U330 Bios v.68? Anyone still have this available? Still having white bar issues.
Requesting u330 bios update v.68 beta.
Had put away the u330 into storage last year thinking it was unfixable due to a broken LCD. Learned through reading through the massive discussion, http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-7-Discussion/U330-Windows-7-Drivers-Problem-amp-Solutions/td-p/1... , it was fixable bios/driver issue concerning the graphics cards. The link for the v68 bios update no longer exists on the thread.
What I did: Per instructions, Flashed with v.67 (latest from Lenovo website). Then fresh install of Windows 64 and updated everything through Windows.
This fixed the power issue and most of the white bar issue. There are a few lines that pop up sometimes and the bar sometimes flashes on and off depending on the graphics use. For example, when I wash something on youtube or hulu.
New issue: Doesn't detect the discrete ATI card. Only the integrated Intel card is shown on device driver and the bios doesn't allow me to enable vtx/discrete card or whatever. ATI is nowhere to be detected. Tried installing ati and the new amd catalyst drivers and neither can detect the driver either.
Reading through the thread indicated that the bios 68 beta would solve my the switching issue and the remaining white bar issues. So I gotta ask. Does anyone have it available????
I can't imagine that it is really a hardware problem... It only happens for me when there is some kind of moving graphics on the screen and it isn't at the front of the windows or switching between windows. And it all kind of depends on whether I'm running programs with moving graphics or am at websites with graphics/video. For example, if I go to the Hulu homepage (which has a changing banner) and then simultaneously open the start menu or a folder in windows, the flashing white bar appears. In this case, the moving graphics is now "behind" the start menu or the window. But if I then click on the maximized homepage again, the flashing white bar disappears. Interestingly, this seems to happen only when I use Google Chrome as my browser. I can also make it reliably happen by just going to the desktop. Pressing on the bottom of the screen doesn't help me at all.
Given that this problem started for many people around the same time, which, to me, suggests that maybe there was a update to the graphics card or windows update that led to some kind of funky incompatibility.
Do other people have "symptoms" that are as specific as mine? Maybe we have multiple problems here ...

my phone doesn't ring when someone is calling, but the sound works otherwise, like the alarm etc. I have tried to fix it in settings but still not working. anyone else have this problem?
Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue! -
I can't login to Facebook from the app or on Safari. Is anyone else have this issue? I deleted FB from my iPhone 4 and reinstalled it. Still didn't work.
Make sure you have checked off iCloud contacts in your Contacts app under Groups in upper left corner.

I have recently got pages and have tried to upload my CV (using pages) to certain graduate jobs and it doesn't seem to register them as still asks me to 'select a file'. Does anyone else have this problem?
Menu > File > Export > Word or PDF
Virtually no businesses have Pages to be able to read .pages files.
Definitely not those with PCs, because there is no version of Pages for PCs.

The sound on all of my game apps and my alerts has stopped working. Still works for Netflix, Hulu, YouTube... Anything video related. Anyone else have this problem or know what I should do to fix it?
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

signed up twice for adobe pdf export to word and still not working - anyone else have this problem?
In XI.
I can’t just export to word as I have done in the past in one simple click.
Convert to button is greyed out.
Now I have to save the pdf file on c drive when I am in outlook…then goto export pdf file…then find file then export to word.
I bought new computer with windows 8 (which is awful) and then bought pdf export again…
Any thoughts on how I can get back to one simple click again when I open a pdf file from an email in outlook?
Thank you,

it has been 24 hours and Siri still doesn't want to take any commands anyone else have this problem too? and how can I fix it? she just keeps saying there is something wrong and to try again later. I didn't buy this phone to be jipped on any features.
Mine wasnt working either but i saw in another thread that you should try Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. Ignore the warnings, all your settings have to be changed back but you dont lose any media or data, you just have to put your background back and location settings. It fixed Siri for me but dictation still doesnt work. Hopefully it works for you :-]

Does anyone else have this video problem?!?!?
So, This is ATV #2. The first one got sent back because during play, after 30 mins, TV would go black. ATV light would still be on, but no audio, video......Also when in standby, no audio/video would work when We brought it out of standby.
ATV #2 didn't have any problems...... Till now. Now it plays, but like the last one, when in standby, doesn't want to come out....No audio/video..... At first thinking it was the ATV, but could it be the tv?
I have a 46" Sony Bravia...Everything else works fine on the TV. Does anyone else have this problem of it not waking up from standby????
It's driving me crazy!!! Any help or advice will be much appreciated!!!!!!Next time it happens switch to a different input on the TV, then switch back and see if you have video, or turn the TV off and then turn it back on again. It's possible it could be the TV, for example, if it ignores the input after a certain period of inactivity and fails to detect when the ATV comes out of standby. It could be an HDMI issue between the ATV and your TV. A number of people have experienced HDMI anomalies with specific make and model TVs.

After updating to IOS8, my iPad 2, which has both AT&T cellular and wifi, needs to be completely turned off and rebooted to get cellular service. Does anyone else have this issue ?
Hi Hi Steve Giusto,
If you are having issues with Xxx_state issue here_xxX, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
HT5137
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
HT1430
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

I downloaded a movie to my Air, but it won't sync to my ipad2 and says it's not authorized. It's not a rental. Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve?
I ended up having a one hour conversation with Apple Support which evolved to handing over control of my screen and then eventually having to use Terminal. I wish I could remember the command but it's probably best I don't.
One thing we looked at right away was the account name used to dowload the movie. Is it the same as the account name you have saved on your iPad. That's easy to check and would be great if that is all that's needed to correct. Good luck.
Here's also an email I got from Support that could solve your problem if it's not as difficult as my issue was.
I would like to inform you that this issue can occur if iOS (your device's operating system) on your device needs to be updated. It can also happen if the computer you're trying to sync from has not been authorized to play purchases you are trying to sync.
I suggest that you first see if updating iOS on your iPad resolves the issue. This article will walk you through the process:
Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If there are still purchases that won't sync to your device after you update its software, I suggest reauthorizing your computer. To do so, follow these steps:
1) Open iTunes.
2) From the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Deauthorize Computer.
3) Enter your account name and password, then click Deauthorize.
4) Now from the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Authorize Computer.
5) Enter your account name and password, then click Authorize.
Once your computer has been authorized, try syncing your device again. If the same issue happens, I suggest reviewing the following articles:

iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod

Having Problems Updating iTunes 10.6.3, it wont update when I click the download button to update the itunes. What should I do to fix the issue? And does Anyone esle have this problem?
Just want to update the problem everybody is having downloading the new update. If you waited, and didn't try to reinstall or anything, it looks like a "fix" is coming to you. My previous ITunes was working fine so I decided to just wait it out and see if Apple would fix it. Knew it wasn't my computer because of all the same questions in this forum. And I want to let all to know that when I signed on to my computer today an Apple Software Update window popped up on my desktop. (Not the little one we've all been clicking on from the ITunes screen.). This came up right on my desktop. I clicked on it to download and it worked like a charm. After it was done downloading I pulled up ITunes and all looked great, all my purchases, songs were still there. I then plugged in my IPod and then my IPad and they both synced, etc., ....all is well again! So it you didn't try to re-install or anything, and have just been waiting and using your current version of ITunes, be patient. Looks like the fix will be coming to you, too.

after the update, my time, name, etc - all disappeared from the right upper finder bar. Anyone else have this issue?
First, make sure they are all still enabled in the respective System Preferences.
If the are, then do you have any third-party menu extras? They will often interfere with the others if they are not compatible. -
I've been "updating" GarageBand for 4 days. I know it's a huge download, but I've had other that sailed through. Anyone else have this problem?
Help! I thought my problem w/ updating garage band was over--but it's not. I'm still stuck. Now I get a msg that the app won't update. And I can't even access it at all. Obviously, I do not know what I am doing. Would some wise kind soul have pity on a dumb blonde old lady and help me w/ this?
I will be most appreciative for any help.
I await your instructions...
Thx
