Some minor issues with Windows 7

I have a Thinkpad SL400 and the 64bit version of Windows 7.  For the mostpart, everything works pretty smoothly but I do have a few issues.  My volume buttons are unresponsive, and the battery bar for the power manager says that I do not have a battery installed.  Also I cannot use my fingerprint scanner to log-in.  Any Ideas that could help resolve any of these issues would be appreciated.

Hi,
till now I was not informed about the direct downgrade to Vista. However, you can call the support and describe the situaiton and they will surelly direct you to the vista downgrade center, which (I assume) will offer you this option.
Unfortunately I cannot tell, if this will be charged.
A neutral update, but might help you out.
Cheers

    Lindsay,
    Your iBookG4 is still a pretty awesome Mac. Like already said, it has the power to run Leopard, but it depends if you have an internal DVD drive.
    Then I suppose you have to add up the cost of the OS, perhaps another 512MB RAM, iLife 08 and replacements for any favourite apps that you currently use (Leopard breaks a lot of stuff, but Intel breaks even more). Compare it to the cost of a new MacBook, which wil have all of that included and be 3-4x faster too.
    It also depends on what you want to achieve with your iBook. My PMG4 still cuts it today, I still use it in preference to my new Mac Pro, It's about the same age as your iBook, and I'll only stop using it when it becomes "painfully" slow. My 1 year old son currently uses the Mac Pro (parts for a Mac Pro are easier to replace than those for a PMG4).
    I think your choice is simple, if you can a cheap copy of Tiger, use that, it'll get your iPod Touch up and running. It came in DVD and 4 CD version (by request).
    Leopard will work for you too but a lot of the best eye-candy requires quite a meaty graphics card and you may need a RAM upgrade and replacement software - OS9 Classic is not supported in Leopard.

  • Some minor issues we are facing in converting the 6i application to 10g ,

    Regarding 10g froms i need support in resolving following issues:-
    1. Direct print to default printer
    In some of our applications user do not want to see the print preview and prefer direct print in 6i we were doing this by defining Desitination in report paramenters
    2. Open each form in new window
    We open each new form using OPEN_FORM() builtin, but all forms open in same MDI window, how using open form we can open the forms in new window
    3. Maintaining source code in windows and linux
    Initaially our developers test the forms under windows 10g AS environment but when the same form in uploaded on Linux machine they need to make some changes like " replacing all \ with /, converting all paths to lower case etc
    how we can write the same code for linux and windows
    These are some minor issues we are facing in converting the 6i application to 10g environment ...

    1) We don't do direct printing. We print everything to PDF files in a user's network mapped drive. They print or preview as required.
    2) We overcame this problem by using Java WebStart
    [http://groundside.com/blog/JanCarlin.php?title=forms_and_java_web_start&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1]
    It frees Forms from being browser based and looks more like a 'real' application.
    3) We use FormsAPI Master [Link to ORCL-Toolbox|http://www.orcl-toolbox.com/] to automatically convert from Windows to Unix. Our script converts uppercase to lowercase for icons, menus, library attachments, etc. We only do this once - unless new libraries have been attached in the wrong case. For things like '\' to '/' , Windows is quite happy to accept '/' as a delimiter. "cd C:\temp" is the same as "cd c:/temp". However, there are obvious differences between Windows and Unix. If there is any interaction between the Form and the operating system, then we do all our testing in the Unix environment - leaving Windows as a "does the screen layout look OK" environment.

  • SL Server Permission Issues with Windows XP Clients

    I'm running into some permissions issues with Snow Leopard Server. I know it's specific to SL Server because I have two Leopard servers and neither one is affected. All servers are set up the same way.
    I'm using this SL server as a file server in the golden triangle approach: AD for Users, OD for Groups that supply AD User membership. I have one volume per OD group, and that group has read/write privileges to that volume via the default Server Admin read/write ACL. POSIX permissions are 770 on the top level directory, and ownership is set to the AD user who owns the volume, and the OD group the volume belongs to.
    The client is XP SP3. When the client accesses a share on the SL server, their access is correctly granted and they can browse the share and read any files inside the share. They can copy files to the share from wherever. They can open, edit, and save files. However, they cannot rename or delete files within the share. They cannot rename folders, but can delete them. This affects all AD users regardless of the OD group they're in.
    I have a few Windows 7 and Vista clients on the network, and these two OS's are not affected by this so the problem is limited to XP. If I create a user in OD, and auth to the sever from the XP client as that user, the problem goes away, so it's something to do with AD and SMB.
    I do have a ticket in with Apple support, which was escalated to Engineering. Still waiting on that.
    Things I have tried that have not worked/helped:
    -Modify the ACL to Full Privileges
    -Tried removing/re-adding user to OD group.
    -Remove darwin_streams from vfs_objects in smb.conf
    stream support = no
    ea support = yes/no (tried both ways)
    darwin_streams:brlm = no
    -Added nt acl support = no to smb.conf
    per http://bit.ly/6aYycW
    -Animal sacrifice..... ??
    Help?

    I need to do more testing, but I think the fix is to add "acl check permissions = no" to the bottom of /etc/smb.conf:
    ; Site-specific parameters can be added below this comment.
    [global]
    acl check permissions = no

  • Major Issues with Windows XP and Sound Blaster Audig

    As mentioned in the post title, I'm using a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 card (recently purchased) and am having issues with Windows XP apparently because of it. When the card is physically installed, but the drivers are not, there are no problems. However, when the drivers are installed, Windows XP's "explorer.exe" crashes on boot, locking up the start menu and any other open windows. Now, I can manually end the explorer.exe application and then reboot it, and things will work... however, I cannot imagine that that is the intended functionality of this card. Additionally, I suspect the card in the failure of a game (Eve Online) but I would assume the issues are related. I've already narrowed the issue down to the Sound Blaster drivers. I've tried booting with the SB drivers but without the video card drivers, and the problem recurred. Every time I boot with the SB drivers installed, it fails. Without them, things seem to run normally. If it helps, I'm using an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 processor, with GB of DDR800 RAM. I've installed Windows Service Pack 2 and all the other updates. The video card is a Geforce 7950 GT, with the latest NVidia Forceware (93.7) drivers. I've had this problem with both the Audigy drivers on the CD that came with the card and the newest ones downloaded from this website. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, which includes onboard sound hardware, but I have disabled it at the BIOS level. I can provide dxdiag information or anything like that if necessary. Does anyone have any advice, suggestions, or have you encountered a similar problem?Message Edited by DerekKatz on 2-04-200603:2 AM

    Thanks for the helpful reply Dan
    I ran the file, CTZAPXX.exe, like suggested, and it ran without a problem. It installed the files and even required me to reboot my computer!!
    However, after a computer restart, I am still in the same boat. Codecs are installed, but the location of the device is "unknown". In Device manager, there are no unknown devices; it shows the codecs in the sound tab, but no actual hardware; as if my sound card does not exist.
    I use my computer for music, and my buddy needs me tomorrow night to play some music stored on my computer. I really do appreciate the help I am offered. I do not mean to sound impatient, but I really need this device fixed, or I will have to have him buy me a sound card....

  • Weird Issue With Windows Live Mail

  • Weird issue with Windows Server 2008 R2 Print Server

    I have an issue with Windows 2008 R2 (VMWare Hosted) running Windows Print Server. 
    Prior to a small network change, the print server was working well, hosting about 80 different networked printers from various vendors. 
    We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers). The DNS servers never quite worked right and broke AD authentication to different servers, and was just a mess.
    After rolling back we are not able to keep the printers online. If we ping them from the print server, the printer(s) never wake up, when a print job is submitted. If we ping them from one of the access switches, they work fine (until they fall back asleep),
    to prevent this, if we start a ping on the server AFTER waking them up from the Switch Ping, they stay online and no problems. 
    If we stop the ping, they fall back asleep at some point, and again, won't wake up without intervention/switch side ping. 
    Has anyone experienced anything like this? Any tips on how I could possibly resolve it? 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    According to your description, the issue seems to be that the printers can't keep online. Sounds like a power managerment issue. Why these printers fall into sleep? Have you consulted this issue with the manufacturer of these printers? Do these printers
    fall into sleep if them lose the contact with printer server? Have you tried to reset the printers?
    >>We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers).
    DNS client will cache the recently queried records. If the DNS server has replied with a wrong records, communication issues will occur. To clear the DNS cache on a Windows device, please run the command below:
    ipconfig /flushdns

  • URL issue with Windows 7 Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW PI 7.

    Hello SAP community,
    I am facing a strange issue with Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW java services (I hope I am in the correct discussion) ...
    When I try to open URL http://sapserver.hosters-name:port it is working so far with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
    But when I click than on NWA (example), I am getting "http 500 server error".
    I don't have the issue, when I start-up a VMware Workstation with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.
    But now the strange part: In our network DNS (Domain Name Service), we can also open the URL by http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
    Than it is working without problems with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
    I would agree to state the comment - it is just a Windows 7/Internet Explorer 11 issue, if it wouldn't work for both URLs (http://sapserver.hosters-name:port = problem URL; http://sapserver.our-dsn:port = working).
    We are using a SAP NW PI 7.x system. Some URLs for PI are using http://sapserver.hosters-name:port/java service.
    Do you have any hints what is cause the issue - I suspect some with Internet Explorer and Firefox (because with Google Chrome at least the URL for NWA is opened, beside the issue, Google Chrome can't display NWA content)?
    Thanks for your help.
    Best regards
    Carlos

    Hi all,
    I think I found the solution.
    The reason seems to be, the domain name for http://sapserver.our-dns:port, "our-dns" was already added to the compatibility view settings of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    That seemed to be the reason, why it was working with http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
    When I now added for http://sapserver.hosters-name:port the domain "hosters-name" to the compatibility view settings it is now working.
    Internet Explorer Options => Settings for compatibility view => Add domain
    Best regards
    Carlos

  • Minor issues with CreditRating tutorial

    Just in case someone else encounters these problems with the CreditRating tutorial in the Quick Start for BPEL:
    The Eclipse wizard doesn't seem to be able to add the home="${orabpelHome}" attribute to the bpelc task in the build.xml. In my case it's C:/Apps/OraBPELPM_1/integration/orabpel.
    I had to manually change the WSDL in the orabpel\domains\default\tmp\.bpel_CACreditFlow_1.0.jar\ directory. There must be some way to get the deploy tool to set $SERVER-URL$=http://yourserver:9700, but I don't see the way. This needed to be set in the schemaLocation attribute for the ws-addressing.xsd file.
    The generated build.xml refers to a "BPEL Programming" guide... but I haven't found it. That's annoying.
    There are a couple of other minor issues with the tutorial, but this got it working for me.
    Chris

    Hi Christopher,
    Thanks for the Post.
    Just a few Questions on the version on which you faced this issue.
    1. The Version of the BPEL Server.(Is it 10.1.2 or 2.1.2)
    2. Have you applied the patch on the install if its 10.1.2?
    3. What Designer you are using? (JDev or Eclipse)(I presume Eclipse)
    4. Are you facing the same issue if you use the JDev Designer? or the obant on the Developer prompt?
    Regards,
    Dhaval

  • Some minor issues on Toshiba T130-10g

    Hello.
    I experimentally try to use Arch on my Toshiba T130-10g. While I have already successfully configured wireless, synaptics, cpufreq, laptop-mode there are still some minor issues I want to solve:
    1) How do I turn off wifi completely in order to save a little bit of power? Sometimes I don't need wifi so I would like to turn it off. I tried this command
    iwconfig wlan0 txpower off
    but it threw an error: Error for wireless request "Set Tx Power" (8B26) : SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported. I tried to google a lot for the solution, but I didn't fins anything which would resolve the issue.
    2) How do I make that in cpufreq applet in Gnome I would change profiles (e.g. from powersave to ondemand) without having change it as a root but as an ordinary user?
    3) Setting brightness doesnt work for my laptop. I can set it by setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=30 as a root but I'm looking for a more comfortable solution. BTW, editing one GRUB configuration file didn't help and ended in booting into command line (it was something with adding backlight=vendor or something like that...) I'm looking for a more comfortable solution that manually changing the brightness.
    4) How do I turnoff bluetooth automatically after start?
    5) Back in KDE 3.5 times, the network manager could easily track the statistics about downloaded volumes and categorize it in days, weeks and months I take. Is there something easy now like e.g. an applet which could do that in modern Gnome or KDE 4.X environment?
    6) Is XFS as FS best for my multimedia partition? I have there MP3s, videos, ISO files and some backuped Documents. Would change to ext4 partition would have any visible effects (like loading my MP3 playlists in Juk faster?)
    7) Since not all my FN keys work, I'd like to associate for example hibernate function with some key combination. How?
    Thank you. Please feel free to respond to any of these questions.

    1) don't you have a little wireless hardware switch on the front side of the laptop case to turn off wireless? If not, that ifconfig command only works for certain chipsets that support it. Did you try running the command as root?
    3) did you try "xbacklight"? Works for me on my Toshiba L300
    4) not sure but probably "/etc/rc.d/bluetooth stop" as root. Or put that command in /etc/rc.local
    7) http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-ac … 36.html.en

  • I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

    I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

    Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.
