Button "Auto-detect my system" won't show on Lenovos Support Site...

Hi.
Since lately I'm using Vista Ultimate on a T61p. After running Rescue and Recovery factory settings I tried to automatically identify my ThinkPad on the Lenovo Support Site. I installed the ActiveX Plugin but nothing happend. After that I upgraded the Internet Explorer to version 8, but I am still missing the button "Auto-detect my system". Are there any other suggestions? Thanks.

I think you can run version 3.6:

I just read today about a separately maintained, unofficial version of Firefox for 10.4 users called TenFourFox. They are somehow repackaging the latest Firefox to work on 10.4 (''on non-Intel Macs''). You might want to research it and see whether it makes sense for you: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

    My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?

    If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
    Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
    An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
    At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
    Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet

    How do I add my new iPhone4s to iCloud's "Find my iPhone"? I followed the iCloud instructions and turned on Macbook Pros' system prefs to "find my mac", turned on iPhone4s's "location services" and set up iCloud, etc. In the "Find my iphone" tab of my new iCloud account (on my Macbook Pro) my iPhone4s still won't show—but my macbook does show. I had my iPhone4s set up at the phone store (2 days ago) and It receives gmail, my contacts and calender entries, the weather, etc. I installed the "Find iPhone" app from iTunes on the iPhone4s, synched to iTunes, even reset the phone, but the only device that gets located is my Macbook Pro. I can send a "sound" message to my Mac (and the Mac recieves it) but unable to see the iPhone4s from my Mac, let alone send any message. Any suggestions to get the iPhone4s device to appear in iCloud?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    OK, I figured it out...I deleted the iCloud account off my iPhone (Settings, iCloud, Delete Account), and then added iCloud back in (Settings, iCloud, SignIn)....and then my email (iCloud) and "Find my phone" features worked! Nice!!!!

  • Why won't show buttons only on this PC player?

    Both me and a friend of mine have just made (separately) a few menus for one client...the menus I've done all use a simple one layer transparent png file (done in photoshop) of arrows next to each video which SHOULD highlight as you roll over the text...My friend also did a few menus (on his mac) but used psd files which have buttons on separate layers as well as a text highlight when rolled over...
    Problem is while these burned DVD's with our menus play fine on macs and even set top players, even on a player called Interplay on a PC, both his and my menus will not HIGHLIGHT on Windows Media Player - ie, the arrows on my png file won't show up at all ever, on Windows player, even latest version. You still get the mouse turning into a hand/finger when you roll over a button, but there is never any icon/arrow showing up as it should, next to the text one rolls over - do you have to use something other than psd or png for Windows Media Player, or what is a fix for this Windows thing, what advice can you give - client (and us) not happy. They say it MUST be able to play correctly on Windows Media Player (as it's the most pervasive).
    We are both using DVD SP 4.2.1.
    Thanks

    Actually the problem is Windows Media Player. WMP is well know for being the buggiest DVD player around. All the PC hardware manufacturers are well aware of how buggy WMP is so they all include a more reliable program for playing DVDs. Typically PowerDVD or WinDVD. HP installs WinDVD on every PC that has a DVD drive because they know how unreliable WMP is. I think Dell installs PowerDVD. If you check with your client you will find that they have something more reliable than WMP already installed on their computer. Use that.

    The following support article is somewhat outdated. Where it refers to booting from an installation disc, you should boot from your recovery partition (if running 10.7 or later) by holding down the key combination command-R at the chime.

    Hi,
    I would try a Safe Boot first.  (This will take longer than a normal Boot and you will need to Restart afterwards).
    If it were an older OS I would also suggest going to System Preferences > Displays and making sure the display is set to Millions.  (My MacBook Pro does not have this option in Snow Leopard so I did presume Snow Leopard does not have it).
    With some laptops there have been some issues with the cable up the back of the screen pulling loose with regular and frequent use of the lid, but this will not apply to you based on your specs.  (it does take time to appear and is also somewhat rare). However it seems enough contact with the camera can make it appear in System Profiler and power it on but not give a pic.
    If a Safe Boot does not work I would also try a PRAM reset.
    Shut down the computer.
    Restart it holding down Apple/CMD (or ⌘)+ALT( ⌥)+P+R Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
    This is actually "less" destructive in that it clears less memory items than Safe Boot but they are different enough to warrant trying.
    Do you have an older version of iGlasses installed ?
    The one for Leopard does not work for Snow Leopard.
    Do you have  Web Browser open ?
    This may point to  Google Video Chat Plug-in and Flash Conflict.  It would be rare to allow another app to access the camera even if not displayiong a Pic. 
    (Chrome Installs the Plug-in as does the standalone download).
    Knowing  what "any application" exactly you are trying might help us pin it down.
    Any additional downloaded  apps that can use the camera ?
    Do you happen to have something balck in front of the camera ?

  • My Aperture library(s) won't show up in System Preferences

    I recently installed Aperture and started importing all my pictures into it. I would pick my desktop wallpaper through the Aperture library in the Desktop & Screen Saver preference pane. I started up my Mac today and the Aperture Library showed up as an odd folder that looked similar to this:
    DSKApertureRootSource-QZXCXCVVXCVXCVCXV_
    I  hit the minus button and removed the folder thinking it would reload itself however I was clearly wrong. I can't seem to find a way to get Aperture back into the side pane of the wallpaper selections. My Aperture libraries won't show up, even ones I create. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried rebuilding the libraries, repairing permissions via Disk Utility and Aperture itself.
    Thanks.

    Okay so exporing images to a new library and then making sure share the previews with ilife preference was enabled seemed to bring back the functionality.

  • Everytime i open the firefox it shows me error "The proxy server is refusing connections" for this everytime i have to manually select the auto detect. I

    This is happening from last one month. i set the proxy setting to auto-detect and it works fine. but then i close firefox and start it again shows me same error. so everytime i start firefox i have to change the setting to auto-detect.
    Is there any permanent solution for it.?

    HI
    First of all are you using any proxy for internet access. If you do nat have a proxy, try to change the settings to No proxy.

  • My auto-detect proxy keeps resetting to manual which won't allow me to access the web

    Frequently when I click to refresh a page or open an new page I get this message:
    "The proxy server is refusing connections
    Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
    * Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
    * Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working."
    Tools>Options>Advanced>Configure how firefox connects to the internet Settings> will show that once again, the browser changed itself from auto detect to manual. I change it back to auto-detect and hit save, sometimes it works right away, sometimes I have to do it 3-4x in a row in order for the change to "stick"

  • MacBook Pro Won't Auto-Detect DNS Servers

    Hello,
    I've had some serious issues with my internet at my student residence, but I always seem to be able to solve those issues with a few hours of tinkering (nothing majorly technical). But I've realized that no matter where I go now, when I try to connect to a Wifi network (free @ a cafe, school, friends house) my iPhone 5 will automatically connect & work instantly, but my MacBook will connect to the network, but will have either no DNS servers, or ones I've entered for previous fixes of my home network.
    How do I make my MBP auto detect DNS servers? I'm moving out of this student residence tomorrow so I'm not that concerned about losing these DNS settings, but no matter where I go to use the Internet, I need to go on my iPhone / friends computer to see which DNS settings the network assigned for them and manually enter them.
    Any help? Seems relatively easy, I assume. I would prefer not to reset my MBP because of the amount of programs I have that I no longer possess the disks for (MS Office, Photoshop etc).
    Thanks in advance!

    Whenever you connect to a network, you should automatically receive the address of at least one DNS server from the Internet gateway. That will not happen if you've manually set DNS server addresses in the Network preference pane. Have you done that?
