Need help getting out of safe mode.

It is my mother's thinkpad model 1838A11, I downloaded games for her through google play store, the apps show up in the apps section in the settings but no where else. Can't find them or play them, then noticed down in the bottom corner it says safe mode, I have very little experience with tablets but safe mode doesn't sound good to me. Could someone please tell me how to get it out of safe mode or tell me what else the problem may be, I've shut it off and back on while holding volume up and other things, but safe mode still pops up.
Thanks.
Solved!

i wanted to do trouble shooting, i put computer in safe mode & now i can not get out of safe mode. I've closed FF & re-started computer 3 times, even shut down computer, still in safe mode. What do i need to do to get out of safe mode?

Hi,
Please see this article: [[Firefox is stuck in Safe Mode]]
I hope that helps. Post back if not.

EDIT: Just noticed that you already rebooted. You say that you "put computer in safe mode". Is firefox in safe mode or your whole computer?
If '''Firefox''' is stuck in safe mode despite reboot
* Check that the shift keys on your keyboard are not stuck down.
* Uninstall firefox and install again (your settings will not be lost as they are stored in your profile folder).
Let me know if neither of those works.

How to get out of Safe Mode?

Hi,
I started up in safe mode and was able to trouble shoot a peripheral problem. However, I still have a HD icon on my desktop. How do I get out of Safe mode? I did restart a couple of times but the icon continues to appear.
Thanks!

If you have rebooted, then you are no longer in safe mode. The HD icon is not an indicator of being in safe mode. If you don't want to see hard drive icons on the Desktop, you can set that preference in Finder -> Finder menu -> Preferences -> General.

Get out of safe mode in windows 8.1

How do I get out of safe mode in windows 8.1

Hi,
To get out of Safe Mode, you can try this:
Control Panel > icon view > Administrative Tools> System Configuration >
Boot Tab > UNCHECK Safe Boot
Then Restart.
If the you still fail to get out of safe mode, considering that corrupted drivers cause your issue:
Please open Device manager, and remove drivers about Video, audio, Network adapter, Bluetooth and additional USB device and try to reboot to see what's going on.

How do I get out of Safe Mode?

I have a vintage 2007 iMac that is very slow since the Yosemite and Mavericks upgrades. Apparently I've used up all my RAM (1GB x 2). After speaking to a technical adviser over the telephone a couple of weeks ago, he talked me through a few things within safe mode and said it may or may not help but worth a try. Last night I tried to go through the procedure of removing both the above operating systems, but didn't really know what I wa doing and was guessing command letters on the keyboard.
What I want is to just get back to normal mode so that I can use my slow Mac again. Nothing woks. as you've guessed, I'm a complete novice. Any advice would be much appreciated please. I put in a call to Apple support this morning, waited for half an hour only to find I that I had called wrong support team and was then cut off.
Thanks, Kathleen

Thank you Paul for your quick response. Unfortunately this doesn't work. I must have tried 2 dozen times to restart, sometimes pressing various random keys before the Apple logo appears, sometimes not pressing anything. To get out and back in I have force shutdown.
What happens all the time is that I keep getting the Language window and then a box called OS X Utilities, then I've no idea what to do. The first option "Restore from Time Machine Backup" - I don't even know what Time Machine does. I don,t backup anything - my work production usage is nil.Then "Reinstall OS X" keeps telling me that I'm not connected to the Internet - yes I am. I only have wifi which has never let me down, I'm sending this via my iPad. "Get help online" wants a Safari log-in keychain - don't know what that is and in any case still says I'm not connected to the internet. Finally, in "Disk Utility" I've tried every which way and nothing is accepted wherever I put it.
Any further suggestions will be most welcome.
Regards, Kathleen

How do I get out of safe mode in windows 8.1

I entered Safe Mode in my Envy TS 15 running windows 8.1 to fix some issues with my Norton software and now I can't figure out how to exit back to normal mode. Internet is shut off in safe mode (even though I selected safe mode with networking) so I can run any of the Help & Support resolutions. Anyone know how to do this?

Nanna,
Welcome to the HP Forum.
Try / Consider
Control Panel > icon view > Administrative Tools> System Configuration >
Boot Tab > UNCHECKSafe Boot
Restart/ Reboot the computer and log in
OR
Another path to the same place:
·         Start the notebook and let it start up in Safe Mode
·         Log in
·         Windows key + R(Opens the Run Window)
·         Type msconfig
·         Opens the System Configuration Menu > Click Boottab
·         REMOVE the tick next to Safe Boot > Applyto save
·         Restart/ Reboot the computer
==========================================================================
In addition, you might make sure your security router is set to
Encryption type AES
and
Security type WPA2-Personal
==========================================================================
For later, this is real useful to have and it is easy to set up. I have done this.
Safe Mode can easily be added to the boot screen!

I can't tell if I have Mozilla 5 or Firefox 3.6. But it always says it is in SafeMode. How do I get out of safe mode?

There are no more details. Firefox is listed as being in Safe Mode and everytime it opens I have to request that it either open in Safe Mode or choose the settings I want and then start up Firefox, but it never retains the new settings and goes back to Safe Mode.

Cant get out of safe mode

HP tech support took over my computer in an attempt to fix a problem with my HP printer. The screen has been turned back to me in the safe mode. I have attempted several time to close the safe mode and go to normal mode using on screen instructions
from Windows Help and Support but nothing works. HELP. Thank you

Hi,
You can also try this registry fix:
Safe boot is administered in the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Option]
"OptionValue"=dword:00000001
You can change OptionValue back to 0 the return to normal mode (after reboot).

Firefox 3.6.13 keeps starting up in Safe Mode, offering options to get out of Safe Mode, such as Disable all add-ons, restore default search engines.

Other options it offers: Reset toolbars and controls, Delete all bookmarks except for backups, and Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults.
My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, version 6.1.
This is a new computer, came with IE 8, but I don't think I used it much before downloading and making Firefox my default browser. I made some changes in the default home page, added some bookmarks, added Firefox's suggested Add-ons, updated them, and am running AVG freeware version 10.0.1191.
Please help me get Firefox to run in normal mode.

I also have this problem and it just started in the last week or so. It seems to be dependent on my home network and the problem only exists with firefox. I have used chrome and IE8 with no issues. I can verify tomorrow that it only exists in my network but one thing I was able to test is that the problem exists even on my linux boot. I am totally dumbfounded with this problem and I can't find anything that will allow the gmail page to load. All other pages I have tried load fine, all be it a little slower than normal but they load. If anyone knows of a difference between firefox and all other browsers on how it goes through the router I would appreciate the info cause I don't know of any differences.

How to get out of Recovery Mode? Please help!!

Hello all,
I have a Nomad Muvo^2 that is stuck in Reocvery Mode. Turns out that when i loaded recovery mode, i didn't really need it cuz it was just my computer that was messed up. Now with a new computer and me being able to access the E dri've for it and see its contents, i can't get out of Recovery Mode. When i turn my player on it reads this message:
Recovery Mode v.00
Then it lists the different options like PC Scandisk, etc...
How can i get out of it's
Could someone please help me?
Also could i use the Recovery Tool for it even though my specific type of player is not listed?
Thank you

Hi,
What happens when you select the Clean Up option?
Refer to this article for more information on the recovery mode options. The recovery tool is not compatible with this player.

If you were using Apple's BootCamp and received this message, quit it and open Disk Uility in your Applicaitons/Utilities folder.
Select the Macintosh HD partition on the left and select Erase and Erase Free Space > Zero option and let it complete (important) this will check the spare space for bad sectors that can cause issues formatting partitions.
Once it's completed, try creating a partiton again in BootCamp.
If that doesn't work, then hold command option r keys down while connected to a fast internet connection, Internet Recovery should load (spinning globe) and then in that Disk Utility, select your entire internal drive and click > First Aid > Repair Disk and Permissions.
reboot and attempt Bootcamp again.
If you still get a error, it might be that you have OS X data on the bottom area where BootCamp partition needs to go. This would occur if you had the drive or computer for a long time or wrote a large amount of files to the drive and nearly filling it up and then reduced some, but it left traces in the area BootCamp needs to go.
To fix this
BootCamp: "This disc can not be partitioned/impossible to move files."

Try using the app My Contacts Backup, which will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email. Send this email to yourself, open it on your Mac and double-click the attachment to import them to Address Book (or Contacts if you have Mountain Lion).

What exactly are you trying to do? PVRs are for recording from TV not computers.
Either way, if it's complaining about DOS mode, it's Windows oriented software and not Mac compatible.
