S510p Touch and driver updates?

All,
My wife bought me a Lenovo Ideapad S510p Touch for Christmas. Seems like a pretty nice laptop so far (still getting used to Windows 8 and having a keyboard with a full number pad!). We've had HP and Dell PCs before and both of those manufacturers have tools that identify new drivers that need to be updated. I have not been able to find anything like that for Lenovo yet. I seem to recall Lenovo took over IBM's PC business (versus some smaller vendor) so I would have thought they would have similar capabilities to the other big vendors. Am I missing this somewhere on the PC itself or on the website?
Thanks for your help!
Scott

For the Think product lines there is ThinkVantage System Update and other enterprise-focused tools to manage querying and updating drivers. There is no comparable tool to accomplish the same task on Idea and Essential systems. You'll need to visit your S510p device driver matrix: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?&DocID=DS037027 to monitor new releases.

I have just tried to update my ipod touch and the update failed but it has locked my ipod. All I get is a picture of the itunes logo and the usb lead

I have just tried to update my ipod touch and the update failed but it has locked my ipod. All I get is a picture of the itunes logo and the usb lead. I am unable to get the ipod to move and I don't know what to do. I think I should be recompenced by Apple if I have to pay to get it fixed!

The logo is saying connect it to your computer with iTunes installed on the computer. I assume when yo do this that the iPod is not seen in iTunes. to make iTunes appear try:
- Resetting the iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Place the iPod in recovery mode. See:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Place the iPod in DFU mode:

If the iPod appears in iTunes restore the iPOd. If not I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

i have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.

HP Laserjet 1200 and Driver Updates

On the "Download Drivers and Software" support page for the HP Laserjet 1200 printer, there is an option, "Automatically check to see if your driver needs updating".
A machine that I am supporting is having a MS Word collating issue (sometimes works, sometimes doesn't) and I don't know if its a driver issue or not. The machine is XP SP3.
If I click on this link, obviously it will check the drivers, but:
1) Will it give me the option to automatically update the drivers if it finds they are outdated, and
2) How do I roll back to the old driver if the update introduces problems?
Since this potential driver update isn't going through the normal MS XP driver update routine in Device Manager, I'm leery that I won't be able to recover if something goes wrong.

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
I hope this helps.

Why does my Windows Vista computer say the wrong iPod Touch name? I have multiple iPod Touches and after updating one of them, Windows Explorer says they are all the same name now.

Sorry for the exceedingly long title...
I have multiple iPod touches, and I just updated one of them to the newest iOS (5.0.1). Now whenever I plug in any of the others, the name of the one I updated appears in Windows explorer. How can I make Windows able to determine which iPod is which again?

iPod Classic are high drain USB devices, I hope you are not trying to connnect them simultaneously to iTunes, which will definitely hang your USB Host controller, thereby freeze iTunes.
But here is an Apple Support Article on using multiple iPods for iTunes.

HT1926 I have an ipod touch and recently updated my itunes and now my ipod keeps saying it is in recovery and needs to be restored. I keep attempting to do it (as it takes about 45 min.) and afterwards I get the same message. The screen tells me to plug

I have an ipod touch and recently performed the latest updates of itunes. It said there were problems with my ipod and it need to be restored. I did that and now it says it's in recovery mode and that I need to restore it. It takes 45 minutes and I've tried it several times and keep getting same message. My ipod is now unusable and it has a photo of a plug with an itunes icon telling me to plug it in. It is plugged in??? I restarted the computer, tried another computer, reset my ipod and nothing. Help!

If not successful try:
- Placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring.

- Try installing using the manual install method described here:

Installation of software and driver updates

I have been trying to install the software for my laserjet pr0 200 color mfp M276nw printer onto my hp touchsmart 320. I am able to download the software but the process stops when it gets to the installation portion. An error message appears. This same thing is happening when I try to install the hp driver updates that the hp support assistant recommends. Please help!

Hi,
Do you have the exact Blue Screen Error Message?
If the notebook restarts before you can make a note of the Blue screen then follow these instructions:
Tap F8 when you turn on the notebook. In the F8 screen select "Disable Automatic Restart on failure"
Once you disable it next time when the Blue screen comes up you'll be able to make a note of the Error..Look the error with number 0x0000... and file names at the bottom. That will help us to identify the cause of the Blue screen.
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

Software and driver updates

My laptop has been blue screening intermittently for the last year or two. It will sometimes happen when I try to put the computer in hibernate mode or shutdown, and it is much more likely to happen when it has to install updates on shutdown or when I try to defrag. I want to find out if it's a driver problem before assuming there is some hardware malfunction, but the HP Software and Driver page isn't working for me. I have the framework downloaded and it scans, but the 3 minute process has been going for over an hour. I know it isn't my internet that is the problem; it has to be something with my computer. How can I fix this, or is there another way for me to detect out of date software/drivers so I can at least try and find out if my drivers are the source of my occsional-but-still-often-enough-to-be-really-annoying blue screen problem?

Ipod touch and driver conflict

Since I upgraded to v2.0 of firmware, I've been getting blue screen error when updating firmware any version 2.0 or higher. Genius bar got me up and running, so thought I'd try again when I was offered v2.2. Same thing happened.
It looks like when v2.0 was introduced it upgraded my ipod driver. This is now conflicting with a driver already in use on my PC. Genius bar suggested it might be a logitech webcam driver but, none installed on this PC.
Have now tracked it down to the Freecom mobile external hard drive that I periodically plug in to back up on. Freecom website only seems to offer drivers for Win 98SE for that model. I've e-mailed them for help but wondered if anyone else had come across this and had a fix.
My pod is currently bricked until I can get back to an apple store again or until freecom come back with a driver...

OK - Freecom have com back to me. They said they haven't come cross this before. They don't think its a driver conflict as they only use standard windows drivers. But when we first used the external drive, we downloaded some software from the CD that came with it - Personal Media Suite. Never really used it. Uninstalled the software and the update is now working fine.
No more blue screen of death.

Brand new iPod touch and January update

I need your help to make a decision on iPod touch purchase. If I buy iPod touch now, the day after Macworld, will I get new apps for free? I searched apple.com but haven't been able to find the answer. This is essential, because there's no iTunes store in my country and I won't be able to buy the apps. The only way to get them is download free update.
Anyone has official information on that?

I did see someone say that if you bought your touch in 2008, you can get the update.
I don't know if it's true or not, but it may be worth a phone call to Apple to find out.
Cheers!

Issues with iPod Touch and latest update (4.3.3)?

I recently updated my iPod Touch 3G to 4.3.3. Before updating, I had absolutely no issues. Since updating, the iPod will shut off at will, sometimes flickering, sometimes going straight to the "slide to shut down" screen. Sometimes it will shut down in the middle of an app, I'll start it back up, and it will shut down again immediately. Occasionally, when I start it up after crashing, it will make the camera shutter sound! And there's no camera on this iPod!
Possible extenuating circumstance: I upgraded from a Power PC iMac to an Intel iMac at the same time I updated the software on the iPod. I have read the suggestions and the troubleshooting guide, and nothing has helped so far. I wiped the iPod clean and reinstalled and all that did was wipe out my settings (of course). Resyncing the iPod worked (apps and music loaded fine), but still it shuts down without warning. I tried installing a new free app, but that didn't work.
Usually I'm pretty good at figuring out these sorts of issues, but I'm at my wits end. Is anyone else having these problems? Am I screwed?

Okay, so now I have read that you have to install a free app through the phone, not through the computer. I've done so and it looks like everything is good for now. Keeping my fingers crossed. My question now, is that if this is a common occurance with the 4.3.3 update, why did Apple imply that I needed to wipe my iPod clean when this was the much easier and less invasive answer?

Ipod touch and january update help.

hi
i just reinstalled windows xp in my computer and i didnt back up the january updates from my itunes folder. when i synced my ipod after the reinstall it said i had to restore the ipod and after that the jan updates were gone.
someone at the apple store suggested going into itunes store and making sure i could see that i had purchased the jan updates and then scncing the ipod which i did...still didnt work.
can anyone help. the updates no longer exsist on my machine so i was hoping i could download them again without having to pay the $24.99 again or even waiting for the july 11 updates.
help...please

If you didn't back up the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file before you reinstalled your OS, your apps are gone, for now. It's an iTunes Store purchase, just like any music/videos purchased, and if not backed up, it's gone if you lose/wipe your HDD.
Apple has removed the January Upgrade from the iTunes store, so spending the $19.99 to get it back is not even possible.
Your best bet at this point is to wait for the July Upgrade (coming July 11th).
Hope this helps...

IPod Touch and January Update

can anybody help me here is my issue.
Okay so I bought the January update for my iPod touch when it came out in January and a couple weeks ago I had to reinstall windows on my computer. I then had to restore my iPod Touch cause it went all screwy and now it no longer has the January update on it. I read one of the articles that apple posted but they said that it has to be on the exact user account and computer that you purchased the update from. Considering I reloaded windows, its like I got a new computer and don't have the same user account. Can someone help me get the update back

Yeah, those are the first places I would have looked. The data isn't stored in the iTunes library, so even someone who was conscientious enough to back up their iTunes library before reinstalling the OS or moving to a new computer could likely lose that data. Even though it seems (for now) that Apple is more than willingly reauthorizing the downloads, their long history of "back it up or lose it" regarding iTunes purchases makes me wary of the longevity of this solution when, down the line, folks start getting new computers and many more find their iPods are not updating.
Jason: I would like to offer a suggestion if you check back on this thread. Either that data should be in a more obvious place (I know it's the same place as other iPod updates are stored, but I didn't pay for those!) so a user doesn't delete it or at least better instructions should be released in a more conspicuous place. I tried a search of "iPod Touch update move to new computer" and got zero results. Maybe introduce the location with the next go-round? Maybe an entry in notes or an alarm in calendar? I don't know. It just seems less than efficient to have to go begging for a re-download. Especially from Apple. Not very elegant.

G510 Windows 8.1 Pro X64 Conexant Audio Driver Error and Driver Update Request

When are we to expect some updates in the drivers for G510, specifically for both graphics (Intel and AMD)
Also I am using G510S's Lenovo Power Management for Windows 8.1(running with no issues) as Windows 8 version was not compatible and there is no Win8.1 version.
And there is an update available for Conexant Audio in windows update and after the update when ever I play music, a few seconds in the Audio Device stops(a red cross on volume icon) and then troubleshooter automatically runs and fixes the audio device and audio comes back.
Also I would like to request that you bring back Dobly Advanced Audio v2 that was available with WINDOWS 8 version of the driver. It was just much more convienient and I liked its graphics equilizer much better.
K thnx

Issues with flickering iPod Touch and latest update (5.0)?

I recently updated my iPod Touch 3G to 5.0. Since updating, the iPod will shut off at will, sometimes flickering, sometimes going straight to the "slide to shut down" screen. Sometimes it will shut down in the middle of an app, I'll start it back up, and it will shut down again immediately. Occasionally, when I start it up after crashing, it will make the camera shutter sound! And there's no camera on this iPod!
This also happened when I upgraded to 4.3.3. but eventually (over several weeks) stopped happening at all. I wiped the iPod clean and reinstalled and all that did was wipe out my settings (of course). Resyncing the iPod worked (apps and music loaded fine), but still it shuts down without warning. I tried installing a new free app, which I read would help, but that didn't work.
Usually I'm pretty good at figuring out these sorts of issues, but I'm at my wits end. My iPod is a little over 18 months old. Is anyone else having these problems? Am I screwed?

Okay, so now I have read that you have to install a free app through the phone, not through the computer. I've done so and it looks like everything is good for now. Keeping my fingers crossed.
