Can not get out of screensaver

Hello,
I have a Lenovo R500 with Windows 7. When i leave my computer on for a while without using it gets into a screensaver state where i can not get out of, only by restarting abruptly the computer and so all open programs that are still running. How can i solve this?
Thanks!
Johan

Hi Johan1974,
Here are a few more details:
Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager.‌ Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
      In the list of device categories, expand Mice and other pointing devices.
      Right-click the entry for your mouse, and then click Properties.
      In the Mouse Properties dialog box, click the Power Management tab, check the Allow this device to wake the computer check box, and then click OK.
There are some screenshots here although the instructions are to remove the check because it is advising how to disable it. You will be doing the opposite.:

I have a first generation ipod touch. I use a wireless router to get my internet connection. It is frozen on opening up a website and will not release. Even when I power down and restart it goes back to the same failed connection. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Ray.

- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Safari and delete cookies, cach and history.
- Restore the iPod

After having spent EUR 130 on cables from apple, i still can not get video out from my ipod touch 3rd gen. Any ideas? It should nt be diffiicult to do this on the 21 st century, or not?

Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media. You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else. As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC. Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

I'm staying at my house in Peru, South America. From my PC laptop I can see my neighbor's wifi service network, but I also have my mini iPad and I can not figure out why I can't get any wifi connection from my area. Is there a setting I need to do?

Yes, I did try to go on my settings>wifi and was waiting for any wifi signals to pick up, but nothing shows up. But on my PC I get a whole list of networks to choose from. Regarding my neighbor, I already have her password that is why I was able to get it on my PC, the problem is that the mini Ipad is not picking any signal neither can it locate me when I go to maps.

I have an iPOD mini library and now have a IPhone 4S. I updated my library and synced my phone to the library but can not figure out how to get the music library to download to my iphone

I have an iPod mini library which I have update. I now have an iPhone 4S which I have synced to the library using a MS XP computer. I can not figure out how to get the library to download to my iPhone?

Thanks, This caused me to go back and try again since the solution seemed so simple. What I did was when it started downloading, it started with the iphones apps to my computer. I did not want the apps downloaded on my computer so I stopped it. If I would have waited, the music was uploaded right after the apps were downloaded.

I have purchased Adobe XI Pro and created a form for entering bowling scores to submit to newspaper for my high school team. I can not figure out how to get pdf's into my documents folder on my iPad so that I can access the files in bowling alleys where I do not have a Wi-Fi connections. I need to be able access files without going to acrobat.com. Help!!!@

Post the PDF files to a web site. The browse to them in Safari on the iPad. When you Open the files specify the Open to occur in Adobe Reader. Then you can have/Save them in your Documents folder on the iPad. An iPad has limited access to files otherwise.

You do a restore as new to wipe the iPhone then at the end of restore you will be asked to restore from backup. Choose your iPhone backup.
Note you cannot restore an IOS newer than the IOS on iPhone, you need to update iPhone first.

So, when you open your main Applications folder, there is no Office app there?
It's in your Users>Applications folder?

If you are in a screen to plug into iTunes, then the device is in recovery mode. Your only option is to connect to the computer to restore the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

How do I get my security passwords I have forgotten them and can not get envy thing with out them

Fastest way is by contatcing support. This is because youc an't reset the questions on your end if you forgot the original answers.
https://expresslane.apple.com/
Follow these steps:
All Products and Services > iTunes > iTunes Store > Account Management > iTunes Store account security
Answer the questions and if required sign in with your Apple ID and password - same one you used to log in on this support forum.
You will find an option to send an email to Apple on that page. Indicate that you forgot the answers to your security questions and wait for iTunes support to reply.

Can not get e-mail messages to go out on my Palm Centro

I have a Palm Centro and have tried to set up my e-mail accounts. I can not get either e-mail options to send the e-mails out (I can get incoming messages however). I have entered the correct information required by my provider (I am with Mediacom). Any ideas on what the problem might be or what I can do to fix it? Thanks.
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

This happens with a lot of providers, who block remote access to their outgoing servers as a means of preventing spam.
Try using Sprint's outgoing mail server. Go to the Palm Knowledgebase and enter 39211 in the Solution ID box for the server information.

Hi there!
Not knowing anything more than what you've posted (e.g., email provider, text of the request, etc.), we can only surmise that this must be the password revalidation that HotMail and other providers send out on a periodic basis. Here is the KB that discusses what to do:
