U300s Trackpad does not appear in device manager
Recently I had an issue where I needed to reinstall windows. I downloaded a legitimate ISO and reinstalled it. When I went to reinstall all of the drivers, I had an issue with the TrackPad driver. I know it is a Cypress Touchpad. When I try to install the driver I get this error message: "Cannot find Cypress Trackpad!". It does not show up in the device manager (only my USB mouse is under the Mice and Keyboard menu.) My question is this: What can I do? I can't reflash the BIOS because I already have the latest one and WinFlash won't let you flash a BIOS with the same or earlier date on it. I have checked and the connection to the motherboard is very secure. What other options do I have? I'm not pleased in the least with this error. Any help is appreciated. I know computers well so if there are any solutions that are on the technical side, throw them at me! Thanks!
As a side note, I used a generic (read: non-OEM) windows ISO because Lenovo does not have a customized (OEM-specific) one easily accessable online.
System Overview:
Lenovo U300s
Intel Core i7-2677M @ 1.8Ghz
4GB RAM
Windows 7 64-Bit SP1
Hi, I recently upgraded to win8.1 and accidentally made it a fresh install soo it was pretty fresh... haha
Well, my touchpad was working but it wasn't recognized in the device manager, someone said that I may had to reinstall the driver that came installed when I bought it, Lenovo has them avaliable here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/default.page?#
After installing it the icon appeared again and I had the options avaliable in the device manager and everything... I think that may be the problem.

I recently purchased my iPod touch with no issues. After updating to iOS 8.1.1 I found that my iPod would no longer appear in the latest version of iTunes and when I searched for Apple Mobile Device usb driver in the device manager, it was nowhere to be found. I've already uninstalled and re-installed ALL components of iTunes and read every single help article. I've tried everything. What went wrong?
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I had a new hard drive replaced in my imac. Now my 1st generation apple TV does not appear under devices in itunes. How do I get my apple tv to connect to my computer? My OS is 10.6.8
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can't doing anything abouty this, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted. -
my iPod touch does not appear in Devices on my Mac, even though I can see it in iTunes. What to do?
Thank you so much! what a swift reply - I am amazed! but my main problem is trying to transfer an app bought in iTunes to my desktop Mac. I thought 'seeing' the iPod in Devices would make it easier, but I am stuck... Can you help?

If it is a version 2 ATV, it will not appear in iTunes except where you can select it for Airplay. With the new ATV2, you go in the opposite direction (ATV2 to iTunes) after you have enabled sharing. The ATV1 could both store (sync) and/or stream content. The new one cannot. The ATV2 will appear as an AirPlay device in iTunes and in the iPod and Video areas on an iPhone, iPad, etc.
If your ATV is a version 1, you will have to reset it and go through the setup process using iTunes.... -
using sucessfully airport express for internet
when hooking up new airport extreme light glows green, but does NOT appear in devices sesn in 5.6 airport wifi devices
wanting to use extreme at base and express in another part of the houseHow is the express getting internet? What modem is it plugged into?
How is the extreme setup? New extreme cannot be setup with 5.6 utility.. you must use latest 6.3. Which also means you cannot setup from computer using less than Lion .. or you must use iOS with latest utility but it has limited configuration cf the computer version.
IPv6 is also needed.. turn on local link. -
My iPad does not appear under "devices" in iTunes
When I connect my iPad 2 to my PC (Windows 7), it does not appear under "Devices". I have tried all the steps described in "Trouble-shooting". It does, however, recognize and show my iPod nano, when I connect that through the same USB. I have already deleted and reloaded iTunes 10.4 three times. Incidentally, I had no problem when I was using previous version of iTunes before I updated it 5 days back.
Thanks Rudegar.
Finally what worked? I removed all the Apple software files from my PC. Rebooted my PC. Downloaded iTunes afresh, saved and run it. Ah..ah.. my iPad was under the devices this time and it synchronised well. I am happy. Thanks

My ipod does not appear in device list
iTunes does not recognize my iPod Touch. It does not appear as a "device". What does appear is "Sync George Lance's iPod". There is no problem syncing but
can't manage the iPod. I have gone through the un-installing and re-installs of all of the Apple S/W to no avail.Keep in mind, the new iTunes is in a different format. To revert to a more familiar format:
In the top menu bar in iTunes, select
1. View
2. Show sidebar
Is the device now on the more familiar left hand pane or still not recognized

IPad does not appear in devices list on itunes
When I connect iPad to laptop it does not appear in the iTunes devices list. I have tried all the recommended Apple support actions reinstalling iTunes etc but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your tip. It didn't work in quite the way you outlined but it did help me to get my IPad recognised by ITunes. When I did what you suggested ITunes came back with something like ' can't connect to your IPad because the driver is missing, delete and reinstall ITunes to resolve this problem' . When I did that the IPad appeared in the Devices list.
I assume from this that the device driver was defective. Many thanks. -

Hp officejet 4500 prints but does not appear in devices and printers in Windows 7
My wireless hp officejet 4500g prints fine wirelessly but it does not appear in Control Panel Devices and Printers in Windows 7. Do I have to go through all that uninstall and reinstall. I've used Window 7 Troubleshooting Printer check and all was fine.. Thanks for any help
Hi,
If the printer successfully print, it do exists within Devices and Printers..
Windows 7 may merge several devices into a single icon, right clicking a merged icon will let you then choose the specific device as you may see in the following screenshot as a sample:
Check any existing printer icon and locate the one your printer combined with..
If none of the printers does not list the 4500 printer make sure to right click the Computer icon within the Devices category, I notiice the printer sometimes merged within the computer as well, then you will see any printer options (e.g. Printer Properties, Printing Preferences within the computer menu.
Hope that may help,
Shlomi

Ipod does not appear in file manager
I have an iPad Mini running OS 7.0.4. I can no longer see this in File Manaager under Windows 7. yet iTunes is fine with it. Any ideas?
When I try to restore it comes up with an error message (there has been a range of numbers). The I touch works, just not with itunes.
Sometimes it recognises and tries to restore. Other times it does not recognise.
I have read on a forum to change the letter assigned to a drive but I cannot see a letter assigned in the disk manager to be able to reassign.
I have changed and reinstalled the Apple mobile device support .
The problem seem to start after an update.
I have spent hours trying to solve this, any advice would be great! -
New SCSI drive does not appear in disk manager - what can I do?
I am working on an older HP ML350G4
It has server 2003 installed.
It has run out of memory, so I added another drive. I rebooted, and went to format it but !! not in disc manager.
I cannot find it anywhere. There's no unrecognised devices in devmgr, yet it does not sghow up in disk manager either.
Please give me some advice as to what I have done wrong/can do to get it up?Hi VW Crank,
“I added another drive. I rebooted” are you installed the new disk then you can not found your system volume? It most possible is you need install the RAID array driver after
you install the new server.
The related HP support forum information:

How to setup a 1262 aironet for Wireless N over 54mb
I've been trying to figure this out as the documentation leads me to think this can only be set to 54mb on wireless N. How can I configure a "AIR-LAP1262N-A-K9" to have wireless speeds over 54mb? The config guide only shows settings for up to 54, but
