Ideapad A720 Windows 8 Pro can't install the bluetooth driver

I upgraded to Windows 8 than went to the Lenovo site and down loaded a few of the drivers that it needs (primarily the NVIDIA video driver), however Windows 8 forced me to uninstall the Bluetooth driver before doing the upgrade. 
Downloading the Bluetooth A720 Windows 8 driver from the support site doesn't seem to work.  You run the install, it unpacks than dies and does run.  trying to force the setup to run from the driver folder throws an error saying I am missing the blue tooth license.
Any guess here?  everything else seems to be work on Windows 8 great, multi-touch 27" is gorgeous just opening bing.com is a cool experience.

Hi,
Have you tried these command to uninstall and reinstall the right key?
slmgr.vbs /upk
slmgr.vbs -ipk YOUR-ACTIVATION-KEY-HERE
slmgr.vbs -ato
As I known, during clean installation of Windows 8 pro, we need to enter the product key.
What kind of Windows 8 pro did you try to install on your Windows 8 PC? Is this just a pro package? or full version?

    Licenses are platform specific, so the Windows version will only work on the Mac if the Mac has Windows emulation software installed.  The other option would be to trade your Windows version for a Mac version, but then you lose the use of it on the Windows machine.

  • Satellite M60: can not install the newest driver for my graphic card

    Can not install newest driver for my graphic card
    Satellite M60
    ATI MOBILITY RADEON X700

    Hello
    First of all I really dont understand why you start two topics with the same theme. It is much better to have one topic with good content and interesting comments. Am I right? ;)
    Anyway, in your case it is interesting that Toshiba use adapted drivers because of hardware protection. That means that graphic card will not be forced to run at the maximum level. Hardware cooling in notebooks is very problematic and high temperature can result with overheating or hardware damage. All hardware components are placed on small place. Graphic card produce a lot of warmness and it is not so good for all other hardware.
    When you use non-Toshiba driver graphic card will be forced to run faster. Because of that every notebook manufacturers dont support usage of third part drivers. The fact is that hardware protection is priority.
    I didnt make any experiments but according to some reports on this forum there is way how to install non-Toshiba graphic card driver.
    Please check this forum and you will find many comments about that. One interesting topic is http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=18063&messageID=66186

  • Can't install Intel graphics driver on W530

    When I try to install Intel's latest graphics driver (so I can run OpenCL apps) it fails with "Operating system not supported".  This is on Win7 64-bit, and the drivers are for that OS.
    Moderator Note; subject edited on this & further posts; W580 -> W530

    Oops!  I meant to type W530, not W580.
    So, it looks like I need to uninstall the existing graphics drivers, through the Windows device manager, then install the Intel driver.  Is there any danger in doing this?  What if my display stops working?  Thanks for the help!  -- David
    I would recommend to uninstall using the add/remove programs and using device manager. Uninstall the driver from device manager will most likely remove just the driver and not the rest. You should find the add/remove programs in the control panel.
    I cannot say for sure this will solve the problem, but i had no problems using the drivers from Intel in the past as long as i do not have the driver from Lenovo installed already. So it might be worth a try. There should not be any danger doing so, but of course when you work with a computer anything can happen.

  • Lenovo b560 can't install nvidia display driver

    hello i've learned that lenovo b560 computers got 2 graphic cards one is intel hd graphics other is nvidia 310m but i can't install the nvidia driver it always gives the no compatible drivers found error :/

    hi Frost1,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The B560 with Intel+Nvidia graphics uses the Nvidia Optimus Technology to switch between the Intel GPU (for power saving) and the Nvidia GPU (for applications that requires more processing power).
    If you have Windows 7, try the following:
    1. Restart the machine and hit F8. On the menu, select "Disable driver signature enforcement".
       - Sample image
    2. Install these drivers then reboot:
    1st:   Intel Onboard Graphics Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)
    2nd:  NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)
    If you still get the error, can you PM me your serial number or indicate your machine type (e.g., 0679-3JU) to check the PC specs.
    Regards

  • When I try to install Windows on iMac with Bootcamp I get this message,"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."

    I try to get Windows 7 on my iMac 21.5-inch but on the Bootcamp Assistant I get this message,"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." Please help me and thank you.

    I have that problem too.  There's many other discussion threads as well.  Either Apple doesn't realize they have a problem, or they do and simply don't care.  Either way, not good.
    There is a workaround that I'm going to try next.  Go to this webpage:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
    Scroll down to the middle of the webpage.  Hit "Expand All".  Now, search the webpage for the Apple product name of your computer.  It should be something like "MacBook Pro, 17-inch, Early 2008".  If you're unsure what you have, open "About This Mac" (upper left corner of your screen, Apple menu), and hit "More Info".
    Now that you've found your computer, read across the table, to the version of Windows that you want to install (32-bit or 64-bit).  Hopefully you'll find a "4" or "5" there.  Click on that number, to go to the download page for the drivers that you need.  If you just see an empty box there, then you're out of luck....
    Hopefully there will be drivers.  Download those, unzip, and then copy to a USB stick that has been formatted for MS-DOS FAT (or FAT32).  Use Disk Utility to format your USB stick if necessary.  Now, you have the drivers you should have gotten from the Boot Camp Assistant download.  You should then be able to go back to Boot Camp Assistant and follow the instructions from there.
    Hope it works!

  • When trying to download Boot Camp Windows Support Software, error says: "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."

    I use a Macbook Pro 13" mid 2010 on Mavericks and I've tried using the Boot Camp assistant to download support software for Windows 7. This gives the error "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
    Further, I tried to separately download Boot Camp 4 and 5. When I do this and try to install from Windows 7, it says that this version of Boot Camp is not for this computer and doesn't install. The result is that I have Windows 7 working and installed, but am unable to use the trackpad to rightclick, brightness settings, etc.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    You need to run Bootcamp Assistant and select only the menu item to download the Windows Support Software. Follow the instructions. The download servers are extremely slow therefore it may take several hours to get the download.

  • My MacBook Pro is still running the OS X 10.5.8, can I install the Mavericks directly? Or could you advise which latest system is able to be installed for my notebook?

    Hello, my MacBook Pro is still running the OS X 10.5.8, can I install the Mavericks directly? Or could you advise which latest system is able to be installed for my notebook?

    First up, we don't know what kind of MacBook you have so we can't tell you what OS you can run.  You can use this instruction to identify which MacBook model you have:  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1635.  Alternatively, from the Apple menu open "About this Mac".  From the window that pops up, click "More Info".  This will open the system profiler.  Click "Hardware" and locate the model identifier, there.
    Next, you need to determine if your system can even run Mavericks before you can go about installing it.  These are the requirements:
    To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
    MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later),
    MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or later)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Your Mac also needs:
    OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed
    2 GB or more of memory
    8 GB or more of available space
    Lastly, as you'll note from the above, you can't update to Mavericks (or Mountain Lion or Lion) from 10.5.8.  Mavericks is only available in the App Store.  You need to be running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) in order to download and install any OS from Lion (10.7) and up.  You can buy Snow Leopard here:  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

  • Hi i am trying to install windows to my macbook through boot camp and i get this message Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.!!!what can i do???please help me!

    Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server. this is the message that i get a few days now that i am trying to install windows through boot camp to my macbook!does anybody knows what i can do????

    You keep it on the usb stick for after you boot into Windows. From Windows you install the Windows Support software on the stick. Do you realize that you need to buy and install Windows? The Windows Support software you downloaded is only the Windows drivers for your hardware.
    Read the Boot Camp installation instructions and help guides located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

  • I have 32 bit iTunes on a 64 bit Windows. Can't install 64 bit because the 32 bit will not uninstall (or run).

    I have 32 bit itunes on a 64 bit Windows. Can't install 64 bit itunes because the 32 bit willl not uninstall.

    Excellent news.
    That one can sometimes hit people if they've used the PC Mover utility to transfer a 32-bit iTunes program onto a 64-bit system. Similar issues can arise if a 32-bit Bonjour or 32-bit AMDS get transfered across to a 64-bit system by PC Mover, so it might pay to keep a weather eye out for that (if you've used PC Mover).
