Any Issues with X250 and Using 3 Monitors?

With input from this forum, I went ahead and ordered an X250.  ETA first week of April.  Thank you... (ask me in May if I am still as grateful   )
My plan is to also purchase an Ultra dock and use the screen on the notebook as well as two external displays.  I did some research and understand certain video ports take priority over others, but this should no be an issue.
After reading another thread (here) I am concerned this setup may not be as reliable as one would hope.  I realize the thread references an X240 (not an X250), but would like to know if others have a 3 display setup with the X250 and if they enountered any issues?
Thanks again.  This group has provided a wealth of information that has essentially kept me in the Lenovo camp.  I currently use a W520 and was pretty close to moving another manufacturer altogether.
Solved!

Hi Technobob,
I'm using a ThinkPad X240 daily on a ThankPad Ultra Dock with two 1920x1080 DisplayPort monitors simultaneously with the X240 LCD. Also have an X250 which occasionally gets plugged in to the same dock and all three monitors work, no issues.
Hope this helps!
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • Any issues with PE7 and Windows 7?

    Hi All,
    I am considering purchasing a second computer. I have had great success with PE7 and Vista, But I can't get Vista on the new Alienware I want to buy. So, has anyone  had any issues with PE7 and Windows 7? I have read many posts where there are issues with PE8 and Windows7.
    Thanks, Stan

    It's a toshiba laptop.
    4 gig DDR3
    core duo
    320 hard drive - partitioned
    I also use a dual screen - 22" lcd monitor
    I don't use it a lot, since I have a desktop.   I've noticed having a
    dedicated video card makes a world of difference in editing.  This might be
    your problem; a dedicated high end video card is the way to go.
    If I do simple compilations I don't have any problems.  I usaully am making
    a DVD of soccer games.  If there is a lot of special effects I'll use my
    desktop that has XP.

  • Looking at a Canon GL2, any issues with compatibility? Using FC 6

    Subject says it all. Im looking at getting my friends canon gl2, any issues with capturing in final cut pro 6?
    Thanks,

    The GL2 is rock solid for a good MiniDV camera and plays 100% well with my setup FCPS 6.0.3. I've heard and read the threads about Canon and Firewire but have not experienced issues at all with my workflow. I have used it as a deck in a pinch but I will also say that I use a deck most often these days.
    I'll second all of this...but I'm also from Bothell, so maybe it's a geographical anomaly

  • Issue with dock and dual monitors

    After unplugging my MacBook (Late 2008) from my Samsung External Monitor, my dock disappears and requires a "killall Dock" in Terminal to reappear. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks.
    PS- Running 10.5.8 and it happens all the time.
    Thanks again.

    could have something to do with how you are sharing your desktop b/t the laptop and the monitor... try resetting your monitor to "clone" or resetting your home screen to the laptop BEFORE unplugging the external monitor--

  • Issue with Safari and using the back arrow with multiple tabs open

    I open multiple tabs in Safari but when I'm in a tab browsing and I hit the back arrow, in the new version of Safari, it doesn't just go back to the previous page in the tab, it completely backs out of all the tabs. What am I doing wrong?
    I have a PC running Win 7 and the lastest version of Safari.  I launch Safari which opens to my home page (CNN). I then go the News on my menu bar and select Open in Tabs - then tabs for 6 news sites open up. However if I go to one of the tabs and start navigating around the sight and I want to back up a page I click the back arrow like I have always done in previous versions of Safari but instead of backing up 1 page in the tab I'm in, it collapses all the tabs and I'm back with only the CNN tab still open. Its frustrating not being able to backup on page and I can figure out what's going on. I've use Safari for sometime now but only this version is giving me this problem. I tried resetting and reinstalling Safari but still get the same problem.  Any ideas? Its like I'm backing out of tabs instead of pages.

    Thanks for your quick response.
    1) I have the Block Pop UP windows option turned off
    2) I switched Safari to 32 -bit mode and rebooted my iMac but I still can't get the CBS videos to run
    The exact message I get in the Hulu or CBS box is:
    The video you have requested is either unavailable or is being blocked by an ad blocker installed in your browser.
    I have the same problem with the Safari, Firefox and Opera (all are the latest versions.

  • Any issues with using LDAP on LINUX for GRC 5.2 UME?

    Our company is converting our LDAP servers from AIX to LINUX.  The DNS name used in our UME connection should not change.  Are there any issues with using LDAP on LINUX?  We are currently on GRC 5.2 SP9 (in the middle of upgrading to SP12).
    Also, I have been trying to connect our test UME system to a test LDAP box that has already been converted to LINUX but keep getting a 'connection failed' error when I try to test it. 
    Do you have to reboot the server to test changing the LDAP connections?  I've been trying it by going into UME, pulling up the LDAP tab, hitting the Modify button, entering the new userid and password for test LDAP, and hitting the Test Connection button.  I've verified that this userid and password is correct for test LDAP.
    Is there a way to get more information about why the connection failed?
    Thanks.

    I've been told by our LDAP Support group that none of the other configuration settings should have to be changed.  I should only have to change the id and password to connect to a test version of LDAP instead of our regular connection to the production LDAP.
    Can you test a connection for a different userid/password without having to reboot/restart the server?  Do I need to change these two settings, save then, reboot/restart, and then do the Test Connection button?
    Thanks.

  • Part 2: Flat files and Business Contents: Any issues with this scenario?

    I will appreciate some clarification on the some points made in response to my previous post "Flat files and Business Contents: Any issues with this scenario?"
    1.
    " ...you’d better analyze those cubes for data redundancy and presence of data you’ll never use. " I will appreciate some clarification on the type of analysis you are referring to. Examples will help.
    2.
    "If you want to combine several found IOs in your custom dataprovider, then again you must know (or figure out) relationships between these IOs." I will appreciate some clarification on the type of relationship you are referring to. Examples will help.
    3.
    I am a bit confused with "..include into ODS structure ALL fields required for the cube" but you also noted noted that "...except navigational attributes and chars and KFs that are going to be determined in TRs or URs."
    If you exclude ALL these, haven't you excluded all the fields you included in the ODS structure?
    4.
    "Consider carefully the ODS’ key fields selection. Their combination should not allow data aggregation that you don’t need."
    I may be missing the point here, I understand that you need to select the fields which will form the unique ID for the records in the ODS under the Key Field (please correct me if I am wrong with the purpose of the Key Field), but I don't understand the discussion of "aggregation" in the context.
    Thanks in advance

    Hallo
    I try to give some exaplanation based on the previous answer.
    1. Data redundancy - make sure you do not store the same information. does not make sense to have data redundanty across you Data Warehouse. this is also a cost. just sotre the same information one time if you get all what you need.
    2. whatwhever you build you dp, which consist of IO, you need to know with kind of relation (1:1 or 1:n - n:n and so on) exist between them. that will help you when you model you infoprovider. For example I would never pit togheter IO (n:m) in the same dimension if you expect an high number of cardinality. Sometime an IO can be an attribute of another one (depend on relation. For example
    Business Partner and his Address. Usually you have a relation 1:1, in this case address is an attribute of BParten and store it in the Masterdata instead then DP
    3. Sometime when you load from ODS to CUBE, you can fill some IO (which are in the infocube and not in the ODS)through ABAP routine in TR-Start Routine of Update Rule. Does not make sense to include these IO in the ODS as they are NULL or Blank (the deault value). This can happen when for example, you first load in the ODS (Price and Quantity) and then you calculate Sell price later (Price * Quantity). of course it could be doen also in the Bex. Depends on other factors (Performance - Loaidng -Sizing)
    4. Make sure that the KEY definition of ODS is accordingly to the data otherwise you will aggregate the data and later maybe if you need the detail you miss it.
    for example: customer - product - Distr Chan - Sell Price
    if each Customer can buy each product for any Distrution Channel, then when you build your ODS(Customer - Product and Distribution must be KEY) otherwise (if you have only Customer - Product KEY for example) you will lose the details for Distribution Channel.
    I hope eveyrhting is clear
    Regards
    Mike

  • Are there any compatibility issues with Captivate and OS X Yosemite?

    Has anyone noted any compatibility issues with Captivate and Yosemite?

    I had the same issue. Updating resolved this as well.
    I tested with Captivate 7 and almost everything seemed to work fine. I tested with an existing project file containing TEB's, Motion recording, a third party drag 'n drop widget, and a playbar with a TOC. This all seemed to work fine both in preview mode as after publishing. I also tested with Captivate 6 although I didn't publish anything. Here, everything seemed to work fine as well. However this was only SWF.
    As jpm226 described for 8, previewing HTML5 doesn't seem to work with Captivate 6 and 7 either. Chrome gives a "This webpage is not available" notification. Publishing however, does seems to work.
    Fortunately, the client we work for that asks us to use Captivate 7, also asks for SWF output. So I'll continue to use Yosemite for now.

  • Are there any compatibility issues with Sonos and Airport extreme??

    are there any compatibility issues with Sonos and Airport extreme??

    Sonos uses its own priopietory wireless protocol SonosNet to distribute audio data among all its products, thus it should not affect other network devices which use standard WiFi 802.11a/b/g/n protocol at all though they may share the same radio channel for wirless signaling.
    On my dual-band (5 GHz / 2.4 GHz) Airport Extreme staion, I select the option "802.11n Only (5GHz) - 802.11n (2.4GHz)" and turn on "Use wide channels" in Wireless configuration in order to use only 802.11n protocol and more radio channels to achieve maximum wireless bandwidth of 400 Mbps. This bandwidth is necessary for quick Time Machine backup to NAS connected to the Airport Extreme station through Ethernet cable. So my iMac and MacBook Pro always connected to the Airport Extreme through 5 GHz radio channel with 802.11n protocol whereas my iPhone 4S always connected through 2.4 GHz radio channel with the same protocol.
    In my living room Sonos ZP-90 (same as new CONNECT model) zone player is connected to Airport Extreme directly through Ethernet cable (recommended by Sonos) and Sonos S5 (same as new PLAY:5 model) zone player in bedroom is connected wirelessly through SonosNet protocol to the ZP-90 zone player in living room.
    These devices are in operation simutaneouly most of the time. Music is playing through the Sonos ZP90/S5 zone players througout the day, I am streaming viedo through Internet (fibre broadband 25 Mbps) on my MacBook Pro in bedroom or iMac in living room or reading news on my iPhone. So far so good and have no encounter any interference problem for about three years. Further more bandwidth for 802.11n protocol does not seem to be affected at all.
    In fact with a low power Fujitsu USB drive (2.5" / 500 GB, designed for notebook) plug into USB port of Airport Extreme, it can be used as NAS drive for Sonos music distribution system without any problem. Just transfer all files from Music folder in my home directory on iMac into this NAS drive and set it up as music source in "Manage > Music Library Settings" in Sonos Controller for Mac application will do. Though the same drive can be served as Time Machine's backup disk as well, an independent full-fledged NAS drive for Sonos and Time Machine backup is better long-term solution for reliability and performance. With the NAS configured as sole music source, you do not need to keep any computer powered on all the time in order to play music through the Sonos system.

  • I would like to buy a developer license to use on a mac at a public library from a flash drive any issue with this?

    I would like to buy a developer license to use on a mac at a public library from a flash drive any issue with this? Very new to this

    The license is for the Developer not the machine it is run on However there could be soma issues with trying to develop on a public machine.
    The biggest is does the library machine have or will they let you install  and run Xcode and if you are developing for IOS will they let you plug in your devices?
    In addition will they allow you the hours needed on the machine? Most public machines have a time limit especially if there are others waiting to use it.
    All-in-all in can be done but it won;t be an easy situation.
    good luck
