Lenovo ideapad s405 touchpad mouse problem

Hi to all
I bought this laptop a week ago and I installed windows 8 pro edition
I have a problem: when I press a button in the keyboard I can't move the touchpad (so I can't use,for example,games because I can't move the the view of the character)
What can I do? There aren't problems when I push CTRL or ALT or buttons that don't write something.Thanks

hi Razorbacktrack,
Your issue might be similar to this thread.
If your PC came with a Synaptics Touchpad, can you try to:
1. Go to the Control Panel (large icon view) then > click Mouse > Device Settings tab > Settings
2. Under the Synaptics Settings, go to Pointing > Sensitivity > Palmcheck and set the palm sensitivity to minimum and test the game.

If you have an ELAN touchpad, try to:
3. Adjust the PalmTracking option under Additional Tab on the ELAN Smart Pad settings to the minimum (see spoiler)
4.If same problem, press WindowsKey+R then type appwiz.cpl. From the program list, uninstall lenovo pointing device, reboot.the PC and test (you can re-install this later by nagvigating to D:\Drivers\Touchpad).
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
Let me know your findings.
Cheers

  • Lenovo IdeaPad U510 touchpad scrolling with 2 fingers

    Hello. I bought a lenovo ideapad u 510 yesterday and I think I have a problem. whenever i try scrolling with 2 fingers i have to press harder than when i am simply just moving the pointer with 1 finger. is this normal? on my old laptop i didn't had to press harder with 2 fingers, but here if i don't the touchpad thinks i am using just one.

    This is your second post : "PS: i donwloaded the latest drivers from elan website and I also edited the sensitivity to light touch which is maximum."
    So which touchpad do you really have? Elan or Synaptic?

  • Lenovo ideapad s405

    My ideapad s405 is not booting up. I have tried removing battery and disconnecting power cord, holding down power button for 10 seconds and reconnecting just the power cord. This does not work, only a Lenovo name is showing on display, this has been like this for 24+ hours so far without any change.

    DW,
    I've replied on some of your other threads - we'll try to make further suggestions here, but you may also want to contact service.  I think you indicate it just fell out of warranty.  We can look into the situation and see what can be done.
    So, the system is hung on the Lenovo screen every time you start up correct?
    If you press F1 can you get into BIOS?
    Can you press F12 to get a boot device list?  If so, is the HDD shown?   If the boot device list comes up, then maybe the system board is OK and if the HDD is not shown, then perhaps that is the problem.  If you can't get the list, then maybe a probably with the system board.
    I would also check your USB ports to see if any are broken.   On some ThinkPads, if a port was broken and the plastic rectangular piece was broken out of it, the 4 pins left could wind up shorting out which would cause a hung on ThinkPad screen.
    Let us know the outcome and perhaps the community can help you figure this out.
    Best regards,

  • Lenovo Ideapad S400 touchpad stoped working

    My touchpad stoped working and need help

    Update! 
    This is by no means solved, but I do think it's >improved<.
    I found a newer driver (v. 11.4.7.1). The mouse pointer still has some delay, but it isn't as unbearable as it was before. I do find that the left click "button" is not always reliable (the single tapping is more reliable). But it's better and corroborates my thought that this is mainly a software issue. I also disabled all the multi-finger functions.
    The link for the new driver is here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032199

  • Lenovo Ideapad u400 6470M driver problems Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit HELP

    I bought this lenovo u400 like 2 years ago and i had no problems, but now my SSD went dead and i bought another, after the replacement i just installed the original windows 7 64 bit home premium, put my notebook's serial installed all the drivers, and when i install the Ati driver from Lenovo my pc gets stuck in a black screen with a white line on the top left of my screen, when i do FN+F8 while booting and start window's safe mode and i go to the device manager i see this ones: 6470M and Intel HD graphics family, when i disable intel hd graphics family my pc boots up normally but the resolution is 800x600 and the max is 1024x768, If i install the Intel 3000 HD my 6470m appears with a yellow triangle on the device manager, i've tried almost 30 different drivers from leshcat, hp, dell, lenovo and AMD's webpage, none of them work, and when i go to the CCC it just lists the intel 3000.
    Sorry for my bad english, im from Argentina, Lenovo's support on argentina sucks, last time i've sent it it costed a lot of money, they scratched multiple parts on my laptop and didn't fix most of my problems, and i can't get the One Key backup anywhere, pls help, atleast AND IF ANYONE WITH A LENOVO U400 WITH WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM IS READING THIS AND HIS 6470M DRIVER IS WORKING, PLEASE CONTACT ME.
    Lenovo, please, don't give me a crappy answer and most of times when that answer does not fix the problem then you give up and don't reply anymore. Im getting sick, i got this laptop for doing 3D modeling, video editing and multiple more and i just can't go and buy another, things are really expensive in Argentina.

    welcome to the community.
    i would recommend that you call Service to request a factory recovery dvd set.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad V460 Wireless connection problem

    Hi, this is my first post and one of my most frustrating problems, l have brought the laptop for nearly a year now and l notice a problem with my wireless connections, it was either windows resetting the wireless card or there are a problem with the card it self, l think, the problem is solved once l restart the computer but never lasted, can u tell me whats possibly wrong with step by step solution on how to solve this, thanks in advance

    hey andrew5s,
    try uninstalling the wireless driver for your unit, let windows install its generic driver.
    test your wireless with the generic driver.
    later go to : http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/DriversDow​nloads/drivers_list.aspx?CategoryID=287385
    and install the wifi driver that is available here. test your connection again

  • Lenovo ideapad s400 switchable graphics problem..!

    Simply the switchable graphic ia not working on my device. Is there anyone who solved this issue? I fed up with sending my laptop to service. They say ' you have no problem about graphic card ' The second graphic card has not been working since we bought the computer. ??? I will use that comp. for experimantel porpuses: ) Because it is useless with the onboard graphic card.

    hi kuraysi,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Just to check, if you boot in Safe Mode, are you able to load Windows? If booting to Safe Mode works, perform a clean boot and observe. This will isolate any possible 3rd party software that might be inteferring with the Windows startup.
    If that doesn't work and Windows is hanging up on the loading screen then we're probably looking at a corrupted Windows file or a bad hardware. In this case, you may need to:
    1. Reload the system via the OneKey Recovery (note that all ways on the OS partition will be wiped)
    2. If reloading Windows doesn't work or the machine freezes up then you're prolly looking at a bad hardware (possibly the HDD).
    Let me know how it goes.
    Regards

  • Lenovo IdeaPad v560 Network Printer problem

    Good morning,  I am connecting wirelessly to a Canon imagerunner and the computer will install properly to the printer, but the printer constantly says offline and any other printer that I try to connect to.  The other computers on the network, print to the Canon and Sharp printers just fine, but recently it completely reads every printer as offline.  Has this happened to anyone else?

    hi uchm12,
    first of all, which model of canon printer are you using?
    secondly, have you tried to setup the printer by using the disks provided?

  • Lenovo Ideapad N585 - Reverting Changes Problem

    I'm trying to install my windows updates. I restart my laptop, gets to about 95%, "Failure Installing Update, Reverting Changes. Please Wait." I wait. 2-3 hours later, it's finished. I try again. Gets upto about 95%. "Failure Installing Update, Reverting Changes. Please Wait." I wait. about a week later, after going through with a troubleshooter from Window's website. Gets upto 95%. "Failure Installing Updates, Reverting Changes, Please Wait." This is getting BEYOND BEYOND BEYOND frustrating. I seriously want some advice, I beg of you. I need to install these updates to update to 8.1, and it's getting EXTREMELY frustrating. If you need any information about anything, lemme know.
    Thanks in advance.

    There might be some corrupted system files so try this under command prompt with admin rights:
    sfc /scannow
    If the checker cannot make the repair of the errors found do this under command prompt with admin rights:
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
    You must be connected to the internet to perform the dism command and note the space for each /switch command.
    Thereafter a reboot is needed.

  • Exhausted of my Lenovo ideapad

    In Lenovo Ideapad Z80,Touchpad was not working after 4 months of purchase. After complaining several times a technician came after one and half month and couldn't solve, aslo created a new problem of led light buttons not working. The second technician came after 15 days and again unable to resolve it. Now the third one came after 1month and while resolving it he has created multiple issues. It is a seer waste of time and this is the 3rd time that the technician is unable to resolve all the problem and creating new issues everytime. I'm totally tired of them. This issue is pending for about 3 months. Please let me know how could I complain to higher authority.

    @ hankc1949
    Im from the philippines also, i have been to the service center several times already for various issues and my k1 is barely 2 months old. for 490$ you paid, that is really annoying to get a replacement k1 unit just to say you have you have a barely running/useful unit. Thats horrible support and excuse.
    My thoughts on this is that its going to take sometime for a fully working motherboard replacement to arrive so they gave a you replacement that is barely usefull and has issues itself so that it will take you off their back while you agonizingly wait for your replacement. And you cant demand a exteneion of warrant since you have technicaly a running unit. why dont they just wait for the replacement motherboard to arrive and give your k1 fully working if the time to get one is reasonable? So far giving you a defective unit as a replacement is causing you more aggravation and frustration than just waiting for a decent replacement motherboard.
    You cant also escalate the issue to consumer protection agencies because you were technically issued a temporary replacement. Which technically is not the same one as you paid form in terms of quality and function.
    You need to go to the lenovo philippines face book page and strongly complain and express your issues. It gets their attention due to the bad rep and cut your waiting time alot because they will take notice and personally contact you.

  • Ideapad S405 Touch Sensitive Mouse Buttons

    Hi
    I have recently bought an Ideapad S405.
    I have noticed that the area for left and right mouse buttons is also touch sensitive.
    Because of it the mouse moves a bit whenever I press the left or the right mouse button.
    This is quite a bit irritating for me.
    Any solutions ??
    Regards
    Hitesh

    Hi Hitesh,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    I’m sorry to hear that the touchpad buttons are sensitive and move the cursor while the buttons are pressed. Hence, I would suggest you to change the settings of “Edge Motion Region” to resolve this issue. To perform this, please perform till the 3rd step from the below link and then click on Pointer Motion> Edge Motion Region>Then set the region so that it will not affect the touchpad buttons. Please let me know the findings:
    How to access Touchpad Settings?
    Do post us back if the issue persists.
    Best Regards

  • Ideapad U510 Touchpad problem

    I have bought a lenovo ideapad u510 a week before. From the very begining I am facing toucpad problem, The cursor jumps everywhere in the screen and make automatic selection all by itself. I am totally unable to control the cursor.
    I have tried installing Synaptics driver after unistalling default Elan driver, but it wasn't solved a bit. I have tried by changing various options from the  Elan menu, also disabled 'Multi-finger' option.
    I have bought it from Canada but now I'm far away from there. So if anyone knows the solution please help me.

    Please reinstall your default touchpad driver (ELAN). According to Elan: The main cause of unexpected cursor moving or click is the accidental palm contact with the touch pad. You can adjust your Palm Tracking setting to maximum to make your touch pad insensitive to "palm contacts"

    @unick,
    Have you tried doing a factory restore? Did you have this issue when you first have the laptop? I understand you wrote that this issue came after 2 weeks? Is there any antivirus software which you have installed? Appreciate if you could try a factory recovery first if you haven't done so.
