Hi,
the silent uninstallation method is different by every version of AC that you are using.
Becasue of this I would advice to do following, to determinate the AC uninstall string:
go to registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products]
press CTRL+F and type "Access Connections" <so that you can find it quicker in the whole ID list>
Optionaly you can find the uninstall string in following reg key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall]
Basically if you press by the first option CTRL+F and look for the Access Connections string, then it should direct you to the correct key.
Once you will find the key, look up for the key called: "UninstallStrin"
This is the whole uninstallation string, that you can usin through command line, or remotely using a script to get Ac uninstalled.
If you are looking for the fully silent uninstall command, then you can add "/s" switch to the end of the command to :
/s -l0x9
Please let me know, if that worked for you .

Use thinkvantage access connections to map a network drive

Is it possible to use thinkvantage access connections to map a network drive. I have three different basic sites (home, work1, work2) with network drives that I would like to access depending on the site.
1) I wonder if it is possible to configure thinkvantage access connections to automatically map the network resources through a connection profile?
2) I wonder if it is possible to configure thinkvantage access connections to automatically map the network resources through a connection profile that is based on vpn connection?
thanks in advance
sincerely, anders

Hi,
directly it's not possible for Access Connection to reconfigure your network drives.
However, there is one really cool part of Access Connection, that might be realy suitable for your situation. This part is the script/application, that can be executed when a profile gets applied.
So for your situation I can imagine, that you create a .bat file, that contains something like this:
net use * /DELETE /YES
net use Z: \\computer name\share name
The first part will delete all maped drives. The second part will establish connection that you want to use. Of course you can multiply the last part, so that you can configure multiple connections.
Please let me know, if this helps.
Cheers

ThinkVantage Access Connections cannot export .loc profile

Hello,
I've tried to export one of the location profiles in Thinkvantage AC. The function however is disabled in the profile maintenance window/menu. Access connection thus only allows importing, but no exports possible.
I've already tried using the Deployment tool for creating .loa files. But as this is binary gibberish, it's not much more useful to me than a registry export.
So, does anybody alternatively have a *.loc file at hand for public viewing? Couldn't find a single example on the web. (Much less in Lenovos documentation or web site...)
Thanks!

Here's an update to my situation:
ThinkVantage Access Connections Issue
I just gave up on this and uninstalled it so no conflicts on this now. (Not critical to me unless someone more knowledgeable thinks it should be!)
Rescue and Recovery: I tried reinstalling both the Thinkvantage version 4.21 and Rapid Restore 4.0 after disabling all virus protection and uninstalling whichever one was on at that time.
Thinkvantage version 4.21: Gave me tons of errors in the pre windows R&R environment so I gave up after rebooting a couple of times It told me there was a problem with factory.exe and the following files were "corrupt and unreadable":
netdgdxb.PNF
nettcpip.PNF
netvt86.PNF
netw940.PNF
net557.PNF
netand2.PNF
netbrdgm.PNF
netce2.PNF
NetSetup.Log
Rapid Restore 4.0: Reinstalled from c:\ibmtools\apps.
Ran both "Create Rescue Media" and Rapid Restore 4.0. "Create Rescue Media"seemed to work ok and burned a CD for me. Rapid Restore had a problem and closed on it's own, but then proceeded to prompt me through 17 CDs for a backup!?! Can I rely on these? Is there a way to check their integrity? Of course, a fix for the program seeming to end--but not really --would be great. Also, the program to create the factory product recovery disks is no longer in Start-Programs menu. The pre Windows R&R environment seems to load ok--no obvious error messages.
Finally, since I reinstalled the software is the backup to factory info gone from my computer? Is there a way to check? What is the relationship between this and Windows System Restore which is reserving 9Gb on my HD--do I need both?
Thanks in advance!

Thinkvantage Access fails to launch

Kindly requesting help on the Thinkvantage Access running XP on my T-60.
I had to restore my wireless Ethernet device driver a few times and updated my Thinkvantage Access program. Now the Thinkvantage Access will not run. Whe one clicks to run the program, the hour glass will appear for a minute or so and then the hour glass will simply disappear, and everything will be back to as if nothing has happened.I do have the icon at the bottom of the display and the menu will appear when one clicks on it. But one cannot select, launch or modify anything from the menu.
I have unistalled and installed Access a few times and could not fix the problem.
I do not know if it is related, but my Thinkvantage Productivy program will not work either. The program will install without erros but appears nowhere, not in the program group, not by the BLUE button.
I have updated my BIOS. Do not know if it matters.
Any assistance will be much appreciated....

Hi,
your situation seems to me like an OS issue, so I would surelly think about geting the system reinstalled. Of course first to make a full backup.
However, as first you can try following:
- uninstall Access Connection (AC)
* reboot the system
- check whether you can see the folder: C:\Program Files\ThinkPad\ConnectUtilities => if yes, then delete the "ConnectUtilities" folder, as it still may contain informations, that are damaging ant reducing the functionality of AC when you install it back
- go to registry : and check if following key exist:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lenovo\Access Connections => if yes, then delete the "Access Connections"-key
Let me know, if this will make any change to your situation.
You know, the basic logic is, that once you delete and install it back, there must be something left on the system, that is making this applicaiton to not to react propperly.
Oh yes, and there is one more thing, that might be interresting to know:
once the AC will not start and you just see the "sand hour" go to %programfiles%\ThinkPad\ConnectUtilities and try to run the applicaiton by double-clicking on the "Access Connections.exe". If the double-click on this file will make no change, then try to check if you have the file "ACMainGUI.exe" present in this folder and try to execute him.
Let me know the results.
Cheers

Thinkvantage Access Connection reinstall help

I removed the Thinkvantage Access Connection program because I was having problems connecting to the wireless network in my home. I thought I'd try the Windows network connection but I couldn't get it to work. I now want to reinstall the Thinkvantage Access but don't know how. My T61 did not come with any disks. Where can i find this program, or do I have to do a full restore?
thanks

Thinkvantage Access Connections on W520

I would like to use the Thinkvantage Access Connections on my W520. I have found where to download the files. In the Read Me document it state that the model W520 is supported but the network connector is not listed in the "supported device" list.
I want to use the Thinkvantage Access Connections for my LAN networks.
It is a bit confusing now. Is the Thinkvantage Access Connections available for the W520 model or not?
Thank you

Hey Bostoe,
Yes it is if you look at the links below one is to Access Connections for w520
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?&DocID=DS030044#devices
which shows that it is supported and the next link is to Psref for a w520
http://www.lenovo.com/psref/pdf/tabook.pdf
which show the wlan that is installed which shows up on supported hardware. Now if yours is different from any of the above please post the device you have and we will be more then happy to help in any way we can.
Best Regards,
Hiro

ThinkVantage Access Connection disconnects

ThinkVantage Access Connection disconnects from the Network after resuming from Sleep or Hibernate. The only way to reconnect to the Network is to reboot. OS is Vista Home Premium installed on Lenovo notebook 3000 N100. This problem just recently began. Have not made any changes that could have possibly caused this problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

T400 - Thinkvantage Access Connections not connecting after sleep/hibernate

I have a relatively new T400 for work - and there are no problems connecting wirelessly at work. However, I have set up my home wireless network, and I have problems.
When I power up my laptop, I can create a Connection Profile for my home network - and it connects no problem. However, if I let the laptop go to sleep, it will not reconnect upon waking up. Using the diagnostics, I get 3 errors - (a) make sure your encryption settings are correct for this network (it connected before, so they are)
(b) contact network adminstrator (that's me)
(c) your profile is on the same channel as an active network (yup - mine)
The only solution appears to be to delete the profile, reboot the PC, and recreate the profile.
Windows XP Pro, Thinkvantage Access COnnections 5, Intel 5100 wireless card (and T400 as I indicated earlier).
Any tips?
Thx,
jason

All of hte MS updates are applied. I have tried the Thinkvantage System Update utility, but it does not work (System Update 3). When I start it, I get the splash screen for the program, and after a few minutes the splash screen disappears; when I check teh taks manager, the system update tool is not listed in the Applications tab.

Java and Ms access conection and modification

Hello everyone,
I have two problems:
1. I need to create tool that will create a test database and later on to populate it. The first problem is connected with creating the file. I do not know whether this is possible or not, but I want to create a file in which later on I can create tables and insert some values in the tables.
2. In this problem I want to input meaningfull values in the database columns? I do not know how this could be done.
Also at the moment I am have created the application and connect the application with a database file created from MS Access, with ODBC driver through the Control Panel.. What I mean to do is to create dinamicaly file according to the user input, and to populate that file with meaningfull data(values) later on. This is all done automatically, the user do not have to insert the values in the database, but through For loop at the moment I am inserting some kind of values, rows in the database, according the users input.
Any tips and help regarding any of the two above problems will be appreciated.
Thanks to everyone,
Borce.

Thanks for the reply. How do you mean to make a copy
of a "empty" file? From the command line....
copy empty.db mystuff.db
In your java code you do the same.
To create one file with MS Access
and than to use the copy of this file? If this is
what you mean thanks a lot, I thought that idea, but
I did had time to work on it. Yes that is one way,
and I will check whether it will work, if the user
changes the name of the file into something else.
That is the only way unless you want to use JNI and OLE (and I am only guessing that it is possible to do it that way.)
Also I have one more question, is it possible to use
the file, what I mean by use is to create table in it
or to insert values if I have not set this file to be
the database file in the Control Panel? Search for "DSN-less" connection strings for MS Access in this forum. The url must be exact or it will not work.
>
For the second problem, what I mean by meaningfull
data is that if the name of the column is "Name" to
put some kind of characters or to input from file. I
beleave that the meaningfull data. :) Still doesn't mean anything.
If you just want to populate the initial database with a small amount of data then just do it manually. Then that is what you use for the initial copy.
If it is more complicated then you can either use the MS Access import feature in the GUI (and still do the above copy) or you write some java code, perhaps getting the data from a file or not (up to you.)

ThinkVantage Access Connections, Power Manager, and Toolbox all crash on startup

I have a SL 500 with factory Vista , updated to SP2 and the current versions of the thinkvantage components.
Access Connections has always been very buggy of this machine (I guess the battery monitor has been as well), When I attempted to update them this is where I ended up.
Also just installed new .net framework 4 as well.
thanks for any help

Any ideas on how to get it started again?
Thanks
