Problems after Factory Reset (Os X 10.8.5) (Quicktime)

I've been having problems with my wi-fi and problems with my Macbook Pro shutting off and not wanting to power on over the past few weeks.  So, today I did a factory fresh install of my OS.  I noticed a problem with Quicktime videos stuttering when I maximize or minimize the video.  It only does it during that task.  I can fast forward it or rewind it without problems.  My wi-fi seems to be back to normal, but my Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter is quite slow.  Not sure why..  Other than that, everything seems to be fine.  Starts up and shuts down good, and doesn't shut off randomly.  The Quicktime issue is not a huge one, but very annoying and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this.  I am a DJ and I like to preview all of the videos I get. 
My laptop is
-2.3 quad i7
-8 gb ram
-1 gb gt 650m

Can't remember if the Display menu bar icon was removed in Mountain Lion like it is in Mavericks, which makes it harder to switch between Extended Desktop and Mirroring.
First try going to Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Display tab and see if checking "Show displays in the menu bar" is still available..?
If it is, then you should still be able to select between Extended Desktop (Mirroring Off) and Mirroring On from the menu bar or by opening the Display Preference from there.
If it is not, try > Mac App Store - Display Menu which will give you the Mirror Displays option on your menu bar.

  • Time capsule setting up problem after factory reset

    What's the next step after factory reset to set up my time capsule again???
    i did factory reset for 4-5 times and i cant use my time capsule to create a network, join an existing network or anything else.
    i also tried normal reset but still nothing can be done.
    There is always a message at the end " an unexpected error occured. Try again"

    Plug the TC into the computer by ethernet..
    Make sure the computer has no other network running and nothing else is plugged into the TC.. just TC Lan port to the computer ethernet.
    Now press reset and open airport utility.
    Generally you will have no issue once it is isolated. Do the setup and then you can disconnect and put it back in the network.
    If it doesn't work, is the LED on the TC flashing amber or what??
    Is the ethernet port connectivity LED on?

    I had the windows 8.1 update shown on my app store but due to some problems i factory reset the laptop. when i opened it after the restore i was unable to find the update on my store. Rather it shows 96 apps to be updated

    Hi,
    If you want to install Windows 8.1 Update 1, there are two requirements:
    •Windows 8.1 is a prerequisite (vs Windows 8 RTM)
    •KB2919442 is a pre-requisite update - released in March 2014 – you'll need this before 2919355 will be recognized

  • No audio, after factory reset,flash install,SoundMax & HDA audio drivers won't install

    My problems are:
    No sound with Youtube or the laptop itself
    SoundMax won't install either though I downloaded HDA audio drivers it requested.
    Flash download stuffed up my SoundMax after factory reset.
    I decided to do a factory reset after Youtube starting slowing down. After reset it (Youtube) kind of worked better
    then the audio disappeared from the laptop. The drivers, SoundMax Audio was gone (greyed out).
    I downloaded the Audio driver from Lenovo website for my X31 but SoundMax install wouldn't install because it kept saying HDA Audio drivers weren't installed.
    I downloaded it from here:
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_AU/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&DocID=HT072373
    So I went to HP site to download HDA audio drivers, then the SoundMax Audio reappeared and I had sound on my computer.
    HDA Audio drivers link at HP website (since Lenovo doesn't have it):
    http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/?cc=US&lang=en&swItem...
    When I downloaded latest Adobe Flash, the SoundMax Audio disappeared again. So at the moment I have Youtube video without sound (and Firefox keeps telling me to download Flash?)
    No sound on IE as well.
    Would appreciate your help. Thank you very much.
    I'm using:
    ThinkPad X31 (2673-QU6)
    Based on 2673-N7G
    Win XP Pro Service 3 with recent updates
    Firefox (latest) with add-ons

  • Data recovery after factory reset

    I have seen people write that data recovery was possible after factory reset below the jelly bean OS versions on android but iphone is impossible.
    So I wonder what is security technology for data protection on iphone.
    Let me know security technology. (data encryption, data fromat algorithm, whatever about data protection)

    Follou-up..... reading other questions/answers on this forum seem to indicate I'll have to "cherry pick" specific saved data items from the desktop "Shortcut to System Recovery Files" --- a long process.   Is there a quicker way???

  • Cisco 7941G phones will not boot up after factory reset.

    Cisco 7941G phones will not boot up after factory reset.
    The following happens.
    1. Speaker light lit (Green)
    2. Phone displays a firmware upgrade page (see attachment) for a few minutes. (Doesn't seems to be upgrading, but it "saids" upgrading)
    3. Saw Cisco logo with a Java Powered page.
    4. The whole thing loops again and again...
    I think the reason why the phone isn't booting up is because the phone needs to know where to find the configuration/firmware files from a tftp server. I do have a TFTP server, but normally I need to go in settings to change the alternative tftp server, but the thing is that now I can't even press the settings button...
    Please help.

    How many phones were reset and upgrading at one time? What is the setting of the TFTP Maximum Serving Count (Advanced TFTP Service Parm) on each of the TFTP servers?
    Sounds like too many devices trying to use TFTP at once.

  • Recovering data after factory reset (security issue)

    Hello there,
    Recently a friend of mine asked me how to erase all data on an iPhone ? I pointed to him to "factory reset".
    Now, I see a bunch of websites that show how to recover data after factory reset using their software, not sure if they work as advertised or not.
    What I would like to know is if the user wants the data to be erased and non-recoverable, is this the best option or if there is any other option available in iPhone that can make the data un-recoverable. We want to make sure the data is un-recoverable after factory reset.
    thanks
    Ashish Shah

    unfortunately this doesn't answer my question.
    I do know the option to "erase all content and settings" in iPhone.
    What I want to know is to make sure once done, no one can recover that data back. Since this phone will be sold off to some stranger, we don't want them to have access to the data.
    Here are a few websites from my just preliminary search results that show how to recover data.
    just google "extracting data after factory reset iPhone" and you will see a bunch of websites offering their products to recover. So I want to check if this is so simple, how can we really make sure the data is wiped off clean.

  • Problems with a new IP phone 7906 after factory reset

    Hi Guys
    I am currently having problems with my new IP phone 7906 after doing factory reset and here is a video of it:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvCLtwIAwVw
    I used this command I found on the net:
    Hold down
    while plugging in the phone and keep holding it until the message waiting indicator (red light) starts blinking.  Then
    release # and type 123456789*0# in sequence.
    I was trying to switch my phone to sip and it also dont want to take tftp setup either.

    Tim,
    Found this on the net
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/ts/fn/620/fn62949.html
    Might be woth giving it a go
    6.Pull power on the phone (even if power is PoE).
    7.Hold down the # key on the phone.
    8.Continue holding down the # key and re-apply power.
    9.While still holding the # key wait for the Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) light on the handset to start flashing.
    10.Once the MWI light is flashing, release the # key and enter the following sequence exactly on the keypad:
    3491672850*#
    Once this sequence has been entered on the IP Phone, if all the network criteria above have been met, it should begin its recovery process. This process can take up to 15 minutes to finish. The phone may appear to be doing nothing during this time. However, if the phone does not recover after 20 minutes then it is possible that the recovery is stuck. In this case, re-examine your network and verify that steps 1-4 are in place, then re-issue the factory reset sequence.
    * Note: The factory reset sequence is a way for a phone to clear flash and still upload to a valid firmware image. This is facilitated by the termxx.default.loads file, but requires that the image files listed in the termxx.default.loads file are available in TFTP for the phone to download. Open the termxx.default.loads file in any text editor. This loads file is essentially just a packing list showing all the OS and application files the phone needs to function. The files include a cnu, cvm, dsp, app and jar files. Please make sure that these files as listed in the termxx.default.loads file are in TFTP. ("xx" will be either "06" for the CP-7906G model, or "11" for the CP-7911G model.)
    Additional Diagnostic Steps:
    - Try a hard-coded IP address as a test to see if this resolves the upgrade failures. If it does, and the number of failing IP Phones is relatively few, this procedure may be the most expedient. After the IP Phone upgrades successfully, reconfigure the IP Phone to use DHCP.
    - Try putting the phone on a hub or a different switch and see if this helps change the startup timing enough so that the upgrade completes successfully.
    Regards
    Alex

  • Blank Screen after factory reset 7911 phone

    Hello guys,
    I had a weird issue on an 7911 ip phone. It was connected to my network and on the display of the phone was saying "ethernet disconnected".
    What i did was a soft and a hard reset using 123456789*0# and then 3497672850*# following the guidelines of a conversation in the forum
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2166581
    After the factory reset the device has a blank screen (I left it for more than an hour connected on the network bearing in mind that some processes might be loading in the background and the firmware will load at some point..that didn't happen) and it is unable to receive an ip address ("show ip dhcp bindings", shows nothing related to the mac address of that device).
    To eliminate the possibility that the problem might be on the network card of the phone, i've factory reset a working phone using the above described procedure.
    I had the same problem with that phone too.
    Are there are any log commands that i can use to further investigate my issue?  (I can't see any logs using "terminal monitor"command)
    I am using call manager express 4.3.0 on a cisco 2800 router.

    Dragan,
    I tried what you suggested with no luck.
    What i noted is that, when i plug the power adapter on the phone and connect the ethernet cable on the switch port of the phone (the other end goes to a d-link small switch) the light on the small d-link switch doesn't come up. However if i plug the ethernet cable on the pc port of the phone the light goes green. I checked it with two phones that i've factory reset and it is the same problem.
    What i understood from this, is that the pc is unable to retrieve an ip from the dhcp server and the necessary option 150 to locate the tftp server and retrieve the necessary firmware.
    Gordon, due to the above mentioned problem i can't proceed with wireshark since i don't have network connectivity between the phone and my workstation.
    Guys, do you have any alternatives that i can give a try?
    Thanks a banch!

  • After Factory Reset - the dreaded 3F0 message "please install an operating system".

    I have seen numerous threads on the 3F0 message relating to missing HDD/OSes but none seem to match mine.
    I have an (albeit old) HP Envy 13-1050EA,  I decided to completely refresh it and go back to factory reset state.
    The reset completes succesfully, the machine then starts it's setting up the OS (Windows 7 HP).  It reboots a couple of times as expected then suddenly throws the 3F0 message Just after its finished installing drivers.
    I have performed the usual HDD tests - the disk is there, all present and correct.  In fact I have tried it with various HDD and get the same results:
    I can install an OS from OEM (windows 7 and windows 8) without a problem, but ONLY with the recovery disks do I get the 3F0.  But I would like a factory reset with the original Image that I paid for originally - not just the OS (The Linux front etc)
    How do I get the the machine to recognise it has been installing the OS for the past 20 minutes, is HP's recovery faulty in some way? 
    I have two of these machines - identical spec - if I cloned the drive of the working model is it easy enough to change the Windows 7 License Key - are there any other keys that I'd need to be aware of?
    Any help would be gratefully accepted.

    Welcome Blue.
    You can clone the drive and change the product key.
    You must make sure that they both have the same version of Windows COA's.
    After you have the cloned drive booted go to START then COMPUTER then SYSTEM PROPERTIES.
    At the bottom of SYSTEM PROPERTIES you will see CHANGE PRODUCT KEY.
    Click on it and put the product key in that is on the bottom of that laptop.

  • Problem with factory resetting Airport Express

    I am trying to do a hard factory reset my airport express. I want to reset it to the factory default so that I can change the settings so that it connects to my comcast wirless modem. I followed the instructions on the apple support site. I held the reset button will the device was unplugged and then plugged it in while still holding the reset button. I held it until the green light flashed four times. But the stupid thing will not reset at all. Just the same blinking orange light. No green light. And of course, non identifiable on airport admin utility. This is really frustrating. Anyone know how to solve this problem.
    Thanks

    I have the exact problem described by AKAPLG. I've tried EVERYTHING with no good result.
    - My network does NOT show up in AirPort Utility (and even the old Airport Admin Utility)
    - Even after hard reset I can still see the old name of my network but am still unable to join it.
    - I've tried connecting directly with Ethernet to my MacBook Pro, but it is unclear what I'm supposed to do next, the manual doesn't mention this at all. When it's connected I do not see my AX in the AirPort Utility menu when I rescan.
    - The "Factory Reset" described by the booklet that came with the 802.11n device is inconsistent with what I see when I try it. I get a single green blink followed by a long solid yellow (sorry Amber) followed by blinking amber. I never see 4 green blinks, as described.
    This is the worst Apple experience I've ever had. Period. Any more advice please before I take this POS back to the store and trade it for a punch in the ribs or a hot stick shoved in my eye?
