Windows 7 does not recognize either new HD or returned old HD

Notebook G61 overheated and shut down. System Mechanic said HD was near failure, so I replaced it. Startup disk selected the proper system image and wanted to restore, but hit error code. 0x80042414, saying Windows did not find any disk which it can use for recreating volumes present in backup. ... So I replaced the old HD, the startup disk began, selected the system image to restore, and I got the same msg. So now I have nothing to use, as it will not recognize either HD

Hey Barbara_,
First I would like to welcome you to the HP Forums!
Since you replaced your hard drive, and is not being seen. Plus getting the error 0x80042414, usually means that the hard drive you are trying to write to has not been formatted properly. I have included a link to the following thread, 'Can Windows 7 System Image able to restore to a new HDD?'. This thread has several different options for hopefully resolving the issue.
If you are still experiencing the issue, please let me know the new type of hard drive that you have purchased, and who the manufacturer is.
Looking forward to working with!

Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) HELP!

Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) and requires the password to do anything. Everytime I go onto the ICloud page it shows my old email and requires the password, but I can't exactly type in a password because that won't work. I can't find a way to change my email or delete ICloud.

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, do the following:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

Windows does not recognize ipod whatsoever

This is so frustrating.
I just bought a new ipod video after giving up on my old ipod.
Windows does not recognize the new ipod at all, not even as an extra drive. I'm tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything, restoring the ipod, connecting to different ports. No such luck. I've read up on the past posts concerning this problem with no luck.
Can anyone help me?

here's a bit here's what microsotft says:
To resolve this problem, delete the UpperFilters registry value and the LowerFilters registry value. These values may cause access problems. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit , and then click OK.
2. Locate and then click the UpperFilters registry value. This value is located in the following registry subkey:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E980-E325 11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
3. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
4. Locate and then click the LowerFilters registry value. This value is located in the following registry subkey:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10 318}
5. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
6. Exit Registry Editor.
7. Restart the computer.

HT1369 Brand new computer with Windows 8.1 will not sync with iPod Classic 120G. Windows does not recognize anything but iPod Touch? Is there a simple sloution?

Brand new computer with Windows 8.1 will not sync to iPod Classic 120G. Windows does not recognize anything but iPod Touch? Is there a simple solution. Diagnostics have run and failed to point to a fix.

Might be worth tearing down the whole iTunes install and starting over...
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

Windows says "device is not functioning" and "Windows does not recognize"

I lost my USB dock connector cable for my ipod. I just went out today and bought a brand new "Cygnett GrooveLink Strech Retractable USB Cable for iPod". I was pumped when I came home to finally be able to add music to my ipod again, but alas when I plug the iPod in, Windows pops up saying that the device is not functional and that Windows does not recognize it. I tried everything from rebooting the iPod to re-downloading iTunes and iPod updater. After searching this site for the past few hours, I figured I'd try and possibly find some real answers here. Please Help!!

Hey everyone,
I had the same problems all of you are having. I
just got a 5th generation video ipod. For a few
days, my computer a) wouldn't recognize it; b) froze
up when I connected it; c) mistook it for a mass
storage device ("drive E"). I bought a USB 2.0
notebook card which didn't work either and actually
seemed to make the problem worse because when I
connected the iPod to it my computer froze up.
I was very confused because my new iPod worked on my
brother's computer--which is much older than mine but
still recognized the iPod and connected to it.
Then I noticed that my brother's computer is running
an older version of the ipod software. I used his
disk to install "Ipod Updater 2005-06-26" rather than
the new version of the software on the Apple Web
site. Then I plugged my iPod into a USB 1.1 port.
To my surprise, my computer finally recognized the
iPod and is now loading music onto it. I cannot
believe this worked. I wonder if the latest version
of the software is faulty in some way.
Try it! I hope it will work for you too. You will
need an older version of the iPod updater software,
so borrow it from a friend with an older ipod.
I am having this problem also...It will work fine on the 1.1 but when i plug it into the 2.0 it has trouble recognizing it...

USB device (1 day old nano) has malfunctioned & windows does not recognize

Please can someone help a non-tech savy new ipod user. I have loaded the latest itunes, but not only does itunes not see my ipod, I get the following windows error when I plug it in. "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it". It says no drivers are loaded for this device. I have followed the 5Rs including the windows updates with no luck. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

You listed as having an IBM r40. If I'm not mistaken, that's a laptop. The usb ports on many laptops aren't USB 2.0 or are low power ones. This can cause problems with a nano being able to charge.
One thing to try is to get a wall adapter to charge the nano separately, then connect to your computer for syncing only. You can find adapters locally and through Apple Store. http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=C39 415D1&nclm=iPodPower
You can also try buying a POWERED usb hub. Make sure it has it's own power source so that its ports have enough charge to support the nano.

Windows does not recognize my BlackBerry

I have a new BlackBerry Curve 8530 from Boost Mobile, it is running v5.0.0.654 (Bundle 1108, Platform 4.2.0.298) I installed the Desktop Manager that came with the phone, once I started it - it updated to the lates version (6.0.1) I have a 4gig micro sd card installed (not the original) Everything works fine other than when I connect the phone to my pc. Windows does not recognize my phone in explorer - it does see it in the device manager along with an yellow exclamation point under mass storage device - my pc is running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit - I have tried BlackBerry Media Sync (3.0) and BlackBerry Desktop Manager both with the same end result. I have tried different USB ports, i have yet to try a different cable as this one does charge the phone when connected to the pc. I have yet to try another pc, I am not worried about syncing my contacts or email settings,,,i would just like to transfer music and video....I have the mass storage mode on and the media transfer protocol on, i have the auto enable MSM set to prompt so I can choose when connected. I work in the IT field so the fact that I can not figure this out on my own is rather frustrating.....any help so that i can resolve this issue will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you -

Are you using the cord that was supplied with your phone? Some USB cords transmit power but not data and that could be the case here. And I'm not talking about a cord that came with any BlackBerry phone, I'm talking about the cord that came with YOUR Q10.
Cheers.

Windows does not recognize driver for pci-4461

Hello,I am currently running windows xp with labview 7.0 on my computer. Recently trying purchased and trying to install PCI-4461 Audio Analyzer PC card. I downloaded the latest driver 9.0.2 off the NI website. After the install I verified the driver exist by using the Measurement & Automation tool. However, window does not recognize any driver for the hardware. When I point it to the directory where the driver is "suppose" to exist, windows gives me an error message saying that the driver does not exist or is corrupted. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. Has anyone ran into this problem and can give me some advise? I know that the version on DAQmx 9.0.2 is not compatible with the version of labView I am running. However it should not affect windows from locating and installing hardware. Thank you,Ruth

Hi Ruth,
Did you install the PCI-4461 card in your computer before or after you installed the DAQmx 9.0.2 drivers? It would be best to install the drivers first and then the card. Windows XP will pop up the New Hardware Wizard, saying it detected new hardware. Click Next, and then to Search for Drivers Automatically. Do not try to navigate and select the appropriate driver folder. As long as the drivers are installed correctly Windows will be able to find the correct driver automatically.
You can also remove the PCI-4461 card and try it in a different PCI slot. This will cause the new hardware wizzard to appear on the next restart.

One Device has malfunctiond & WIndows does not Recognize

Getting beyond Frustrated. Bought 2gb Nano today (noon) now 730 and I still have not been able to use it. I keep getting a message that says "One Device has malfunctiond & WIndows does not Recognize, Clickon this window". NO LUCK. I have reset, Reinstalled software, My Ipod is not showing up in my Itunes. I have also changed the power settings under device manager. HELP PLEASE

As it is new it could be a hardware problem. Is it possible for you to try the iPod on another PC. If not I'd suggest that you:
a) make sure the iPod is fully charged,
b) use a different USB port (if your laptop has more than one).
c) if you have any other USB devices connected (or a USB hub) disconnect all but the iPod.
d) if none of the above work try apple's 5Rs.
e) put the iPod into self-diagnostic mode (method for doing this varies between iPod types you'll need to use the apple website to find the right method for your iPod).
Of course if you are close to an apple shop it may be easier for you to get them to check your iPod.

I got an iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. I updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone.

I upgraded from Iphone 3g to iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. the **** thing with the new iphone 4. I bought and updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone before it will sync! It says everything on the phone now will be cleared in order to sync it with my existing info on the computer from my previous iphone. How can I just get everything from my current iphone 4 into itunes, basically add it to the info from my previous iphone 3g that is currently in my itunes? I dont want to lose what I have on my phone currently....I paid money for half the apps for crying out loud.
I was so frustrated by this when I first bought the phone that I just pushed it out of my mind and NEVER synced it. Please help...

Nope - you cannot restore a backup from a newer iOS version on to a device running an older iOS version. The reverse works, but in your case to use your backup, you must update to iOS 7.0.3 - no other option if you want to use that backup.

Icloud does not recognize my new ID & i can not use icloud to delete the account for a new one

i cloud does not recognize my new Apple ID on my mini ipad i had no problem with mac book & iphone only with the ipad

Did you change the assigned email address of your account before you tried to change it on the iPad? If yes then you would have to change the ID back to the old email address, then sign out, then change it back to the new address and then sign in again.
