Was; 4 month ship date?!
On sept 9th I purchased a yoga 13 + extended warranty from lenovo's Canadian site.
My shipdate has been pushed back more than 4 times...
The current shipdate is Dec 31st 2013. That is over 16 weeks.... (114 days)
The only reason I ordered online is because the yoga was not available locally in the month I ordered it. Now it is available locally for cheaper than I paid at any time. Also the lenovo website says that new orders for the yoga will ship within the month.
When I talked to support and they said they do not know why it is taking so long and that I can not cancel my order. Apparently it has gone too far. Even though it will not be made for another 2 months... Unless the date gets pushed back again.
I would like to either get a laptop or cancel my order... I need a laptop to take notes for school.
Is this the typical experince for ordering from lenovo or did I just have bad luck? Also at this point it is propbialy better for me to get a yoga 2 since they will be out long before my yoga 1 ships...

  • HT201272 Download apps/games to the Dell Venue 8 Pro (Windows based tablet)

    My daughters each received a Dell Venue 8 Pro (windows based) tablet for Christmas. I was told that the iTunes apps and games can be transferred to this tablet. I am having trouble doing this. I can pull up the iTunes accounts with all the apps online, but not play or use them on the tablet itself. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    That's normal. You can use your Windows tablets with Windows 8.1 to store your device data with iTunes, but you cannot use iPhone and iPad apps. They are designed to run only in iPhones, iPads and iPods touch with iOS, not in computers

  • Can you enable both Windows Based Authentication and Forms Based Authenication for the same web application?

    Hello Community
        In WS2012 and SharePoint 2013 Server is it possible when creating a
    web application to enable both Windows Based Authentication/Negotiate
    (Kerberos) and enable Forms Based Authentication or does the web application
    use either one or the other?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut 

    Yes , you can use dual authentication on same web application. You can use same web application , at OOB login page you will have option to use windows or form login.
    Or you can extend your web application to a new web app and configure extended web application to use Form Based Authentication(Note extended web application will also show same content database , so the content will same only url will be different)

  • Use Time Capsule with Windows-based Computers and PowerLan Devices

    Hi All -
    I would like to inquire whether I can:
    1) use a Windows-based conputer to access the internal hard disk of Time Capsule; and
    2) connect the Time Capsule with prower lan devices (e.g. Aztech) to extend the wirless coverage.
    Thank you.
    Gary

    Yes.. but.. Long term storage of info is not really wise where you have no backup. TC is not able to back itself up and you will have issues finding anything but manually doing it from windows.
    What windows version?
    Have you installed the airport utility? That makes life much easier, as it adds bonjour for windows and a disk access agent.
    Simply installing the utility may be enough. If not open windows explorer and type the name or IP directly into the address bar.
    Note.. you should use all names on the TC that are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    \\TCname or \\TCIPaddress (where you obviously change to real name (no spaces of course) or IP)
    If you still have issues.. check that you can ping the TC.. and make sure firewalls are not blocking it and your PC is located HOME, not WORK or PUBLIC.

  • HT5639 At present I have Windows programs installed using parallels 7. I now wish to delete all Windows based programs and revert the hard drive back to its original state ie single partition.  How do I go about it??

    At present I have windows based programs installed using parallels 7 on my Imac. I now wish to delete all the Windows programs etc and revert the Hard Drive to its original setting i.e single partition. How do I go about it??

    It's not clear if you installed Windows in a virtual machine or you installed Windows in Boot Camp but you run it in Parallels.
    If you installed Windows in Boot Camp, open "Boot Camp Assistant" (it's in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps to restore your hard disk into one volume. If you installed Windows on a virtual machine, just open Parallels and delete the virtual machine where you have installed Windows

  • Profilemanager for windows based computers and android devices

    Is there anyway  to set up windows based computers or android devices in profile manager?  I assume not so is there another way to do this?

    No ProfileManager is for Apple devices only. If you want to cover Windows or Android instead of or as well as Apple devices then you need to look at an alternative like MobileIron.

  • I have downloaded itunes to my computer which has windows based 7 and I get an error saying Apple Application Support was not found error 2.  What do I need to do.

    I have downloaded itunes to my computer which is windows 7 and I get an error 2 which says Apple Application Support was not found does anyone know how to overcome this error?

    Install 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and use one of them to extract the contents of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe installer file, then try installing AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. Even if it won't install you may get a more useful error message as to why not.

  • I HAVE A MAC NETWORK WITH A HP LASER-JET AND EVERYTHING IS WORKING FINE.  I ALSO HAVE A WINDOWS BASED MACHINE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO PRINT TO AS WELL.  HOW CAN I ACCOMPLISH THIS?

    I HAVE A MAC NETWORK WITH A HP1200 LASER-JET AND EVERYTHING IS WORKING FINE.  THE PRINTER IS CONNECTED DIRECTLY WITH ONE OF MY MAC-MINI"S.  I NOW HAVE A WINDOWS BASED PC AND WOULD LIKE TO PRINT TO IT AS WELL.. HOW CAN I DO THIS?

    Make sure that you Printer Sharing enabled on the Mac Mini.   System Preferences > Sharing > Printer Sharing
    Do the same on the PC
    On the PC, try downloading and installing Bonjour Print Services for Windows v2.0.2
    Run the application on the PC to see if it will discover your printer and install the printer.

  • Using WIndows Based ipod on a Mac -- File back up to Mac

    How do I back up audio files from a Windows based ipod to a Mac so
    that I can restore the ipod to Mac Format? I don't want to loose the
    files on the ipod -- I'd like to copy them to the Mac first...
    The audio files on the ipod exist only on the ipod -- they were part
    of a library I purchased "with" the ipod... The party I purchased the
    ipod from used a Windows based library and I'd like to copy all the
    files onto my Mac and reformat the ipod to mac.
    Thanks very much!

  • Will there be a Windows OS Tablet

    Does anyone know of plans to produce a Windows based Tablet?  My whole house is Win 7 and with Homegroup it would seem that a lot of connectivity and sharing issues may be easier with a Windows OS Tablet.

    There are already windows based tablets for months now.

    When I open the application the following alert appears: "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory." There is a solution on the support site but only for Windows-based Firefox, and I'm a Mac user. I have plenty of room on my hard disk.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    In Mac OS X v10.7, the $HOME/Library folder is a hidden folder.
    Open Finder and use one of these:
    * Go > Go To Folder (Shift-Command-G) and in the dialog type: ~/Library
    * Open the "Go" menu and hold down the Option key to make the Library appear
    You can also use this command in a Terminal window to remove the hidden flag.

  • Windows Presentation Foundation AND BO DESKI

    Hello!
    Could you help us anybody.
    We faced with problem when we created some project used Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF is a graphical subsystem for rendering user interfaces in Windows-based applications) and try to open our application and BO DeskI application simultaneously. The result: when we try to close BO DESKI this application abnormal closed..
    We create test project used Windows Presentation Foundation which include only 2 standard control. And this test very simple application can not work correct with BO DeskI. If need I ready to send Visual Studio 2008 test project.
    We tested this behaviour with BO XI DESKI Release 3.x SP3
    Best regards
    Andrey

    That's interesting - thanks for the greater details.
    It's helpful to rule out possible connections between your application and DeskI.
    You might want to open a support case with SAP, if you need more interactive assistance.   It'll be opened with the DeskI support team, since you're not using any of the SDKs.
    But you may want to run Process Monitor (a tool found on Microsoft's site) to see if there's any file or registry access issues.
    Another useful tool is [modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip], that takes a snapshot of all dlls loaded by a process - to see if there's anything in common between your application and DeskI, and to see if DeskI loads different dlls when your application is running.
