PLEASE HELP : Lenovo T61 recovery

hi,
I have tried to install windows XP in my lenovo T61 laptop. during that i havent deleted the hidden service partition, but i deleted the partition that contained windows vista. Currently XP is installed, but i want to get vista back , what is the dos commands that will allow me to view the hidden partiton and then enable me to run the vista setup from it ?
Thank you for support.

There is no DOS command that I know of.
There is a repair diskette that can fix it but it requires a floppy drive.

Hai,
If you still have mouse pointer moving when typing, following tips may help from what i experiances before.
Some optical mouse required a mouse pad for it's working properly. it's depend on mouse quality, if u do not have mouse pad on your mouse, some mouse will detect motion error on your tables.
If you do not have mouse pad, pls use a white paper put under your mouse and try it.
Turn off your Touchpad, because when u typing, your hand may be disturb Touchpad area and its mouse point will moving. because touch pad is a sensetive part if something put under it. (Refer to your Fn key to turn on/off touchpad)

Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

Please help, problems running recovery

hi, i have a satellite P755-S5262 RUNNING WINDOWS 7 64BIT WITH AN i7 PROCESSOR
when i first got my laptop i was having some minor problems with it so i did a restore from the harddrive and that fixed things up. i made some recovery media and the went about setting it up, the made a backup with nere back it up 11. later on more problems and i tried to restore from nero back up and backup didn't work so i tried recovery and it won't recover from the hard drive but my recoverey media worked and everything was fine. so one late sleepy night
i triede to install some free software which didn't work so i uninstalled it using REvo uninstall and made a bad mistake, windows would not boot. most of the repair options, including toshiba recovery were not coming up.
i had my media but after inserting disc one it said files were loading and the nothing happened. anyway i finally got
recoverey to come up but after choosing out of box recovery with partitions the same i got thew message preparing partitiuons and the error 08-0E89-0000 PARTITION preperation failed
please help!

If the problem is with the recovery media, ordering replacement recovery media might be able to help.
If that doesn't work, it could be a failing hard drive.

from what i understand from an iranian friend in dubai IBM and by extension lenovo dealers are very limited..
and the model selection is even more limited..
so much so that i send him a "care package" (you really need to be of a certain age to understand this reference, so google it!) every few years..
under ibm the models available world wide were limited..
have you checked for dealers in singapore..?
or hong kong..?
happy hunting..

Please help Lenovo W540 suddenly restarts

I bought this laptop from US one month ago, suddenly when it is running a blue screen appears with error "MEMORY_MANAGEMENT" and the laptop restarts. I upgraded the windows from win7 to win8.the same is still happening.
did a hardware test but nothing is faulty. Can't return it to the US as I am in the Gulf now.
is this a hardware or software issue ??
thanks in advance

hi Bauden,
i did nothing to the system. I purchased this laptop one month ago and from the beggining suddenly a blue screen started to appear with sad face and various error types (such as:
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL...etc) and the laptop restarts immediately.
when the laptop is runnin normally nothing looks strange and everything is workin as it should be.
I installed win8 instead of win7 from the recovery disks while trying to resolve this issue but nothing changed. also updated the windows and all drivers using windows update and lenovo system update but also nothing changed.
I installed only two additional softwares: Photoshop Lightroom 5.5 & Nik Collection for photo editing
I noticed this issue getting worse
here are the laptop specs:
thinkpad w540
CPU: i7 2.4GHZ
RAM: 16GB
VGA: Nvidia Quadro K1100
Storage: 256 SSD

Please HELP - huge data recovery issues

Hello all,
The hard drive on my MacBook (late 2008 unibody, less than a year old, don't get me started) has gone to ****, and I am trying desperately to get the data off of it before I get a replacement. Got it out of the laptop and into an enclosure, it shows up fine, but when I try to transfer, I keep getting code 36 errors, so it does look like some of the files are messed up.
So yesterday I bought Disk Warrior, hoping against all hopes that this would help, and I rebuilt the hard drive, but I continue to get the same errors. So then I tried Restore in Disk Utility, no dice. I have Carbon Copy Cloner running right now (I'm out for the day), but given that it got through 200-something MBs of a drive with about 150 GB of data in four hours or so last night, I'm not all that hopeful. I think my last resort is to use ChronoSync to just make it skip the bad files, I mean, I can live with losing them, but it's just driving me crazy that it stops it every time, there's no way I can sit there and keep restarting the copy after every error (I mean, it's literally like every 10-15 files).
The one thing I am really worried about though is my pictures. The iPhoto library is just one big file, right? So I tried to copy that, same problem. Any thoughts on that specifically? Is it actually multiple files within the library file, so maybe ChronoSync would work for that too?
I guess my main questions are:
1) Any suggestions on possible ways to recover this data, as DiskWarrior seems to have failed?
2) Barring possibility of recovering data, any way to make it keep copying and skip bad files other than ChronoSync?
Any thoughts would be MUCH appreciated. I am about to go insane here. Thanks so much!!

I've definitely seen scenarios where Disk Warrior can't resolve the issue but Data Rescue II is able to get more files. It really depends on what's wrong with the hard drive. If it's a mechanic failure then there isn't much of anything in the software category that's going to help you. That's where you get into a place like Drive Savers or OnTrack and it's also where things get very expensive... very quickly.
If it's a drive partition map or file structure corruption, software would certainly would certainly work in an effort to fix it. From my experience in using Disk Warrior as a solution for friends, co-workers and clients, I've seen about 35-40% success rate. Again, it really depends on what's wrong with the HD.
The iPhoto Library is actually a package, there are a dozen or so folders within the iPhoto Library and then multiple levels of folder structures within them (containing all of your photos and thumbnails). Data Rescue II, theoretically, should allow you to see the contents of the library and try to extract. The problem, however, is sometimes the application will spit out file types like 0000100142.jpg and then you have to go through every single file and figure out what it is.

Please help. Nano recovery loop

It's a 5th gen nano with the click wheel. It died a few days ago and it would not revive when I connected to iTunes on my PC. I tried it on a mac and it came back and I restored the ipod, and it worked for about half a day after that. Now it goes into the recovery loop on both the mac and the pc. I've updated iTunes on both systems, I changed the drive letter on Windows, I formated the ipod on the mac and on the pc. Still getting the loop. Is this done? Is there any other fix?

I forgot, and when I get to the "waiting for ipod" the ipod's screen goes black and will not come onagain until itunes starts the recovery loop again. If it is unplugged it will not come on. I've tried all the click wheel commands.

"Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Now file will not open. Please Help?

I was working on an InDesign file, saved the file and tried to export it. I then got this message "Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart InDesign to recover work in any unsaved InDesign documents" - Return to Finder. I am now unable to open the file as the message keeps appearing at every attempt, what can I do, please help?

The recovery folder is empty and you can start ID normally, correct? But when you then try to open the file that crashed it crashes again? Is that also correct?
If it is, then it sounds like the file was damaged in the original crash. I would let ID try to recover the file once, just to be sure, though. So emepty the recovery folder again, launch ID from the Dock or the applications folder, then use File > Open... to open the file (and it won't hurt to choose the "as a copy" radio button in the dialog). If ID crashes, restart it without emptying the recovery folder one time. If it crashes again, the file is too damaged to open at all.
If it does open, immediately export to .idml, then open the .idml file and save as a new .indd with a new name (so you don't overwrite what you have now).
How much work is invloved in recreating the file? Do you have any older versions?

T61-somebody please help!!!

Hi, firstly, disclosures: I am not a technical person but I will try my best to enumerate what I remembered happening and doing on my laptop.
I have a lenovo t61 laptop, my operating system is a very slow vista.
i have had a few problems with using it in the past but all became ok after some time. But yesterday:
1. Going through about my daily routine- open windows are Microsoft Outlook, internet and Microsoft excel, it just died and wont open up.
2. Several minutes before that, I remember a pop up message saying I need to back up my files, asking if I would like to do it, clicked on yes. I think this is the one that made everything stop.
3. When I wanted to use the computer again (thinking it was just on sleep), it just won't start. Thinking it was just normal lagging, I manually turned it off by long pressing the on/off button and restarting using the same. a screen appeared asking if I would like to start auto repair or start windows normally. I chose start windows normally.
4. Still it won't start. Turned it off again and then the same screen appeared, removed the battery and put it back again, then turned it on, this time I chose start auto repair.
5. Auto repair wont finish! It pulled out an all nighter and when I woke up it still has not finished. The same Rescue and recovery screen is there.
6. came accross the trouble shooting part of this website that says I should check hardware, chose HDD mode and computer checked. It says it it finds any fault I should call tech support. After several hours, hard drive says pass.
7. Chose save settings and restart, but still it wont start.
8. Please help I dont know what to do now. I cannot afford to lose all files in there, I cannot afford to lose emails in there and I need it fast.

Hello,
at first you should use a Knoppicx Live Cd download it, google, and burn it to cd.
Then boot with it and make a copy from your file to an external disk.
It seems you had shut down your system while R&R was runnning.
A possible solution could be to run a vista dvd, get in repair console and try if it works from there.
Otherwise after saving your files, a full system restore is possible, by booting with pressed F11 button.
Regards
Andreas

My Lenovo IdeaPad N580 wont charge or turn on PLEASE HELP

I have been having the problem for about a month now. When i notised it wasn't chargeing i tried everything to fix it googling the problem until the battery finaly died. I sent it to Lenovo Repair depot and after 2 weeks it came back.
On the Action report it said they repaired the problem i had with No Power so they replaced the Mainboard, and top cover. It also said that my laptop passed all functional tests.
I turned on my laptop after reading the Repair Action Report and it had Low battery so i Plugged in the charger and it wasn't charging then after a few minutes it died and everytime i press the power button the battery LED flashes orange meaning it needs to be charged but it WONT CHARGE im stuck the Lenovo Repair Depot Failed to repair this problem and im am about to just salvage this laptop becuase nothing can fix this issue PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Please help!! Newbie here really need help. Numlock, divers, backup, recovery disk

Hi everyone
I finally found where to post
I really wish someone could or would help me
I have a lenovo g550 for about 4-5 years And I was happy with it
few days go I cleaned installed windows Ii got a friend to help infests he put it on the d drive then c drive And c drive gainsaid he formatted my d drive chlorinating on therein was a real unswayable I kind of sorted it out. And I learnt a lot bout the oem partitioning deleted that though. Can someone tell me If I can boot or recover my previous vista from there.?
If not its fine but then I would like to know is can I change the oem partition with the image or recovery (whatever you call it) of the new windows 7 or how to go about creating a recovery disk.
After installing the new windows my PC seems to be fine but I don't know If I kept all the drivers And whatever goes with it. What are all the drivers I need And where do I find If I have them or not. I am not really worried about my data as I want to start fresh.
Another thing I noticed is my number keypad stopped working all of a sudden. When I press the numlock button it beeps and the light does go on and off. When its on it doesn't give me numbers e.g... If I press 5 it actually highlights where the cursor is.
And my mouse/trackpad is not the same as it was before. When I had vista on the right of the trackpad I could use it to scroll up and down and the bottom of the trackpad allowed me to scroll left to right. This function is no longer there. I have to use the arrows to go up and down.
Somebody please help as I do need my laptop for work purposes.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

hi any drivers you should need you should be able to get through support drivers&downloads link at top of this sites page bud you could use partition magic to clear all partitions and create new multible one if you wish the rest wait till after you put drivers in and see if probs still exist bud
