Mini-DP on X1 Carbon 2014 Not working.

Hello, 
On Friday I received my new X1 Carbon Model (20A7) with the WQHD non-touch display. I have used two different HP 27" ZR2740w displays (one at a time) using the Mini-DP port on the device. This is the same setup I had with the previous gen X1 Carbon and it worked fine outputting to the 27" monitor, I also tried a new mini-DP to Display Port cable for the monitor, (three cables and none of them worked). 
I then went into the Lenovo Thinkvantage tools and downloaded everything it had available. Then went to Windows Update and got everything there that was available. Tested again, no go. I then uninstalled the Intel graphics driver, booted into pretty VGA mode, then re-downloaded the Intel driver from the Lenovo site reinstalled and no go. The BIOS on the computer updated, there are no addiitonal driver or application updates to download at this time.
Now I am thinking that the hardware is bad because I believe that the laptop can support a second 2560x1440 resolution display externally. 
This is with Win7 and the factory image.
Does anyone have any thought on this?

It should be plug and play. If it doesn't work out of box, it usually points to a hardware issue. The only other test I would recommend us to reset the system to factory condition and see what happens.

  • Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - not working for one user - working for another

    Hi,
    I recently have an issue with Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - NOT working for one user - working for another.
    Windows 7 updates recently installed ???
    By checking the device properties on the user that works - "Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad 13/10/2011 Version 15.3.29.0"
    When the other user logs on, the touchpad works for a few seconds, then a displays a black square with a red diagonal line through it, then the touchpad won't respond. Trying to use the keypad to navigate to system diagnosics or anything to find further info is useless....

    Hey eagle_no11,
    Thank you for joining the HP Support Community!
    I will do my best in assisting to hopefully get the TouchPad to work on the second user profile.
    What I would like to start off with, is to restore the original Synaptics drivers onto the profile that is not working correctly. I have included the document Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7).
    Once you have installed the original drivers, you will need to complete all updates from both HP, as well as Windows. For these updates, if you open the HP Support Assistant, and select Maintain, you should see an option for updating.
    Please let me know how these steps do work out for you.
    Have a great day!

  • Dual Monitors on Mac Mini Late 2014 not working on Dell S2340Lc

    Hey guys,
    Got a mac mini and using it mainly for work. Working for an ISP and no one has used macs and I've opted to be the poor sucker that gets to deal with old people that don't know how to mac very goodly.
    I have two Dell S2340Lc monitors. I have one connected up via HDMI and that works perfectly fine. I turned off the mac, I plugged in Monitor 2 with a MiniDP/Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter, powered on the mac and whilst it was booting, it had the Apple logo and the loading bar on the Dell display plugged in to the thunderbolt to hdmi adapter and then once it loaded up the log in screen, it went to the HDMI display. I logged in and in the displays section, the monitor plugged in to the thunderbolt to hdmi adapter isn't being detected, however I can plug it in to a Samsung 55 Inch Smart TV and it works just fine. I can set up dual monitors between the TV and the monitor in HDMI, but the Dell S2340Lc will only work with a HDMI cable into the HDMI port on the mac mini and will not work through the thunderbolt to hdmi adapter. On the display it just says that there is no signal coming from the computer.
    Just wondering if any of you apple gurus had any ideas as to why this isn't working?
    Thanks!

    What if you switch monitors?
    What happens if yo only have the Thunderbolt>HDMI>Dell monitor connected?

  • Iphone 6 bluetooth and my nissan rogue 2014 not working

    I've been trying to make calls using my nissan rogue bluetooth and my iphone 6. The device is paired but when I try to make a call it won't work. Do you guys know if this is something apple will fix with the next update? Has this issue been reported?

    Hey.  I am having this problem on my 2014 Jeep Willys.  I corrected it last night by resetting all settings(after chatting with an Apple tech online), but this morning it did not work again.  SMH!  I decided to reset network settings only and it worked.  I even turned off my Jeep and then back on.  The phone reconnected and worked.  Mine always connects, but no phone calls are able to be made or received.  So far this worked for me.

  • Apple Mini DVI to Video Adapter is not working. Please Help...

    I bought an Apple Mini DVI to Video Adapter to connect my Macbook to a TV using normal video cable. When I connect the cable, my Laptop DIsplay gives a flickr once and then it shows nothing. I checked Display in the system preference where I don't get a secondary monitor option. My TV is panasonic and it's an old one. I work on Final Cut Pro and it's very very important to see my videos on a TV. What am I doing wrong with the connection? Anyone Please Please help...

    Your probably not doing anything wrong. There are thousands of users with Similar issues and it seems to be with many different adapters.
    We have Mini DP to VGA (3 different brands) and they all fail most of the time. This seems more prevalent with LCD Projectors. I've tested some (50+) with VGA Monitor (HP) and they all worked, LCD Projector (Epson, Hitachi, and Sanyo) and they all fail, DLP Projector (Sanyo) and one worked.
    My Apple Mini DP to DVi works most of the time. My Mini DP to HDMI (Generic non Apple) works every time.
    The general consensus is that Apple broke something in the OS around 10.6.4 or 10.6.5 and its not yet fixed. As we are a school we have logged a case with the EDU Support group so will see what happens.

  • Mini display port to HDMI adapter not working

    I can not get my MacBook OS X to dispaly on my new Samsung LED TV. I have a mini display port to HDMI adapter (two years old) conneted with an HDMI cable (new) into the HDMI input on the TV. I tried both inputs, tried resetting the TV, plugging, unplugging, restarting, checked all my system preferences...I can not figure it out. I took my cables to a local store, tested the HDMI cable, and it works. Tested the adapter and they had the same problem I have on my Mac. The screen will flash blue when you plug it in, but will not show up in the TV. I think the adapter must be bad, nothing else makes sense???

    Hi Kater24,
    Apple doesn't make a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, so the one you've got there is a 3rd party one that's designed to work with the Mini DisplayPort on your Apple computer. The adapter is pretty much plug-n-play, there's no configuration necessary. Plug it into the machine, the HDMI cable from the other end of the adapter into your TV, select the HDMI input on your TV and fire up the computer.
    If that's not working it's possibly an issue with the adapter and/or cable to the TV. Any chance you might have access to another TV for troubleshooting purposes?

  • Droid Mini notifications for email and text not working

    I am having a problem with notification sounds not working for email and text messages with my Droid Mini. I took my original phone to the Verizon shop. They did a factory reset. Sound worked for two days. Went back to Verizon and they reset it again. But they did tell me if it happened again to call Verizon and they would send me a new phone. Well it happened again. Got my new phone just last week. Well yesterday and today the sound notifications for text messages and email is not working on the new phone.  Last night I powered the phone off and back on and all was working well until this morning.
    This is very upsetting as I really do like this phone. Would like to know what is going on with it. Have checked all the volumes and they are all up.
    Is there a fix for this.
    Thank you.

  • Mini DisplayPort - VGA and MBP 2011 not working

    Hi,
    I can't get my 13" mbp 2011 to connect to VGA screens. I've bought a mini DisplayPort to VGA converter (an Apple one, not a no name) and if I connect a display over VGA the screen stays black. My mbp recognizes the display, I can see the display's model, resolution etc but no signal. I've tried multiple screens, none work.
    I don't have other converters so I can't test if HDMI screens for example do work.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    I have a 2011 13" i7 and am having the same issue when connecting it to my LG TV through the HDMI adapter. However when I connect it to my HP external monitor it works but it's VERY blurry... so blurry that it hurts the eyes to look at it for more than a few mins.
    My previous MBP (2010 13") works fine however with both the TV and monitor. I even reconnected it just to make sure and they both work flawlessly.
    I only have 14 days total to return this new MBP and 5 of those days are used up so if I can't get this fixed by then I have no choice but to return it and go back to my old MBP.

  • HP Mini 110-3700 built-in camera not working

    I just bought my HP Mini 110-3700 (LV831PA#UUF) last january. I just tried using the HP camera twice to check if the image it captures is clear. Yesterday, i will use the camera for a video chat but the messenger said "Cannot detech the camera/ device is not connected).When I had clicked the link for the HP Camera it had open but the light indicator didn't have any light and the camera isn't working.
    I already tried restoring the HP mini to factory settings but after that, the camera isn't working still. What should I do? Need help ASAP.
    Thank you!

  • Hyphenation in InDesign CC 2014 - not working

    I can not get my hyphenation in InDesign CC 2014 to work. I have it selected in Paragraph styles. I have tried to select all the text and checked the hyphenate box. I have my language selected. I have tried to unistall InDesign and install it all over again. Delete the preferences. Well I think I have tried everything.
    I am doing a layout for a book and it just terrifies me to have to manually hyphenate it.
    Thanks in advance, Arna

    Sorry for asking about things you've already tried, but until you tell us we don't know for sure, so I have to ask to get confirmation.
    This is either a corrupt installation, a bug with the language (what happens if you temporarily select some other language?) or more likely a software conflict. We can check for the latter by turning off all non-Adobe plugins (including a font auto-activation plugin), and by restarting your Mac with extensions disabled by holding down the shift key while you start up. After the restart, try the hyphenation with nothing running except InDesign.

  • ThinkPad X1 Carbon scrolling not working

    Hello,
    I just received my new ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Type 20A7). This is running with Windows 7, 64 bits.
    Scrolling from the touchpad (with one or two fingers) does not work.
    I tried installing the latest drivers from Lenovo's website (although you would assume that the latest drivers are installed when you buy a new machine), but that did not help.
    When I go to the control panel and to the advanced settings for the touchpad, I can see that the scrolling features are activated. They just don't work.
    Sometimes, I notice that after startup, scrolling works for a couple minutes, then not anymore.
    Could you please help me out?
    Thank you,
    Cheers.

    Hi realkirua, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
    Remember that this is users helping users here, moderated by volunteers like me. Although there is some Lenovo presence, they can't patrol the entire community. They do try to help with some of the broader issues.
    The odd part about what you describe is that the UltraNav driver install fails (6hgx81ww.exe). Have you tried manually uninstalling the old one (Control Panel>Programs and Features) then runnning the installer again?

  • HT1212 ipad mini is frozen and home button not working

    my ipad mini home button is frozen and will not turn off.  I have tried holding the home button and of/off button for more than a minute and will not respond or shutdown.

    If the home button is not working, then the best option is a visit to an Apple store genius bar to have the techs check it out.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Parallax in AN files from CC to new CC 2014 NOT working

    I am still new to this and have been using the CC version of Animate until recently. I have a project that I started months ago, and am finally getting back to that I opened in the updated CC2014. Now all of my time-based scrolling (vertical Parallax) is NOT working. I have included screen grabs of the CC and the CC2014 pages. The CC2014 page has all of the elements showing and the dtage area is ignored. There is no vertical action either. I have also packaged the two files and placed them in a drop box for comparison. What do I need to do to get this working again? Thanks.
    Dropbox - CC-CC2014-Projects-G_Shaffer.zip
    ABOVE IMAGE - CC version - elements not showing outside of stage, as they are not suppose to be visible until they come onto the stage as the user scrolls vertically. This version works as I intended.
    IMAGE ABOVE from CC 2014 version -- everything is a mess!!
    Help Please.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    The upgraded composition is fine except the "Overflow" value for the stage is set wrongly.
    Set the "Overflow" from "visible" to "scroll", and things will work fine then.
