Installed Windows7 Ultimate on thinkpad w530 but many of the drivers did not get installed

Has anyone else had a similar problem 
My only option appears to be downloading all the drivers from the lenovo site individually and then installing drivers for each. But, I am surprised that Windows did not find the drivers for each of these components, especially the wireless adapter

Hi suhaim, welcome to the forums,
did your W530 come with a version of Windows 7 pre-installed and did you create the recovery discs?
The easiest way to install Ultimate would have been to run an "Any Time Upgrade" of the pre-installed Windows 7 system using your Ultimate license number, if you created recovery discs this is still possible after recovering the system. (Assuming bit versions sre the same).
Another method of obtaing all drivers after a clean install would be to install ThinkVantage SystemUpdate this should get and install the drivers for you.

    I have sync'ed my ipad with my new mac book air, but some of the images did not download to the computer. 
    I need these pictures! 
    Iphoto does not see these images.  How can I download them into my computer?
    I have tried using a PC to view the iPad as a HD, but it also does not find the images... yet I can visualize them!!!  I need to make sure I do not lose these pictures!!!!  How can I get them into my new computer?

    In iOS 7 you cannot transfer photos and videos anymore to or from your iPad as if it were a USB device.
    You must sync them using iTunes:

  • TS1424 I have purchased and downloaded an album, but some of the songs did not download correctly as the songs are not complete.  How do I redownload them without purchasing the album again.

    I have purchased and downloaded an album, but some of the songs did not download correctly as the songs are not complete.  How do I redownload them without purchasing the album again.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the track and try redownloading fresh copies.
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • HT204406 I just downloaded music from Itunes Store but all of the music did not download.

    I just downloaded music from Itunes Store but all of the music did not completely download.

    You could try emailing iTunes support, giving them your order number, etc. or you could just take the hit and pay the 99p.  I know what I would do.

  • HT201269 I am trying to transfers my iPad 2 apps to me new iPad Air, but some of the apps did not back up on the computer.  Every time I go to back up the old device, some of the apps don't get transferred.  My big concern is the Olive Tree Bible Study wo

    I have the Olive Tree Bible Study app, which is one of the best tools I have ever used for study and within the app I purchased several resources/concordances that are very useful (plus they had up in the wallet, but very worth it)
    I had it on my iPad 2 and when I went to back it up on my iMac, the app doesn't populate in the apps tab.  This also applies to some of my games but I'm not that worried about losing those.
    I am trying to get those particular apps on my iPad Air.
    Has anyone else come across an issue like this?
    Thanks and I appreciate anyone's time.

    Go into the App Store from your iPad and select Purchased, then select Not onThis iPad, and download the apps that you want.  Because you already own them you can download them again for free ... provided that you are using the same Apple ID as you used when you originally purchased them.
    In fact when I look up the Olive Tree app, it seems like the main app is free in any case.
    Once you are in the app look for some option to restore purchases.

  • In the iOS 6 update it clearly stated that it is compatible with the IPod 4th generation. But when I updated I did not get Siri! How do I get it?

    Help

    To clarify, iOS 6 is compatible with the 4th generation iPod Touch, but that doesn't mean you get all the features. Siri will only be available on the 5th generation iPods.

  • Why did my iPad2 get Siri on the first update of ios6. But my friends iPad2's did not get siri?

    Does anyone know why my ipad2 got siri? I heard they weren't supposed to.

    iPad 2 cannot have siir. If you are usre its an iPad 2 then its either jailbroken or its a differnet App that can wpork like Siri.
    If nopt you likely have an iPad 3. They are identical in terms of looks so its easy to get confused.
    But yes the iPad 2 cannot support Siri in any way.

  • I just bought a album from itunes, but some of the songs did not download. any thoughts?

    why don't all the songs download when you buy an album?

    Hello camp3199,
    I am sure you are eager to download and listen to the album you purchased.  If you click on the cloud next to the songs, it should start downloading the track.  If the song does not download or is not visible in iTunes, I recommend the following steps.
    First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted.  You can use the steps in this article:
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If the album does not download after following the steps in that article, I recommend trying to download the album from the list of past purchases.  As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the album, you will not be charged again.
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12491
    If you are still not able to download the album, I recommend reporting this issue to the iTunes Store:

  • HT4137 I have just bought an iPad3. I have connected it to my computer.It has synched  but many of the apps I have on my iPad 1 are not appearing despite showing installed in the app store. How do I restore them?

    I have just bought a new iPad. I have connected it to my powerbool and snched it but many of the apps on my iPad1 are not appearing on the new iPad and showing installed in the app store. Please can anyone help me with this?

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

  • Problems with upgrading my iphone to v6 - I am not happy!  It deleted all of my apps, so I had to reload them.  Now many of the apps do not work - they keep asking for my apple ID and PW but then never open.

    I kept getting reminders to update my iphone to v6, so I did so and I am not happy!  It deleted all of my apps, so then I had to reload them.  Now many of the apps do not work - when I try to open them they keep asking for my apple ID and PW and when I enter this it just goes away and never opens.  Anyone else had this issue?

    Happened to me once awhile back. The exact same thing. What I did to get everything working again was open up itunes on PC and click on "Apps" section (not the one in your iphone section, but the one in the "Libraries" section near the top). Then proceed to totally delete all of the apps that aren't working (if it asks if you want to send to recycle bin click yes). Re-sync phone, which will remove them from the phone. And, finally, re-install them. It was a pain, but the only thing that worked. Hope it works for you. Good luck!

    There is a problem on my mac mini. I install windows7 in my mac then i cancelled the installation did not finish..after that i saw the black screen on my monitor untill now the monitor is black..

    It maybe trying to boot from the incomplete install.
    Try starting your Mac while holding down the Option key, it should then list all the available boot drives including the Mac OS X one. Boot from the Mac one and then you can wipe the damaged PC one or set the Mac to stay booting in to OS X.

  • I installed Lion, but did not get the multi touch gestures feature. Also my "front row" is gone.

    I installed Lion, but did not get the multi touch gestures feature. Also my "front row" is gone.

    What model computer do you have? some early trackpads will not support all gestures.
    Front Row was dropped by Apple in Lion. I beleive it can be recovered from Snow Leopard, I haven't tried it myself.

  • I installed Mac OS 10.9.4, but did not get iLife and iWorks. How can I obtain these

    I installed Mac OS 10.9.4, but did not get iLife and iWorks. How can I obtain these? Somebody talked about redemption codes, but I did not find any extra information. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance and best regards

    If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, install them from the computer's original disks.
    If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, log into the Mac App Store with the Apple ID used to register the computer, click on the Purchases tab, and download them.
    If neither of these is applicable, buy them from the Mac App Store.
