Lenovo EZ Media and Backup Center MUY LENTO

Hola buen dia a todos. Tengo un Lenovo® EZ Media and Backup Center 2T el cual solo lo uso como BackUp de la empresa conectado en Red con direccion IP estatica como cualquier otro equipo de la red conectado directamente a un Switch 3Com. Los primeros dias volaba pero luego, ya casi un año, esta imposible de lento. Acceder a buscar algun dato es una tarea que demanada muuucha pasiencia. Cambie las configuraciones de red dejandola dinamicas a ver si ese era el problema, restaure toda la configuracion desde el boton de Reset y asi y todo nada, es lentisimo, si bien las copias de datos se realizan bien con COBIAN cada vez que necesito acceder es imposible. Esto es asi? Hay algo que pueda modificar? aparte de decirme el Storage Manager que el dispositivo no esta disponible....esta en la misma red que el resto de las PCs con sus DNS Wins Gateway todo igual y me dice que forma parte de otra "subRed" jajaja
Alguna sugerencia?? Gracias

Hello deboerpp
You might have found a solution already, but figured i'd mention this.
Your xbox should be finding the ez media via the ez media's built-in UPnP media server. After adding data to a unit while media server is turned on it is possible that the media server feature is crashing.
I recommend turning off media server from the web interface of the ez media, rebooting the unit, then turning media server backon and running a media scan.
Give the unit about 10-15 minutes then try refreshing any connected media player/xbox

Turning Media Server on makes Lenovo EZ Media and Backup Center un-usable

I have a Lenovo EZ MEdia and BAckup Center. It was sent to me (under warranty) to replace an Iomega model which failed.
If I turn on Media Server the device becomes un-usable. Logging onto the device and then selecting any operation takes 5 to 10 Minutes for each interaction. All windows network drives configured to the device become inaccessible.
When I turn it off then I can access all my windows networked drives again and I can log on and interact with the device without problem. Obviously anything which needs the media server function can no longer see the device.
I have the latest firmware 4.1.106.31982
This problem really needs fixing. I will be looking for another device if this carries on

Hello wafitz
I seems you are experiencing a variation of this issue "Media scan causes the device interface to become unavailable".
I have also seen similar situations that happened when data is added to the unit when media server is enabled.
This could cause media server to potentially lock and cause performance issues to the rest of the unit.

EZ Media and Backup - all data disappeared

I have an Iomega EZ Media and Backup 2TB system I've been using for about a year with no problems.
Yesterday had a very strange issue, was having trouble connecting so rebooted with button on the back (pressed for under 5 seconds).
Drive shut down, hit the button again to turn back on, connected from laptop, all my files, about 1.8TB are gone!
User accounts, settings, directories are all still there, but all files are gone and picture at the top shows the drive as being empty.
Is there any way for me to recover this?
I believe everything was fine after upgrading to firmware 4.0.8.23976, but I'm not 100% that didn't cause the issue.

Hi mattgaines,
Pressing and holding the power button is not recommended because it may result in data loss. I'm not sure if this is the cause since you said it was for under 5 seconds, but it is possible. It could also be the firmware on the device. Some customers have been able to get their data back by adding the shares back by the same name, but since the directories are still there that might not work.
Is this device still covered by the warranty? I think it would be best if you contacted technical support to see if they can troubleshoot the device to get the data back. However, data recovery is not covered under the warranty. If the data cannot be retrieved, you will have to use a data recovery service to try to get the data back.

2TB Iomega EZ Media and Backup NAS connection failure.

Hi,
Can someone please explain to me why my 2TB Iomega EZ Media and Backup with the newest firmware installed often suddenly cannot be approached anymore whatever I try. My desktop (W8.0) says “Cannot find networkpath “. Code: 0x80070035. IE. says “Cannot find server”. White and blue leds are on.
And after a few hours or sometimes days it reconnects again all by itself. What can I do, suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Wil

Hi Andrew, Thank you for your response.
Does anybody else have access to the device that might be trying to log in? Have you enabled security on the device? If not, I would recommend enabling security and make sure that your device is secure by reading the following support article: Security Best Practices Guidelines
Nobody else has acces to the device. Security is enabled.
You might want to set up a static IP address as well: Configuring a static IP address
A static Ip address has been set up after installation, otherwise it won`t function.
If the problem persists, you can try to reset the network and user settings with the reset button on the back of the device. Press and hold the reset button for four seconds. Using the device reset button
This I will try.
OR
Reset the entire device using the Factory Reset from the web interface. This will erase all of your data, however.
This is only a last resort as the device is full with data.
You can also contact technical support to troubleshoot the issue further since you are still covered by the warranty.
This I will do if the problem persists.
Thanks a lot for your advice.
Wil

2TB Iomega EZ Media and Backup NAS

Hi, I have a hard disk failure on the unit and would like to replace it. What utilities do I need to prepare a replacement drive and where can I obtain them? My unit is out of warranty and SeaTools shows the drive has failed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello marticus
Unofficially this process from NAS-Central.org should allow you to create a usb firmware field imager for the EZ media.
This thread should also help with what you are looking to do. Keep in mind that the firmware was intended for the disk that would have shipped with the unit, I can't say for certain if the unit will run properly if the firmware is able to install on the hard disk using the suggested method.
Hope it all works out for you!

Can I store my photos, music and films on external harddrive and backup everything to time capsule?

Hi
I have just bought my very first mac this week. I have the iphone 4 already but have been used to using windows my whole life.
I have purchased:
21.5inch iMac 2011
2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i5
4GB RAM
500GB Harddrive
Latest version of Lion OS
Its only been a couple of days and already I dont know how I ever lived without it.
The predicament Im in is this: I want to use apple Tv to stream my music, photos and films to my TV in the living room. But I would also like to store all of this on an external harddrive, rather than filling up my internals with it then not having enough room for anything else.
Can I store my films, music, photo's etc on an external harddrive and still stream to apple tv? Does it need to be a specific external harddrive? And whats the best way to back everything up? Would a 2TB Time Capsule backup my mac and everything on my external harddrive?
Sorry for all the questions, Im very new to this and dont know much about harddrives.
Thanks in advance..
Gem

Yes. However, it gets more complicated. Time Machine is better for archival backup, and typically requires twice the space for the data as the original. Streaming from external drives while possible can get laggy on video unless you use Firewire or Thunderbolt. If you have any old 802.11b or 802.11g devices, you'll want to keep them on a separate network. A better investment is a couple external hard drives for backup and one for any excess stuff that won't fit on your main 500 GB drive, and to use cloning software instead. When you need archival backup, burn to CD or DVD that is prepackaged in jewelcases. See my FAQ* on good media and backup http://www.macmaps.com/cdrfailure.html
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
When backing up make sure nothing else is happening on the machine from your end.

Lenovo EZ Media & Backup Center and SRT subtitle

When playing movies using the built in DLNA feature, will it be compatible with srt (or any other kind) subtitle?
In other words, if I store a movie with any kind of subtitle inside Lenovo EZ Media & Backup Center, and use a smart tv to play this movie by DLNA, will the subtitles be played?

Hello all,
When adding new .srt files to the Lifeline device running twonky, please be sure that the file name matches the video's file name except for the extension.
If the subtitles are not detected, try running a Twonky database repair from the lifeline web interface
(All Features> Media Server > Settings > "Repair Database") This is mentioned in past official twonky release notes for .srt files.

Edit files remotely Iomega EZ Media & Backup Center

Hi,
I'm deciding which NAS to buy. I'm interested in Iomega EZ Media & Backup Center.
I want to know if it is possible to edit any files remotely (word, excel, autocad, corel, etc.) without having to previously download it to the pc I'm remotely accessing with.
I don't want to download the file, edit it, and then re-upload the edited file. Is too uncomfortable.
I have to use an app to do this or I can edit it directly from Windows Explorer or a web browser like Firefox?
Thinkin that maybe I'll access from a public pc and want to have the possibility to edit it directly.
I'll appreciate any comments. Thanks

Hello aleb21
You would need to install LSM on every remote pc/workstation to be able to mount/map the shares for file editing.
You can install LenovoEMC Link on your iOS and Android mobile devices. The application is intended to allow you to open documents, however since the application functions the same as the web user interface it would be more for viewing documents not editing. To edit files/documents you would need to download the file, edit on the mobile device, then upload the updated file to the NAS.
The video is correct, but does not go over the portion about connecting the remote computer using the personal cloud section of LSM. Basically you would do the following:
-Launch LSM
-Navigate to the Personal Cloud tab, click on "settings" on that tab.
-Enter the cloud name you created on the device's web ui. It can take a few minutes to find the cloud in some situations.
-Enter your NAS credentials created on the NAS or that are included in the invite email sent from the NAS.
-Once connected LSM's default is to auto-map/mount the shares that your user as access for to the remote computer. You can confirm this option by right clicking on the LSM system tray icon and make sure the "map drive letters" option is checked. You can also access the shares via the share tab in LSM, this will open an explorer/find window for you to navigate through the shares.
WebDAV is seperate from the web user interface (home page and content explorer). It would look similar to a basic FTP web interface when accessing via a browser. Just like the FTP protocol you could theoretically map the connection to explorer/finder remotely as a web/internet location with your external ip address. It should allow for remote editing.
For VPN, when accessing your cloud using LSM on a remote computer it would function like a VPN between your NAS and the remote computer. If you want to use a 3rd party VPN and not use personal cloud it should be possible, but may require your router or computer on the network to actually manage the VPN software.
For the camera question, with your setup the nas would not be a part of it unless you have the ip camera's setup to save data to the NAS. If that is the case you can setup the destination share the camera's are storing to for media sharing. This would allow the Media Server feature to stream the saved videos locally and/or remotely. Keep in mind that the media server feature does not do transcoding so the media receiver would need to support the file format the ip camera's store.
All lifeline os devices have a copy jobs backup option, however it does require knowledge of directory sharing from the source computer to work, see Host data backup using Copy Jobs
I personally recommend looking into the ix2-dl option as it:
-is under $100 USD
-can support up to 2x 6TB hard disks w/ RAID 1, 0, and NONE (JBOD)
-has support for SecureMind surveillance
-has a more powerful SoC processor
Hope this all helps with your decision.

IOMEGA EZ MEDIA BACKUP CENTER

I have an EZ Media & Backup Center which was bought in the US and in which the Hard Drive stopped working, I have recovered the data from the burnt hard drive. Although the NAS is still within the warranty period but possibaly warranty would be voided as I opened up the drive.My question is -how do I install a new HDD with the Operating System,I'm in India now.Will Lenovo Support in India be of help.Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hello masterg7
At this point you may need to consider contacting a data recovery provider. If your device is in warranty, please contact LenovoEMC support for further assistance on restoring the unit to a factory software state.

I have installed the latest version of iOS in my ipad but forgot to backup the content, what should i do!!! I don't want my media and other data erased, how can i find back all the data in my ipad? I haven't restore ipad yet, so any others way can be use? Now my ipad is in recovery mode.

Once you are in Recovery Mode, it's too late to do any backup. I am afraid you are going to lose your data.

Set up a media server and backup

I hope I picked the best community for maximum exposure to this set of questions:
I want to build a video distribution system. I have teh ability to send audio throughout the house and HD video via 2 CAT 6 in every room. From my research and being an Apple fan this is what I am thinking about doing. I am considering not using the CAT 6 for video and using wired or wireless connections at one of several locations to get video and other media.
Here is what I have: Airport Express (extender mode), Aiport Extreme, Netgear Gigabit switch feeding the wired locations. I have some older WD MyBooks connected via the network and a USB 500GB drive connected to the Airport Extreme for Time Machine backups - of just my MBP, not my wife's MBP.
1. Should I buy a Mac Mini to act as the media server for the house? I suspect I could have 4-5 locations at once demanding media via Apple TV or xBox 360 (via connect 360). I would like to not buy more than 1 Mac mini. I have considered stuff by Request Media and they are really expensive compared to the cost of one or even two mac minis.
2. I want to have all of the media stored on a RAID 1 network attached drive (or Firewire, Thunderbolt, USB 3.0 whatever). I also want to be able to backup the computers in the house to this storage too. Possible? Lacie seems to have a good product, but, pricey.
3. I suppose I could put a large hard drive in the Mac Mini and store all the media there and use the RAID 1 system to back up all computers somehow. It seems Time Machine freaks out when more than one computer backs up to the same drive.   Is there a better way than Time Machine?
In essence I want to put together a system that supports media distribution via multiple streams via wired or wireless network connections to 3-4 locations simultaneously, backup everything, and store everything video and audio and I am looking for recommendations.
Thanks many!

As previously stated, iTunes libraries cannot be accessed
simultaneously by to different computers. This would pretty
much rule out having an Apple TV and other Mac(s) using
the same iTunes library at the same time. Unfortunately,
Apple TV needs iTunes for any local network streaming.
However, ther are other ATV type devices out there that can
access files directly on any network storage.
There are also other media apps (PLEX, XBMC,etc.) that
can simply be set up to link to network storage systems.
Personally, I am using XBMC on my Macs and all are
linked to media files that are located on HDD attached to
my Airport Extreme Base Station.
2. I want to have all of the media stored on a RAID 1 network attached drive (or Firewire, Thunderbolt, USB 3.0 whatever). I also want to be able to backup the computers in the house to this storage too. Possible? Lacie seems to have a good product, but, pricey.
There are various options here. Something to consider, is
LaCie's Thunderbolt to SATA adapter:
http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?id=10574.
You could then get one of OWC's RAID enclosures w/ SATA
interface and roll your own storage. Advantages of this approach
1. The RAIDs will be hardware RAID.
2. You could have two independed RAID systems attached
      for various reasons or puposes.
3. Higher speed disk interface vs. USB3.
4. You can also install highest speed HDD's available if
      desired.
5. If a a single disk drive goes belly-up, replacement is fast
      and easy.
6. Also, upgrading to larger drives is a matter of just swapping
     the HDD itself.
3. I suppose I could put a large hard drive in the Mac Mini and store all the media there and use the RAID 1 system to back up all computers somehow. It seems Time Machine freaks out when more than one computer backs up to the same drive.   Is there a better way than Time Machine?
With this sort of system, I would avoid putting data inside
and libraries inside the Mini. Should the HDD fail, your whole system
and data will be down. I would suggest get a Mini with a single
SSD drive with OSX and install Server on it. Being solid state,
it will in the long run be more reliable than a mechanical HDD.
Then put all data and libraries on external storage. If any of
the data/library drives fail, repair/replacement will be quick
and simple.
For your purpose, you don't need to by the "Server" model.
Just get either the base or next one up and just install the
server app on it.

Compilation of Lenovo X120e issues and solutions

Just thought a compilation of issues may be beneficial for folks who own an X120e.
Screen adjusts brightness automatically without user input depending on content on screen:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/X100e-screen-brightness-increasing-by-itself/td...
This is caused by Vari-Bright being enabled in the Catalyst Control Center. With this option enabled, the screen will automatically adjust its brightness depending on what is shown on the screen. The display brightness is increased when the screen is predominantly white while the display brightness is decreased when the screen is predominantly dark. An easiest way to see this effect happening is to have two tabs opened in a web browser window. Set one tab to display a website that is mainly filled with white pixels (such as this Lenovo Forum) and another tab to display a website that is mainly filled with dark pixels (such as http://www.krijtenberg.nl/ ). Switch between the two, pausing a few seconds in each tab.
Solution:
Open the Catalyst Control Center and select the PowerPlay option in the Power section. Uncheck the Vari-Bright option (or adjust the slider) and click Apply. Verify that the automatic adjustment is no longer occuring by doing the two tab experiment described above.
Function keys for brightness control not working after waking from sleep / hibernation in some instances:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x120e-Funtion-keys-for-brightness-not-working/t...
For my X120e, whenever I have it sleeping or hibernating and change the power source (such as initiating sleep when on power and then waking it up while on battery, or vice versa), the function keys for brightness controls do not work.
Solution:
Restarting the machine will bring back functionality of the brightness control keys...
A way to prevent this from happening in the first place is to wake the X120e in the same power state that the X120e was put to sleep in (wake up from power adapter if slept while connected to power adapter, or wake up from battery if slept while on battery).
All we can do now is wait for Lenovo to come up with a fix on their side of things.
AMD SATA Controller and TRIM for SSD:
The AMD SATA Controller provided by Lenovo does not support passing of TRIM command according to http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/450343-post35.html for SSDs. The Lenovo provided AMD SATA Controller is 1.2.1.197, before the official TRIM support in 1.2.1.263. If you're using a HDD, this is of no concern.
Solution:
In order to have support for passing of TRIM command, one has to update the AMD SATA Controller to any version above 1.2.1.263 ( http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/integrated_win7-64.aspx#3 for Windows 7 64-bit, for example) or uninstall the AMD SATA Controller to revert back to Microsoft's Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller.
Disclaimer: Since the AMD SATA Controller driver linked is not from Lenovo themselves, I'm sure they won't provide any support if something is to occur so try at your own risk.
As HP79 mentions below, at least according to the update notes, TRIM implementation is implemented for Hudson chipsets as of 1.2.001.263.
Audio Stutter / Slurring occuring during playback of video/audio:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x120e-Stuttering-Audio/td-p/389023
This issue can be reproduced (at least on my X120e) by waking the X120e after putting it to sleep. The symptom is the audio repeating a sound over a span of a second or two during playback and is quite noticable.
Solution:
uEFI Bios version 1.11 seems to deal with the audio stuttering issue. So far, results lead to positive outcomes.
Old Solution:
PWMTR64V.DLL that is loaded at Startup seems to be causing this issue. Disabling it from launching when starting up seems to cure the Audio Stutter (even after waking up from sleep which was seen to be a pretty reliable way to get the issue to repro). Start Menu > Launch MSCONFIG from the Search Bar > Select Startup Tab from the System Configuration window > Uncheck Thinkpad Power Manager > Restart.
This does not seem to turn off the power manager application itself so settings in Power Manager can be saved and it seems to still be in effect. However, opening up Power Manager from the notification / taskbar can cause audio stuttering and mouse movement slowdown while it is launching and/or when applying settings. This is only temporary and is gone when Power Manager is closed. (Thanks kns7977 for the find)
Pending to see if those who uninstalled Power Manager are able to turn off the offending startup .dll.
Mouse seems to stutter or stay in place for a moment when moving:
This seems to be caused by the same issue causing the Audio Stutter / Slurring. At least at this time, the cause of the issue and solution seems to be the same.
Emulating Middle Mouse Button with Trackpoint:
One can set up the middle button between the left and right click button for the TrackPoint to act like pressing a middle mouse button on a standard mouse by changing the scrolling type to Smooth instead of the default Standard.
Control Panel > Hardware & Sound > Mouse > UltraNav Tab > Setting for TrackPoint > Setting for Choose Scrolling or Magnifying Glass Function > Smooth.
Trackpad's two finger gesture being hit or miss:
The trackpad's two finger scrolling is very hit and miss.
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/X120e-Touchpad-issues/td-p/393751
Solution: Turning off Gesture Filtering may alleviate the problem. As mentioned in http://forum.notebookreview.com/lenovo-ibm/561751-x120e-owners-thread-24.html#post7323293, it seems that the Gesture Filtering is counteracting any sort of two finger input.
Get to Mouse Properties by Fn + F8, select Manage Settings. At Mouse Properties, select the UltraNav tab > Settings for TouchPad. Expand the Smart Check Settings, highlight Gesture Filtering, and uncheck the Enable Gesture Filtering box and Apply.
Screen flickers lines:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x120e-Flickering/td-p/389523
Had this issue occur on me once, but never seen it happen again. Unsure what caused or cured it.
Solution:
If the flickering is occuring, a restart is all that is needed to alleviate the problem. Haven't tested if hibernation fixes it, but neither sleep nor turning off the screen with the Power Manager dealt with the flickering.
3-Cell Battery mentioned as a 40Wh in the Order Page of Lenovo X120e when it is actually rated as 32Wh according to Power Manager:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/X120e-3-cell-40Wh-battery-reported-as-32Wh-by-P...
Yeah...
Solution:
Accept that it's a 32Wh you will get when selecting 3-Cell or go for the 6-Cell if you want more than 32Wh.
2x2 ABGN Driver from Lenovo triggering Error Code 10:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/X120e-ABGN-Driver-issue-in-Windows-7-Pro-x64/td...
The Wireless driver from Lenovo's site seems to not work with the 2x2 ABGN wireless when installed on a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64.
Solution:
Not really quite a solution, but one can bypass this by either installing the 32-bit Windows 7 and installing the 32-bit driver, or using the factory recovery disc to install 64 bit windows 7 to have it install drivers that work for x64 windows 7.
X120e bluescreens after installing LAN Realtek 7.26.902.2010 drivers from Lenovo's Driver download site.
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x120e-bluescreen-when-installing-lan-drivers/td...
The drivers doesn't seem to work and it causes a bluescreen on fresh installed Windows 7 x64.
Solution:
As Clicq suggests, Realtek's own drivers from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTy... seems to deal with the issue.
Screen quality on the X120e:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x120e-poor-LCD-quality-viewing-angles/td-p/3945...
The quality of the screen on an X120e is below expectations.
This is common with low-quality TN panels not helped by glossy displays. My personal X120e screen likes to bleed certain colors of red.
Solution (not really):
One can use the Windows 7 built-in color calibration tool to adjust the colors to make it more tolerable. Adjusting your own viewing angle in relation to the screen might deal with some color issues (hard to figure out what's the correct viewing angle because of TN panel's small range of optimal viewing angles). Also, changing the refresh rate to 60Hz may deal with some headaches due to the screen (as it did for me).
HDMI Overscan to HDTV issue:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/HDMI-overscan-to-HDTV-issue-on-x120e/m-p/395335
There is a black border when outputting to HDTV through HDMI.
Solution:
AMD's CCC by default sets a specific value for overscan / underscan. One can http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/Output-to-TV-via-HDMI-port-black-border-on-the-... while the device is connected via HDMI (the option is hidden if the HDMI port is not used) and adjust the slider to an acceptable value.
Skype asserts after 10-20 seconds of video chat:
http://forum.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x120e-Skype-quits-after-10-20-seconds-of-video/...
When doing a video chat, the video feed will freeze and then skype will crash to desktop.
Solution:
Version 5.3 of Skype seems to be the culprit. Until Skype itself is fixed, one can use Skype 5.2.60.113 from http://www.filehippo.com/download_skype/changelog/9465/ to bypass this issue. Just reject any offer to update to 5.3 after installing 5.2, for now.
If there is anything I missed, please respond and I'll update this post with new information. These are the ones that I have encountered so far with my Lenovo X120e. Don't get me wrong, I like my X120e... it's just been a "learning" experience lol

About the AHCI driver, if you download and open the install file, it'll extract files to where you instructed it to. Look in AMD SB7xx/W764A directory, and there are the AHCI files along with a text file. In that text it shows
