Thinkpad 8 & 10 (Win 8.1) - cannot connect to Win 7 PC

Hi
I have both tablets with Windows 8 on and I am unable to plug the USB cable into the tablet and then plug it into a PC and see the tablet in win 7 PC windows explorer list
I am a technical person so what am I missing ?
Do I actually need to buy a specific USB Datalink transfer cable - as the cables supplied with the tablets are not working when I try and connect to a PC, absolutely nothing happens - not even a searching for device drivers message when you connect them up on the win 7 PC?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Your tablets are full Windows PC devices, not Smartphones or other slave devices. If you want to connect two "host" USB devices together, you'll need a special USB cable to connect your tablet to a desktop or laptop.
It would be far simpler to share data via your local network, surely? E.g. use Homegroup.

  • Win 7 PC cannot connect to Time Capsule - despite flawless I'net connection

    Hi, strange thing and I'd appreciate if someone knew a trick to solve it:
    Although my Windows notebook can connect to the internet via our Time Capsule (WPA2 key, AES encryption) without any problems for a long time now, I cannot connect to it via AirPort even with the correct WPA key.
    When running the AirPort utility I can see our TC with its name and IP address (10.0.1.1 as usual, I think) in the main view. After clicking "Manual Setup" or "Continue" in the main view, AirPort asks for the password.
    After entering the password (same as the one that is in my settings for the WLAN connection via TC, of course), *TC REFUSES TO CONNECT* and the *"Enter password" window will appear over and over again*. No specific error message given.
    The WLAN connection has been set up using the MacBook (I once read this could be a problem). Working proberly
    all the time, though.
    Tried deactivating both firewall and virus protection of my Norton security package on my Lenovo - no effect.
    Background:
    We intend to use an external USB hard drive which is connected to our Time Capsule. After TC has moaned that the drive had to be "repaired", we created partitions for Mac (OS X) and Windows (FAT) partition from the MacBook.
    The MacBook can access the drive and partitions. Fine.
    The Windows 7 notebook won't show the hard drive nor the Time Capsule. Thus, I have installed AirPort utility (V 5.5.1) to get access to the USB hard drive. And there I am - kinda stuck halfway...
    Hardware setup:
    Lenovo ThinkPad X61, Windows 7 Pro
    MacBook, OS X 10.5.8
    Time Capsule
    1.0TB Buffalo Drive Station USB 3.0 plugged into Time Capsule
    Help would be very much appreciated!
    Thanks a lot,
    Mark

    I found something that worked for me. I got Error Number 53 when trying to connect to my time capsule using Airport Base Station Agent with windows vista. I think the issue is allowing your time capsule to be accessed over Bonjour; I think this feature is disabled by default. Well, here is what I did (also, this may answer the question for those of you who are confused to why it asks for a username/password when you attempted to map the time capsule's hdd) -
    In Airport Utility: Airport >> Time Capsule
    - Click "Edit..." and check the "Use dynamic global hostname" box.
    - Enter in the info (for hostname, I used the same name as the local Hostname (at the top of that window, for user/password -- The info you enter here is the same info you must enter when you are prompted to, that is if you try to map the time capsule's hdd)
    - Click "OK"
    In Airport Utility: Disks >> Files Sharing
    - Make sure "Share disks over WAN" is checked AND make sure "Share disks over the Internet using Bonjour" is checked as well.
    - Click OK.
    In Airport Utility: Click "Update", let it reset, and try accessing the Time Capsule via Airport Base Station Agent as you usually would/or mapping the harddrive"
    In summary, since vista uses Bonjour, you must make sure your time capsule is 'Bonjour-accessible'
    I Hope this solution alleviates a lot of people's problems!!!
    Oh yea, this solution worked with firmware 7.4.1
    AND...prior to trying this method, I did enable NETBIOS. It was enabled while I did this solution (and still is). I haven't tried it with it disabled (well maybe not disabled - it's on automatic by default).

  • Cannot connect IBM Thinkpad to Linksys Router Wirelessly

    I recently moved in with a friend, and my IBM Thinkpad T42, with Windows XP, cannot connect to her Linksys WRT120N router wirelessly. I am able to connect to the internet using an Ethernet cable, and I am able to connect to other public wireless networks.
    I have been told by Cisco helpdesk people that it is because Windows XP does not support WPA2 security, and/or that because they don't know much about IBM computers, I should get rid of the third party internet connection software, IBM Access Connections, that came with my computer.
    I have been having this problem for a week, and I did not even know I had IBM Access Connections until today, so I don't think that's the problem. Also, my friend has been using that application successfully on her computer, Thinkpad T61, Windows XP, to connect to this router, which she has been using for 2 years. So with two almost identical computers, does anybody know why my wireless connection isn't working?

    Answer these questions, I may be able to give you the right solution to your issue: 
    1. Go to your Network Connections folder on your wired computer and check which one is connected:
    a. Local Area Connection
    b. Broadband Connection
    c. 1394 Connection
    2. What is the IP address of your computer?
    3. Who is your internet service provider?
    4. What is the error message when you connect the wireless computer to the network?

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My win 7 home premium cannot connect the sharing printer (EPSON L1100) in Windows server 2003 it say "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Accses denied"

    in My office there is a win server 2003 R2 computer, i install a printer Epson L1100 in that computer, and it successfull, and i can print using that printer from that computer..
    I already share this printer, but when i try to connect the printer from my laptop using OS Win 7 Home Premium.. it has error
    "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Accses denied"...
    and then i try connect using other computer but same OS (win 7 Home premium) it still has same error...
    i usually connect to the server computer using //(the ip of computer) , for example
    //52.30.20.66 .. that is my IP server..
    and than i right click in shared printer which appears in windows explorer, and i choose

    anyone know the solution from this error???
    i`m sorry if my english is bad.. i`m from indonesia

    net user /add useraccountname mypassword
    net localgroup users useraccountname /add  (I think it's users the name, you can validate to be sure) or
    net localgroup administrators useraccountname /add in worst case.
    nb, or add the user guess in the printer share security

  • Win XP Client Cannot Connect to Mac OS X 10.4.4 Server but Win 2000 Can

    Anyone run into this problem? Just basic Apple/Windows stand alone, no domain or interaction with other Windows Servers. User can log on fine with Windows 2000 client, but same user cannot connect with Windows XP client on same network.
    Any workarounds out there?
    Mac G4 MDD, 1GB RAM, 80MB main drive, 400GB data Mac OS X (10.4.4)

    I had trouble with a WinXP client a while back, and
    only vaguely rememeber things I did to fix it. I'm
    thinking it's the Win system, not the Mac. On the win
    machine, try deselecting the box "Enable IEEE 802.1x

    interface.
    Thank you for the suggestion. It worked!

  • Connect Pro doesn't recognised the ThinkPad webcam in Win 7 64-bit

    Since upgrading my ThinkPad X300 to Win 7 64-bit, Connect Pro (7 and 7.5) wouldn't recognised the webcam. Funnily enough, ConnectNow from Acrobat.com doesn't have the same problem.

    This just doesn't work. No matter how many times you tick the box on/off. And it's really a pain while working with projects on different workstations containing around 1500 video files! Especially now that Premiere isn't smart enough to search the subfolders of a project itself...
    Anyone from Adobe that could give us a notice about if this feature will be fixed and when?

  • MAC X 10.5.4 cannot connect to WIN XP pro

    Seems like i'm not the only one with this problem.
    I'm trying to connect from mac X 10.5.4 to WIN XP pro machine.
    I've tried all the obvious:
    - I have a guest account
    - I have other accounts with passwords on all (this in the WIN machine).
    - I am absolutely sure I've typed the usernames and passwords correctly.
    - I even switched away from "simple share" on windows.
    - I made sure the sharing is correct on WIN.
    - I turned off any firewalls on the WIN machine
    - I can get on line from both machines
    - I can connect to another WIN machine from my WIN machine
    I can ping the machine from my mac but cannot connect.
    I get either error messages about no permissions, or cannot log in, or cannot mount the drive. I've tried every which way possible. Logging under my account in WIN or as a guest.
    Before 10.5.2 (I think that's what caused the problem) I had no problem
    whatsoever connecting. Now nothing works.
    Help greatly appreciated thx

    Windows security is broken up into two parts. Local permissions, and net permissions. You must set both in order to allow access. Simply setting up the share doesn't grant the user access to it.
    You must define the share on the Share tab, and then go to the 'Security' tab and add whatever account the user will be using to access the folder and its associated files.
    Make sure that the files in whatever folder your sharing pick up the inheritence of the parent folder permissions by checking the security on a few files in the folder and verify that the parent folder permissions match the file permissions. I've had instances where inheritence doesn't apply properly and the files in the folder don't have the permissions you set on the parent folder.

  • TS2706 I cannot connect to my airport (time capsule) from a Windows PC

    Any information on how to connect to an aiport extreme (really the time capsule) from a Windows platform. Have no problem from our Mac's but cannot connect from a windows based platform.  I haven't been able to find any recent posts to help with this problem.

    First off, Archon23, what you want to achieve is possible.  I have access to both my Time Capsule (TC) and the USB drive connected to it, from a Win. 7 and Win. XP machine.
    Here is what I see from the Windows side of things:
         From My Computer - TC USB Drive (Y)
         From Windows HomeNet - Time Capsule:
    Now getting there is the trick.
    One caveat before proceeding:  I am not well versed in Windows Networks, Windows Sharing and Firewall settings so some of the following may not be elegant, may not be absolutely required, and may not be the best way of getting there.  But it is what I did to see both the TC drive and it's attached USB  drive on the Windows side of my network..
    1.) First, I added Airport Utility to the Inbound rules of Win 7 Firewall
    While poking around my Network Sharing and Firewall settings trying to figure this out, I got a Pop-up recommending I do that.  AND I did that. Oh, and while you are at it, make sure you have a Home network established. 
    2.) Next, on a hunch, I installed a USB Wi-Fi Adapter (under $20) to my Win PC, enabled that Wi-Fi connection and disabled my Ethernet connection.  I was getting no where on this matter with my Ethernet connection to a DSL Gateway.  But with a Wi-Fi connection to my AirPort Express Base Station, I made progress.
    3.) Finally, while poking around my Network Sharing Center some more, one by one I started the various network device Setup Wizards in there, and Trouble Shooters, to find the elusive TC/USB devices in question...AND voila, it worked.   And it's stable, been this way for going on two weeks now.
    Good luck.

  • I have 64 bit windows 7- and itunes version 10.6.1.7. yet i cannot connect to the store- anbody can help?

    i have 64 bit windows 7- and itunes version 10.6.1.7. yet i cannot connect to the itunes store.  do i need to download something additional?

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 &amp; above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes, Sync and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • The restor pocess did not succeed because your computer cannot connect to the server - Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials Experience

    Hi all
    I've been running Windows Server 2012 R2 with the Essentials Experience in test for a Windows 8.1 client environment, on an HP ProLiant MicroServer N54L. Overall I've found the Essential Experience set-up over WHS2011 and WHSv1 okay; still looking to extract
    any real value over the former versions.
    This box has been up and running for a few months now, with client backups of a Win 8.1 box scheduled and running successfully every day. However when trying to conduct any file restores from the backups, to the client, I receive an error dialog once I go
    through motions from the Dashboard:
    On the 'Devices' tab, right-click the appropriate client and select 'Restore files or folders for the computer'
    'Restore Files of Folders' dialog pops up, asking me to 'Choose a backup' from the list of all the backups that have run
    Select any one in the list - have tried numerous backups; automatic, manual, etc. same result every time
    Brings up the dialog to 'Choose a volume', choose either C: or D: partitions of the same fixed drive - again, no difference which one I choose, the outcome is the same
    'Opening the volume' dialog starts, with progress bar, runs to about 4% complete the pops up the dialog 'The restore process did not succeed'. Full error in the dialog, "The restore process did not succeed because your computer cannot connect to the
    server. Make sure that the computer is connected to the networkm and then try again
    If my computer cannot connect to the server - how can I get that far? How can I open the dashboard, select a client, select from a list of backups, select a volume to restore, etc. What is going on here?

    Hi,
    Please check if a "host" entry for the server is added to the client. For more detailed information, please refer to the threads below:

  • TS1368 I cannot connect to iTunes store using iTunes. 'Secure link to iTunes store failed'. Please help!

    I cannot connect to iTunes store using iTunes. I have version 11.0.2.26 on Win 7 pc. I have had no problems until recently. Can't say exactly the problem began as I don't normally use my computer to access the store but my last successful access according to iTunes diagnostics was 28th Feb 2013 (if thats useful?!)
    I've run the Network Connectivity Test in iTunes diagnostics and I got the following results:
    - Network interfaces verified.
    -Internet connection verified.
    -Secure link to iTunes failed.
    When I click the help button next to the 'Secure link to iTunes failed' message I get the following:
              ''iTunes Help is unavailable because your computer isn't connected to the internet.'
    My pc is connected to the internet. I've checked firewalls. Windows firewall is off. I'm running AVG internet security 2013. Iv've checked the firewall settings on that and iTunes is not being blocked.
    Getting kinda frustrated. Can anybody help please???

    I seem to have tracked down the problem. AVG Family Safety software was causing the issue somehow. I have uninstalled it and iTunes now working. I will contact AVG for a solution as I now have no way of blocking certain sites.

  • NB200 Can connect to wireless networks, but cannot connect to the internet

    I have been able to connect my Win XP netbook to my secure wireless network at home, other people's networks and public networks like the library and McDonalds. This week I'm away from home and discovered that while I can still connect to a number of different wireless networks, I cannot connect to the internet using Internet Explorer.
    I've had this problem once before and fixed it by reinstalling Windows XP and all my other software. I have no idea why it has happened again. I'm hoping for a less drastic solution to the problem..?

    Hi Nakia,
    > I cannot connect to the internet using Internet Explorer.
    Have you tested other browsers like Mozilla Firefox and does this work?
    As MasterG wrote try to renew the IP address using the commend line.
    Last week I had a similar problem and I could solve it by updating the WLAN driver. Just remove the driver, restart the notebook and install the newest one. :)
