Thinkvantage Productivity Center not working! 8^(

The Thinkvantage Productivity Center software on my T61 model 7658 CTO starts and then locks up. So I cannot control the wireless.
This all started after I updated the Lenovo software. It was caused by a Lenovo update.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
If it cannot be fixed is their a way to disable it and return control of the wireless connections to Windows XP?
Thanks for your help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Additional you can try the following (if Ron_9972 is finished with his steps):
Deactivate anti virus program (select "activate manual", if possible)
Start - Programs - Accessory -System programs - Systemrecovery (i hope it is right translated from german)
Select "restore a restorepoint" and select the last date, where it worked.

ThinkVantage Productivity Center will not open - T61, Windows XP

I cannot get the ThinkVantage Productivity Center to open; specifically Rescue and Recovery.
It has worked in the past and I have no idea what changed. Windows updates are automatically installed onto my computer. It appears that the relevant proceses are running (rrservice.exe and rrpservice.exe).
Is anyone aware of what could be causing this issue?

I have the same problem like you, the Productivity Center does not work and the Rescue and Recovery User interface does not appear while I check in Task Manager, it is running, but for a while, it disapears too. I don't know why, the Rescue and Recovery User Interface have worked before and now it has error. Is there anyone face with this problem, please help me fix this. Thanks.

ThinkVantage Productivity Center - Display menu

Hi, I have a thinkpad T500 and have recently noticed that the ThinkVantage Productivity
Center's display menu doesn't seem to work in that when pressed nothing happens and
a sub-application is not involved as one would expect.
In detail,
- start-up the ThinkVantage Productivity Center (or press the blue button)
- select the 'Device Configuration' item in the "Resouce Center"
- select the 'Select display settings'
and wham nothing happens. So my question is the following, what _is_ supposed to
happen and which ThinkVantage application am I missing to remedy this issue. A friend
had told me, over the phone, that I'm supposed to see screen/LCD settings along with
on-screen-display options, etc.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Your friend is correct.
"Choose Presentation or Display Screen" (also known as "Choose Display Scheme menu") is supposed to appear.
I don't konw why it does not work in your case, however.

ThinkVantage Productivity Center T42 vs.X40

On my X40, the ThinkVantage Productivity Center allows you to update all Thinkpad software automatically. This option is not available on the T42. Does anyone have an idea of why? This is a very usefull function as it allows you to be sure that you have the latest version of all available software for your computer

I want to run a streaming quotes program on Scottrade. They tell me that their product does not work if I have more than one Java application on my Mac. How do I delete the older versions? Thanks

I want to run a streaming quotes program on Scottrade. They tell me that their product does not work if I have more than one Java application on my Mac. How do I delete the older versions? Thanks

I have the same problem, they never told me that, just that the newest version of Java "locks" up streaming quotes.

Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears: "The licensing of the product does not work" Fault 6 How should I proceed? Have the program installed on only one computer.

Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears:
"The licensing of the product does not work"
Fault 6
How should I proceed?
Have the program installed on only one computer.

Download the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool.
Run the License Service Update.
Mac OS X 10.7 and above:
a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg It will extract the folder. Open the folder.
b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
c. Double-click Applications.
d. Double-click Utilities.
e. Double-click Terminal.
f. Type sudo python
Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery111 folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return.
It should look like this:
h. Enter your administrator user name and password when prompted and click OK.
(Note: the cursor will not move and you will not see stars or dots, just enter your password anyway.
i. Let the script run, it will tell you when it is finished. Quit terminal and restart Photoshop

Add "Switch Graphics" to Thinkvantage Productivity Center?

I am trying to customize the "Quick Links" in the Productivity Center. I want to add a link to switch the graphics. So I am wondering, what actual function is being performed when swtiching the graphics from the "Power Manager" battery meter icon. (i.e. right-click on battery meter>switchable graphics>[energy saving OR high performance]. What I'm asking is if there is an ".exe" that gets executed or a certain kind of command line entry.
Basically I'm looking for a way to use an EXE to switch the graphics so I can add it to the Productivity Center as a Quick Link. If it can be done in the command line then it can be programmed as a ".bat" and complied as a ".exe" and that would be a solution.
Any ideas would be helpful, thanks.

I have the same problem like you, the Productivity Center does not work and the Rescue and Recovery User interface does not appear while I check in Task Manager, it is running, but for a while, it disapears too. I don't know why, the Rescue and Recovery User Interface have worked before and now it has error. Is there anyone face with this problem, please help me fix this. Thanks.

I don't know what to do to fix the problem!

Windows 7 Product key Not working, Cannot download iso

First sorry if this post to to simar to the other windows 7 product key one but the soultion dosnt work anymore.
My hdd in my y580 started to give me the tick of death so i brought a new ssd to replace it and backed up my files to my external. i was going to make a bootable copy of windows 7 on my usb so i could install it on the ssd and this is were i ran into issue.
All offical download links now lead to a dead page that redirects you to a new windows download form where you are required to put in your product key before you can download. i put in my product key from the sticker on the back but it just returns with this "http://prntscr.com/62eyxp"
So even if i am able to get a copy of windows 7 will my cdkey work at all? and how can i get a copy when it keep giving me the message.
Anyhelp would be welcome.

First I am not a Microsoft employee, but I am a Microsoft MVP. As such I have to stick with the position Microsoft takes on downloading ISO files. They have given some users a way to redownload the ISO file. The other ways that are posted on the web Microsoft says that the official resellers (Digital River) downloads are for those who purchase the Windows OS thru the reseller's website. Anyone else that wants to download from there is not authorized to have such a downloaded file. All other sources of those file (other than the Microsoft site or the resellers site) are not legitimate sources of the file and can be infected.
This leaves users who purchased a computer from an OEM with no viable download source. While my personal opinions may differ from the official Microsoft position, I cannot really express them. But you may want to check out the DMCA Title III. Of course this only matters if you are in the US. If you are not, I have no idea what laws would apply.
While the downloaded ISO will not work with the key that you have from an OEM, if it is a real ISO from Microsoft and has not been altered in anyway and is a complete download, you can use it for repairs. Which is what almost everyone I deal with needs it for, repairs not reinstall. To be honest I hate telling someone to wipe their harddrive and reinstall windows.
I do believe that ALL OEM's are now charging for a copy of the factory image that is originally on the harddrive. But they cannot be used for repair in the manner that the Windows install disc can be.
What you do with all this information is entirely up to you. I hope it helps.

Bugs in the latest ThinkVantage Productivity Center update

Hi,
last Friday I updated the Thinkvantage software on my T61 (WinXP). Beside fixing some problems it brought me new ones.
Foremost, now, as soon as I set my machine into the Lenovo Portreplicator (docking station), it simply goes POWER OFF. No message, no shut down, no nothing, just instant off.
In addition th power management software does not work anymore.
Trying to revert to the old SW version did not work.
Is this a know bug? what can I do?
regards
Florian

Bugs? There's bugs in every bit of software written from day one except possibly the one-liner thing that types out, "Hello world." That's why I wait a week or two after an update comes out, to let the dust settle and also review if it is something I really need. I haven't decided I actually need an iTunes update since iTunes 7.5.
After updating did you repair permissions? Did you verify your hard drive and repair permissions before updating? Many "bugs" aren't really bugs but how a change suddenly makes something that is a budding issue on a computer (and each person has a unique configuration) suddenly come to the surface.

Product Key Not Working in Unattend

We cannot get our product key to work in our unattend file. Below is the unattend file (the product key portion). Anyone notice anything wrong, or have any suggestions? I have also tried adding the product key into the custom.ini settings and that didn't
work either. I know the product key works and I have double check to make sure I didn't fat finger anything. We are imaging Windows 7 Professional Computers using a Windows Server 2012 WDS/MDT server.

ONe of the steps in your task sequence returned an error.
THe step was *not* marked as "continue on error", so the task sequence halted (red screen).
The log shows:
Expand a string: WinPEandFullOS
Executing command line: cscript.exe c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato
Process completed with exit code 2147810867
Exit code 2147810867 is simply negative 1, nothing exciting.
Something is wrong with the call to the slmgr.vbs script, it would be great if we had the output to that program, for example:
cmd.exe /c "cscript.exe c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato > %temp%\slmgr.log"
So we can look at the reasons why the command failed afterwards
