Suitable styluses for my laptop

So i got a new laptop for my birthday, and this laptop has a touch screen, therefore as the title says I would like to see it's possible to get a stylus for mu computer or not, and if so what are so recommended ones? I would like to use it for drawing mostly so something very fine point would be great

Hi @CielLibre ,
What is the exact model of your laptop? Certain models are configured to work with an "active" stylus or pen, which would have a finer tip, more functionality, and require batteries.  Most models probably won't work with a pen like that, though.
I've been using an Adonit Jot Pro a bit and I really like it -- it gives you a fine-tipped pen for detail work, but there's a little clear plastic disc where it makes contact with the screen (because a larger surface area is needed to register the touch -- a fine-tipped passive stylus won't work, unfortunately). It's a huge improvement over the big clunky rubber-tip styluses.

  • Stylus for Lenovo Flex 2 14"

    Hello.
    I've just bought a Lenovo Flex 2 14" with Full HD screen (1920x1080).
    I'm interested in using a digital pen (stylus) for writing and drawing.
    Anybody has found a good stylus for this laptop? I have one with a thick rubber point, and the precision is very poor, the lines when I'm drawing always are discontinuous instead of straight.
    Thank you in advance, best regards

    Hi again,
    As an update - I had a look to see if a 42mm ssd would fit. Unfortunately it does not. Some measuring and digging around indicates that is a 30mm (2230) slot - A/E keys. Nobody yet sell an ssd of this size.
    The only hope that I can see of is an extender such as the one here: http://www.amazon.com/P12S-P12F-M-2-NGFF-Extender-Board/dp/B00IPOT3O2. It looks like there is enough free space inside to take it, though uncertain.
    This would however require a PCI-e based ssd (the 2242 ones are usually sata ones), and based on people's experiences of upgrading the wifi, we'll be at the mercy of the hardware whitelist (as it's pci-e based). It looks like most pcie m.2 ssd's are 2280 size or bigger too, which might be pushing the room.
    Given the cost of the adaptor and right size/type ssd, the total cost is close to a decent 500GB 2.5" SSD, so I don't think I'll be attempting it. Plus I'd still lose the built in wifi
    Have a happy new year!

  • How do I make my all-in-one HP printer wireless for my laptop?

    I have a HP Photosmart C7250 All-in-One printer.  Just bought a HP Pavilion dv6-6113ci Laptop.  I have a Netgear modem.  Instructions in book to convert to wireless is in Greek to me.  Is there an easy fix to making my printer wireless??

  • Stylus For My MacBook Pro

    Hey all, for now I can't afford a drawing tablet so I was wondering if anyone could suggest the best stylus for my MacBook Pro so that I could perform some simple drawings?
    Thanks,
    Crayton

    You know, I really didn't look around as hard as I thought I did. Actually I just saw a few posts here and there talking about how much these things are and it scared me a way. Therefore, you are right, these are within my budget. What I am going to be using them for is for some fairly simple graphics for animating some web commercials for a company that I will be working with. They want simple animation, but trying to work it with my mouse or finger is just stupid (for me). Therefore I thought I go for a stylus that I could draw with on my laptop. But if there is a pad and stylus that is within those prices then I would go for that. Thank you by the way.
    Based on the limited details that I have given you, do you think they will do the trick? (I'm trying to think of an example to give you of what they are thinking of).......have you seen those UPS commercials that the dude is drawing on the white wall? Those are very simple graphics, and that is about what they are looking for. My main goal is that I am able to create clean lines. Do you know what I mean?
    Either way thank you.
    Also, thanks to you other guys and your posts, on my behalf. To answer one of the earlier posts, I was only wanting the stylus to be used on the built-in tablet on my MacBook. Is that what you were asking?
    Thanks again guys,
    Crayton

  • System Requirements for my laptop

    My laptop is windows 8.1, intel core i5 1.70 Ghz, 64 bit, 4GB ram.
    are these system requirements enough, and which version/type of photoshop is suitable for my laptop??

    Mustafa,
    Welcome to the forum.
    Along with the links provided, the one thing that jumps out at me is that you are running a 64-bit OS, with only 4GB RAM installed. That is just enough to run the OS, with little left over for programs. I would research bumping UP the RAM, to at least 8GB, or even more, if the laptop can handle it.
    Good luck,

  • Help with enabling TPM in Task Sequence for Dell Laptops

    Hi there,
    I would appreciate some advice on creating a task sequence for Win8.1 with TPM enabling for Dell laptops; I have BitLocker set up manually with a Group policy, but want to have TPM enabled in the task sequence. I have read older posts on sites such as windows
    noob, but can't see how to reference the CCTK and get TPM going for win8.1 in a SCCM2012 environment. 
    Obviously I haven't created this before so any help would be appreciated; I have noticed when I try to import my CCTK configurations into SCCM as it isn't a zip file I cannot do it.

    Luckily Dell wrote a whitepaper about that subject, see:

  • I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon.  How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?

    I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon.  How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?  Will the new one become less effective if it sits around too long?

    How much capacity is remaining on your current battery?
    Check your power status
    From the  menu: Hold OPTION and click System Information... èHardware è Power
    Copy and Paste in your reply.
    The new battery will become less effective if you store it in a hot or humid environment. It should be stored at room temperature (22 C).
    Long term storage (6 months):
    Apple recommends that you store the battery with a 50% charge. If you store a battery when it’s fully discharged, it could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding any charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may experience some loss of battery capacity, meaning it will have a shorter life.

  • How do I use my 8300 as a modem for my laptop

    Hi all,
    I'm new to this forum. This is my first post...
    I'm trying to set up my 8300 smartphone to be used as a tethered modem for my laptop to be able to get the full internet content anywhere with in cell coverage.
    Question 1: 
    I got instructions from the 'BlackBerry HELP' icon on the phone (my question was: how do i use my device as a modem) which seemed very complete. The modem is dial-up and when I try to connect I get Error 718 (basically a timeout error). 
    Can anyone help? 
    Question 2:
    Since this uses dial-up, would I be using my cell phone minutes?
    Thank you, Lar

  • How do I use my airport express as my default audio for a laptop?

    I can stream music from iTunes to our airport exoress no problem, but I'd like to be able to use the speakers connected to our Airport Express as the default audio output for my MacBook Pro - i.e for all sounds, aps, etc.  This would allow me to wirelessly stream music or any other audio (not just iTunes) and then have it played through the speakers.  I've googled and looked here, but cannot seem to find a clear cut answer that isn't two plus years old in all the clutter.
    Thank you in advance.

    The bottom line is that you will need an application like Airfoil for Mac to be able to stream any audio source on your Mac to the AirPort Express.

  • I have GarageBand for iPad 2 and noticed that there are far fewer loops for iPad than for apple laptops. Is there a library available of apple loops? I haven't been able to find any if there are. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Update: An Apple rep called me today to update the status of my return. I was told that the replacements for the BLACK iPad 2's was still another 3 weeks out (at least) so they offered me a brand new WHITE 16GB iPad 2. I could have that or continue waiting. I opted to go ahead and accept the offer of a new white one. Worst case scenario if I don't like the white one I have buddy that just bought a 16GB black one that he would be willing to swap it.

  • PCMCIA firewire card for G4 laptop (follow-up to excessive timecode breaks)

    1.) It was recommended that I get a new firewire bus to resolve excessive timecode breaks when importing from a Canon camcorder to an external hard drive. I've been reading through posts on this topic...and saw getting a new firewire port mentioned a few times... How come when I called Apple to check on the cost of a new firewire card for my laptop Powerbook G4, I was told that nothing could be added without replacing the entire logic board? Am I missing something? I didn't say "PCMCIA firewire drive" - is that something special? Any idea of the cost to purchase and install?
    2.) Apple recommended just capturing to my internal hard drive, and transfering the projects. Apart from this being cumbersome... I need a little verification: if I transfer PROJECT X to my external hard drive, then do I also need to transfer my Audio Render, Autosave,Capture Scratch, Render, Thumbnail, and Waveform folders? [I realize this is basic, but I'm wary of losing the information the project needs and getting it all messed up]

    pcmcia is an card slot. If you have a 12" PB you may not have one.
    If you have a pcmcia slot, buy the card. Slide the card into your computer and start up. Put the camcorder on the card and your fw drive on the port built-in to your computer. Even if this does not solve the timecode issues, it will save you other headaches in the future.
    Question. Does capturing to your internal drive solve the timecode issues you are having?
    I disagree with the advice of capturing to your internal drive and transfering the project after the fact. There are a bunch of reasons why, and all of them are qualified, so I hesitate to go further until I know whether or not capturing to the internal drive is making your timecode headaches go away.
    I suspect capturing to the internal drive will not help the timecode issues which will make the whole point moot. But hopefully I'm wrong :>
    Tom
    ps
    When you talk to representatives from Apple, you have to be conscious that if they are not specialists in the area you are focused on their advice may be based on general recommendations from an IT or home user perspective. There is a difference between talking to a sales person on the floor of the Apple Store and someone from the Genius Bar. And the person at the Genius Bar may have a tremendous background in network installations, but never have opened FCP. Or you might get lucky and get a FCP savvy genius, who would be a bit weak when talking about some other area.
    This is not a knock, just a reality. It is difficult to be deeply conversant with even one area. It is not realistic for the generalists you usually deal with to know the best answers to very specific questions.
    I'm working toward becoming a certified trainer with FCP and it is not easy or cheap to become an expert at this one application, never mind all the possible applications and hardware combinations for wildly different needs and budgets.

  • Setup Problem HP6830 using Hotspot for Printer & Laptop

    I have a TMobile Hotspot that gives me internet access for my laptop.I have a HP Officejet Pro that I just got and I'm trying to set it up on the Hotspot network.I've installed (via disk) the HP Software on my Toshiba Coimputer.I've gone through the setup process on the printer and it shows I'm connected to the Hotspot Network.When I try to go through the setup process on the computer it says it can't find that printer.I've checked - over and over again - the IP, and printed everything out (Config Page & Network TestResults) on the Printer, and it indicates everything is OK. My question is - Why can't my computer find the computer (they're both on the same Hotspot Network)?I don't have a USB Cable right now, and I'm trying to set it up wirelessly.  Any suggestion about what I might have missed?  Any help would be appreciated

    Hey ,  Welcome to the HP Support Forum.  I understand you're encountering some setup issues when using your HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One Printer with a mobile hot spot.  I would like to assist you with this.   In my experience, mobile hotspots are hit and miss when used to support printers' wireless connections, even when the setup's are completed with diligence and care on the part of the user.  This caveat aside, as there are no official documents from HP on how to troubleshoot this particular issue, I recommend  toggling airplane mode on your T-Mobile device before restoring the hotspot connection.  Try the printer to laptop connection via the software as before, once you've confirmed the laptop's connected to the hotspot.  If this approach falls short, you could try the alternative and HP supported wireless direct setup method.  Here's how: From your printer's front panel touch the Wireless Direct icon ()Turn Wireless Direct OnFrom here you can choose to have it enabled with Security On or Off.  If you turn Security On, make a note of the passcode (it'll come in handy later).To learn how to complete the setup on your computer and any other mobile devices, click here for more instructions. Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  If I have helped you resolve the issue, feel free to give me a virtual high-five by clicking the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and clicking to accept this solution. Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.  Have a great day!

  • How to create suitable aggregates for queries on multiprovider ?

    hi all,
    goal reduce db time of query and improve performance
    i have queries on a multicube. I have 5 cubes under the multiprovider. I having performance issue with one of the cubes.  it  had
    high slection/transfer ratio. The same cube had high 94% DB TIme. All the BW and DB indexes and stats are green. I chose
    the path of aggregates. when i tried suggest from proposal it is giving me query time and date range and i gave last
    3 days and  query time 150 sec. it is suggesting huge number of aggregates like 150 of them and not getting reduced much
    when i tried optimize funcitonality.
    The faulty cube had nearly 9 million records and 4 years of data
    1. generally how many aggregates do we need to create on a cube?
    2. how do i use propose from last navigation? it is not creating any aggregates
    3. is there a way for system to propose less number of aggregates?
    4. if nothing works i want to cut the volume of the aggregates base on years or quarters. how do i do that?
    i created with time charactersitic 0calquarter and dragged in ocal day and 0calmonth. activated and filled in ..but
    query is not hitting it when i do a monthly selection. i tried bringing in all the other dimensions...except line item
    dimenisons....no use ...it  is not hitting the manual aggregates in RSRT.the slection on 0calquarter is * .
    5. should i change it to fixed value and bring in the line items too and create it?
    6. I wanted to try propose aggregate from query option..but  my query is on multiprovider...and not able to copy it to cube..
    plz help me how to find the suitable aggregates for query on multiprovider
    7. should i create any new indexes on the cube using the chractrestics in the where condiotion of select statment...but in
    that case, select statement changes with drill down.......how do i handle it ?
    8. how will i make sure the aggregates work for all queries run time imporvement?
    9. plz suggest other approaches if any with procedures
    this is a urgent problem plz help...
    <b>thanks in advance
    points will be assigned for inputs</b>

    1. generally how many aggregates do we need to create on a cube?
    it depends on your specific needs, you can need none or several.
    2. how do i use propose from last navigation? it is not creating any aggregates
    Can you elaborate?
    3. is there a way for system to propose less number of aggregates?
    In any of the menus of screen for creating aggregates you have an option for sytem propose aggregates for one specific queries i am not sure it worked with multicubes.
    4. if nothing works i want to cut the volume of the aggregates base on years or quarters. how do i do that?
    You should delete 0calday from aggregates in order to accumulate data for any greater time unit. Other solution for times is to study try to do a partition in cube.
    5. should i change it to fixed value and bring in the line items too and create it?
    Can you elaborate?
    6. I wanted to try propose aggregate from query option..but my query is on multiprovider...and not able to copy it to cube..
    Answered before, maybe you can create a query only with data on that cube that appears in multicube query in order to proposal any aggregate in thath cube.
    7. should i create any new indexes on the cube using the chractrestics in the where condiotion of select statment...but in
    that case, select statement changes with drill down.......how do i handle it ?
    is not recomendable create new indexes in multidemensional structures. Try avoid selections for navigational attributes, if necesary add navigate attributte as dimension attributes, put filters in filter section in BEX.
    8. how will i make sure the aggregates work for all queries run time imporvement?
    try transaction st03
    9. plz suggest other approaches if any with procedures
    Some other approches yet answering
    Good luck

  • Can N200 battery be used for N100 laptop

    Hi,
    One of Lenovo resellers suggested that N200 battery can be used for N100 laptop as well. However, N200 one is 11V and N100 one is 10.8V. Otherwise it fits in the laptop design.
    Any recommendations or suggestions from experts?

    Yes, you can with with Airfoil.
    However, for watching DVDs, you'll want to use VLC in concert with Airfoil so that you can compensate for the audio delay that will occur otherwise. Open Airfoil and select VLC as the app whose audio should go to the Express. Click on the little button next to the speaker name and VLC will automatically open.
    Then open the VLC preferences, select Audio in the list, and click on the Advanced checkbox at the bottom of the preferences window. Enter a negative number of milliseconds in the "Audio desynchronization compensation" field to advance the audio ahead of the video, which will offset the audio delay. Start with -3000 (3 seconds) and you'll probably have to tweak it from there. Then open the DVD in VLC and start it playing.
    Yes, this is a pain in the butt, but it's the nature of streaming audio: the audio stream must be prebuffered for a few seconds to keep variations in the data transfer rate from interrupting the audio.
