ThinkPad Yoga - Digitizer is not working

Hello,
I just received my new shiny TPY (again). The first time I got it, the digitizer wasn't working. After a bit of research I realized that it probably was a hardware issue (No digitizer, pen or wacom device in device-manager). So I send it back.
The mainboard got replaced and today I have my machine back. It was all working fine including the digitizer.
But from one minute to the other it stopped working and I can't find any wacom or digitizer devices in the device-manager.
Now my first thought was, that the Windows updates messed something up, so I've done a rollback but it's still not working.
Am I doing something wrong or is it a hardware issue again?
Thanks for advance.

Hello. It isn't a Hardware Problem. It seems to be a software problem after Windows 8.1 Update.
I have the same problem :-( When I start the PC it works perfect, until I used it as Tablet. After that the Digitizer Pen didn't work. So I reinstalled all drivers. After that the pen worked.. so I tested it again as Tablet, after that. the Digitizer Pen didn't work. Now I installed all drivers again but the Pen didn't worked.
It is a big problem at Lenovo, because Lenovo has problems with the pen software a long time. It is soooo sad because I love the Thinkpad Yoga but with this Problem the price isn't acceptable. So I am going to send it back and wait for the Surface Pro 3. Because Thinkpad stands for the perfect Business Notebook and now... Lenovo has with the digitizer pen more problems than all others. And this is very sad :-(

ThinkPad Yoga Digitizer Question

I learned that the digitizer with Helix cannot be used as an eraser, does the ThinkPad Yoga digitizer have the same problem? Thanks

Download and install the Wacom Feel driver from the link below, then go into your control panel and select 'Pen Tablet Properties'.

Brand New Digitizer Does NOT work...

Hello, Im using an old Plam M505 to give me information VIA diagnostics on my car, just simple text. I bought it brand new never turned on flawless, and when I went to turn it on, The digitatizer does not work. Im stuck at the very first screen "use the stylis to tap the screen and continue" I tapped it, nothing, I can power no and off and dim and brighten the screen with the power button when its plugged in, but thats it. I charged it and it doesnt turn on unless plugged in. If the battery was never used and has been sitting there for 8 years its probibaly dead huh? also would that cause my digitizer to not work? Oh also when I push the application buttons it just beeps a little. One more thing the software does not recognise it, so I cant even access it through that.
Post relates to: Palm m505

Hello dsmcraze, Welcome to the Palm Support Community!
Always the first thing to try in any PalmOS "hiccup" is a Soft Reset. Gently press the tiny "Reset" button on the back of the device to reboot it. No information will be lost.
Did you fully charge the device for 3 hours before using it? Try plugging it into the charger and tap the Reset button. This theoretically should reset the charging circuitry that monitors the "full" level.

Thinkpad yoga 11e does not run working vbscript

I'm using the Thinkpad to run the sample script ListAll.vbs provided by Lenovo. The script works fine on other models but when I try to run it on the Yoga 11e the return is an equal sign only. I looked at the documantation and it list the Yoga as compatiable so what could cause this issue?

I have double-checked my ThinkPad Yoga 11e here, and it is working correctly. My system originally had BIOS 1.15, which worked. Then, to double-check, I updated to the latest BIOS 1.16 which also worked.
Please double-check that you are using the correct scripts here: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/script.zip
"cscript.exe ListAll.vbs"
If you're still having problems, then I suspect something is wrong with your OS image, or some other software you have installed is interfering somehow.

Yoga 12: Autorotation not working with windows 10

Hello I updated my Win 8.1 pro to 10 pro .. but now i have some problem 1st display does not autorotate2nd the lock rotation button does not show any reaction3. in the display settings the rotation button is greyed out any tips ?

LargeKebab wrote:
To clarify the above, if I reinstall W10 then I can put the laptop in tablet mode, diable the autorotate lock, put the laptop back in laptop mode, then the screen will autorotate as before?
Your understanding is correct. I reconfirmed it again today on ThinkPad Yoga 12 after upgrade from Win8.1 -> Win10.
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht103981
Microsoft has told us this is their bug, they are supposed to leave auto-rotate enabled by default after upgrade to Win10, so it will just work the way you expect. We are not sure when they will fix their bug, but if you wait a month or two until you upgrade to Win10 again, you may not see this problem.

Thinkpad yoga digitiser nib not replacable?

Hi all,
I've bought a thinkpad yoga with digitiser and when i tried to change the nib of the digitiser i can't seem to get it out. (i figure a felt tib or rubber tip might never scratch the screen and might give it a better feel)
I've tried the wacom tool for getting the nib out and even a swiss tool plier resulting in a ffed up nib still in place and me having to smoothen it with some sandpaper.
Was lenovo really that stupid to not make the nibs interchangeable or replacable? Kind of majorly dissapointed if it's not...

From the TP Yoga's FRU BOM: http://download.lenovo.com/parts/ThinkPad/yoga_fru_bom_20140319.pdf the digitizer stylus is FRU P/N: 04X6468
Looking at this page: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?&DocID=PD030464 the digitizer stylus carries a marketing P/N: 4X80F22110
You can use the FRU P/N to search the maintenance parts site: http://www-304.ibm.com/shop/americas/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/default/PromotionDisplay?promoName=pa...
Both numbers may help you search for 3rd party vendors.
Hope this helps.

Yoga 13 touchpad not working at one spot

Hi,
i bought an Ideapad Yoga 13 from amazon and it has one problem. One spot on the left side of the touchpad is not working. When I move my finger to that point, the cursor does not move and the little icon in the notification area of Windows 8 does not show any pressure. The area goes from top to the bottom of the touchpad but is only a few millimeters wide. This is very annoying when I move my finger from one side of the touchpad to the other for example when I'm dragging something with the cursor, because at this point the cursor just stops.
Could this be a problem with the driver or is my touchpad faulty and I should just send the Yoga 13 back? Also do I send it to amazon or lenovo?
Thanks for any answers and suggestions.

hi pagefault,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
One way to try this out is to Uninstall the Synaptics Driver and try the touchpad using windows driver if it still the same.
To Remove Synaptics Driver:
Go and open Control Panel / Programs and Feature / uninstall a program
You will see Synaptics as one of the programs, Uninstall that and restart the Computer.
Once restarted Try the touchpad and see if the problem is still there.
    Verify that the synaptics driver is uninstalled by Checking the mouse properties
                Open Control Panel / Hardware and Sound / Mouse
      This option should be gone if the synaptics driver is uninstalled
If Without a driver, you're still having the same issue I would consider this as a Hardware Concern.
You can contact Amazon or Lenovo Technical Support about the issue.
If the problem disappeared without a driver
Try reinstalling the Synaptics driver by downloading and installing this
Synaptics TouchPad Driver for 64-bit Windows

My scroll feature of the Lenovo ThinkPad(red scroll) is not working in the new Firefox 4. It was working fine in 3.6. Can you please fix this as this is very important feature.

The scroll feature(middle button) is not working on the new firefox 4. So because of this I need to move the scroll bar to move the page. This is very irritating problem, if you are a guy who uses the middle button to scroll. Can you please fix this..
Thanks!!!

I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
So glad to get this working again.

Why is my ThinkPad track point scroller not working in Firefox 4?

Today as advised by you I have installed Firefox 4 on my ThinkPad Z60m laptop. Earlier with Firefox and all other application worked fine but now its not working on Firefox 4 yet working fine on MS IE and other applications. Please let me know soonest or else I being an avid user of the IBM track point will discontinue using Firefox altogether.

For me the solution given here worked on my Thinkpad T42 WinXP:
http://aslezak.com/thinkpad-trackpoint-scrolling-in-firefox
Open this file in Notepad:
C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\tp4table.dat
Find this line:
; Pass 1 rules (These rules run last)
Add the following lines above that:

ThinkPad X1 Carbon scrolling not working

Hello,
I just received my new ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Type 20A7). This is running with Windows 7, 64 bits.
Scrolling from the touchpad (with one or two fingers) does not work.
I tried installing the latest drivers from Lenovo's website (although you would assume that the latest drivers are installed when you buy a new machine), but that did not help.
When I go to the control panel and to the advanced settings for the touchpad, I can see that the scrolling features are activated. They just don't work.
Sometimes, I notice that after startup, scrolling works for a couple minutes, then not anymore.
Could you please help me out?
Thank you,
Cheers.

Hi realkirua, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
Remember that this is users helping users here, moderated by volunteers like me. Although there is some Lenovo presence, they can't patrol the entire community. They do try to help with some of the broader issues.
The odd part about what you describe is that the UltraNav driver install fails (6hgx81ww.exe). Have you tried manually uninstalling the old one (Control Panel>Programs and Features) then runnning the installer again?

Thinkpad e530 internal mic NOT WORKING

I have a Thinkpad Edge e530c.After updating to windows 8.1 my internal microphone is not working.I checked the drivers and they are up to date.I checked in device manager and its saying 'This device is working properly.' Anyone Plzz plzz help me!!

Your problem is you have the latest driver. If you have the driver from about 2 weeks ago, it broke the mike. You need to go into your "drivers" folder and reinstall the original driver. Then it will work again.

Thinkpad Yoga: Digitizer only? Deactivate finger input

Hi everybody,
quick question: my Thinkpad x201 Tablet provided the option to deactivate finger input, i.e. use only the digitizer, which I quite like when making presentations, as this way no accidential input occurs when resting your hand on the screen while writing.
I now bought a Thinkpad Yoga 2. Couldn't figure out yet how to deactivate finger input there. Any ideas? Any workarounds?
Thanks a lot.

Okay guys, I just figured it out: finger input is automatically disabled as long as the digitizer is near the screeen. Quite fancy...

Thinkpad T60 external display not working

Got a problem with attaching an external display to a thinkpad T60, it will not give a display at all on any external monitor with the FN F7 combination,
The LCD goes black on the laptop screen, but nothing appears on the external monitor
Its got an intel 945 graphics chip.
Looks like a hardware problem to me, has anyone ever come across this?

Have you tried upgrading the BIOS version...It solved partly a similar problem for me but I still have color problem.
Is somebody know why there is 7 monitors displayed in device manager and how to know which of the 4 plug and play monitor is associated with my external screen???
I have color problem with my View Sonic 2260 wm (on a Thinkpad T60 also). Strange problem and what is weird is that the problem go on and off...
Thanks,

Thinkpad W530 problem - Microphone not working

Hi,
My W530 microphone's not working. Whenever any problem tries to use it (skype, audacity), it always shows a quick activity (about 0.5 ms), always with the same from - and nothing more, ever.
I have installed drivers from realtec, and the drivers from lenovo, nothing works.
I done wha said in all other forumes (sound->manage sound devices), - disable listening, disable all featues or enable, as well as chagne settings to the highest availble. Nothing helps.
This has been so since I bought this computer about a month ago.
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Please help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi again, matanm
Is the microphone still coming on for a brief second before not working again, as you mentioned in your first post? Also, can you take a screenshot using the Snipping Tool of your Sound ► Recording settings? You can navigate to this by right-clicking on the Sound icon in the taskbar and selecting Recording devices. Also, if you haven't already, I would download the Realtek driver again from Lenovo's website here
Thanks in advance,
Adam.

Thinkpad T410 [p-'/\ keys not working.

They keys I stated on the subject above sometimes stops working at all and I had to try several times before they start working again. I have uninstalled and installed the keyboard drivers and don't think the driver is the problem as they also failed on Linux as well. They haven't die completely yet but am afraid soon they may not work at all.

the only thing that i can suggest in your case, would be to change your keyboard?
