T60 has slowed to a crawl- any HELP out there?
I updated a file a program yesterday which caused system to go blue screen. Uninstalled the program (Adobe trial) but now my system is extremely unresponsive and unusably slow. I've had unit for about a month (got used) and prev owner unfortunately did not activate sys restore function in XP, so I do not have a prev date to revert back to. I tried reloading system defaults in boot up (F9 key) but this did not solve issue. I do not have any recovery disks and from what I have found on web, apparently no way to create those...? Lenovo site says there should be an option in Thinkvantage program to select "Create Recovery Media" but I am not seeing that option. Not even sure if that is right path for fix.
Wife happens to have identical laptop with same OS if that is of any help. Thanks in advance for any replies!
if that person deleted the partition, then you can't create the recovery media. You would need to call Lenovo and obtain the discs from them.

Jin Li

iPhoto will not initiate. Downloaded update, but not change. Any help out there?
If you want help you’ll need to give us more information. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -
Using Seagate 2.0 Go Flex .... initial back up just stops at about 2gb .... no message, just stops! any help out there??
I've done the reformat thing .....On another post I saw the suggestion to download EasyFind and use that to search for any Seagate software on my Mac and then remove it.
I did that, removed anything that even mentioned Seagate and .... it worked!
It has been working fine all day and allowed me to shut down the computer without freezing.
So ...... so far so good.
If anyone is about to use a Seagate GoFlex then don't download any of their software!!! -

My email has been frozen for two days now. Any help out there? The little thing just keeps spinning and spinning.
It's searching for new mail and can't connect to the server apparently,
Quit the mail app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Try mail again.
Or you can try this as well. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -

My illustrator cs6 crashes when I use the gradient tool. I'm using a mac with mac os 10.9.3.
This driving me mad... any help out there?mr.roo,
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
