Stand by time on Yoga 2 Pro

Just curious what you folks are getting when your tablet is not in use.

Thanks! Still thou, that's great standby time! Sure the Pro is 13.3 and the usage will vary because of the massive screen, but it's still a good reference. I'm still debating with myself if I should keep mine (arriving today) or ship it back in favor of different brand. The lack of lenovo's support and track records updates and patches is scaring me off.

  • Yoga Pro 3 - Wifi dropped connections; refuses to reconnect

    First day of owning my Yoga Pro 3. Has anyone experienced intermittent wifi failures?
    I've had trouble on both access points that I have at home. One is an older 802.11b router (set to channel 1), and other a D-Link815 dual-band bgn router (with the 2.4Ghz radio set to channel 11). 
    I've experienced problems using both routers on either channel and when using the 5Ghz spectrum as well.
    Connectivity with either access point lasts from 5 mins to 30+ mins (in limited time I had available to use it so far).
    Far more frustrating is that when dropped, the YP3 refuses to reconnect. Manually selecting the access point in the network connections charm and clicking "Connect" results in failed attempts at connecting and system will refuse to connect to any Access Point for a random amount of time. At one point I had attempted to reconnect about 20+ times before it did reconnect.
    Obviously, tried rebooting without any change in behavior.
    I uninstalled the Broadcom wireless driver (the system the auto-installed a Microsoft driver which, from the version number, appeared to be an older version of the same Broadcom driver as they used a very similar numbering scheme and were very close). No change. I reverted that change.
    Are there known issues with these wifi cards/drivers accessing open wifi connections? I live in the middle of no-where, so have had no compelling reason to secure the access points.
    What else should I try?
    Thanks

    My WiFi connects fine @ 2.4 GHz only Access Point (netgear wnr2000 v2) 4 rooms away (~ 35 feet and my Linksys router is on the same room as me so I get 866.5 Mbps all the time), giving me fluctuating connection speed from 243 to 300 Mbps. I generally don't use the 2.4 GHz band but I occasionally try it to check for stability. It's working fine but there's too much 2.4 GHz clients in our area so I use 5 GHz for Netflix, Hulu steaming where low latency stability is needed.
    Definitely try reseating the antenna so you can rule that out. If you still can't connect @ 2.4 GHz, try other 2.4 Ghz access points or it's just that you get a defectve Broadcom 4352 card or it might be even Windows 8.1 drivers itself.

  • Ready to install fresh win 8.1 on new Yoga Pro 2

    So, I just got my yoga pro 2 Friday. Can't stand the extra stuff and 7 particians. 
    I've got a usb stick with a copy of win 8.1 on it. I can boot to it and get the windows installer started ( I stopped at the partiican table)
    I got the drivers folder from the D: on the yoga backed up.
    Got my win 8.1 pro product key written down.
    Don't think I will need any of the lenovo apps.
    Nothing else I need, right?  I did actually make a system image of the fresh install on another external drive when I got it, so if i did need to go back, I can.
    The windows installer will take care of all partiicans, correct? I'm new to EUFI boot.  I can see that legacy mode is disabled in the bios now.
    Thanks for any help. Looking forward to a clean install.  Wish I could have gotten this from a MIcrosoft store instead so I don't have to deal with it.

  • Yoga Pro 3 two fingers tap is not working

    I got my new Yoga Pro 3 and it is looking and working great except from the two fingers tap which does not. This is a real bummer since I use it all the time on my mac and Asus devices. Any tips? I would really appreciate if you can fix it.

    So avneraa, if I help you get two finger tap, you'll keep the Yoga 3 Pro? 
    Try this, but first back up your registry, and wear a helmet:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Synaptics>SynTP>TouchPadRMIHID2c>2FingerTapAction
    and:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>Synaptics>SynTP>Win8>2FingerTapAction
    Set Value data of both to 2 hexadecimal.
    Restart.
    Report back.
    Worked for me.
    Hope this helps!

  • Thinkpad yoga pro 15 w/3D sense

    In case someone was curious as how the Windows 10 upgrade went on a Yoga Pro 15 w/ 3DSense.
    Windows 10 installed the latest graphics card drivers for Win10 but installed a slightly older version Intel driver 10.18.14.4049 instead of 10.18.15.4248 for the 5500. I have no issues with the Intel driver so I'm keeping it this way for now since it's running fine. Probably install soon.
    Upgrade was pretty smooth. Only Driver hitches that I had to download after install were the 3D Sense camera driver (Camera was inoperable at first start of Win10 but no issues after installing Lenovo's Intel Win10 3D drivers) and lenovo Power Management Driver.
    All in all it was pretty trouble free from what I can tell so far!
    I first made sure to update as many drivers as I could from Lenovo site before the upgrade. I did have to force start the update in windows as it kept failing on it's own everyday like others have experienced.

    I did not update drivers that were solely for Windows 10. I did update all other drivers listed for Win10 and Win8 you know the same driver works for both. I made sure that all drivers for Win8 were updated and no I did not uninstall any software. I did turn off my antivirus but in hinesight I would recommend uninstalling your antivirus before upgrade and download the newest version for Win10. I ended up uninstalling mine after the upgrade to install the latest verion Kaspersky. Doh! Actually should have known better. It didn't screw with the install but Win10 right away said, this Kaspersky has limited use.  The one thing that freaked me out when I upgraded was the 3D camera was inoperable but I downlaod the driver firmware for windows 10 it's backup and working.  So far everythings running smooth still playing around with stuff when I have the time to see if there is any glitches but so far looks good. Edit: I did update the Bios to the newest version before upgrade and that actually stabilized some issues I had with my yoga before the upgrade, lol.

  • Yoga Pro 2 Fan noise tweak fix?

    Anyone we can tweak the EC for yoga pro 2 like was done for the yoga 13
    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Idea-Windows-based-Tablets-and/Yoga-13-Fan-Noise/td-p/902693/page/84

    The MBA (at least my old 2010 model (which was a total lemon)) definitely has a substantial fan which kicks in under load (gaming etc.). You don't see vents because they just use the crack along the hinge line to get the air in and out. Yes, this means there's less exposed vent area but you still have to worry about blocking it say you were using it on top of a blanket or something.
    Also if your MBA ingests, say, enough cat hair to block the fan intake, then good luck getting at it to clean it out. I had an old Dell gaming laptop that became unusable until I opened it up and pulled the 1/8" mat of cat fur off the face of the heat sinks.
    Over time the inside of your laptop can start to look like that furnace filter you haven't goten around to changing in a year or two, depending on how the airflow goes. Usually the air gets pulled through a heat sink and the outer face of the fins can collect stuff.
    Someday the power dissipation may be such that we can have completely sealed dust-proof machines, but until then environmental concerns over time are still a big pain.

  • Trouble with Adobe Reader Touch on Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 in tablet mode. Pdf shows up as blank pages.

    I have a Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 and when I change it to tablet mode and use the Adobe Reader Touch app, my pdf shows up as a blank page. I have installed other pdfs in the past and those show up fine. However, as of three days ago, whatever pdf I install shows up as blank on my screen. Is there a solution to fix this?

  • My iPhone 5 battery drain with in 3 hours when I use cellular network on and stand by time is only 2 and half day

    I Bought iphone 5 from USA  when I came to India I started it then I noticed the battery stand by time is only 3 days. And when I use cellular data then it is live only for 2 and half hour. I bought this phone in January till now I am having the same problem. I have done all the thing whatever the support center told me about restore and all stuff. After that they told me to visit any apple store but there are no store in India and I'm helpless. For my iPhone only I can't go abroad to that country where stores are. Before I used to believe that apple products are the best but this iPhone has just disappointed me. You know my friend making fun of my mobile because they are using samsung product.
    Pleade do some thing for me I have left only 2 month of warranty. other wise I will have to through this on dustbin because everywhere it is insulting me.

    Sorry, but the warranty for the iPhone is only valid in the country where you bought the device.
    In most of the cases 3rd party apps or settings caused the battery to drain faster than before the new software has been set up. Sometimes the mail app tried to connect to the mail server over and over again, deleting and setting up the mail account can solve this problem.
    In other cases social media apps did similar things to the phone.
    Here are some suggestions for getting back the normal battery life, maybe they are helpful for your problem with your iPhone 5 as well.

  • Every time my MacBook Pro is put to sleep, it will not connect to the internet when reopened unless diagnostic assistant is performed. Ridiculous!

    Every time my MacBook Pro is put to sleep, it will not connect to the internet upon reopening unless I perform diagnostic assistant.

    Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
    1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved. Make sure the box marked
    Remember networks this computer has joined
    is checked.
    2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading
    Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
    3. Reset the PRAM.
    4. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    5. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

    7. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
    8. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
    9. Reset the System Management Controller.
    10. Reinstall OS X.

  • Yoga Pro 2 - Display not recognized in windows (Driver or Hardware issue?)

    Out of warranty by a month!
    Yoga Pro 2 - 256gb, installed new wireless card a month ago. Windows 8.1
    The touchscreen still works while the screen is black.
    System restarted after sleep mode I think.
    The Lenovo logo is displayed, seems to load windows, but when windows loads (I don't see it load so this is an assumption) the screen blanks and the black light is on.
    I can connect an external monintor which will connect after a return from sleep mode(odd). Which then turns the backlight off.
    When on the external monitor the internal display is not even recognized by windows.
    When I boot in safe mode, the internal screen works fine with of course limited capability.
    I have reloaded display drivers from the support site.
    Right now my internal monitor is not recognized by windows and is dark, and I can use an external monitor.
    Anyone have any clues as to what my be going on? Hardware, driver etc???
    What information can I provide?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This is a pretty weird issue with conflicting observations.
    1) Screen works in Safe Mode but not in regular boot. (So, not hardware issue)
    2) Display works on external monitor in regular mode. (So, not drivers issue)
    Did you install the wireless card yourself? Did you unplug the display cable while installing the card?
    Could you re-open and check that all connections are good?
    Is the Wi-Fi card working well?
    I would also recommend a complete reset of the laptop to eliminate the possibility that this is a corrupt driver. You can use the NOVO button to reset your laptop. Make sure to make a backup on external drive for your personal files.

  • How do you get rid of 'empty' pre-roll time in logic pro 9?

    how do you get rid of the pre-roll time in logic pro 9?  
    My project's start time is 8-bars before any material, or tempos, or anything...  
    Can't move the start time back to ")" (zero)    STUCK!!  at -8
    The song now has 20 seconds of dead air time in a pre-roll.
    None of these worked or revealed anything...
    -tried making a new copy of song
    -looked into every track's file information looking for a spurious entry
    -tried deleting the time/space

    Hi
    Check for any Track Automation nodes in the "preroll'.

    Edit
    You should note that generally negative (or zero) project start numbers should be avoided at all cost: there are many peculiar behaviour problems associated with them.

  • Can't download files on Yoga Pro 2

    I've had my Yoga Pro 2 for a couple weeks.  It's been downloading fine until today when I was trying to download (using Firefox 31.0) an installer, I got an error that said the "*.msi.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."  This also happened when I tried to download (same browser) an mp3 file I had stored on my Box.com account.  I have been adjusting/disabling/uninstalling a lot of stuff.  I don't know if I did something that made this happen or if it's something in the browser. I don't think it's the browser, however, because I unsuccessfully tried the same process with IE, also.  Any idea what's causing this?

  • Is is possible to open event lists from different tracks at the same time in Logic Pro 9?

    Is it possible to open event lists from two difference tracks in an arrangement at the same time in Logic Pro 9?
    When I switch between tracks the event list swiches as well. Thanks in advance.

    If you deselect the litte chain link icon in the event list window, it will no longer follow your region selection and you can openas many as you need. Also you can select multiple regions and see the inthe SAME window if you select to show multiple regions, and you can have the notes shown in their respective track colors.
