Hey, have you had any luck resolving it so far? Best regards Hein (who's realy frustrated by now ;-) All I get to work is dumb bluetooth headset .. but the moment it gets more complicated then that, it will just not connect after pairing ..

IdeaPad S400 Touch Windows 8 reinstall

Hello to all. This is my first post on this forum. I bought a IdeaPad S400 Touch several months ago (October) and one of the first things I did was create a backup image on an external hard drive using the tool in Windows 8. I then wiped the hard drive completely in order to install Ubuntu. I was going to put Windows 8 back ont he machine and have the two running side by side. However, I have not been able to reinstall Windows 8. I physically took the hard drive out of the laptop and completely erased it using Disk Utility on my Mac, making sure that the disk was reformatted as MS-DOS. I also created a separate partition, named Lenovo, of 20GB that contains the backup files from my original backup. Still, using OneKey recovery doesn't work, and I am unable to reisntall Windows 8. Please , would someone tell me what I am doing wrong and if there is any way to fix this mess I have created? I will say things were so much easier back in the good old days when PCs shipped with recovery media. Thanks.

Hi Robert,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I’m sorry to hear that the OKR (One Key Recovery) is not working as expected in your S400 touch Laptop, let me inform you that once the partition structure HDD (Hard Disk Drive) gets modified the hard disk recovery corrupts, if you have created the recovery media then you can use them and restore the Operating System. Please try running OneKey Recovery from hard disk, power off the laptop then press Novo button instead of pressing power button and check if it works and if OKR does not work. I suggest you to contact our Technical Support Team to get the details of the nearest Authorized Service Center to get the issue analyzed.

Ideapad S400 Touch - HDMI to VGA problem

Hi,
I need to connect Ideapad S400 Touch to projector which has only VGA input. Therefore, I've bought such converter:
http://www.amazon.com/Black-Input-Adapter-Converter-Laptop/dp/B007KFVQXI/ref=pd_sim_e_4
Unfortunately, whatever I connect through it (projector, tv, PC monitor) I always have no signal...
I tried HDMI direct connection toTV - works
I tried HDMI to DVI converter and connect to PC monitor - works
but when I use HDMI to VGA like one mentioned above - always "no signal"
Please help. I bought this laptop and now find it useless as I present on beamers very often and am completly stacked now...
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated!
Thanks!

hi ro174748,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
The connection you need is a active coverter.
Passive connection just passes the signal and relay the signal without converting it.
Active connection converts the signal and relay it to the other end.
HDMI send / recieve digital Signal while VGA send / recieve analog
Your corrent covertion will not work if the device cannot recieve digital signals through VGA.
You will need an active converter such as this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812400359
HDMI to DVI operates with Digital signal so no covertion needed, that's why it worked.
Here is a simple discussion about this issue.
Hope this helps
Cheers!

Ideapad s400 Touch
Windows 8.1
Hello ive recently made a factory reset on windows 8.1, everything worked ok and I decided to update and shutdown. Today i turned on the machine everything seemed ok and proceed to shutdown again, and when I come back 2 hours later I cannot power on the machine there is no indication that theres power in the system nothing boots up no sounds, no leds nothing. I tried changing ac outlets, removing the battery, doing a discharge pressing the power button, and tried using the Onekey Recovery button on the side of the power button. I have no idea what went wrong, im around machines all the time and where this laptop is I have other computers aside. Im not sure if i need to remove the bios battery or what step should i take.
Thanks in Advanced.

hi x8lars,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Can you try changing the power plan on your system to a High Performance Settings,
Also check the Advanced power settings and make sure that the Maximum Processor start and minimum are set the same with the Plugged in.
Let me know your settings,
Cheers!

Ideapad s400 touch bios or other hidden power management while on battery? or battery just weak?

Hi,
I have problems with performance when unplugging my ideapad s400 touch, and it does not seem to be related to windows or intel graphics power settings.
Example, while plugged in with full battery (not charging), I can play Skyrim at 600x800 with 28-30 fps (all shadows turned off and with reduced textures, in case you are wondering how that is possible)
But when I unplug, or the computer is charging, the game will be only barely playable at 480x640 with 18-26 fps (besides res. of course same settings).
In both cases, the intel graphics options and in the Lenovo Energy Management is set to the high/max performance settings.
So I am wondering if there are some hidden Bios power management or some other hidden power management going on, when it is unplugged or charging?
Or if simply the battery can not deliver the same juice as when it is plugged in?
Thanks for any help,
L

Connecting my iphone to wall charger makes my iphone touch not work properly

I have a iphone 3g and a orignal apple wall charger when i connect my iphone to charger it makes my iphone touch not work properly, but it charges the phone properly.the data cable is also working properly. So can any one help me out here.thanks

Holy smokes, I thought I was losing my mind, but that's the exact same thing that's started happening to me since this whole 4.3.1 "upgrade" disaster started - hooking it up to the wall charger overnight, wake up in the morning and it's a brick requiring multiple attempts to restart.
It's also randomly and spontaneously crashing - it'll be on the table or couch beside me, I'll catch movement out of the corner of my eye and look over and see a silver apple.

Nokia Lumia 720 Touch not working even after repla...

Hi ,
I had bought lumia 720 on 31/05/2013 , but on 28/12/2013 the touch was not working or the touch was working on its own. Since my phone was in warranty then, they replaced the touch free of cost. But again from 20/08/2014 my phone is having the same problem, touch not working. When i showed it to Nokia care, they told that again they need to replace the touch , it will cost around Rs. 7950 (since my phone was out of warranty this time)... My question is, within 1 year 2 months , twice the touch pad has problem. What kind of phone it is .... Please think before buying Nokia touch phones, I think still they are far behind in touch screen technology ( no offense :-) )....
Not only me, one of my friend also facing same problem with Lumia 720 ....

Not beeing familiar with other countries consumer laws and consumer rights, I can only speak for my self and Norway. But as far as I'm concerned I would have expected extended rights for the new parts and the labour. - If however the fault can relate to the parts involved with the mentioned replacement.
But if this is not possible in your country, there isn't much to do other than repair it for pay or leave it.

Is there a fix to touch not working? All updates are done. Intermittent problem

Is there a fix to touch not working? All updates are done. Intermittent problem

Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
If that does not help, take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs check it out to make sure there is not a hardware issue.

1st Gen iPod touch not working correctly?

I have a 1st generation 8GB iPod Touch. It's not working correctly.
My biggest problem is that, unexplaiably, certain areas of the screen don't seem to register touch anymore. There is a sort of "L" shape on the left and bottom edges of the screen that won't register touch, making it impossible to move applications to the previous page on the home screen and making it hard to use the keyboard/buttons while in portrait mode. It's extremely frustrating to try to change the volume while playing a song, as I now have to either put the iPod in sleep mode then double tap the home button or flip it to cover flow and double tap the home button to do it.
http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e140/Vipershark/IMG_0001.png
(Highlight the image to see it better.)
This is a screenshot of the working/non-working areas that I made using the Whiteboard application. The white area that you see (excluding the little half circles of black which are extended brush strokes and not actually working areas) is the area that doesn't work. I can't seem to figure out why it happened, as I've never dropped or otherwise damaged it. It just happened one day, and I don't know why.
But I can't fix it. I've tried everything. Upgrading (I'm now running iPhone OS 3.0 which still didn't fix the problem.) didn't work, restoring didn't work, deleting everything and restoring from factory settings didn't work.
I'm also having a few other problems as well, though they're not as bad. My home button seems to stop working sometimes and sometimes the entire screen witll stop registering touch until I put the iPod to sleep and turn it back on. It also seems to go a lot slower than usual.
My iPod is less than a year old. Can you help?

Vipershark,
I had a very similar problem this past weekend with my 1G 8GB iPod touch. But with me, just the left side of the screen wasn't registering my touch. I could still access the bottom section, which you cannot.
The good news for me is that I fixed it and I hope it works for you as well. What fixed it for me was resetting all my settings. To do this, go to the settings icon, then click on general, and then on the very bottom is reset. Choose "reset all settings."
Apparently this is different than a restore through iTunes, which you tried. I also tried that earlier and it did not help.
Of course, the reset solution I used relies on you being able to access all of the correct buttons, so I hope you can!
Please let us know if this works for you. If not, since it is less than a year old, it is still under warranty. Contact Apple and see what they can do.

Home button on ipod touch not working!!! how can i fix it? no warranty!!!!

my ipod touch home button is not working everything on the ipod works fine but the home button. i have to turn off the ipod and then turn it back on as a substitute fix. has anyone else had this problem? if you have any ideas or know how to fix it please help!!!! I've read that if i put a drop of alcohol or acetone on the home button it should fix the problem but im affraid of adding liquid to it and it stop working all together.

You can continue using the iPod without the home button:
Hardware Defect: Home or Power Button

New iPod Touch not working with G3 iMac

I got a new iPod Touch (4 gig) for Christmas. Tried plugging it into my iMac Power PC G3, and I get an error message. ( error OxE000001). Is my iMac too old to work with the iPod touch?
Also as a second issue, I have a wireless network, but I don't have it broadcasting it's name for security. When I turn on my lap top, if it doesn't automatically find the wifi network, I just type in the network name, and it pops up.
Any way to do this with the iPod Touch? (Type in the network name, even though it's not broadcast)
I'll also list this question on the WIFI section.

Ken;
I AM running with iTunes 9.0.2. in my slot loading G3 iMac. There is no special Hack.
You tried to help me earlier, when my G3 just would not work after I upgraded Safari and iTunes. I ended going to the Genius bar, where they worked on it for hours to get it going again. They installed earlier versions of both programs.
I was going to keep it that way, until I was given an iTouch for Christmas. The iMac just did not see it. I was resigned to updating my iTouch through my son's iBook.
In a question I had about upgrading my wireless network, John Galt said his 500mhz G3 worked OK with the iTouch. Over two weeks I slowly installed what he had, (or close to it) I think Safari has a G3 version, that I may have missed when you were helping me.
The last thing I upgraded was iTunes 9.0.2. After three or four tries, and plugging in the iTouch USB cable directly into the iMac, the iTouch was recognized! It seems to work fine over the past week or so.
Some odd things I have to live with. When I plug in the iTouch, iPhoto will start and ask about downloading pictures from the iTouch. I have to manually start iTunes if it is not already on. It does not automatically start like it does with my iPod nano.
Also I did not realize how slow this machine is, I thought down loading a CD through a La Cie DVD/CD player at 1.3x speed was fast. My son's iBook downloads a CD a 9 x speed! Oh well... slow but steady.....
