RSI Issue: Need help on IBM/Lenovo external keyboards w Trackpoint? Pic

Need help on IBM/Lenovo external keyboards w Trackpoint? Pic
I started my journey with Thinkpads on a T42, then T43.. then T61, X61T, R61 & T410 (bought for 2 cousins & they love it), W510 (dads new laptop). I may be a much recent convert but I swear by them now.
MAJOR ISSUE: Recently started feeling RSI (Repetitive Stress) & Carpal Tunnel symptoms (already doing stretches.. adjusted the desk.. & finding new adjustable LCD stand) since I am not using the Thinkpad directly... but using it docked with an External keyboard. Lot of Mousing as well. I'd like to go back to Thinkpad FEEL... or atleast have keyboard with a pointing device so my hands dont have to keep moving back n forth.
So, it would be great it some of my fellow T4x/T6x/X6x 'ers would guide me a bit on this... share their first hand experience, or what they've seen on these keyboards and feel free to point me to reliable sources of information.
Currently this would greatly be use with T61 - Adv Mini Dock - 30" XHD3000 LCD as shown in my signature below.
Anyone who has used or know something about one of these Thinkpad related keyboard (ideally both of these to give a comparative response).
Which of the following have you used?
How was the experience?
(Maybe point me to thread with peoples experiences)
If you've used several, which one do you prefer / recommend? Why?
At the moment I have a "slim" BTC 6200C desktop keyboard. It has laptop like scissor keyswitches, so I like it the slim notebook like profile.
The way I have positioned my 30" LCD I'd like to be able to keep the keyboard on my lap at times while on my chair and maybe on the desk at times.

I had the same issue - had to go to voice command for a few weeks (sucked) wore wrist gards to keep things netural.
Everything went away when I changed to a USB keyboard with the Ultra nav (I use the track point and disable the pad).
I've been working like that for 6+ years now... no issues.
(as a side note, sleeping with wrist guards on helped heal me the fastest. I had neoprine, with a metal plate in them - from a local drug store)

HELP!! Lenovo Q150 - Stuck at pre boot: "To interrupt normal startup, press ENTER"

Please help, my ideacentre Q150 got at stuck at preboot screen with Lenovo logo and message "To interrupt normal startup, press ENTER"
It started after I uninstalled 'Avira: Antivirus' that prompted me to reboot the system. Right after the shutdown and reboot, the system got stuck in pre boot screen.
No matter what I did, I could not get past this screen: I tried following and nothing helps:
1.) Repeatedly mashing Enter, F1, F2.. all function keys (I use the mini wireless keyboard N5901)
2.) Removed HDD
3.) Removed RAM and put back
4.) Removed CR2032 battery
Nothing helps. I bought this on 12/01/2011 and never had a problem until yesterday.
Please someone help!!!!

Any suggestions? Anyone from Lenovo?

Help! How to open PSE 7 without opening catalogue

Tried to migrate from PSE 7 to PSE 9. After catalog conversion the browser seemed to open normally, however crashes in a few seconds. Called the Adobe helpdesk, they come to the conclusion that the catalogue is corrupt, however catalogue functioned normally in PSE 7. Since the catalogue has now been converted, it cannot open in PSE 7 anymore. I was happy having made a back up, but if I want to restore the back up, PSE 7 is automatically opening the old - converted/ corrupt - catalogue and... hangs. Has anybody within Adobe thought of the possibility to open the software without, automatically, opening the catalogue. Seems particulary useful in these kind of circumstances.
I have tried to open and at the same time helding the ALT + SHIFT+ CTRL keys but that does not work.
First of all I d like to migrate with my old catalogue to PSE 9, but at least I would like to still be able to open my old catalogue (back up version) in PSE 7.
Many thanks in advance
Paul
OS: Windows Vista

Ken,
The converted catalog is on its original location (hence original version is overwritten). PSE 7 crashes when opening this catalog.
The backup of the original catalog is on an external drive. Now I want to restore the back-up catalog, my understanding is I need to do this with PSE 7. (I tried it with PSE 9 too but got an error message).
However when I open the PSE 7 software/ organiser it starts automatically to open the converted/ corrupted catalogue and the program crashes...
So key question is: how can I start up PSE without opening automatically a catalogue (then being able to restore the BU)
Thanks for your help.
Regards, Paul

Help scanning photos in Photoshop PSE with OS X Lion

I just purchased Photoshop PSE for my new Mac with OS X Lion operating system, thinking it would allow me to scan in photos......but I cannot figure out how to accomplish this. Some things I read on line suggested I needed a Twain plug in, but the App store has no such thing. I"m at a loss. And I just paid $80 for this Photoshop package which I apparently cannot use.
How do I get my HP Officejet 6310 All in One to send photos into Photoshop?

No "show package contents."
I've clicked right, clicked left, clicked control right and control left on the application on the dashboard, with it wide open on my screen and within the applications window….to no avail.
I've been monkeying with this for 3 hours now. I think I need to go to sleep and start fresh in the morning. It's supremely frustrating because my father is dying, and I've been asked to scan in a bunch of photos before we leave to go to his bedside/funeral….so I'm under the gun time-wise and under the gun emotionally. I just need to get my scanner to put photos over to my computer, and I thought I'd be able to do that with the $80 Photoshop. Guess I should have researched it better before buying. I do appreciate your help, though. I'm very impressed Adobe would have someone monitoring the message boards….

Help opening raw files in PSE 13

Hello,
I upgraded PSE 13 from PSE 9. I was using PSE 9 with my Nikon 600 (because I couldn't open the 600 raw files in PSE 9) by using the Adobe DNG converter. This was working fine. Since upgrading I can't open any Nikon 600 raw files in PSE 13 nor can I open the converted DNG files. It only recognizes jpeg files. The "Open in Camera Raw" option in the File drop down menu is also grayed out and can't be selected. I've tried the "updates" option from the Help menu and ran the updates, shut down PSE13 and also shut down computer and it still isn't working. Wondering if I need to download a new ACR but can't find any that support the Nikon 600. Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you for your help.
When I do the "Help" drop down menu there isn't an option for "adobe plug-in" just "about plug-in" which doesn't list any options that seem to help when clicking on and none that say Camera raw.
I read the manual instructions for downloading and am currently downloading the zip file; it is about 70% done. Will this help?
This is what I'm referencing:
These instructions were originally written to install ACR 8.2 for PSE11, but have been updated to install ACR 8.3 with PSE12. While ACR 8.3 RC would work with PSE11, ACR 8.3 final will not. Only PSE12 will host ACR 8.3.
ACR 8.3 will work with PSE12 to open 70D files, but on an older Windows OS like Vista or XP there is no compatible installer, so a manual install is the only option. I should also say that the process outlined below does work on my Windows 7 64-bit computer, but I also have PS-CS6 and PS-CC installed on it, so it is possible that ACR 8.3 is dependent on something that wouldn't exist on a computer with only PSE installed on it, but someone else will have to confirm that.
I was able to get 70D files to open in ACR 8.3 on PSE12 by doing the following:
Download the ACR 8.3 for Windows update for PS-CC via the direct download link on the Adobe Blog - in the future this link will likely contain links to only newer versions of ACR but the process would be similar:
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/keeping-photoshop-up-to-date.html#notconnected
Unzip this downloaded setup.zip to a folder somewhere.
Inside the files from that zip is a folder called payloads \ AdobeCameraRaw8.0All-031213015928.
(Note that for future versions of PS and ACR the folder name will be different at the end, but the general format shold be similiar, and the important thing is that this is the folder without x64 in the path, because at this point PSE is a 32-bit program so we need the 32-bit version of the plug-in. At some point in the future, PSExx may be 64-bit and the approporiate file or files could be the 64-bit version for the 64-bit version of PSE. This zip file is for Photoshop which has both 32-bit and 64-bit versions so there are both versions of the plug-in as well.)
Inside that folder is another ZIP called Assets1_1.zip so unzip it somewhere.
Inside Assets1_1.zip there is a file called 1003. This is the largest or perhaps only file in that zip and is the plug-in you need.
Copy this 1003 file into the existing PSE12 camera raw plug-in folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats or for a 32-bit Windows OS, into: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats
Rename the existing Camera Raw.8bi to Camera Raw_8bi_80 (in case something doesn't work and you need to rename it back, later).
Rename 1003 to Camera Raw.8bi
After these steps you have the ACR 8.3 plug-in installed in PSE12 but not the camera and lens profiles, so install those by downloading and installing the DNG Converter 8.3:

[Help] Wireless indicator cannot be turned on.

I got my new T61 today and clean installed the vista X64 OS after upgraded RAM to 4 GB. I installed all the drivers needed and checked again in Lenovo System Update, I can never turn the wireless indicator on. The bluetooth indicator is on and the wireless works since I can get online, but the wireless indicator is dead.
I will appreciate if any of you can share some experience and make any suggestion.
Thanks!

Help - T42p and Lenovo Enhanced Port Replicator does not external monitor

T42p Win Xp SP2 2GB Memory ATI Mobility Fire GL T2
I had an old style port replicator that supported my ThinkVision 17" flat panel monitor. The port replicator died and I got a replacement - Lenovo Enhanced port replicator. If I go to the Control panel/Display it now shows 3 monitors and when I try to enable #2 or #3 it takes the extend my desktop setting but when you press the identify button it only recognizes #1 (my T42). My external monitor is blank..............any ideas where to start?

No, I could not get help from any place. I did some research on my own and realized that the Lenovo port replicator (with Lenovo name on it) is actually theTargus ACP50 which is sold as a universal port replicator. The difference is that the Lenovo unit has a driver specific to Lenovo. I even went to Targus website and download their latest “generic” driver. The driver worked with the Lenovo computer fine, but still does not resolve the issues that you and I see. So I concluded that it is the port replicator crappy design.

Need Help on Buying Book for PSE 7

I bought Photoshop Elements 7 several months ago. I am not that savy with the program and was looking to buy a book to help me learn it. I've tried the on-line tutorials but didn't like them. I thought about "PSE 7 Ultimate Guide for Dummies", but the reviews say that it is not really for beginners. The reviews state that you need a good understanding of PSE 7 frist. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good beginners book on PSE 7?
Thanks.

Hi
My second suggestion would be Scott Kelby's book......"Book for Digital Photographers" I have an earlier version which i use besides the Missing Manual
I think you'll find that there isn't one book for all. It takes one or two, some practise and some free on line tutorials
cheers
Neil

Help! can't open PSE 5.0.2 at all and I have to reboot

I have been using pse 5.0.2 since July 2007 on xp. When I double click the icon PSE starts to initialize and hangs when it gets to "Reading Preferences". I can use other applications, but once I click on them the screen gets messed up and no matter what I have to reboot. I tried putting in the installation Cd and get the following errors in this order
1. Invalid unicode file .\AutoPlay\main.ini
2. Error MAIN_FILE_VERSION
3. Error PRODUCT_REGISTRY_PARENT
4. Error PRODUCT_REGISTRY_KEY
I also tried installing the CD on another machine which does not have photoshop elements and I get the same 4 errors.
I did go through the PSE forum, saw some errors with the organizer freezing, but I can't even open elements at all. I do not have google chrome installed. I have not installed anything new on this computer in a year, and do not have any firewalls, or spyware loaded.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You didn't say if you were trying to load the Organizer or the Editor.

Need help wireless not working

Hello all, I'm running a Lenovo 3000 v100 laptop and I've encounter this problem recently. My laptop won't let me connect to the internet wirelessly. The wireless card does sense nearby connection and was able to connect to it. The icon tells me I have extremely strong connection and it seems to work fine, but when i try to open up a browser it won't let me connect to any pages. However when I connect with a wired connection my internet works fine. I'm guessing that some drivers in my laptop have gotten corrupted but i'm not sure, does any one have a solution to this?

How about a little help out there Lenovo...??

I've posted 2 recent posts about my laptop screen background turning from white to blue..and have yet to get even 1 response!!!
I could use a little help here and I thought that this forum would be the place for it...is there a reason I'm not getting any replies ??

Hi rllenovo,
please don't forget that this is a peer to peer forum, provided by Lenovo in order that members may seek assistance from others and share their experiences. There is a Lenovo presence here but unfortunately they are not able to address every issue and therefore there is no guarantee you will receive a direct response.
It is possible that no other members are experiencing, or have experienced the same as you, or if they have, haven't been online since you posted. Sometimes in forums you need to bring a little patience with you. Alternatively you have the option of contacting Lenovo support.
It maybe that because you chose a user name with Lenovo in it that other members think you work for, or are associated with Lenovo and maybe felt that other channels of assistance would be available to you and hence offered no comment???
edit; typo

Configure wireless for Lenovo X60 on Fedora 8, anyone?

Has anyone had any luck getting the built-in wireless card to work for lenovo x60 on Fedora?
Any tip is appreciated.
-tito

Hi,
thanks for the quick reply.
there is a wireless router at my house where it communicates with my PC via the wireless connection. so yes, the wireless capability of my router works.
I have no idea which card is built-in but the Lenovo X60 is of type 1706 and 85U mode. How can you find out for sure from a command or if that is even possible?
you suggested to create and alias in /etc/modprobe.conf for this wireless device once the driver has been installed as follows:
"alias ath0 ath_pci"
do you mean eth0? or ath0 is a new device name that i m not aware of. to my surprise, the ethernet is labeled as eth1.
I'll try to yum install the driver tonight when i get home.
BTW, I am having a similar problem with an IBM T42 running fedora 7. i don't normally use wireless on this laptop because the wireless router (at work) can be flaky at times but it would be nice to install/enable wireless card for it in case i need to bring it home to do some work. I could very well use the wired connection at home with this T42 as well but it would be nice to use the wireless connection instead.
Any hint/tip would be much appreciated.
here is the current ifconfig and modprobe.conf of the T42

Notice, it seems to me that driver has already been loaded for the wireless eth1 but it doesn't pick up the signal. eth0 is the hard wire. perhaps, there is something i need to tweak?

Wireless Problems Lenovo x121e & DLink DI 524

I'm experiencing some rather erratic Wifi behaviour with my laptop. Since there are so many factors involved, I have trouble pinpointing the problem.
My setup is as follows: A Lenovo x121e with Arch installed, and a Realtek RTL8188CE card; a Hitron CVE-30360 cable-modem and a DLink DI-524 router. I've used this How-To from DLink (beware: German Dlink HowTo) to setup the DI-524; in essence: deactivate UPnP, changed IP to 192.168.0.222, turned off DHCP-Server, connect cable modem to LAN port of the DI-524. My desktop, which is connected via cable to the router, connects to the internet just fine.
With my laptop, I want to use the Wifi, obviously. I set the router to use WPA (also tried WPA2, no difference), and then connected with either wifi-menu or wicd-curses. It establishes a connection, yet it is very slow most of the time, and drops packages (up to 10% package loss when pinging the router).
What log files etc. would I look for, I don't really know where to start with this.
Thanks in advance

Had the same problem here. The source of the probelm is the crappy module rtl8192ce!
I solved the problem by using a intel wireless card now. I bought the intel N6200 and everything is fine now.
But be careful: You have to mount the card in the free pci slot (with a adapter), if you replace the original wifi-card the BIOS will complain and you have to flash a differnt BIOS where the intel card isn't blacklisted.

HELP; wireless router working on iMAC but SUPER SLOW !!

I have consistently been having problems with my router WRT54G version 5
where download speed is very slow, I cannot even watching streaming video
without interruption every few seconds. I thought the problem was with my
bandwidth speed so today I upgraded my plan with my ISP and they told me to
do a speedtest to check that it was already upgraded.
I have a Windows PC located next to the WRT54G version 5.  I attached the
PC directly to the modem and got close to the speed allowed by my ISP.
I tried the PC on the WRT54G connected via ethernet cable and got dismal
rates of 500k to 600k download speed.
I have an iMAC in another room and also tested it via wireless on the WRT54G.
Initially, I got close to the max speed of my ISP. Tested again a few minutes after and got download speed of 1,300 kbs. Tested again and got 1,000 kbs. Then now about an hour later, i tested again and got very slow speeds of 600-700k download speed. Note that I did not move my iMAC from its location while conducting these differnt speed tests. The problem cannot be with my ISP because directly connecting to the modem without a router achieves the desired download speed. Its only when I use the router that i get wide results and now, my connection remains intermittent.
What can be wrong? I dont have any interference.
It was suggested to change the channel of the router but must update firmware first. But firmware does not come in MAC version.
Any other ideas? Help ... i am desperate!! Now i feel stupid upgrading my bandwidth when that doesnt seem to be the problem at all.

You can connect your pc to router, download the latest firmware for wrt54g v5 and upgrade it. After upgrade reset router and then reconfigure it once again. Then do the speed test you will receive excellent speed.
