  • Hi, how to use touch pad (thinkPad T61) to scroll pages up/down, left/right? do I need any drivers?

    Hi, how to use touch pad (thinkPad T61) to scroll pages up/down, left/right? do I need any drivers?

    Hi daneeo, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
    In the Control Panel for your Mouse there should be an UltraNav tab. Under that tab are all the settings for the touchpad. Check to make sure scrolling is enabled.
    If you do not see an UltraNav tab in the Mouse Control Panel, download and install the UltraNav driver and utility:

  • HT1553 I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. Can I do this without a DVD version of the OS, and can I restore only specific things like iPhoto and iTunes libraries from Time Machine backup.

    I want to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. Can I do this without a DVD version of the OS, and can I restore only specific things like iPhoto and iTunes libraries from Time Machine backup.

    Mountain Lion is only available as a download, so there is no DVD to purchase. What you can do is download ML and then stop it from installing as soon as it's on your drive. From there you can make your own bootable ML flash drive.
    When your purchase and download Mountain Lion, it will end up in the Applications folder and automatically want to install. Press Command+Q to stop the install and exit. The installer will remain on the hard drive.
    1) Right click on the installer and choose "Show Package Contents".
    2) A folder will open on the desktop. Drill down to Contents > SharedSupport and double click the disk image InstallESD.dmg to mount it on the desktop.
    3) From here you can either burn a DVD, or copy the contents to a flash drive. Personally, I would strongly suggest using an 8 GB flash drive formatted as Mac OS Extended. You will be able to boot to it in about 30 seconds instead of at least 10 minutes off of a DVD, and it will install MUCH faster. Make sure the flash drive is empty, or you've copied anything off it it you need as it will need to be erased.
    4) Don't just drag and drop the contents you see in the open disk image to the flash drive. It won't boot that way as it will be missing some hidden files. Open Disk Utility. You will something similar to this:
    5) To accomplish the above, highlight either the flash drive's single partition (as I did), or the item at the bottom (Mac OS X Install ESD), which is what you will see with the Lion disk image mounted. It doesn't matter which one you pick. You'll then have the option to select the Restore tab towards the upper right. Drag and drop from the left column into the Source and Destination fields as shown above. If you've already erased the flash drive, you can uncheck the box. Click the Restore button.
    You've just made your own bootable Mountain Lion USB Flash drive installer. Once you boot to the flash drive, run Disk Utility first to erase the drive you want Mountain Lion on, then continue with the install.
    As far as restoring your iPhone and iTunes libraries, I couldn't tell you. So I wouldn't do any of the above until someone else chimes in with a way to do that after a clean install of ML.

  • How can I stop Firefox from asking me over and over (even on pages with no flash content) to install Flash? I don't want Flash installed and this stupid pop-up.

    So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
    Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
    Please attach a screenshot of the popup
    * [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.

  • I have over 50 gigs of music on iTunes; can I store only some on my laptop and the rest on a backup HDD?

    I have over 50 gigs of music on iTunes; can I store only some on my laptop and the rest on a backup HDD?

    Just copy the music from one computer to another over your network or via a USB flash drive.
    If you are in the US, have the latest version of iTunes (10.3) and the media was purchased via the iTunes store, you can redownload all the content via iTunes.

  • Can you stop a restore in the middle?

    Can you stop a restore in the middle on the Iphone 5?

    No. If you attempt to do so, you will probably only result in a non-functional iPhone and will have to begin the restore from scratch.

  • Photos tells me it is connecting to Library for shared photos. It's been saying this for about ten hours. I can't stop it from searching or get it to do anything else. I can go back to my photos but I can't get Photos to find the shared items.

    Be sure Safari does not have the Block Pop-Up Windows preference set.
    Where I work now there are several unencrypted VLANs that require authentication, and Safari promptly pops up a window for me to register every time.

  • TS1538 Every time I want to sync my iphone to itunes I have to uninstall and reinstall itunes on my pc. It will only ever find the phone once, then I need to go through this all over again.

    Every time I want to sync my iphone to itunes I have to uninstall and reinstall itunes on my pc. It will only ever find the phone once, then I need to go through this all over again.
    How can I solve this?

    You'll have to do it by process of elimination. Sign into the iTunes Store through the App Store app, go to the Purchased section, and look at the list of apps purchased through your own Apple ID. Anything on your iPhone not in that list isn't yours and should be deleted. The same process would apply to content from the iTunes Store.
    Or you can just restore the iPhone from your most recent backup and then redownload everything from the iTunes Store. But if you have a lot of apps or content, that obviously wlll be slow.
    I updated my iphone by his ID , is it still problem?
    That's probably how you got your friend's purchases. It won't be an issue for iOS, but it is an issue for those apps and content.
    Regards.

  • How can i stop user to get the same screen while entering same T code

    hi experts,
    how can i stop user to get the same screen while entering same T code (_Means i want user enter same t code but got different different screen how it is possible.)_
    i want to know how can we set a authorization is such a manner ...
    Through different different login id user got different different screen while entering same T-code.
    for example if there is two functional login id mum & noida...
    then user login through that and
    enter any same functional tcode (for getting purchase order)
    but get different different window...so how come it is possible.....
    plz explain in brief
    thanks in advance...plz do reply as soon as possible

    For a custom transaction this is easy, you need to ask your developers to be able to direct users to different screens based on the results of an authorisation check.  You could have an auth field e.g. ZSCREEN which is checked in the program & decides what screen the user has access to.
    For standard transactions, unless already coded, I would forget it & do what is recommended by Subramaniam and create transaction variants as required.  Assign each variant to a custom t-code and users access it that way.
    What I am interested is is why do you want to do this?

  • Can anybody help me in finding the reasons why the time of email received are different from the one on my macbook which time is correct

    Hi
    Can anyone help me in finding the reason why the date on e=mail reced is different from the one on my MacBook eventhough it is correct
    Thanks

    Try this...
    Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
    cmd /k netsh winsock reset
    Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
    You should get something similar to this:
    Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
    If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

  • Green screen video resizing/moving up/down/left /right on background shot

    When using green screen in Imovie is it possible to re position your green screen footage on the background ie:- up/down/left/right and also resize ?
    many thanks for any help on this.

    I haven't found any, though one can use crop or ken burns effects. I am sure there is a trick, like exporting the green screen video into keynote or something, but I haven't found a way in iMovie.
