Recovery will not complete w500p

I have recently purchased a used Iconia W500P tablet. I purchased the recovery media from the Acer store. THE RECOVERY WILL NOT COMPLETE and my husband is ready to break the tablet in half. It gets to 99% on updating system and just freezes.

I have. I did a hard shut down and let it go ahead and start installing like it had completed. It then goes through installing all devices and starts doing the 35 different installations. It make it to 27/35 in cleanup and locks up again. After another hard shutdown, it will finally start, but the touchscreen does not work. It worked before I did the restore. I just wanted to start with factory settings and get rid of the crap the previous owner had loaded on the tablet.

Recovery will not complete. Gets stuck on Configuring screen

L505D-ES5025 Lap top. The speakers and USB ports were not working. After trying to download drivers with no success, I decide to recover the system to factory default software. It will not complete. I left it from 4:30pm yesterday to this morning and It is still stuck on that screen. I forced a shutdown and opened windows safe mode with command prom and ran CHKDSK, and it said there were no problems with the disk. Can someone help me?

I have had this problem L505D-LS5007for many months and have sent the laptop to Toshiba Repair 3 times under warranty and it kept coming back as hardware failure and that they replaced the system board. Once the hard drive was replaced as well as the system board. The last time I sent it in, it kept running for several months. I believe that the problem starts when Microsoft does an update. I am guessing that the hardware is NOT supported by Microsoft Windows 7 out of the box software and Toshiba has used their special drivers software to configure some of the non standard Windows 7 hardware for this particular laptop version. Probably to slip Windows 7 into a machine that they had in stock and needed to sell. When a Microsoft update comes along, the hardware is reconfigured improperly for the L505D-LS5007 hardware configuration. I also think that this may cause a hardware failure as the configuration is wrong and causing something to overheat. As I try to restore, the high speed fan is always on and the exhause sire from the fan is hot. I am at a loss too how to fix this problem. Same problem, no USB, no speakers cannot complete restore. Hardware? Probably due to a software problem that caused the failure. I wonder if XP 64 bit would work? Anyone try that? Of course if the hardware has failed, another OS will not help. Too bad we just happened to buy a good laptop that was not meant for Windows 7 platform.

Put 1st Toshiba Recovery disc in and chose system recovery options. There is no operating System Listed so i click on load drivers with disc one everything i click on says "The specific loacation does not contain information about your hardware. So HOW do I load drivers? and get my OS system back. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Diane

Because the discs aren't working now, try holding '0' (zero) while booting to see if the recovery utility will load that way.
If that doesn't work, I'd contact customer support at (800) 457-7777.

My iPod 5th gen will not completely turn on it shows the apple symbol then shuts off I have restarted it and tried to plug it into my computer but cannot find it to restart it
Its been like this for awhile and I can not fix it

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs or so, then the machine shuts down and restarts.

My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs, then the machine shuts down and restarts. This sequence will repeat seemingly forever unless I shut it down manually.
I upgraded to Yosemite from Mountain Lion a couple months ago, skipping Maverick completely, and I've done any associated updates that Apple told me about. I don't recall which version of Yosemite I have, but I'm sure it is the "latest and greatest".
I've tried re-starting in Safe Mode / Safe Boot and that does the same thing as described above except without the endless restarts. Instead of restarting at some point, SafeBoot proceeds to the white screen and then it hangs until I restart it manually. (I've waited as long os 20-30 minutes with no response).
When I tried the option-command-p-r key combo I never get any chimes or other noises besides the original 1 time boot sound that you would expect to get when starting up a macbook pro.
I was using the mac quite normally (meaning I was doing work I normally do on it and there was no indication of anything wrong) immediately prior to this happening.
The machine is BootCamp(ed) with Windows 8.1 which I use from a VMWare virtual machine instead of natively so that I can have both OSes running at the same time. I also think this is unrelated to my problem. I have been using this setup for more than 2 years.
My upgrade to Yosemite was uneventful and I thought it went well and was very smooth. I don't want to lead attention away from Yosemite, but at this point my problem does not seem related to the upgrade.
Any help is appreciated.

Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
      the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
           because it is three times faster than wireless.

I PUSH TO UPDATE AND IT IS HUNG IN THE MIDDLE AND WILL NOT COMPLETE

On my IPAD 2 I started the UPDATE and is hung in the middle and will not complete. Bob Hopkins What did I do and I do not all the question you asked
<Edited By Host>

What is showing on your iPad's screen ?
If it's on the progress bar which hasn't moved for a while then try a soft-reset and see if that gets the update to complete : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should reappear and it will hopefully boot up properly.
If it doesn't then try recovery mode and restore to your backup : If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If it's showing something else ... ?

HT202731 What should I do next when using the apple hardware test and it will not complete. It always gets frozen when 56 seconds of testing has passed?

MY MacBook pro will not boot up correctly. When switched on a grey screen appears and a flashing question mark box.after researching I have been able to try to complete an apple hardware test by holding the D key when switched on. Unfotunately this text will not complete. Every time I try and perform this text it sticks after 56 seconds of testing and does nothing rlse. Resulting in my having to force shut down.
I know do not know what else I can do to try and solve my problem.
Any help would be grately appreciated.
Thanks.

I would install a new HDD, format it and install the OSX. Then I would connect the old HDD via USB and see if I can access the files that are on it.
If no success and if the data is important, look for recovery software on the Internet. Most have a trial that will tell you the possibilities for retrieving data but then you will have to pay for the software.
The last option is employing a professional data retrieval service. That will be expensive with no guarantee of results.
Ciao.

Welcome to the Apple community.
A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

HT3669 My Epson Perfection 1200 scanner functions as a flatbed scanner but when I try to scan transparencies the control panels change in Image Capture but the scanner bar will not complete the overview scan & cannot travel beyond the first 2/3 centimet

Epson Perfection 1200 scanner continues to function as a flatbed scanner but when I try to scan transparencies/film negs the control panels change in Image Capture but the scanner bar will not complete the overview scan & cannot travel beyond the first 2/3 centimeters. All the communications seem to recognise the scanner and the mode for the intended scan but the necessary overview scan is not completed, nothing comes up on the Image Capture scan window. If I unplug the film adaptor I can get a document scan. When I plug in the adaptor again the Image Capture details change which allows me to select the type of scan required but when the scanner attempts an overview scan it is unable to complete it.
I have had the scanner from new (12 Years) and have previously scanned slides and film with the adaptor but maybe this was before I upgraded my computer (imac 27").
Do I have to buy a new scanner? It seems so close to working correctly.
I have downloaded the Epson recommended driver (5.4) and have Epson Perfection 1200 6.6 Universal showing in the Applications List.
Any thoughts or observations would be much appreciated before I go out and spend money an new hardware.
Thanks

I have same issue - have you solved this yet?

My iTunes library will not completely sync to neither my iPad nor my iPhone -- both are completely updated with the latest software. What do I have to do?? When I try to do the "autofill" option when connected to iTunes it says "no songs can be copied"

My iTunes library will not completely sync to neither my iPad nor my iPhone -- both are completely updated with the latest software. What do I have to do?? When I try to do the "autofill" option when connected to iTunes it says "no songs can be copied"...I literally bought some of these songs yesterday on my iPhone and now I can't sync them to my iPad. What is this issue? Usually I would just have to plug either device into iTunes and everything would sync, now nothing new syncs.

On your iPad tap Settings > Store
Switch Books off then back on then reset your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

An app will not completely download from the App Store to my iPhone 5S. Neither can I terminate the download by trying to delete it. The app is useless to me and so I would like to remove the icon from my home screen. How can I do this?

I tried to download the app "Google Translate" from the App Store onto my iPhone 5s. However, the download will not complete. As well, when I try to delete the icon from my home screen, it will not go away. I am very frustrated as this has never happened before and I have gotten many paid and free apps from the App Store. I hope someone can solve my dilemma. Thank you kindly.

What have you tried to get the app to finish downloading e.g. have you tried logging out and back into your account on your phone, disconnecting and reconnecting to your network, soft-reset of your phone (press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, ignore the red slider, after which the Apple logo should appear and it should reboot) ?
You could also try downloading the update on your computer's iTunes and see if you can sync it over to your phone (or delete the app its Apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes and sync the new version - deleting the app will delete its contents).

My iPhone 4 will not complete a back up. Error - 5000 comes up

Error 5000 appears after "preaparing phone for back up" completes. "Continuing will result in the loss of all contents of this phone" is the message. Phone will not complete a synch and iTunes often goes into "Not responding". I have repaired iTunes by downloading the software from Apple's website. No improvement.
Can anybody offer a solution?

This is a bad situation. Your iPhone is in a state which cannot be backed up, and the Restore will return iPhone to factory specs erasing it. You need to Restore your iPhone to get it working again. If you were experiencing problems before, maybe your iPhone is damaged. If still faulty, and you have Warranty or AppleCare take iPhone to Apple for evaluation. If no coverage and still faulty it may be time for new phone.

Mac crash; recovery will not start

Yesterday my Mac suddenly crashed into a screen with blue (and white) lines. It wouldn't respond to anything, so I powered it down and tried to boot again. However, it will not boot. It will show the Apple logo, request my password and after a while (with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel) it just shows a blank screen (grey), while the CPU fans are spinning like crazy.Sometimes will it not even get this far and stop doing anything before requesting the password. The guest mode has the same problem.
I basically tried everything to fix it; the recovery option will also show the blank grey screen but nothing else (even after 30 minutes); the internet recovery downloads fine and then pulls the same stunt, so even the recovery will not work. I've tried save mode, which cannot start up (Filevault is activated) and seems to end mid-way through. Sometimes the safe mode crashes immediately after the boot starts with a kernel panic (/sbin/launchd failed, errno 2); after resetting the NVRAM it won't panic.
I've checked the hardware (T startup option, full check), which al seems to be OK. SMART status from the harddrive looks OK (checked with DiskWarrior). Starting in single user mode sometimes gets me through the password request screen and allows me to check the hard drive (fsck -fy). This seems to change permissions, however, after a reboot or exit command, the problem persists and starting up in single user mode and performing the fsck -fy command again seems to fix some issues. When I enter the exit command in safe mode, it'll start up fine, but when the graphic user interface starts, it'll give me the grey screen again (so a blank screen, while the CPU fans are at full power).
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to fix this? Since even the recovery will not start (and neither will the internet recovery), I've got no clue what to do to fix this issue...

Your comment about the "blue and white lines" has me wondering. You say you have a fairly recent MacBook Pro, correct? If that is the case, you probably have a model which has both discrete and integrated GPUs. It is possible that your discrete GPU has failed, and whenever the OS is trying to switch to it is when your system just "hangs" (because the GPU has failed). It all works properly as long as it is on the integrated GPU, but when something causes it to switch it hits the bad GPU and locks.
I would suggest that you make an appointment at your nearest Apple Store to have the specialists at the Genius Bar take a look at it for you. If you are still under the 1 year warranty (or extended Apple Care if you purchased it) then any needed hardware repairs would be free, unless it is due to accidental damage such as a spill in the keyboard, etc.
If you don't have access to an Authorized Apple Service Center, and you do have access to another Mac, you could try making an external boot drive on the other Mac, then install the app "gfxCardStatus" on that MacOS instance (when booted from the external drive). While still booted from the external drive, use the gfxCardStatus app to force the Mac to only use the integrated GPU then shutdown and boot your "dead" Mac from that drive. If it boots and runs, now, try to change the external drive to force to use only the discrete GPU then see how your system boots. If your system, will fully boot using one or the other, then it seems that your problem is probably related to one of your GPUs. It could be a hardware failure, or it could be a corrupted driver. If your system won't boot from either GPU, then my guess about it being a GPU issue is probably wrong.
