Recovery not working and couldn't able to make recovery partition active (HP DV6 2124el)
Product Name and Operating system: DV6 21124el (windows 7 ultimate 32bit)
Hi,
I have this laptop for the last 3 years and never used the recovery option as I didn't need to, the recovery partition is there never been formated, now my windows is too slow and wanted to restore it to factory install settings but when i press the F11 button in the start to boot in to recover mode it just take me to windows boot screen without giving an error, I did some research and found out that i have to make the recovery partition as active partition but the problem is that i couldn't do it as there is no such option to make the partition active in WINDOWS DISK MANEGEMENT and couldn't see the recovery partition in DISK PART (in windows).
I have attached the images.
thanks in advance hoping i will get a reply here.
I see from your screenshot that you have added a partition- and in the process the hard drive was converted from Basic to Dynamic. This always breaks Recovery function..
You will have to delete the extra partition AND convert the hdd back to Basic. Use "Option 1" here:

HP Pavilion x2 10inch windows crashed (recovery not work and make windows crashed)
I'm just used this HP Pavilion x2 10 inch tablet only 4 DAYS then came out this problem. Now its windows crashed even i've done the recovery. I can't reinstall windows 8.1 pro on it due to can't boot from usb drive even though i've change the UEFI setting and disable the secure boot. This tablet really waste my time and money. Totally disappointed on this product.
Hey @XavierZK ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're experiencing issues with your Pavilion x2 notebook.
If your tablet does not start and you cannot run a recovery service is needed. The age of the product should be factored into the type of warranty service you are offered. Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the following link to get the support number for your region: Phone Assist Worldwide.

Hi, I put my Ipod into the stereo, some how the power of the stereo burned out & make my ipod not work anymore. If I plug my ipod into computer its not on and the battery feel very hot, so if I send it out to fix, how much do you think its cost? And how do I check online to see what generation I was bought? I bought it online with Apple. Thanks.
Tran Thai.Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

After upgrading to OS 10.9.1 Aperature 3.2.3 does not work and I have not been able to download upgrade of Aperature?
Is Aperture installed in the "Application"s folder and simply named Aperture? If not, move it back to "Applications". Did you buy Aperture from the App Store or as a boxed Retail version?
Relaunch the App Store and sign in with your Apple ID (in the Store menu). Reload the "Purchased" page of the App Store. Do see Aperture on the Purchased tab or perhaps the "Accept" portion of the "Purchased" page? If in the "Accept" portion, accept it to your AppleID and install it. Else look again at the Update page.
For some forum members the update did only appear until after setting the primary system language to English and rebooting the Mac. This bug is supposed to have been fixed with the update to 10.9.1, but try it, if all else should fail. -

For some reason my passwrod on my iPhone is not working and now I am locked out. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to rest the passcode during this process:
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software. -
My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?
- After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod? If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
- If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:

Eagerly waiting for your response on this issue.
Best Regards,You need to upgrade your copy of MS Office. You're using a version that is 8 years old (at least). You can buy Office 2011, which will work. You could also get a copy of Pages from the App Store, which is cheaper and will open Word files (though not perfectly). Or you could get a free Office clone, like OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

My daughter is away at camp and ipod is not working and says it needs to be connected to itunes. She does not have her laptop with her. Can she sync to her itunes on someone else's mac?
Yes, when she plugs it in to another person's mac, tell it transfer purchases, then authorize the computer by going to store, and click authroize computer. If the iPod is in recovery mode
Then I don't think she can have her music apps etc. on there after she plugs it into the computer. If it just needs a charge
When iTunes opens on the computer, quit it, and do not let the iPod sync with the computer, just answer no or ignore to any questions asking if you want to sync. -
Hp Pavilion Dv 9000 no audio, quick lunch soft touch not working and no light indicators
Good Evening i have problems with my laptop since it was sent to me without a hard disk drive so i have to buy a new one to make it work, first here are some useful information regarding my laptop.
Hp pavilion dv 9000
OS: Windows Vista Home premium
HDD1: 250Gb
Ram: 1030mb
so when i got the hard disk drive, i installed windows vista as its operating system and so far it worked well, and after that i downloaded drivers from HP's website, with correct laptop model and os, i searched for the most compatible drivers that will make my laptop function 100%
i installed
NVIDIA Chipset driver
Hp Quick lunch buttons
Audio Driver
so after the installation and reboot of my laptop, it seems that only NVIDIA chipset driver worked, the quick lunch buttons are still not working, and also i cannot hear anything comming out of my speaker when i try to play some music, but i hear some loud beeps so it means it is 100% functioning and also i noticed the 3 indicators at the bottom lefot of my laptop for (Power,Charging,Reading) lights are not lighting up.
i tried to uninstall it and install it again just like other blogs says but it doesnt work. . .
i really want to make my laptop fully functional . .
can you help me pleaseHello @iamDestiny ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you've installed a new HDD in your notebook and are unable to use the keyboard shortcuts and have no sound from programs on the computer.
It would help to know if you're using a 32 or 64 bit version of Vista. To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
Keep in mind beeps typically come from the onboard BIOS speaker, not the actual speakers. Can you tell me what you do to hear the beeping so we can tell if this is a system beep or a Windows sound? Also, can you tell me if headphones work?
Regarding drivers: I would suggest installing the HP Support Assistant (HPSA) to search for drivers for you. You can download this here: HP Support Assistant. You can see how to use it here: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 7, Windows Vista).
When you installed Vista did you use the HP recovery CD's or your own copy of Windows?
Let me know the updated info or if the HPSA works.

Since updating my iPad several weeks ago I can no longer open iTunes or view or read books on my bookshelf. I took my iPad to Apple at The Trafford Centre where I was advised to restore my pad. This I did using our imac and hopefully saved my software.. The restore did not work and now my pad will still not open iTunes and I no longer have my apps. What can I do to get my purchased books etc. back and open iTunes again?
Most of your purchases content can be downloaded again via the Purchased tabs in each of the store. I realize that this will be a problem for the iTunes Store on the iPad, but that has nothing to do with apps, since apps are in the App Store.
If you backed up synced with iTunes before you restored the iPad, your content should be in iTunes on your Mac and you should be able to sync it back again. -
I have IMac 10.7.5 Lion I use I forgot the password and I did a few fixes from web sites, which did not work and now I can not get the computer to reboot the gray screen comes on with the apple and if a shift+c, I get a load bar and it goes half way and stops, I can get into the black screen area with the hard drive info
I did the following: mount -uw / rm/var/db/.AppleSetupDone shutdown/uses/us reboot Ok I know I should not have, but now I need help to reboot and hopefully not lose everything on the desk top, Linda MarkleYou did the wrong things. In the future it's a good idea to remember not to do something when you don't know what you are doing and what happens when you do it.
