Issues restoring the HDD on Thinkpad Twist

I have a Thinkpad Twist which I would like to sell but I'm having a hard time restoring it.
When I put in the recovery USB and select "reset your PC", it says that the partition is too small.
I recently formated the HDD and the SSD, installed Win8 on SSD directly.
Is there a way to restore it to factory state?

take the hdd out and start the laptop without the hdd, if the LED light doesn't come on then you have a hardware problem.

    Started had installing windows software using Boot Camp assist using the USB flash drive
    Took the back of Windows Support software from Apple store
    Did the HDD partitioning for Windows,
    Then went ahead to install the windows and automatically machine restarted.
    After few minutes started installing Windows... and stuck for more than 3hrs at by displaying the blue screen of Windows installation... and inactive
    I had restarted the using start button, and finally I could not able to install Windows.
    Then I got black screen with message ' No boot disk, please insert boot the disk and press any key to restart'
    I have restarted using start button by holding 'Alt' key
    Finally I could able to started machine with OS X
    Now I wanted to remove the partition created above, using Boot Camp assist, but it is not able to do it. There is error message ' Error while restoring the hard disk'
    Any help, how to remove this partitioning?  Also in every restart I need to hold 'Alt' key to boot the machine with OS X.

    if you've tried and cannot remove the partition with boot camp assistant, you'll have to open disk utility and reformat the partition there - choose mac journaled and then try to combine this partition back into your existing Mac partition

  • How to restore the HDD Recovery partition which has been deleted?

    Hello,
    due to the mistake, I removed HDD Recovery partition.
    Then, now I'm unable to restore eg. system state from before a fe hours.
    Is there any way to "make" HDRecovery once again?
    I really liked the funcionality of this tool, so it'd be nice but - can this be done? And how?

    Andrej is right you cannot do this.
    When you use Toshiba recovery media and install Vista this option will be available again.

  • I restored my HDD and now iTunes won't stream music from the cloud.

    As title states, I replaced/restored the HDD in my Mac Mini and everything works perfectly except iTunes Match songs in the Cloud no longer stream in iTunes, they just skip to the next song. They all play fine when explicitly downloaded, but ihave many thousands of songs and it is supposed to work that way. I've tried many solutions and have also seen no one else with this problem. What am I missing here?
    Thanks,

    Hey
    Does it charge when connected, if not you may have broken it..

  • My work issued iphone won't restore the backup. New password twist!

    My work issued iphone won't restore the backup. I get an error that my password is wrong. I tried variations of all recent passwords. Checked various threads and saw one that suggesting to use the "Change Password" feature under "Encrypt iPhone Backup" as a faster way to find your password. After a few wrong attempts I then successfully changed my backup password and wrote it down!!
    Now when I tried to restore my backup with my shiny new password I get the same error that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone "my iphone" because the password was incorrect"  The "Encrypt iPhone backup" option is checked and grayed out. I assume the fact its grayed out means its a policy set by my company. I cannot uncheck the "Encrypt iPhone Backup" option. My company IT helpdesk can't help me as they say they don't set a password or force its encryption. The phone has Mobile Iron 5.7.4 app installed as a corporate requirement.
    Any ideas? I am using iOS 6.1.3 and I will not update it to iOS 7 since I cannot restore my backup. Learned this the hard way when it wouldn't restore after the iOS 5 to iOS 6 update. I have an iPhone 4s.
    Thank you,

    This is a problem.  We also set a policy which requires users create a backup password.  That way if they salvage their computer, someone that buys it at the Thrift store won't be able to access what might be company data.  The problem is that the password is only required one time, when the initial backup is made, and it might be a year or more before you need to use it to do a restore.  Here is an article which may help out...at least with some ideas on password ideas...http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
    If you can't remember it, you can always transfer your content to your computer, music, apps, photo's etc, then setup the device as new and transfer the content back.  This won't allow you to get various settings, and points on games, etc, but at least you will have the really really important stuff.  If you are connected to an enterprise mail server, that will restore all of your mail, contacts and calendar. 

  • ThinkPad Twist hard drive issues TWICE in 1.5 years!

    Hi,
         I purchased a ThinkPad Twist in early December 2012.  After about 3 weeks, I experienced a hard drive crash.  I took the laptop to Staples where I first purchased it who told me the drive crashed.  I then contacted Lenovo and after months of trying to get the problem resolved, I finally did get a working hard drive and a new keyboard as that apparently was also defective.  My computer was working again (finally) in April of 2013. 
         Now, literally a year later, I have experienced yet another hard drive crash as well as the motherboard going out according to Staples tech team.  They were shocked to hear I had only had the laptop for a year and a half and that it was a Lenovo as apparently Lenovo is a trusted name in laptops.  Apparently, my unit was a "lemon" to have experienced so many severe issues in such a short amount of time according to the Staples tech department. 
         I have always carried it in a padded laptop case, have never dropped it, and have not abused it in any way, shape, or form.  Yet, I currently have a dead laptop that will take hundreds of dollars to get working again.  Even if I did pay that to get it working, I have so little trust in the thing after 2 hard drive failures in such a short amount of time that I would only use it for internet and use our older Dell laptop (that we've had for 6 years with NO issues mind you) for any important documents and files. 
         I am hoping there is something that Lenovo can do to help rectify this situation as I clearly have some defective parts or an entire defective Twist laptop on my hands.  Please help!  Help restore my faith in the Lenovo name for both their products and their business/service.
    Thank you!

    Did anyone respond to you? I am having a similar problem and have heard there is an issue with the connection to the hard drive, but I'm not inclined to get it fixed since I've had horrible experience with Lenovo customer support so far.

  • Thinkpad Twist s230u: Can no Longer Connect to the Internet

    Hello,
    Several days ago my Lenovo Thinkpad Twist suddenly stopped connecting to the internet. I was at the cafe using my phone hotspot and everything was fine, but then when I got back home, it could not detect any wireless networks in my house. I thought it may have just been my wi-fi but my phone could connect to the wi-fi just fine. I tried plugging in my phone again for personal hotpot and it could detect my phone, but no longer connect to the internet (it'd say that it's connected, but no pages would load). I tried rebooting my computer, but the wireless networks still could not be found and my phone's hotspot could no longer help it connect to the internet. I tried a Malwarebytes Scan but that didn't detect anything, and my McAfee virus scanner is not gonna help me find anymore viruses (long story as to why I don't have a better virus protection).
    Can't really install any updates since I can't connect to the internet at all...rebooted several times to no avail...
    Any sort of help or ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!
    Sincerely,
    Ingrid

    I just started to have similar problem. I cannot connect to interent via ethernet or wifi. Both connections show I am connected, but cannot acces any web pages. It is like it is not connected. I would like to know how to restore back to when I bought it, 12/20/13, and then re-load the Windows 8 pro that is somewhere on the partition HD. Any help out there?????? All my other devices/laptops/computers work fine on the internet.

  • Thinkpad Twist- Hard Drive issues

    Hello all! I have a ThinkPad Twist that is still under warranty. A couple of weeks ago I got a 2100 HDD detection error . I am currently based in a rural part of Mexico for work (for a few months) and called into the US service center and they said I needed a new hard drive. As you can imagine, I was pretty frustrated to have the laptop die like this when it is way less than a year old. Anyway, the support center said that they could not mail the hard drive directly to Mexico but that they could mail it to a colleague in the US who was coming out here this past weekend. I got the hard drive yesterday and, as requested, called up the support center and they said that their systems have been down so they could not walk me through the reinstallation process, as they had said they could. The attendant directed me to a document I'd that would supposedly explain step by step how to change out the hard drive but I looked it up and it is for a different model all together...in the meantime, I went ahead and opened the new hard drive. From what I can tell, it is an SSD and my system has a HDD. They look completely different-Help! Is there a way to install the SSD or do I have no other option but to have them send another one to someone in the US and then get it brought out to me? Thanks in advance for your help. Oh, and the nearest authorized Lenovo service provider (3rd party) is about a 16 hour bus ride from here....

    do you have picture of the two hdd that you have in your possession?
    This is the correct hardware maintenance manual for your system.

  • Lenovo Thinkpad Twist touchscreen issue

    Does anybody have any expirience with setting up the touchscreen on the thinkpad twist? I assume that I am having  a kernel moduel issue because it does not show up in xinput (it did however show up in ubuntu as atmel maxtouch digitizer, and works without any issues). Any help would be gcreatly appreciated

    Hi Lem0nade, 
    Thanks for your reply.  I've tried calibrating the device and setting the full windows touch support, as well as resetting the device to factory defaults and updating the drivers but the problem is still present.
    I've inserted a file showing an example of the troubleshooting approach in case it's useful.  Starting a Metro paint application and then drawing vertical lines across the screen there's a line that just doesn't register the touch at all.  If I use the touchpad to draw in that area it works ok, also this behaviour is consistent across multiple applications and is the same after I reset the device, makeing me fairly sure it's a hardware issue with the touchscreen.
    At the moment I've got my Twist being picked up as an RMA by the site I bought it from but I thought this informaiton could be useful for other people seeing problems with their touchscreens.

  • Thinkpad Twist heating issues

    So I've had my Twist for a few months now, and I've noticed that it gets kinda hot every once in a while. So I installed the Open Hardware Monitor to monitor its temperature. Are these normal/healthy temperatures?
    Casual use (web browsing, word processing, watching movies) in "Power Saver" mode: 40s and 50s
    Intensive tasks (Matlab, Mathematica, Photoshop, Visual Studio, various games) in "High Performance" mode: up to the 90s
    Should I be concerned at all? 

    Hi AmarD,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to hear that your Lenovo ThinkPad Twist is overheating at times.
    If your laptop feels hot and shows any of the problems below, chances are its overheating or getting there:
    Fan constantly running and making loud whirring noises
    Computer struggling to perform basic tasks like opening a new browser window
    Mysterious error messages popping up in random programs
    Lines on your laptop screen (a sign your video card is overheating)
    System freezing or the dreaded BSOD (blue screen of death)
    The laptop abruptly shuts down on its own
    Optimal operating temperature is 50° Celsius (122° Fahrenheit) or below during normal operation of the device. 90° Celsius is an inacceptable temperature value even in case of high intensive tasks.
    Use dust remover spray to clean out of the laptop's vents. Dust can accumulate in and block the laptop's fan vents Start using compatible cooling pads which will help in the flow of cool air into the underside vents of the laptop. Keep your working environment or computer room as comfortably cool as possible.
    If the machine is still overheating, I strongly recommend you to contact our technical support for assistance.
    Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.

    Mithun.

  • I used time machine to restore on a formatted MAC. Now the HDD space has reduced by 100GB but I cannot see any of the files. How do I find and delete those 100GB data from the HDD?

    Not necessarily. I'd suggest downloading and installing the "combo" update. That's a combination (thus the clever name) of all the updates to Leopard since it was first released, so installing it should fix anything that's gone wrong since then, such as with one of the normal "point" updates.

  • Issue in the AD replication after VM restore

    Hi,
    This is my first Thread in this Forum.
    We have a problem in our AD. Let me first give a glimpses of the environment.
    2 no. of DC in the forest. It replicated with each other .
    Both the DC are VM on VMware ESXi VSphare host.
     previously there was a DNS issue...every entry got removed from both the DC. Than we restored the primary from 2 months old backed up VM done by HP Dataprotector.
    We again synced the DNS from secondary to primary DC. Its was fine..
    After some time the replication got stopped.
    we digonised and found that the below event ..
    Log Name:      Directory Service
    Source:        Microsoft-Windows-ActiveDirectory_DomainService
    Date:          3/12/2015 11:14:23 AM
    Event ID:      1988
    Task Category: Replication
    Level:         Error
    Keywords:      Classic
    User:          ANONYMOUS LOGON
    Computer:      xxx-Primary.xxxxxxx.net
    Description:
    Active Directory Domain Services Replication encountered the existence of objects in the following partition that have been deleted from the local domain controllers (DCs) Active Directory Domain Services database.  Not all direct or transitive replication
    partners replicated in the deletion before the tombstone lifetime number of days passed.  Objects that have been deleted and garbage collected from an Active Directory Domain Services partition but still exist in the writable partitions of other DCs in
    the same domain, or read-only partitions of global catalog servers in other domains in the forest are known as "lingering objects".
    Source domain controller:
    52c29991-6165-4537-ac08-2726ce4e0dec._msdcs.xxxxx.net
    Object:
    DC=DR1380056,DC=xxxxxxx.net,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=xxxxxx,DC=net
    Object GUID:
    dc448323-f444-4d52-acc4-cf2ea252c7fe  This event is being logged because the source DC contains a lingering object which does not exist on the local DCs Active Directory Domain Services database.  This replication attempt has been blocked.
     The best solution to this problem is to identify and remove all lingering objects in the forest.
    Than I used the registry edit and made the replication in loose mode...less secure replication..
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
    Strict Replication Consistency = 0
    Its was fine...for some time..
    Our sys admin have reseted some user's password and a security update...
    Again the same problem identified..
    I have done lost of thing check the Disable the replication using the repadmin command.
    nothing worked..
    Inbetween going for any changed in the registery ..I have done a VM snapshot on both the VM...
    Now, I have restore the VM from snapshot of VM done in VMware...
    now , the following issue have arised..
    1. I am opening the DNS/ad users and computers/other  console from secondary DC the primary DC was not added..giving a stop icon but canable to see the secondary DC.
     2. I have executed the "repadmin /showrepl  /verbose /all /intersite " below is the output

    I have also done the DCdiag...as its bit big thus not posted the same...

    Hello,
    DNS records don't delete all atuomatically out of th eblue. SO there MUST have happened something before this starts.
    "Than we restored the primary from 2 months old backed up VM done by HP Dataprotector."
    Is that an AD aware restore from HP, so there is NOT the VM just restored in its old state? Then you are in an USN rollback scenario.
    Please see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/870695 and
    https://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/cc949134%28v=ws.10%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396 about lingering objects.

  • I've a few issues, my old computer was out of memory and i changed to a new one which was already on another itunes account.  When i upgraded to os5 my library has gone it has synced with the new computer - how do i restore the old ipad information?  ple

    I've a few issues, my old computer was out of memory.  I changed to a new one which already had another itunes account (for my business)  when i upgraded to os5 my library has dissappeared as it has syncd with the new computer.  Is there any way i can restore the information previously from my ipad?  really appreciate any advice thanx in advance

    Lynda-
    If you still have the old computer, you should be able to connect the iPad, run iTunes and restore from a backup from a previous sync.  Now that you have it updated, you will not need to do that again.

  • "itunes could not restore the iphone because the password was incorrect" I know for a fact im using the correct password. and it has previously worked. is anyone else having this issue.

    "itunes could not restore the iphone because the password was incorrect" I know for a fact im using the correct password. and it has previously worked. is anyone else having this issue.

    Hi, I also get the message "itunes could not restore the iphone because the password was incorrect" though I am never prompted to enter a password anywhere! Nor was the backup password encrypted to begin with! Really strange, any pointers will be greatly appriciated!

  • How to format the HDD on my iMac before restoring it from Time Machine.

    I need to re-format my HDD to enable enlarging the BOOTCAMP partition.
    I had BOOTCAMP installed since day one and needed to enlarge that partition. As it was the only partition on the drive I had to delete it as increasing the size was not possible.
    Having done that, the HDD showed it had less capacity available. I could not use the vacated space from BOOTCAMP.
    I now need to reformat the HDD, restore all the "Apple" data and make a larger partition for BOOTCAMP.
    I can not find the procedure to do this.
    Anyone who is familiar with this procedure?
    Thanks,
    Kommer

    Before you do anything: remember
    - that formatting your startdisk can not be done from that disk itself, you can do it from the Restore Partition (if you have lion or higher).
    - that the bootcamp partition should be deleted with the Bootcamp Assistant !!
    - that when everything Mac is/was OK, you can make a new Bootcamp partition after the original Bootcamp Partition is gone, you do not necessarily reformat the start disk and no need to create partitions: Bootcamp Assistant does that for you !!
