Thinkvantage Toolbox doesn't think I have any ram

Got this notice today from thinkvanatage toolbox. I have a W520 with 8gb of RAM, 4 came with the machine and I installed another 4gb without issue about a week ago. Also, If i click the upgrade memory link it sends me to bad page on the lenovo website.
Weird....

Dear imlere,
We actually have two problems going on so we can tackle each in turn. However, I noticed in the screenshot that you have BIOS version 1.21 installed. Version 1.25 is available from www.Support.Lenovo.com which includes this item:
Fixed an issue where the computer with large-capacity memory installed might fail to resume normal operation from standby/sleep state.
I have no idea if that will solve the LTT issues but it sounds reasonable. Otherwise, continue below.
We are not seeing any memory installed
Could you check the system history page in LTT to see if it detected your memory installation a week ago?
1. Open LTT and click the Lenovo Support button
2. Select the Performance and Configuration History row to open it and click the button
3. On the calendar, select the appropriate date on the System Changes row and look at the Hardware changes
4. Does it show that memory was added?
Could you run a system information report and send it to me?
1. Click the Diagnostics button
2. Click System Information and then the Advanced System Details button
3. Click Expand All and then Save the file
4. Check your Private Messages page for my e-mail address to send the report
We are not detecting your MTM
The "Upgrade Memory" button is expecting to have your MTM to display a web page for your exact system. However, we are not seeing the MTM. You can confirm this because of the blank space next to Product in the upper left corner of LTT. From the screenshot, the Product (MTM) appears blank and the serial number seems to be a bunch of spaces in quotes. A BIOS update may fix this issue but the report I requested above will help us as well.

  • Setting mediaplayer.autoPlay doesn't seem to have any effect

    Hi,
    As topic says, setting the autoPlay property on MediaPlayer to false doesn't seem to have any effect on the VideoElement.
    The MediaPlayer always auto play when assigning it a new VideoElement. I'm using OSMF 1.5
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It looks ok. Can you provide the code for createVideoElement as well?
    This is the snipet that works for me:
    var resource:URLResource = new URLResource("http://mediapm.edgesuite.net/strobe/content/test/AFaerysTale_sylviaApostol_640_500_short.f lv");
    // Create the MediaElement and add it to our container class.
    var videoElement:VideoElement =  new VideoElement(resource);
    container.addMediaElement(videoElement);
    var mediaPlayer:MediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
    mediaPlayer.autoPlay = false;
    mediaPlayer.media = videoElement;

  • My iMac doesn't think I have Safari installed

    I'm currently running Mac OS X Version 10.9.5.  All my software components are up to date.  Current Safari version is: 7.1.
    In a couple of cases (see below), I believe that Mac OS X doesn't think that I have Safari installed or the latest version of Safari installed.
    Case 1:
    When I go to WWDC online videos (any recent year, but certainly the latest: https://developer.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2014/) and try to play a video I get this:
    System Requirements
    To watch the streaming version of this video, use the latest version of Safari on a Mac running OS X Lion or later. Alternatively, you can watch this video in the WWDC app or download the video when available.
    Case 2:
    Within Safari under Preference - Extensions, I click on the "Get Extensions" button on the button right and it brings me to a web page that advertises extensions but instead of offering me to download an extension, the page instead suggests for me to download Safari 6, i.e.
    You need Safari 6 to install and use Safari Extensions. Download now.
    Despite this, Safari has been working normally for years now but believe my machine is in a state where it isn't completely happy.

    Hi ..
    Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions issue ..
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • With the latest upgrade to 7.0.1 the Url's that appear on on the pull down of the URL bar, are in a different order and one that doesn't appear to have any logic to it. what determines the order?

    In the past, the URL's used seemed to be in order of use. The sites I went to most often were at the top of the pull down list. Now they are jumbled.
    FWIW, I find this feature to be very useful. I use it routinely as a very quick way to get back to sites I visit most frequently. I use the bookmark bar for secondary sites, and bookmarks for tertiary sites.

    I followed the instructions in your first link, but I don't have a user.js file, and in any event, the instructions there aren't really relevant. The problem isn't that Firefox doesn't remember this setting, it's that I can't set Firefox to put a New Tab button on my Navigation bar in the first place because it's not in the list of items I can select. And yes, I've tried restoring the default set several different times with no effect. I know that the button exists, because I can see it on the copy on my laptop, even after the upgrade. The only thing I haven't tried (maybe) is disabling all plugins, so I'll try that and report back.

  • IBooks doesn't think I own any books

    After installing Mavericks and launching iBooks it said it would check for books I own for my apple id and then told me promptly that I don't own any (which I do). When I go to the iBooks Store and search for books I own, it says download vs. showing the price so the store knows that I own them.
    iBooks will not download any book samples either.
    When I click "Store/Check for Available Downloads" it asks for my password which I enter and tells me "all updates and purchases have been downloaded for this apple id"  umm, no.
    Wondering why my apple id won't download my books!!

  • HT1338 My Safari unexpextedly quits. I don't think I have any add-ons. What can I do?

    My Safari quits unexpectedly. It just started this week so I am a bit peeved. I have re-installed the software, but it didn't seem to help. Any ideas?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Step 1
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)

  • HT1349 I had iTunes and QuickTime on my p.c. and they stopped working. Now I can't uninstall them or re-install them. I'm stuck and Apple doesn't seem to have any avenue to go down concerning their programs. I'm getting really frustrated. Anybody know wha

    Why can't I get my iTunes or Quicktime to play? I've had my pc checked and it isn't a problem there. My java is up to date and all other programs work well. Other people I know have been having similar problems with Apple downloads. Now I can't uninstall them therefore I can't re install them.  Help! Anybody out there have the same problems? I've tried every suggestion I've gotten from these blogs and can't get Apple to respond. 

    why are you posting this in the iPhone forum?

  • Local chain doesn't triggers. Have any one came across this problem?

    Hi Experts,
    We face this problem frequently in Process chains. The Local Chain Doesn't gets triggered.
    Checked the start variant. Things are fine.( Marked has 'Meta chain' or 'direct scheduling')
    The error Message got from the 'Display message' option follows:
    <i>Job started
    Step 001 started (program RSPROCESS, variant &0000000730265, user ID ALEREMOTE)
    Communication buffer deleted from previous run 44LFCE86BFU65ESQ5PR2N4MV8 (status G)
    Version 'M' of chain Zchain_name was saved without checking
    Version 'A' of chain Zchain_name was saved without checking
    The Chain Was Removed From Scheduling
    Program RSPROCESS successfully scheduled as job BI_PROCESS_COMPRESS with ID 08463401
    Program RSPROCESS successfully scheduled as job BI_PROCESS_DBSTAT with ID 08463503
    Job BI_PROCESS_DROPINDEX could not be scheduled. Termination with returncode 8
    Job BI_PROCESS_DROPINDEX could not be scheduled. Termination with returncode 8
    Job finished</i>
    The Local chain has the following steps:
    1.start
    2. delete index
    3.load step
    4. creat index
    5. activate ODS
    6. DB statistics
    7. compression.
    Let me know if needed more information.
    Thanks and regards,
    Kannan N

    the start variant for the local chain..should use the setting..'start using meta-chain or API'..and not 'direct scheduling'..
    error messages suggest that there is issue with dropindex job..
    the steps suggest that u r loading data into an ODS..so u dont need the steps for delete index,create index,db stats and compression(these steps are used only for loads to infocubes)
    so chain should be like this..
    1.start
    2.load step(to ODS)
    3. activate ODS
    4.further update from ODS to targets(if ODS loads to further data targets)
    u can also refer this weblog..

    After installing version 3.6.13 remembering passwords doesn't seem to work. I checked the settings (private navigation, privacy, security). each time i visit a website which needs a password the "remember - bar" shows and i press the remember button, but nothing happens.

  • R61-Thinkvantage Toolbox cannot see my Antivirus program

    Since i installed the latest update of Thinkvantage Toolbox, i get a message that the toolbox can't find the antivirus software on my system- and recommends that i download Norton Internet security
    I have always had Symantec Antivirus installed, works fine, and was recognised by Toolbox until recently..
    So why does Thinkvantage Toolbox suddenly not recognise it?
    Any way to tell toolbox "thank you, i have an antivirus program- Mr Toolbox, meet Mr Symantec...."
    I hope that is not just some marketing con, designed to frighten inexperienced users into buying a product they don't need.Can someone reassue me that this is not the case?

    Answering my own question : custom task class was not declared public :D

  • Thinkvantage toolbox icon wont disappear - tried everything!

    I am having the same problem as a couple of others have in previous posts, I cannot prevent the thinkvantage toolbox icon from appearing upon startup. I have tried disabling via unchecking the box in the thinkvantage toolbox settings page, and I have tried unchecking it in the list of toolbars when you right click the taskbar. Both of these remove it, but it continues to appear upon restarting the computer. Thinkvantage toolbox is not in my list of startup programs in msconfig. What can I do???
    running on thinkpad x121e, windows 7 64bit
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    There are some solutions for this problem listed in the following thread:

  • HT201318 Hello. I have just built a website using iWeb but cannot upload it. I curently have the 25gb account. There doesn't appear to be any facility here for the net. ASm I correct in thinking I need an upgrade, or am I doing something wrong?  Thanks

    Hello. I have just built a website using iWeb but cannot upload it. I curently have the 25gb account. There doesn't appear to be any facility here for the net. Am I correct in thinking I need an upgrade, or am I doing something wrong?  Thanks

    iCloud does not provide website hosting. You will need to find another website hosting service - there are many to choose from - and upload your site there. How you do this depends on what version of iWeb you have.
    In order to upload your existing site in iWeb '09 and above:
    Click on the name of the site in the sidebar: the publishing settings pane will open. Set 'Publish to' to 'FTP'. Enter the name of the site and a contact address (if desired).
    In the 'FTP Server Settings' section you will need to know the server address (your hosting service can tell you that), and your username and password for that service. Your site will be published in a folder with its name at root level of the server, with an index.html file at root level (which will overwrite any index.html file which may be there already). The 'Directory/Path' field may need to include a path such as '/webspace/' or 'ht_docs/' - this is dependent on your hosting service and they should tell you this. If you want to publish within a folder you can add that to the path.
    You can then click the 'Test connection' button so that iWeb can check that it can get access to your server space. You should enter the URL of the site in the 'URL' field so that rss feeds and internal links have the correct address.
    To publish using an earlier version of iWeb:
    From the File menu choose 'Publish to a folder'. You should create a folder somewhere convenient specifically for this and choose it when publishing to a folder: this folder should not contain anything else.
    You now need an FTP program (FTP is the 'protocol' used for uploading) to upload the contents of the folder to your server.Cyberduck is free (donation requested): Transmit is $34 but I think better. You will need the server address (your hosting service can tell you that), and your username and password for that service. You can drag the contents of your folder to your webspace, or create a folder there and drag the contents to that if you prefer.
    Some facilities that iWeb provided when hosted on MobileMe will not work on other servers: comments on weblogs and photos, password-protecting your site (some hosts may provide this), searching in the weblog, and a hits counter (again, some hosts can provide code for this). Slideshows in iWeb will work on other hosts than MobileMe (they use different code when FTPing which doesn't depend on scripts hosted on MobileMe as the MobileMe version does); however there is an issue with the 'buttons' which control the slideshow which are images hosted on me.com - these depend on images which used to be hosted on MobileMe. The poster 'Old Toad' on the Apple Forums has provided a workaround, described at http://oldtoadstutorials.net/No.26.html.

    For some reason, your Mac doesn't recognise that a keyboard is present, so it looks for a wireless keyboard. The question is, why doesn't your Mac recognise that a keyboard is attached?
    First, you need to make sure you remove all peripherals, especially USB peripherals (the keyboard is on the USB bus). Then restart holding down the Shift key. This should boot in Safe mode. If the computer boots normally (not in safe mode) and the keyboard is still not working, try resetting the SMC
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964>
    If that still doesn't fix the problem, then the keyboard (or its controller) is probably damaged and needs to be replaced.

    textedit doesn't open files. I think I have an old version, version 1.1. How do I update it?

    What OS are you on?
    Are you certain it is not compatible with this OS?
    Is there an error message presented?
    What type of file are you trying to open?
    TextEdit is a built in app, shipped with the OS, it can't be downloaded from the store, have you copied TextEdit from a backup or is it trying to run from a backup disk or other copy of the OS - Spotlight can sometimes find & try to run other versions. Eject any backup disks & retry.
    Try opening directly from /Applications (the Finders 'Go menu > Applications' will take you there).
    If you need to restore the App you will need to have it in a backup or use the OS installer.

    hi all, i bought iPhone 4s. while am trying to access my Appstore Genius app appearing that it doesn't have any recommendations. could any one solve my prob?

    After some troubleshooting, I decided to order a new battery.  I replaced the battery and was then able to get it to restore, however--after I restore it and it comes time to restart the phone, it gets stuck and doesn't turn on.
    Sorry, your repair ruined the iPhone.
    She does not have apple care and even though she loved this device, she isn't going to buy another iPhone because of all the problems shes had with this one (it's just over a year old).
    After you ruined the iPhone with DIY, Apple won't touch it anymore. You should have asked before all these had happened.
    I'm an android user myself and I love rooting/flashing new ROMS, so if jailbreaking her phone or doing some kind of super-restore with 3rd party programs might help, I'm all for it-
    Yeah, all Android user can think of is Jailbreaking, read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743
