Satellite L500 did not ask for Recovery Disc 2

Hello,
I have just formatted my laptop using Recovery Disc 1. On forums, it says after Disc 1, the menu will ask for Disc 2. But it never asked for Disc 2. Should I have inserted it right after it asked me to eject Disc 1?
I am writing this now on my newly set up Win 7. Everything seems fine but I wonder whether the lack of Disc 2 will cause any problem. Is there any way to boot my laptop also using the second disc?
Thanks!

The second disk will be created only if the space on the first disk would not be enough! So the amount of recovery disk depends on the size of the image file.
If your notebook works properly, I would not be afraid about the 2nd missing disk :)

$300 charge for the phone i did not ask for!!!

Hello,
my name is Irina , phone number xxx-xxx-xxxx.
I came to a Verizon store (Harbor east branch on Fleet street, Baltimore., MD) two months ago to purchase screen protectors for my iphone. Before i left the assistant asked if there was anything else they could help me with. I said the home button wasn't working properly so they offered to take a look at it.
After inspecting the iphone the assistant said the issue could not be fixed and offered to order a replacement iphone for no additional charges, since the inspection had not detected water damage.
I gladly agreed! Received my replacement ipone, mailed the old one back. it was two months ago.
Now two months later i see a $299 charge for the replacement phone i received in march because they detected water damage in my old iphone.
How ridiculous is that? I did not ask for it. If i knew there was a chace of water damage why would i risk a $300 charge replacing my iphone when i could just wait a few months for the iphone 5 free upgrade?! My old phone worked fine, except for the home button being not sensitive.
And now you're expecting me to pay $300 for what?
The store has to take responsibility for this. The charge needs to be taken off my account. My whole family and i have been verizon customers for 5 years and i cant believe this is happening now!
If no action is taken to resolve this problem im going to file a complain to FFC Better Business Bureau.
I'm hoping to hear from a verizon representative as soon as possible. Customer service on the phone would not help.
I can not believe how difficult it is to find contact information to get in touch with the right people who will be in position to help.
Thank you for your coordination,
Irina

So, my son's iPhone 4s was having issues with the power button and the home button. I bought it less than a year ago and have also purchased the insurance. That said these kept sticking and didn't work, so we took it into the Verizon store where a sales clerk took it to the back and after 15 minutes came back to tell us that his iPhone was broken, and that the problems were common and we could get a new phone under the warranty. We asked 5 questions along the lines of are you sure? They said yes. They looked up our information and NOT ONCE did they advise us to go thru the Insurance option that I pay $9.99 a month for. This issue would be covered by warranty for SURE! They gave us a box to ship it back to Verizon in, ordered him a new phone, and wala it came in the mail 3-5 days later. THEN 10 days AFTER that, I get an email from Verizon telling me that they "disallowed" the warranty claim as the issue was not due to a malfunction of the phone but some kind of damage -- which then they included a picture of (and the picture did NOT even show on the email). They also wanted me to know that I would be seeing a $299 charge for the replacement phone. I didn't even PAY $299 for the original phone back when I bought it - there was a $199 promo deal going on. I called customer service - what a CLUSTER! They pulled up the email and could SEE the picture I couldn't - and the notation apparently saying that the phone had suffered WATER DAMAGE. This PHONE has been treated like GOLD -- it never had ANY Water damage, they are just trying to get out of honoring the Warranty. WHY would the service tech @ the Verizon store tell us it was a common issue covered under warranty AFTER inspection? WHY would he tell us that it would be taken care of and to send the phone into Verizon with a new replacement on the way?? The Customer Service person then shared with me "oh - I see you have the Asurion Insurance" - I said YES, I did get that when we bought the phone. She said we should have SENT the damaged phone thru Insurance for replacement. OMG! We RELIED UPON THEIR OWN employee to discern the nature of the issue. If they had looked up the account and saw I had insurance, why did they not go that route? What a *****. So net net - I AM NOT PAYING $299 for that phone - they can send me to a collection agency. Honestly what a racket and what kind of employees are working there - incompetent. I will NOT pay for that phone. The worst case should have been I had to pay the insurance deductible, but we relied on the Verizon store employee to diagnose the problem and provide recommended action - which WAS WRONG!

Haveing Problems with Outlook express did not ask for it do not want it, pleasetell Us in an email how to disable it as it *up my computer

You have put outlook express into our computer we did not ask for it we do not want it.

''edited for language - TonyE''

Mozilla would not have installed Outook Express on your computer, they do not offer Microsoft programs. This would have been something that you or somebody using your computer would have installed.
Check the Windows control panel add/remove programs for Outlook Express, you should be able to uninstall it from there.

Charged for items I did not ask for and refuse to refund

I signed up for a bundle back in Sept of 08, which during that time I called a few times because I was charged for channels I did not want or sign up for, they did refund those or at least parts. However now I notice that I am being charged for 6.99 home wire maintence, I did not ask for this, so I called and they said we can't refund that, I asked how long it had been and they said since sept of 08 when I signed up...however vz signed me up for paperless statements, I did not ask for that and when I look at my bill online I cannot see the wire charge unless I go to download paper bill, i thought they were the same thing as what I was seeing online, so I never loked at them- they refuse to give me my money back - they said they sent a welcome letter when I signed up witht his on it, I did not see anything about this. Anyone else have a similar problem? My friends have all had over charges with their bundles. But I do realize this goes way back, but these charges where soemthing I had to basically hunt for, they were not on my online bill that I normally see. Their supervisers refuse to help, any suggestions how to get my money back? They should not be allowed to do this to people?

Hi aa16346....hmmm? allow me to contact billing for you in order to come to a resolution. In a private message please send me your billing account number so I can look into this for you. Sorry for this frustration. Allow me to help, thanks.

Why is Apple putting music on my iPhone that I did not ask for and do not want ?

I have a Mac Pro and an iPod Classic that I use for my music.
I noticed today that some of my purchased music was on my iPhone iTunes app. I did not ask for these to be installed.
Also, I noticed that when I tap on a song, sometimes it plays, sometimes nothing happens.

Do you mean this
No.
These are thousands of songs that I purchased using my Mac Pro. I sync my iPod Classic with a USB cable to move the songs to the iPod.
Now, my purchased songs (not the ones imported into my Mac Pro using a CD), are in my iPhone. I do not use the cloud. I have been very careful not to sign up for anything related to the cloud.
I'm trying to figure out why Apple is forcing this on me.

How do I uninstall webmail notifier that I did not ask for in the first place? It is really slowing dowon my computer.

I figured it out! Click on the Orange 'Firefox' tab on the upper left hand side of the Firefox browser, Choose 'Options', then deselect 'Yahoo! toolbar'.

How to get a refund for Verizon services I did not ask for?

I just got a piece of mail about "Total Mobile Protection" . $11 per month on one of my 4 lines. I never asked for this. I called Verizon and they said, sorry cant help. You signed the user agreement at the store! Wow! No manager, no escalation path. They turned it off but how do I get my $18 back? Nothing but headaches so far with Verizon. 3 of 4 lines required support calls to transfer the lines, and now this.

I was billed prorated 8$ in November and $11 for December. I just got the paper mail about "total mobile protection", yesterday and called immediately. I just called billing support again today and she did credit just $11, (but not the $8. First she was going to credit the $8 but not the $11) as she wasn't able to prove did or did not agree to this charge. The Verizon rep also asked me why i just got the mail about "total mobile protection" yesterday! How would I know why Verizion waited over a month to send it? So i guess the default is the customer is wrong. I don't care about the $ that much but don't like the idea of random charges that can't be refunded.
After having to call support 7 times (3 provisioning and 2 different billing issues) and visit the store to fix Verizon mistakes, and Verizon basically telling me I am lying, we are not off to a good start on this new contract.

I have been charged for a book i did not ask for? also how do I get apple to change to my new I pad?

I have been charged for "the Forgotten by David Baaldacci. This book I did not order and don't know where it came from?
also how do I get amazon to down load books on my NEW I pad 2? It still wants to go to my old I pad. I would like to use my new pad.

For Amazon stuff you should consult the Amazon help and forums. It has nothing to do with Apple or iBooks.
For your wrong book problem, try using the "report a problem" link on your receipt or in the Purchases section of your iTunes account.

Purchased a 2011 iMAC i5 500GB from a retailer about a month ago. Did not have any recovery disc.

Had a couple of small issues with some programs, Called Apple Support and after they weren't able to solve the problems, Their answer has to erase the hard drive and reinstall the OS. Only problem was that I am not the original purchaser and when I try to reinstall through internet recovery, being the second owner, there is no record of me purchasing the OS (Lion 10.7). So now thanks to Apple Support, I have a paper weight instaed of a working iMAC. Is there any other way to get an OS back on my machine?
Thanks for any help.

Did you complain to the manager of the store? If I were you, if you are not getting satisfaction from the retailer, complain about them on their FB site, Twitter & write a letter to the CEO of the retailer & snail mail it!

Since iOS8 my iphone 3GS no longer synchronises with my two ipads and my laptop. none of the many suggested solutions work. i rely on my phone to work as it did before for medical reasons. i did not ask for this to happen. why must i pay?

as my iphone used to remind me when to take my medicine wherever i was i could trust apple and its products for use. i can no longer do this and mourn the loss of freedom of movement i had prior to iOS8. i have spent days and days following advice and suggested remedies without success. i see no other solutions than buying a phone that will sync with iOS8. but why should i pay to repair damage to the system i have relied upon done by someone else? is it in fact legat for anyone to do this to me, or anyone else?

I cannot check any recorded version of any telephone call. You are referring to me as if I am an Apple employee. That could not be further than the truth. If you took the time to read any part of where you register for the forum, this is a user to user forum. I am a user just like yourself.
You made the statement that you use your phone to create a reminder to take medication. A 3GS phone is incapable of running iOS8, so that has nothing to do with it. I asked if you have iOS8 on your iPads, which you fail to identify, and avoid the answer. And where does the laptop fit into this, since it does not use iOS8.
If you were to identify the problem you are alleging, then someone might be interested in helping. You do not indicate your issue except to say about an inability to synchronize between devices. And I do not appreciate your assessment of my character.
Let me be precise: You are not addressing Apple, no one can determine what has happened to your devices since you do not describe the issues, and it is not up to users to determine responsibility. I suggest you contact Apple again, as you state you have done, and take up the issue with them.
I'm through.

Downloaded Firefox on 01/16/2015 on brand new laptop. Came with stuff that installed automatically, did not ask for, did not want. Vosteran & OptimizerPro. Why?

I am typing this from my tower and not my laptop. I cannot keep my laptop connected long enough to do anything on the internet since downloading Firefox on it.
I am NOT a happy camper. I went directly to the Mozilla web address, and downloaded and installed Firefox browser. It came with GARBAGE! Have had nothing but problems since. Have been working on this since 01/16/2015. It's messed up my internet access as well; I have to keep resetting it.
How on earth did these programs come bundled with my Firefox browser download? and Why are they there?

Firefox any version for any OS does not come bundled with extra stuff if you get it from www.mozilla.org
If you found the download site you downloaded from from a search in say Google or Bing then the site was likley one of the Ads above the real search results.
The other possibility is you are already infected.

HT3702 I got charged $104.00 for a game I never play. How do I get it reversed. I did not ask for this charge nor did I authorize it.

I had a friend over and she found a casino game on my IPAD2. She played it for a few minutes and asked if she could purchase $19.99 more of coins. I finally okayed the $19.99 but then noticed she had over a million points. I didn't know how this happened. Then I checked my account and found that after the initial $19.99 charge an automatic charge also showed up for $104.99 had been taken from my account. I want to know how to get this reversed as it was identity theft and was not I repeat NOT AUTHORIZED BY ME. I need my money. How can I get it back. I trusted ITunes and now I get ripped off. It turns customers off real fast. Please help.

How do I get rid of BING? It blocks my mail in AOL so that I cannot read mail. IE works and so does AOL..I want BING Search off my computer - did not ask for it do not want it!!

I've answered all this crap before!! I just want BING to quit blocking my emails with a search page! Hate to dump FF for IE but am strongly considering it!

The Bing search engine has been added to the installed search engines in Firefox beta versions.<br />
You can click the search engine icon in the search bar and select Google or another search engine.<br />
If you do not see Google then open Manage Search Engines and click the "Restore Defaults" button.
