Inactive (or broken) reset button on my Ze

Hello! I recently tried using the recovery tool on my zen V to diagnose any issues. The player had been charging on the computer for some time but was not being recognized by the computer itself (not unusual). So when I tried to use the recovery tool, it obviously said there was no player connected and thus couldn't continue the diagnosis. That is fine and dandy but the problems now are much much worse... After that, I tried removing it and re-plugging it in. The player was detected but not recognized by the computer (strange, I've used it on this computer before). I wasn't overly concerned yet but then the player itself started acting strangely --> freezing while "restoring library". I used the reset button and went to the recovery mode to reboot the player. The player rebooted successfully and restarted the song it had cutoff when the battery died. I tried going to other menus and then the player froze again. Once again, I used the reset button to get into recovery mode and tried to re-boot. It once again froze when trying to restore the library... so I tried the reset button yet again. Finally it loaded, started playing the song again and when I tried switching the menu, it froze YET again! Now, my reset button will not work and it is stuck with the screen on, sitting in the menu section. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do I've owned the player for < year.

Mark,
Is the web interface simply not loading or do you not have the password? Your DHCP range does not matter unless there is another device on the network that is currently assigned 192.168.1.254. If that is the case you will have trouble accessing the web UI. It is usually easiest to plug ONLY a PC and the switch together and assign a static IP to the PC:
IP Address: 192.168.1.200
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: None
DNS Servers: None
This will allow you to access the switch without interference from other network devices. Remember to change the PC back to DHCP when you are done. If you do in fact have an IP conflict you should also change the switch to a different static IP.
You can also access the switch using a console cable. You can check the settings and see if the web interface has been disabled or you can reset the password in case you lost it. Check the Admin Guide for details:

Broken reset button covered by warranty?

Whilst trying to reset up my TC, I've managed to snap the reset button.
I'm guessing this is going to void the warranty, although it didn't seem to give any, and all I did was push it in trying to feel it give any, when snap!
Any ide if this would be covered under warranty?
The trouble is, I can't now seem to get it going again, having tried every combination of restarting the MBP, TC and modem. But the MBP just won't see the TC in Airport Utility, even when connected by ethernet.
The TC is permanently stuck on a flashing amber light, and the sound of either the fan or HD spinning noisily.

Yeah - I'm going to be making an appointment at a Genius Bar in the next few weeks just before we go on holiday to get them to give the MBP a health check, as its been suffering from this :
http://www.hpwebdesign.co.uk/macbook/macbook.html
So will take the TC along as well. Unfortunately I don't have phone support, and wouldn't be able to follow their instructions anyway, what with the reset button being broken.
See what they say anyway - they might have ways and means of doing something.

Broken Reset Button on SG 300 Switch - Need to reset

I can't seem to reset my switch and realized the reset button is missing/broken off. Is there an alternate method to reset the switch to factory settings? If not, how do I figure out the IP of the web interface, it is not the default.

Ultrabeat - reset button

HI
The reset button on Ultrabeat doesn't seem to be having any effect at all. When in Step mode pressing it does not make the values of the selected parameters (re)set to one?
Manual
• Reset: All off set values for the selected parameters set to 0(no offset).
• A second click on the Reset button removes the parameter from the off set menu.
Note: The Reset button at the left of the velocity/gate row changes to Delete when
clicked once. This Delete button mirrors the behavior of the Delete command: It deletes
all steps for the currently selected parameter.
I am finding that none of what the the manual says above actually works
Is anybody else finding this? In L8 I'm sure that the reset button did something.
Thanks

zalermon, welcome to the discussions!
There is a workaround for the broken reset button, but the trick will be to get AirPort Utility to identify the Time Capsule (TC) so that you can access the menus.
Power down the TC for a few minutes as well as your computer. Connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports on the Time Capsule directly to your computer.
Restart the TC and let it run for a few minutes, then restart your computer and open AirPort Utility to see if the application can "see" the TC. If this is not successful at first, leave AirPort Utility open for 10-15 minutes. Sometimes the TC will just "appear" after a period of time.
If you can get Airport Utility to see the TC, click on Manual Setup.
Now go the the Base Station menu at the top of your screen in the toolbar next to the Apple icon. Select "Restore Default Settings". This will accomplish the same task as a hard reset and will return the TC to factory defaults.
Once the TC restarts, you may need to repeat the procedure to find the TC so that you can reconfigure it.

HT1212 resetting phone with broken lock button

I bought a used iPhone 4S (which did not have a passcode on it) with a broken lock button. When I turned on the phone after a full charge, it said to update the OS. So, I did. All of a suddent there was a passcode on the phone. I asked her the passcode and I tried what she told me. Well, I tried it too many times and now the phone is disabled and says to connect to iTunes. I've set up an iTunes account (at the direction of the Verizon store), but cannot figure out how to reset the phone from iTunes. Any advice?

Read the article you were just at: iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong ...
That's how you handle this issue.
If you can't turn off the phone to perform recovery mode because the Sleep/Wake button is damaged, then you won't be able to do anything on the phone with recovery or DFU mode. You'll probably have to replace the device.

Reset button is broken. Which pins do I short to reset my Airport Extreme to factory defaults?

I'm working on a 4th Generation Airport Extreme A1354. I do not know the password and I was not able to perform the software, hardware, or factory default reset procedures. (I never got the fast blinking amber light.)
I suspected a broken reset switch and took the gray cover off to find the reset button was indeed broken. Upon slight maneuvering, the button fell off the board.
I think I can perform a factory default reset by jumpering where the reset switch was. Which pins do I short to perform the factory default procedure without the reset button working?
Trying to upload pictures that show my issue.

I don't often work on extreme.. mostly Time Capsule.. but the switch is surface mount.. no pins go through the board.. you will need to lift the board right out of the frame, (it all comes out in one piece and is fairly easy to do).. and you will need to short the two pins right at the switch .. but hopefully with it right out the switch itself will become accessible.

Reset button inactive

Hello, for some reason the reset button of my iphone 4 sometimes does not work anymore. I'll press of it and nothing happens. To reboot or restart does not do anything. It can stay like this for a while and work again sometimes later.
Should it comes from a electric contact problem ?
Thanks for your help

You mean the home button? The reset button would be inside the Settings. I'd take it to the apple store and have the genius check it out. Make sure you set up an appointment.

How to make a RESET button in labview ?

how to make a RESET button in labview which resets all the elements in an array back to inactive element. Rather than deleting values in every column of array its better to create a RESET button ... how to make it ???

You seem to have some misconceptions.
Is the array a control or an indicator or just some data held in a shift register or feedback node?
What you are probably looking for is an empty array. An empty array has a size of zero and has no elements (active or inactive). From your mentioning of "rows", you seem to have a 2D array.
The size of the array is independent of the visible size of the container.
Clearing an array means simply writing an empty array of the same datatype to it's terminal (or internal data structure). If the array is a control, you need to write to a local variable of it instead.
Can you show us some code so we can have a better understanding what exactly you mean by "array" in this context? Thanks!

1st Generation Time Capsule reset button broke

Hello everyone I have a 1st Generation Time Capsule 500gb that I purchased used and do not have the password for AND
the reset button is BROKEN!!!
Is there anyway to reset it without the rest button working??
I bought it to upgrade it to a 2TB drive that i already own .
Thank you guys !!!!!!!

When you open the TC to replace the hard disk you will be able to press the reset. You might also be able to fix the reset lever arm.. I have found them simply forced so far back it was bent.. and no longer able to go back.. once inside the box, I can bend it back to the correct position.. but it is a plastic hinge.. and no plastic hinge likes being bent at any time.. If it has snapped right off, or snaps off attempting repair don't worry about it.. once reset, just keep it at default or write the password on a sticker and place it on the bottom.
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Apple_Time_Capsule
Please pay attention though to Bob's comments.. fixing the power supply is going to be necessary in the near future. Especially if you put in a large drive with high start current for the hard disk. There are lots of people who find the upgrade of the hard disk is closely followed by power supply failure or it won't even start the new hard disk.. depending on type and current demand. It is much much more for some disks even if the drive has lower consumption.
If you are a DIYer it is not expensive to fix power supply or better replace it.
Although I have suggested several repair methods this is probably the cheapest.

How to fix a disabled iPhone 5 with broken home button?

I've beeing searching for two days online for trying to fix this problem. I have a disabled iPhone 5 (iOS 7) with a broken Power Button, I want to restore it to its factory defaults but it isn't working.
1) I can't put the iPhone into recovery mode since the power button is broken.
2) Once I plug that iPhone on my MacBook, iTunes asks for trust confirmation from my side althgouh the iPhone is disabled and I can't access it to trust that computer.
3) I tried to multiple solutions but they didn't didn't work; I even tried to reset my iPhone using "Accessibility Options" but it didn't work.
What can I do?

Free phone support is 90 days. Yes they will charge you to call. No, they will NOT charge you to take it to the genius bar. If it's within 1 year, they will replace it if it's covered.
There are no magic words that will get you past the fact that it's physically broken. Make an appointment and make the trip to the genius bar.

Ipod 1g stuck at start-up, broken home button... HELP!

My ipod touch died as usual, but when I went to charge it it wouldn't boot up. It would show the charging battery symbol as usual, then it would move on to the apple logo. But then it started the process over. I have read a few solutions by resetting it while plugged into itunes. Unfortunately I don't have a computer that will recognize my ipod as I was hit by hurricane Irene and my computer is ruined(I had my ipod on me though, so it wasn't flooded, not the problem). Also to top it all off, the home button has a short in it and I would have to press it repeatedly to get it to work when my Ipod would turn on. Don't worry about me keeping the files on the ipod, I have most of the music and what not backed up on a hard drive that I took with me. Is there any way to save my Ipod. Please don't tell me to buy a new ipod like other forums have, I know its a 1G and it's out of date, but I am trying to salvage as much as I can, so I don't have to re-buy all my belongings.
Edit: The ipod hasn't been updated in roughly 14months

See if this program will get the iPod in recovery mode so yu can restore it via iTunes on the computer.
