Restoration incomplete message after factory restore

After performing a factory restore I am getting the following mesage. Restoration Incomplete . I have retried full factory and system image restore multiple times and after it completes and the computer restarts the restoration incomplete message comes back. Here is what it says when click on the details button.There might be unexpected reboot during factory update. The process will cause CTO panic because the image might not be normal. and then it states the time.The computer is out of warenty and I do not have factory recovery disk and HP says none are availabe from them. I can axcess the full start up menu including F10 Bios Setup. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Robert Fuller

Hi Rod Good luck on that one, I did not even get to a recovery manager to start with.I ended up formatting the HDD and reloading with with our Win7 Pro install disc. I used the license I use for my desktop and that sorted my issue. No more problem.

Synching iPhone after factory restore and restore from backup; synching appears stuck on Step 5 of 5, "waiting for items to copy." That message displays for hours with no apparent progress.

I never had this problem, but just noticed it happening.. Please note it's a BUG. I went out and bought a 128GB iPhone just to hold all my songs. It wouldn't work. This never happened with the iPhone 3/3s/4/5/5s but started happening with the iPhone 6. After 40 hours of working through all possible solutions on the web and with Apple cares support (supposedly senior level) They finally suggested what the problem was. I had "Convert higher bit songs to 128 aac" Checked. This does not work One more thing when I unchecked that, the sync took like 3.5 hours instead of the 9-12 hours is usually took even on the smaller iphones. I have 98.7GB of music. Before I was just syncing a list of specific songs.
The syncing seems to be random when it has the problem though.

Can I retrieve my photos from iphone after factory restore? Will the photos be included in my last back-up?

Can I retrieve photos from iphone 4 after factory restore?

I connected to my computer to back up and update my iOS. At the time I connected to my computer, it also said I needed to update my itunes. So, I updated itunes, then went ahead with downloading and installing the updated iOS. It says that my last back up was today, and now my only option is to restore to factory settings. My concern is being able to get back all of my info. Now, it shows a screen on my iphone with a USB cable and and arrow to the itunes icon.

After I updated to iOS 7.0.2, my iTunes keeps telling me to restore my iPhone, after I restored it. Can someone tell me what I can do to fix this?

If you try all these steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...

Itunes wont detect iphone after factory restore

hello, i had to restore my iphone to factory settings because all my apps would not open. Has been doing this for awhile now. I did the restore, and now when i turn it on,it has an itunes logo and the connect wire shown. Itunes doesnt even detect that my iphone is there. I want to restore from backup, but it wouldnt let me so i had to do the whole restore. What do i need to do to get itunes to detect my iphone? i have lots of data that i cant lose.
Thanks

Ok ... I found the solution. If you view the driver details for the iPhone when plugged in, you will see (at least in my case) that the iPhone is using Microsoft Drivers, not Apple ... this apparently was the issue.
To fix, I downloaded the latest iTunes, I then -extracted- (not installed) the file ... then within the extracted items, there were more .msi files, I extracted all these also.
After extracting, view your iPhone in device manager, click properties, then driver ... update the driver, when asked choose to Browse for folder. Choose the parent folder that you extracted all items to ... Windows should now discover the correct iPhone driver and install.
Don't know if that will work for everyone or not, but it seemed to do it for me.

How do I retrieve my recent calls and recent text messages after I restored the settings

How do I retrieve my recent call log and recent text messages after I had to restore the settings?

If they were in your most recent back up and you restore your phone to that back up, you'll get them back. If they're not in the back up, there's no way to get them back.

Apple TV flawed - lost HD movie rentals after factory restore

I had 2 HD movie rentals downloaded and stored on my Apple TV. This evening when we went to watch one of them, every time I chose the Movie Rentals menu it would take me to the screen that shows my rented movies (and how many days remaining to view them) but I could not select either of them. This was shortly followed by the Apple logo on a black screen, and after a few minutes it would bring up the main menu.
I restarted the Apple TV a few times, but the result was the same each time.
I could not move the movies to my Mac because HD movies cannot be transferred.
My only option? I did a factory restore. I then went to the Downloads option in the Settings menu, expecting it to begin downloading the movies again (and wasting a huge chunk of my monthly bandwidth allowance), only to discover that nothing happened.
Why have Apple designed the Apple TV to 1) force HD movies to stay on the Apple TV with no way to backup 2) no way of retaining rented movies if a Factory Restore is required 3) no way of downloading the movies again (potentially at great expense - additional bandwidth beyond my standard allowance is quite expensive).
Has anyone else had this problem? Has Apple's annoyingly temperamental Apple TV not only wasted my time and my bandwidth, but also my money?

Thanks for the replies.
Of course I knew that a Factory Restore would wipe everything - but having already run a 'diagnostics' (which found no problems), tried restarting the Apple TV, I couldn't see any other way of getting it working again (I've also had regular problems with having no image on screen when waking the Apple TV, so I was overdue trying a Factory Restore to see if it would fix it).
Of course, if I was going to erase and restore my OS X intallation I would make backups - but this isn't an option with the Apple TV's movie rentals - especially HD movies as they cannot be transferred to any other device.
I did however assume that Apple would have some mechanism in place to keep track of things - eg. movie downloaded - yes, movie watched - no, movie deleted - no, movie present - no =>action - allow user to download again.
Perhaps they could even allow some form of 'hidden' sync with your iTunes library - where even if for some reason they don't want you to watch the movie on your computer, that it could store an encrypted backup, so that in the even of an Apple TV factory restore, the content could then be transferred across back to the Apple TV with the first sync.
I've logged into my iTunes account an 'reported a problem'. Unfortunately it's been a couple of hours and I've had no reply (if they're not going to allow these problems to be overcome automatically, they should be quicker with their response). Also, of the 2 movies that were on my Apple TV, one was downloaded 2 days ago, and the other about 2 weeks ago, and only the most recent had the option of 'report a problem'.
Obviously a situation like mine is uncommon - but they really should clean up all the rough edges with the Apple TV to avoid these problems.

Hi:
My notebook is Pavilion dv4 -1435dx, running Vista 64, before i did system restore, windows was running very slow after log on, won't be able to work on it at all.... so i decided to do a factory restore.

After downloaded and installed of windows update, Windows need to restart.... and then it stuck at startup repair again.....now it won't logon to window......
Please help!! Thank you.

Hi
1) Once unit is powered on keep tapping F2 run the test and check if all test passes. If any test fails you need to replace the part.
2) If test passes you might need a set off recovery disc.

Restore ichat history after system restore

Haven't found a usable solution to this problem yet, so help is greatly appreciated.
How do you restore all of your iMessage (iChat) conversations after retiring your Mac to an earlier point in time. Specifically, I used Time Machine to return my iMac to OS X 10.10.1. Was at 10.10.3 (beta 2). When I launch Messages, conversations are present as they were during the TM backup of 10.10.1. So from this point I wish to return all the documents, photos, music, messages, etc. to the point prior to the system restore (10.10.3 b2). Everything can be restored by use of TM for the folders, Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures. But I can not get messages to restore.
Used various methods seen on various forums, i.e. use TM and restore ~/Library/Messages; /com.apple.iChat, but to no avail.. Tried various combinations of logging out/in of massages; iCloud, restarting the computer, again with no avail. I usually end up with all of the list of those that I sent a message to but no messages.
I believe there is some magical, specific order in which to do this successfully. I haven't found it yet.
HELP!
& Thx

Hi,
I have not delved deep enough to say which item actually holds the list of active Chats or Conversations in the side bar.
The chat.db item itself is the one that hold the "history" that shows up when your start a chat with someone you have chatted to before in iMessages.
You need to have Saved Chats in the Archive folder for this to work with AIM, Jabber, Yahoo and Bonjour Buddies.
Apple's own documentation tends to refer to iMessages as Conversations and any other account as Chats.
The exception now being SMS/text which the app Links to iMessages.
If you just Restore the whole computer to the last day you ran OS X 10.10.1 then it should have all the Chats/Conversations you were having that day.
However changing them by effectively Importing the newer ones (those up to the last time you used OS X 10.10.3beta) will upset things.

X61s - Rescue & Restore - There is no Factory Restore option

I have an X61s with Vista Home Basic, and I want to use ThinkVantage to do a Factory System Restore.
I can boot into the Rescue & Restore utility (via the ThinkVantage button or F11), this is just fine.
The problem is : There is no "Factory Restore" option. I'm only given the option to restore from backup.
Any ideas? The fact that I can access the R&R utility but not get that "Factory Restore" option.
thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

kamszelei, welcome to the forum,
from a lurker
which version of Think Vantage System Upate do you have installed?
If you have version 3.13.0009 installed please try the following; boot into Windows and run TVSU. It'll update itself, restart, then update itself again. Hopefully the option to recover to factory content will then be available to you.
Please also check the following registry key; HKLM\Software\Lenovo\TVT Common
If the "System Type" key is 1, change it to 0. If it is already set to 0 don't change anything and let us know.
Hope this helps

HT1923 I had to restore my computer to factory restore. When I downloaded and installed my itune, none of my music is there. How can I get it back?

Hi,
I had to restore my computer to factory setting. When I was finished and reinstalled itunes. None of my music showed up. Where is it and why didn't it show up when I reinstalled itunes? I even plugged in my apple shuffle and it didn't appear.

This user tip should be helpful. It refers to the iPhone, but it's equally valid for iPods as well…
