Twist s230u trackpad haywire since update to Windows 10

My trackpad and trackpoint worked fine under Windows 8.1, but since I updated to Windows 10 they have gone haywire.  The cursor moves in the opposite direction from the movement on the trackpad or trackpoint.  If I move my finger right on the trackpad, the cursor on the display moves left.  If I move my finger up, the cursor moves down.  Sometimes the cursor moves in the correct direction, but then it goes to the opposite direction after a single tap.   I have tried two different driver versions for the Synaptics Thinkpad Ultranav driver for Windows 10 - 19.0.16.0 (driver date 7/9/2015), and 19.0.12.61 (this version is currently available for download on the Lenovo s230u driver download page).  The 19.0.12.61 is the lower version number but it is listed as dated 7/30/2015.  I have had the problem described above with both versions.  I ran "Update Driver" from Device Manager and 19.0.16.0 was installed over 19.0.12.61.   I tried deleting the Synaptics driver altogther, and rebooted - after i reinstalled a driver the problem came back. Has anybody else had this problem since upgrading to Windows 10?  Has anybody found a fix?    

I have had the same problem with my 12-inch 1.5GHz powerbook. However in my case it just started happening out of the blue -- the trackpad doesn't work at all, and occasionally I'll check again and it will work (otherwise, just using a USB mouse).
I was running OS X 10.4.5 when this occurred and I thought an upgrade to 10.4.6 would help, but it didn't. I am wary of upgrade to newest version of OS X because I have firewire peripherals that take time to update their drivers to work with Mac OS updates, but I will update to 10.4.7 if I absolutely have to.
I will try repairing permissions, but I doubt that will help. I've already reset the PMU (first time for me on this powerbook -- holding down 3 buttons and pressing and releasing power button -- there's no confirmation I can see that PMU was reset). Is there a way to tell PMU was successfully reset?
Thanks!

    Since updating my windows 7 to the latest version, my itouch notes are not synchronising properly. Will only update from Outlook to Itouch but not the other way round. Any suggestions?

    That's the problem.  You keep restoring corrupt software.  Restore as NEW and don't use the backup at all.  Set the phone up from scratch.

  • Printer Problems since updateing to WIndows 8.1

    Before I updated to Windows 8.1 the other month everything was fine on my new laptop then I went to scan something from my HP Photosmart B109n and it didn't work because the driver was now missing and the HP app that replace the HP printer manager is useless.
    On the advice of the HP site I tried to download the new driver but it wouldn't go, it said I had to remove the exsisting installation but when I try it just restarts the computer but is still there afterwards. It turns out that the uninstall has gone missing from the current and the install is missing from the install program I have downloaded.
    As a last resort I used the sytem restore but not only has the printer issues not changed but now some of the pre-loaded apps won't work and are asking for the Developers Licence to be renewed.
    I am at a lost as to what to do next - please help!

    Your notebook isn’t known to me but in case of Win 8.1 update you should check this Toshiba update to Win 8.1 page: http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/gen...ws8_1-message/
    There you can check if the Win 8.1 is supported on your notebook and how to perform the step-by-step update to Windows 8.1
    Some drivers must be uninstalled and updated after the Win 8.1 update installation!
    Regarding your printer issue:
    Every printer manufacturer provides own drivers for the Windows system.
    It’s not known to me if HP released compatible Win 8.1 drivers for the own Photosmart B109n printer but to be honest this issue isn’t related to the Toshiba notebook. If you have problems using HP printer in connection with Win 8.1, you should visit the printer manufacturer support page to get some workarounds and troubleshooting tips.

  • Can't connect to speakers via bluetooth since updating to Windows 8

    Hello all. I have an HP Pavilion dm4 3050 laptop. I have spent a lot of time trying to fix my bluetooth problems since updating to 8, and now I need some help!
    I go into add a device in a the CP and the machine finds the bluetooth speakers and I add them. I then right click them-> sound settings, then see my speakers below the default device speakers. They are listed as disconnected so I right click them and try to connect but they won't connect. I have updated the Intel bluetooth drivers but the speakers still won't connect. What can I do? Thank you.

    BTW it would be nice if the driver update scanner actually worked on the HP website. 

  • Problems since update from Windows 8 to 8.1

    So the other day the Windows 8.0 side of my 27-inch, Late 2013 iMac with Fusion drive forced me up update to Windows 8.1 - it just started doing it automatically when I was on my lunchbreak.  It seemed to update fine, and everything seemed to work once it booted up in 8.1.  I noticed that the sound was no longer working on the Windows 8.1 side - it would only make the startup sound after a restart/turning on, and there was a red light coming out of the audio jack.  Sound worked fine on the Mac side still.  So, I updated the drivers here (Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5640) based on my computer model.  During the instal of the drivers, it said "Need to repair drivers", and then went on to install without any problems that I could see.
    This has now fixed the Sound driver issue, but now my keyboard is stuck in French mode (I think?) where when I type the "/?" character, it types "é" or "É".  I cannot seem to fix this by going into Languages in Control Panel, or by re-installing the drivers.
    What can I do?  Are there any more details I can give to help someone problem solve this with me?

    Hi,
    For the issue, let us try rebuilding performance counters to check the result.
    Press Win+x, and click Command Prompt(admin)
    Type "CD c:\windows\system32",and Enter.
    Type "LODCTR /R", and Enter.
    Note: This let you rebuild the perf registry strings and info from scratch based on the current registry settings and backup INI files.
    Keep post.

  • Issues since updating to Windows 8.1

    Hello, 
    So I hope that this is the appropriate forums to be posting about this, if not don't hesitate to point me in the right direction.
    The issue I've been having since the time I have updated is that, my desktop background goes black, and the task bar becomes all buggy. Nothing I've searched for has helped fix it. the issues include the taskbar icons ( chrome, battlenet,steam,etc.) become
    buggy, like their images arent actually there, the background goes black and everything runs slowly, and some programs start to bug ( example, skype conversation appearing in the top left corner of the box, while typing in it.) When I reboot the system its
    as if nothing ever happened and its smooth sailing for a while then boom its back, Now could it be something to do with my hardware or that im using a 2nd monitor? Any help would be highly appreciated thanks 

    Hi,
    How did you upgrade to Windows 8.1? Pleaes make sure that you're using a setup.exe\iso\media pack from a genuine resource, or you might get an awful system.
    And did you upgrade to windows 8.1 from Windows 8 or Windows 7? Did you run a Upgrade Assistant before upgrading to Windows 8.1, the Upgrade Assistant can detect some software and hardware compatibility issues. Just as mentioned in the following link:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-8/upgrade-from-windows-7-tutorial
    Regarding to the "2nd monitor", do you mean a 2nd external minotor? if so, what is the result if we unplug the device, then boot to the system to check the performance, meanwhile, make sure to keep the latest driver for the monitor if you use it.

  • Why can't I download anything since updateing to windows 8.1

    Thanks for your time up front. I have been using FF for years and really enjoy it. 99% of all I do is in FF. Since moving to Win 8.1, whenever I need to download something I must open another tab or window. For documents or pictures that's fine, unnecessary step, but fine. However on secure sites like a bank, this will not work. If I do not open another tab/window the download just dies/vanishes/stops and if I open the tab/windows the secure site just reloads itself but does not download. Other browsers work fine but I prefer FF. I have tried the basic steps suggested to others with this problem but they do not work i.e. clear download folder, reset downloads, etc. Suggestions would be appreciated.

    Does this happen with downloads from every page? What happens exactly? Do you have to actually right click on the download link and open it in a new tab/window for the download to start? Also, try downloading things in Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem still happens. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode How to enter safe mode.]

  • Since updating Safari windows won't close

    I updated to 10.4.11 on my G5 and now whenever I open a window in Safari, I can't close it. I tried apple-w ... nothing. I tried clicking the red button in the top left corner of the window ...nothing (although the green and yellow buttons still work fine).
    Anyone else having this problem?

    A lot of people who had installed Taboo (a safari plug in that gives a warning when closing a window with multiple tabs open) have been having this problem.
    This causes a conflict with Safari 3 and won't allow you to close windows. All you have to do is remove Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/Taboo!!
    Fortunately the warning feature is included in Safari 3, making Taboo redundant.
    Taboo worked so seamlessly that I had completely forgotten that I had it installed!!! If you are not sure, check the location above to see if the bundle is there and delete it if it is.
    hope it helps

    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having some printing issues when attempting to print from the Internet using Internet Explorer.
    Are you able to print from any program on the computer?
    Try using Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome when printing from the web and see if that makes a difference.

  • Twist s230u will Window 10 be out of the question

    When I bought my twist I upgraded too:
    - 8 Gig ram
    - i7 processor
    - Windows 8
    However since the product is discontinued will I loose out on a free upgrade to Window 10?
    Would love to get some feedback here?

    I installed the Windows 10 upgrade via Windows Update today on my ThinkPad Twist s230u. I did run into two problems... The installation failed with an error code of 80240020. This error means that the installation folder hasn't finished downloading or is corrupted. I did a quick google search and found out how to fix the problem. Here are two articles that show how to force Windows Update to redownload the upgrade and start over... RedditHow to force Windows to start downloading the Windows 10 update filesAfter I got the update to start over, Windows 10 installed and booted up just fine. Once the update was complete, I noticed that a few icons were missing from my desktop, like Bitdefender. So I downloaded the current version of Bitdefender Internet Security 2015 and installed it. After installation, I rebooted my machine and I could no longer access the Internet via wireless. Did another google search, on another machine, and found an article that explained that I should turn Stealth Mode to Off. Went into Protection -> Firewall -> Adapters and set Stealth Mode to Off. Low and behold, the Internet started working again. So far I haven't run into any other problems. I'll post again if I see any other issues. -Myles

  • Thinkpad Twist S230u: Clean Install - Windows 8 on Custom Partition

    I want to install Windows 8 using my own partition configuration, meaning where I'd get a C and a D drive. On my other computers, this is what I have and I really like this configuration. I want to install Windows 8 on the C drive and have all my data on D. I have reformatted and partitioned the HDD to C and D. When I slot in Windows 8 Enterprise to install, I keep getting this message "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one." What the machine keeps wanting is for me to delete both partitions and create its own partitions and I don't want this. I know it wants this because I have clicked delete of the partitions and looked to see what it would do. It ended up creating several of its own partitions (not at all how I want it). When I re-partitioned the drive back to C and D (2 partition config), it would repeat that same error message.
    Can someone please help tell me how do I install Windows 8 doing my own custom partition (C, D) where Win 8 is installed onto my choice of C and D is left for my data. Why does it keep saying, "We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one"? Is it a settings in BIOS that I need to change to enable me to use my own partition? If so, what setting? I have never had these issues installing Win 8 using the C & D partition config on 3 other computers (not Lenovo S230u Twist).
    Thanks for your help!!! :-)

    Hello LightspeedX!
    I glad you wrote this issue cause i still having the same problem (and questions).
    I decided to put everithing down on my s230u because it is quietly irritant see a last generation porcessor like the I7 on a top plataform ultrabook running so slowly like our thinkpad do.
    Since the embed software and the poor resource planning is the resposable for that issue, i really cant imagine why Lenovo decide to bring all this things up together at this device. I realize that any cheap I3 china device is more confortable and "quickly" to run any software than this machine in his original state (factory defaults), so i decid to try a brand new and clean installation of windows 8 or (perhaps) a dual boot configuration using a linux frindly distro like ubuntu.
    At my own risc, like the cusummer service like to say, i will erase all HD and start this "saga" (making a full hard copy first, of course and will soon bring any results i found here.

  • I downloaded the latest important update to windows vista yesterday, and since then Firefox crashes very soon after enetering the portal of any website I visit, and I want to know if the windows vista update could be doing this?

    Yesterday (23rd March) my computer appeared to perform an auto update of windows vista and since then every time time use firefox it crashes shortly after entering a web portal (after about 1-5 seconds). It even crashes on the BBC news page which I always use to check stability. I have been using Firefox for years and it has just started doing this. However, I examined the programme files and actaully cannot see a windows vista update for yesterday, but I can see that there was a Firefox update, so now I'm a bit confused. Looking at the program files in more details it appears that there was a very major update of Firefox taking place including lots of file extensions. You should also know that your password recovery process doesn't work. I never got the email that is supposed to help me recover a lost password. I am really disappointed with Firefox doing this. It's costing me time and money. Can you help before I give up and go back to using Windows explorer (ugh!). I have thought of simply removing Firefox and starting again with a new download but that might not solve the probelm and I will lose my bookmarks.

    I have an update to my message posted yesterday regarding Firefox crash after vista update. Today it got worse when Firefox wouldn't open at all and Windows explorer also stopped working. Curiously, email was still working, and when I checked another (little used) account on the same PC, I got a perfect connection with Firefox and Explorer. I had to conclude that the latest updates of Vista have interacted with some application only found in my main account on the PC. I tried opening Firefox in its safe mode and I tried opening explorer without Plug ins, but neither worked. Finally I decided the only answer was to do a system restore and wind back the windows software to where it was before the problem. I now have Firefox and explorer restored to working order, but I still don't understand why, because I got a message saying the system restore hasn't worked. Full Comprehension of the cause is beyond my capability, but through trial and error as described above I seem to have fixed it. The suspect vista updates are KB2505189 , and KB2524375.
