Lenovo Solution Centre Small Business Maintenance

The model is a 3347 (ThinkPad Twist) running Win 8 64 bit. The version of the Small Business Solution Centre being run is 1.1.27.5565 (which by the way has not been posted in Downloads).
Four jobs are to run after hours: namely, After Hours Maintenance, Disk Defrag, Delete Cookies, and Delete Temp files. The first is run daily and the others weekly. The machine is supposed to wake up to run the tasks (whether powered off or sleeping). The problem is the jobs fail to run with only a "task incomplete" notation. There is no entry in Event Viewer to explain the failure. I can run the tasks manually without a problem.
I also note that the first job is not listed in Task Scheduler but the other three are, under Intel. Nonetheless all jobs fail to run as scheduled. The machine has been plugged in at night.
My first thought was to reinstall the program but I can't find this version for download. Suggestions?

This is going straight to downhill
I found update to Intel Management Engine for Win 8.1 here:
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&DownloadType=Drivers&keyword=intel+manage...
I updated it and this is what it did!!
So now I get rid of that annoying update box that thold me tu update IME but now whole Lenovo Solution for Small Business program wont work anymore

Error when installing Lenovo solutions for small business [Screenie included]

Hello everyone.
Recently, I tried opening the pre-installed Lenovo solutions for Small Business software on my Lenovo e530 running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit version (Upgraded from Win 7 Home Prem 64-bit) but failed after getting a message for encountering a critical problem of some sort. I then tried restarting my computer and that did not solve the problem. And then, I decided to install an upgrade version of it from this website http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS030146. But before that I uninstalled the previous version by uninstalling Intel Small Business advantage customizations with Revo Uninstaller and I deleted all the related folders too with a thorough scan. Out of my expection, I got this message below saying that I could not proceed due to some unspecified error. Has anyone encountered the same problem before? Does anyone have a solution for this? I'm not sure if that's my computer's problem or from the driver itself. Thank you for your attention to this issue.

Hi, dougy
This should be configurable under msconfig. This is a program that you can use to tell your computer which programs you want to start when Windows starts. To get to this program, type msconfig into the search bar in the Start menu. A window should appear. Check under the Startup tab and make sure that the Lenovo Solutions for Small Business program does not have a checkmark next to it. This should prevent this program from starting up when your computer turns on.
Hope it helps,
Adam

Twist/S230u bug: cannot start Lenovo Solutions for Small Business after installing updates

An issue may happen after running ThinkVantage System Update and selecting all available updates. After rebooting, Lenovo Solutions for Small Business will fail to launch. This issue happens because of a failure during one of the updates.
To fix the issue, download and install the Intel MEI driver. Although this software is already installed on your system, it is in a broken state. Installing it again will fix it, and let Lenovo Solutions for Small Business run successfully.

Thank you someotherguy for the solution and it solved the startup problem of Lenova solutions for small business..

Problem Alerts with Lenovo Solution Centre (Thinkpad B50-30)

Hello All,
I am experiencing problems with the Lenovo Solution Centre on a brand new Lenovo B series laptop B50-30 Windows 8.1.
First off upon booting the laptop for the first time I was getting an alert message for the warranty saying. it was not available.
I thought this may have been due to the fact that on warranty status, the start date was incorrect. I did email a copy of the receipt and the date has now been corrected. However, I am still getting an alert in the Lenovo Solution Centre saying warranty not available (please see first picture).
I looked around the web and found one solution that involved uninstalling Lenovo Solution Centre, rebooting, reinstalling Lenovo Solution Centre and rebooting but that hasn't helped.
In fact now, I am getting two alerts. The same warranty alert again and one about storage devices (please see second picture).
The Lenovo Solution Centre is saying that a partition on the hard drive has less than 9.5% available (third picture) but as you can see in the fourth attached picture there is plenty of space. I have only had the laptop a week and there is hardly anything on there.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in Advance

The alerts about low available space in a partition showed up with the latest version of LSC.
There are 2 other posts here with the same type alert message.
Maybe the next release of LSC will address the issue (bug).

Unable to install / upgrade or remove Lenovo Solution Centre

I'm getting following error while installing/upgrading or while removing lenovo solution center. I googled for the error code & found the links with windows installer error issue. But my windows installer is working good and could able to install all applications except lenovo solution centre.
I tried to delete directory and to install the newer copy but still getting this error.
Kindly guide me to remove it completely(maybe registry items to be removed ) and get it freshly installed.

Was your win7 install a Shipped lenovo install or win7 from box store install?
LSC current is version 2.0.020, released march 20, 2013.
If you used system update, it MAY not offer the most current release.
LSC MSI install log is in C:\Users\YOUR id\appdata\local\temp\LSC.log .
If you used factory install version of LSC, it is old.
==
you stated 2 issues.
(1) Some lsc version wont execute, lets say factory version.
(2) Upgrade/reinstall of some version of LSC, does msi failure, 1721.
==
I just installed Latest LSC, will uninstall shortly.
(1) error 1, you need to perform your first backup IE RNR, windows backup. dah, backed up weekly for 18 months (rnr) . error 2, You do not have enough space to perform a backup operation.
exact screen:
If you have an additional external hard drive, you can back up your data to that device. To view Lenovo external hard drive options available for purchase, Shop now.
155 GB free on my second HDD, my backup drive. SHOP NOW. Last incremental was 328 MB.
(2) warranty expired (correct), Benefits to product registration ( did that in 2008). Register NOW. But it knew i had a 3 year warranty.
(3) Hardware scan recommended. Thank you, 1 correct, Still using pc-doctor.
(4) You have windows update set to not auto install. correct.
(5) Adobe-air self updated on the 2nd launch of LSC.
IF you 1721, you ahead of the game.
Just download the hardware check LSC (linux). Need ISO burner software. download Memory check if you wish.
My 1st year on current, 2GB memory failed, mouse failed, DVD burner failed. POS-lsc, point of sale? Use your favorite seach engine , search POS if you wish.

Lenovo Solution Centre - Software updates: How to recognize which software to update?

Hi,
I have Lenovo Solution Centre v2.4.002. When I am inside "Home" section, it indicates with "!" symbol above "Updates" picture that I have some software unupdated.
So I go into "System" section where I see number 1 above "Software updates".
When I click on "Software updates" there is only this information: "Go to Lenovo's Website to update the Lenovo software on your system". But I do not know WHICH software I have to update. Lenovo Solution Centre does not told it to me.
Please, how to recognize WHICH program/driver is out of date and therefore LSC ask me to update it.
Thanks.
Mirek
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@mirek...
It's a manual process. You'll need to open up Device Manager on your machine, double-click specific devices (such as Audio), switch to the Driver tab, and there you will see what version is installed. Then you can look at what is available in the driver matrix and decide if you want to update a particular driver.
The general wisdom is that it may not be necessary to update a driver unless your having a specific problem, or the driver adds some new desired functionality. This is especially true for BIOS updates.

G580 Lenovo Solution Centre can not show me the warranty period

For some reason, the program Lenovo Solution Centre can not show me the warranty period, as the model of the motheboard is not detected ... On the site of Lenovo - product registered as a detective in the Netherlands.
How do I register my laptop and what could be the problem?
ps:
BIOS - 5ECN96WW
Product number: 2189

hi musto,
Welcome to the Forums.
The Lenovo Solutions Centre Requires the serial number to show the warranty information. If the software is not able to read it, this may be the problem.
You may get the latest version below and you may register the product using this link.

Which solution for small business

Hello,
Our office has 30 users (single location). Right now we use an expensive PBX system provided by a third-party. We have some Cisco expertise in our company, so we would be comfortable replacing it with a Cisco solution.
I'm familiar with CUCM v8/9 at customer locations, but that's obviously overkill for us. I'm not too familar with the smaller products. In doing some research it looks like we'd be looking at one of three options:
SBCS - UC500
Cisco Business Edition 6000/7000
CME running on a router
Are there any documents that might compare these solutions? I've read the individual data sheets, but still confused about the real-world differences. Specifically features that may push us to one solution or another. We just need basic features (voicemail, moh, single number reach). Our phones are SPA models today, but we would like support for the traditional IP 79xx phones as well.
Thanks
Bill

Thanks. I will definitely contact a partner as we move along in the process, but I just wanted to do a little research on my own first.
Thanks for the explanation -- that helps a lot. So from a price point of view it sounds like BE6K would be a bit more expensive (since it's CUCM/UCXN vs express versions). And you wouldn't look at the SBCS? Is that truly a Cisco product or is it some re-branded Linksys type acquisition?
Thanks!

Need photo cataloging/management solution for small business

Hi,
I'm about to be tasked with setting up a way to manage thousands of high res images coming in from various photo shoots for our upcoming projects. We are a Mac-based office, and have an Xserve as our local file/web server which we will install something on.
- Ideally it'd be something hosted locally from the Xserve so that it's easily updated via the file server. Easiest would be an app that helps import batches of new images, or has a folder where we can drop new batches directly. Online web services are not ideal as we'd like to house all the data locally.
- Could be software-based, ie if there's a package that has a server app we can install on the Xserve and run client apps on local machines to access, OR could be web-based, ie image gallery software I install on the Xserve, which we could access in or out of the office (external access would be most helpful). Web based may be the way to go.
- Main thing is that it's easy to browse and search thumbnails, view larger preview on screen, then download full size image when ready
- Ideally individual users would be all be able to tag/organize content
- Super extra bonus points if users can create their own lightbox/favorites to select images for a particular project, and save their settings etc.
- Simple, clean, easy to use interface would be excellent. We don't need something that does 1000 things, just the above things really well.
Thanks for any and all suggestions!

There used to be a good program that did just that: iView MediaPro (worked on a Mac). But Microsoft bought them in 2006, changed the name and upgraded the product, and I'm not sure if you can find a version that will do just that anymore.
They call it Microsoft Expression Media and they have several different flavor of it.
Here is a link to the iView MediaPro website that will refer you to the Microsoft site for Expression Media http://www.iview-multimedia.com/
Not sure if that will help you.

Small Business w/Mac Mini Running Server OSX, Connect From Home Solution - VPN?

I am trying to setup my Mac Mini running OS X Server (Mountain Lion) to be accessed from users at home (for file sharing and Contact Services). Is a VPN the best solution? (Small business setup - privacy/security a concern).
Hi everyone, and Thanks for the help in advance!
I am currently setting up a network for my company (small business) and have a few questions. We have a Mac Mini (mid-2012) running Server OS X Mountain Lion, and 5 MBP's (our work computers- all running latest version of Mountain Lion).
To summarize:
My goal = Setup a secure way of connecting the MBP's to the server when our personnel are at home (for file sharing).
I am switching all of the users from local to network (we didn't need the network functionality when we first setup the server, and we are now expanding our use of it). This is going to occur this weekend, as downtime for the server is needed to make the changes.
After I establish the Open Directory and all of that, I will be setting up Contact Services (to share a master list of contacts with the members of our department) and we already have some Calendar sharing setup.
The purpose of this is to enable our employees the option of working necessary overtime from home so they can be with their families instead of in the office all the time. It is a noble cause and I want to set this up the best that I can for them.
This being said... I'm no Mac Genius, and this stuff can get very confusing very fast. I have read a little about VPN's, and am wondering if this is the solution to my problem. We need to establish a SECURE way of connecting to the server from remote locations, enabling us to pull needed files from the server.
If anybody can offer some advice on this I would really appreciate it. I love Apple products and I have faith that this is as easy as I've been told it is.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration!

No, it wasn't difficult at all to setup in OS X Server. I use a free internet domain name from DynDNS.com. I don't know if they still offer free ones anymore. You can not use VPN and 'Back to My Mac' at the same time as they use some or all of the same ports.
I'm at work and not on my Mac at the moment so this is from memory.
Within OS X Server, I enabled the VPN Service (default L2TP) and used my free domain name in the VPN Host Name and a Secret passphrase. This put an entry in my Airport Extreme router for VPN (port mapping).
Within the client Mac, I added a VPN network connnection (System Preferences /Network). I pointed to my free domain name in the Server Address, used my Server account name in the account name. I think there's an Authentication button that I clicked. I entered my Server account password, the Secret passphrase in the Secret field, checked a box to show VPN icon in Menu Bar and exited out of that. Then clicked the Advanced button and checked the box to send all traffic over VPN connection.
I had VPN authentication issues at first when trying to connect to test out the connection. I just kept trying as I knew I had all the settings correct and it would finally connect after about 3-4 tries. After that, I sometimes have to connect more than once to actually connect to my Server via VPN. But it does work nice. I brought my MBP into work once to test it out and was able to connect to my home Server via VPN and use Screen Sharing and had access to all my shared folders.

Lenovo Solution Center - Sugar Sync- uninstall

Since uninstalling Sugar Sync, Lenovo Solutions Centre reports under Device Manager that there is a problem with the driver StorLib Bus. When I check in Device Manager, Storage Controllers, Microsoft Storage Spaces Controller, the device is working correctly. What needs to be done to LSC to make it not report a problem that probably isn't there.
Any help, Thank you. Petedf.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to inform that it is a false indication from Lenovo solution center. Since Windows doesn’t detect any missing device drivers within the device manager, there is no driver that is missing.
If the warning keeps popping up, change the reminder settings to “never”. Probably, you have to wait for an LSC update in which the bug would be fixed.
Refer here for further information regarding the issue.
Hope it helped!
Best regards,
Mithun.

Maintenance Fuction Will Not Work on HP Solution Centre

I have my HP Pavilion laptop going to my HP Photsmart B209a-m printer via my Netgear Wireless router.
I can print scan and read the ink levels in the Solution Centr, but if I go to >Settings>Printer Toolbox< none of the maintenance function will work,
Message box “The computer is unable to establish a two-way communications with the device”
If I go to>Devices and printers and right click>Printer preferences>Features tab< and click the box Printer Services, all the same maintenance functions will work.
So there is a way out of this.
As I seem to working on a knife edge with this software, in case I lose all of the function again, I am do not want to try anything like reloading drivers etc. unless there is a definite reason/fix why this does not work.
But would appreciate an explanation and fix, or is it just poor software? Even running the troubleshooter before, I lost the printing function and had to do a restore.

Looking at other threads, it would appear that there was software problem with Solution Centr before ver 13.
I have been on to HP support because I could not find out which ver I have, they tell me I have ver 14 but were not clear how I could check this myself.
If this is the case there must still be a bug in the sofware preventing my Toolbox from working.

Does apple have any explanations for why iCloud will not support iWeb & is there any viable solutions. iWeb is critical to my small business & we have all been trained via joint ventue on iWeb. Now it just goes away. Why?

Just to add this : iWeb -- the app itself -- is still supported,updated only months ago and as part of the ilife '11 DVDs still widely spread even though it is not sold on the AppStore it is official part of iLife. It runs in Lion and there is zero issues with the app. So a training makes sense, doesn't it ?.
They would only to exclude the "publish to me.com" part to be up to date for courses and trainings :-≠

Lenovo A740 solution centre

Hi,
I have had this pc for a month, quite fun and sleek. I haven't really had any problems except for the solution center.
I have had two alerts, one for backup which I promptly solved and the second for a hardware scan. Every time I have attempted to perform the hardware scan I was given the error message: "Lenovo Solution Center Service is not available. Please restart the application, or reboot your computer if the problem persists."
I have recently updated the solution center but this did not change anything.
Would anyone be able to help?
Kind regards,
Mike

HI ALL
I have taken Lenovo A740 on 7th Feb . I have been facing the following problems since day ONE
1 MOTION COTROL IS NOT AT ALL WORKING
2 NFC NOT AT DETECTED IN BIOS So NATURALLY NFC IS NOT WORKING TOO
3 Lenovo has done Partion C (100 gb) for OS and if I try to add any program to my system the memory in C goes upto 90-95 GB with a warning of low space. All my data is stored in D drive. I did 3 times reinstallation of OS thru One key recovery , 4 time thru restore . Now in my C drive I have only the Windws 8.1 OS, which has taken almost 50 GB
I have contacted Lenovo , ceremoniously I was made their guenia pig for testing the system. 5 times the techies visited. Last visit, the techie wanted to open the PC to see whether the NFC is installed properly , I refused to open the PC
WOnder anyone has some clue about A740 as Lenovo India is not able to solve my problem even after 15 days and i am afaraid to use my PC
Could anyone advise whether the HDD could be upgraded to 2 TB 7200 rpm as I could feel the speed is quite slow in comparision with my iMac
Thanks
