Playbook won't reboot

Tried Security Wipe of my PLaybook as I couldn't get myy calendar to work after two years with no problem. Now I can't reboot Playbook ...won't connect to PC as setup isn't complete. Have tried power off/on, but to no avail.

Connect it to your PC with the BlackBerry Desktop Software running and then repeat the three button reset., that should force the Desktop Software to load/install to the device.

Blackberry Playbook won't reboot

Hi there,
I wonder if you can help me. I have a problem with my playbook as it won't reboot. When I switch it on the red button coms up and all seems to be working fine. However after about 1 minute of rebooting, the playbook switches off. Can you please help.

This darn thing WON'T TURN ON! No lights come on or anything either.
Connect to your known good wall outlet charger.
Leave it connected for several hours.. even 24 hours.
Every 4-5 hours WITH THE CHARGER STILL CONNECTED, press and hold down the power button for 20 seconds.
If you see any LED red or yellow activity, that is good. LEAVE it to continue to charge.
REPEAT this: Every 4-5 hours WITH THE CHARGER STILL CONNECTED, press and hold down the power button for 20 seconds.

BB Playbook won't connect wifi after upgrade to OS 2.1.0.1526

MY BB Playbook won't connect via wifi to my home network after upgrading the OS to version 2.1.0.1526
It worked fine until the upgrade.
Now, every time it resumes, the connection is lost and I get the message Unable to obtain an IP address.
The only method I have found around this is to reboot my modem.
TIA
Bill

Can i change operating system from useless blackberry to other operating system on playbook tablet.

Help! My Mac mini won't reboot

Hi. I posted yesterday (in the Safari forum) concerning a problem I was having with Safari 3.0.4 after updating to 10.4.11. Basically, it wouldn't run. Anyway, I did a bunch of searches on the Web (including this forum) to try to figure out what to do. One piece of advice was to move System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.frameworkapplicationservices.fram ework to the desktop.
Well, I did that, and things started acting weird. I tried to copy it back, but the process just seemed to hang. So, I did what I thought was obvious but was apparently a bad idea: I rebooted. Guess what--now my Mac won't reboot. I just get a perpetual hourglass.
I tried doing repairs with Disk Utility, but that didn't fix the problem. I also did a superfluous Hardware Check from the same OS disk, and that turned out normal.
So, what's the solution? A visit to my friendly Apple dealer for some service? Or am I just permanently hosed with no recourse? Please let me know what I can do. Thanks!

Sadly Apple stores are rarely set up for the purpose of completing backups and securing data, so that's not something you can rely on them to do. Some Apple approved service providers are better equipped for doing this, but in the end, it's not a good (or comfortable) proposition to trust your data to anyone else, and the more important that data, the less good, (or comfortable) it is if you have to.
The risk of data loss is relatively small in this situation - particularly if you ran 'repair disk' from disk utility and it reported no errors. That generally would indicate the drive is healthy and there are no indications of damaged data or file structures. Still there is always a risk!
In your situation, if I were faced with the knowledge that I was going to be buying an external drive for future backups, I'd be inclined to buy it now (selecting a firewire-connected hard drive of at least the same, if not much larger capacity than the internal), and then run Disk Utility again, this time (carefully) selecting the external drive, partitioning it under the Apple scheme, then formatting it (MacOS Extended (journaled) and then installing MacOS on it from your 10.3 installer. After that, I'd boot to it by holding down the option key during startup, then selecting the external drive from the list that (after a couple of minutes) should appear. Then the internal drive will be mounted on the desktop under the external which has booted the system. That will give you to option to copy your iPhoto and iTunes libraries to the external drive, and thus secure your data.
Once that's done, you can reboot to the install disk and basically even erase and install, because your data is safe on the external drive!
After the internal is set up again, and fully updated, it then becomes a simple matter of moving your data back to it, and then erasing the external once more, and setting up your backups with SuperDuper! or CCC.
It might sound like a bit of messing about, but that would keep your data safe in your own hands!

MacBook Pro won't reboot. Get spinning circle even after hard drive replaced at Apple Store

MacBook Pro won't reboot. Have to reinstall OSX each time I shut down in order to get it to start up. What could be wrong? I had the hard drive replaced already.

You shouldn't be using the disc at all. I thought I had made that clear. Boot from your recovery partition and run Disc Utility. If you get the same result -- the internal drive can't be repaired -- then you should consider replacing it. No storage device can be trusted, in my opinion, after throwing an error like that. But whether you choose to replace it or erase it, you have to get the data out first.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to fully boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot from your recovery partition (10.7 or later), a local Time Machine backup volume (10.7.2 or later), or your installation disc (10.6.8 or earlier.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
How to back up and restore your files
2. If you have a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive.
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

MSI Z87I Won't Reboot or Shut DOwn

My new system won't shut down or reboot from the OS (Ubuntu 14.04) or from the BIOS settings, i.e. Settings -> Save & Exit -> Save Changes and Reboot will not reboot the system. All my peripherals will turn off, but the fans stay on and the only way to power off the system is to long-hold the power switch on the front of the case or turn off the power at the PSU.
There is ONE case in which the system will reboot. If I go to Settings -> Save & Exit, choose "Restore Defaults" and then select "Save Changes and Reboot," the system will reboot one time, but it won't reboot or shut down after this.
I'm already on my second MoBo since I thought it was a MoBo issue.
Specs:
SSD: Patriot Pyro 60GB
Memory: 2x PNY 4GBH2X02E99927-16-H
CPU: Intel Core i3-4150 LGA1150
PSU: Thermaltake TR2 500W
I've tried reseating the MoBo as well as testing it outside of the case with no luck.

Ah, thanks! Got it.
It looks to me like that is a different link to the same program, as when I downloaded it I got 'MSIHQ Tool 1.25g Installer(1).rar' as the filename, since I had just downloaded 'MSIHQ Tool 1.25g Installer.rar' from the link I posted (or perhaps from a page pointed to by that page, I've already forgotten where I got it...)
I notice that the '180' file has a batch file that runs 'fpt'. Am I supposed to run that batch file, or run 'efiflash bios.bin'? (Or both if this is the first time I've flashed the motherboard)

em nope, its the same program. (1) is auto renamed because the same name was already existing in your download folder

no need to run anything
just let the tool to prepare the USB key then boot from it
when this menu appear select option 2:
1 Run Memtest
2 Proceed with BIOS Update
3 Flash back to prevision bios
then press any key after read some safety instructions
then when asked if you want to Run Memtestx86, answer with "N"
then flash will start and will be asked for reboot when its done
you no need to type or run anything manually, its tottaly automated

Older mac mini won't reboot from Install DVD?

I've passed on my 2006 era mac mini to my daughter. We can't seem to get to a factory settings because it won't reboot from the install DVD. It keeps cycling through to the normal reboot.

Could be damaged disks.
BestBuy sells disk repair kits.
But for about the same price as disk repair kit, you could call 1-800-676-2775 and give them the unit serial number and pay shipping/handling fee for replacement.
Assuming it is bad disks.

Playbook won't charge

Bought a refurbished playbook. The playbook won't charge! the mini usb cable dosn't go in the port of the PB all the way. I have tried using a differnt cable - and it dosn't work. the cable is ok as it is charging my cellphone right now. Can you help my? Is ther a hardeware problem? What to do?

Did you purchase the playbook with some type of warranty? Normally refurbs come with a 30-90 day.
Did it power up and work fine when you received it? I ask because if it did I would assume that whomever you purchased it from utilized what's referee to as a "rapid travel charger" on Amazon (as well refered as a charging pod, extra at places like Walmart...ect...just Google "Magnetic Charged for Playbook").
It quite honestly sounds like a common issue Playbook has in that the connection inside the playbook for the chargef has broken. As well, housing cannot utilize the USB port connecting it to your computer to charge as the connection is not strong enough to charge the playbook via the computer.
You are left with one option (besides sending it back from where it came, which I highly recommend because it obviously WAS NOT refurbished like you were told) that option is to purchase the Rapid Travel Charger - Amazon is way cheaper for this item.
My first Playbook was a Playbook 16gb. First the connection went out like yours. Rapid chger fixed that issue, then the whole unit went dark. All this after approx 15mths (remember, mine was new).
I just purchased a new Playbook 64gb. The whole unit seems better made.
The issues you and I had were normalwith the older units.

Clustered Oracle VM server 2.1.2 won't reboot or hangs

Has anyone experience with clustered Oracle VM servers 2.1.2 seem to be hang or won't reboot until the server is power reset?
Every time I reboot the master pool server, the server seems to be hung or won't reboot. To solve this problem I have to power reset the server or reboot the other server in the server pool or vice versa. This is not what I wanted. What do i need to do to have a smooth reboot of master server pool without reboot the other server in the server pool?
Thank you in advance.

Toshiba Tecra M1 - Won't reboot

Hello @ll
This is my first post on this forum. I write from poland, so forgive me for my poor english.
I have a problem with my old laptop (Toshiba Tecra M1). Computer won't reboot. After the Arch installation everything was fine, command init 6 was working correctly. When I was doing installs and configurations (adds daemon's to rc.conf, modifying fstab, install KDEmod etc.) i was rebooting system to see how it works. I don't know when, but after 3th, maybe 4th reboot system won't boot. I can see the screen which contains information about closing daemons, but after this listing I can see only black screen, computer stops and nothing happens.
Thanks for any advices

On this virtual way nobody can say for sure what the problem is. As Joe already wrote it is hardware related issue and it should be checked by technicians. Fact is that this Tecra M1 is pretty old notebook model (I had it 8 years ago) so I think repair is not a option.

My Ipad 2 won't reboot. the little circle keeps going round but the buttons don't work. help please.

My Ipad 2 won't reboot. The little circle keeps going round but that's all, it won't boot. nothing happens when I press the button on the top either. Please help.

After you hold the power and home buttons at the SAME time until the Apple Logo appears (ignore the red slider to shut down) then let go of both buttons and you don't need to do anything else. Your iPad will restart all by itself. Just be patient, but leave your iPad alone after the Logo appears.

Macbook pro won't reboot after installing lion

After installing Lion on a 2007 MacBook pro, it won't reboot. Just gets to the gray screen with the spinning wheel. Have tried re-installing and disk repair to no avail. Anyone else figured out how to fix?

Lion only runs on Intel based systems which have to be core2duo. with a minimum of 2GB RAM.
If these is given on your system, in most cases it comes from running old PPC-Applications which are not longer supported since Lion.
Try to start your MB in "Safe Mode" by holding option key (alt) imediately after first chime and disable / delete this applications.
