RESTORING CERTAIN FILES FROM RECOVERY DISKS

How do I restore only certain files from the recovery cd's that came with my L305-S5894? I don't want to do a full re-install or format.
Thanks

Toshiba (or any OEM) does not supply an installation disc.
What you can do is listed in the section Hard Disk Drive Recovery options on p. 61 and in the section

    I have a backup file on icloud for an old ipad.  I want to extract certain files.  How can I access that backup and look at the files so that I can extract certain ones?

    You can't selectively restore from a back up, you need to restore everything or nothing.

    It's important to define deleted and recovery. You can recover file from the recycle bin using the Win API. Here's an

  • HELP! How can i restore/recover files from Bootcamp with Boot Failure - Missing operating system error?

    Hi,
    I am having a few problems with bootcamp on my imac. When i tried to move the bootcamp partition on windows 7 into free space, it crashed and turned off. Ever since i have had the error 'Missing operating system' and it fails to boot. I have some very important files on the bootcamp partition. Is it possible to recover these files or even to restore the bootcamp partition to it's original state? I do not have a backup of my bootcamp partition. Another problem i have is that ever since i tried to expand my macintosh HD partition into free space, when i hold alt while booting up (to choose which partition to boot like i normally do), the bootcamp partition has stopped appearing. This means that i cannot even boot the windows 7 bootcamp partition anymore!
    So basically here are my 2 questions:
    How can i restore/recover files from Bootcamp with Boot Failure - Missing operating system error?
    How can i make the Bootcamp partition appear in Startup Disk and when i hold the option key while starting up my computer to allow me to boot windows 7?
    Any solutions are very much apreciated!
    Thanks!
    I know that bootcamp (disk0s4) hasn't been fully deleted since it appears in disk utility (i cant do anything to it though)
    And here is the error i see when i try to launch bootcamp (back when i was actually able to boot up bootcamp to the error screen)

    WinClone 3 is OS X and saves Windows image it makes for restore - that should work but you will have to try and you would need to make a new image unless it also works with a native Windows system restore image. It is now supported and has come a long way.

    Paragon Clone OS works and does disk-to-disk clone just like CCC you end up with two bootable drives. But does not work with your setup. It would let you clone and move your Windows install to an SSD or another disk drive though and be bootable.
    During its clone process it checks for errors which is very helpful and lets you know - something CCC and others should adopt more of.

    I wish for our/my sake you had re-read and rewritten the long 'story' and broken it into a brief list of facts we needed.
    OS X
    Windows
    Backup (though external is much safer) and you want bootable OS X clones as well as TimeMachine
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
    There are a number of things to do like chkdsk and others as well as Windows DVD to do automatic system repairs and find out why.
    AppleHFS - the abilty to mount and read HFS volumes can be notorious.
    I would rearrange and redo your storage setup and how you use the 4-5 internal hard drive bays.

  • Install SSD from Recovery Disks (newerToshiba), or how?

    http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/System-Recovery-and-Recovery/Will-Toshiba-Recovery-Discs-properly-align...
    ^ See the last post of that thread.   The writer made recovery disks from the new laptop, then installed the SSD and used the recovery disks to install the operating system and software onto the new SSD.  (Didn't clone the hard drive, in other words.)
    If you don't need to save settings and migrate files, is recovery-disks-to-SSD the best way to go?
    I have a U505-S2012 Satelllite and a 256GB Crucial M4 SSD sitting here, ready to go,  LoL.  But I didn't know whether it was even possible to make the recovery disks install to a SSD.  Or make them install to a hard drive that's smaller than the original.
    Any thoughts or advice?
    Thanks!

    As for me it's no matter how to install win7 on the new SSD drive - fresh install, clone hdd or use Factory Recovey media. For the x220 I've used the 2nd and 3rd methods.
    As for twiking of win7 after a not clean installation just use sw from Intel for their SSD or twik it youself during 10-15 min. Alignment is not a problem if you use an SSD with TRIM support.
    If you need UEFI the only clean installation is the method.
    x220 | i5-2520m | Intel ssd 320 series | Gobi 2000 3G GPS | WiFi

  • Delete certain files from backup

    Is it possible to:
    1) backup my iPhone (locally with my iTunes on Win7), I CAN DO THIS, of course
    2) delete only certain files from the backup (there are many tools for exploring backup, but I have not found anyone which can also delete certain file, only view and export), I CAN LOCATE THE BACKUP DIRECTORY and see the files, but is it possible to locate those that I'd like to delete and simply erase them?
    3) restore my iPhone with such an altered backup?
    Thank you
    Kamil
    PS: I need to delete certain files from var directory, but I do not have root access, so this seems to be the only solution (I do not want to jailbreak and also I do not want to start from zero, I mean to make factory reset and then to set up everything again)

    Maybe you should try to install it and try it yourself.
    You can edit sql databases (delete some records e.g. from call history), but you cannot delete files in the folders (.jpegs, .plist etc.).
    I tried to export only files, that I wanted to recover, then I have made factory reset of my iPhone, made new local backup of the empty reseted device. Then I tried to import to this empty backup those exported files, but it is also not supported. Only files which already exist in the current backup can be imported. It means that you cannot remove or add file into the backup, you can only modify it - with this tool certainly.
    Let us try it with another question: is it possible to make selective restore (to restore only certain settings, call history, SMS's, files...,) but not the whole backup?
    Thank you for your effort.

  • Why can't I delete certain files from my Time Capsule?

    I don't have my Time Capsule set up to back up every hour or so.  It's set up so that I can manually drag & drop files into it.  I've been trying to free up space by deleting some movie files that don't need anymore.  They appear to be just .avi format but I haven't been paying close enough attention to see if any other formats won't delete.  What prevents certain files from being deleted from the Time Capsule?

    I only asked about each folder down the hierarchy to and including one video you can't delete.
    If you copy a new file into each of the higher-level folders down to and including the "MOVIES" folder, can you then delete that new file?
    If you're willing to use a command in a Terminal session, I can tell you how to determine what process has a file open.

  • TS3694 how do you solve a error 1015 when restoring a iphone from recovery mode?

    how do you solve a error 1015 when restoring a iphone from recovery mode?

    This error is generally exhibited when someone tries to downgrade iOS. See this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    This is the part you are looking for.
    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed. Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported. 
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

  • Restoring Control file from snapshot

    Hi,
    As in RMAN the following configuration will create snapshot of control file.
    CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'product/10.2.0/dbs/snapcf_PROD.f'; # default
    My question is how to restore control file from this snapshot to another location.
    Regards
    Krishna

    Copy RMAN backup files including archive log backup files to the target server
    Copy the SNAPSHOT CONTROL FILE or backed up control file from source server to target server.
    Source Server:
    RMAN> connect target /;
    connected to target database: HRDMO (DBID=209403493034)
    RMAN> show SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME;
    using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
    RMAN configuration parameters are:
    CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/opt/oracle/10g/dbs/snapcf_HRDMO.f'; # default
    Target Server:
    Export ORACLE_SID=HRDMO
    RMAN
    RMAN>startup nomount;
    RMAN> set DBID=209403493034;
    executing command: SET DBID
    RMAN> restore controlfile from '/opt/oracle/standby/dbs/snapcf_crmprod.f'; # The location where you have it in target srvr.
    RMAN>alter database mount;
    RMAN> run
    2> {
    3> sql 'alter session set NLS_DATE_FORMAT="YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS"';
    4> set until time '2008-01-31 01:00:00';
    5> restore database;
    6> recover database;
    7> }
    RMAN>alter database open resetlogs;
    You have the copy of instance in the target server.

  • Copy a file from hard disk to a jar

    Is there any way to copy a file from hard disk to a jar file?

    No, I want to copy a file into an other jar file (like a zip or a rar file)
    Edited by: hajani on Dec 7, 2008 4:11 AMIf you really do mean 'jar' file an not 'zip' or 'rar' then you can use class java.util.jar.JarFile and write your own code. If you don't feel like writing a load of code then and you can guarantee that the 'jar' executable is going to be available then you could use Runtime.exec() or it's cousin ProcessBuilder. If you mean a 'zip' file then you could use class java.util.zip.ZipFile and write a load of code. If you mean a 'rar' file then you will either have to find a 'rar' class library or again use Runtime.exec().

  • HT201250 Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive?  I'm trying to restore lost photo files and I see them listed in Time Machine (without use of an external drive), but when I try to restore I get a error code 36.

    Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive?  While I was transferring photos back and forth from a thumb drive something went haywire and my IPhoto was wiped clean!  When I click on Time Machine I see all the dated pages (without an external storage drive connected), go back to a date where all my photo files are there, click "restore", and I get the message:  "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in file cant be read or written (error code - 36)"

    Thanks so much Terence.  I tried some of the fixes from that page, but then discovered the suggestion to compress the Time Machine Back up of the original library and transfer it as a zip back to my computer as detailed here:

    That worked like a charm.  I really appreciate it. 

  • How can I restore iCloud files from my lost iPhone

    I backed up my files to icloud. But I lost my Iphone last week. How can I restore my files from icloud to my macbook ?

    Are you using Photostream?  If yes, then you will be able to see your 1000 most recent photos on your Mac in iPhoto.
    All your contacts, calendar events, emails, etc. will still be on your Mac as part of iCloud.
    If you didn't import your videos from your iPhone to your Mac, then you've lost them unless you can restore your cloud backup to another iOS device.

    Because it says it's incompatible when it can't be, I got hope. I get error messages all the time with my iPod and iPhone that it cannot sync and that 'this device is not capapble of connecting to iTunes' stuff. I literally forget that happened, plug it in again and it works, I later realize that iTunes made a mistake, they do that.

    Hi there Br0x,
    You may want to try rebuilding the iTunes library as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • My hard drive failed. I was able to restore my files from an external hard drive. I have my bookmarks saved but am not able to import them into Firefox as the only option is to import them from another browser. Any suggestions?

    -My hard drive failed.
    -I was able to restore my files from an external hard drive.
    -My bookmarks are saved to a folder on my new hard drive.
    -I am not able to import them from this folder on my hard drive into Firefox.
    - the only option Firefox offers for importing bookmarks is to import them from another browser...is there another way?

    In Firefox the bookmarks are saved in a database file called places.sqlite in the profile folder. If you have got this file from the external hard drive you can restore the bookmarks by copying this file to your current profile folder. For details of the location of the profile folder see either https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles or http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
