Brand new x230 minor problems

I just got my x230 today!, overall pretty happy with the machine, everything is perfect except some minor things on the keyboard.
Does anyone elses esc key or delete key feel less springy than the rest? the key isn't sticky but is just when I press the esc key down it doesn't click like the other keys.. it functions correctly, however it seems weird.
Also I have a pretty wide scuff mark on the right shift key.
Other than these, the machine is perfect, no dead pixels on the IPS screen.
Are these things big issues? or did I get a perfectly fine machine. Im not going to return it, but was wondering if other people had these issues.
Thanks

Hello,
I've recived my brand new x230 2 weeks ago, and also noticed some minor quality defects.
1. Keyboard: Left trackpoint button is not mounted properly. As a consequence it is making quite annoying noise while pressing. DEL button is also not mounted correctly and stands out of the hight of other buttons.
2. Loose palm rest: There is 2 mm gap at the left side.
Generally, I am bit dissapointed with the overall quality of built. These are not big issues, but still annoying. Apart from that machine is perfect and I love it a lot.
I have been using X60 for last 5 years or so, and I must say that its quality was outstanding. That was the main reason why I went for Lenovo again.
I am waiting now for Lenovo technican to replace the keyboard and mount the palm rest correctly. Hope it will be solved.
Regards,

My brand new X230 has battery condition Poor!

Hi all,
Just got me brand new Lenovo X230 with 6cell battery (standard for that model I believe), and when I go to the Power Manager under battery it says Main Battery: Condition Poor and it has red icon of the battery next to it. It's like that from the beginng so from the 0 cycle count. The battery seems to be brand new (Manufacture date - 2013-01-03). What could be the problem?
It also says from new - "Your battery can store 64% of its original full charge capacity"
Thank you for all help in advance.
Regards,
Radek

Sounds like you have 2 bad cells in your 6 cell battery. I would contact Lenovo and get them to ship you a new one.

Repeated BSODs in my brand new X230 (with Windows 8)

Hello
I purchased the new X230 in early December and then went on vacation (without it) for two weeks. Thus this is really my first week using it. I've had NINE blue screens of death already, each with the term dpc_watchdog_violation. Further, my Citrix remote work-enabled system shuts down on this computer, making this computer just about useless for work purposes. I'm worried this is a lemon -- how can I have so many crashes in the first week of use? The summary of the crash events is below. Has anyone had similar problems? Has anyone had problems with rtwlane.sys on their X230s?
Thanks for your thoughts and time,
ML

Hi, MLinBerlin
I did some research on the issue on Microsoft's website and found this page explaining what a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION is. According to Microsoft, this error is normally caused by either hardware or a driver of associated hardware. For this reason, I would recommend making sure that all the drivers and BIOS are up to date to rule out any software reasons for this issue. All drivers for your system can be found here. It could possibly be hardware, but let's hope that some updates will get it running smoothly.
Good luck, and let me know how it goes

C7280 Brand new printer cartridge problem-

Printer status shows yellow cartridge is good- brand new HP org. just installed. But all the software I try to print with comes up with a message that says... you need to install a yellow cartridge press. .... button to continue to print in black or cancel...
I've cleaned the heads a couple of times.... I've taken out the cartridge an put it back in.....
Help....
This question was solved.
View Solution.

As some programs do work and others dont its most likely not an hardware issue. As wel that printing from a memory chip works as wel proves this. So its most likley a software issue.
On the software disc of the printer find the Folder UTIL, and in there find the folder CCC. In that folder there should be a file called Uninstall_L4.bat (with or without the .bat added to it depending on your computers settings. Run that file and it will remove and cleanup your software. Reinstall it after that and try know.

Brand New Hard Drive Problems

Hi all,
I just bought a new Samsung 840 Evo 250gb SSD HDD for my early 2011 macbook pro because the "professionals" I took it to said my hard drive had failed. I have searched the internet for hours looking for a solution to my problem, yet I can't seem to find my answer.
Problem: I have already installed my hard drive manually, yet I can't seem to get it to show up on Disk Utility. I want to format it to work with my macbook but the hard drive does not even show up on the list in Disk Utility. Is there anyone who can help me through this?
Thanks

Sure. This is what I use.

Brand New Samsung Stratosphere problem with SD card

I just recently had to get a new stratosphere and It arrived today. My old one stopped charging unless I put pressure on the charger while it charged. I had them transfer all of my contacts at the Manchester Verizon store onto my new phone for $15 using an SD card. Now every time I go too the gallery or try to take a picture it says, "Insert memory card to use Camera". Someone please help me. I'm tired of going back to the verizon store.

A SDHC type 4 4GB card should work fine with your bloggie, so try the card in another device and try another card in your bloggie to establish which is having the issue. If you find that the bloggie is having issues with several different cards it may need service. Give Sony support a call and they will be happy to help:

Brand new iMac kills home network

I have a home wi-fi network with a BT Voyager 2100 router and several PCs and laptops. All works fine. So today - I power up my brand new iMac and the home network stops. IE and Firefox on the PCs give "unable to find xxxx" error messages. I have tried the iMac with both wireless and ethernet connections to my router - same result. Safari on the iMac simply does nothing, blank screen. To get my internet back I have to power off the iMac and then re-start the router several times. Eventually all is well again. How do I get my iMac to work with a BT Voyager 2100 router?

update to my post - an old iMac G4 works just fine. So I guess that basic connectivity between iMac technology and my router is OK... so why does a brand new iMac give problems ?

Strange wifi problem on a brand-new MacBook Pro

Hey there, I'm new here. Desperation has got the better of me, and I hope I can get some advice.
So, last sunday I bought a brand new 13" MacBookPro with 2.8g i7 processor and 10.7.2 OS (I can't update to 10.7.4 because System Update tells me the download has been tampered with or corrupted after I waited 2 hours for it to finish, but I'm trying a direct download from the website). Here's the exact product: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MacBook-MD314LL-13-3-Inch-VERSION/dp/B005CWIZ4O/ref= sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1340301247&sr=8-5&keywords=macbook+pro+13
Everything is all perfect except for a strange wifi problem. Note that the wifi does not turn-on or off, it doesn't disconnect after 'sleep', it doesn't get less speed, it doesn't constantly leave a preferred connection (once I chose my home wifi it always connects to it no problem). The wifi bar is always full. What is wrong is that the internet is kinda 'glitchy'. The best metaphor I can think of is that it's like a car that has to be pushed down the road before the engine can start. Please, bear with me because this is kinda hard to explain and I'm not good at tech lingos.
One of the symptoms is browsing can get really slow and inconsistent, almost as if the wifi gets turned off in the middle of browsing. For example: if I look something up on Google and then open 5 new tabs, probably only 2 or 3 of those tabs will eventually load while the other two will not get past the long 'http:.......google.....etc etc' address and will eventually show one of those 'error loading page because there's no Internet connection' notice. This happens a lot. Sometimes I have to refresh/retry loading a page a couple of times before it finally loads, then usually everything will get back to normal and I will be able to open multiple tabs with no problem, but in a couple of minutes I would try to open another site and the problem will start again.
So I tried to see how it does with downloading using iGetter. Fortunately I also have a Macbook (white-plastic casing one) and my brother has an old 2006 MacbookPro so I can compare. With those two older Apples iGetter starts receiving data in less than 8 seconds after I click Start, while my brand-new Macbook Pro can take up to 15-20 seconds, sometimes it doesn't even start at all and I have to re-click the start button. But once the download actually starts (on my new MacBook Pro), it downloads like normal, it doesn't stop and the speed is also as good as I can get. Strange huh? Hence, like a car that has to be pushed before the engine starts.
I also tried 'speed testing' from a website with all 3 laptops. On my old MacBook and my brother's MacBook pro, once I click 'begin test' it takes only a couple of seconds of 'ping' before the download/upload speed measurements start, but with my new MacBook Pro (just like with iGetter) it takes up to almost a minute before the measurements start, sometimes it won't start at all and I have to re-start the test.
Well, thanks for reading. And hope you can help me shed some light into this. Because it is really preventing me from really enjoying my new MacBook Pro. And if this is most likely a hardware problem, I'd better get back to the store and try to get it replace or something while it's only been 5 days. *cheers*

Hey guys.. Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, I bought the MacBook in Indonesia where there are no such thing as an AppleCare. The only option is to leave the Apple product to one of the 'Authorized Apple care centre' and have whoever do whatever to it without guarantee of success. As for returning it and getting a brand new one, I also don't know if there is such a deal here, but that's actually a good idea, will try to go to the store tomorrow. Although, I'm worried that the problem might be with OSX Lion or something and getting a new one won't help.
mark75090, I've tried resetting the router when I first noticed te problem, didn't work though. I've checked my new MacBook's wi-fi (option+click wifi bar) and it says 'PHY Mode: 802.11g', so does my MacBook and the old MacBook Pro. I don't know what those mean though, and I don't know whether or not my router is an N., can you tell me more please.. I have tried with the other two turned off, and only the new MacBook using the wi-fi but the problem persists. I have also tried connecting directly to the router, but as I described, the problem is too subtle for me to notice the difference.
Also, if I create a brand new Wi-Fi connection in network preferences and connect to my router through the new Wi-Fi profile, the problem seems to be gone for an hour or so, then it always comes back though. I have also just finally installed 10.7.4, but it doesn't help either.

Thanks this was very useful.. I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am having the same problem constant network fluctuations, no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/ba

I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am experiencing constant network fluctuations on my iphone , no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/bars searching etc... Ifeel miserable after trying out all the options changed multiple sims, tried multiple carriers, restored the phone back and have set-up as new device but the problem does not get solved... its is so frustrating that after investing on a world's most expensive phone you cannot enjoy the calling features which the phone offers which is the main thing you own the phone for.. Rest of the things are working.. The funniest part I am not able to make calls or receive calls but can access the internet.. I have tried every possible thing and really very frustrated with this iphone of mine...I hope the problem gets solved.. would anyone have any solutions to this problem.. Does it mean one should never update software as I hear that after updating to IOS.5.1 the problem has started coming and same has been with there.... Apple says its a hardware failure which is very difficult to digest as sometimes I get 5 bars and able to make and receive calls but 95% of the time I am unable to. If anyone has any solution I will be very happy if he or share can share the same. Many thanks. its so disgusting to experience this on top of this apple does not support global warranty for the phone as you need to go to the country from where you bought the phone for replacement.. Truly sad state of affairs.. very very very dissappointing.

Have a look at this it might help

Problem with my brand new mp3 player Zen Stone Plus 2GB ( with built in speaker )

Hi .
I have purchased the following Zen Stone Plus 2GB with built in speaker on 24.06.2008.
From day one, it had a charging problem . Initial charging it'snever go beyond 87%.
After using it for 2 days, at the time of recharging , I found my player won`t get dectected in my PC .
I took the set to the vendor for a checkup . He tried to solve it by resetting , formating etc. But he could only able to to format it's sacrificing its 50% of its allocated space.
My vendor then changed the set with a brand new one, againts that faulty one .
Now the new one worked well for 3 - 4 days , but it is now totally dead .
But the set did not give any indication before it become completely dead.
A few dust particles inside the LCD screen was also observed. I can`t understand how come dust particles can enter inside
a player which is sealed box pack .
Next issue is with the battery which CREATIVE promised of giving a backup of approx 20 hrs of continious playback , which with minimal scuffling and with minimal settings lasted for 0 hrs approx ( 50% less than promised ).
Another thing that i must state is the problem of FM Reception . It is simply terrible . In the same area where my mobile's FM reception is fine , Zen Stone's FM failed to give any reception .
I came to know about Zen Stone Plus from of my friend , who is using Zen Stone Plus GB without any problem for long time.
Pls tell me what to do now, since my player is compleately out of order now , and pls suggest me something regarding the issue of battery backup , FM reception ... etc.
Now i am in a total mess . I just dont know what to do with the set that is few days old .
Pls help urgently .
Waiting for any valued suggestion .
Bye ...

Plethora of problems on brand new mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro

This computer is about a month old and has been behaving very strangely since just a few days into its life.
Symptoms:
1. Computer would freeze or otherwise become unresponsive after being woken from sleep.
2. Music would keep playing long after iTunes has been shut down. Repeatedly starting up iTunes again and shutting it down only produced an additional layer of sound. Only remedy was to reboot.
3. Freeze (I gave up waiting after half an hour) on the boot HD choice screen for Bootcamp with Windows 7. It would keep displaying the 2 hard drives on a grey background, fans would spin up, northbridge felt incredibly hot. After about 5 attempts with booting directly into Windows 7 from Mac OS X from the System Preferences > Startup Disk pane, the choice screen started working properly.
4. Safari 5 sometimes slows down and/or beachballs, plus often crashes while browsing casually. I have not been able to find the source of this problem. It's not Flash, not embedded Quicktime video, I don't know what it is.
5. Computer would randomly adjust keyboard backlighting and screen brightness without any change in light conditions, in the middle of the night for example. Manually adjusting screen brightness right after waking the laptop from sleep recently froze it indefinitely.
6. Mouse cursor sometimes lags for a second or so, only to recover in performance.
*I tried to fix the problem:*
1. Running all the latest software possible, on every front, down to plug-ins and 3rd party apps. Never attempted any system modifications, themes, or other mods.
2. Checked HD with Disk Utility, repaired permissions. Same again, but with Drive Genius 3. No problems were detected.
3. I have reset my PRAM and the SMC/PMU.
Results:
1. Fan now speeds up uncontrollably and randomly almost up to the maximum 6200 rpm. I have never, ever, witnessed such speeds before under any amount of load. This can occur while browsing the Finder, while watching HD video off Youtube with ClickToFlash, or while looking at simple text webpages. The fan would never spin up this much before, not even while attempting to watch 4K video in Flash which I suppose is quite taxing.
2. None of the other problems have gone away.
3. In Windows 7, I still got solid gaming performance, although I have obviously never let it fall asleep under Windows in sheer fear of what might occur. I have not tried running Windows after the PRAM and SMC/PMU reset yet.
Questions:
1. Is this normal to occur on a brand new laptop? If it isn't, what can I do to fix it?
2. If there is nothing else I can do, how can/will Apple help me? I am tired of not being sure whether or not my computer will perform or not, and I need it for things like rushed coursework and presentations.
Thank you all for your advice in advance. I am truly frustrated and will appreciate all the help I can get.

Since waking it up 2 hours ago, I can no longer use the MacBook Pro in OS X. It unavoidably freezes right after connecting to the internet.

TS1702 My brand new iphone5 will not connect to my home wifi even though my ipad and old iphone do connect with no problem. What can I do?

My brand new iphone5 will not connect to my home wifi even though it recognizes it. My ipad and my old iphone4s connect with no problem. Any thoughts?

Although your other devices connect okay, it would be worth resetting your router by switching if off for disconnecting it from mains power for 2 minutes and then switch it on again.
Good luck and do report back.

Brand new ipod touch 5th gen 64gb problems with first power on

I have just received a brand new ipod touch 5th gen 64 gb from amazon. After reading the instructions i tried to power it on but nothing happened.
It was suggested on here to try the recovery start but again, nothing happened.
I then plugged the device in to a wall socket charger to see if the battery is flat,but the apple logo comes on for about 15 seconds then goes off again. If I hold down the home button while the apple logo is off, after a while the ipod goes into recovery start up, but as soon as i unplug it from the wall socket adaptor it turns off.
It will not do anything plugged into the usb soccket of my laptop.
Any ideas or will I have to return this to amazon?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. You can go to an Apple store even if yo purchased it from Amazon
