Hello Kaj_R.
If you change the volumes it is quite likely that the recovery partition will not function.  I suggest you create a set of Recovery Media before messing with the partitions.
This document can help you create the recovery media.

  • Recovery and creating new partitions

    Hello,
    I have recently purchased a Satellitte A500-02F PSAR3C-02F008 with Windows7 in Canada. I had some trouble with Adobe Photoshop, I tried to uninstall all Adobe application on the computer, and now I am not able to install not even Adobe Reader. Since I only had it for a short period of time, and did not install too much, I thought that a new, clean installation would allow me to try to install Photoshop again.
    Now, I have a few questions:
    1. What should I use to reinstall Windows 7 clean: HDD recovery partition, or the DVD-s created after the initial installation?
    2. Where could I find some step-by-step instructions on how to do the installation?
    3. I would like to make a few newer partitions on the HDD, and install Windows XP on one, and Linux Ubuntu on another one. Has anyone some idea how to do that? Should I try to partition the HDD using some software under the present Windows7 (which works ok, if it wasn't for Adobe)? Or should I do the partition with Ubuntu or XP installation CD-s and install each OS on the partitions thus created?
    Thanks!
    LiviuM

    Either.  The results would be exactly the same.
    In your user's guide.  That can be found on the laptop in Adobe Acrobat Format and can be downloaded from the Product Support Link at the top of this page.  SInce you don't have acrobat on your laptop now you'll need to use a different system to view it.

  • Problem in Creating New partition in Pavilion dm4 1217TX

    I have a hp Pavilion dm4 1217TX model laptop. I want to partition the hard disk (640GB) to separate the OS to the data. I think this is a very basic safety feature that will save my data in case of Windows failure (which is a very common problem). I have already split the C Drive and the new condition of my hard drive is
    System           199 MB       Primary
    C                        70 GB       Primary
    Unallocated   494 GB       Logical
    Recovery           32 GB       Primary
    HP Tools        103  MB      Primary
    Now I can't create partition in the Unallocated space because of 4 Primary Partition it already has. Now what can I do ? I can't understand that why it comes with four Primary Partition and without any Extended partition.

    Hi, there, I have the same problem with you, because of the OEM of the laptop, they have partitioned our hard drive in advanced, however this partition is not logical. As we know, when we install Windows7, the system partition and system reserved partition are set as primary partition without doubt, but how could they make the HP tools and other partition as primary partitino too. I'm very unhappy with this. I don't know WHAT are they thinking about. Every one who has a bit comptuer knowloage knows the rules of createing new partitions in Windows.  In my situation, I could only copy the data on recovery to C drive, then delete it. and recreate logical partition, then copy it back. Hope this could also help you.

  • I have a new email address. Changed this on my itunes account. On iPhone deleted old icloud account and created new with new email. I have set find my phone to on. When I download music it no longer goes to icloud an does not show up on my iphone.

    I have a new email address. Changed this on my itunes account. On iPhone deleted old icloud account and created new with new email. I have set find my phone to on. When I download music from itunes it no longer goes to icloud an does not show up on my iphone.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Copying home DVD videos, editing, and creating new DVDs

    Here is the situation:
    I have the 17" and this is my first Mac to own. I am computer literate with most my experience on Windows and Linux.
    That being said, I am trying to edit home videos; but they are already on DVDs. I got a LiteOn DVD/VCR combo recorder for my entertainment center. I have a camcorder that uses Hi-8 media and it is only able to use S-video/composite outputs (no USB or Firewire). I am using the LiteOn recorder to archive all my videos to DVDs because it has composite inputs. The LiteON has hardly any editing capability. So I want to take the "simple" DVDs I made, copy them to my HD, edit them (to cut out junk, create better menus, and give it as nice touch), and create new DVDs to distribute to my family and to get rid of old tapes.
    So in short, the process I want to do on the Mac is:
    1. Copy my family home DVDs
    2. Edit the video.
    3. Create more "creative" DVDs for my family.
    I have been looking around the website and reading posts and I don't see how to do this. I did try to create an image on disk utility, but it failed for whatever reason (maybe I am missing a step). How can I accomplish the three steps above?
    Please help.
    Thank you, Michael

    If these are true, standard video DVDs that the drive creates, there are a number of utilities that can extract and convert the videos for use in editing applications. A couple of utilities that people have reported success with are DVDxDV, Cinematize, and MPEG Streamclip (MPEG Streamclip is freeware but requires that you have Apple's QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component), and there are no doubt others.
    Once extracted, you can use iMovie to edit the clips and iDVD to burn them to a new DVD. Then you can use Disk Image or a third-party application such as Roxio's Popcorn to make additional copies.
    Hope this helps.

  • What is the diffrence between extends and creating new object?

    HI ALL,
    what is the diffrence between extends and creating new object?
    meaning
    class base{
    class derived extends base{
    class base{
    class derived {
    derived(){
    base var = new base();
    can u people tell me diffence from the above examples.
    THANKS.
    ANANDA

    When you create a new object you have to supply the class to which that
    object belongs. A class can extend from another class. If it does so
    explicitly you can define the 'parent' class from which the class extends.
    If you don't explicitly mention anything, the class will implicitly extend
    from the absolute base class named 'Object'.
    Your example is a bit convoluted: when you create a Derived object,
    its constructor creates another object, i.e. an object from the class from
    which the Derived class extends.
    Extending from a class and creating an object don't have much in common.
    kind regards,
    Jos

  • Transfer assets collectively to new class and create new assets like ABUMN

    We need to change the account determination for a few Asset Classes that already have assets with postings.  As a result we must create new asset classes and assign a new account determination.
    Is there a program that would allow transfer assets collectively to a new asset class and create new assets automatically similar to ABUMN?  T-code ABUMN allows you to transfer multiple assets but you must create the new assets first.  ABUMN will transfer and create new asset but only does one asset at a time. 
    There are hundreds of assets with postings to be transferred from the old asset classes to the corresponding new asset classes.
    Appreciate whatever input you can provide.
    Tara

    download the asset master data(original) and create new asstes using lsmw or any third party tool also.

  • Reconfigure sales BOM deletes line item and creates new line item

    We are having issue with Sales BOM. Once sales BOM is reconfigure, line item is automatically deleted and creates new line item. These changes are not captured by reporting tool. Is it standard SAP behavior? if its not standard behavior, how to fix this issue?

    Hi,
    If i am not wrong, i assume you are using site instead of plant.   If it is plant , then "yes", we can have a order with same material being line item 10 and 20 with different plants.  Reg delivery, if the plants are configured to a same shipping point then you will have one delievery.  if the plants are configured for a different shipping point , then delivery will be split up.
    Reward if it helps,
    Thanks & regards,

  • How can I make the popup with empty fileds and create new record?

    I would like to use a popup to create new record.
    I created a af:popup by drag and drop a VO from data control to jsff. then, I created a button and place a af:showPopupBehavior. I was able to popup window by click the button.
    however, the window filled with the information from the 1st record. and when I select a record in table and click popup, the popup is filled with that record.
    How can I make the popup with empty fileds and create new record by saving the popup?
    Thanks

    You can have edit and new buttons, in the PopupFetchEvent identify button source (using popupFetchEvent.getLaunchSourceClientId()) if new button clicked clear the binding using below code.
    If you want to see empty fields, in the popup PopupFetchEvent clear the input component bindings.
    resetBindingValue("#{bindings.<componentid>.inputValue}", null);
        public static void resetBindingValue(String expression, Object newValue) {
            FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
            Application app = ctx.getApplication();
            ExpressionFactory elFactory = app.getExpressionFactory();
            ELContext elContext = ctx.getELContext();
            ValueExpression valueExp = elFactory.createValueExpression(elContext,expression,Object.class);
            Class bindClass = valueExp.getType(elContext);
            valueExp.setValue(elContext,newValue);
        }

  • Dynamic Action-Delimiting a record and creating new record

    Hi ,
    My requirement is in dynamic Action I need to delimit all records in a Subtype of an Infotype and create New record for these records with BEGDA as ENDDA + 1 of the delimited records.
    Iam able to delimit all records in the Subtype but , Iam not able to create new records.
    My code for delimiting is as given below, in T588Z,
    9901     2          06     801     P     P9901-SUBTY='2'
    9901     2          06     802     P     PSYST-IOPER='MOD'

    9901     2          06     804     P     P9901-PREAS='91'
    9901     2          06     805     F     DELIMIT_DTE(ZHSRAS_T588Z_9901)
    9901     2          06     806     W     P9901-ENDDA=RP50D-ZZDATE3

    9901     3          06     810     W     P9901-ENDDA=RP50D-ZZDATE3
    The above code is working fine.
    My code for creating new record is as given below, even though the control is oing to the subroutine, INS statement is not working, and hence new record is not getting created.
    9901     3          06     811     P     SY-UCOMM='UPD'
    9901     3          06     812     P     PSAVE-ENDDA<>P9901-ENDDA

    9901     3          06     817     W     P9901-ENDDA='99991231'
    Kindly help me on this.

    Hi shahana,
    1. I have not worked on this dynamic action.
    2. But instead of doing in 2 steps,
       it is usually done in 1 step only, manually.
    3. If we CREATE record from some date,
       then the OLD will AUTOMATICALLY get Delimited.
    (We don't have to do anything specially for delimiting
      the old record)
    regards,
    amit m.
