Resetting hp presario cq50 104ca back to factory setting again however.

Hi to all
As a matter of fact, in the past, I could reset my hp presario cq50 104ca back to factory setting, just by holding down Alt and control by repeating consotently f11. By this process appeared recovery manager and through it, I could reset it back to factory though. But now since few weeks, I have tried from f1 to f12 in the same way as I used to do by holding down Alt and Control and pushing f11. It did not work any more therefore assume that the recovery partition by some so called hacker just for the seek of bothering has removed my recovery partition however.
Your assistance needed regarding this issue.
Thank you
Munir

What happens if you simply hold down the F11 key immediately after powering on the laptop?
Have you tried starting Recovery Manager from Start, All Programs list?

Hi to all
Assume that the recovery partition from my hp cq50 104ca has been removed because in the past many times, I could reset back to factory setting, just by holding down alt and control and f11 by starting point. But now since few weeks can not do it. If you are able to assist me with that issue however.
Thank you in advance

Hi Munir,
If you have created your set of Recovery Discs, you can use these to reinstall the operating system - this procedure will also re-create the Recovery Partition on the Hard Drive.
If you don't have these discs, you can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below.

If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

I had to take my hp back to factory setting and reinstall itunes, when I tried to use Itunes match it said i had to Deauthorize all my computers. I am using the same computer and desperately need access to my music.

When you reset to factory settings, the computer is de-authorised.
In iTunes menu Store > View Account > sign in > App Store > Deauthorise All.
Once done, authorise this computer iTunes.
Note: you can only do that once a year.

Hi iPheariPhoPad,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there’s an issue with Settings, the Notes app entry isn’t showing up as expected. Take a look at the article linked below and try restarting your iPhone 3GS.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If that doesn’t do it, try restoring your iPhone as shown in this article:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
Take care,

HT1430 I am unable to go back to factory setting

What have you already tried? Have you tried powering it off and on again? Hard resetting it? Do you get an error when you try to reset to factory defaults?
The more information you provide, the easier it is for people to help you.

After updating my iphone5, my phone went back to factory setting and now I can't sign in with my apple id because it does not recognise it... Help?!

Yes, my telco is an approved carrier. If my phone was brand new, I think so, they opened it in front of me.. I really couldn't remember it was 1.4 years ago. It did seem new.
Well it says, "_____" cannot be used to unlock this iphone. I've tried both my apple ids but it didn't work.

Hello Partii,
It sounds like you may use a POP account for your email. With a POP account, email applications like Mail and Outlook can remove emails from the server, so when another device tries to check the server for new emails, it doesn't see any.
You may need to adjust settings in Outlook so that the emails are not removed from the server when downloaded. I found an article with more information:
When using a POP email account with multiple devices, email messages may only appear on the first device that receives them. This occurs when an email client is configured to automatically remove email from the server once an email client has received it. You can configure your email client (or clients) either to keep a copy of the email on the server, remove it after a certain number of days have passed, or keep it until you move it from your Inbox.
I recommend reviewing the full article for steps on adjusting these settings; you can find the full article here:
Using a POP account with multiple devices

Does anyone know if my iphone 5s contents are backed up automatically within icloud. Because i need to take back to factory setting and prob will lose everything on my phone

Does anyone know if my iphone 5s contents are backed up automatically within icloud. Because i need to take back to factory setting and prob will lose everything on my phone

If iCloud Backup is turned on in Settings->iCloud->Backup
The iPhone will backup automatically, when its plugged in, locked, and connected to Wifi.
So if you let it charge while connected to wifi recently for a few hours and did not use it, it probably backed up.
If you can still access the iPhone, you can check the date of the last iCloud backup in Settings->iCloud->Backup

All I can say is that my current installations all came from OS 9 and Jaguar. I've not attempted to clean them the past eleven years and have beta-tested every cat from Panther on, so cleaning, as a routine is a waste of time. What I do is follow the advice in these linked articles:

Need help resetting the Surface Pro 3 Back to factory Defaults

Hey guys need some help. I have a Surface Pro 3 we were trying to image. No Luck. We have given up for now and tryingto go back to factory defaults. Luckily I made a restore USB before I did anything. Here is the problem:
Somehow we screwd up the UEFI settings and it wont even find the drive. I Keep changing the settings but everytime i go to "Reset Your PC" and repartition drives I get a "Unable to reset your PC. The system Drive cannot be found"
message.
I See no clear way of setting it back to Factory Defaults but here is the Screen BIOS/UEFI screen settings
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Enabled
(Tried Both No luck)
Secure Boot Control Disabled
(Tried Both No luck)
configure Alternate System Boot Order Network-USB- SSD
(Tried both ways no luck)
Configure External Ports -All ports enabled.

Yes you can. From CLI of Mars:
[pnadmin]$ pnreset -h
Usage: pnreset or pnreset option.
        Default. With no options pnreset restores the appliance to factory
        defaults and purges all configuration and event data (certificate and
        fingerprints stored to validate reporting devices, topology settings,
        archived logs, and the license key information).
    -h Displays this usage information.
    -g Removes the Global Controller data from a Local Controller, leaving
        the Local Controller-specific data and the Global Controller
        communication information untouched. Use this option only after
        a Global Controller crash or recovery. In this case, "pnreset -g"
        must be executed on every Local Controller that was monitored by
        the failed Global Controller.
    -s Removes the Global Controller communication information and resets
        a Local Controller to standalone mode. It removes the Global Controller
        data and connectivity data from the Local Controller as well as the
        default Controller zone information. Use this option only after
        a failed Delete of the Local Controller entry from the Global Controller
        "Local Controller Management" web page.
    -o Resets the tnsnames.ora file to factory default. The tnsnames.ora file
        is required for the Oracle client to connect to the Oracle server.
    -j Resets the web server scheduler depending on Local Controller's
        running mode. A restart of web server is enforced.
[pnadmin]$ pnreset
Reset command will erase all data in database and reboot the machine.
Please type YES if you want to proceed:
Hope this helps.

I want to reset my iphone 4 back to factory setting. How do i backup my info

My iphone is so messed up since i updated the ios7. i want and backup my info of my phone then reset to factory setting. how do i do that?

The other option is to plug your device via usb into your computer. (make sure Itunes is already installed). Itunes will recognize your device, and give you the option to do any updates that may be available, and back up to that computer.

Just got the os x snow leopard, trying to set MacBook back to factory setting

Just got the OS X snow leopard disc.
When I install it I want to clear everything off my MacBook and reset it back to factory settings. How do I do this?

Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
Step One - Back up your data:
       A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
       B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
          1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
          2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
          3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
              side.
          4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
              sure to opt for that.
               Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
               startup drive.
Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
          1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
          2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
          3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
          4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
          5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See What to do with iCloud before selling your computer.
Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
     A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
          1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
          2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
          3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
              Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          4. Install OS X.
          5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
          6. Shutdown the computer.
     B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                   it is three times faster than wireless.
          1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
              Utilities window appears.
          2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
          3. 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.
          4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
              and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
          6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
          7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
          8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
*If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.
