Newbie x230t user with Touchpad questions

Hello, I have an x230t that has been very hard to use because of the LACK OF SENSITIVITY of the
touchpad. I have to bang the heck of out it to get it to click on an item. I called the tech line and they said there is no way to adjust the sensitivity. Does anyone any work arounds? Thanks

For number 1, check out this link on connecting to Exchange Online: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj984289(v=exchg.150).aspx
Number 2, I don't quite follow what you're asking. The commands didn't show where? Do you mean the auto-complete suggestions? The command window? Do any commands "show" or none at all?
The answer to your third question depends entirely on what you're trying to do. Specific tasks are going to be better suited to different tools (ie: Are they unattended/automated?).

Potential new T61 user with some questions about product/support/etc.

Hi all!
I've been using Dell Latitude's for last 7+ years and been happy with them thus far, as I was able to stay within the C-series thru 3 systems and reuse some components such as batteries, CD-ROM, etc. but now that I'd have to go to D-series, that gives me the choice of going to new vendor...and IBM/Lenovo was the only other choice due to my OS requirement: XP Pro!
So now I'm here asking some questions that I'm still having issues with:
(I'm comparing the T61 to Dell D530 and/or my C610)
1) Features that I've used on existing Dell that I don't see on T61 :
    a) Infared port --- I've used to transfer stuff from one sys to another
    b) S-Video out --- I've used to display on TV for some situations
    c) Serial port --- can't recall using it but with my luck, I'd need it sometime.
    d) Parallel port (C610) --- for my really old printer used on rare occasions
    e) Floppy drive --- yes, I still use it for some unusual situations
2) On Dell, I can put a 2nd battery or floppy drive in the media bay instead of CD/DVD...what about T61?
3) Support:
    a) Dell forums have 7+ yrs of history and are well used...this forum seems brand new...was there another one before it?
    b) My Dell's have lifetime tech support (ok, so sometimes understanding the folks from India can be an issue) but IBM seems to limit this to life of warranty.
4) Pricing: T61 would be seem to be, at minimum, about $150 more than similar Dell even with current "sales"...I'm having trouble justifying this...
5) Things that I see that T61 has that new Dell D530 doesn't:
   a) built-in mike --- my current Dell has it and I use it now and then so this is a plus!
   b) keyboard light --- nice feature, but couldn't I use a USB one instead if I really needed it?
   c) fingerprint reader --- never used one...how often do people use it?
   d) 2nd card slot for Express cards --- current Dell has two standard slots and I'm using both, though one is wi-fi which C610 didn't have built-in...and other is modem to replace failed built-in...D530 has only one slot, so having 2nd of any type is good.
   e) middle mouse button --- is that what I'm seeing? Or is it something else?
   f) recovery partition --- ok, nice but how much room does it take?
6) Things that D530 has that T61 doesn't:
   a) 4th USB --- I'm used to only 1 now so even 3 would be big step up...
   b) 15" standard screen --- T61 is only a 14.1" screen and that extra bit of size would likely help, but I'm limited on physical dimensions to 13.5" total width (unusual situation) so a 15.4" wide screen isn't possible...I'm looking at SXGA+ in either case to maximize usage.
   c) recovery CD is standard --- so I'm presuming I'd have to create my own here?
That, I think, about does it...so...any users willing to help me decide if a switch is good for me?
Thanks!!!
Update: It seems that phone tech support is only available for warranty period with IBM, whereas with Dell, I can still call for hardware tech help (to diagnose problem at least) for "lifetime" or well past paid period, as I've already done in past...comments?
Update #2: Changed the incorrect "R"s to "T"! Duh!

A current Dell Latitute user who was looking to maybe switch...But didn't.

I finally made the switch to Lenovo and the Thinkpad line of notebooks and think this was the best move I have ever made in years! I've spent far too much money maintaining a separate notebook (Dell Latitude L400) several custom built desktops. This December, I sold my desktops, my laptops (I had 2 L400's), and my 20" Aquous LCD TV to finance my Thinkpad T61. It was well worth it! I will try to answer your questions in this checklist, which I found to be quite similar to my own .... frighteningly exactly like my own....:
Hardware Requirements
IR: This is pretty outdated but functional. I used to use a Palm with IR as well as an IR laser printer. I ditched both for a PDA phone with bluetooth. The laser printer is networked now
S-Video: You might be able to get away with a TV tuner cardbus or a expres card. There might also be external converters that convert from your VGA/DVI (DVI via port replicator) into any variety of video outputs.
Serial: My older Palm had a serial port for the docking station - bluetooth is a good replacement
Parallel port: I currently have a USB to parallel adapter in my bag just in case. These are cheap cables and work well.
Floppy: I keep a USB one of these just in case. I find that having fewer input devices on my laptop and leaving them external help keep the machine lighter for my mostly mobile usage (e.g., my L400 with no inputs at all except 1 USB port).
T61 Spare Battery: Uses ultrabay battery - I rarely use the DVDRW drive and leave the ultrabay battery in there while on the go. DVDRW drive stays in the bag until needed. I recommend you upgrade to the 9 cell battery with the advanced ultra bay battery, which will give u something like 9 to 12 hours of operating life. If you are not a fan of the battery pack sticking out like crazy, stick to the letter box format laptop (not widescreen), which will provide the minimum amount of battery pack stick-out with the 9 cell battery. The 6 cell will not stick out with the letterbox laptop but will stick out with the widescreen version.
Support Options: I rarely call support so I have no opinion here.
Pricing: Price was not really a concern for me. I purchased mine for the business look mainly, which Lenovo maintained well. I don't like the shiny/plastic/toy look of Dell and Apple computers these days. If anything, consider the premium an investment in the build quality of these machines (or a premium just for the good looks). I particularly like the roll cage as well as active protection system that stops the hard drive as soon as the system detects excessive motion.
Included Hardware Comparison:
I like the mic, use it often for Skype and the built in 1.3MP webcam as well.
Keyboard light.... kinda cute but not as functional because it simply is too small. It was a cute idea that could have been made better had Lenovo opted for a backlit keyboard instead. That would have been more functional and added to the "cool" factor.
With regards to the Express Card and PCMCIA card slot, I rarely use either because everything is built in. However, if you want that TV tuner, an express card or PCMCIA card slot is good. If you opt for the built in media reader, you will be unable to use the express card as the media reader takes up that slot (I might be wrong, but I think the card reader is large enough that it takes up both slots, so u can't add anything anyway - but you should call pre-sales to answer that question).
Middle mouse button: The three buttons in the middle are used for the trackpoint/joystick mouse controller. I think the middle button is configurable to do various things. I personally hate the joystick and can only use the touchpad. The lack of a touchpad was the only reason I did not stick to the smaller 12.1" X line of laptops, which was really more in tune with my size requirements (too used to using the L400 sized machine).
Recovery Partition: This is a cheap way for manufacturers to make it easy for people to recover their systems in case of crash - without the need for any documentation or disc media. However, it makes it hard for people like me who only use machines after a clean format and customized install of Windows. This partition is about 10GB and can be erased with special disk format or partition tools. Windows itself cannot read or delete this partition. With the minimum size of the hard drives available, this should not be an excessive space killer for most people. I personally need only 7GB total for OS and apps. The remaining data I work with is actually streamed from a 500GB gigabit NAS. I might switch to a 32GB solid state disk one of these days when their performance comes more in par or exceeds traditional drives.
Recovery CD: You can create your own from the recovery partition since Lenovo does not provide any.
4th USB: I only use 1 or 2 as well. 1 for an external micro mouse (I love my touchpad, but it's just hard to use with Photoshop or CAD apps) and a second for a USB memory key. My other devices i.e., scanner, external mouse, keyboard, are plugged in on my desktop through a USB hub that goes to a single port on my docking station. So yes, your docking station will probably remove the need for more than 2 ports. Although, I do find it odd there are only 3 ports... such an odd number.
Screen Size: I personally wish I could have gotten the X series of laptops but the 14.1 was the only other mobile solution. For the larger screen size, docking station to my 24" Dell 2405FP. The compact nature of the T series makes it pretty thin and compact though... it was not too much bigger than my L400 - at least, not uncomfortably bigger.
But yeah, I think if you make the switch, you'll be getting yourself a solid machine that will keep u going for years. The Latitude line of Dell's were really good, but overall, I feel that the nature of Dell's manufacturing process is making it too "cookie cutter" and reducing its overall quality level. Their earlier lines were awesome, like the D lines you mentioned. But unless you get the ATG line, you just won't get the same level of quality they used to offer (in addition, the ATG line is wickedly too expensive - I'd rather get a Durabook for military grade spec at a fraction of the price).
Anyway, have fun shopping! :-)

New user with several questions on forms and useage.

Once a user fills out a form, is there a way to make the data in the text fields un-editable?
While I'm here, on the same form there are several fields that are required to be filled out. Is it possible to prevent the user from being able to save the form before they fill out the required fields?
I have an Excel file that when opened asks the user for certain data and automatically puts the entered data into the required cells using VB. Is it possible to do the same in Adobe?
Been using Acrobat for years, but my company only uses it for simple pdf creation and maybe putting stamps on customer supplied files, so these probably seem like simple questions.
By the way this is on Acrobat 8 Pro.
Thanks for any help!

Once a user fills out a form, is there a way to make the data in the text fields un-editable?
Yes. The best is by using a digital signature. Second best is by using a script to set the fields as read-only at some point.
Is it possible to prevent the user from being able to save the form before they fill out the required fields?
No. You can set fields as required but that only applies when the file is submitted. You can display an error message when the file is being saved if some of the required scripts are not filled-in (using a script), but you can't prevent someone from saving the file.
I have an Excel file that when opened asks the user for certain data and automatically puts the entered data into the required cells using VB. Is it possible to do the same in Adobe?
Yes, that's possible. Again, using a script.
By the way this is on Acrobat 8 Pro.
This is quite an old version, not compatible with any current operating system. You should consider upgrading...

New IPOD user with a question

Hi, I'm a new IPod/ITunes user, and I have a question that I can't find an answer to on any of the Help categories, so I thought I'd try here. Hope you all can help me out.
I love most pop, rock, and country music genres and sub-genres, but I'm also one of those mixed-up souls that love classical music as well (and gosh am I glad of it). But I don't want to mix my classical music in with "all other" on the same IPod. There's a number of reasons for this that I don't need to go into, but that presents my question.
I would like to have two IPods, one for classical and one for "all other". Can I have two different IPods on the same ITunes account so that I can connect and sync one type of music to one of them, and then connect and sync the other type of music to the second one? If not, then what are my options?
I hope this isn't a seriously dumb question, but I have no idea what I'm doing with this stuff, so I'm begging indulgence, and hoping some of you out there can help me out.
Thanks so much!

I use method two from How to use multiple iPods with one computer with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which iPods should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's four iPods using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

New Mac user with some questions!

Hello everyone, I fairly new to mac! (I came from the Dark Side....PC)And here is how this happen. I was searching a local web page of people that sell used computer and searched for a couple of days when I came across a G5 1.6 being sold for parts (DEAD G5 No Power issue), everything was in it but the HD. I thought I would pick it up for the $150.00 the seller was asking thinking I could possible purchase parts to fix it! LOL well that was a BIG heck no!! Well remember I have $150.00 in this already. Well after seeing all the problems everyone was having with the G5's and the dreaded no power "DEAD G5" threads every where I was getting a little worried if I wasted the money on a doorstop. I talked to a few people and look around on the net again to see how much used "working" G5 1.6 were going for, I saw a few that were inflated in price and saw some that were fair in price.
So with the research I did (and still a little worried if I did the right ting) I took the G5 to the apple store and had them look at it. They told me it could be the Logic board, CPU, and or PSU and was given a paper with the parts and labor as a est. $1083.00 was the price for the above parts to be replaced, I felt like I was being robbed. But I told them to look at it and call me with the issues before any work was done!
Ok as of right now I have $150.00 in it already plus the $100.00 Diag fee. No biggie at least the case is worth $250.00 for a PC case!(LOL) Just joking guys!!
The next day the local Apple store called me and told me it was the logic board, and when they get the new board in they would be able to test the CPU. So I told them to replace the Logic board.... Later that day the call came in saying the CPU and PSU were good and they installed Tiger on it for me for free. So far at the 1st visit to the apple store when I dropped off the G5 I was like dang I'm not enjoying this, but now afer a logic board replacement and level 2 tech it came to $535.00.
So
$150.00 (Purcased from seller)
$ 60.00 (160gb SATA HD)
$535.00 (Logic board & Level 2 Labor)
$745.00 total cost
Now here is the question!
Was it a smart thing to get the logic board replaced?
Will this G5 1.6 handle Final Cut Pro for 1080i footage captured with a Sony HDV-fx7?
Be Honest with me, I want to know if I was a goof ball or not!!
Thanks for you help

Hi MikePerry-
In accounting terms, your expense to repair the machine is considered "sunk cost." Even if you got totally hosed (and you did not) what's done is done.
You can check eBay for comparable setups.
This setup will be able to handle the stated editing needs.
I don't know you well enough to fairly establish any goofball factor

Soon to be iMac user with important question on External HD I used for PC

So I will be buying an iMac in a week or so when I get my federal return. I have been a PC user all my life. I have 3 external hard drives which are a few years old and are still working fine. Can I hook up my external hard drives to the mac and work on my photos with out any problems or would I need to reformat?
If I reformat then I'm screwed cause then I would lose years of work. I do have a mozy account with all my stuff backed up too but its for a PC. I talked with their customer support and they said if I switch my account over to the imac I would need to start over again.
Is there any software you can recommend where I wont lose my work? I will also be buying either a 1tb or 2tb hard drive and I want to transfer my files over to that and retire my other hard drives.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi justins25
It depends on how the External Drives are formatted, but either way you should have no problems moving your data to the iMac. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2518
Both platforms can read and write to MS-DOS FAT32 and you should be fine for moving music, photos, doc's and movies under 4GB either way.
The iMac can read files on a Windozs NTFS formatted drive, but can not write to it.

Newbie Mac user with iTunes problems

I recently bought a Mac. I'm attempting to import CDs into my iTunes, but when the CD is finished importing, the songs aren't in my iTunes. How can I remedy this?

Whilst browsing through the other questions...I found a solution that whilst seemingly unlikely...worked for me.
The full description can be found here:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/13124170#13124170
Quick summary:
Under parental controls, disable the app store option but enable the iTunes U option. Click okay. Wait for iTunes to load iTunes U. Once that's done, go back to parental controls and enable the app store option and voila! problem solved. Strange but true. =)

New Macbook Pro user with battery questions.

I just recently picked up a Macbook Pro and have been reading up on how to take care of the battery. I pretty much know everything I need to know to prolong it's life, but there's one question I can't find the answer to:
Once I plug it in to charge regardless of the % it's in (20%, 50%, 70%, etc), do I need to keep it plugged in until it's fully charged, or can I remove it at anytime? Say I don't have enough time to wait for it to fully charge and have to unplug it when it's only at 86%, will that damage the battery in any way?

See the Table in this link, the section Do I need to apply a full charge? answers your question. Your battery is Lithium ion.

New user with a question..plz help

I have a MSI ms-6390 and i can not figure out on how to use my Vipper V770 agp card to work..i am curertly using the on board video..i went to bios and disabled the vga share memory size and when i restart it..both my onboard and my agp video card do not work..please help

I'd look further into your BIOS settings.
I am not familiar with that BIOs so I'm speculating. There is no need to disable the Memory share for starters.
It sould disable it automatically..I could be wrong here.
There should be a setting that will allow you to choose initialization settings. Something like "Integrated Peripherals" Under that setting there should be a setting "Init Display First"
AGP should be selected. You may have to play with these settings...That is if you can see your BIOS sisnce you claim that now both don't work.
Also try reseating Your Memory, you may have jostled it loose while you were in the case.

I am a Tiger user, with a question about Leopard's smart folders!

Hello!
I starting toying with smart folders under Tiger. It is my understanding that smart folders under Leopard have some different/improved features.
What I was wondering is, is there a way to EXCLUDE a certain string of alpha-numerics as a refining search parameter? I am looking to better sift through Logic Pro projects and it would be amazing if I could weed out any project that had ".0" in the project name (to weed out the backup projects while still finding showing the core Logic projects).
It would be very helpful to know if this is possible before I finally make the plunge into Leopard. Also, knowing might dictate how I am overhauling the organization of my files right now, at this time. Thanks!

wow that is weird. Because I know that in tiger, you can check box as many folders as you like to be included in the search. In leopard, i guess they want you to have one smart folder for every folder you want to search the contents of?
Hopefully, people can get around that by just consolidating some of the folders (putting folders within folders) that they wanted to search through one smart folder.
But anyway, that is great news about the option to EXCLUDE! Tiger's is definitely missing that. I searched for Name Extensions that are ".logic", but that also gets me tons and tons of project backups. Those backups all have a number, such as ".01" or ".02" interjected before the ".logic" extension. Excluding ".0" would hopefully not include a file such as this one "mysong.01.logic"
Thanks for your help! I will look forward to this working in Leopard!

Newbe with a question

First, I would like to say Hello to all of the other forummers, as being a newbe.
And as a newbe, I offcourse have a question....
Will the new AMD 333fsb series processors run on my KT3 mainboard, after obviously flashing the bios?
Thanks in advance, David.
Config: MSI kt3 ultra, xp1800, geforce 2ti, 512mb apacer ddr2700, 7200rpm maxtor and chello cable connection.

I heard somewhere that the chipset will support it but I don't know if MSI will work to get this board to support it.

Branching with random questions

Captivate newbie here...
I am trying to create a Jeopardy-style quiz in Captivate 3
using random questions which are contained in separate pools for
each question category. The game board is on slide 2 and it has 20
transparent buttons with "jump to slide" actions, each of which
points to a random question slide. The random questions slides have
a Submit button and a Back button, which I intend to cause a
backward jump to the game board. The branching tree view shows one
navigation arrow (black) from slide 2 to each question slide, and
each question slide shows "Jump to slide 2" actions for both
success and failure.
I had hoped that the jump back to the gameboard would be
automatic after the user answers the question, but it isn't. The
Back button on each slide must be used to get back to the
gameboard, but sometimes it takes the user back to previous slides,
with their already-answered questions, and the user must hit the
back button many times to get back to the gameboard.
I used the downloadable sample Jeopardy game from this site
as inspiration, but it's not really a quiz. In it, the user does
not enter an answer; instead, the answer is presented via a
rollover.
So I guess the question is, can you use navigation with
random question slides?

Hi ImagineerBill and welcome to our community
As you have seen, Captivate isn't too keen on allowing
Question slides to be presented in any order. I know this probably
sounds contrary to how random question slides work. But please hear
me out.
Captivate normally moves from slide to slide in a linear
manner. This introduces a problem if you desire to branch backward
in a quiz.
The answer to your actual question of "Can you branch from
Random Questions" is that you can. But you need to consider how the
branching will work and how it may affect scoring.
We see a similar issue erupt when you wish to have a common
slide with many links that may be launched. Often, the person is
desiring that as the original slide is returned to, the visited
slide is somehow marked as having been visited. And as you have
seen, this is exactly how the Jeopardy style game works. It works
by exploiting a bug/feature/callit what you want with Captivate.
This is the feature of a slide retaining the moused over state when
you have a rollover on it that is combined with a Click Box object.
Because the slide is presenting the rollover as if you were still
mousing over it, it indicates the destination has been visited.
To be honest, I'm not sure a solution exists for what you are
seeking. Unless you might construct the random slides as a series
that must be answered in a specific order, but presenting random
questions until you exhaust the pool.
Cheers... Rick

OIM 11g - automatically provision a user with AD

Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie with OIM and to begin, I would like to provision a user with my AD directly after we create him on OIM. So I created an Access Policy for the resource AD User with the correct Ad Server and the correct Organization and I affect it for All Users. When I create a new user and I give some additional informations like the address, phone number, email for example, this user is well provisioned on my AD but the only informations which are provisioned are his login, his first name, his last name and none of the others.
I don't understand why. Do I have to set up an adaptater for this ? I've also checked Auto Save and Auto Pre-populate in the Process Definition but I don't know if it's the right thing to do.
If you can help me with this. (I know this is a really "newbie" question but it'll help me a lot to understand OIM basics functionalities)
Thanks a lot !
Thibault

I don't think that Oracle has used any kind of Java Code for this. You can simply create Logical task to achieve the same.
Anyways AD Connector comes with two jar files and you can get thsoe JARs from Connector Pack itself or from Database.
Go through Design Console guide for details.
And also for your use case follow steps:
Go to Form Design
Search UD_ADUSER
Create New Version
Save
Go to Prepopulate Tab
Click Add
Select your attribute
Adapter as ADCS Populate First Name, Rule as Default, Order as integer value say 7
Save
Do mapping of variable with User Definition > Field Name
