Need win 8.1 installation from disk on yoga 2 pro instructions

I need "idiot-proof" instructions (I'm quite technical, but believe in clear instructions) for reinstalling win 8.1 on my yoga2 pro. My Windows Update stopped functioning during an update cycle and it would not repair during restore/reset. I have the four installation CD's from a problem Lenovo created earlier (i.e., it was free) and have istalled it before. I just don't remember how to get to everything (BIOS) and what settings.

I did try removig the Lenovo energy management software, but that didn't work. I also then reinstalled and tried setting it to Performance mode. However, I didn't look for a Windows power mgmt solution.
What's weird is that after I powered down and used the Novo button to check the BIOS version (just to confirm what I said earlier), when I restarted Windows again I did not see the Hyper-V error message. I haven't restarted again, but will check again tomorrow morning when Windows starts again.

I need help with finding right stylus pen for lenovo yoga 2 pro!

I did read other person's post, but I did not find my answer. I am currently using my fingers to write my notes and it drives me nuts! I do have a stylus pen that have huge round fabric tip. It does not write well. I want a stylus pen with pointy end so I can acturally take my notes on OneNote. I writes equations down so it is very hard to write small and neat with my hand. I do know that my laptop is touch sensitive so it only works with rubber or fabric tips! I could not find any stylus pen with those tip that are pointy.... I need help on finding pointy tipped stylus pen that will let me write well. I am ordering ati-glare screen protector because I can see myself on the screen like a mirror... lol Hopefully this will not keep me from finding a pen that works well! Please give me link to the pen, if you can! Thank you for reading!

ColonelONeill is correct.
The Yoga 2 Pro does not have a digitizer, so a capacitative stylus, which mimics a fingertip, is what you'd need.
Regards.

I am not a Lenovo employee.

I have formatted my SSD and hard drive.... I am running a clean install from disk of 8.1 pro. I cannot determine if it is a compatibility

issue or hardware issue. I had run a memory test and scan disk for bad sectors from the bios. As administrator, I enabled automount in diskpart to allow windows to assign a drive name.
From the bios, I can see both drives and only the ssd. I have not pinpointed when the harddisk is unmounted. It is formatted as NTFS. I can hear it unmount either during boot or upon waking from sleep mode. The bios sees no bad sectors nor does windows.
However, when I had the intel compatibility software installed, my hard drive never mounted. I did a restart and inorder for windows to see my hard drive. I disabled the intel software for the 4th gen i7 processor. This problem is happening less often. I do
not think I have solved the problem. Intel or Windows... I think a bit of both.
If there is a software patch, please guide me to it. I am in school and use my laptop ALL the time. I believe it is a compatibility issue. I have attached this from searching intel's site for downloads and windows is up to date.
I am quite concerned because I can hear my harddrive unmount. It is labeled as healthy NTFS partition. I have checked for hidden volumes and done everything I know to do to check the integrity of the hardware as administrator. I have searched microsofts
libraries and forums and have done everything I can find as suggestions.
I have checked for malware, viruses, etc. My only clue this is going to happen is the hard disk spins up and I hear the fan, then I hear it unmount the drive. Of course, after unmounted there are other issues which I have ruled out as the cause of the problem.
Basically, I am experiencing a lack of swap space after my hard drive unmounts.
Any suggestions, are welcome! I would really like to know if this is a known windows issue. I should not have to disable intel's processor software. I paid for the features of the i7 and would like to utilise the processor.

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

Need to get photos and music from iphone to new macbook pro

I gave my old macbook pro to my daughter and bought a new one. However, i need to find out how to get my music, photos, etc from my iphone onto my new computer. When I try to sync i get the message my iphone contents will be erased and replaced with computer's content. Help!

Photos can be offloaded to any computer. If a computer does not have iTunes installed, it treats the iPhone as a camera and gives an option to save the photos.
Anyway, photo's aren't synced are they. They are always stored on the iPhone and never a part of a backup.

Audio streaming from phone to yoga 2 pro via bluetooth issue

Hi everyone,
I have got a Yoga pro 2 recently and the problem I'm having is that I;m unable to stream audio from my Nexus 5 phone to the pc through bluetooth. The device and the pc paired normally during setup. Though I find it odd that when I turn off bluetooth connectivity on the phone and turn it back on, the pc does not automatically connect so I have to unpair or remove and redo a new find and pair for the two. Ok, now the problem is after the connection is set nothing happens and there is no way to stream the audio to the yoga pc running windows 8.1. On my other pc, a Sony Vaio, also running win 8.1 pro (upgraded from win 8 pro) , once the phone and the Sony are paired via bluetooth, a windows pops out to immediately play the audio. I have check all the bluetooth drivers and they are up to date, and I even downloaded bluetooth drivers from lenovo support but no change. What's missing? Why can I not stream audio via BT? Why nothing happens when connected?

Bluetooth tethering is sharing your phone's internet connection with the computer, that's why there is an extra charge. This is not what you want. I would go into the bluetooth settings of both your phone and computer to make sure you are not missing something. Also, an easier solution (bluetooth is unbearably slow for file transfer) may be to look into the app called AirDroid. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zYW5kLmFpcmRyb2lkIl0.

Hi Janice,
What version of Mac OS are you using?
Adobe does not recommend migrating the software from one disk to the other.
Please run the setup file for Acrobat and reinstall the software. You might want to delete the existing version of Acrobat installed before reinstalling it.

at least that the operator has confirmed to me that he called me. I also have problems with either the start of the mac with the power off. I can not understand if it crashes or is just very very slow.
Finally, I have a problem with the external hard disck. I often said to have been ejected incorrectly (not true) and I start to restore the startup recovery disk because disk utility is ineffective from the normal operating system .. is a shocking thing, but how you reduced. in four years it had never happened. seem to have windows or worse. Wake up.
I am an Italian, alas, and then I would like an answer to my language because my € are the same as German French or English.

You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''

I need to reinstall photoshop 2004 from disk to my new windows 8 or 8.1

My laptop crashed. I need to reinstall photoshop 2004 from disk to my new windows 8 or 8.1 (can't remember which it is), but my laptop freezes every time I insert the disk. Can anyone help?

If you will tell me what 2004 means. Photoshop CS or version 8 came out around that time and since activation has been terminated for that version, you are entitled to the CS2 replacement:

Do I need to unistall CS5 prior to installing CS6 from disk. Thanks

Any Adobe Desktop applications don't overwrite the older version while installation. They install in seperate folders. You can Install and use CS5 and CS6 on the same computer, even simultaneously.

Need to re-install CS5.5 on my new hard drive. Serial number from disk package not working.

I need to re-install CS5.5 on my new hard drive. Serial number from disk package not working.

if there's a problem with the number of installations, you'll see a message about an excess activation problem.
if that's what you're seeing, contact adobe support for an activation count reset, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html
otherwise, attach a screenshot of the error message or quote it.

Can i create a disk image of my Imac 27 triple boot from disk utility: lion 10.8.3, win 7 and snow 10.6.8

I have created a well working triple boot system on my Imac 27, I7, 16GB, 3.4.Triple boot: Lion 10.8.3, Snow leopard 10.6.8 and windows 7.
They all work great. I would like to find the simplest way to make a image or a backup of the entire system.
I am thinking of creating a new image from disk utility image option.This from the main 2 To hitachi disk. The image option at the top should create a global image of the entire triple boot. I am not shure if this is possible. The differential/incremental option is not necesary. I can deal with that.
But, In case the disk utility option will not work, which software would aloud diferential/incremental backup for each partition
A software solution that would babkup all my partitions.
A single all in one image would be great but is that possible?
Any suggestion: please d'ont talk about vm solution or other subject like that. I am looking for a backup solution for my tripleboot...
Thanks

There are a few problems here, first Mountian Lion won't install on a 2006 MacBook, it diesn't meet the minimum specifications. http://support.apple.com/kb/SP654
Secondly you shouldn't install something purchased under one apple id onto another persons computer.

I need help installing photoshop elements from disk.

I can't see a button on the chat page, to get help. Java script is enabled on my Mac. what can I do?

What exactly is the problem?
You could download the 30 day free trial using the link below - It‘s the full product. If you get it successfully installed simply enter the serial number from the DVD box into the trial and it becomes yours to keep. No further installation is required from disk.
Uninstall first, then download.

I want to clone an internal windows disk to a larger disk in my G5 Pro. Would I have to do it from the Windows side and what software is needed?

I want to clone an internal windows 7 disk to a larger disk in my G5 Pro (2009) 2.93. Would I have to do it from the Windows side or can I do it from the mac side, and what software works for cloning if anyone knows.

We don't mix names G5 (IBM, PowerMac) and Mac Pro (Intel)
Depends what you actually are doing.
Do both Mac and Windows reside on same or separate drives?
For running a Mac utility, then WinClone 4 $39
Review was on http://www.macwindows.com two weeks ago
For Windows on its own drive and disk to disk, then Paragon HDM 12 is best.
You should visit Paragon, for imaging and cloning Windows as well as HFS+ drivers.

Your XP CD should be fine.
This will allow you to "build" a bootable device to start your computer with a "windows like" interface.
At that point, the purpose is not to install anything but to allow you to check if you disk is in a good shape (mostly partition table) and, if so, give you access to your files and back them up!
Regarding your vista installation, there is no chance you have an original vistal installation disk as the only option is to create recovery disks for that purpose as soon as you can...
About installing XP on your machine, that might be tricky as some drivers are not included in the XP boot sequence on the CD specially SATA drivers (at that time, most disk where IDE not SATA...) and your HDD might just be invisible to the installer.
If you really want to install XP instead of vista (smart move in my opinion) you may need to build a customized XP installation disk including SATA drivers.
