No Not really had some success though completely uninstalled graphics card software and reloaded new software also found out that it was the XP wireless software was doing something when connected to my school network so quick fix was turn wireless off then log into computer then turn wireless back on to resolve this cause I always forgot to turn it off I set up the lenovo wireless manager this worked and will only periodically do it (though I never really turn my computer off unless upgrading etc and sometimes it clogs up) another problem with mine was the battery could have been a issue cause I never turned it off and let it discharge (I wouldn't t recommend doing that unless battery is in warranty) first time I did discharge it it would not recharge so I may have had a faulty battery heard about the non-rechargeable coin battery maybe another member could confirm that? This could have been contributing to the issue
Hopes this gives u a variety of solutions to try help desk at lenovo had no idea when I told them about it and couldn't do much but tell me to update bios if it continues I suggest u ask it to be looked at and before warranty expires
Just received new 9 cell battery today will update to see if that was the issue

T60 won't resume windows xp properly after standby and hibernation - shows only blank desktop

Hi
I've got aT60 195CTO which is still just in warrantee that when I hibernate or standby the laptop and when i resume it'll ask for a password after the normal wait but then it'll just sit there show desktop background with no icons etc and periodically show hardrive activity but nothing happens, the touch pad pointer works ok but nothing else, even ctrl alt del failed to do anything, have downloaded and installed all xp updates inc sp3 as well as thinkvantage updates everytime this happens i'm forced to shut down computer by holding power button and restarting this is very annoying and always has the possibility of loosing work.
There appears to be two power management schemes in operation?, one running under xp and the other under thinkvantage - not sure if there is a conflict here? I have tried going into hibernation by closing the lid, fn-F12, xp's shutdown menu and entering hibernation from the thinkvantage menu all with same final result.
I have found a number of other postings on the net about this same problem but but apart from reloading the os which failed to solve the problem no other advice appears to be available.
would really appreciate any advice from anyone who knows how to solve this problem.
Regards
Paul

My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard (via my MacBookPro), either from the HD or DVD drive. Can't get it to run Hardware Test. Disk Utility says disk OK - files are there. What can I do?

My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard. I erased and re-installed by putting the iMac in Target Disk mode and usin my MacBookPro as the host. But after numerous attempts I still can't get it to boot either from the HD or DVD drive. I just get the white screen after the wheel stops spinning. I can't get it to run Hardware Test - just get the white screen. If I use Disk Utility via my MBP it says the disk appears OK. All the Snow Leopad files appear to have been installed. What can I do?

Perhaps you installed the wrong version OS X onto the iMac, you can't use the disk from another Mac.
clean the disk.
If it's not working then use this method to create a bootable 10.6 USB from the iMac machine specific 10.6 disk or the 10.6.3 retail disk on your other Mac, use it to boot the iMac with.

Opening a new window after computations and validations

Hi all
I want to open a new popUp window after a submit button is clicked but this window should open only after all the validations assosiated with this button are executed. Please note that, I want to open this window before the process associated with this button can fire
Any thoughts??

Heres what I did
I created a process called status bar to execute on submit and after computatuions and validations. This process contained the javascript to launch my new popup. This is the first process in after submit catagory. Logically it is supposed to execute before any other process but the problem is ...
The status bar process is not executing on submit after computations and validations.I tried changing its process point to before computations and validatuions. No problems on before computations and validations if I have some validations error on that page. But if everything is validated in this case as well, We don't get the status window.
If this is any help, here r the contents of the process in question :
htp.p('<script language=javascript>');
htp.p('function statusbar(page)');
htp.p('{');
htp.p('url = "http://flexfareserver:7777/pls/apex/f?p=101:" + page + ":&APP_SESSION.";');
htp.p('win = window.open(url,"","Scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=600,height=500");');
htp.p('}');
htp.p('statusbar(4)');
htp.p('</script>');
rout(11);
end
Notice the last statement in the process. This is a call to an external procedure called rout. This executes fine but just the htp.p is giving me problem, only in the particular case I spotted out.

Illustrator update won't install, even after uninstalling and retrying multiple times.

Illustrator update won't install, even after uninstalling (using the "Uninstall Adobe Illustrator CS6" app and retrying (using Adobe Application Manager}multiple times. Now I can't open AI CS6 at all.
The error message I get in Application Manager is:
"Application could not be found. Restore in case it was trashed/moved to a different volume. Reinstall the application otherwise (U44M1P2B)"
Help!

Can you please try installing the Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774.
If that doesn't work then the safest course would be to remove all Adobe Creative Software using the uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers. This should then remove the Adobe Application Manager folder also inside Utilities. Once the software is completely uninstalled and the Adobe Application Manager is removed then you should be able to reinstall from https://creative.adobe.com/.

External screen won't wake up after standby

Hey all,
Just bought a new 15" Macbook a few days but I have a serious problem. Every time I conntect it to my HP x2301 (also brand new) with a minidisplay > DVI cable and the Macbook goes to sleep the monitor won't take up after I wake up the Macbook.
NOTHING works except unplugging the cable of the monitor for a few seconds and then plugging it back in.

I have the new 15" Retina MacBook Pro connected to a Thunderbolt display using one of the TB ports. Earlier today, I discovered that I could connect a second older 24" Dell Monitor (2405FPW) I've been using for years by using the Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter I had on my old iMac, and plugging the Dell directly into the second Thunderbolt port on the MBP. All was well, until the displays went to sleep (I have my laptop configured to not sleep for 3 hours, but have the displays sleep after about 15 minutes). When I came back, moving the mouse and typing on the keyboard brought the Thunderbolt Display back to life, but the Dell monitor remained dark. Pressing buttons on the Dell had the message "In Power Save Mode - press key on the keyboard" appear. I tried turning the monitor off, back on, unplugging the DVI cable from the MBP, all sorts of things. It just would not wake up. When going to the System Preferences, the dell WAS recognized. As I plugged and unplugged the DVI cable from the second TB port, the "Arrangement" tab would appear and go away. So, it SEEMED like it was working.
Final solution for me: I selected "Sleep" from the Apple menu to actually put the entire machine to sleep. I then jiggled the mouse, and the machine woke up, along with BOTH monitors!
So, it appears that if just the monitors go to sleep, the "wake" signal is not making it to the Dell. If the ENTIRE MACHINE sleeps, they all wake together.
Hope that helps someone. I couldn't find an answer, so I found it trial-and-error.

Macbook Air freezes after standby and boots with Questionmark-folder

Hello Apple Community,
My Macbook Air 2011
i5
4gb ram
128ssd
Lion
started acting up recently. After waking it from sleep (on any of the 3 hibernate modes) it freezes(beachball, no reaction) as soon as I use an application.
Adding to that, everytime I boot it needs around 4-6 attempts to boot and not show the questionmark folder.
I did reset NVRAM and SMC, which brought very short relief, but after 2 or 3 boot sequenzes it stopped working again. I then repaired the disk in recovery mode which seemed to fix the boot problem. However, the sleep problem still persisted. I changed the hibernate setting from 2 to 1, because I assumed a harddrive problem. After that though, the mac did not wake at all after sleep and I had to force a restart. After that, the questionmark folder was back...
Does anyone have any input? I really dont know what to do, it seems both RAM and harddrive broke.However, when it boots properly it runs like always, no problems, what so ever.

Time to send it to Apple for repair...

Standby and Hibernation on Libretto

My libretto U100 will not wake up after going to standby or hibernation. Has anybody else had this problem, and if so any suggestion on how to rectify it?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Anthony
I have checked all options on my friends Libretto and everything works fine. I have also checked all options in Power saver tool under Setup Action tab (Manual setup).
Is your unit preinstalled with Toshiba recovery media?
Try to remove power saver tool and install it again.

Cannot Boot To Windows After Rescue And Recovery

I used the Rescue And Recovery disks (7 disks plus actually recovery cd) on my T42. I received the cd set direct from IBM. I've used the CDs in the past with no issues. This time after following the instructions and completing the restore, I cannot get the computer to boot to windows. It keeps going back to the Rescue And Recovery program. What can I do?

Refer to the following guide:
FAQ "How to use Recovery CD Disc Set".
"Also, if you get stuck after step 9 with Rescue and Recovery keeps on booting in a loop and not entering Windows then all you need to do is: GomJabbar wrote: While in Rescue and Recovery (with all CD's removed from your optical drive) you need to tell it to Restore Factory Contents. All the CD's really do is install Rescue and Recovery and the files needed to Restore Windows and the original Factory software."

IMac Won't Boot - Won't Repair - Even after Erase and Install

One day my iMac acts weird. Apps bounce but don't open. I restart. I get greyscreen and spinning gear for 1.5 hours. Uh-oh.
Disk Utility run from OS X disk: cannot repair - "Invalid Node Structure" and "Invalid Key Length" - multiple instances.
So I erase volume and install. All goes fine. Install Tiger. Use upgrade to Leopard disk. Leopard boots and apps work (I try Safari and web connects) so I do software update thinking it's fixed.
Huge software update to 10.5.7 plus sundry others. After update reports "Could not install updates" - then it lists a load of updates (keynote, iwork etc) that it cant install.
Say's it'll restart. You guessed it: grey screen and spinning gear for 1.5 hours. Won't boot after forced restart either.
Run disk utility from OS X disk again: same errors, "node"; "key length" etc.
What now? Is 10.5.7 the problem? I have apple care so no major sweat but I need to get this thing operating baby.
PS - my boot camp partition that I have had for months and months still boots. So the HD isn't totally dead. At least can rule that out.

Suggest you do the following:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives.
4. Select the OS X volume (sub-entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
See if this fixes the problem. If it doesn't then there is some corruption in the directory block that reformatting or zeroing is just not able to fix. In such a case the resolution would be to repartition the drive from scratch. However, this will result in the loss of the Boot Camp partition as well.
Unless your Leopard disc is an upgrade-only disc, then you can install Leopard directly - no need to install Tiger first.

Premiere Elements 8 won't do anything after opening - and after loading contents disk

Similar to an earlier thread, ie: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3058854#3058854 I couldn't get Premiere Elements to work - but this was back in July and I hadn't found the forums at that point, getting baffling lost trying to find anything at all useful on the Adobe website.
Premiere Elements 8 did originally display an error message if you tried to open a project, ie I managed to open an existing project or create a new one, but the program only ever showed a blank screen and no menu options could be selected so these projects were empty. This error message appeared if I tried to open a project I'd just created with premiere elements 8. It didn't even seem to like its own files.
It's a brand new pc, so it's never had any other versions of premiere on it. It came from Dell preloaded with premiere/photoshop elements but only the latter works.
Initially I spent hours trying to get this to work, searching for clues on the Adobe website, but then other pressing things have intervened and I gave up on it until today.
About the last thing I did was to download a trial version and install that and I entered my full version registration number when doing this. Still nada and I gave up.
Well today I had another go. If I opened my empty project from the organiser I got a blank screen, then I tried again from within Premiere. I also tried opening it as a new project giving it the same name as the original. Surprise, surprise, it worked and the monitor and timeline, etc, appeared. However it was temperamental and if I closed the program down I seemed to have to open it a few times in Premiere (not the organiser that never seemed to work) before the workspace appeared.
I should have thought myself lucky and left things like this. When the program started it reminded me that the stuff on the contents disk wasn't loaded. I decided to load it up too but in the process I got an error message. I think it said something about Framework 4 being loaded? by user system and that this needed to be changed. I let it go ahead and do this and left all the contents loading up. Takes a long time doesn't it? Needless to say this isn't the first time I've done this.
Well it was after this that I arrived back at the blank screen, nothing opening up at all just as it was when I started - a little loading project window appears, the blue progress line gets to 100%, but the application screen remains grey and none of the menu options can be selected. I tried loading the 8.01 patch but this made no difference.
Has anyone got any clues on this?
It's a Dell Studio 15, i5, 4Gb RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate, 400 Gb free space.

There may be some clue in that while I was briefly able to use the application I added a few picture files and put them on the timeline.
Tidying up the pictures on the pc into one folder meant that one of these was no longer where Premiere Elements 8 expected it to be and on one of my trys at getting it to run again (with the same multiple attempts at opening a project as before) it did actually display a dialog asking for the missing file and then wonder of wonders the monitor window, timeline, etc, appeared as before.
This meant that the menus are accessible at present and so I've been able to check the background rendering preference and it is set to off.
Once I close the application down again I'm sure it's going to behave as before, ie blank screen again. True enough just tried this and it's back to blank screen mode. I didn't save the project so the files are still 'missing'.
BTW I've already turned off Autoanalyse in the Organiser.

Macbook Pro won't start up after removing and putting back battery

One week ago I spilled two drops (literally) of water on the drag pad of my MacBook Pro (model A1278). Some of this water went down the top edge of the drag pad. Since this happened, the cursor as either not been been responding at all to my drag pad, or it has been behaving very eratically, as well as this, over the last couple of months since buying this MacBook, there has been an abnormal amount of dust in the air in the house due to some building work going on here. This being so, I decided to follow a video tutorial in you tube on how to remove and clean the drag pad. This involved getting access to the laptop by unscrewing the back, unscrewing and disconnecting the battery, then unscrewing and disconnecting the drag pad, so this it could be handled and cleaned. I followed the video to the letter, taking great care. I cleaned the drag pad as instructed, and replaced it. I did the same thing with the battery. All screws and the two simple 'plug in' connections for both the drag pad and battery have been replaced smoothly and exactly as I found them. but after putting the back panel on the MacBook, it will not turn on. It will not power up, either by the battery alone, or by using the mains power lead. There is a green light showing on the power lead input, but it is nowhere near as bright as it usually is. So I have gone from having a poorly functioning drag pad, to now having a MacBook Pro which won't even turn on! I have no idea what has happened. Please can anyone help? Thanks.

So are you saying that it will not boot from the OSX installation disk?
It might be worth trying an SMC reset as described here:

How to auto close finder window after drag and drop?

In Tiger, I would file away items on my desktop my dragging them to the hard drive and then digging down to the appropriate folder. The finder window would then close automatically after dropping the file. Is there a setting in Snow Leopard that will enable similar functionality? Whenever I complete a drag and drop now the finder window just stays open, which isn't a huge issue, but I'd still like to change it. Thanks!
