IdeaCentre lenovo desktop windows 7

Hello lenovo community,
I am trying to clean my lenovo computer clean. I don't know how, I am not good with stuff like this. I tried pressing F10 and F11 + Ctrl. The computer never came with a cd. I want to clean my computer without a cd or downloading anything. Is there a way to do it which is intuitive? Thank you.

hi osagiede,
You can use the Lenovo One Key Recovery,
Which Deletes everything on your computer and install a fresh copy of windows.
Turn Off the system then turn it back on and right away start hitting F1
This should boot into Recovery Software, just follow the prompts in doing a factory Back Recovery.
(Everything will bedeleted and will reformat and reinstall Windows)

i got a new lenovo desktop windows 8.1,installed itunes and synced my iphone 4 no problems. then i imported a cd of songs which showed up in recently added but not in main library ,therefore it did not sync to the iphone. how can i get new songs to appear in the main library and sync properly
thanks
john

Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

Problem mit ThinkPad Power Manager Desktop Windows 8.1 Thinkpad W530

Hallo Zusammen
Ich habe auf meinem W530 Windows 8.1 installiert.
Ich habe von der Lenovo Website folgendes Tool heruntergeladen und installiert "ThinkPad Power Manager Desktop Windows 8.1". Das hat alles soweit geklappt.
Nun wollte ich die Einstellungen ändern, es zeigt mir aber nur den Netztbetrieb an ich kann keine Einstellungen ändern für dne Akkubetrieb (Siehe Bild)
Hat jemand eine Ahnung wie ich die Einstellungen für den Akkubetrieb ändern kann.
Ich bin fast am verzweifeln, denn der Energie-Manager von Windows ist absoluter schrott, der Akku ist ständig leer.
Besten Dank
Chrigge
Gelöst!
Gehe zu Lösung.

Dank für deine Antwort.

Ich habe es ausprobiert, aber es ändert sich garnichts an den Einstellungen, weder wird die Bildschirmhelligkeit verringert noch hält der Akku wirklich länger.
Ich habe das Gefühl, dass die Windows einstellungen den Powermanager von Lenovo übersteuern.

Ansonsten wenn du denn Akku länger halten willst unten auf Maximale Energiesparung klicken.
Dieses Vorgehen ist für mich nicht so praktikabel, denn ich möchte die Einstellungen lieber einzeln vornehmen, um die Akkulebensdauer und Performance an meine Bedürfnisse anzupassen.

Desktop Windows Composition and Windows 8.1 Pro x64 [SOLVED]

Hi, I'm Jenn, also new to these forums.
I stumbled upon a problem when switching from Windows 7 x64 to Windows 8.1 Pro x64.
I have the EXACT same setup, same laptop, same hardware, same programs, same configuration, everything.
Windows 7 never did anything like the problem I now have in Win 8.1. Here's the problem;
Whenever I run more than 1 3D application, after 1-5 minutes the screen blinks, and hangs the graphics of one, some or all the programs (randomly). It doesn't hang the actual program (or game), it just stops rendering the graphics -- I can still hear the software's
sound and if I click around, I can hear myself interacting with it.
I have ALL the latest drivers for the computer, motherboard, ALL devices including graphics cards etc. Also ALL Windows Updates installed, nothing more to install.
All of the programs I use is specifically set to use only the nVidia adapter, forcibly through the nVidia Control Panel, so it's not a switching graphics problem because it's a laptop. Also, never was a problem in Windows 7 either.
Here's what I gathered from event viewer right when it happened;
A logon was attempted using explicit credentials.

So as you can see, DWM is logging in and out some account that can be all the way up to DWM-7 from what I've seen so far. It just logs in, sets some parameters and the directly logs out.
This is a ONE-user system, Only my user account is on it, and remote login has been disabled.
In Windows 7, at least DWM could be disabled - not that I ever had to, because it worked with all my stuff, but seeing as DWM is screwing up totally in Win8, I thought I'd just disable the server, but it's nowhere to be found.
Also, it seems Microsoft changed how it works, the system has been redesigned to generate an OK even if it's still on, like this example below:
DwmEnableComposition( DWM_EC_DISABLECOMPOSITION ) does not work on Windows 8, even though it returns S_OK. Confirmation is by calling DwmIsCompositionEnabled(), which shows the former function had no effect.
There's only 1 dwm.exe running.
There's only 1 user logged in (me).
There's only 1 user in the userlist (except for the Administrator account).
Running only 1 of the softwares at a time is not an option for me, either for work or for home use, so how can I fix this?

Hi Jenn,
Please take a look at the following article.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh848042(v=vs.85).aspx
In Windows 8, Desktop Window Manager (DWM) is always ON and cannot be disabled by end users and apps.
I suggest you to download and install the graphic driver from the manufacturer and check if this issue still exist.
As you may have two graphic cards, we could temporally disable one and check if there are compatibility issues.
Best regards,

Desktop Window Manager Service on Windows 7 Starter - Any Reason to Leave It Running?

Hello everyone,
-As per title, I'd like to know whether is it better to turn off Desktop Window Manager Session Manager (UxSms) service on Windows 7 Starter - or not. I mean changing the service's default startup type from Automatic to Manual (or Disabled).
-In Windows 7 Starter, the Aero theme and desktop composition are not available at all (not even a basic/partial one), so letting Desktop Window Manager (DWM.exe) to continuously run is useless as it does absolutely nothing. Is my deduction correct?
-All opinions and suggestions are welcomed, thank you very much.
Regards,
-Musafir_86.

Desktop Window Manager
The desktop composition feature, introduced in Windows Vista, fundamentally changed the way applications display pixels on the screen. When desktop composition is enabled, individual windows no longer draw directly to the screen or primary display
device as they did in previous versions of Windows. Instead, their drawing is redirected to off-screen surfaces in video memory, which are then rendered into a desktop image and presented on the display.
Desktop composition is performed by the Desktop Window Manager (DWM). Through desktop composition, DWM enables visual effects on the desktop
as well as various features such as glass window frames, 3-D window transition animations, Windows Flip and Windows Flip3D, and high resolution support.
The Desktop Window Manager runs as a Windows service. It can be enabled and disabled through the Administrative Tools Control Panel item, under Services, as Desktop Window Manager Session Manager.
Many of the DWM features can be controlled or accessed by an application through the DWM APIs. The following documentation describes the features and requirements of the DWM APIs.

No longer able to drag remote desktop window

I used to be able to grab the "Connection Bar" that's pinned to the top of a maximized remote desktop window, and drag the window away from the edge, over to another monitor, then push it against the top edge to have it become maximized on the
other monitor.
But now, when I grab the Connection Bar and try to drag, the bar will only slide left and right. I can't unmaximize the window by dragging the bar away from the edge. I can only change the position of the bar along the top edge.
Of course, I can click the "Restore" icon on the bar and un-maximize it, then drag and dock the window in another monitor. But the point is, I used to be able to do it in one single fluid stroke, now I have to explicitly unmaximize. It used to
be the case that just dragging the window away from the edge caused the window to unmaximize, but not now.
Is there a setting that controls this "drag-to-restore-down" that I'm talking about? Or has this been intentially changed by some update?

Hi,
This is weird, I can drag it as my mind without any obstruction.
I suspect this is interfered by some software conflict, please test in Clean Boot mode to see if this issue persists.

1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

I synced my Iphone 3G to my desktop Windows computer - now I own a Macpro and want to use that as my phones synced comp. How do I switch?

I synced my Iphone3G to my desktop windows computer. I now own a MacPro and want to swap my phone sync to this laptop instead. Any ideas how?

Try this way:
set up your iTunes account, disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new Mac and right click on it in the device list and choose backup.iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

Safari extensions download in Parallels Desktop Windows format

For some reason, when I download a new extension for Safari 5, it downloads in Parallels Desktop Windows format (the icon has the two red parallel lines on it, and clicking on it opens Parallels Desktop). How can I get it to download in the correct format for my Mac's version of Safari 5?

Hi Don
does it have the .safariextz extension?
if so - use Finder-Get Info on one to change the 'open with' to Safari & choose 'change all'

This ANE doesn't support Desktop(Windows) platform

When I try to add ANE extension to FB 4.7 get this error "This ANE doesn't support Desktop(Windows) platform". Is this a bug ?

By default, when an ANE is imported in to a Flex/ActionScript mobile project, it lets you know what are the un-supported targets for that ANE( i.e., both iOS and Android on device and current desktop) whichever are applicable. So its not a bug, it is the expected behaviour.
