Keyboard Yoga 3 pro doesnt work

hi
friday i receive my yoga 3 pro. On Saturday i start to configure it. and start to install the windows updates. after many restarts the updates were finished. then i want to start to install my programs, but the keyboard didnt work. and the notebook was very slowly! so i restart, but same problem again. i search for a solution, i only find one thread were the new graphcis driver was the fault! but windows update and i didnt install a new driver! so i recovery the system, but same problem. i can use the touchscreen keyboard and and an usb keyboard without any problems! sometimes the touchpad also didnt work!
hardware fault?
thank you

Hello,
It's a guess, but I think it could be the Harmony software turning it off.
This software is supposed to turn off your keyboard when in tablet mode.
Can you please run it in notebook mode, make sure the Harmony software is on, rotate the screen all the way into tablet mode, switch it back to notebook mode and see if it's working. Also, please pay attention to the top right hand corner of the screen. Harmony should indicate it's changing profiles while you move the screen. If it's not- it might be the sensor that detects the position of the screen.
If that doesn't work there might be a factory fault in your unit. In that case use the warranty to have it fixed or replaced.
Feel free to ask me about general PC issues, Ideapads, and Thinkpads.

Keyboard and system boices doesnt work

I can play a music , make skype call but voices of keyboard and other system voices are disfunctional inven if they are turned on in settings. Can you help me?

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Yoga 2 Pro - Keyboard Not Working

My issue is that the keyboard of my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro disables itself intermittently in Laptop Mode. I purchased this laptop (i7 cpu, 256GB SSD, 8GB memory) from BB a week ago and get it replaced twice (3 different units) and all had the same issue. Case of the first one I purchased was also cracked on the rear side. I powered the laptop to test it before I return it. Then I realized this keyboard issue. I was using it in laptop mode and keyboard backlight was going off by itself. First I thought it was just the backlight but keys were not functioning as well. Touchpad and Touchscreen were still functional. Time to time keyboard came back to life by itself and sometimes I needed to restart couple of times to get it work.
Next day I went to another BB store to get it replaced (the one I burchased was the last unit in other store). So I also got the last unit in this other BB store and went to school. After my classes I realised this one had the same keyboard issue. I checked if I had latest BIOS, drivers and software and updated everything. But there was no solution. I called lenovo tech support and the guy on the phone told me that it seems like a hardware issue and suggested me to get it replaced again via BB. I didn't think that it was a hardware issue. It seemed to me like the sensors drivers or firmware were thinking that I put the yoga in tablet mode and was disableing keyboard even in laptop mode. I tried uninstalling yoga software , disabling services such as YMC and intel thermal and power management from bios etc. etc. These things seemed to lower the number of issues but still keyboard was disableing itself time to time.
I went BB again to get another one. But of course I had to find another store that have the exact same model (and of course they had only one unit). I went and get that one. Guess what? It is same. I tried everythin. Installed my own copy of Windows 8.1 Pro and didn't install any lenovo software etc. Didnt work. I recovered to factory OS still same. I called lenovo tech support again to find some help. Only thing they could recommend me was to send the laptop for repair but I can not simply live without computer (I am computer science PhD. student need it access to a computer all the time).
I like the laptop so much and honestly I couldn't find another brand model with very high resolution screen i7 processor at least 8gb memory and 256GB ssd etc at this priice range. So I want to be able to use it. But every other minute or hour the keyboard disables itself. With the latest unit I got moving the lid (pushing and pulling screen back and forth) seems to help sometimes. Also tilting the laptop some times works.
Is there anyone else having this kind of issues? And more importantly is there anyone who managed to solve it?
I do not want to talk to tech support again. If possible I want to get in touch with some people from Lenovo software and drivers team so that I can help them diagnose the issue and test beta software firmware they might have.
PS: Why no bios/driver update for last couple of months?

As stupid as it sounds, try folding the laptop fully into tablet mode, then fold it back to regular mode. This has been working for one of my clients.
NOT a driver issue - definitely a physical issue. Hopefully the folding back/forth continues to work.
(and since I'm a support resource, this kind of stuff makes me look bad when I recommend it to a client: "Yes, it is possibly the coolest laptop available on the market, but you just have to deal with a few issues like keyboard randomly stopping working and the wireless driver load intermittently not working after waking the laptop up. Other than those two minor issues, it's a great laptop!!"

Yoga 2 Pro - Keyboard lock not working in stand mode

Where can I find the Yoga Utilities suite (Yoga Transitions, Chef, etc.). I just isntalled fresh 8.1 Enterprise and turns out the D:\ partition didn't have the Yoga Utilities available, same on the support site (checked Yoga 13 as well). Pretty dumb, but I can't use the stand since the keyboard doesn't lock

Hi i have this problem did you find a solution other than lenovo transition because i downloaded that and it still doesnt work....
can you please help me if you have any ideas.
my keyboard does not lock or disable in stand mode and sometimes it stops working in laptop mode...
any help would be greaatly appreciated

If you have records that show that you've taken your MacBook Pro in for a year to fix the machine, I would escalate the problem to Apple Customer Relations - unfortunately I don't have a number for Spain.
It would only seem logical to me that if you've been trying to have the machine repaired during the time that the 'recall' was in effect that you should be eligible for a new logic board. But only customer relations will be able to make that call.
Good luck - take the issue as high up the food chain as you can and see what happens.

Lenova Yoga 2 Pro Keyboard not working

I just bought a Lenovo Yoga 2 pro and installed windows 8.1 by itsef. During Windows 8.1 initial setup I was able to use keyboard to type in PC Name, but after that the keyboard and touch pad was not working/no any response any more. After Windows 8.1 lunched the keyboard also no any response. I have to use touch screen soft keyboard. But when laptop in BIOS mode (turn power off and press a small round button next to power button) the keyboard was working fine. So I think that the keyboard hardware is ok, but some thing iwas wrong with Windows 8.1 software issue. I also un-selected all on Easy of Access->Keyboard section in Windows 8.1. Did anyone has same experience and know how to resolve this problem? Thanks a lot!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sounds like the laptop is thinking you are in tablet mode and the keyboard/touchpad are being disabled. Try moving the screen into tablet mode and back. See if that fixes it. You can also try to run an update on the Lenovo Transition software (it is currently at version 2.0.13.8221). This is done from the About tab of the software (when you run it from the start/search box).

Yoga 2 Pro - Veriface doesnt work with Domain Account

I have a Yoga 2 Pro and I can get Veirface to work fine with a local account but it will not work with a Domain Account. I can get it to where it prompts me for the Domain Account Password (as it should the 1st time) but when you enetr the proper password, it tells you ints invalid etc. I have tried changing the Domain Password but it acts like it just cant locate the account etc. Does anyone know if this is a known issue or if there is a resolution to this?
I am using Veriface 5.0.13.5261 on a Windows 8.1 Pro Operating System

Hi there, i had the same problem.
I have two accounts
1. valentia\mubi (which is domain account)
2. Mubi (which is local laptop account)
When i use register my account with veriface, it work fine with Mubi
When i use to register my account with valentia\mubi it say wrong password..
I even deleted local i.e. Mubi account but still no luck!
This is great feature, but pretty much useless if not working with domain. I have to use domain account,

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro: WiFi doesnt work after driver upgrade

After experiencing Wireless issues I tried to upgrade my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro 13" with Windows 8.1 64Bit to the latest drivers from the lenovo support site.
Ever since I cannot connect to the WLAN anymore. What puzzles me is that the driver status in the device manager shows a different driver version than what I have installed (uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it doesn't change anything here).
What puzzles me is the Lenovo Website shows driver version 16.6.0.8 (released 25.Jan.2014, see link below), whereas my system display version is 16.6.2.1 (dated 31.10.2013). Hence I thought I have another version from somewhere else on my and removed all driver versions I could find.
Checking driver details I get the follow file versions:
   C:\windows\system32\drivers\NETwbw02.sys    version 16.6.2.1 Intel, dated 2011
   C:\windows\system32\drivers\Netwfw02.dat       no version or publisher
   C:\windows\system32\drivers\vwifibus.sys          version 6.3.9600.16384 Microsoft
Still, whenever I deinstall the driver, install the files from lenovo and click "Detect new device" my system pulls the drivers as listed above and is incapable of connecting to any WiFi.
Windows 8.1. shows no connections available and doesn't connect anymore.
How can I get my WLAN back?
regards

Go to Solution.

hi Florian,
If Windows Update is configured to automatically fetch updates from Microsoft then the machine most likely have installed the Intel driver update for Intel(R) Wireless N-7260 as discussed in this article (which explains the different driver versions).
Things that you can try:
1. If the machine comes with the Intel(R) Wireless N-7260, navigate to:
- Device Manager
- Network Adapters
- Intel(R) Wireless N-7260 (right click > update driver software)
- Browse my computer for driver software
- Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer (you will then see a list of drivers, check if you have the version 16.6.0.8 from Lenovo and choose it and observe.
2. Restart the machine and boot into the BIOS (by pressing F2 on the Lenovo screen). Once you're in, navigate to the Configuration Tab and ensure Wireless is set to Enabled (if applicable).
- Link to picture
3. Perform a System Restore and choose a date before the issue began. (this will restore the unit to an earlier point in time where wireless connection is working fine)
4. Perform a Refresh / Reset or press the OneKey Recovery button (this will restore the unit to factory settings - ensure that you backup important files first).
Regards

Problems with new Yoga 2 Pro (battery, fan noise, yellow, screen orientation, on-screen keyboard)

I purchased the Yoga Pro 2 on Thursday October 17. I love the computer for so many reasons, (especially since it replaces my 4 year old Compaq that was 6.5lbs!) however, I am also having a few issues with it.
It is the i7/8GB/256GB model from BestBuy. I am experiencing the same yellow issue as is mentioned by many on here. I didn't realize it, though, until reading these forums and then comparing to my old computer and my ipad and iPhone. A little disappointed, though it looks like Lenovo may be working on a solution.
But the real reason I originally came to look at this forum is because of 2 things: my fan and battery.
The fan (on the right side of the keyboard) is always on! I didn't expect this, and am wondering if mine is a lemon or if others are noticing the same thing. It's pretty noticeable, especially in a quiet room. I was showing off my new computer to a friend and the very first thing she said was that it was loud! She was using a MacBook pro, which wasn't making any noise at all.
The second thing is the battery... I am attaching 4 photos all taken within a few minutes of each other. If you cant see them, they are all of the battery meter on my screen. I am listing the time of day (to show how much time passed), percent remaining, and time remaining:
10:04 (88%) 306 hr 15 min
10:05 (88%) 8 hr 48 min
10:09 (86%) 4 hr 54 min
10:29 (81%) 5 hr 12 min
I feel like my computer just cant make up its mind!!
Another issue I had... I turned on my computer to show it to a friend (same friend who said it was noisy) and the screen image wouldn't flip when in any of the modes. This means I showed her the stand mode with an upside down image. Even in tablet mode I couldn't get it to flip. I turned the computer off and then on again, and luckily it decided to work, but it was frustrating, and I hope it's not something that becomes an issue.
Also, when I have the computer in tablet mode, the keyboard automatically pops up when I click somewhere to type... but this doesn't happen in stand mode or tent mode. Is this normal? I would have thought that the keyboard would appear in any of those modes, since the real keyboard is not accessible in any of them. And of course now that I am testing it out while writing this, none of the modes (including tablet) is having the keyboard come on screen. Of course, I know I can always choose the icon on the task bar to bring up the keyboard, but it would be nice if the computer did it automatically since it knows there is no other keyboard accessible in those modes. Is this an issue anybody else has had?
I really do enjoy using this computer, but some of these issues really need to get worked out if I am going to keep it. I'd love to hear if anyone is experiencing anything similar, and if there are any good fixes!

I just got a Lemontine Yoga 2 Pro i5/8GB/256GB from lenovo.com and the silver one from BestBuy in the same configuraiton. The silver one has no issues except for the crazy number of hours remaining on the battery which is fine, doesn't bother me. The fan noise is very quiet, and you can only hear it if you put your ear up to the vents in a quiet room.
Now the Clementine one...It was heating up pretty good. I put my ear to it on many occasions and can hear nothing at all, the fan is either missing LOL or doesn't work. I had an issue where I left the thing on for 4 hours, but sleep is configured after 5 hours. When I tried to use it, it showed me the screen brielfy, then blank. Tried hard reset, called Support, nothing. Support says its dead. Ok, an hour later, it turned on. I'm guessing it was too hot and was in some mode to protect itself, like a smartphone that is left out in the sun for some time, it won't power on till its cooled down.
I'm still in process of trying to get a hold of Lenovo to swap it, but since they no longer sell this configuration, I doubt they'll be able to get me a new one.
The silver one from BestBuy us solid though, love it, best in class in my opinion...actually got it from Future Shop sorry...from Canada, but they're essentially the same store.

Yoga 2 Pro stuck volume, missing cursor, onscreen keyboard unusable

I'm having several issues with a Yoga 2 Pro laptop running Windows 8.1 that's about a year old.
1) Volume is stuck at 0. I can raise the volume, but it automatically lowers back down to zero, as if the volume-down key is stuck. The volume indicator is always onscreen.
2) Cursor is missing, however I can still right click/left click. Also, the cursor will reappear when I uninstall the Synaptic touchpad drivers.
3) The onscreen touch keyboard is unusable. I can click on the icon and it pops up, but it immediatly goes back down.
4) Side screen charms won't stay on screen (example: pressing the F10 key or project screen the side menu pops in but immediately pops out, similar to the keyboard). Also if I swipe in from the right and try to use anything (devices, settings, etc.) it does not respond
5) Pressing the start key doesn't bring it to the start screen, but holding it down for a few seconds does.
The above problems still exist in safe mode.I'm thinking it's a hardware issue or a bad connection of some kind. I've tried:
1) Removing/reinstalling various drivers (touchpad, audio, graphics)
2) Disabling services (YMC comes up often when looking at trackpad problems, but this hasn't worked for me)
3) Uninstalled/reinstalled programs (Energy Management, Transitions, etc.)
4) Did a complete factory reset at one point, had no effect.
I've had the problem a couple times before, and one thing that DID work was to hold down the power button for ten seconds while the computer was off, then let it reboot. Unfortunately that solution is no longer working. The threads I've linked below have been the closest I've found to a problem like this, but neither of their solutions worked for me.

Any help would be much appreciated! Definitely affecting my usability of this otherwise wonderful machine.

Update in case anyone else comes across a similar problem: I ended up sending my laptop into warranty, and it came back a week later working completely. No idea what the problem, cause, or fix was, although they didn't replace any major parts (battery, cable, cpu, fan, hard drive, keyboard, touch pad, display, memory, motherboard...going off the list they sent back, none of those were replaced), so I'm not sure what to think. Not even a factory reset. I'd love to know what the issue was, in case it comes up again but am happy that my laptop is once again functioning in either case!

Yoga 2 Pro keyboard light

Hi,
I have a Yoga 2 Pro for just a few days.
I noticed that the keyboard light is not workiing properly.
Sometimes it lights up, sometimes it does not.
Sometimes I can turn it on and off (fn + left space), sometimes I cannot.
Once it came on by itself, but when I pressed a key - a letter key - it turned off and I could not light it up again.
I noticed that when it does not work, if I change mode (from laptop to tent or tablet and back to laptop) most of the times I am able to take it on.
I am guessing this is a hardware problem.
Am I right?
Is there anything I can do to make sure it is a h/w failure before getting it to a service center?
Thanks
Costa

Simultaneously?
I'll give it a try...thx

A lot of bugs works on yoga 2 pro with linux 3.13.5

Hey guys, I’m trying get archlinux works on yoga 2 pro but I get lots of trouble and it seems that nobody posts this before.
1. Keymap problem, F1~F12 doesnt work, (well, F9 just turn off the screen without Fn), it seems that I need set keymap manually. But I don't know how.
2. The '\a' problem,God knows which key I hitted yesterday, now the system alarms everytime I over hit 'Up key' or others. Anyone knows how to turn off the alarm?
I guess this laptop is really attractive and there must be alot linuxer works with it right now.
any help?
Thank you very much!

Hey guys I'm back, sorry for that I was not patient enough to find my own anwser. My sound problem doesnt bother me until I found that Firefox cant play sounds either.
Here is my /etc/asound.conf
pcm.!default {
type hw
card PCH
ctl.!default {
type hw
card PCH
if you want to know, I found that, as mentioned before, some application works (vlc) and others not(aplay, still gave me the channel count non available, I dont know what that means).
aplay -l outputs
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC283 Analog [ALC283 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Actually, the reason that PCH card switched to 0 is I add snd-hda-intel.index=1,0 in kernel parameters according to (the Gentoo Wiki told me that firefox use card 0 as output no matter if it's default card or not)http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ALSA#HTML5_ … ox_browser. And it didnt solve the problem.
I dont know if it's the same reason for no sound problem of firefox and aplay, but it seems that all other fellow works fine with yoga 2.
I couldnt believe you guys never met the same problem, we use the same laptop after all, so, thanks alot for any help or hint.

Yoga 2 Pro tent mode and auto-rotate not working

I have had a Yoga 2 Pro since June. Recently the Tent mode and auto-rotate features do not work.
When I put the Yoga 2 Pro into Tent mode the keyboard and touch pad are still active underneth. However, they shutoff when in tablet mode. Lenovo Transition starts automatically and is running.
Auto-rotate does not work at all now. The screen is un-locked.

Dear NX3
Welcome to Lenovo forums
Please try to uninstal the Lenovo transition program and download the version in the below link and instal it
