Hi,
If you receive this message when starting the notebook, try the following.
Shut down the notebook.  Tap away at f10 as you start the notebook to enter the bios menu.  Under the Advanced or Diagnostic tab you should find the facility to run a test on the Hard Drive.  Post back with the details of any error messages.
If you receive this message while Windows is running , click the Start Menu, click Computer, left click Local Disc C once to highlight it, right click Local Disc C and select Properties.  Click the Tools tab and then click the button to 'Check the Drive for Errors'.  In the following window make sure both boxes are ticked and then click Start.  Agree to schedule the check at the next system restart and then restart the notebook - this process can take a couple of hours to complete before loading back into Windows.
Regards,
DP-K

  • Is there a way to recover old emails? I moved a few folders around on the hard disk and now my emails have reverted to Factory settings and all my old emails and address book have vanished. I am still running on 10.4.11 and Apple can not help me.

    Is there a way to recover old emails? I moved a few folders around on the hard disk and now my emails have reverted to Factory settings and all my old emails and address book have vanished. I am still running on 10.4.11 and Apple can not help me. Does anyone out there have any idea on how to recover my lost emails and/or addresses?

    Well, your profile info says 10.4.11, and you are posting your question in the iMac (PPC) category.  If you are running Snow Leopard, it must be a fairly recent Intel iMac.
    In that case, you should definitely post your question here
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.6_snow_leopard
    where other Snow Leopard users can see your question.  Restate the problem, what error messages you get, and what you have tried already (for trouble-shooting).

    VCA is to make sure that you have a understanding of the general concepts before you go to do a full VCP course.
    I have taken the VCA datacenter and it was very much a case of: What product does what?
    You wouldnt get a job on merit of having a VCA where as you would with the VCP.

  • How do I remove the Hard disk from computer? I have an old iMac, model M5521 circa 2000.  I need to wipe the disk clean to DOD specs before donating it.

    I have an iMac Model M5521, circa 2000, which I must wipe the hard drive clean to DOD specs before donating it.
    I have the DOD software on another non-apple computer.  I need to remove the hard disk drive from the iMac to do this.
    How do I get to the hard drive?  I find only two screws on the back of the monitor/case and they do not help.  What am I missing?
    Thanks

    It's not too hard but you have to take off the bottom cover of the case. These instructions shoudl show what yo uneed to do.
    http://www.scribd.com/doc/103447/iMac-G3-Disassembly-Guide
    I pulled the original 10G hard drive from our M5521 and replaced it with a larger one. The whole thing took under 45 minutes, including the 15 minutes it took me to recover a screw that fell into the works.

  • Hi, i bought an iphone 5s online, but it is icloud locked and the account owner forget the password and now i cant use it, it ask me everytime the password to activate iphone. what i have to do to start to use my iphone?

    what i have to do to unlock my iphone? i try to restore it with DFU mode but it doesn t work . the phone ask me everytime the password :(

    Hello vlady1994,
    It sounds like you purchased an iPhone from an independant party online and you are running into the Activation lock asking for the original owners Apple ID password. The original owner will have to first reset their account password:
    Apple ID: Changing your password
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5624
    Then they will need to remove the device from their account with this article:
    Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
    If the previous owner is not present
    Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Click All Devices to open a list of devices linked to their account, then select the device to be removed.
    Click the Erase button to erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, don't enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
    When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device is erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Sleeping mode problem: the hard disk doesn't stop to run.

    Hello,
    I try to put my iMac (Lion) in the sleeping mode. The screen becomes black but the hard disk doesn't stop. I don't see any live process in the activity monitor. This problem was not there before and I have no idea to correct it.
    I you have a good idea for me !!!
    Thanks

    Then perhaps you have something now running on your system that is causing the computer not to fully sleep. You may want to open Activity Monitor to check what is running and to see if any application or process may be crashing.
    You can also try creating a new, temporary user account, then logging into the new account to see if this issue ceases.

  • I have a 2nd gen Mac book air with Lion. The hard disk has filled up even though i keep my data , music etc on hard drive . I used disk inspector to find where problem was and it is 20GB in the hidden files under the user directory can i resolve this ?

    I have a 2nd Gen MAc book Air with Lion .  The 60GB hard disc has quickly filled up despite me keeping most of my data on a portable hard drive .  I used disk inspector to locate the problem but found that it was was in 20 GB of hidden files in my user directory .  Is this correct and is there anything i can do about it ? Using disk inspector you can not see individual hudden diretories or files. I did unhide them but there is a mass of diretories etc and so no way i could see if this is one or multiple files using the space. Library System and  Applications are at 4 3 and 3 GB respectvely.  The data I actually keep on there is 9GB    Thanks for any help

    I think the problem is Quick Time Player. I am using OS 10.6.8 by the way.
    I tried it out again.
    I had about 26 GB of space before I played an .avi video.
    After the movie started to play (it was slow to load), I got a warning message that my startup disk was full. I opened Disk Utility and it told me I had no space left (about 20 MB or something like that was left).
    I watched to the end of the movie.
    Then I quit Quicktime Player.
    And I shut down the computer.
    I turned on the computer and checked Disk Utility. I have about 26 GB of space.
    I think for some reason Quicktime Player uses up a lot of the disk space when it runs movies that are problematic. This movie I was watching did not open with vlc.
    I normally use vlc to watch movies.
    Probably it doesn't use up this much space when the movie is OK.
    I think there's a problem with this particular movie. It is about 50 MB so it's not that big a file. I watch .smi subtitles with it. The Quicktime Player automatically loads the subtitle file in this case because the subtitle file has the same name as the movie file.
    I watched about 10 movie files from the same series that I downloaded together and did not have any problem watching them. I watched them on vlc. But this latest movie had problems I think (as I repeat). It did not load on vlc even though I waited for a minute, and normally movies load instantly on vlc. 
    So I think that movie file caused problems. It made QT player use up a lot of hard disk space.
    I had better avoid watching that movie in the future. I don't want it to wreck my hard drive.
    So to sum up, everything is back to normal. I have the hard disk space that I should have. However, I am scared of damaging my hard drive due to shonky movie files that eat up all the space when they are played using QT player, and so I will not watch those files in the future, as I do not know why the files do that.

  • My hard disk has mechanical issues, is it possible to recover any of the information?

    My iMac is a year and a half old, one day I turned it on and it wouldn't load, I mean, it stayed on the white screen with the apple. I tried everything, nothing happened so I took it for maintenance. They checked it and said the hard disk has mechanical issues, is it possible to save any of the information?
    How come, using it such for such a short period of time, the hard disk is already damaged?

    Apple isn't known to use the highest quality hard drives. The Seagate in my mid-2011 iMac gets a 2 year warranty when sold on it's own, which in a world of 3-5 year warranties, isn't inspiring.  I got Applecare for that reason.
    Your year and a half old iMac has one of the hard drives that either needs to be replaced by Apple (which may be a refurbished drive, if that matters to you) or you can send your iMac to OWC (macsales.com) and have them install a drive. Apple now uses a proprietary connector which has a sensor included on the drive. OWC has a service where they'll work magic to install the drive of your choice with added sensor, so the system works. If you were to install a regular hard drive yourself, the system thinks the hard drive is overheating and runs the fan on full.

  • Big Probelms, Mt theory is its the hard disk

    So i had to force shutdown last night on my macbook, it was running basic apps, mail, firefox, msn. so when i went to boot up i got a blank grey screen and the hard disk clicked twice.
    I need to get the files off this disk but my macbook wont even go to target disk mode, when i boot from the install cd disk utility and system profiler dont even recognise the hard disk connected.
    if i call apple will they send me a new hard disk in the post nd take back the old one or do i have to go and send the whole machine to apple ?
    PS. People in Ireland, dont use mactivate, they ruined my macbook !!!

    Only Apple can be the judge of how things will ship. Call their AppleCare number directly to find out:
    (353) 1850 946 191

  • Weird noise out of the hard disk

    So, as i was listening to the music throgh earphones, i could hear a noise of the harddisk. It sounds like an old G3 apple laptop did.
    It sounds like it's blending something, the sound is so Extra-terestrial-science-fictional.
    You can hear the hard disk change songs and you can hear the hard disk turning around from a good distance.
    you can hear it very good while charging.
    impressive though.
    Is it normal? Is it OK?
    tnx.m.

    I've had that message appear when I connect my car charger sometimes. And it's the car charger they sell at the AT&T store made specifically for iPhones. It doesn't do it every time, just once in awhile.
    I've never had it just appear out of the blue, though.

  • Dm4 wont boot- hard disk error but passes hard disk test

    My dm4 laptop froze yesterday and I was forced to restart it- it is 3 years old but I have had no issues with it. When trying to reboot it will not start and if I run windows repair it comes up with the failed 2 hdd error. I thought it was a hard drive failure as I originally got a 305 error code when running the hard drive test. Upon opening system diagnostics I ran the hard disk test and it passed no problem. However if I run any of the other tests- start up, run in, or system tune up, I get the error Hard Disk 1. I tried the hard disk test again and it passes. Ive run Avg virus scan and found no threats. I have no idea what is going on- I did a BIOS rollback and the computer still wont boot up. What is happening and can I recover my data?

    With the intermittent errors,it sounds like the hard drive is failing and will need to be replaced. A retail laptop SATA hard drive can be used. Just be sure to get one of at least equal capacity as the original in order to use Recovery Discs. It can be larger, but not smaller capacity.For instance if you have a 500GB hdd you could use a 750GB hdd but not a 320GB hdd.
    As for whether it is possible to recover your files it depends on how much life is left in the hard drive.Many times you can remove it, attach it to a USB Adapter or install in a USB Enclosure to plug into  working machine via usb port and copy files over to the hard drive of host machine.
    If you need more help selecting/replacing the hdd post back with full Model & Product Number as listed on the Service Tag attached to bottom of laptop.
