K430 with OneKey 4.0 has no option to make a recovery disk

What are my options on this machine to make a recovery disk and backup in case of a hard drive failure? Also noticed OneKey 4.0 won't recognize external hard drives greater than 1TB. Why?
Solved!

Hi Ajssinc,
I understand your concern. Hence, the best way to backup is by backing up your personal data stored in the computer and then “Create a USB recovery drive” using a flash drive which contains only the OS (Operating System) backed up files.
Do post us back for further queries.
Best Regards
Shiva Kumar

  • Can you make a recovery disk with a mac?

    I have two mac computers. One works that I currently use for personal use. But I recentlly bought a "fixer up iBook G4" that needs an install disk of 10.5 Leopard. I cannot find my disks that came with my Powerbook g4 but can I make a restore disk or recovery disk so I can restore the operating system that's on the iBook g4?
    Thanks in advance!

    Connect the two computers using a FireWire cable. Use Target Disk Mode to clone the one drive to the other. Boot the iBook into TDM, then boot the PB normally. The iBook's drive should appear on the PB's Desktop. Use Disk Utility to erase the iBook's hard drive, then use Restore to clone the PB's drive to the iBook:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
      1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
      2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
      3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination
          entry field.
      5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
      6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

  • Upgrading a new Tecra Laptop with Windows 7 Pro to Windows 8.1 via the recovery disks

    Just received a new Tecra Z50-A laptop from my company. I need to install Windows 8.1 which is supposed to be on the recovery disks I received.The laptop doesn't have a DVD drive and they are not available to ship until the end of the month from Toshiba.
    1. Can the update be done from a shared DVD drive on another machine?
    2. Has anyone done this and what steps are involved?
    3. Where they are revovery disks -- will this wipe all of the applications that are installed on the laptop?
    Thanks
    JL

    Which Tecra Z50-A? There is a label on the bottom.
    I know of no way to install from an ODD on another computer. Best to obtain the recovery media on a thumbdrive. Toshiba offers to ship either one.
    Recovery media wipes the drive clean and restores it to a predetermined state, which includes all the drivers, utilities, and bloatware that comes with a new machine.

  • Stand speaker with charger and it has the function to make phone calls

    Dear Team,
    kindly advise me if I could get accessory on my I-phone 6, as below description:
    Stand Charger + speaker with the function enabling receiving
    phone calls at same time align with speaker.

    Hello Geoffers and welcome to the forums;
    After each of these steps, try to make a call:
    1. Try turning Airplane mode on and off.
    2. Try opening the phone app, open the menu from the top left-hand corner and tap Preferences. From there, scroll down and tap on Update Network Settings, then Update PRL. If your device does not have one of them, that's okay.
    3. Next, try restarting your phone by holding down the power button and moving the ringer mute switch back and forth 3 times, then let go of the power button. The screen will blank out and the device will restart.
    After that, give Bell a call, there may be something going on with your account that they could assist with.
    Hope this helps,

  • Problem with HP G62 Recovery Disks

    Hello,
    I am having a problem with restoring the operating system on an HP G-62 Notebook. When I first purchased the notebook I was unable to make the recovery disks, so I recently ordered some new ones from HP. Because I has installed Ubuntu on the notebook, I wiped it from the hard drive used Wipedrive to delete the old Ubuntu operating system I had installed.
     The notebook reads the first disk ok and installs part of windows, but when the screen comes on asking for disk number two it freezes up and never installs anything when you try to move anything on that screen it wont do anything and it wont install the second disk. It just keeps saying 'please wait'.
    Thanks, Robert

    Hi, Robert:
    I can't help you to get the recovery disks to work, but if you can read all 25 characters of the windows 7 product key on the bottom of your PC, you can make your own windows 7 installation disk to reinstall the operating system.
    Here's how:
    If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
    Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
    Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
    Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
    Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

    Make Your Own Yosemite Installer
    After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
       2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
    Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)
    Click on the Erase button.
    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy and paste the following command line in its entirety into the Terminal window.
    sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app --nointeraction
    Press RETURN, enter admin password (will not echo to the window) then press RETURN again.
    You need to have the installer in your Applications folder or change the paths in the above command line.
    Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.

  • L305D-S5934 Has formatted hard drive, can I load recovery disk from a different machine?

    Hi,
    I have an older L305D (can't remember the sub group model, but it does not have the web cam).  The LCD screen went out so I bought a L305D-S5934 with a formatted hard drive.  I swapped my old hard drive into the new computer, but it will not boot up.  It tried to recover, but that failed.  Can I make a recovery disk with my old computer to use in the new one, even though they are different sub models?  The new computer has a Windows license on it.  If I can't make a recovery disk with the old one that will work, can I get a copy of Vista Home and use the license on the new computer to install it or does the license only work with the recovery disks?  Once I have an operating system installed, I know I can get the right drivers from this website.  Any help/ideas would be appreciated!  I would rather not have to buy a recovery disk through Toshiba if I can avoid it.

    That won't work.
    can I get a copy of Vista Home and use the license on the new computer to install it or does the license only work with the recovery disks?
    The OEM key won't work with a retail version of Windows. (And with the recovery discs it's unnecessary, because that one is pre-activated.)
    The recovery media from Toshiba costs less than the product key for the retail installation DVD. And you don't need to mess around adding drivers and utilities.

  • How to create Factory Default Recovery Disc with OneKey Recovery 4.0

    I have a K430 and before I use it it (as with any machine I have bought) I wanted to make my recovery disc(s).
    Throughout this website there are guides to do this with version 7, but this desktop has version 4.0 of OKR
    I can save an image of my system partition but need the ability to install on to a clean hard drive in case of hard drive failure. 
    I have checked the Kb and forums and been through the Windows 8 programs but nothing points me the right way.
    This is compounded by the fact that none of my drive imaging tools like the Seagate drive that was shipped in this machine (Ghost4Linux, CloneZilla, Acronis Easy Migrate) 
    Where is my option to create said media? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just to close this one.
    I spoke to customer support on the phone as this post remained unanswered,
    There are no recovery disc to buy or create for this machine, so should the hard drive fail you would need to source your own discs.
    This machine will now be returned, a lost sale for the sake of a DVD.
    Must say the guy I spoke to on the phone was really helpful and courteous, sadly held back by company policy.

  • What do i do ? My i phone 4 has no option to reduce the motion picture. It is causing me a serious problem. Can anyone please help ?

    After several attempts to get some help from Apple, it has become clear to me that my i phone 4 has no options within accessibility to reduce the motion picture.
    I have a serious problem with the new software but unfortunatly i cannot go backwards with this update. Apple for obvious reasons will not advise any downgrading options. Can anyone please help me? Is there a third party option here. I do not want to pay for a new phone or replace the i phone as i run a mac,desktop and i pad... !! Thank you.

    It's only that I'm not clear why you are reluctant to post it. If you have a podcast in the iTunes Store then it's there for the world to see - they might search on its subject or title, for example, even if they don't actually know about it from you. If you look at other posts in this forum you will see that usually people post their URLs and then I can examine the feed and hopefully find out from that what the problem is. Without this information no-one can give you anything more than wild guesses.

  • Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.

    Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.  iTunes is thinking my old iphone 4 is the same phone as my iphone 5C.  When I plugged in my iphone 5C it auto synced my 5C to iTunes and it wiped my 5C and restored it to the same content as is on my iPhone 4.  This is a big problem since my 5 year old has been using the iPhone 4.  It's all Mickey Mouse and Backyardigans.  (Total photo/app/contacts loss)
    I was able to update the 5C and restore from a 3 month old backup that is actually the content from the 5C but now when I plug in my 5C it wants to "setup as new phone" or "restore from backup"  What's going on?  I'm afraid to choose either option.
    How can I get iTunes to see these devices as 2 and not one?
    Can I use my Apple ID on both phones still or is this the problem?

    They were both displaying the same name in iTunes.  I changed the name of the iPhone 4 before the 5C was plugged in but it still went ahead with syncing it to the 4's data.
