Instructions For Manual ROM Install (YOGA Downgrade)

This process is not supported by Lenovo and NOT for the faint of heart!
FIRST AND FOREMOST. YOU PERFORM ANY OF THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! Manually flashing your ROM can and might brick your device. If all goes well it shouldn't but all doesn't always go well!!!!
OK with that said this guide is not going to be an absolute "for dummies" process. I have many years of IT experience and this process made me a little nervous.
OK lets get to it.
Step 1 - You will need an account for http://lenovo-forums.ru/.
Go here: http://lenovo-forums.ru/index.php?app=core&module=global&section=register
Use a website translator (Chrome will do most of it for you) and register for an account. The only part of this I had any issue with was the captcha verifcation question. I asked me what the third month of the year is. Yours may be different. I used google translator to answer the question. If you can't muddle through this step you might want to stop here.
Step 2 - Once you are logged in you need to go to this page: http://lenovo-forums.ru/forum/216-%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%88%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BA%D0%B8-lenovo-yoga-table... and download the rom you want. There are a lot of versions on here. I'm not going to guess at which version you want. If you can't figure out which version to pick once again...you might want to stop.
The next page will have an obvious download button for the ROM you select.
Step 3 - Go to settings on your tablet and turn on USB debugging.
Step 4 - Turn off your tablet and connect to a computer (I have only tested this on Windows 7)
You will notice that it will attempt to install but will then disappear. This is a function of the connection. Each time you unplug and plug in your tablet (WITH IT OFF) the driver will attempt to install for a short period of time. Make sure it is doing this.
Step 5 - The driver you should need is locate here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/cypm22rgs2k83ji/MT6577+USB+VCOM+drivers.rar This is a .rar file. You can download 7zip for free if you dont already have a way to extract .rars
You need to bring up device manager on your computer. Plug in your tablet and as soon as it tries to install the driver right click on the device in device manager. Select update driver. Once that dialog is up it doesn't matter if the device disappears. Go ahead and use the driver you just downloaded and install.
Step 6 - The ROM you downloaded should have come with SP Flash Tool. Go ahead and extract that and run flash_tool.exe. If not you can search for SP Flash Tool and download if elsewhere.
Step 7 - Check DA DL Option box. Choose File and Open Scatter loading file. Browse to the extracted ROM you downloaded (if you haven't extracted it somewhere do that now). There will be a file with the name scatter in it. Once you open it the program should autoload the rest of the files.
Step 8 - THIS IS THE POINT OF NO RETURN!!!!!!!!!! - Click the Download button. I got an error about one of the files not being loaded. From my experience this is normal and OK. Once you hit yes it will prepare the files then start trying to connect to the tablet. Connect your POWERED OFF tablet and it should connect and start transferring the ROM. DO NOT INTERRUPT THIS PROCESS. When you are done it should show a green circle.
Step 9 - Assuming all this goes well you should now be able to boot your device with whatever ROM you just transferred. (My yoga 8 takes about 2 mins on first boot. It seems hung but its no)
IF AT ANY TIME BEFORE STEP 8 YOU FEEL UNCOMFORABLE STOP!
I have tried this with a few roms from the site and had no trouble. However this is a very limited test and DOES NOT gurantee you will get the same results.
I know that some parts of this are a little vague. Anyone with some basic knowledge should have no trouble following them. If you feel confused by the directions you may want to stop or at least have someone with a little more experience assist you.
ONCE AGAIN, NO PROMISES that any of this will work...it has for me it might for you.
If you have any specific questions let me know and I'll do my best to answer.

You would be out of your mind to try installing firmware from Russia. Who knows what is in it.

Why are there no instructions for how to install fonts on Frame 10?

The documentation is horrible! It says in many places, reinstall the fonts, but it never says how to do that or where to find out how to do that.
How do I install fonts on Frame 10?
Thanks,
Carl

Which fonts?
I suspect that for fonts you already had prior to FM10, you wouldn't be asking.
Adobe sez: Adobe® FrameMaker® 10 includes the following OpenType® fonts for Western languages: Minion® Pro, Myriad® Pro, Adobe Garamond® Pro, Letter Gothic Standard, News Gothic Standard, and Courier Standard. For symbols, FrameMaker 10 includes Symbol Standard. For Chinese text, Adobe Fangsong Standard and Adobe Kaiti Standard are provided. Kozuka Gothic® and Kozuka Mincho® are provided for Japanese text.
Is the question then a matter of: where on the media and/or in the download are these found?
Once located, and as needed, unpacked, installing them is trivial.
I haven't used FM10, and don't know the location.

Where can I find instructions or manual for using Premier elements 12?

Looking for instructions or manual for using Premier Elements 12. Has Photoshope Elements 7 and Premier Elements 7. I had saved projects which I now cannot retrieve into the 12 versions.

bone
I have Photoshop Elements 7 and Premiere Elements 7 on Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit as well as on Windows 8 64 bit. All is well.
With your Photoshop Elements 7 your Windows 7, what do the Performance numbers look like under Full Editor, Edit Menu/Preferences/Performance?
My Windows 7 64 bit has the Windows XP compatibility mode. Due to the results from some of my recent maneuvers, I wonder about your thoughts of installing Photoshop Elements 7 on the Windows XP Mode side and gaining access to it from the Windows 7 side. You may loss the integration perks of Photoshop Elements 7 and Premiere Elements 7 since they technically will be on different operating systems.
I will explain next time if necessary how that type of idea backfired on me recently with my long standing problem of trying to get Photoshop Elements 12 Full Editor to open in my Windows 7 64 bit desktop.
More later.

Are the instructions for installing Windows xp easy for a REAL NOVICE?

OK. I apologize in advance. I'm really not very computer literate. I just got a intel core duo mini, and would like to run windows programs.
This is what I understand I must do, by reading the threads here...
1. Buy Windows xp
2. Download/Install a program called "bootcamp", I assume from apple.
3. Run bootcamp assistant (the install placed the program in applications->utilities)
* This is where I worry... I found these instructions for completing the installation.
4. create the drivers cd
? Does Bootcamp explain how to do this?
5. partition the hard drive
? Again, does the assistant help you figure out what to do? I've never understood partitions...
6. reboot with the xp install disk in the drive
7. install xp
? I assume windows program will tell you how to do this...
8. install the drivers that you burned on a cd.
? To install the drivers do you double click them? Drag them somewhere?
So sorry I'm asking such basic questions. I've searched here, and looked at the manual, but the answers are often over my head. Thanks in advance to anyone who wants to hold my hand.
Off to ebay to try to buy a "new in box" copy of windows...
Mac Mini, Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.6)
12-inch powerbook g4

I have installed XP home with no problem on the same Mac Mini you have.
Just Look for the bootcamp in Apps folder double click and make your drivers cd. then you make a partition (i made a 10 gb), name it if you want.
After that Restart & insert the Win XP (wSP2) follow instalation as you would do it on a regular PC. The instalation restarts again in windows XP. fill the forms & question asked in win xp for registration, and when finished, eject the Win XP cd restart once more and insert the mac drivers. they will be installed automatically (autorun when inserted)
The most important thing is to have your XP original... Everything goes faster & more stable.
Good Luck

Need instructions for downloading/installing Flash Player

Need instructions for downloading/installing Flash Player in my PC

Hi, This is the Adobe Flash Player Uninstall link:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
This is the Adobe Troubleshooting Guide which you may want also to review. I would suggest using the Manual Installers which you can download and SAVE to your Desktop. Pay attention to any apps using Flash, you may need to Disable any Anti-Virus. Be sure to use the Administrator Account and check Settings. Be sure to Reboot after running the Uninstaller and also after Installing.

Step by Step Instructions for Installing Self Signed Certificate using Certificate Modification Tool

I am looking for some step by step instructions for installing the self signed certificate from my Microsoft SBS 2003 server on a Treo 755p and 750p. In particular I need some help with the form of the actual certificate and how to use the Certificate Modification tool.
Some questions I have are as follows:
1. When I install the certificate on a Windows Mobile device I used an exported version of the certificate. This export is done using the DER x.509 format. Is that the same form I’ll need for the Palm? Do I need some other form? Can/should I just use sbscert.cer file that is generated when SBS is configured?
2. Does the self signed cert need to be installed on the computer being used to update the Palm or do we just need to be able to access the appropriate .CER file?
3. There are three things included in the PalmCertificatesTool.zip file:
                                Trusted CAs (folder)
                                Cert2pdb.exe
                                PalmCertificates.exe
   How do I use these tools?
4. It looks like the PalmCertificates.exe file opens an interface that will allow me to browse to the desired .CER file. Then I suppose I use the < Generate PDB > to create something that needs to then be uploaded to the Palm device? Not having any real experience with a Palm device how do I upload and install this file?
5. Once uploaded do I do something on the device to install it?
If there is some white paper that provides step by step instructions on doing this that would be great.
Thanks,
Walt Bell

Thanks for that.
I have one question after reading the article 43375:
The article has you "Turn of AutoSync" and then "Reset the device". It then indicates the device should be left idle.
The next step relates to running the PalmCertificates.exe, navigate to the certificate file and add it and then run the < Generate PDB > button. Should the device be connected to the computer during this process? If so, at what point after the reset do you connect it to the computer?
Thanks!

How can I sync my photo contents in iPhoto on my iMac to my new iPAD's iPhoto? I follwed all the instructions on manuals for both iPAD and iTunes re syncing, but I cannot find "phone button" under Device name on iTunes page. Please help! Thanks!

I follwed all the instructions on manuals for both iPAD and iTunes re syncing, but after physically connecting iPAD with iMac with USB or via WiFi I still cannot find "phone button" under Device name on iTunes page. Please help! Thanks!
I have been creating a photo book using a lots of photographs on iPhoto, and then I took another photos by using new iPAD which I want to integrate with the original album/book on iMac. I was able to import them from iPAD's iPhoto to iMac's iPhoto. However I cannot import or transfer or sync anything from iMac's iPhoto to that of my iPAD.
So my iPhoto page on iPAD contains only 3 or 4 newly created albums, and no other info. That means no syncing....
I am supposed to be able to work on this project on either of these iPAD and iMac, correct?
I am puzzled. I appreciate for your advice and help.
Thank you!

It doesn't appear under the iPad device on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes, you need to select the iPad device on the sidebar and then select the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes e.g.
And then on the right-hand side :

Error in the instructions for performing a silent install

There's an error in the instructions for performing a silent install of Photoshop Elements:
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/silent-install-instructions-photoshop-element s-1.html
In step 9, the instructions say to use the following command line:
start /wait "path to Setup.exe" /UL%LangCode% /V“SERIALNUMBER=%AOO volume license serial number%"
The correct command line, however, is this:
start /wait "path to Setup.exe" /UL%LangCode% /V"SERIALNUMBER=%AOO volume license serial number%"
See the difference? Look closely at the character after the /V. In the instructions on the website, they put in a "curly quote" character. This obviously needs to be a straight quote.
Interestingly enough, the erroneous command line from the web site will actually work just fine as posted if all you are passing in the /V is the serial number. If, however, you wanted to add a "NODESKTOPICON=1" to disable the creation of a desktop shortcut, for example:
start /wait "path to Setup.exe" /UL%LangCode% /V“SERIALNUMBER=%AOO volume license serial number% NODESKTOPICON=1"
then it fails to run silently.
I post this in the hopes that Adobe will fix the typo in their instructions and save other admins the hours of grief I've been put through today trying to get this working.

Check the response file where you define the SGA memory size for the new database.
You can also choose not to create the database at the installation and do it afterwards, making a specific response file for it. (I'd recommend specially this option. like that you can separate possible installation errors with the ones on the DB creation process).
Good luck.

Install Instructions for Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 running in Boot Camp

These are the instructions I used to install Windows XP Mode on my 27" iMac while booted into Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on the Boot Camp partition, I posted them in a reply to another thread but thought they might be useful as a higher level topic.
Reboot into Windows 7 on your iMac and follow these instructions:
1. Download and install Windows XP mode from the following Microsoft website. You do not need an XP installation disk, XP will be installed automatically by this process (there are three links to click, in order, to install this. The site will perform a Windows Genuine Advantage check and you may need to make sure your browser allows certain items or the install will stall until you do, look for warnings or permissions during installation in the menu bar of the browser):
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx
2. After you complete the 3rd installation step, check your Start menu in Windows 7 and look for Windows Virtual PC. Open it and double click Windows XP Mode (it should be the only thing in there) to boot up XP.
3. You can adjust the amount of RAM you allocate to XP mode by going to the Start Menu --> Windows Virtual PC again, then right click on Windows XP Mode, then choose Settings.
It works great but I can't get it to fill my 27" screen in full screen mode, let me know if you figure out how to do that. --thanks

Instructions, not a question.

Anyone able to give simple 'how to install' instructions for linux ?

I have a G5 1.8 with 3GB RAM; 80/160 internal SATA drives (the 160gb hd has 2 partitions and one with nothing on it) as well as a Lacie external 320 GB firewire drive. The empty partition on the 160gb drive has been created for Linux (if it ever gets installed).
I need to know where I can get a copy (I dont have a preference for any type yet-whatever works for a computer that is just used by me- as I just want to get started); How specifically to install it (I dont know anything about linux except I have heard about it's ease of use and how anyone can install it-except me it seems-I literally don't have a clue how to do it). Please leave out the geek speak (lol or at least just make it understandable for a someone who's pretty much a 'non-geek').
Thanks so much everyone. This has been a 3 month long odyssey for me with everyone I do ask giving me wildly different answers. As I say I have no idea how to do this and just want to get started.
Anyone , please ?

Hi-
There are a few choices for Linux, but there are some peculiarities when it comes to PPC Macs.
I'll give you this article on Ubuntu Linux which has some general discussion.
Anyhow, Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) may be a good version. Check Here.
For Ubuntu, download the software and burn to CD.
Insert the CD into the computer, and, after opening, there should be a screen asking you whether or not you want to run the Live CD. Select Live CD. After loading, the default Ubuntu desktop will show. Once you get to the desktop,select the icon for the full installation of Ubuntu.
Note that you need to install Ubuntu on the primary system disk.
Might have a look at Debian. Complete instructions for installation are Here.

HT1923 After uninstalling and reinstalling itunes according to the instructions for Vista, I do not have QuickTime in my programs. Am I supposed to install QuickTime separately? Isnt it supposed to install with Itunes automatically?

After uninstalling and reinstalling itues according to instructions for Vista, QuickTime doesn't appear in my programs, I don't seem to have it anywhere, Isn't QuickTime supposed to be part of the Itunes installation? Is the absence of it why no ipod will function correctly for me?

Let's first try something relatively simple. Download and save a 64-bit version of the iTunes installer (iTunes64Setup.exe) to your hard drive. (Don't run the install on line.)
Now try right-clicking the installer file and selecting "Run as administrator".
Does that get you past the privileges errors?

Install instructions for CS6 upgrade for WIndows missing - in what order should files be run?

After over 14 days of dealing with the idiots at Adobe Support, opening and closing of 2 cases multiple times, promised emails not being sent (and being blamed for having my email set up to filter out Adobe emails), attempts to charge me for the already approved "free" upgrade, and then having an order for a physical disk version of the CS6 upgrade cancelled by some bonehead, I finally was able to download the CS6 upgrade files. Only to discover that there are no installation instructions for Windows if you did not use the Akamai download manager (which I did not).
There are a total of 6 files in the download directory, all downloaded from the CS6 upgrade download page.
- In what order should the files be run? Just run the .exe files, or do some files need to be extracted/unzipped first?
A second question: my CS5.5 version was never installed, and never registered.
- Will the CS6 upgrade accept its serial number directly, or do I have to do something else through Adobe Support?
-- WTW

Which files: all of them on the CS6 Production Premium upgrade download page.
ProductionPremium_CS6_LS7.7z
ProductionPremium_CS6_LS7.exe
PremierePro_6_Content_LS7.7z
PremierePro_6_Content_LS7.exe
Illustrator_16_Content_LS16.exe
Download_and_Install_Instruction_all.pdf
The last one is useless.
The Speech Analyzer Models were downloaded separately, from another page. I assume they should be installed after everything else is installed and working.

Could someone help me with instructions for doing a clean install for iMac with mountain lion 10.8.4 ?

   Could someone help me with instructions for doing a clean install for Could someone help me with instructions for doing a clean install for an early 2009 iMac 20" with Mountain Lion 10.8.4 ?
   Thank You,
                            leetruitt

   Barney, William, nbar, Galt\'s Gulch:
   A nephew stayed with us to take a course at the local community college last semester. I allowed him use of my mac for research just after I installed Mountain Lion. He decided to "help out" and ran a 3rd party clean and tune up app., Magician. The tune up wiped over 1200 titles of my music in iTunes, also a path of folders with names containing nothing but more empty folders with names. Almost every program I open and run for a short time crashes, also folders and programs are in wrong places, or cannot be located (the nephew, for instance). Up to this time I have always been able to track a problem far enough to resolve it by careful persistence and good luck, but I do not have the tech savvy to solve this one without getting in deeper. I have run disk utility saveral times and always get variations of this:
ACL found but not expected on
"private/etc/resolve.conf"
"private/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel"
"private/etc/rabbd/sites-enabled/control-socket"
     Also, after four years of intense daily use it is cluttered with much junk, and every app that I was curious about, and I am a very curious guy.
   So I know my limits, (and now my nephew). I dumped my pc for a Strawberry iMac a few years ago, and so far every problem I've encountered, or brought on myself, the Mac has resolved with its own inner elegance - in spite of my novice bungels - and now I honestly feel ashamed, in addition to the need to apologize to a machine for allowing a peasant into the Royal Grounds - so I am calling the Wise Ones in for this one.
   Crazy, I know, but to me a Mac represents something far beyond the ordinary input ➛ process ➛ output title/function customarily assigned to a machine - I sense an odd kind of morality involved, one that I need to respect.
    So, these are my reasons for wanting to do a clean install, correctly.
        Thank you, Truitt

Silent install instructions for Photoshop Elements 8 (AOO volume license version on Windows)

Hello,
Does anyone know if the silent installation of Photoshop Elements 8 works the same way the versions 6/7 work? I can't find any article in the support site that states that is does...
Thanks in advance for answering this question.
Joost Brenters
Gemeente 's-Hertogenbosch

Since in the silent install EULA is never accepted and user has not specified any country value, hence I don't believe you will be able to get away from seeing these two dialogs. For registration dialog, there is a way to suppress it during silent install.
You can send a private message to Aanchal and hopefully, she will get back to you with more information.
You are correct, silent install instructions for PSE 7 wont work for PSE 8.
