All in one sidebar gadget...???

Where can I download the "all-in-one" vista sidebar gadget that came on my new W700? Just for clarity, i'm not talking about the single power manager or access connection gadgets. The one i'm referring to has them all built into a single gadget. See picture link here...

I did a clean install... I have all the drivers and apps from the download site, but I cannot find that gadget anywhere.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Its called the ThinkVantge Status Gadget and as far as I'm aware is only available on Lenovo factory OS distributions.
Its in one of the distributed software image directories on the factory build, so if you still have an accessible copy of the your original factor image installed on a disk, you can just copy it out of the approrpiate sub-directory.

I can't open the all-in-one sidebar

my sidebar was working just fine. Now today I can't open it. I usually just left-click on the left side of the screen, but that doesn't work any more.

Hi,
If the sidebar came with an extension, you can Reset Firefox, install the extension first before installing others, and check. This would also hopefully help with the normal sidebar.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

How can I uninstall all-in-one side bar and fully deactivate "LyricSing"?

The "all-in-one sidebar" function offers a redundant and confusing capability which consumes valuable display real estate on my old (and small) monitor. The result is that it makes several important sites essentially unusable. Please help me get rid of it on Firefox 31.0 or allow reversion to an older Firefox version which doesn't include it.
Similarly, "LyricSing" both consumes display real estate and acts as like a super pop-up generator. The "deactivate" path and the "current state" switch does not function on my XP based system.
I strongly dislike (I'm trying to be nice) IE and Chrome! Please help!

You can uninstall extensions that you no longer need or want to use.

*You can toggle the History sidebar on/off via "View > Sidebar > History" or "Ctrl+H" (Command+H on Mac)
Current Firefox releases have a "Show > Sidebars" button in the Customize palette as this function is also in the Bookmarks and History drop-down list buttons (the latter in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button list).

Windows 7/Vista Sidebar Gadget for SAP

Sidebar Gadget for SAP
Windows 7/ Vista Sidebar (Link: http://vista.gallery.microsoft.com/vista/SideBar.aspx?mkt=en-us) can be used to interface with SAP, to show data right on the user's desktop. This allows the user to constantly monitor different SAP values and act accordingly. The parameters which people would like to monitor can be of wide range. For eg., a Basis person may want to monitor SAP system performance, while the business executives may want to know Today's sales.
Example
What I have done here, is to create a similar gadget for Windows Vista, which can talk to a custom SAP BSP, and show data real-time on user's desktop. The example here shows how to monitor SAP system performance.
Creating the BSP
Since sidebar gadgets can show only a small amount of area, you have to design the BSP page, to fit in that small area. Here I have created a BSP page which fits within a 130*185 sq.pixels area. My BSP page is created without the <head> section, just with the <body>.
Link: http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/3125/bsponinternetexplorer.jpg
Creating the gadget
The gadget was created from the basic example shown in MSDN site.
Link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa965850(VS.85).aspx
How it looks on desktop
After these files were created, they were put into the user's gadget folder. The gadget was added on to the sidebar and it looks as follows.

To the forum moderator: I tried to post this in Wiki, but I couldn't find button, which will help me to Add this stuff. Hence posting the information in the forum. Please move this information, to Wiki, if you feel that is the right place.

Hi Juwin,
first of all let me say "Good Job", even if the last link (the one about the complete gadget) does not work.
Anyway: why don't you write an [Article|ABAP Frequently Asked Questions]?
According to me your idea is not only good as usability, but also as business case and could be the ideal case for an "How To" article, like the one ([Getting SAP to talk to Google Gadgets|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/70ed80f3-5964-2e10-90b9-e833ade5e8c5]) recently published by Patrick Dean.

Vista Sidebar Gadgets not working with iTunes

I've tried several different Gadgets, tried reinstalling iTunes 8, tried clean installs of all of them...
no third-party controller app seems to be able to interface with iTunes. i have iTunes running, but none of the iTunes controller Gadgets recognize it or are able to control it.
Any thoughts? I had this problem with 7.7 as well.

I have the same exact problem. Not one of the many sidebar gadgets seem to recognize iTunes. I assume it's some kind of registry error but have no idea. Anyone have a solution to this?

TS1453 Apple TV doesn't show up in my iTunes. I've done all the troubleshooting steps, updated all software, restarted Apple TV, wireless router and computer. Devices doesn't show up at all in my sidebar.Apple TV doesn't show up in preferences

Help. My Apple TV won't sync with my computer. I've done all the troubleshooting tips, but Apple TV doesn't show up in my Preferences under devices.
2. Reconnect Apple TV to iTunes.
Choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (Windows), click Apple TV, and make sure "Look for Apple TVs" is selected.
I see no option to select "look for Apple TV's" in Preferences, and there is no device list at all in my sidebar.
3. If Firewall is on in Mac OS X (in the Sharing pane of System Preferences), make sure iTunes Music Sharing is selected.
There is no option to select iTunes Music Sharing in my System Preferences - see screenshot
I've updated all software, restarted Apple TV, my wireless router, and my computer. Both my computer and the Apple TV are connected to the same wireless network and both are operating properly. They just wont connect to each other.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

FIRSTLY: bookmark following for further reference (it describes basic setup, both to link for syncing and to stream - from any computer.)
Apple TV (1st generation): Differences between syncing and streaming" )
Now as to your problem: If you check under "Computers" in the "Settings" menu you will most likely see the name of your iTunes library Greyed out. IF that's the case, you'll basically need to re-setup your ATV., you can do so as follows (instructions are intentionally over described, but basically your disconnecting then reconnecting your ATV1. Downside (which seems to come with all methods is that you'll have to resync all your media)
**A (not ideal but effective solution)
If ATV 1 had been working but suddenly 'disappeared" from iTunes sidebar
The following solution will almost surely work to regain your ability to Sync:
QUIT iTunes
Select "Computers" from "Settings" Menu.
Select your "greyed out" iTunes library.
This will bring up a window named "Disconnect from iTunes"
You're now given the choice to Cancel, or disconnect. WITH THE WARNING that if you disconnect any content synced with iTunes, will be erased. (in fact it will be removed from your ATV but not your computer)
Assuming ALL of your media IS on your computer, Go ahead and disconnect.
Follow instructions in the Apple doc above about setting up your ATV as a paired computer.
After you ATV gen1 reappears in the sidebar. Reset all your desired syncing preferences,
Begin syncing.
All will be fine again, (at least till the next time this occurs.) I've had to do this twice this year.
ALTERNATELY:
SHARING (a QUICKER, less destructive TEMPORARY solution (if you just want to play your media now)
You CAN set your computer to Share by following instructions in the same doc under the heading:
"How to connect to a shared computer"
HOWEVER, this will not allow you to sync info.
I've read alternate solutions on this board, one involved changing the name of your iTunes Library etc... you may wish to try this first (if it applies) https://discussions.apple.com/message/17943841?ac_cid=142432#17943841
What I'd like to know: What causes this problem... I'm suspecting iTunes updates, or any iTunes database issues or crashes. Or maybe too many visitors connecting to your other Apple devices (ATV 2 for example) or heck the weather in Guatemala...

10.5.1 broke wireless printing to HP 6210 All In One

That's my educated guess.
I got a MacBook in Nov. last year. It came with 10.5 pre-installed.
I disconnected my existing HP 6210 All In One from my wife's blueberry iMac and plugged it into the USB port on our Airport Express.
Wireless printing worked two or three times. We don't print that much or that often. I was so excited that we could print wirelessly.
At some point I installed to 10.5.1. Pretty soon actually. Probably less than a month after getting the computer. I'm almost 100% positive that it was AFTER that point that this problem started happening and I've installed 10.5.2 (which was supposed to fix wireless printing issues.) It's still happening. Here's what happens.
• While connected to the Aiport Express, The printer shows up in the list or printers. Several times I've deleted it and re-added it since this problem started. It shows up as a BonJour printer and it's the only way one can add it. The Mac even picks the right driver.
• System preferences shows the printer in the printer list, and it shows a green light next to it, and it says "Ready, Idle" (or something to that effect.)
• I send a print order from say, Safari.
• The print queue for the HP opens.
• The print queue shows "Opening printer connection" and "Connecting" and it stays like that for a long time until the queue stops itself. The "Pause printer" button turns into "Resume".
• If, while the print queue is trying to connect, one plugs in an Ethernet cable into the MacBook, the printer all of a sudden begins printing any and all print orders in the queue. Note that the Ethernet cable is connected to the same Ethernet hub as the Airport Express.
• One could also send print orders while the Ethernet cable is connected, and this works just fine, but that's not the problem.
• If, while the print queue is trying to connect, one plugs in the USB cable that is connected to the printer directly into the MacBook, this does absolutely nothing. The print queue just hangs.
• I went to the HP website, and downloaded what appears to be a new set of drivers, and setup software. Installation went fine, BUT I could not "set up" the printer until I connected the USB cable that is connected to the printer directly into the MacBook. Again, that's not the problem.
• The HP website also says that Mac OS X 10.5 has the necessary drivers and no installation is needed.
• The HP website also has a page that lists instructions to set up an HP device on a Wireless network. The instructions involve making sure that the device is set up for wireless capabilities, and connecting to it via BonJour and some other stuff. I can't get very far into this process, because I've been over all the menu options on the printer itself and I can't see anything about wireless setup. I've also looked at the manual (PDF) and there's only one single occurrence of the word "wireless" and it has nothing to do with setup. I forget what it's about right now. It's on the second to last page or somewhere near the very end.
• So that's where I am right now. New drivers, no printing. It worked with 10.5 and I strongly suspect that 10.5.1 broke it. And that 10.5.2 did not fix it at all.
• I would like to test my theory by reverting to 10.5 but I've already had to re-install the OS once and recover from a backup once after re-formatting the internal HD. Better not mess with that.
Any comments and/or questions that would help me fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Good news. It appears to be fixed!
Of all the things I've done, I'm convinced that what fixed it was resetting the printing system. A forum linked to from another place I posted this question mention that it helped others. I found how to reset the printing system in Leopard by searching for it online.
I went to System Preferences > Print & Fax and right clicked on the left had sidebar. The contextual menu had the command "Reset Printing System". This warned me that it would delete all my printers. I said OK. Sure enough all my printers were gone.
For good measure, did the following:
- I re-installed the new HP software.
- I re-set up the HP 6210 while connected directly through USB using the HP setup Assistant. This process adds the printer both as a printer and as a Fax in System Preferences > Print & Fax.
- I opened the print queue and the utility and print a test page using this direct method.
- I disconnected the HP 6210 from the computer and connected it to the Airport Express.
- I went back to System Preferences > Print & Fax and clicked on the plus sign to add another printer
- (additional note) In the resulting dialog box, I tried adding the printer as an IP printer (using the Airport Express' IP address) but for some reason could not find the right driver (I was looking for one with the term "OfficeJet"--more on that below). I picked a different driver knowingly and got a weird message about the software being incomplete. Sure enough, printing to this new printer added this way with the wrong driver did not work at all. I decided to try the OS's own automatic way to add the printer (see below).
- In that same dialog window referenced above, I clicked on the leftmost icon (I think it says "Default") and the (at this point wireless) printer was already on the list as a BonJour printer. I made sure to give it a different name than the already added, direct USB connected (same) printer by adding the word "wireless" so in the printer list and print dialing windows and it's print queue it's called "HP OfficeJet 6200 Series wireless" as opposed to "HP OfficeJet 6200 Series" which is the original direct connected (same) printer. And the driver the OS picked automatically is "HP All In One 5.3.1" (as far I can remember--it could be something a little different).
- I sent a print order from Safari, and boom! I started to print almost immediately! After about 5 minutes, I sent it again, and it printed again! Then I printed page one of an email from Mail, and it worked again!
- So far so good. We'll see if this holds up.
Thanks for all the comments, suggestions and links that helped me (apparently) solve this.

All in One devices

I have just purchased a Kodak ESP 5 All in One due to good reviews in Mac mags & The Gadget Show.
Unfortunately they did not mention that it is quite useless on a Mac. I installed it on my old Windows laptop to print some files, all great scanning software OCR etc.
Installed on my IMac, 230MB, and its just a driver. It prints ok but if I want to scan I have to use controls on printer so scan is full scan, no cropping, previews etc. Total waist, I know will have to use my laptop windows machine to do scanning and transfer to IMac. Why dont the magazines say this?
It would appear I would be better off using Imac money to buy a high end PC. Contacted Kodak who said I would have to get third party software. Appears that the Mac should be avoided by casual users & left to design houses etc.
Or have I missed something, ILife, Open Office wont scan, is there any FREE software available?
Any advice appri'

I think the error was buying a product not designed for Macs, I would return it. Before making your next purchase do a little due diligence to see if what you want is OS X compatible. This is simple if you are in a store, it will be printed right on the box. Kodak isn't exactly top of the line and despite their current advertising campaign (at least here in the US) the print quality is poor, supplies run out with over 40% of the ink left in them (meaning you're wasting over 40% of the ink) and they're not even OS X compatible.
Personally I'm a fan of HP printers and have had nothing but good luck with all of the printers I have connected to my iMac which include 2 wireless AIOs, a color LaserJet and monochrome LaserJet. Others on this forum have had great success with Canon, Epson and Brother AIOs.

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album?

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album? I was trying to move several albums onto a USB drive and it stated all other files exist at this location. They are pictures taken at different times and have the same number I guess.

In iPhoto albums may contain photos with the same file name - iPhoto handles that just fine
If you are exporting them to move somewhere else use the sequential file name feature of export to give each file a unique name

How can I use Active Print on my Ipad and print to my usb connected HP officejet 6110 all in one

I was previously able to use Active Print on my Ipod to print to my usb connected HP officejet 6110 all in one. Now, however, with my Ipad version 2 I can no longer get this to work. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hi,
HP do not provide any USB connection solution for iOS.
As Active Print is a 3rd party application which provide this functionality, i believe you may find a better help within Active Print support as they more familier with their application requirement and functionality:

Not going to happen the way you want it to.
When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

Photosmart Premium All in One Blue screen error B882B1C4

I have recently purchased a Photosmart Premium All in One C309G machine which is connected via a USB cable to the PC. When I try to use it wirelessly it produces a blue screen with an error message B882B1C4 as soon as I switch on the BT hub. HP haven't been able to sort out the problem as I am now in receipt of the 4th replacement . Can anyone suggest a solution please? I have a BT1800HG wireless hub connected with an ethernet cable to my HP PC.

This is posted in your separate thread:
Hey there. I would try a power reset to fix the issue.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn off the product.
NOTE:The product might not turn off after pressing the Power button. Continue to the next step regardless.
Disconnect the power cord from the back of the product.
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, and then wait 30 seconds.
Connect the power cord to the electrical outlet.
Connect the power cord to the back of the product.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn on the product.
If this does not solve the issue then the printer will most likely need to be serviced.Hope this helps!

All in One Printer no longer scanning (C5280)

I have an oldish printer/scanner that was working fine until I downloaded the update that came from HP on Aug. 13th. Since then, I cannot scan. I got an error message that the machine was disconnected from the computer which made no sense since I can print from the computer just fine. I did all the things the error message suggested: rebooting, disconnecting the cable, redownloading the driver. The machine worked for about 5 pages of the scan after the redownload, then conked out again.
I saw some directions about going into the registry editor window but they were for Windows 7 and below. I have Windows 8. I did not see a folder for Digital Imaging in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/H-P
If there are updated directions for Windows 8, pleae let me know.
I have an All in One Printer (C5280)

Hello @Toonces , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are experiencing scan issues. I would like to try and help.
I would suggest Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once it is uninstalled, I would suggest putting your system into clean boot mode within the Microsoft configuration. You can do so by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest reinstalling the HP Photosmart C5200 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
