I cannot enter the BIOS mode on my Yoga Ideapad - Novo button does not do anything

Hi,
I have a win 8.1, and cannot access the Bios in any way I tried.
I shut down the computer, pressed the Novo button - nothing happens.
Pressed it while turning the computer on, nothing happens.
I'd like to change the F keys to their normal state (being Fn keys and not volume etc.).
How do I do this?
Thanks,
Iram

Reboot while holding down Shift, choose Advanced -> UEFI Firmware Settings, voila you're in the bios.

PXE-E61: media test failure on Portgege 3500 but can't enter the BIOS

I canot enter my BIOS menu.
I tried all the keys ( ESC, F1, F2, Delete..etc) but then i get message :" PXE-E61: media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F:exiting PXE ROM". I tried everything but i still cannot enter the BIOS menu.

Turn the laptop On and hold ESC, then press F1 when prompted. Pressing F12 on power-up should give you a boot menu. (This is in the Users Manual)
The PXE error means its trying to boot off the Network, because it cannot find an OS on the HDD.
Test the HDD using a HDD test. The Advanced test in Hitachi DFT is good. (google is your friend)

Tried outside the cabinet also...cleared the cmos...tried to boot only with cpu cooler.an8800gt card ,1gb ram( Corsair ).Same case...No..post ..
Even tried with the same configuration in my spare P5n-e sli mobo there it posted fine.
Beginning to feel that the mobo is defective.
"tried to boot only with cpu cooler"
You need a CPU as well
Can you try with different PSU too?
Also check mainboard CPU socket for bent-ed pins

My iphone won't turn on at all and when i connect it to a charger the apple sign just flashes on and off but does not turn on?

I've tried charging it overnight and it still will not turn on, when connected to the charger the apple sign just goes on and off but does not do anything, i've tried resetting it and this also does not work, but then once taken off the charger it doesn't even say the sign for charging it just does nothing

Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

Z87-G43, can't enter the BIOS Setup, system is not running

Hi everyone,
I was working with my pc for about 2 months. Since the very first day i had few problems with mobo but now i can't even run the system and enter the bios. First of all, i had problem with running the system after disabled the MSI logo. I had to enebled it again, because it was the only way to turn on PC (bios stopped at the screen with black screen and a2 code) but it was about 1 month ago. I also remember that from the very beginning option "Hardware Monitor" wasn't working, i mean bios was freezing too and i had to restart PC. Furthermore i have noticed that after choosing language to Polish, few more options in "Settings" appeared, but after switching language back to english they were gone. Unfortunately i can't say now, which one it was because now i got the biggest problem...
BIOS is not running at all. I mean, it all stops with A2 code in right bottom corner of the screen. I can't even enter the bios setup. It shows "Setup is preparing to start" or something like that, but it doesn't run... Can't do nothing atm. BIOS version was the latest - 1.6 . It all started to happening when i had entered to option in bios with disabling or enabling MSI logo, i didn't choose nothing, it freezed, i have resterted PC, and now i nothing is running... Btw sometimes, i coudn't run the system and bios was freezeing also, if my TL-WN722N wasn't connected to USB port in front case's panel. But now, whenever Tp-LINK is connected or not, it's not running...

A2 is IDE detect <--- that is a HDD/SSD problem or its cable (try a different one)
if the above doesn't work try to foll0w >>Clear CMOS Guide<< do that to reset the BIOS to defaults with power cord removed from your PSU!
after performing the above steps make sure you enter BIOS and reset the SATA mode (AHCI/IDE/RAID to what you installed your os at) and boot order to your SSD first!
Ye that's the reason, I have a new brand 1tb sata 3 where I installed the windows, but the old 320gb sata 2 is causing the same error, so I have to remove the cables from the sata 2 hdd, than the pc boots ok. I shutdown & reatach the old drive & evrething works untill the PC enters stand by again.

My 5S touchscreen is not working, I cannot enter the lock password, is there a way to retrieve data? Apply store wants to reissue a new iphone and wipe out the existing.

Hello,
I purchased a new Iphone 5S about a couple of months back. The phone use to hang up occassionally with a white screen and the black apple logo on it. Two days back the screen went unresponsive. I cannot enter the lock code. Everything seems to be normal otherwise. I can see the Atnt signal, I get calls. The find my iphone app on a different device can locate my iphone. I can even take screenshot by pressing the home key and power button simultaneously.
I took the phone to apple store and they say they will issue me a new phone. I dnt mind but I will loose the data on the phone. It was never backed up because my icloud is filled with data from my ipad. Is there a work around to get the data back.?
Any help is appreciated.

Are you sure that the battery is not empty: when the battery is VERY empty (that is when it was on and a long time off the charger) it may take an hour or even more to start charging with the charger connected. When you have an iPad charger you can also use that one, and it charges a bit faster.

I can no longer sync my IPAD2 to my ITUNES and I cannot enter the ITUNES store.

Up until recently, I was able to enter the ITunes store and sync my IPAD2. Now I cannot enter the ITune store and cannot sync my IPAD2. Not sure what to do. Can anyone help if you have had the same issue?

Sounds like there is a conflict between iTunes and the security software on your computer. What secuirty software is running on your computer? Have you update the security software or iTunes before this started happening?

Re: Portege - Which key I need to enter the BIOS?

Which key do I use enter the BIOS? F12 is to choose which boot drive but I can't get into BIOS settings.
Thanks

Hi
It would be very useful if you also post what notebook model you have ;)
Anyway, if you can go into boot menu pressing F12 you should be able to access BIOS if you press *F2*.

Impossible to find the key to enter the bios on the pc B50-70

Good day and welcome to the community.
Have a look at page 10 of: https://download.lenovo.com/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/b40_b50_ug_en.pdf
Do you see item #3 (Novo button) on the right-hand side of your laptop? If you push it briefly while the laptop is fully powered off, it should boot to a small menu that has entering BIOS as one of the choices.
Please let us know if this helps.
Regards.
