If it detects 'Silverlight' as it does here you are good to go. I also don't see Silverlight in the addons list. But it's working here. Don't worry.

  • New Z510 - IE 11 and Silverligh​t issues

    Okay, so I'm not sure this is the right place, let me know if this is not.  
    I have a new (less than 2 months) old Z510 - Windows 8.1, IE  11.  When I first got the machine, I had no problems streaming Amazon Prime videos.  However, about a week ago, I was unable to stream in IE.  I can in chrome with no problems.
    I followed the help on Amazon, and tried to install Silverlight, which now shows up as a program on the computer, but not in the 'add-on' window in IE 11 (even when looking at all add-ons).  I have reset IE11, uninstalled and reinstalled Silverlight (same behavior, can see it as a program, but not as an add-on).  What am I doing wrong?  I have the standard install from Lenovo, am on McAfee (in case that matters), how do I make IE 11 realize that Silverlight is there?
    Thanks!
    Solved!

  • Battery life lenovo flex 14 - does not last long at all! (2h30)

    Hello , I got a lenovo flex 14 last september so it's very new.
    The battery lasts only 2 hours 45 when charged  fully.  I find it too short considering the computer is new and the battery is supposed to last between 5 to 8 hours on a lenovo flex 14.
    I am very average user. i am listening to music, typing word document, searching on the internet..
    I have already checked in task manager and no application seems to be running and "" eating" the battery.
    Do you have a similar issue to mine?
    Thank you for your help. I am wondering if my battery is defective...

    Me too im regret to buy apple product. Battery NO GOOD

  • Lenovo Flex 2 15 warranty is incorrect

    I bought my laptop on November 11th, 2014. I bought it at Futureshop in Canada. I looked up the warranty status and it has the wrong date on it. 
    I have called 2 times and they said it would be fixed in 24 hours. Today I check and it is still the incorrect date.
    Can someone @ Lenovo fix this? I can show you the receipt.

    I have a Lenovo Flex 2-15, and I want it to startup with Mozilla Firefox, but it opens Firefox as it is set to do in my startup file, but then it goes to Internet Explorer.  I think this must be a Lenovo thing, because know of someone else who has same settings, but they do not have this problem.  IE is not responding at this time, so it is a pain to get out of it.  Anyone know of any Lenovo settings that could be changed that override the startup instructions?  Or does anyone else have similar problem?  Help would be GREATLY appreciated.Thanks!

  • No wifi connections with Windows 8.1 on Lenovo Flex 2-14

    I got me a new Lenovo Flex 2-14 with Windows 8.1 on it yesterday, but I can't connect to my wifi network. In the tray there's always the red cross (not the yellow symbol) and no network is found at all.
    I read that a lot of users experience this, so I tried multiple drivers but none of them works. I tried the one pre-installed on the D drive, the newest one from the Lenovo website and also some that I found via Google when I searched for my wifi-adapter (it's a Realtek RTL8723BE). But as I said, no driver works.
    Does anybody have an idea what I could do? It's a completely new notebook, so I didn't change any settings.
    Thank you!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Actually I have no idea what wireless adapter I have, on the Lenovo page both drivers are listed. When I install the Realtek driver I at least see an entry in the Device Manager, whereas when I install the Intel driver nothing happens at all. I deinstalled the Intel Tools and reinstalled the Realtek driver afterwards, but nothing changed.
    In my router's settings I can only choose between channels 1 to 13, as far as I know these are at 2.4 GHz, right?

  • Lenovo Flex 10 touchscreen stops working after 1 hour of use.

    Just bought a new Lenovo Flex 10 from a retail and it works perfectly except that after an hour of use the touchscreen stops working, the computer still works ok, but only with the mousepad. The notebook came with Windows 8.1, and I haven't installed any program on it. I need an urgent response please, since i've been looking for days in the community and other support pages, and still can't get a satisfactory answer and the period to get the a refund are about to expire.
    Thanks in advance.

    hi riglesias,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Once the Touchscreen stops responding, can you check the following:
    1. Open System Properties and see if the Touch functionality is still there 
      - Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is not detected)
      - Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is detected)
    If the Touchscreen feature is detected, proceed to Step 2.
    2. Press the Windows key‌ +R, type devmgmt.msc and press Enter. On the Device Manager, navigate to the Human Interface Devices section and uninstall anything that says HID-compliant device (this is the driver that controls the touchscreen). When finished, reboot the system and observe.
    3. If the Touchscreen is still not working, hold the Shift Key and hit the restart button inside Windows and you should be able to see the image below then try to tap on the screen to test and observe. I
    If the touch capability is still not functioning, I recommend you contact lenovo for service.

  • Lenovo flex 2 can't connect to samsung LCD tv by HMDI

    I got a problem te connect my Lenovo flex 2 to my Samsung T200HD tv. wen i connect it says no signal... and yes i know i need to activate it from my computer. the thing is t doesnt find it. it says connect to screen by VGA... I dont have a VG poort, and i have no option to change it HDMI. The support desk of samsung say it my laptop software.... The thing is.. when i connected my laptop with the same HMDI cable to a other Samsung tv it works instantly. I have tryed all kinds of things and lloked on forums.. nothing worked... not updating the drivers... not reinstalling them.. i think its the combination between the useless Intel HD software and the Geforce software...  Does anyone has the same problem and a fix!  

    Update:
    I can connect through the IE Tabs extension on Chrome. In other words, when Chrome simulates an Internet Explorer browser tab, I'm able to connect. I'd still like to find a fix for this problem since I can't configure Outlook. Can anyone help me out?

  • Lenovo Flex 10 SSD upgrade

    Hi,
    This is my first post. I have just brought a Lenovo Flex 10 with a celeron n 2807 chip. I asked in the shop if they could do an ssd upgrade and they said they wouldn't recommend it because the celeron n2807 chip is not good enough to run an SSD internal flash drive. Would anyone recomened upgrading the interneral storage from the 5400rpm hard drive to an SSD?

    Pardon my lack of confidence in your shop, but that's a joke. SSDs will improve PC's right back to the beginning of the SATA offering. I have a NUC with the following Celeron:
    http://ark.intel.com/products/79052/Intel-Celeron-Processor-N2820-1M-Cache-up-to-2_39-GHz
    There is a huge performance gain from running an SSD on these. The only factor in whether or not to get an SSD should be if the size within your budget will hold all your data.

  • LENOVO FLEX 20 WI-DI

    Hi,
    I just received my Lenovo Flex 20 today and i was very dissapointed to find out that wireless display was not supported. I thought it will be compatible as i checked the Graphics card and processor prior of buying it but unfortunately it doesnt have a compatible wireless card. I really need widi for my job as i want to present everything wirelessly on another compatible WIDI TV .
    I was wondering whether if i buy The INTEL 7260AC wireless card and upgrade the system if i will be able to use widi. Will the system accept this wireless card? And if yes will i then just be able to install WI-DI software and make it functional?
    I just wanted to add that i already tried another 2 x card (which i took out from my laptop - A Railink card made in 2010 and from an old HP MINI netbook - A Broadcom card) and they had been accepted by the lenovo flex 20. What are your thoughts then?
    Will INTEL 7260AC be accepted by Lenovo Flex 20? If yes will this be enough to enable widi after installing appropriate software?
    Thanks for your kind help!

    Hi BLueArMy, welcome to the forum!
         I don't know if you can install a Intel 7260AC wireless card in your Flex, however: if you are running Win 8.1 (update 1) you shouldn't need to upgrade the card. Win 8.1 has the ability to use Miracast, to wirelessly connect to your compatible TV.
         I have the Lenovo A520, with a Realtek RTL8188CUS Wireless card, and it connects well with my Belkin SreenCast F7D4501 unit. I bought the Belkin ScreenCast to connect, via WiDi, my Y470 with Win 7. After I received the A520, and updated the  Win 8, to Win 8.1, I noticed that I had the "Connect To Another Wireless Device" in the charm bar Devices display. Just make sure you have the WiDi unit (or the setting in your TV) turned on, and the TV input is selected.
         It may take you a little tweaking to get it all set up. IIRC on the first setup, my A520 needed to download some Windows updates during the process. After that, all of the remote display settings are under the Intel HD Graphics manager.
         Let us all know how it goes.

  • Lenovo flex 2 14 touchpad showing im touching it

    My lenovo flex 2 14 touchpad is saying tham I have 4 fingers on the touch pad (which is evidently effecting it as i cant use it what so ever), when I dont. This occured out of no where, and no software, or system changes have occured to cause this issue, and I haven't the slightest cluse as to what caused it, furthermore when I touch the touch pad on the top left corner, it goes down to 2 or 3 fingers.
    im on windows 8.1.
    any advice or fixes would be appriciated

    I'm having this issue as well except on my Yoga 2 Pro. I have the pinch to zoom feature disabled (which is frustrating since it's a useful feature). Usually it zooms in when scrolling down, often to percentages between 800 and 900% view.

  • Lenovo Flex 2 14 display touch

    Hi all, I broke display touch of my lenovo flex 2 14 inch, can anyone tell me where I can purchase online a new touch for display ?

    I've found assembly display+glass+touch digitizer. But I don't buy it, it is the newer version and I think it does not compatible with flex cables on my laptop. On my laptop digitizer board is on the bottom side of the display, but here it is on top. I'm tot sure but flex cable can be not too long to connect.

  • Lenovo Flex 2 14: How to remove the compartment cover?

    I've got the new Lenovo Flex 2 14 with a 500 gb HHD. Now I want to upgrade to a ssd.
    The problem is that the hardware maintenance manual does not specify how to remove the compartment cover in case of the flex 2 14, which has no optical drive like the flex 2 15.
    I removed the screws that secure the compartment cover, but there is no way to remove the cover. Does anyone had the same problem and found a solution?
    I'd be very grateful for any tips!

    hi gi_homer,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Your issue might be similar to this thread.
    In addition to the screws around the compartment cover, have you also removed the screws underneath the keyboard?

  • Stylus for Lenovo Flex 2 14"

    Hello.
    I've just bought a Lenovo Flex 2 14" with Full HD screen (1920x1080).
    I'm interested in using a digital pen (stylus) for writing and drawing.
    Anybody has found a good stylus for this laptop? I have one with a thick rubber point, and the precision is very poor, the lines when I'm drawing always are discontinuous instead of straight.
    Thank you in advance, best regards
    Mike

    Hi again,
    As an update - I had a look to see if a 42mm ssd would fit. Unfortunately it does not. Some measuring and digging around indicates that is a 30mm (2230) slot - A/E keys. Nobody yet sell an ssd of this size.
    The only hope that I can see of is an extender such as the one here: http://www.amazon.com/P12S-P12F-M-2-NGFF-Extender-Board/dp/B00IPOT3O2. It looks like there is enough free space inside to take it, though uncertain.
    This would however require a PCI-e based ssd (the 2242 ones are usually sata ones), and based on people's experiences of upgrading the wifi, we'll be at the mercy of the hardware whitelist (as it's pci-e based). It looks like most pcie m.2 ssd's are 2280 size or bigger too, which might be pushing the room.
    Given the cost of the adaptor and right size/type ssd, the total cost is close to a decent 500GB 2.5" SSD, so I don't think I'll be attempting it. Plus I'd still lose the built in wifi
    Have a happy new year!

  • Lenovo Flex 15 strange cursor behaviour

    Hello everyone,
    I've purchased a Lenovo Flex 15 and downgraded it to Windows 7. Everything works like a charm, except that sometimes the cursor starts to move on its own to the top left corner on the screen where the "computer" and "my documents" folders are located and it starts to open them.
    This behaviour happens randomly... do you have any idea what is causing this?
    Thanks for the help.
    Atom

    I'm glad to hear it's improved! I haven't dug into the hardware too much, but usually the touchscreen is a USB device of some sort. However, the touchscreen usually uses a bus on the LVDS (maybe it's eDP now?) cable. This is why the resolution is typically lower than 1920x1080.
    For what it's worth, I've had no problems with mine either. I haven't pushed any new updates lately apart from the standard Windows updates, so your guess is as good as mine .
    Thank you for the update!

  • Lenovo Flex 2-14 Touch screen problem

    Hi, I have a Lenovo Flex 2-14, and I turn on the notebook but I found that the touch screen is not working, I restart the notebook but it doesn`t works. Is there any key or swith to turn on/off the touch screen? or what can I do to solve this problem?

    Hi Hoov,
    I've ruled out Windows being the problem as the same yellow tint appears in the corners when booting the laptop (the black lenovo loading screen displays the same yellow tint)
    I am beginning to think that maybe I've just been given two faulty Laptops. I would imagine that if it was a fault with all models of my type then there would be some information out there.
    I might take it back to the store again tomorrow and try 1 more, I'll also ask if they have any advice.
    I'll update the post tomorrow but in the meantime I am open to any suggestions as I don't really want to opt for another Laptop as this one is perfect (apart from the annoying Yellow in corners )
