Restoring backed up data after Win7 recovery

did a total recovery from the HP Support Assistant - first backed up files to external hd thru same restarted computer as instructed, am ready to put back all my stuff from the external HD - HOW DO I DO THAT PROPERLY? I look at the external and I'm not sure how to do it. HELP please? I dont want to flub this up as I've done before and made things worse!!! thanks so much for your help asap!

Thank you randers4 and Eric Ross. The only problem is that i did this because of the following error:
"To: Clash of Clans. "When I first started on my iPad I didn't log in to game centre (but I thought I had). Then I downloaded it on my iPhone and followed the steps to register, and thus created two games...the one on my iPad which was far advanced and the one on my phone which I had played once but was registered. Now, whenever I play on my iPad it asks to sync with game centre (which I want to do so I don't lose my game but it will be overwritten with the phone game, which I dont want."
And i followed their advice which was:
"If you wish to start another game, you need to reset your device - please use this with caution as you will lose all data from the device.
In order to reset your device safely, please follow the steps below:
1) Go to settings
2) Go to iCloud
3) Go to Storage & BackUp
4) Go to "BackUp now"
5) Go back to settings and go to "general"
6) Go to "reset"
7) Go to "erase all content & settings"
After the reset is done and your device starts up again, it is very important that you do not load your back-up immediately.
8) Skip the Backup (click on "later")
9) Go to the App Store
10) Download Clash of Clans
11) Log in through Game Center and start a new game
12) Go back to settings / iCloud and load the back-up to get all your files back"
As you can see, i was not supposed to restore back up during the set up process. i just hoped there was another way - or maybe i'm misreading the instructions.

HT4859 restoring backed up data - after set up assistant

What if i have skipped the "restore from icloud backup" during the set up assistant - is there any way to get it once the ipad is up and running?

I don't know if this is a similar problem but I wrote 2 notes yesterday on my iphone. I opened my mail to print them and they appeared as notes but wouldn't load. Then I looked at them on my iphone and I could see the notes but they quickly updated to blank with a time of the last edit the same time I tried opening them on my computer.
Yesterday I updated to 4.3.4 I don't know if somehow that affected them. Are they stored somewhere else. Can I get them back?

Restore Safari Keychain data after Remove All

Restore Safari Keychain data after Remove All
I mistakenly removed all Safari Keychain data, which, of course, also removed the data from my iOS devices. I attempted a restore with a "Keychain" folder. It's on my desktop, but I'm not sure what to do with it or if it's even the right data. Can anyone help with how to restore keychain with Mozy? Thanks!!

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the AutoFill tab.
Select: User names and passwords
Visit a website. Enter the login data. You will be prompted tos save that data to a new keychain.
Restore... as I mentioned previously, Mozy is not compatible with Keychain Access. There is no way to restore with Mozy.
In the future, you may want to use iCloud Keycahin to store login data.

HT1766 How can i restore all my data after deleting the apps? can i syncing back from the macbook?

How can i restore back all my data after deleting the apps and re-install back.
After reinstall back stll retrieve all my data.
Can i syncing back the original frm my macbook since last update is Mar

Favor the route via iTunes and local storage on the computer. MUCH faster than any cloudy backup, no matter the speed of your Internet connection. No network beats the speed of a hard drive. Just make sure there's enough room on the computer before you start, must contain all that's on the iGadget.

Restoring Back To 10g After A Failed 11g Upgrade Of a RAC Database

I'm testing this out on a small test RAC database. I successfully upgraded it from 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.2 but wanted to test the scenario of having to go back to 10g if the upgrade really hosed up. The first recovery attempt seemed to be successful but after bringing the DB down with srvctl, it failed on the next startup saying it needed to be started in upgrade mode. Something from 11g was still in place or the fact that I was trying to restart a 10g database managed by 11g clusterware was the issue. I tried starting the DB from both 10g and 11g environments and got the same result. Even starting each instance individually got the same result.
In all that I tried, I got the usual incarnation and "until time before reset time" messages. I've been doing this all through RMAN without EM or Grid Ctl. As usual, any docs I found have had just a little information and I have to piece my own instructions together from all of them, not knowing for sure it all steps would apply in my situation.
Can anybody point me to a good doc or other resource that might help me out? Many thanks!

Now I have a different issue with apparently the same problem. I successfully did the restore/recover as before but the thing pukes when I open resetlogs at the end. Something, somewhere is still pointing to 11g but I have no idea where or what has changed since the last time I did this. Maybe I've messed things up by doing this multiple times. Here are my RMAN commands:
RMAN> connect target
RMAN> startup force nomount;
RMAN> RESTORE SPFILE TO '+DATA/jimg/spfilejimg.ora' from '/local/oracle/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/c-2526333028-20110915-01';
RMAN> shutdown immediate;
(in a different session, from command line)
% mv /local/oracle/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/initJIMG1.ora.bak /local/oracle/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/initJIMG1.ora
RMAN> startup force nomount pfile='/local/oracle/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/initJIMG1.ora';
RMAN> restore controlfile from '/local/oracle/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/c-2526333028-20110915-01';
RMAN> alter database mount;
RMAN>
run {
restore database;
recover database;
RMAN> alter database open resetlogs;
The errors I get after resetlogs are:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of alter db command at 09/16/2011 09:24:50
ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced
ORA-00704: bootstrap process failure
ORA-39700: database must be opened with UPGRADE option
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced
ORA-00704: bootstrap process failure
ORA-39700: database must be opened with UPGRADE option
This is being done on a small, expendable database for practice. I think I've learned enough about what NOT to do to keep me from getting in this jam to begin with. Any thoughts?

Problem restoring files and settings after a recovery

I did a system recovery using recovery disks purchased from HP. My files and settings were backed up during the recovery program on an external drive.
There were no instructions included on restoring files and settings after the system recovery. I called HP and a support tech told me to run the backup program on the external drive from the admin profile which I did. However, the program put my old files on my C drive at the following location C:\System Recovery Files\C\Users\Bill.
How do I use these files under my current user profile at C:\Users\Bill?
I suppose I could move my data files, folder by folder, but is there an easier and better way?
My computer is as follows:
HP Pavilion GC673AAR-ABA m8100n, SN MX3733051W
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Unfortunately the backup feature within the recovery manager is used as a last resort option for gathering whatever files can be saved, and there is no way to place the files back to where they were previously.
I am an HP employee, but my views are my own and are not endorsed by HP.

Restoring from Time Machine after system recovery

If I recover my mac with the recovery DVD and use Migration Assistant to restore all the data of the system before the restoration; what will come back? Will I have my old system on the newly restored mac?

as i said in my first post you don't need Migration assistant here at all. Just do a full system restore from TM: boot from the install DVD, go to the Utilities menu and choose " system restore from TM". follow the instructions. Your system will be restored to the exact state it was in at the moment of TM backup.

Help, how to restore backed-up data from old 3GS to my new 3GS?

Hi I recently got a replacement phone, and when i synced it to iTunes, the prompt to restore my backed-up data came up. However when I tried to restore, it prompted me to update my new phone's software to 3.1 first.
So now, after updating my software, how do I restore the data from my old phone?
Coz the first prompt does not appear anymore.
Would appreciate your feedback, thanks!

Upgrade to 3.1 first, do not sync or backup. After you upgrade, reconnect & select restore from previous backup & all your data will be put back on the new phone.
When you right click on your phone under devices in the right column, one of your choices will be restore from backup.

Is there any way to "Restore" back to iOS 5 after mistakenly upgrading to 6?

Well, so much for using the "Maps" app on my overseas vacation starting next week. I wonder how soon they will fix that?

Unable to restore backed up files after recovery

I had to do a system recovery, and in the process backed up my files. After recovery, I updated Microsoft and HP files, installed Norton 360, Office 2007, Outlook, and Nikon photo software. I then tried to restore my backed up files. Every time a User Account Control box pops ups and stating an unidentified program wants to access my computer. I press allow, User account Control box goes away but nothing else happens. Help!

Hey asjhawk,
If you go into the advance backup and restore function are the database on your device and on your backup the same size?
Also you can try this.
Open the contact list.
Press the Menu key, then click Filter.
Clear the check box beside the category.
Let us know how you make out.
