Power Manager 2.41a not working

Hi,
Can anyone reproduce or solve this problem:
After Install of the Power Manager 2.41a on VistaX64 the power manager doesn't start anymore. More precisely it doesn't start after i removed the battery and plugged display in the taskbar. When I try to start it from the productivity center or from the programs folder it just displays the title window and then disappears.
After completely reinstalling the Manager the same happened.
Any Ideas how I can get it to work are welcome...

i had the same exact problem has your with the power manager 2.41a, it would show the title but does not load all the way it would just disappear, so i downloaded the power manager 2.42 from lenovo site, installed the driver, and it would still do the same thing but title does not say it is 2.42 it say 2.41a, does not load.  So this is what i did to make it work:
1. uninstall power manager 2.41a and power manager driver managment from control panel.
 2. install power manager 2.42 driver from lenovo site, if they ask if overwrite say yes to all.
3. now go in the c: drive and under utilites search for power manager and reinstall it. restart comp. and it should load find now, but some time power manager is slow to load but it will load.
hope this help.

  • Power Manager 4.42 Not Working T61p Vista 64-bit

    ThinkVantage Power Manager is not working on my machine.  I first noticed this after System Update added several new ThinkVantage programs, including PM version 4.41a several weeks ago, but I can't point with any certainty a specific cause or beginning to the problem. 
    PM now stops working every time during initial (power-on) machine boot-up showing message: "Power Manager Stopped Working".  This seems to happen whenver it is installed by system update.  When I have tried installing PM manually, it simply refuses to install, giving a short message saying it cannot run on my system.  Earlier versions ran OK before.  Microsoft Problem Reports and Solutions is of course clueless about this (and most other crashes).
    I have tried uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling both PM and the latest PM driver in several different sequences, but nothing seems to work.  I was hopeful that a recent upgrade to PM version 4.42 (via System Update) might solve the problem, but same thing happens and manually installation still doesn't work.  I also uninstalling Access Connections (which has given me other problems), rebooted, and tried loading both PM and PM Driver, but with the same results.  Something funny going on...
    I have ThinkPad 61p (6459-CTO) with 4GB RAM, running Vista Ultimate 64-bit with NIS 2009.  I have installed the most recent BIOS and have other up-to-date Lenovo software via System Update. 
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I have tried several more things, including upgrading to Visual C++ 2008 in an attempt to get my system to install TV Power Manager 4.42 (or earlier versions).  I still get the same message when I attempt to install manually: "cannot run on this system". Same thing happens when trying to load an older version 4.20a that I found through the forum.
    I have been successful in loading the version that came pre-installed on my computer (found in SWTools folder), and that seems to work, though with very basic functionality.  It appears to be Version 2.11.
    I would really like to find a way to install a newer version (preferably 4.42), as it seems this is needed to run later versions of other TV software.  I have T61p (6459-CTO) running Vista Ultimate 64-bit, and the BIOS and drivers are all up to date, as per Lenovo site.
    Thanks for any advice.

  • HT2188 iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work.

    Hi
    My iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work so I have tried to restore it from iTunes.  this progresses but after rebooting, it gets to the activation process for a few minutes and re-boots again - in a loop now. on ios6, not 7. help please?
    I also looked at trying to do a manual install of firmware via iTunes but I do not know the version of firmware or how to find it out - so really stuck!
    Thanks

    I pulled my unit out of the dock - powered up and the display goes blank (if you look carefully you can see the bios boot screen, then black, then you can see the backlight turn off.
    I plugged in the USB monitor and boom - I could log in.
    Once Logged in I could see that windows still thinks it has some of the monitors from the dock, and the internal display is set to disable.
    So the issue is the detection / setup of monitors in/out of the dock.
    I've done about all I can do for dubugging, I hope lenovo can pick up from here. if not I'll have to call lenovo support.

  • Power/lock button does not work. I cannot lock my phone, shut it off or reset it. iPhone5s

  • Access Connections 5.12 and Power Manager 2.41a continue to garble the screen

    The newest versions of Access Connections and Power Manager continue to be soooooooo slowwwwwwww that when they start, they both leave a Not Responding screen in the background and the graphics in the foreground continue not to display properly. The big red circle is cut off at the top border and the Close buttons are fuzzy and not clear. The root problem is that both applications are exceedingly slow to load even on a super fast system.
    These problems version after version after version after version have never been corrected.
    I have drawn this to Lenovo's attention on numerous occassions before. This time is pretty much the last straw.
    Does anybody at Lenovo listen?  That was a rhetorical question.
    These two applications appear to be permanently broken.
    .... jdhurst

    The same experience here. The only new ThinkVantage app that works acceptably and is worth of upgrade is only Fingerprint reader software. Power Manger and Access Connections are too slow and add nothing that important (as far as I am concerned) to be worth of trouble to update. So I stick to the older versions in those two cases.

  • Windows Power Management settings don't work with ITunes

    Purchased a refurbished Dell Optiplex system a few weeks ago with a 3.2 Ghz Pentium processor, 1 gigabyte of RAM, and 160 GB of hard drive - so a nice, new, fast system running Windows XP.
    I set my Power Management settings to go to screen saver after 20 minutes, and power down after 45 minutes. It worked just fine for a month, and the day I downloaded Itunes onto this computer, those settings do not work.
    I have reset them.
    I have changed them (to as little as one minute).
    I have changed them back to the original settings.
    I have rebooted my computer.
    I have run 2 different spyware programs (Spybot and Adaware) as well as run an anti-virus scan (TrendMicro Housecall).
    Nothing has changed, and my only conclusion is that Itunes is somehow interfering with the power settings for my computer and monitor. This is rather frustrating, as I'd like my computer to shut off on its own if someone walks away (I can't trust my kids to log off on their own).
    Any ideas on what the problem might be?

    Hi, I just bought my iPhone a couple of days ago and am having the same problems.
    I have a Macbook at home, but need to be able to sync with my work computer for contacts and calendar. At work I'm running on Windows XP Pro SP 2 and MS Outlook 2003 SP 3. I've made sure to update all MS software. I'm running on iPhone 1.1.3 and iTunes 7.6.
    My contacts sync fine, but, so far, no luck with my calendar. I've gone through the trouble of completely deleting everything off my calendar and am trying "test" appointments to no avail. What's really frustrating is that I've logged out of my ID on this computer and logged in using a test ID. I can successfully sync a test appointment following those steps.
    Tech support tells me that since I'm successful under those conditions, it must be a corrupt entry on my main calendar. But, as I've mentioned, I deleted everything I can find off my main calendar and am still not able to get it to sync successfully.
    This is quite frustrating.

  • Power Manager 7.40 - installed, working fine, lost it after format

    So I don't really know how, I'm guessing it was installed either by an older Settings Dependency package or something, but I had Power Manager version 7.40 installed on my X220 with Windows 8 Pro.
    It worked pretty much perfectly, no crashes etc.
    I decided to make a fresh install of Windows 8 so that I can try 8.1.
    Sadly it appears Power Manager cannot be officially installed on Windows 8.
    The last version for Windows 7 is 6.5. I'm wondering - is there somewhere where we can download version 7.4 which I know for a fact worked fine with Windows 8?

    Power Manager is not supported on Windows 8.
    The 7.xx version thing is a side-effect of the following:
    - forcing Power Manager 6.xx to install on Win8 by using "compatibility mode"
    - upgrading your Win7 system with Power Manager, to Win8
    ... and then installing the Lenovo Settings Dependency Package.
    The Lenovo Settings Dependency Package updates binaries that are also used by Power Manager, this is where the 7.xx thing comes from.  There really isn't any Power Manager 7.xx
    I do not recommend using Power Manager on Windows 8, it is not supported and has never been tested on Win8.  Besdies this many users report problems from forcing Power Manager to install on Win8.

  • Photo gallery module manage items description not working

    Hi. On this page I've got two photo galleries. For some reason the Description in the Manage Items tool only works some of the time. Seems to be quite random as to when it will/won't work. Is there a reason for this?
    Waitakeres Ranges Maps

    I'm having the same problem. Can you give me an idea of how this is possible using AJAX or point me at a tutorial?
    for every iweb photos page iweb generates an rss.xml file with it, the captions are kept in the rss.xml .
    so you can use ajax method to read the rss.xml and figure out what need to be manipulated.
    there is no tutorial of any kind for iweb ajax widgets, I have not seen any one yet to crack an iweb widgets (this forum or elsewhere); so you are on your own.
    that said you can hyperlink photos page captions and thumbnails with simple javascript (simple mapping lookup), but you still need to know javascript and iweb widgets.
    here is my simple javascript sample: http://temp.cyclosaurus.com/NoThumbnails/Photos.html
    thumbnails and captions are hyperlinked to apple, ggogle and yahoo.
    code is linked to the sample, you'll have to adapt it to your own needs.

  • Icloud manage storage link not working on my iphone 4s

    I need to manage my icloud storage, but the manage storage link on my iphone is not working. When I click on it, nothing happens. Can anyone help with this problem? I don't want to buy more storage if I can turn off some of my apps in icloud. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks!

    Had the same problem recently (on an iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1). The phone couldn't back up to iCloud as the storage limit had been exceeded, and tapping "Manage Storage" in the iCloud settings didn't work: it just briefly showed a spinning wheel but I couldn't enter the Manage Storage screen. Looks like a bug.
    In the end I was able to solve it  via the iCloud settings on a laptop. Using this route, I removed the backup that was clogging the available 5GB free storage and was able to access Manage Storage again to tweak the settings. In my case this meant disabling iCloud backups of photos in the camera roll, which was the reason for the large size of the backup file in the first place.
    Here's what I did:
    1. Important step: first of all, make a backup of your phone in iTunes by connecting it to the computer and chosing the backup option in iTunes. You will delete the iCloud backup in step 3, so it's best to have another backup handy. It's not very likely your phone will crash in the short time it takes to complete these steps, but better safe than sorry.
    2. After making the full phone backup, I downloaded all the photos from the camera roll onto my computer and deleted them from the phone. There are different ways of doing this, on a Mac you can for instance use Image Capture. This step is not really necessary to get the backups working again as you will probably disable camera roll backups in step 3 anyway, but it's good to get into the habit of backing up photos on the computer regularly, rather than in iCloud. If you want to keep some photos on the phone as well, you can always copy them back from the computer onto the phone.
    3. Access iCloud storage management via the computer rather than the iPhone. Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847 > Backup > Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your device > Mac OS X (or Windows 8, Windows 7 and Vista). If you use a Windows computer and the iCloud control panel hasn't been installed yet, you can find it here http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.
    I don't think you can delete specific elements like the camera roll from the backup this way, you have to delete the whole thing. But you made another backup in step 1 so this isn't really a problem.
    4. On the iPhone, try to access Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage again - it should work now. In the next screen, choose your iPhone and you will get the Backup Options where you can switch backups on and off for different apps. It shows you how much storage each app takes, you will probably see that the Camera Roll is the largest so you may want to switch that off. Once you're happy with the settings, go back two screens to Storage & Backup and switch Icloud Backup back on (it was automatically switched off in step 3), and if you are on Wi-Fi, tap Back Up Now so it makes a new iCloud backup right away.
    That's all, hope it solves your problem.
