Hello,
How do I erase all data from my 1TB Time Capsule for resale purpose's?

I believe you can only do that via AirPort Utility -> Disks -> Erase. Just select the most secure erase option given.

How to erase all datas and reset default

How to erase all datas and factory reset in iMac

Boot into the Recovery HD (restart holding down Command+r). Launch Disk Utility and erase the drive (all data will be gone forever so make sure you have a reliable copy of any valuable data). Quit out of Disk Utility when formatting is complete and select re-install OS X (you'll need an Internet connection).

How to erase all data on E71x ?

I just bought an E71x and I really regret. Because :
1. batter--hard to take it in/out
2. Sync--no contact group function when sync with outlook. I have to group my contact manually
3. Voice command sucks
4. Very hard to hard rese/erase all data after doing the factory configuration
Can anyone tell me how to erase all the data? My steps are as follows:
1. Go to factory configuration
2. Enter lock code 12345
3. After the device restart, calendar/to-do data... are still on the device.
Thank you in advance.

because newer nokia devices have udp- user data preservation feature even if you reset your phone data will remian intact. the only way to truly get rid off your stuff is to use option 3 on this list. understand that you will lose all your data and make sure you ahve a back up of everything you need before doing this. the default code is always 12345. the restore setttings option DOES not remove any data, just restores default settings on your phone.
1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for all operations listed here is 12345
2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone
3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
hard reset - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. )
If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

How to erase all data

I want to erase all data before I give my iPhone 5 to repair.
When I go to "Erase all Content and Settings"
it askes me for my 4 digit Passcode.
The problem is, I never set a Passcode to the iPhone.
I did once to my iPad.
I tried 2 different Passcodes I used on other devices, none of them worked... of course!
So how can I erase the data on my iPhone then?

if I will do that, what happens to the backup I wanted to bring back when I want to restore the phone to its current state? It might overwrite an empty backup over the original one?

I can't erase all data and content from my iPhone 4s. It says iCloud account not verified, when it only asks for my Apple ID to erase all data and content.

It's really been puzzling me, I've never logged in the Apple site on a laptop before - I have been getting the same message 'Unable to verify iCloud account' every time I try and erase all data and content from my iPhone 4s. When I go to iCloud on my laptop and sign in using my Apple ID it signs me in. These are the same log in details I am prompted for when trying to erase all data/content from the phone. If anybody could point me in the direction that would be really appreciated. Thanks

Hi.
Yes, I recently changed my Apple ID password - around 2 weeks ago when I bought the phone.
Does anyone know if you need to do the IOS update to be able to restore all data and content? I have not installed the new update on either of my iPhone 4S's yet.
The phone I am trying to reset was sold to me by a friend and when it was it had already been reset and it was on the language selection screen.

I recently purchased a brand new Airport Time Capsule 2TB. I already am using the previous generation time capsule to back up all my computers data. May I ask how can I complement the usage with my new time capsule?

By default your new Time Capsule will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN
Most likely your iMacs will be connected to the wireless network created by the Virgin Media router. However, both should see the Apple Network under the AirPort icon's drop-down menu as another wireless network that they can connect to. Is this not the case?

I unfortunately just got my IPhone 4s stolen.I thought I had the find my iPhone enabled but I didn't because I cannot locate the phone when I sign in ICloud.How can I erase all data on the phone so the thief can't access my personal information.

I unfortunately just got my IPhone 4s stolen.I thought I had the find my iPhone enabled but I didn't because I cannot locate the phone when I sign in ICloud.I have a password on the phone but i'm not sure if I turned on the option where the phone resets if you incorrectly put the password more than ten time. I immediately called my phone company (Verizon) and reported the phone stolen.So I know whoever took the phone cannot place calls or use the phone. But can they still access my data on the phone if they manage to unlock the phone? If so how can I erase all data on the phone so the thief can't access my personal information? is there any other way other than Find my IPhone to wipe off the data on the phone? I really don't want my personal information such as pictures, text messages, notes and social networks profile available to a stranger!!? Help please!!!

Hello thewrongway,
I'm sorry to hear about your phone! I understand the need for an active device. You are able to activate an old device and process an insurance claim for your iPhone 4s within 60days from the incident date. Keep in mind if the old phone is not a smartphone and you currently have unlimited data that feature will fall off. If you have a tier data plan no changes will be made. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thank you.

How do I safety dispose of an old, unusable time capsule? If at all possible, I would like to recycle.

How do I safety dispose of an old, unusable time capsule? If at all possible, I would like to recycle.

If the TC is dead.. then you need to open it to erase the hard disk..
See http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Apple_Time_Capsule
There is nothing you can do in a dead TC to delete your files and if you have info in a TM backup it is a risk.
Apple will exchange the dead one if you buy a new TC.. but they have no return program for the TC itself.
Once you wipe the disk it is safe to put it back and sell on ebay or wherever.

Time Capsule not backup up all of external HDD's Data, only partial.

I cannot get my Time Capsule to back up all of my data spread over two external drives and a internal drive. Can anyone help me to get my TC to back up ALL my data?
EX HDD 150gb
EX HDD 120gb
IN HDD 147 out of 230 gb full.
Total: 417gb
Time Capsule showing 288gb used.
Is it not sensing one external drive? Is it compressing the data and therefore doesn't add up to total. How do I check for a complete back up? Also, can I back disks up as separate images? Or does Time Machine lump everything into one? Anyone who can answer these questions would be greatly appreciated : )

I think that's it. I did some searching for you and found "A USB drive, directly attached to your iMac's USB port, must be formatted in HFS+ and non-booting for Time Machine to "see" it." So if that is your situation... For further reference check: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8924677

Connect the iPhone to a computer running iTunes and use iTunes on that
computer to restore as a new iPhone which will wipe current content.

I was able to copy all my files from my Time Capsule, but that is all they are...files. How do I get my new Mac Mini to emulate my other Mac?

Doggiemommie,
Copying files is not a good idea.
The "other Mac" was backed up onto Time Capsule using the Time Machine. On your new Mac you should restore the old user - rather than copy files manually.
This usually happens during the initial setup of the new computer or you can do it later using Migration Assistant.
Please note, it is possible to damage backup file on the Time Capsule when you browse it and copy files manually.
Hope this explains.

ICloud password works on everything but erasing all data. I got a new iPhone and need to wipe this one but am not sure how else to do this since the password is not working. Any suggestions?

Firefox also makes regular backups of your bookmarks in a folder named bookmarkbackups in your personal settings folder. You can restore the backup to your new Firefox, but unlike importing the HTML-format file, it is a complete drop-in replacement, so if you have saved new bookmarks you do not want to lose, the export/import method may work better for you.
By default, Windows hides your personal settings folder so the easiest way to access it is from inside Firefox. You can use either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This will launch a window showing your Firefox settings files.
You might want to back up this whole folder if you have other data you want to preserve from your XP computer.
Either way, you should find the bookmarkbackups folder here and when you click into it, find maybe 10 files with dates in their names.
The procedure to restore the file once you have it on removable media or some other convenient place is described in this article: [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]].
Regarding the other files and what you might find of use: [[Recovering important data from an old profile]].
