Issue with Lenovo X201 tablet that has me stumped!

This is my laptop I use for school and I desperately need it functioning. PLEASE HELP! I usually always leave it on but one day I came home from work and it was off. The led lights (including charging light) was off. I thought the charger went bad and ordered a new one. Well, it decided to start charging again but when I power on the unit the lights all start to come on like it's going to work and the HHD light briefly lights up for only a second or 2 and the HHD light goes back off. The blu tooth light and all others stay on, the HHD light never flashes or comes back on again while powered on and there's no display at all. I've tried (while unplugged and battery out) holding the power button, repeatedly tapping the power button, holding the power button several times while holding it in several seconds each time and I even had the power button pressed for over 24 hours while unplugged and battery out. I've taken it apart and seen no visual damage to the main board as well. I am completely stumped as to why it won't even try to start up. It doesn't allow me to press the "ThinkVantage" button or any of function keys. Can anyone out there in the Lenovo or ThinkPad community help, please! I really need this functioning again for school, which starts in about 2 weeks. Thank you!

Have you tried unplugging all peripherals from the motherboard (mouse, keyboard, screen connector, and all other stuff except for the power button connector) to see if the motherboard will power on by itself. If it doesn't power on then the only solution is to get a new motherboard. If the mainboard does power on by itself then, something inside your laptop is shorting out the motherboard and thus why it won't turn on. You will have to plug in one item at a time to see what is shorting out. Hope this helps.

  • Issue with publishing an application that has been updated (application with multiple versions)

    We are using App-V 5.0 SP1.
    I have a package that will need to get patched whenever new security updates are released.  The first version of the application always works fine, but when I update the application and re-publish it, a normal user is unable to pull down the new version. 
    When this occurs I am able to get everything going by logging into the server with an admin account and performing  a sync (Get-AppvPublishingServer | Sync-AppvPublishingServer; Get-AppvClientApplication").  What is it about applications that
    have been updated that would cause this behavior?
    The issue is similar to what the hotfix below addresses, but since we are on 5.0 SP1 I am unsure if this applies still.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2799153?wa=wsignin1.0
    You publish a Version 1 package of an application on a server
    You log on to the client by using a user account
    You confirm that the Version 1 package of Application Virtualization 5.0 is synched, and then you log off the client.
    You publish a Version 2 package of an application, and then you remove the Version 1 application
    You log on to the client by using a user account.
    The application is not published to the user

    Hello,
    Have you verified the event-logs if the attempt to publish the package is visible there (successful or failed)?

  • We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 for our church worship service; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing.  Has this issue been resolved?  Thank you!

    We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 in our church worship service; we have front screens and a stage display monitor ; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing.  Has this issue been resolved?  Now that we are 2 upgrades behind, I'm getting little concerned.  Thank you!

    Oh, well that was a whole other kettle of fish:
    Oh the G4 I attempted to install iLife '08 before Lepoard was available. About the only thing that installed cleanly was iPhoto. I ended up reinstalling everything back to iLife '06, and then upgrading back to the current stable version of the iLife '06 version. I didn't attempt a reinstall until after I upgraded to Leopard.
    When I did reinstall, I made a iLife '06 folder, copied all iLife apps into it, and upgraded. Seemed to work, except for the part where iMovie gets left behind and iDVD is only mostly functional.
    When I installed on the other 2 machines, it was after installing Leopard and all upgrades. On those 2 machines, I didn't bother with the copy, I just moved everything to the iLife '06 folder I created, and did a fresh install.
    I didn't have to do anything with the iPhoto Libraries, that I can recall.
    I always do an upgrade, never an archive and install. I've never had a problem with this back to 10.1 or 10.2.

    Can you please try the following?
    - first make sure that you have flash player up-to-date. You can get the latest version from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
      Now log into story wait for some time to see if this resolves your issue or not
    - If it doesn't then try opening private browsing/incognito mode of your browser and try logging into Story from there
      If you are able to login then you should try clearing cache and cookies of your browser

  • Lenovo x201 tablet laptop Integrated Webcam not working

I tried downloading the integrated camera driver but during installation it stops about 3/4s of the way and the installation cancels.

  • How come my iPad with iCloud doesn't sync with my iPhone 4 that has same apple id and both ios5?

    How come my iPad with iCloud doesn't sync with my iPhone 4 that has same apple id and both ios5?

    Not sure if you just have an issue with your setup or something else.
    I had an issue where my numbers and pages documents were not syncing on my ipad, but were on my iphone. 
    I turned icloud off an on, reset the apps, even deleted them and reinstalled them.  I also checked all of the other icloud setting. 
    Only thing that worked (and it might be just a fluke)  I emailed from my iphone a numbers document to my ipad.  I opened then closed the document and the app.  When I opened it back up it started importing my icloud documents.
    If it is a settings issue then you need to be sure you have icloud setup in your mail settings.  Has to be there and active.

  • Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    If you got them from iBooks, then no. As far as I know, iBooks are linked to the Apple ID that downloaded them. If you got them via Kindle or the such, the apps may have a sharing function.
    If it's another app, then whatever  the rules of that app says is what works.
    If you're looking for e-books on a budget, check out your local library. Many have e-books you can check out for a period of time, and they either work with an app or are PDF files with some sort of time limit encoding in them

  • I have purchased a from within an app. I submit my password for the app, and then my Apple ID.  I then get the following messages "Regrant failure _ please log in with the same user that has bought this app"  and that is followed  by "cant conn with IT _

    I have purchased an item from within the app PocketBible on my iPad.  However when I try to download it I am asked for my app User Name and Password and then my Apple ID and password.  I give both of these.  I then get a message which says Regrant failure - Please log in with the same user that has bought the app.  That is then followed by  Pocket Bible Alert - cannot connect to iTunes Store.
    Anybody got any ideas, both what the 1st alert means and how I get round the problem please.

    I had the same problem. My wife had the PocketBible on her Ipad 2 and she transferred ownership to me. I had to delete the app and reinstall it from the App store(logged in with my apple ID) and its working without a problem. I do not get those error messages when I attempt to Buy/Upgrade or Add/Remove books.

  • I have a online form created with my paid account that has just stopped working.

    I have a online form created with my paid account that has been working for months that just started displaying a message that starts "This form was easily created for FREE with FormsCentral. See how..." The inline frame that it shows up in has also changed to be very small. The form is set to open in FormsCentral and shows the message and inline frame size when I choose preview. What's up?

    Checked when I got back in to work today and everything is working as it should. All of our online forms were screwed up yesterday, but are working this morning. I know this won't help anyone in the future, but just wanted to follow-up.

    What do you mean "Leave them my laptop again"? do you mean you have had it worked on before? for the same problem or a different one?
    You need to take it in to Apple ASAP. No matter how long they have it, you want it fixed and fixed correctly.

  • Captivate 5 - issue with editing imported PowerPoints that have been resized

    I'm having an issue with editing PowerPoint files that have been imported into Captivate 5 when they have been resized within the Captivate project after the initial import.
    1. I import a PowerPoint presentation into 800x600 dimension.
    2. I resize the project to 900x600 by not locking the aspect ratio and selecting to position to the top right so there is a 100 pixel strip to the left of the slide that we use for navigation buttons and other info.
    3. If I need to make a change to a PowerPoint, I select Edit > Edit with Microsoft PowerPoint > Edit Slide (or Edit Presentation).
    4. The slide opens in PowerPoint and I make the changes and click Save.
    5. When the slide is imported back into Captivate, it is stretched and resized to not fit either 800x600 or 900x600, but something in between. This did not happen in Captivate 4 - the slide would retain the 800x600 dimension slid over to the right with no issues.
    Are there any settings that can be done to ensure the edited slides will import back into the project with the correctly sized dimensions for the current project?

    Hi there
    I agree that it would be nice to see a notification. You know, Captivate offers a special area for notifications that appear when you open it. I'm stymied as to why Adobe doesn't use this area for making such announcements.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Is Apple going to come out with an iPod touch that has built in Wi-fi ?

    Apple should realy come out with an iPod Touch that has built in Wi-Fi. They iPod Touch could be just like a phone! I think everyone would upgrade to it.

    Yeah , but you can only connect to Wi-Fi if you have a router , which in my case , I dont have one . I already have a phone , but it would be nice for it to have built in Wi-Fi so I could use the Internet or Facetime with people ANYWHERE , even if the place I was at DID NOT have a router / Wi-Fi connection . They iPad has built in Wi-Fi , so why not have the iPod Touch have built in Wi-Fi ?(:
