ThinkPad SL510 Hotkey issue on Windows 10 and brigtness issue

Hi these are my issues.I have upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.But now i found that the hotkeys shortcuts for brigtness with the key Fn don't work good. ( the sound hotkeys work perfect.) The brightness can't be controlled with the Fn+brigthness up key or Fn+brightness down key ( the bar that indicates the brightness blinks like something is wrong). I fast grab the bar before dissapear with the mouse and i can control it, with mouse. Most of all i find something very weird on the brightness of the screen as I am sure as i set the brightness on the lowest level the brightness was lower with Windows 7. I mean sometimes I want the brightness on the most lower level. But with Windows 10 even in the lowest level the screen is more bright from Windows 7. My laptop is SL 510 with Windows 10 upgraded from 7 in Greek language. Thanks a lot.

I have similar problems with my Thinkpad SL510 (type: 2847-6JG, S/N: LR ALE01):After I updated from Windows 7 x64 to Windows 10, the multimedia key that should mute the speakers was not working anymore.I have no problems with the brightness control hotkeys. Also the Lock hotkey (fn+f2), the Sleep hotkey (fn+f4), the Projector hotkey (fn+f7), the Num Lock hotkey (fn+f10), the Hibernate hotkey (fn+f12) and the Print Screen hotkey are working fine.So the hotkeys that didn't work were: the battery hotkey (fn+ f3), the wireless hotkey (fn+f5), the conference (webcam+mic) hotkey (fn+f6) and the trackpad+trackpoint hotkey (fn+f8).Here is what I managed to fix:1. After I installed the Lenovo Settings app ( https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/apps/lenovo-settings/9wzdncrfj12p ) my camera and mic hotkey (fn+f6) begin to work.2. After I installed Hotkey Features Integration for Windows 10 ( http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds029026 ) - which was NOT designed for SL510 but is the only one I could find that was made specifically for Win 10 and Thinkpads -, my multimedia keys (including mute for speakers) were working fine BUT none of the hotkeys were working anymore, except for the brightness ones that were stil working fine. Therefore I uninstalled this and reinstalled the old one: Hotkey Features Integration for Windows 8 ( http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-sl-series-laptops/thinkpad-sl510/downloads/DS014985 ) which fixed the hotkeys problem but also made the mute key unresponsive again.Here is what else I've tried without any success:1. installing the new power management for win 10 ( http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/migr-4gxpeg )2. reinstalling old power management for win 7 ( http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-sl-series-laptops/thinkpad-sl510/downloads/DS101347 )3. instaling some of the Wi-fi Drivers　TL;DRDedicated mute key for speakers, Battery hotkey (fn+f3), Wireless hotkey (fn+f5), Trackpad hotkey (fn+f8), not working on Thinkpad SL510 after updating from win7 to win10! Any helpful ideas?Thanks LATER EDIT:after trying @tasn sollution and uninstalling the hotkey driver using http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/migr-74261, the mute button for the speakers started to work, but now the mute button for the Mic is not working anymore...

Install PeopleTools 8.53 with Linux Issue: Client Windows and Server Linux

Folks,
Hello. I am installing PeopleTools 8.53 Internet Architecture. Database Server is Oracle Dabase 11gR1. OS is Oracle Linux 5. I have installed JDK7, WebLogic 10.3.6, Tuxedo 11gR1 and PeopleTools 8.53 successfully into Oracle Linux 5.
Now, I am setting up PeopleTools8.53 Database. Because the Install Wizard has problem, I set up PeopleTools 8.53 Database manually using Oracle starter database instance named PT853. We need to run Data Mover script in a Windows Client machine to populate PeopleSoft Database instance in Linux Sever machine.
Let's assume:
VM1: Server machine - Oracle Linux 5
VM2: Client machine - Windows XP
Nicolas has this tutorial:
http://gasparotto.blogspot.com/2008/01/on-peoplesoft-road-peoplesoft-database_10.html
From step 15 to step 23, Nicolas does not explain how to connect VM2(client) with VM1(server) and load data from VM2 to VM1.
My questions are:
First, do we need to install PeopleTools 8.53 Windows version into the Client machine Windows XP while installing PeopleTools 8.53 Linux version in the Server machine Oracle Linux 5 ?
Second, how to connect VM2 with VM1 and then load data from VM2 to VM1 ?
Thanks.

So if I understand correctly, you have already created the oracle instance in the Linux machine. Then there is no need to install the Tools again in the Linux machine unless you want to run data mover at Linux.
You can just install the tools and oracle client in windows and load the data by running the data mover from windows. Connection happens through Oracle Client using TNS.
Steps involved are
1. Creating the database using createdb10.sql or otherwise (you have already done this)
2. Run utlspace.sql
3. Run dbowner.sql
4. Run ptddl.sql - considering that you are just installing a Tools database and not any application database
5. Run psadmin.sql
6. Run psroles.sql
7. Run connect.sql
Create the data load dms file by using DBSETUP in data mover
Run the created script and load the data
This information is available in any peopletools installation doc
Hope this helps

Reformatting from Mac to Windows and hitting issues.

Recently got a new Windows computer that I moved my library to, so I needed to reformat my iPod. I was prompted by windows to format the disk, and I did using the default values (file system: xFAT; allocation unit size: 256kb) and then attempted to restore via iTunes. It tried and gave me an error (1415, I think? It directed me to this page). So I restarted the computer to try again, but now iTunes is telling me that it's detecting a corrupted iPod. It can't seem to restore it. Not sure where to go from here.
Any help with being able to restore the iPod properly would be great.

The iPod is probably OK, since the Restore works on the Mac. And iTunes on Windows should reformat it for Windows during the Restore. Don't know why it does't...
Since you have both Mac and Windows to play with, try this... On the Mac, connect the iPod (with iTunes NOT running) and open Disk Utility. The iPod should appear in the sidebar. Select the iPod device (not the volume indented below) in the sidebar. Go to the Partition tab. For Partition Layout, select 1 Partition. Click Options, select Master Boot Record, and OK. Name it whatever you want. For Format, select MS-DOS (FAT). Click Apply.
When that completes, which should be in less than a minute, eject and disconnect the iPod. Connect it to the Windows PC, and run iTunes. Whether you are prompted or not, do a Restore. Any difference?

Fan issue making noise and heating issue

Hi,
My laptop fan is making noise like a car engine.Earliar i did nott realize it but since winters are here i can hear it clearly coz ciealing fan is not under use now.Also my laptop is quite heated below.I have read that dust can accumulate in vents but i cant see any.Also my previous laptop got killed becoz of this same issue.Hp should do something about it.Can a layman like me open the dv-4 version and clean the fan? It is out of warranty now and i dont want to spend on shop.But i saw a video HP laptops are complicated to open....and close.Watevr other advice u r most welcome to give regarding yhis issue.
thanks

HP notebooks tend to run hot & thermal control is minimal effort in design & materials.
You can try clening with compressed air or a hoover perhaps but if looks clean & air sems to be flowing I expect it not the main issue.
You may also want to check running processes & CPU use as issues here & viruses can causes CPU load thus heat.
Also review notebook placed so vents are not blocked/restricted.
Use software such as HWinfo to review the actual temps of CPU GPU etc as helps see how much of an issue you really have.
HP laptops can be improved with thermal shims, ceramique paste, housing vent modifications & in extreme cases secondary case venting 25>30mm fan.
Not easy to do without some experience.

Acrobat 9 Form Issues - Font, URL, and Print Issues

Hello folks,
We are developing an Acrobat PDF (I have Pro updated to 9.4.5) with about 30 fields. Some of them contain a default label name, others are blank, and all fields have a unique name. The blank fields on the form are being filled via an automated web services API from Aspose. All info is entered and the PDF is then flattened by the web service.
The document fully populates with all expected data but we are running into three issues:
1) A field that gets populated with a URL by the script properly becomes clickable if the font is set to Helvetica, but when set to Verdana or Arial fails to be recognized by Acrobat.
2) When I create a new form field, and assign a font face/size/color and input a default value, if I go back and try and change the size the default content seems to hold it's original size unless I do a full cut/paste of the value back into the box.
3) We are getting the notorious "An Error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem"
The odd part is we were not getting that error at first - even with data populated. It was only once we started working on getting the fields horizontally and vertically aligned that the error presented itself.
Any thoughts? I have closed and opened Acrobat, tried opening from Acrobat instead of double clicking the PDF but nothing seems to help.

thanks Mylenium
the font association problem is something recent though, since I used acrobat to print mails directly from my gmail account previously...
it's galling but I installed a free pdf printer which does the job, I needed copies of these mails urgently !
as to the update issue, I see no aum.exe, msiexec.exe or setup.exe running... but that's quite above my head... do I look for those exact processes or are they generic names for processes ?
does my question make sense ????

After Effects Issues Scrub/Crash and Memory Issue.

I am sorry if this is redundant. I have Windows XP (SP3) 3 Gb or Ram and adequite hard drive space. When I run After Effects, it loads fine. Import, fine. Scrub timeline. ERROR: Texture too small, GL error, After Effects Crahses.
Then when I render, my ram reaches 60% stops rendering.
I will dl the updates and see if tha fixes it. In the meantime is there anything I should know or any settings I should use to boost performance?
Thanks,

Well, for the first error simply turn off OpenGL. Apparently your graphics card is not up to snuff, has a flakey driver or is mis-configured somehow. The second is too generic. When asking such questions, you must provide more info - footages used, target format, effects used etc.. Also have the renderer log more details with the Extra per Frame Info option as well as watching the render status closely (untwirl the details sections to see the current layers/ comps being processed).

Windows 8 and Bonjour issues

I have an Epson NX415 printer scanner connected to an iMac running OSX 10.7.5 through USB. The printer has been shared and I can print from several devices including a Macbook Pro, an iPad, and older Macbook. My wife's previous computer, running Windows 7, was also able to print. She now has a new laptop running Windows 8. I have installed the latest version of Bonjour on this machine. When I try to add the printer through Bonjour, I get the message "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer." I have tried everything I can find on the internet and nothing works. What am I missing?

Im not sure that will solve the issue I have with itunes. I have a lenovo laptop and I think it's just an issue with Apple who has to modify the program for users of Windows 8 so that itunes can be used and to find purchased music. I found the music I purchased through itunes but it's not the full tracks. It said it allows me to download it fully so I can hear the whole track, but needs some kind of capatibility? I have no idea what the problem is. If someone has the answer knowing my computer brand and having windows 8 compatibility issues, please let me know what you suggest.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can install a 64-bit Windows 7 or Vista version in your Mac. Make sure you downloaded these drivers > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630 Also, if you have the Snow Leopard DVD you used to upgrade your Mac or the OS X DVD that came with your Mac, you can use it to install the Boot Camp drivers

Windows 7 In Place Upgrade Pre-Windows boot and Graphics issue Alienware M17x

So I'm having multiple issues here. The first issue surfaced immediately after I removed and reinserted my graphics card. For reference The computer in question is an Alienware M17XR3 with an AMD 6870m. Anyhow, The issue I had then was
that my built in display showed a black screen (would see a quick flicker of what was supposed to be on it when changing display settings but then a black screen) after Windows botted up. I could use an external monitor with no problem, and safe mode
or Windows without graphics drivers allowed everything to run normally. The on screen display also works normally on boot screens or boot disks such as the windows install disk and Hyrens boot CD. I am assuming my graphics card is shot. Either
that or my motherboard. Input on this is greatly appreciated. I do intend to upgrade it myself to a 6970m, but I won't have the money until another 1 or 2 paychecks roll around, and I woulld like to be able to use the on-screen display sooner than
that.
Anyhow, to ensure that it is a hardware issue, rather than a software issue, I cleaned old drivers then installed drivers I knew were fully functional. I did this several times with several driver versions. Nothing yielded any results. I
do not wish to do aclean install unless absolutely necessary or at least not until after the weekend, when I will have time to reinstall my 300+programs, games, themes, mods, etc. I am not opposed to doing this but I need the computer tonight and
do not have time to do all that before then. I'll be using it with an external display tonight, so the graphics issue can wait, however, to test with a clean install, I was using Aomei Partition Assistant to break off some free space as a second partition
on which I could install a second Windows 7 installation for testing purposes. I have done this multiple times before. Unfortunatly, on 4.5 hours of sleep and having been up for about 18 hours straight I wasn't thinking and forgot to plug my laptop
in. It lost power during the process and the Windows installation is now totally glitched. I've tried several fixes all to no avail and would prefer to avoid a clean install until after the weekend.
In Windows XP, I could boot from the install disk and perform a repair install, similar to the Windows 7 upgrade/in place upgrade. I would like to do this, but seeing as I cannot access the Windows environment, I'm in a bit of a jam. I could
run that program again from mini Windows XP (Hyren's Boot CD) I believe and create the second partition and dual boot. My question is, can I drop the new Windows folder over the old one or do something similar to avoid losing my programs and files? Thanks

Hi,
Based on my knowledge, we cannot just copy the windows folder to make programs work in the new operating system.
Hope it helps.

Drivers for Windows Server 2008 and HDD issues

Recently I have had the hard drive with my OS fail. After replacing the hard drive and reinstalling windows server 2008 I seem to have run into a few issues with drivers. After insalling Windows, I had 3 items in my device manager that did not install properly. I was able to get the driver for the LAN port to work but I have not gotten the driver for "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and "SM Bus Controller". After a little research, I believe the video card is a Radeon HD4350. With that information I still have been unable toinstlal the correct drivers for either of these items. I've tried several drivers listed on the drivers support page on HP's website but all fo them return the same error about not finding the correct Operating System. The link to the driver I used originally on my previous installation seems to not be valid any longer.
Also I can't seem to access the two additoinal hard drives (connected by sata). They were used with the previous installation of windows with no issues. They appear in the device manager but do not show up under My Computer. A removeable drive does show up that I'm not sure what it is. Previously I had used software to mirror one of the drives onto the other as to prevent losing data if a drive would fail. Is one of the above drives causing the issue with not being able to access the drives or did the software used before cause the problem?
Any help on these issues is greatly appreciated.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK.
I can't help you with the drives then. That is out of my realm of knowledge. If they are marked healthy and active in the disk management utility, then that is all I know that they should be indicated.
As for the graphics driver...
Download and install this free file utility.
http://www.7-zip.org/
After you install 7-zip, right click on the graphics driver file and select 7-zip from the list of options.
Select 7-zip to Extract to: and let it extract the file into a folder. I let it extract to the file name of the folder.
Then just follow the rest of my instructions to install the driver.
Of course you will first browse to where 7-zip has extracted the folder to, and proceed from there.

Gaming issues and heat issues, running windows 8.1 pro via bootcamp

I have a few problems, and I don't know what else to do, then to write for help here..
I really hope someone out there can help me, because I have had this problem since I bought my laptop mid 2012, and I got smarter since then, so now I know that I actually shouldn't have these problems, it's not because my very expensive laptop is bad, or that it is a laptop or because it's a mac, regardless of what people say, I'm positively certain that it's a problem which shouldn't be there.
I have pretty great specs, (trust me i checked them out, not the best in the world, but pretty good) yet I can't enjoy 1 single mmorpg game like, Tera, or the new Archeage (currently in open beta), or any other game, (swordsman online)... Even though people say Tera has bad coding, I have tried adjusting things for weeks if not months, NOTHING helps, i get a frame rate that is from 0-25 very unstable, usually around 7-12, and sure if I go the lowest settings in the games I can get very unstable framerates but i guess they can get up to around 35-72 but drops to like 7 or 3 sometimes as well, so even on the LOWEST settings in the games I can't enjoy the games fully... It lags and such because of the low fps ofc...
Other than that it also have a heat issue, mostly when running windows 8.1 in bootcamp.
It get's quite hot, just by opening a browser window, and yes i have tried reseting smc, and p-rams, many times.. nothing seems to help.
And even if it helped the heat problem, the gaming problem is still there.
Now to my specs: (I have the macbook pro retina, mid 2012, 15 inch)
- Prosseser: 2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor (Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz) with 6MB shared L3 cache. "Core i7" processor (3720QM)
- Memory: 16GB 1600MHz DDR3L onboard memory
- Storage: 256GB ssd flash storage. (Seperated into os x = 130GB, windows 8.1 pro = 120GB) Running games and such from my 1TB external harddisk.
- Graphics and video support:
Intel HD Graphics 4000
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory and automatic graphics switching
Dual display and video mirroring: Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on up to two external displays, at millions of colors.
And here's a link to see what is inside it for yourself: http://http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core- i7-2.6-15-mid-2012-retina-display-specs.html
When that is said, apple's warranty has run out, and I didn't buy apple care, but I still have warranty from the store (humac) I bought it in, because in my country the law is warranty 2 years, no matter what, but if i can avoid it, I REALLY would like to avoid switching it out with a new one, since there could be problems all over again, and I would lose what I have on it right now, plus it's a hassle to get a new one, they will always try and fix it for a long long time before they give a new one, and probably can't find the problem...
But if that's the only thing i can do about it, I will ofc, but just don't advise me to do that, unless there's no other solution to the problems.
Please help me.
ps: sorry if I posted it the wrong place, I wasn't allowed to post it the right place by apple...

If the underlying hardware was exposed correctly by the CSM-BIOS when Windows was installed, your Device Manager should look like this.
If the Windows installer did not see any devices as your screen indicates, Windows will use generic software-based drivers which will be very slow and painful.
Rudegar ... I think the Windows installer did not see any hardware, otherwise there should be HW with yellow triangles with exclamation marks.
