T61 not automatically switching power settings

I have a T61 running Windows XP SP3 with Power Manager version 1.51a.
In my power schemes, I have set up different display brightness levels for BatterySettings and AC Settings.  However, when I unplug my AC adapter, I do not see the brightness dim at all.
If, after unplugging or plugging in, I re-select my Power Scheme and Apply, the brightness is correctly adjusted.
The Thinkpad PM Service is started, as is the Power Manager DBC Service.
I think I am missing something farily simple that is not causing the power manager service to detect and switch modes.

  • My iphone does not automatically switch off the display light when locked. How do I fix this?

    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.2 software.
    My iPhone does not automatically switch off the display light when it is locked. Therefore, if I get an e-mail/text message/pop-up from other application, the light just stays on, which obviously drains my battery.
    The problem just started yesterday, and it has been a couple of days since I updated the software, so I wouldn't think the software update is the problem.
    I have tried restarting the phone (using home and lock button), but that did not work.
    Something else that seems weird is that once in a while, a blue beam rolls over the screen from one side to the other. I don't know why it does this, and have no idea whether this is related to the display light issue.
    I hope someone is able to help by telling me what to do in order to get my phone to act normal again.
    Thank you x

    Restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. You will not lose any data.

  • My devices not automatically switching between Airport Extreme and Airport Express in extended network

    I have setup an extended network in my home using an Airport Extreme and an Airport Express. The Extreme is connected directly to the FiOS modem and the Express is being used as the extender. The nework is setup fine, but my devices (MBA, iPhone, iPad) are not switching base stations when the signal becomes poor on the one it's connected to. For example, I am upstairs with my MBA and a great signal as I am connected to the Express. When I move downstairs to where the Extreme is setup, the Wi-Fi connection becomes poor even though I am litterally sitting next to the Extreme. To force it to connect to the Extreme, I need to shutoff the Wi-Fi on the MBA and turn back on. At this point, the MBA will connect to the Extreme with a excellent signal.
    Any thoughts on why the MBA is not automatically switching?
    Thanks for the help!
    Brian

    The first troubleshooting step for any kind of network "issue" is a complete power cycle of the network. This gives everything a "fresh start" with new connections.
    Power off the entire network.....all devices....in any order you want
    Wait a minute or two
    Start the modem/router first, and let it run a full minute
    Start the AirPort Extreme next and let it run a full minute
    Keep starting devices one at a time about a minute apart until the entire network is back up
    Check the network again with the MBA and report on your results
    Do not worry about the iPhone and iPad....they are pretty much hopeless as far as automatically switching from one access point to another....but the MBA should if it is working correctly.

  • External and internal mikes are not automatically switching over either recording or on voice calls

    My laptop model name is HP Pavilion dv4-1100ea which is shipped with Vista Home premium 32 bits and has got service pack 1.
    Restored the laptop to factory setting since then I am having the following problems; I had the same problem when my laptop was brand new and whenever I reset the laptop to factory setting I get the following problems:
    1. External and internal mikes are not automatically switching over either in middle of the recording using sound recorder or while the call in progress on voice calls (skype):
       Using the sound recorder if I start recording the sound with external  mike  and in-between  recording if I  switchover from external mike to inbuilt mike and later on when I play back I can only hear the sound  up till where I used the external mike during recording, after the switchover to inbuilt mike I cant hear any sound.
       But if I start the recording with inbuilt mike and in between recording  if I plug in  the external mike and later on when I play back I can only hear the sound up till where I used the inbuilt mike during recording , after the switchover to external mike I cant hear any sound.
       So in brief both my external and internal mikes are working fine, only problem is that if I start recording (using sound recorder) or voice call with one specific mike, I have to continue with it till the end. I can’t switchover to another mike in between the conversation (voice call) or recording, if I do so, I have to select the mike manually in chat software but while recording I cant even select manually because in laptop, it takes the mike whichever is in current use as default mike in recording tab(sound window). The green tick automatically (in recording device tab) switches over according to the use of mike. Though the green tick in the recording tab is switching over automatically according to use of mikes, its not picking up the sound after switch over during recording.
    2. And also when I click on recording device tab in sound window and plug in external mike, though the green tick automatically switchovers from internal to external mike, while I speak both internal and external mikes volume meter respond to the sound inputs by rising and falling but if I take out external mike, green tick goes to internal mike and when I speak only internal mike volume meter respond to sound rising up and down not the external mike.
    To resolve the issue I have tried following steps with no luck:
    1.I have checked the mikes(internal and external) properties, the both mike shows to be enabled in general tab, in level tab the volume is set to 100 and in advanced tab , all options are selected.
    2. In device manager I have got only one audio driver named as “IDT High definition Audio CODEC”. I have uninstalled the audio driver and reinstalled it using scan for hardware option
    3. Uninstalled the audio driver in device manager and reinstalled the audio driver using recovery manager > advanced option> hardware driver re-installation.
    3. I have updated the BIOS(Insyde F.65, 12/02/2010).
    4. I tried to update the audio driver using below link but things went more worse so I did system restore (not factory setting though).

    Sounds like you need to upgrade to the iPhone 5s
    The 5s has Touch ID
    You can unlock your phone with your finger instead of typing in a key code
    No swiping to unlock either, just touch the home button
    You can enrol multiple fingers as well
    Here is a video of it in action
    http://www.apple.com/iphone-5s/videos/#video-touch
    Or wait and see what iPhone 6 has to offer
    That being said, as desiel vdub posted if the phone is up to your face, the proximity sensor should turn the screen off
    And when you lower the phone turn it back on again
    Not sure about the phone locking when your on a call doesn't sound right

  • Pulseaudio not automatically switching between output devices

    I am using a laptop and I have 3 different output devices on my machine. I have 2 regular output jacks, and a speaker. Whenever I plug-in a headset, pulseaudio happily keeps sending all audio to the speakers. I then have to open pavucontrol and manually switch my output device. This bug does not occur on OpenSUSE or Ubuntu.
    Does anyone have any idea about how to fix this?
    Mu pulseaudio configuration files are untouched:
    /etc/pulse/client:conf http://pastie.org/private/t6sjcou1w90dcey73zpveg

  • Does not automatically switch to space when app is selected

    In reality this is not a new issue   been pretty much always this way
    Running 10.10.3 on Min with 16 g RAM
    They article OS X Yosemite: Work in multiple spaces    say that once i configure mission control when I select an App  I will be automatically switched to the space/desktop  (They can't seem to keep their terminology consistent ) which i have assigned that app to   (yes the options are set for that app to open in specified desktop and monitor)  Ok when I select that or any assigned app The app comes up in the upper tool bar  but the desktop does not change .   I must manually switch the desktop
    PITA

    System Preferences/Mission Control - is the second box down checked?

  • Sometimes when downloading a .pdf file I'm not automatically switched to Acrobat reader, but the screen becomes white with a red borderline left and upper, IE doesn't have this problem

    The screen shows the borders of the original site. Beneath the Mozilla workbar the screen becomes white, on the left and upper side there appears a thin red line. Nothing is downloaded, clicking the right mouse button doesn't solve the problem. It doesn't happen everytime I try to load a .pdf file. When I go to the same site using Internet Explorer I do not encouter the same problem, swiching to Acrobat Reader or FoxIt is immediate.

    To enable this right you need Acrobat, not the free Reader.
    However, starting from Reader X it is possible to add simple markups to any file, unless it has been specifically disallowed by the creator of the file.

  • Wicd does not automatically connect to eth0

    Wicd works fine using my wireless network. It does not automatically connect to eth0 when I plug in a cable, but I can connect to it by pressing connect manually.
    I already have ethtool installed (do I need to run ethtool as a daemon???)

    stabele wrote:I have two maybe naive question:
    1)are you connected to wireless network before you plug in ethernet cable? If yes, than wicd does not automatically switch to wired network. Maybe you can get it done by custom scripts wicd support for each connection, but I never used this thing in wicd.
    2) do you have disabled in rc.cong interfaces you want wicd to manage INTERFACES=(!eth0 !wlan0) ?
    Thanks for your answers, 1) no I'm not connected to wireless, and 2) eth0 is disabled.
    I found out it works fine if I connect eth0 manually and then I can remove and plugin the cable all I want and it automatically connects. This is because dhcpcd is already running for eth0 so maybe I should run dhcpcd eth0 in a boot script (although I think wicd should do this).

  • Since upgrading Iphone to iOS 5.1.1 it does not automatically use wifi internet when wifi is available. It has been draining my mobile data. I can only manually change settings with cellular data everytime I get home. Any other solutions?

    Since upgrading Iphone to iOS 5.1.1 it does not automatically divert to my wi-fi internet when wifi is available in my home. It has been draining my mobile data I  now have very high bills from my mobile carrier for high data usage. I can only manually change settings in the Network and turn cellular data on and off everytime I get home and leave the home. This is very frustrating as it wasn't a  problem until the upgrade. I have spoken to a few people that this has happened to. Has anyone found this problem and does anyone have other solutions?

    Please disregard this question. I'll submit a shorter and more direct question. Thanks.

    Perhaps you are loading a template that has a text block already on it.
    You might try the blank template option and set that as your go to template in your preferences

  • How do i stop it automatically switching to new tab, the setting is not ticked in options. This is annoying when opening several tabs.

    Although I do not have 'switch to new tab immmediately' ticked, when I ask to open in new tab it switches immediately. This is a problem as I open several tabs from my main page and don't want to go to them at once, I'll look at them in order as I need them. Since an update I now have it switching to the opened tab, and I have to keep flicking back to the main tab. It's giving me repetitive strain problems having to keep clicking the mouse more than necessary. It's an option in the settings, I'd like it to rmain that way. I seriously don't want to keep having to go back to my main page every time I want to open a new tab. Could you make it as it was before please, it was super then. Many thanks in advance. :-)

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
