Problem with Hotkey Features

I've been having this problem for quite a while. I've notice that after a couple of days, one of the services of ThinkPad Hotkey Features, On Screen Display, have been disabled for some reason and seems impossible to restore without reinstallation. For instance, when I press Fn + F5 (wireless is on), instead of giving me the black screen to allow me to switch on/off wireless and Bluetooth, it only enable/disable the bluetooth button every time I press it. Same goes with the indicator icons of brightness and volume when I readjust them through the Fn + Home/End and Volume control buttons respectively.
I've contacted Lenovo service and they told me to reinstall the On Screen Display. However the problem keeps coming back. Is there any other way to do this so I don't have to reinstall time and again?
Appreciate if there are answers fast.
P.S. My system is a laptop with Lenovo T60 and Windows XP Professional SP2 (preinstalled), and I owned it for about 3 years already.

Problem Solved! 
I discovered how to locate earlier versions - I my case had to go back 3 versions of HotKey fix. For my laptop, T60 2007-49U, the latest version is 3.86.0000 - I found that 3.84.2000 restored both audio & brightness levels on screen display.
One point though, my previous display was a series of green bars - the new display is a black bar with white characters... no real problem - at least the On Screen Display is back! 
Thanks for your help in suggesting I try previous versions.

    Yes.  I don't have the version you pay for.  I also tried the free version
    of EchoSign.  Maybe that caused the problem.
    Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Problems with BW-Feature Pack

    Hi experts,
    we set up a ERP on MaxDB 7.6.0.6 and use this system now only for BI. The reports necessary to activate feature pack ran, but queries over fact tables are very slow.
    During the search for the reasons I found the notes 976930 and 901377. The system table DOMAIN.BWTABLES does not exits and the table DOMAIN:TABLES does not contain a property/column which shows that a table is a fact table.
    DOMAIN.TABLES is described as follows:
    SCHEMANAME;OWNER;TABLENAME;PRIVILEGES;TYPE;TABLETYPE;CREATEDATE;CREATETIME;UPDSTATDATE;UPDSTATTIME;ALTERDATE;ALTERTIME;UNLOADED;SAMPLE_PERCENT;SAMPLE_ROWS;COMMENT;TABLEID;DYNAMIC;ARCHIVE;VARIABLE_COLUMNS;VIRTUALKEY;
    SAPKBI;SAPKBI;/BI0/F0FC_C07;SELUPDDELINSREFINDALT+;TABLE;TABLE;2010-02-10;15:00:21;2010-02-10;15:00:21;2011-04-27;10:30:37;NO;?;20000;?;000000000002C4FD;NO;NO;YES;NO
    Is there somebody who has the possibilty to campare this table with "real" BI system?
    Thanks in advanced.

    Hi there,
    the FACT attribute can be reviewed in system table SYSDD.TABLES.
    The BWTABLES table has been abandoned with 7.6 - it's just not there anymore.
    If you've got problem with the performance, you may want to check [SDN WIKI|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/hx0B] or open a support message for that.
    regards,

    Hi,
    You won't see anything specific to hotkeys.  Hotkeys should work automatically.  If they are not, then go back into programs and features and click on Energy Management and uninstall it.
    Then reinstall it from here .  Reboot the machine and see if the hotkeys work.  The link is for Windows 7 64 bit.  You might want to go into control panel, system, scroll down and it will tell you which version you have.

  • Odd problems with Spry features

    I have finished a site at
    http://www.magnoliaparkburbank.org
    that uses many Spry features such as autosuggest, master-detail
    regions and css classes built into the xml files. The site has been
    developed on a Mac but I have a BrowserCam account with remote
    access so I can test the site on multiple platforms and browsers.
    My client is reporting odd behavior on some of the features.
    Particularly problematic is the store directory section. When the
    user clicks on "Neighborhood Directory" a pop up window opens with
    an html page that is mostly Spry driven. The client is reporting
    problems in the select menu (not all categories showing up) I have
    worked hard on the autosuggest feature with the help of Donald and
    Kinblas. The auto-suggest seems to work sometimes and not at other
    times. The user is supposed to be able to type the complete store
    name or part of the store name to see the address and phone number
    of that particular store. If the user wants to search again he
    clicks the search again and the fields are cleared. Sometimes
    things just seems to get stuck. There is also a problem in some
    browsers (Firefox) that does not allow the user to return to the
    parent window. I am looking for some feedback, suggestions and/or
    advice on the useability of this site. This is all complicated by
    the fact that the bulk of the site is in Flash including the call
    to open the browser window for the store directory.
    Thank you so much for any help!

    Hi Marlene,
    The close window problem is due to the IE hack
    window.opener='x' that you have in the href of your close window
    link. If you are trying to figure out how to prevent IE from
    prompting the user to see if it is ok to close the window
    programatically, do a net search on "window.opener='x'" and you'll
    see some pages that discuss a way of using openWindow to trick IE
    into not prompting the user based on the window name ... I believe
    the discussion centers around how that also works for other
    browsers like FF, etc.
    Regarding your auto-suggest problems, we'll need specifics
    from you as to what isn't working properly, what browser and
    platform, and what your expectations are in specific situations.
    For example what is your expectation when your user types in
    "siren" and hits return? etc.

  • Enable Transmit, Response Problem With Hotkeys

    Hi,
    Enable Transmit works slow if i use a hotkey. From Program Monitor, if i enable or disable transmit, it works fast but if i do same thing with shortcut, it's response slow.
    Regards.

    I am having the same problem.  Our response file is posted to a shared folder on the server, but only the person who created the file can run updates.  If that person happens to be out sick or the computer crashes, nobody else has the ability to get updated responses.  If anybody knows how to fix this, please help!

  • Indesign CS 5.5 problems with accessibility features

    I am required to create 508 accessible documents for the government agency I work for. The new features in Indesign allow you to export your document to an accessible pdf using the articles panel, export paragraph styles to tags and object tagging.  My question is this. It all works fine. The tags are great, it passes the accessibility check but you would expect the order panel to match the tags order and it does not. In the training on Adobe tv http://tv.adobe.com/watch/accessibility-adobe/part-2-exporting-and-finalizing-your-pdf/ they never even look at the order panel. I always have to reoder the tags in the order panel. will Adobe be addressing this issue?

    I've also posted the same problem in another thread. No matter if I use the Structure Pane or the Articles Pane within InDesign, once I open the file in Acrobat, the reading order still is incorrect. I found this solution (below) from another User, tested it, and it works. I really have an issue with the pdf "passing" the Accessibility test when the file is not Section 508 compliant.
    In Indesign, reorder ALL the objects on page using send to back, starting with the last object on page you wish read, continuing until the object you want read first in acrobat is sent to the back last in InDesign. The result is that the Reading order is correct in Acrobat. Obviously, any object additions to a page means re-ordering the whole page. Changing copy doesn't affect this. Also, the order of objects on a page has no relationship to the page structure. It appears that the object reading order is as objects are added to page. Ist added (and furthest back), 1st read, last added (nearest front), last read. Shuffling the objects in the Document Structure pane has no effect on this order (and vice-versa).

  • Problem with License feature in 2821

    Hi,
    Recently i was updating a router which had 2 ios images(spservices and advanceipservices). I needed to select advance ip services, so i ran the boot command on the router and then reloaded it.
    My problem is that after the router boots up its not showing any license feature
    I ran the command #sh license feature and  #show license detail .
    But its not showing any license.
    showing error - % Error: No License Found
    Please help
    Regards

    Hello Aateek,
    2800 Series routers (along with all Genration 1 ISR's- 1800/2800/3800's) do not use licenses.
    The advipservices feature set is loaded just by changing which IOS you boot to. In order to confirm you are using the advipservices feature set, perform a
    #sh version
    the output should start like what's below, only you want to see ADVIPSERVICES instead of ADVENTERPRISE and then whatever version you have. Any specific commands or features you need should work as soon as you confirm this. If the #sh version output says you are still using ipservices, you need to check your boot statements to make sure your router is trying to load the correct IOS file (you can watch this during the boot process if you have a direct console to the device).
    Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software
    2800 Software (C2800-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 12.3(8.2)T, INTERIM SOFTWARE
     Hope this helps! -Mike

  • IOS 5.0 - Problems with the feature "Mail"

    Gentleman,
    I installed the new iOS 5.0 and suddenly two problems appeared in my "mail" featured. I have a google mail count in my iPhone:
    - Appeared 2 Inboxs for the same mail, and both inbosx received the same messages. I could not delete this second mail box.
    - The messages in my Inbox does not show "from", just "to" and I can not put the message to "unread" or change anything. The most strange that the messages that I received become messages that I can send to others.
    I tried to restart the mail in the configuration, I tried to restart all the iPhone to return to factory configuration and the software return to iOS 5.0 and with the same problem.
    Anyone have the same problem? Any toughts?
    Thanks for your kindly attention

    Im having the same issue. It didnt happen right after the update. I updated at 1pm and it happened at 9pm. My memory is still there for them when i plug it into iTunes but the memory is now under "other" instead of apps.

  • Problem with accessing features as a host

    I just started using Adobe Connect. I created a New Meeting under Shared Meetings. When I open the room, I'm added as a participant vs. a host. Therefore, I don't have access to change the room layout, record, etc.  I am listed as a host under "Role."  Am I accessing the room incorrectly?
    Does it matter if I create a room under Shared Meetings vs. User Meetings?
    Also, how can I find which features are available with the license that I am using? I'm wondering if the license is limiting what I can and cannot do.
    Thanks.

    I'll make an assumption here, so correct me if I'm wrong. I believe you are using the Named Host licensing model. I would venture to guess you are in the Administrator group, and used that license/user ability to create a meeting in the Shared Meetings folder and add yourself as a Host of that room.
    However, to activate (for lack of a better term) the room and allow you and others in the room to be at a role above Participant, you must be a member of the Meeting Host group. Addd your self to that group, and then go back into the room you created and you should have full Host rights. If you don't you may want to either clear your browser's cookies or wait 7-15 minutes, with the room closed, to allow the session for that room to be ended by the server, and then go back into your room.
    The rooms location on the server should have zero effect on access and functionality on the room.

  • IPhone 4S problem with microphone feature to record messages, rather than typing them

    I have a new iphone 4S and started using the mircophone record feature to create and send messages. However, today the microphone feature will not translate my messages into text to send - I'll record a message and the iphone will "churn," but never show the text for me to review and send. I am still able to type my messages and send - just can't use the microphone record feature, which is what I wanted with the iPhone!  I just got this phone this week and it was working great for the first couple of days. All software is up to date.  Help please!

    I'm almost 100% sure it's a 5.0.1 issue because 2 weeks ago I had my old iphone4s which had iOS 5 on it and the microphone worked like a charm, due to contract issues I was forced to get another iphone4s that came to me delivered with iOS 5.0.1 preinstalled and that's when my microphone stopped working, thus iOS 5.0.1 is the problem

  • Scrapbook 1.3.7: Problems with editing feature ... disappeared

    In the ''Scrapbook 1.3.7 extension'', I'm having difficulty when "capturing as" website pages ... when doing so, the page no longer opens with the context menu at the bottom, allowing me to do edits to the page before saving. I have TONS of scrapbook folders/websites saved, and can no longer get the edit function to automatically open when triggering the "capture" feature from the Scrapbook icon in the menu bar.
    Can anyone suggest a setting I may need to change in order to get this function to return?

    sounds a bit messy, just becasue of a biosflash.
    Don´t really know, but try reset cmos/load default bios and make a new fresh install of win XP and see what happens.
