Hi Krito007,
Does this issue persist only in battery mode or both in adapter and battery mode? Also update the graphic driver and check for the issue.
Click here for the graphic driver for windows 7(32 bit).
Click here for the graphic driver for windows 7(64 bit).
Click here for the graphic driver for windows 8.1.
Hope this helps. Do post back if the issue persists.

Lenovo T500 battery stays on %100 for awhile then drops down to %99 for no reason

Hi,
The Lenovo T500 battery stays on %100 for awhile then drops down to %99 for no reason. What's up with this and how do I fix this issue? My laptop is really confusing me. The green battery says it's totally charged %100 and the little AC adapter icon in the system tray says "%99 available (plugged in, not charging.")
Thanks,
Liz

Hello Liz,
that is considered to be normal.
It´s bettter for a Li-ion battery not to be charged fully, so the powermanager don´t load the whole time.
That´s why the percentage could drop. But thats not a problem thats a feature.
if your battery handling is set to automatic in powermanager then, eveythings is ok.
Do you use your machine with AC plugged in the whole time?

Lenovo Y50-70 15.6 wireless issue

Dear All,
I have purchased this laptop from Amazon and I am very unhappy with the wi-fi network performance. I have already installed/reinstalled drivers, energy management, disabled adaptor, enabled, changed wifi card settings, created a new power profile, etc. etc. etc.
All my efforts have been useless and because of this I want now to change my wifi card. Please recommend another wifi card which is WHITELISTED and works properly.
I have bought a mid-to-high spec laptop and I expect to use it as per the 1000£ i have paid for it.
Please let me know what other WIFI cards are supported/accepted.

Thank You

Dear Cabbton,
Thank you for you reply.
I have also read the pages regarding the wi-fi issues and (unfortunately) I can confirm that I have the same poor network connectivity using wireless connection.
That is the reason for which I am asking OFFICIAL support from LENOVO, so I can use my brand new ~1000£ laptop as it is advertised - one of the best gaming experience.
Dear Lenovo/Lenovo support team,
I am a buyer in good faith, I have bought your product as it was advertised and I feel that I am unable to use the product as advertised because of the issues which lie in your fault (poor network connectivity) and not in my fault (wrong usage,etc).
I am unable to take full advantage of the product you sold me because of hidden defects/hidden restraints which were not brought to my attention - I mean here I cannot change the flawed wi-fi card you put into this product because of the BIOS lock you have placed and who doesn't accept other components that are not from you.
If you will not actively help me to fix this issue - the only choices you are giving me are:
-try to use a faulty product - this will frustrate me and cause a great deal of resent and unhappiness
-mod the bios and VOID my warranty (I have paid for that warranty in the price of the laptop!)
I kindly request you to take actions and provide the help I have requested in solving this issue.
Thank you in advance
George

If anyone has any idea how to fix this will be wonderfull b3cause is imposible 3 new laptops to have HDMI port broken or 4 hdmi cables to not be good and 1 new just buy it with 4k support and 5 tv's to dont work

Hi GaBI13,
You can switch on - off the wireless by pressing (airplane mode) F7 or Fn-F7. If this doesn't help you check that wireless device is present in Device Manager, is enabled and working properly (no arrows or yellow triangle present on device). If everything OK go to Control Panel-Network and Internet-Network Connections, identify the Wireless Network Connection. If this is Disabled, double click to enable it, right click and choose Connect. The driver for WiFi you can find here in case that you need.
Hope this will help you.

Help Lenovo Y50-70 Win 8.1 clean install

I'm new to Lenovo, Win 8 and to this forum. I'm considering buying Lenovo Y50-70 Notebook model 59441814 - Intel Core i7 4270HQ, 8GB DDR3L, 256GB SSD, NVIDIA GTX 860M 4GB, 15.6" Touchscreen, 4K UHD, USB 3.0, no DVD drive and Win 8.1 pre-installed. I also have retail MS Win 8.1 Pro "Full Version" 64 bit DVD and key. Would like to upon receipt of latptop to: (1) replace 256GB SSD with a Crucial MX200 500GB SATA 6Gb/s 2.5" SSD, and (2) do a complete clean install using my retail 8.1. Reasons are: increased capacity and get rid of all the unnecessary stuff that Lenovo pre-installs. Since I don't have a DVD drive and I have read there are some issues with boot secure, can someone provide recommendation on sequence of steps to follow. and /or how to.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi Forest1,
Welcome to the Forums.
When you receive the Y50-70, can you try these steps:
1. Follow this video disassembly guide on how to replace the HDD with an SSD. Alternatively, you can also watch this youtube video on how to replace the drive.
2. If you're planning to install Windows 8.1 Pro in UEFI mode, follow this guide on how to convert the DVD installer into a USB installer. When finished, boot into the BIOS and set the following settings then hit F10 to save and exit.
- Link to picture
Secure Boot = Disabled
USB Boot = Enabled
OS Optimized Defaults = Other OS
When finished, boot from the USB flashdrive that you created (by tapping F12 and selecting the flashdrive on the boot manager) and you should be able to install Windows 8.1 Pro on the SSD.
Regards

Problem is, when I plug my iPhone 5 into my computer, the computer recognizes the iPhone, but for some reason, iTunes doesn't realize it's there

Alright, I've had this problem for a while now, and I'm at my wit's end. Hope someone can help me.
First of all, I'm running Windows 8.0 on a Lenovo, using iTunes 11.1.5, and an iPhone on iOS 7.0.6.
Problem is, when I plug my iPhone 5 into my computer, the computer recognizes the iPhone, but for some reason, iTunes doesn't realize it's there. On top of that, every time I plug in, my phone gives me the same "Trust this computer?" prompt, like it doesnt recognize the computer I told it to trust 5 seconds ago. A couple times, I got lucky and iTunes dignified me with a "An iPhone has been detected, but could not be identified properly." prompt. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mobile device driver, updating everything, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, resetting my iphone settings, but nothing works. Any ideas?

ANOTHER Lenovo Y50 case defect issue and terrible customer service

I don't normally do forums but have been so infuriated by Lenovo customer service I felt obliged to sign up and share my experience.
I bought a Lenovo Y50-70 in November 2014. Within one month I noticed a small plastic part near the hinge was missing (i.e. I noticed the other side was intact and how it should look). I sent this to Lenovo for repair and received a call 5 mins ago to say this won't be repaired under warranty and that I will have to pay for it. This is absolutely outrageous and from the number of posts on this very forum it appears this is a common defect with this particular case. I asked the customer service rep if there was anything he could do and all i received was a very short blunt manuscript response, exhibiting no intention to help. I am not prepared to pay for shoddy design/workmanship and so my only option offered was to receive the laptop back unrepaired.
This is absolutely incredible that a company as big as Lenovo can treat their customers in such a fashion. Unless an administrator on this forum wishes to investigate this matter (as it's currently still with Lenovo repair centre) I certainly won't make the mistake of buying or recommending a Lenovo again.

So Lenovo/Medio have had my laptop for 20 days now. 2 weeks ago I was told they wouldn't repair it under warranty and would return it unrepaired. Still nothing. I called customer service yday who promised to investigate and get in touch. Nothing. I called again today, same response i.e. would investigate. It seems there is a huge communication problem between Lenovo and their Medion repair centre.
I am now looking into a legal resolution as surely under the sale of goods act it is illegal to retain an item for so long despite no repair actually taking place. You would also think Lenovo would have the decency to offer to repair the small damage (which I was quoted £80 for) as compensation for delay. But alas no, what Lenovo know about customer service is less than 0.
The fact a representative hasn't even bothered to respond on here is testimony to their lack of care and respect for customers.

Display dims with no reasonlem occuring, then for no reason I can thihnk of

I have a 21" G5 imac. the problem is my display dims for no reason. This is an intermitant problem. I can go for long periods with out the problem then for no reason it will do it again.
It now dims after about 3 minutes starting up the computer. It does not go blank, just dims somewhat, but because I use the computer to edit photos in Photoshop it makes it unusable for photo work.
I got the computer in the Summer of 2005 and it was doing it while under warranty but since it was very infrequent I did not report the problem to Apple care. Of course it is now out of warranty.
Any ideas of what is causing the problem, and what to do?
Thanks in advance.

I have a similar problem. The screen will intermittently just go dim. I also decided not to give the machine up for warranty service because it comes and goes. The screen setting always says it is at full brightness. I installed a temperature monitor program, and it seems to be heat related. If I leave the computer sit for a while and the screen to turn off, when I come back it is back to normal. I found that if I put the iMac to sleep, it would re-brighten immediately on waking up. But now the machine usually turns off if I put it to sleep, so I have quit doing that....

I own photoshop elements 6 and premiere elements 4 (p/n 29180383). Just bought a Lenovo Y50-70 touch, can I purchase an upgrade?

Can photoshop elements 6 & premiere 4 be upgraded for use on a windows 8 Lenovo Y50-70 touch? The upgrade option on the Adobe site doesn't list my software version?

Hi Rosera,
This is bad and I am sorry to hear that you are running into these issues.
Let me connect with you, so right now, the current state is that you have installed copy of PSE 8 in trial on your windows 7 machine, and when you are trying to enter the serial number from your PSE 8 Box, it is saying the serial number to be invalid?
It might sound pretty obvious, but please make sure that you are entering the serial number correctly and of PSE 8(in case you bought a PEPE box)?
Have you tried the steps mentioned below by Barbara?
If possible, you can send me the serial number through PRIVATE MESSAGE and I can check it on my end that whether the serial number is indeed invalid or that the issue is with your machine?
Regards,
Ankush

HP Probook 4710s shuts down for no reason!

Hello everyone,
I own an HP Probook 4710s laptop for about 3 months now.
Recently I played Call Of Duty MW2 and after a while of playing it just shut down for no reason.
I played it before on my laptop but it didn`t shut down.
And just recently I played Age Of Empires 3 and it also shut down.
It happened twice with Age Of Empires.
Tho it never happened when I wasn`t playing games I`m still concerned and would appriciate any kind of help or explenation from anyone.
Thank you.

Check your Event Viewer logs at the time of the shutdown and look for critical errors and events. It sounds like a heat problem.

Lenovo Y50-70 screen problem

Hello. Recently, i have bought the Lenovo Y50-70 laptop and it seems that there is some screen problem. I have a feeling that it does flicker sometimes (1-2 per hour, sometimes more). Firstly, I thought that the backlight changes for a second, but then, after more observation, it might be it turning off and on immediately, or the colours fade and return to normal. I can't say for sure, what it is, because it happens very quickly, but the eye catches it anyway and it is kind of annyoing. Moreover, once the screen went completely crazy, it started to turn off and on every 2-3 seconds, big portions of view weren't even displayed, and what wasn't displayed changed every time it turned off and on. There were also green and red dots moving all over, mouse was moving in slowmotion (like I were playing a game in 15 fps). Only the restart helped and it stopped. So the question is, what is wrong and what am I supposed to do? Sorry, if the english is bad, but it isn't my native language.

I live in South Africa. Bought the notebook on 14 July 2015, within 2 weeks I started experiencing the screen flickering and grey lines. I was told by Lenovo to roll back drivers, then update drivers etc. - nothing worked. I returned the laptop to the supplier who in turn sent it to Lenovo. Lenovo has offered to replace the unit. I am hesitant to accept another unit and am thinking of rather getting a refund so that I can buy an Acer Aspire V Nitro (same specs). My previous laptop was an Acer and did not give me a day's trouble. Don't bother trying to update drivers or open the screen to plug it into the motherboard etc. I think the issue is a power supply one and that Lenovo should do a recall of this product. I am just thankful that South Africa has consumer law which forces a supplier to replace, repair or refund a defective product within 6 months from purchase if the consumer wants - so they can't simply repair, if I want a refund, they must give me one. Good luck! PS: This was my first and last Lenovo product!

[Solved] Lenovo y50 clickpad gestures

Greetings all,
I recently bought a lenovo y50 and went through hell trying to get arch to work on this. Well, after I have everything running nicely, I noticed that the touchpad/clickpad will not respond to multitouch (e.g. no two-finger scroll). I have tried all the drivers on the touchpad and synaptics archwiki pages as well as the settings in both cinnamon and gnome. Nothing seems to change the behavior. Does anyone have any ideas? My hardware shows as Elantech hardware.

Find comment #137 from HERE and follow the instructions
This fixed worked for me! Everything works perfect!

Do any of you have the touchscreen variant? I ordered the touchscreen one and it should arrive in the first week of August.
I have the touchscreen variant. It works pretty well, but doesn't detect multitouch. When pressing on the screen it registers as a mouse click+mouse movement, which is how windows 8.1 works.
Well, detecting one touch is better than it not working at all.
Mine got delayed twice, now it's scheduled to ship on August 15 and arrive on the 22nd (2 days after I start school, which is what I bought it for...) (I ordered on June 29). I'm pretty sure Lenovo will delay it again
Dang. Well hopefully it doesn't get caught it customs like mine did (assuming you are in USA). Customs held mine for two weeks! it took a month and a half after I placed the order to get it. Good luck! And by the way, I edited the OP with the solution.

Lenovo Y50 creating loud noise

hello there!, seems i have problem with my lenovo y50, its creating wierd noise i dont know where is it coming from. here you can hear it from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ5BCoSSOGE i already have the lastest version of bios so anyone have any idea where's this noise coming from or what is the problem? thanks!

Basically there is only two moving parts in your computer. The hard drive or the cooling fan. With either device that noise is not normal and would indicate to me that the device is falling. I would recommend you contact Lenovo Support for assistance in correcting the problem.

If Lenovo or MIcrosoft can provide an update to the driver it may work. This might be ongoing with Microsoft or Lenovo. Why not install the optional windows update KB3035583 so that you will see if your unit will qualify later if the taskbar icon will show up (if you hover over it, it will show "Get Windows 10").
