, I get these fail messages:
    Network Connectivity test: Secure link to Itunes store fail
    Device connectivity test: Under support services: Itunes helper is not running. And under ports: No iPod, iPhone or iPad found.
    Device Sync test: No iPod touch, iPhone or iPad found.
    *See below for full diagnostic report*
    I have restored back to factory settings twice.
    I have shut down and restarted both my iPhone and laptop.
    I am running Windows 7 32-bit on my laptop.
    I am using ZoneAlarm as my fire wall, and have been disabling it when syncing my iPhone to prevent other error messages.
    The iPhone is plugged into a genuine Iphone USB cable and is plugged into a USB port not a USB hub on my laptop, I have tried plugging it into all 4 USB ports and this issue still persist. The Cable is less then 5 months old, is not frayed or damaged in any way, have also borrowed 2 other cables from friends and still the same issue.
    The iPhone does not even come up in windows explorer as a digital camera.
    The iPhone is NOT jailbroken
    I do not live close to a so called genius bar, however I have made the journey to them on 3 separate occasions last year when I first received my iPhone for a different issue, the so called genius's could not fix the problem so they just gave me a new (refurbished) iPhone, which did not extend my warranty. I will not be taking the iPhone back to them as I believe they can not resolve many issues, this is why I am reaching out to the power of the people in the wider apple community.
    I have read in other forums about ifunbox and other programs for jail broken iPhones to isolate folders “iTunesDB” and "iTunesCDB" and delete them. If this is the issue is there a way to access these files through windows explorer as my iphone is not jailbroken.
    I hope I have provided enough information and someone can help me fix this issue. If I have left anything out, please let me know. I thank everyone in advance for your patience and support.
    Thanks

    I tried to Purchase on the i Tunes store, but forgot security questions. Not even Customer Service is able to help me. How can I spend the 20 bucks I have on my account now if even the phone assistants can't help me? I can't rememeber any answer to any of mu questions and I can't even register my product (iPod Classic) even though I purchased it 6 months ago. Customer Service held me on the line for 30+ minutes asking me all the time if I rememeber one anwer to my questions (to which I repeatedly said no) and there seems to be no way to circumvent that security system, not even with my second email, also registered on My Itunes. Isn't there any way for me to get those 20 dollars back I already have in your store or at least reset my security questions if I don't rememeber?

I just need to get used to a sound like sitting by a washing machine on spin cycle...  Wish they would make people aware of this in the Apple Store, its very misleading and not at all desireable.

    As has been mentioned, the software in Mac OS X that supported the running of PPC applications rather than current Intel applications on Intel computers such as your MBP was last seen in Snow Leopard. However, since I believe your MBP originally came with Snow Leopard, you may be able to boot from the DVD's that came with the computer and install it on an external HD and try to install Quark on that.
    I think a better solution would be to buy Snow Leopard Server from Apple by phone (800-692-7753 and be specific about wanting part # MC588Z/A), installing it as a virtual machine in software like VMware Fusion, and then installing Quark 6 in that. You'll still need a license number to authorize the Quark installation.
