Rescue Mode/Recovery Mode

Hello,
I have just read the "How do I access Rescue Mode/Recovery Mode on my player?" thread and was wondering what recovering the player actaully does.
Will this help with refreshing the tracks or does it remove them?
Thanks,
Rob

It depends on which device you have.
On the Zen/NX/Xtra, there is a little pinhole on the left edge of the device, well below the volume control. Power up the device, hold down the Play button and press a paper clip or pin inside the hole for several seconds.
You have 3 options in Recovery Mode:
. Disk Cleanup is a Disk Check. I've never had any errors come up during the Cleanup so I could not tell you what happens if it finds something bad.
2. Reload OS deletes the OS on the player. Make sure you have the correct firmware downloaded from Creative before you take this step, you will need to run the file when prompted from your system while the player is connected. Firmware that uses the new PlaysForSure will not recognize the old firmware or drivers for the player.
3. Format All deletes everything off of the dri've except the OS.
Hope this is of some help.
Cheers,
ShinjiT

orshikhfromsc,
boot from the Mac OS X Install DVD that originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro (by holding down the C key as it starts up). When the desktop appears, select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu and erase your internal disk. After it’s been erased, reformat it. After it’s been reformatted, exit Disk Utility and reïnstall the version of Mac OS X from that DVD onto your internal disk. After that version of Mac OS X has been reïnstalled, boot from your internal disk and run Software Update to get it up-to-date within that version; that should allow you to redownload and reïnstall Mavericks, if desired. If Mavericks is reïnstalled, run Software Update again to get it up to date.
If you no longer have the two grey installation DVDs, you can purchase a replacement set from either Apple or iFixit.

Are you following these instructions?
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
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 shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

Anyone know how to save messages/photos once Ipod is in locked 'connect to iTunes mode'/recovery mode?

Is there anyway to get back to normal mode after the image of the 'USB connect to iTunes' appears? I have many texts that I need to save, and I'm afraid the only way to exit this mode is to restore my iPod. I hope this could some how be avoided, whereas I could avoid restoring my ipod so that I could keep all my messages. Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this issue? Is there a way to save my data on my ipod, or exit this locked screen image while keeping my data? Please, anything helps!

See if one of these programs will kick the iPod out of recovery mode

PLEASE HELP: Does Not Boot in Rescue and Recovery Mode!

My X60s started to kind of freak out. I don't have a virus or anything, it's just being weird. I created a backup when it was working perfectly but I can't restore to the backup. Whenever I try doing it through windows, It always warns me not to restart my computer or it won't work. Then when I go through the setup to restore it and click restore, it pauses for about five seconds and then restarts my laptop automatically. But when I click the blue button on bootup, it brings me straight to the BIOS and gives me NO option to restore my laptop. PLEASE HELP! I've spent hours trying to get it to work and nothing is helping.

Ok, I think it has something to do with either my registry or vrlogon.dll I restored my registry to it's original state and that didn't fix anything so I think it has to do with vrlogon.dll I was having problems with the fingerprint reader and I heard it might have to do with the vrlogon.dll I installed a program that is supposed to restore this file, but it didn't fix anything. Upon closer inspection, I found that it deletes any third party software that may be affecting windos files. I think by using this I accidently overrode any Lenovo software that was in .dll's or other files. Is there anywhere I can download these files from Lenovo? I've already tried reinstalling the programs individually, but it doesn't do anything.

Problem with start up - won't boot. Tried safe mode, recovery mode etc.

Have also Tried Single user which just shows "error loading kernelcache" and before this reads "loading kernel cache file '\com.apple.recovery.boot\kernelcache'... And then read error ok? goes to grey screen with apple logo and no entry symbol? Any advice?
Tried all the online resources and have fond little help. Have not downloaded or Changed any settings...
Happy 2014!

iCloud does not back up a Mac. "MacKeeper" is a scam. Apparently you have no backups at all, which means that you're in immediate danger of losing your data, if it hasn't already happened.
If you want to preserve the data on the startup drive, and it's not already backed up, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is not fully functional. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot from the Recovery partition or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
2. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

IPOD classic stuck on disk mode/recovery mode

Hello
I got a new Ipod classic for Christmas and when I hooked it up to Itunes it started adding some songs then froze as I had this problem with my old Ipod I restored it and was ready to begin again, then it started saying it was corrupted and after searching ways to fix this problem online I tried for a while to restore as prompted and fix it but then it went onto disk mode and now it's locked on that mode and I can't get it out of that at all. I put my old Ipod on this morning to my Itunes and it worked fine and synced as normal so now I know it's the Ipod. I've no idea how to fix this problem myself or why it started, I'm normally able to fix most of my technology stuff myself and all morning this has been stressing me out. I'm not sure where to send it for repair or how much it will cost at all, appreciate any help at all.

I have the same problem. Have you figured out how to fix it? I'm going to my Apple store this afternoon to see if they can fix it. Thanks.

Hi eli238,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below may be able to help you with this.
Click on the link to see more details and screenshots.
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Use recovery mode
Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
I hope this information helps ....
Happy Holidays!

Will the 3GS go out of recovery mode once the battery is completely drained?

For totally unknown reasons my iPhone 3GS went into recovery mode (Recovery mode, new BR) three weeks ago. Since then I have really tried everything, every suggestion, every trick, every piece of software. Nothing worked. I keep getting an error message ("The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error error occured (-1). ) Question: will the 3GS go out of recov mode once the battery is completely drained? If so, is there a specific method to push the very last drop of juice out of the battery of an iPhone in recovery mode?

I do understand what you say about the terms of use.
What I do not understand is, that this jailbreak took place some two years ago and ever since I restored the orignal 4.3 iOS I upgrade to both 5.0 and 5.2 without any problems. The afternoon that my 3GS went into recoverery mode I noticed a malfunctioning app. I believe I closed the app - at least I was under that impression - but then I discovered about half an hour later when I wanrted to make a phone call that that was no longer possible. By the way, I am not an engineer. What is the baseband actually? I mean, I read stuff in various posts on the internet about specific versions (numbers) of the iPhone and iPad baseband. But what is it?

Rescue and Recovery error

I have a Lenovo 3000 N200 system laptop, type 0769 and Model: BWG which has developed a problem. Initially the laptop could not start and Windows Vista failed to load. I was forced to initiate the Rescue and Recovery mode and tried to restore the system, but now once the laptop has gone through the system restore it freezes. I have had to disconnect and then replace the battery to force it to restart but it keeps going to the Rescue and Recovery window; and nothing happens.
Please could someone help me out on how I can solved this problem; or where I can request for system restore CD

Hi
Remove the harddisk and connected to another computer as an storage with external USB connection. When system find the new hardware, go to MY computer, Rigth click on driver (probably will be D:/ ) then click on properties. Click Tools, see error check and scan for errors, Run for it. Then re connected the harddisk on Lenovo. If this is solves the problem you are lucky.
If it is not. You need recovery disk sets.
You need to do same process one more time but this time, when you click on driver with rigth click, You will need to FORMAT the hardisk. You need to delete all data to RUN new program for LENOVO. I know it hurts, but I try many options, End of it, That was the process I am running again my computer now. Goodluck.
