New S10-3T . . bad broadcom . . .now returned. New one coming. Maybe a fluke?

For those that are intereested or that have ordered from  them recently. I recevied the S10-3T with the 8 cell battery, 1gb mem, and n450 pineview. From the get go in quick start wifi and wimax were not highlighted when asked for network set-up but only wired and dsl icons. I skippe the quick start and went right to the Windows 7 starter an could pick up the 4-5 connections in my neighborhood, mine being the strongest of course.
I have dsl with a Westell 327w that works wirelessly and wired with my custom desktop.
After multiple attempts and a loooong phone call x3 to lenovo I am getting anew one through Circuit City. To be short the card picks up the connections in the newtwork page but cannot connect to any network.
Uninstall Broadcom drivers, reinstall broadcom drivers through usb, perform one key recovery, and the same thing. It's obviously a bad card as it picks up action but can't connect to any network in the neighborhood. Hopefully through the same distributor with the same batch I won't experience the same problem.
BTW it's nice to be here.

I have been trying to resolve the issue of suspend failing to resume on me Lenovo s10-3 (not the touch screen) for what seems an aeon.
A profound thank you to you all.
hpet=disable highres=off nohz=off
Works!
I now have no indication lights showing when the machine is suspended? But finally I can close the lid and reopen to resume - fantastic, this machine may finally see some more use.
I am running Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) running Gnome 3 with 3 series kernels (presently liquorix 3.4.0-4.dmz.1-liquorix-686)

  • How do you reset the Apple ID to a new one for the automatic updates download tool?  It defaults to my old Apple ID, even though I have changed the Apple ID to the new one everywhere I can find.

    I have an original Apple ID from my personal iPhone and iPad.  I bought a MacBook Pro for business and the Apple Store clerk told me to use the old Apple ID to make setup faster and that I could change to a new one later.   So... I did all that and changed the Apple ID everywhere I can find a place to do so.  And everything seems okay, except the Automatic Updates download tool defaults back to my original Apple ID.  That old Apple ID is grayed out in the login, so I cannot seem to change it to download and update under my new, business-related Apple ID for my MacBook Pro.  What to do?

    Yes, absolutely, you can still use the old ID to update, etc., but I understood the OP to want to simply discard the old one and use only the new one. Maybe I misunderstood...
    And, actually just now re-reading the first post, it could be that the ID had only been associated with the iDevices, so if he established a new ID and associated that with the new MBP, I frankly have no idea if he can still use the old ID on that machine (based on him saying that the old ID is greyed out) - have not come up with this type of situation before.

  • I changed my email on my apple id to the new one, i update the ios8 on 5s and there's an old id that I can't remove it, I can't restore, too. Please help me.

    I changed an email on my apple ID to the new one. I upgraded my 5s to ios8, it required the password on the old email that I can't reach it. I tried to restore but I can't. In conclusion, I changed an email to the new one but it still the old on the updated 5s and I filled down the password and it said "incorrect ID or password" so I can't change it into the new one. How should I do? Thank you so much.

    Hi bpaul1877,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You have a few options available if you have moved to a different country.
    You can add your new email address as an alternate "rescue" email, or change your Apple ID to the new email address. I recommend following the steps in these articles if you make either change:

    You don't. Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them. Instead of creating a new ID, change the primary email address on your existing ID.

  • I have had bad luck lately I lost my computer to water cant be fixed and now my IPOD has been stolen when I get a new one how can I get my I tunes,games on the new one without my computer or old I pod

    I have had bad luck with electronics lately my computer got lost to water and cant be fixed now my Ipod has been stolen I reported it to Apple but now I need to know when I get a new one how can I get back my music and games etc. if I can get it just with my account

    What kind of iPod are you getting to replace it? If it is an iPod Touch, and you are in the US, after you set up the Touch you can use the iCloud beta and download your previous music, books and app purchases directly to your Touch.

  • My computer's hardrive went bad an I had to get a new one. Now my computer has nothing on it and I had to reinstall itunes and i have no music or anything. So now I cannot sync my ipod or anything. Is there anything i can do to get all of my stuff back?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    After you have installed the OSX on the new HDD in your MBP, install the old HDD in an enclosure and connect it to your MBP via USB.  Then try to drag and drop  your data to the new HDD. 
    If this proves unsuccessful, you may look for data recovery software on the Internet.  There will be free trails to see if it will work or not.  If the trial suggests that it will work, then you will have to purchase the software.
    The last resort is a professional data recovery service that will offer NO guarantees and charge a lot of money.
    As you now can appreciate, backups eliminate such predicaments.
    Ciao.

  • Juat after Christmas I purchased 2 USB wall chargers for my Iphone 5c. 2 weeks later 1 of the wall chargers was dead. Returned it, received new one. Now it has died and so has the 2nd one. (3 wall chargers in 2 months)  suggesions ?

    I suggest you call your power company and ask them to monitor your circuit for spikes. Your other appliances are at risk also. I've been using the same Apple USB adapters for 7 years.

  • HT5621 I recently changed my apple id email from an old one to a new one and now I can't sign out of my old one on my iPhone 5 because it says I need a password. I cannot give that password because it is part of the old apple ID. How do I change IDs?

    Hi sharonpalencia, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand it can be very frustrating when you cannot sign in, or sign out in this case, to your Apple ID. In this situation you may need to temporarily edit your Apple ID back to the original email address so that you can sign out. Once signed out, edit the Apple ID back to the new email address and sign in. Please use the attached article for further information. 
    If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    If you're still asked for your previous Apple ID password, continue to the next step.
    Have a great day, 
    Joe

    I bought a brand new Mac 27" desktop that came loaded with Adobe CS6. Everything worked like a charm until the hard drive, 1Tb, developed a bad sector and the Apple Store reinstalled a new one as I had extended warranty with them. They recycled the drive immediately (like a fool I didn't ask for it back to get the data off it.) But luckily I have all my data on CrashPlan. I downloaded it and it worked great except I downloaded it to the desktop and not the original location so it got squirrely. I also have an external 1.5Tb drive that I wanted to make bootable so I installed Mavericks 10.9.3 . I then went ahead and installed it on the newly installed drive too.
    I think that because I have a new drive Adobe thinks I have a news computer. I bought the 27" Mac brand new from Ebay and it came loaded with software, including CS6. I have a serial number for CS6 but Adobe said it wasn't valid. (I have owned CS2, CS4 and now CS6 which came preloaded onto the Mac by the seller who told me that the software was registered to the Mac???
    I am going to re-download the backup but this time to the original location (I still don't think it will work with Adobe. What can I do about this?
    iMac 27-inch, Late 2012

    You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.

  • Upon activating my Siri button, I get an unbearable screeching sound.  I already turned in my old ipad under warranty for a new one because of this same problem.  Now the newest one is doing the same thing.  Anyone else out there experiencing this?

    I'm wondering whether or not to get yet another warranty exchange for my ipad 3 over this horrible screeching sound associated with the home button.  I was told at the Apple Store by the technician that he had never heard of this problem before and they gave me a new one.  Now a few weeks later the new one is doing the same thing.  Anyone else having this problem?

    Try going to Settings > General > Siri and turn off Siri.  Now try to activate Siri with the home button and you should get the voice command system (similar to Siri).  Does it screech?
    Next, go back and turn on Siri.  Then back up your iPad to iTunes or iCloud.
    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.  Does Siri still screech?
    Lastly, Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings.  When the Set up screens show up, choose 'Set up as new..." and skip everything you want to.  Test Siri again and see if it screeches.
    If it does not screech when set up as new, then you may have something corrupt going on in your backup.  You can restore form your backup and see if the issue returns.  If it does, then go back and set it up as new again and maually set up your accounts and apps again.
    If the issue continues even when set up as new, go back to the Apple Store.

  • I traded my iphone in and now have a new one (iPhone 5) with the same SIM.  Since, I have had some iMessages meant for someone else and some strange things happening on my phone (applications opening by themselves, calls disappearing from log). Any ideas?

    I traded my iphone in and now have a new one (iPhone 5) with the same SIM.  Since, I have had some iMessages meant for someone else and some strange things happening on my phone (applications opening by themselves, calls disappearing from log). Any ideas?

    The answer is very simple: You were not the original owner of the phone. Target sold you a phone that had been returned. You can verify the date of the original sale here: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage. I suspect you will find that the warranty expiration date is not one year from the date that you bought it.
