Memory upgrade on G560 and problems with removing the access cover

Hi, this is my first post here - just bought myself a Lenovo G560 following the demise of my HP nx6325.
The product I bought has only 2 GB RAM and so I bought an extra 2 GB chip from Crucial, which arrived here this morning.
I've started to follow the manual's instructions to remove the system cover to gain access to the memory slots but, after removing the 2 screws in the middle of the cover and loosening the 5 screws around the edge, the cover seems most reluctant to pop off. It doesn't seem a very substantial piece of plastic and I'm worried about breaking it.
I've tried gentle pressure under the little lip with a table knife but the cover doesn't seem to want to shift - it just bulges up at that point. I've checked and rechecked that I've removed the 2 screws in the centre and completely loosened the other 5......... Does it generally need some force to remove it, or am I doing something silly?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks, Duck3 - I got the cover off, but I required more than just a sharp pull with my finger. - in fact, I couldn't any purchase on the access notch with a finger. I had to use a large screwdriver in the notch and gently apply increasing leverage, far more than I would have had the confidence to do without your advice.
Anyway, now up to 4 GB and flying!
Thanks again for your help.

I have a tesco router and an external hard drive attached to it as a network drive (shared) for my macbook and MB-Air. Have no problems with my MB accessing it, but with MB-AIR it says - 'the version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. pls contact your system administrator to resolve the problem'. MB-Air uses maverick downloaded yesterday - upgrade from mountain lion. MB uses snow leopard still, as i am quite used to it and am thinking of upgrade if mavericks work fine on air. Also have parallel on snow leopard but it is no longer supported according to mac website - if i upgrade am i going to lose my parallel and will have to buy a new one!!!

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

Having a MBPr late 2013 and having a sound problem the sound does not come tom the headphones even its all the way up and when i remove the headphones it docent come out the internal speaker either ? any idea how i fix this?

the sound do not come out the headphones sometimes altho its all the way up in the setting and when i remove the headphones the sound doesnt come from the internal speaker either and only a reboot fixes the problem and thats annoying! any idea how tto fix this?

Hello. I've been able to play sound without problems through headphones or external speakers to date - the output always switched to these automatically until today. Now, sound output continues through internal speakers even if I plug in headphones or external speakers.
- I tested the headphones and speakers on other devices: they work fine.
- When I plug in headphones or speakers into the audio output port (I have verified that I'm not using the input jack) the devices are not detected and are not listed under the output tab in system preferences-sound.
I concluded from this that I probably had a problem with the audio port, so to test that I tried the following. I plugged a powered multi-USB device with ports for microphone line-in and headphone line-out into the USB port and switched it on. I verified that it was working by plugging a USB stick into the multi-USB device - this was recognised successfully, so the device was clearly working. I then plugged in headphones and speakers into the audio line-out on the multi USB device - but still no sound came through them (and tey were not listed among output devices) and the Mac continued using internal speakers.
What should I do? Does the latter test suggest that the problem does not lie with the audio port, or is my test not conclusive? What would you advise?
Many thanks indeed!

Problem with remove task from schedule in PWA

In our environment problem with remove task from schedule by PWA.
Problem is only when I want to remove few task in the same time, but the operation one by one is correct.
In my opinion problem is with calculation schedule after remove tasks, column ID include wrong value it means that Number ID does not generate in the correct order same of numer
disappear. Click Calculate button on ribbon causes problem with finshed operation and save project.
Problem occurs only machine with IE 11.0 browser without compability mode, on other machine for example on the same project with IE 8,9,10 everything is correct.
Problem appeared recently, earlier everything was OK.
Txn, Dariusz Moczyński

Hi Darius,
I'm a bit confused. You are now talking about 2 issues.
For the first one, you cannot edit anymore tasks in PWA, with any browser versions? Is it happenonog for any users on any projects? Try the following solutions publish the project from Project Pro and see if it helps. Press CTRL F5 to delete IE cache. Ensure
that your PWA URL is added to the trusted site and/or compatibility sites. Check for the ULS logs or javascript errors.
For the second issue, please refer to my previous reply, this obviously cannot be considered as a bug since it is happening with a non supported browser version and working properly on supported versions of IE.
Hope this helps,

Problems with removing transitions

I am using iMovie v5. When I remove transitions, my clips are not restored to the original version. For example, if I have two clips with a transition between them, and then I remove the transition the following happens:
1. Clip 1 will have a second or two of merged from Clip 2
2. Clip 2 will be truncated in the beginning by a second or two.
I have looked in the manual and other discussion threads and can't find an answer. Oh... I'm using the fade out transition.

John:
That can happen with non-destructive veideo.
Don't know for certain that this will fix it, but it sure won't hurt anything...
Quit iMovie.
Locate a file named com.apple.iMovie.plist and get rid of it. iMovie will create a new one the next time it runs. Empty the trash and restart imovie.

Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-sourcedevelopment and often compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open content movements.

I am having problem with using the Basic brush definition

I am having problem with using the Basic brush definition. When I try to click on it will not allow me to use it and will automatically use the 5 pt. oval brush definition. The only way I can use the basic brush is after I have already drawn something and then I have to click on the stroke and then press basic. This is incredibly annoying and if anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. (I have Adobe CS6)

for whatever reason, the basic 'brush' you see in the brushes palette effectively means removing any brush from a path. to draw with the brush tool you need a brush defined. in your case the last one selected being the 5 pt oval one.

How do I stop iTunes (10.7) from automatically launching upon restart? "Open at Login" is NOT checked in the dock and I have removed the app from Login Items under Users/Groups. I am using a MacBook version 10.7.5. Thank you!

Thanks for the response gakker, but I've double-checked the camera / iPhoto / Image Capture scenario, and I'm 100% positive it's got nothing to do with that.
Plugging in my iPhone has no effect on anything related to this.
The other thing I should have mentioned is that when iTunes on my Mac is NOT running, then nothing happens on my iPhone screen when I plug it in to my Mac. I only get the "Sync in progress" message when iTunes IS running.
It's interesting though that you say you also get this "Sync in progress" message, albeit only for a second or two though.
Can I just double-check something with you however... When you say:
+"at no time was my iTunes playback interrupted"+
do you mean the iTunes on your Mac? Because the problem I have is that the iPod-playback on my iPhone is interrupted.
So can you clarify that for me, please? If you have music playing on your iPhone, and you then plug your iPhone into your Mac when iTunes is running on your Mac, does the music playback on the iPhone get interrupted?

I want to know how to remove the back cover of my HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15 to install new memory?

I want to know how to remove the back cover of my HP Product name: HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15 to install new memory? All the HP website shows is how to remove memory covers. Unfortunately, with newer models like mine, the whole back cover needs to be removed. I have tried unsuccessfully to remove it but so far all that I have succeeded in doing is to scratch my cover. So can anyone help???
This question was solved.

Hi,
The procedure is detailed starting on Page 67 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.
Note: I don't work for HP, but looking at the degree of disassembly required, I would say the procedure may well void the conditions of warranty.

Can someone pls. Tell me how long it would take to have the iPad up and running from removing the plastic on the box?

Can someone pls. Tell me how long it would take to have the iPad up and running from removing the plastic on the box?

Upon applying for Telstra contract, salesman filled out all details & I was approved immed. He grabbed a new iPad 2 from the store's stock, all plastic wrapped, a white 32 gb. He then asked me if I needed to go and do some shopping as he had mucked something up and had to redo application. Everything had been completed and approved on screen, so I wasn't sure why he had asked me to come back in half an hour. I did so, and upon arriving back he was standing at the desk, iPad in hand together with receipt and box, no evidence of shrink wrap. As I already had bought a red cover, he basically grabbed that and slipped the iPad straight into it, without really asking me, and said, all ready to go. Was a bit surprised but accepted that. Did not see it being unwrapped, sim inserted or anything. Thought it to be odd, and without any further advice, was handed bag, box and receipt. Got home, thought it looked a bit fingerprinty, then wondered why it was basically set up ready to go. He knew I was a gadget freak, owning 25 wifi related devices, but had never bought apple products so he said I'd have no problems. There was virtually no set up to go through except for asking if I had an apple ID which I didn't so I created that and away I went. I was looking through the settings a bit later and noticed the ITunes said to sync back with WILLS-MSI when it was available. WILLS is the name of the store. There was a 32 gb white iPad 2 as a display model and now I am seriously wondering if he has taken that off the shelf and given to me. I have never in my life bought a display model and never would. From my description do you think I may be right? ( even the silver back looked 'not quite new').
OPINIONS appreciated, is there anyway of checking to see if a reset has been done as I am not at all happy & will be going straight to store manager on opening of store.

Problems with software the update with Nokia 6233

Problems with software the update with Nokia 6233
Hello,
I have so far some-paints tries my software to update.
Each time the update procedure begins, sometime stands then on the telephone “test mode”.
On the computer wars I the reference in the update manager “connection to the telephone broken off” and wants the update to again start.
If I change my profile attitudes since that for example, then after a telephone restart again deleted.
What there can I make?

It sounds like your 5800 has the earpiece fault that was common with 5800's made before February.
You need to take it to a nokia care point for repair under warranty.

You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone. That's relatively easy. Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one. For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.
