SL510 seems to be dead

Hi,
Today, my SL510 stopped working, when I press the power button it does not turn on. However, when I plug in the power the battery light comes on.
I've tried taking out the ram and inserting it back in, that did not help.
Please suggest.
Dave

Hi Dave,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that your Lenovo ThinkPad SL510 is not powering on.
I would suggest you to perform Flee Power – remove the battery and any other peripheral device connected to the computer. Hold the power button for 10-15 seconds and then connect only the AC Adapter and try to turn ON the computer.
Remove the RAM, power it up and check if you hear beep sounds. Reinstall the RAM, startup normally and check if the system boots normally.
If you have a spare good known battery and adapter, try powering on the system using the same just to ensure that it’s not a battery/adapter failure.
Please let me know the happenings!
Best regards,
Mithun.

I refurbished my macbook air 7 months ago because there was a problem with the steady state drive. Now my battery seems to be dead again. How long does the warranty last? Do I need to pay for a new battery?

I refurbished my macbook air 7 months ago because there was a problem with the steady state drive. Now my battery seems to be dead again. How long does the warranty last? Do I need to pay for a new battery?

As I wrote Apple will diagnose an Apple product even if it is out of warranty for free. That should be your first step to find out if the problem is the battery or something else.
Once you have Apple telling you a 7 month old battery is defective (if that turns out to be the case) then it becomes a game of horse trading. You'll need to speak to the tech and when he tells you there is nothing he can do you will need to speak to the tech manager and when she says most likely there is nothing they can do you go to the store manager, etc. It is unlikely (though possible) that they will give in easily you need to be firm, polite and let on that you're willing to accept a partial reimbursement.
So again the first step is to find out what is wrong.
good luck

Download link for Android version of Firefox Mobile Beta seems to be dead

Didn't know where else to to write this: The download link on http://firefox.com/m/beta seems to be dead. I have tried both the /da and the /en-US version.
I'm on Android 2.1-update1 on a Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro . All other downloads and apps work fine, so I think this might be a simple 404 (Btw.: I tried a couple of days ago as well with the same result).)
Let me know if I can help troubleshoot it further.

Sorry, Firefox is not available for the Xperia X10 Mini Pro. For more information, see:

Firewire ports on Cube seem to be dead

The firewire ports on my Cube seem to be dead, in that the Cube is not able to see an external drive connected to either of the ports (and the external drive can be seen when connected to another computer). Is that sufficient evidence to conclude that my firewire ports are dead? Is there any software test I could perform? Is it possible to repair the firewire ports?
I'm afraid it's about time to retire the Cube.

I see a PDF on the top of this search page. And a little lower down is link to a video on removing the board.

New C310 - Wireless working FAIL - Printer's wireless network seems to be dead

Product: HP Photosmart Premium C310
OS: Windows Vista 64 bit and Windows 7 64 Bit
Error: Wireless working: FAIL
Changes: No changes since this is the first install of this printer ever
Description:
I've just unpacked my new C310 as a replacement for my older HP Inktjet 3845.
But when trying to install the wireless network everything I try seems to fail.
Printer doesn't detect my wireless network (blue wireless led is blinking 1sec on - 1sec off )
HP Network test tool on my laptop (standing next to the printer to test it's location ) gives no issues whatsoever, wireless network is strong and working very well.
Settings of the wifi connection are WPA security, no WPS, Channel 11, ... .
When I run a Wireless Network Test report from the printer menu, the result is (= printout)
* Wireless On => PASS
* Wireless Working => FAIL
* All the other points below are on status NOT RUN so no connection at all ...
Solutions tested:
Tried to reboot printer while waiting 1 minute in between => No result
Reset to factory settings straight on the printer => No result
Tried to run the Wireless network Setup Wizzard several times without merit.
Explanations on the forums seemed to be that this might be a faulty wireless network card in the printer?
Since this is one of the reasons of buying this item, I do need it to work.
Can anyone provide me advice/next steps?
Kind regards,
Raf

Documents in the cloud seems to be dead after update

After the latest update (Mac and iOS) iCloud Documents is no longer working. icloud with calender and contacts is working but not documents in the cloud.
I use iwork on all my devices (iPad/iPhone/Mac) and it worked well in the last year. Now all functions are dead.
No up/download from/to Mac. Tried log out/log on to iCloud no change. Tried to connect via browser, but after selecting Pages or any other iWork app i'm always asked to give in my apple ID again. (This was working for weeks without any problem)
Any idea?

iCloud IS a disappointment. I am more than frustrated by the iCloud document service and sync. I teach and use a Numbers spreadsheet to keep track of my projects, grading and classroom attendance. I used to carry around a flash drive or use my wifi to exchange the latest updates to and from my laptop and desktop. When iCloud began I was excited about the possibility of accessing one file from two devices. But I am getting only upload failures and errors every time I try to access the shared document. It appears that the file is saved from the laptop and is accessible there. But if I go onto the iCloud web site or try to open the document from another computer, the document isn't there or, more than likely, the saved document was uploaded incompletely. So now I have a local backup on my laptop, another on my desktop, one incomplete document on the cloud and the original saved on the cloud on my laptop. The whole system is unreliable.
My fear is that since Mtn Lion saves 'local' documents to the cloud (unless you manually change the save to the hard drive), any document left up there will not be accessible by a new replacement machine or even a correctly inputted id and pw.
I'm going back to local save, copy and replace method of keeping one file up-to-date on multiple computers and talk to the iCloud geniuses to find out what's going on. I'll report back.

Screen Problem Mac Book Pro 15 "2 / 3 of the bottom seems to be dead

Hello everyone and thank you in advance for your help.
This week, I opened my laptop and 2 / 3 of the bottom screen were flat charcoal. I was only able to use 1 / 3 of my screen at the top .. I had to restart the computer 4 times before everything returns to normal. I arrive at home in the evening, same thing.
I looked in the 180 pages of MacBook Pro's screen related problems on this forum and nobody seems to have had this problem before me Yesterday morning, I made an appointment with a Mac Genuise at AppleStore.. Just before to leave I tried to open the computer and everything was fine, so the problem seems to be intermitant.... I've restarted it 6 times and everything as OK.. (GRrrrr..) So I did'nt went to see the Mac Genuise.
This morning, I open my computer telling me that the problem was probably left as if magically. Nope, I still have to restart it 3 times before to be able to use the computer ..
Is somebody have an idea of what the problem could be ?
Thanks
By the way, sorry for my English, I'm French!

Hi Mathieu,
I am having the same problem.
I initially thought it was the graphics card, however the interesting thing is that the mouse pointer also dies after about a minute. The last time it happened, I attached a second screen to the MBP, and turned on mirroring. Almost immediately theMBP screen came back. This means that it is more likely a driver bug. It took me a while to find this thread, but I figured based on what I found that I couldn't be alone. It also never happened until I upgraded to Leopard....
At least you know you're not alone.

After great man called Steve....apple services also seems to be dead

I purchased 3 iphones from Ner Jersy in Dec 2012. One got defective. Tried replacing in UAE/India and UK. Every one in apple saying new story everytime and no one seems interested to solve my problem.

iPhone warranty/support has always been limited to country of original purchase(except for the EU where warranty/support is EU wide). In your case, as you've found out, your warranty/support is only valid in the US.
Always been this way with the iPhone, since the first iPhone was released. If you want warranty service for these phones, you need to physically return them to the US...you can't mail them to Apple. You can mail them to a friend/relative in the US, and they can take them to an Apple store, then mail them back to you.

Cinch (RCA) Output seems to be dead

hi there
i'm a satisfied appletv user since more than a year, but i didn't use this device for about 2 months.
now my problem: i go to my screen over the HDMI port - works fine. the audio goes from the aux-ouput (rca) to my active speakers. this worked fine before, but now i can't hear anything.
the used cables and the speakers as well are okay, so the problem must come from the appleTV. if i turn up the volume to the max, i can hear very very low the music.
i did already a reset with no success. has anybody an idea?
thanks for ur help.

well that would be a new feature that you are talking about.. and it would involve apple licensing from Dolby in order to do the conversion which would make the product more expensive, so i'm not sure that's going to happen too soon in the future.
don't shoot the messenger, i'm just describing how the device actually works, not how it should work. it's not a bug.. it's by design. basically with this device, if you plan on playing movies through equipment not capable of decoding DD 5.1 then you need to include a stereo track.. when you are playing the movie press and hold play then right click to change audio track and choose the 5.1 track (which just lists it as the language) or the stereo track.. all movies in iTunes include at least a stereo track and most now seem to include DD 5.1 tracks..

My g4 seems to be dead suddenly while using an app

while using my g4, it turns black and there is no way to turn it on. is not recognized from Itunes and does't work the reinitializing.
Otherwise seems that cannot be recharged. Is it definitely death!!!
Is there a way to restore it?
Thanks in advance..

I assume your talking about your iPhone 4 or 4S? There is no g4 iPhone.
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Part of the touch screen seems to be dead

Hello All,
Having a problem with the touch screen. It works just fine, except that the lower left corner isn't reacting to touch. When in the desktop screen, the left half of the task bar will not react to touch. the right half is fine along with the area right above it.
This makes using the desktop very difficult to say the least. I have tried to calabrate it multiple times. When the crosshairs are in all four positions of the lower left corner, it will not pickup your touches. The driver is the most current available, and no problems using a mouse.
Any help would be appreciated if there is a fix. I hate the thought of having to ship the unit back to HP for repair unless absolutely necessary. It is under warranty, but looking for a possible fix.
Thank you all so much for the help! I look forward to hearing from the "Real Experts".

Seems to be dead- fully charged and won't respond

So I've had my ipod for about two, three years now, and it's always worked fine. The battery was low, so I stuck it on my Ihome, and let it play while it recharged. I noticed it stopped playing- but just figuring it was one of those songs that has a few seconds of silence I ignored it for about a half an hour. Came back, still wasn't playing. I took it off the Ihome, it was warm on the bottom and had a slight burning smell to it- but was frozon on the song it stopped on. It won't do anything now, it won't come off that screen, no backlight comes on nor will it turn off. No noise either. I tried jiggiling the hold button, even kept pressing the buttons on the front- plugged it into the computer and nothing on my computer shows I have plugged anything in.
I heard of a few ipods bursting aflame on a charger before, is this something like that? Is it worth a trip across town to an ipod store, or is it really dead?

my ipod is doing the same thing!!! I don't know how to fix it someone needs to help us!!!

HELP ! My USB ports seems to be deads !

Hello,
For my weekly back-up, I use an USB external HDD that have to use 2 USB ports.
In order to use only 1 port, I've connected my external HDD to a power supply.
Unfortunately, it seems that the power suplly I used wasn't the goos one for my HDD and when I've connected the HDD to the MacBook, the MacBook as turned off. So, I quickly have unplugged the USB and I've reboot the MacBook but it told me that the USB port was using to much energy and that it will be disabled.
So, I've unplugged all the rest on the USB (my keyboard with my mouse plugged-on) and I've reboot the MacBook. Unfortunately, it told me again that the USB port was using too much energy.
So, I turned off the MacBook, unplugged the power supply and removed the battery and I plugged my mouse to the 2 USB ports in order to unload a possible capacitor too much loaded and I turned my MacBook back on.
Now, I don't have any message but the 2 USB ports are not working. Here is a capture of my System Informations :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/331131/info_sys.png
I searched how to activate my ports on the Internet but the only solution I found was to reboot the laptop, and it's not working for me...
Do you know how to activate manually the USB ports or do I have to make my mourning ?
Thanks,
-Pit

Bonjour,
Pour mon back-up hebdomadaire, j'utilise un disque dur externe en USB.
Malheureusement, celui-ci m'oblige à le branché sur les 2 ports USB de mon MacBook, ce qui fait que c'est assez chiant de bosser dessus pendant que le disque dur est branché.
J'ai remarqué que mon boîtier de disque dur avait une prise pour alimentation externe. J'ai donc branché la première alimentation qui m'est tombée sous la main et qui semblait être faite pour lui. Comme ça, j'avais l'intention de ne brancher le boîtier qu'à un seul port USB et ça aurait dû fonctionner...
Sauf que voilà, de toute évidence, l'alimentation utilisée n'était pas la bonne et lorsque j'ai branché le boîtier, le MacBook s'est éteint.
Je me suis empressé de le débranché et j'ai redémarré le MacBook.
Au démarrage, celui-ci me dit qu'un port USB consomme trop d'énergie et qu'il sera désactivé. Et effectivement, il l'est. Je redémarre donc en débranchant tout ce qu'i y a sur les ports USB (mon clavier et la souris qui est branchée dessus) et je redémarre. Rebelotte, le même message qui revient. Je l'éteint donc, le débranche, enlève la batterie, branche ma souris en USB pour "décharger" un éventuel condensateur trop chargé et je relance la bécane avec la batterie et l'alimentation.
J'ai plus le message, donc j'ai un peu d'espoir qui revient et je rebranche ma souris pour tester le port... rien.
Je redémarre, re-test... rien.
Je vais dans les informations système, et j'ai ça :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/331131/info_sys.png
J'ai cherché comment ré-activer mes ports USB mais la seule solution que j'ai trouvée c'est de redémarrer la machine, ce qui ne marche pas dans mon cas.
Avez-vous une solution pour ré-activer mes ports ou dois-je faire mon deuil ?
Merci.

Try to reset the parameter random access memory (PRAM) and nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM) on your computer. Turn off your computer, then restart it and immediately press and hold the "Command," "Option," "P" and "R" keys on the keyboard. Release the keys after you hear the startup chime for the third time and your computer should boot normally.
To avoid such issues you may use a self-powered USB hub (one that comes with a separate power brick).

IPod seems to be dead, strange symptoms

Saturday I'm driving around and I hit the play button on my iPod (an older one, probably 5 years old, 20 gig Classic-style). No music. I look down, and it's flipping through the songs: the song title/band/etc will be on the screen for 1-2 seconds, then off to another in a random order.
I do a reset, I do every reset I can, I do the "flip into disk mode" reset. In iTunes I tell it to reset to default. Now it won't power on, it's showing the icon to plug the AC adapter into the wall. Sadly, I don't have an AC adapter, so I can't do that. I seem to recall there were specific instructions to get past that icon, but I can't find them. I briefly got it into menus and all the music seemed to be gone, which is OK, I can load it easily enough.
So now I've got a spiffy-looking paperweight (my wife bought me the Flying Spaghetti Monster skin for Xmas!). Any suggestions? I'm going to go by Best Buy over lunch and buy an AC adapter, I'm also going to try plugging it into a speaker cradle.

Yeah, you'd think a car charger would work too...
have an URL for a program that would read/write the play lists on my iPod
Are you trying to put playlists on the iPod? That's a function of iTunes, if you use sync instead of manual loading of songs.
If you are trying to take playlists off the iPod onto the computer, I have used a program that can do so

but it is not free ($25).
