Lost recovery partition and thus windows 7

Through my own fault I lost the trcovery partition and thus my Windows & which came with my E325. Is there a way of getting it?

Hi Praguer,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I’m sorry to hear that you are facing the issue with Windows recovery on ThinkPad E325.
Please try to perform the recovery from think vantage button in the system and follow onscreen instruction, if the think vantage button is not working then you have to purchase the recovery media.
However if it works then you can proceed with Think Vantage rescue and recovery.
Please click here to enter the link where you can get the steps for think vantage.
Hope this helps.
Best regards.

Windows 8 Deleted Recovery Partition and Saved but No Boot

Hi
I ve Hp Pavilion G6 - 2336el , i bought it 5 months before and 2 days before i installed Ubuntu but by mistake ubuntu deleted all partitions (included recovery partition) and created one for itself.
by using DiskTest tool on ubuntu i recovered some files and full of recovery partition.
after that, for re-install windows 8 from recovered partition , i did set partition bootable by using another tool which was running on ubuntu.
now, windows 8 repair screen appears but im getting -a required device isn't connected or cannot be accessed- error.
i googled about this problem but the solution didnt work for me. (boot change from bios)
by the way , for precaution , i made an IMG file of recovery partition also (which is 14gb).
i tried burn a bootable disk with that image but didnt work because some files in img is too big for fat32.
after that i tried boot from EFI file but bios cant reach to Ntsf part. i tried to explorer IFE file in fat32 but i couldnt because IFE file which i ve is more than 13gb (same problem for fat32 file system)
so summary :
i ve recovery part with files (install.wim , *.ife files...) but getting error.
i ve an .img of partition but couldnt make bootable disk
Maybe there s a tool for reach ntsf then i can boot from ife...i dont know i need ur help.

Windows XP restore discs & lost recovery partition

If I have two M series Thinkcentres having compatible machine types. Can I use a set of restore discs from the first Thinkcentre to factory install Windows XP onto a second Thinkcentre where the recovery partition and install drive became corrupted?
Also do Thinkcentre applications and utilities install under a retail copy of Windows XP (installed onto a Thinkcentre)?
e.g. Fingerprint reader software, Rescue and Recovery, Client Security, etc.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes, if the model is the same (same first 4 digits) you can use the recovery discs on the second machine. You will load the disks, and then when that process is finished, you will select F11 at boot and then restore to factory state once the Windows Recovery loads.
No Thinkcentre specific applications will load with a retail copy of Windows. You will have to go to the Lenovo download pages and install the apps individually.

Partitioning and Installing Windows 7 with Mac OS X Lion

Hi
after failing seriously with the partitioning after installing Win 7, I hope that I will find some help from the scratch...
I want to install OS X Lion with Win 7.
3 Partitions with Mac are needed and 1 fro Windows.
I got 750Gb on my Mac Book Pro.
Disk should look like this:
100Gb Main Partition (Mac)
200Gb Documents Partition (Mac)
300Gb Stuff and Games (Mac)
150Gb Windows 7 Partition
I tried now to create a 100Gb Partition for Mac and a 150Gb Partition for Windows 7.
After Installing the Mac OS, I was trying to add the 2 other Partitions, but it already telling me that i'm gonna loose my Windows Boot when I change the Partitions. I pressed ok and restarted with the windows 7 DVD for the recovery, which wasn't working due to version incompability -.- (I installed Windows from that DVD)
What steps should I make to get this to work? Some guys says that it not gonna work, but a friend of min has 3 mac partitions and a windows. Sadly he can't remember the way to this setup
Thank you for the help

Some configurations such as a software or hardware RAID do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac.

I'm getting the following error message when attempting to invoke "Find My Mac"
Some configurations such as a software or hardware RAID do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac.

You have no recovery partition. This is a normal condition if your boot volume is a software RAID, or if you modified the partition table after running Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows partition. Otherwise, you need to reinstall OS X in order to add a recovery partition.
If you don't have a current backup, you need to back up before you do anything else.
You have several options for reinstalling.
1. If you have access to a local, unencrypted Time Machine backup volume, and if that volume has a backup of a Mac (not necessarily this one) that was running the same major version of OS X and did have a Recovery partition, then you can boot from the Time Machine volume into Recovery by holding down the option key at the startup chime. Encrypted Time Machine volumes are not bootable, nor are network backups.
2. If your Mac shipped with OS X 10.7 or later preinstalled, or if it's one of the computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery, you may be able to netboot from an Apple server by holding down the key combination option-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
3. Use Recovery Disk Assistant (RDA) on another Mac running the same major version of OS X as yours to create a bootable USB device. Boot your Mac from the device by holding down the option key at startup.Warning: All existing data on the USB device will be erased when you use RDA.
Once you've booted into Recovery, the OS X Utilities screen will appear. Follow the prompts to reinstall OS X. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
If none of the above choices is open to you, then you'll have to start over from an OS X 10.6.8 installation. There's no need to overwrite your existing boot volume; you can use an external drive. Install 10.6 from the DVD you originally used to upgrade, or that came with the machine. Run Software Update and install all available updates. Log into the App Store with the Apple ID you used to buy 10.7 or later, and download the installer. When you run it, be sure to choose the right drive to install on.

Deleted Recovery Partition and It no longer shows up on reboot! HELP!

Accidently deleted Recovery Partition and it no longer shows up on reboot! HELP! I'm trying to install windows on my mac so i do some CAD, but i don't want to proceed without getting the Recovery Partition back.

If you deleted the Recovery volume, the only way to create your Recovery HD again is by reinstalling OS X. If your Mac came with the OS X version you have, start in Internet Recovery (holding Command, Option and R keys) and reinstall OS X

Recovery Partition redundant in Windows 10?

Hi, I have an Acer V3-371 and I have just upgraded it to Windows 10 and it all works fine. I have created a Recovery Drive on a 32Gb USB pen drive and I also regularly copy the full c:\drive onto a USB WD Elements Backup HDD.
I would now like to delete the 15.25 Healthy (Recovery Partition) on Disk 0 because I believe it to now be redundant, and to use the newly available space to expand the space on the c:\drive by a further 15.25Gb.
I am not experienced at working with drive partitions, please can anyone tell me if the MiniTool Partition Free Tool is suitable for this purpose? Also, does anyone see any flaws in what I am trying to do, or if there are any extra steps that I have overlooked?
All advice will be greatly appreciated.
David Priest

Thanks IronFly, things have now moved on and I done it slightly different, I purchased a copy of Paragon Partition Manager 15 Home and deleted the Recovery Partition and added the space to my c:\ drive. At first sight everything appears perfect, I do have a larger c:\ drive, however I now have a different problem, when I attempt to make a fresh recovery drive on my USB pen drive, I get the following error message "We can't create a recovery drive on this PC. Some required files are missing. To troubleshoot problems when your PC can't start. use your Windows installation disc or media"
Because I done a Windows 10 upgrade, I do not have an installation disc and think that I may now have to download an ISO download and do a full re-install?
Unless anyone else has any better ideas?Thanks again
David

HT5577 I lost recovery key and trusted device, how do I rescue my funds on account?

Lost recovery key and trusted dev, and need to transfer balance on account how do I do this?

You will need one of your trusted devices to be able to change your password : Apple ID: Can't sign in with two-step verification - Apple Support
Nobody else should be able to download from a new device or computer unless they have access to two of your password, a trusted device, and your recovery key. You are sure that they are using it e.g. there are a number of phishing emails doing the rounds saying that something has been downloaded on an account and to click on a link in the email if it wasn't you that made it so as to request a refund (i.e. so that they can capture your password and payment details).
If they are 'proper' purchases then you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Missing Recovery Partition and Unrecognized File Systems

So, a long time ago I accidentally deleted my recovery partition and have recently been trying to fix it so that I can upgrade my OS to Mavericks. After browsing around here I found the Recovery Partition Creator 3.7 and used it to create a new recovery partition. Using the diskutil list command everything seemed to be fine and it looked like the partition was successfully created so I tried reinstalling OS X Lion by holding command R at startup. Doing so brought up the internet recovery menu and I selected reinstall Lion which was still unsuccessful because "a recovery partition could not be created". So, I decided to check in disk utility to see what might be wrong and I used the disk utility debug command in order to access disk utility's debug menu and show all the hidden partitions. Now, looking at these partitions I see two hidden partitions: disk0s1 which is an EFI partition, and disk0s3 which is the Apple Boot Partition that was created by Recovery Partition Creator 3.7. After verifying the partitions, disk utility is telling me that both my EFI and apple boot partitions have unrecognized file systems, my Macintosh HD partition is fine. At this point I do not know what to do.
Below are photos of the diskutil list and of what disk utility is showing me for the two hidden partitions.
For reference I am running OSX Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) on a early 2011 13 inch Macbook Pro (Base Model).
Bootrom version: MBP81.0047.B27
SMC Version: 1.68f99
Thank you all in advance for your help, feel free to ask me any questions.

Just an update, I went ahead and installed Lion again over the existing TM restored installation using the Lion Update file and at least File Vault is working. Interestingly, I still do not have a Recover partition so obviously something new for Apple Support to learn.

Maverick upgrade: Can't create recovery partition and infinite loop

Hi,
I'm using MacBook Air Mid 2011 with 256 GB SSD (~30 GB free disk space) running MacOS 10.7.4. So far I never followed the suggestion to upgrade to MacOS Maverick but yesterday I thought, OK, let's do it.
After the first reboot the setup started working, but after about 5 minutes it quit with the error message, it can't create the recovery partition and said, after a reboot, I would be sent back to my old MacOS.
However, it booted again into the setup, worked a few minutes, quite with the error message and said, I have to reboot. I tried this a few times but didn't find a way to cancel the setup, but boot into my existing MacOS installation.
I found no other solution than to make a full restore with TimeMachine.
I'm now wondering what the problem was. One point may be that I use FileVault for hard disk encryption and it never asked me for my hard disk password. This is in particular remarkable because TimeMachine didn't show me my internal hard disk as a restore target until I went to the disk utility and used Unlock on my hard disk where I had to enter my password. So maybe this is related?
I know I could run the upgrade without creating a recovery partition but now I'm concerned that other problems could occur if I don't identify the root cause.
Best regards,
Dominik

You can try making a Recovery Volume using the 2nd link if you still have the installer.

Do you have a Boot Camp partition?

Whether a Recovery-partition and its all contents will be created automatically..?

Please tell me whether a Recovery-partition and its all contents will be created automatically when I install Mac OS X 10.7 on a fully formatted new hard drive?

Usually, but there are some conditions that can prevent it. See "Some features of Mac OS X Lion are not supported for the disk (volume name)" appears during installation.
So, I get exactly the same (hidden) Recovery-partition on my Mac mini 2011 as from the store if I delete the hard drive current partitions scheme and create a new scheme with an only one (bootable) partition?
You can't do that, at least not from the Mini, while you're runing from it.
You can, however, remove and/or resize partitions in most cases. See #4 in Using Disk Utility.

HT1461 I created a partition and installed Windows through bootcamp. But I need to increase my partition size due to me needing more space on the windows side. Can I do this with bootcamp, and how do I do it?

Welcome to Apple Communities
You can delete the partition in Boot Camp Assistant or use Camptune to modify it
