U330 Diagnostics Program and Keyboard Sensor Issues

I'm sorry if this has been posted before but I've been searching for awhile now and can't find it.
I was wondering if there was any type of diagnostics program for the U330 to test my cpu, fans and the general hardware.
Also i was wondering if anyone else with the U330 notices any keyboard sensor issues. Such as, I have to press firmly in the middle of the keys for it to register. Or I have to press firmly on the "T" or "Y" button for it to register the click. It's very bothersome and I was wondering if anyone else with a U330 has a similar issue?

What do you mean by testing cpu/fan/ram? You can test cpu by OCCT or S&M and you can test RAM by memtest86+
Regarding keyboard - you should have it replaced, it's a common faoult in some ideapads.

Help: z10 stl002 proximity and light sensor issue

Proximity and light sensor not supported message on BBVE, both sensors stop working

I have BlackBerry z10 and I had the same problem ( proximity sensor was not working while being on call) and it started only available the update 10.3.1.1565. Then I noticed that my sensor was working before the update, that meant that hardware was okay. It might be the problem with the update. But I had got a new glass guard for the protection of my phone screen, I thought to remove it and then check. To my surprise, now it is working fine. I suggest you, if you also have some screen guard or glass guard on your phone, remove it and then check if it works. For me it did.

Develop a Integrated Report of Program and Project Risks, Issues and Opportunities from Project Sites

Does anyone know if it is possible to create an integrated report of all program / project risks, issues and opportunities as identified on project sites? We plan on having our project teams identify and manage these on their project sites but would like
to ability to roll this information up into a report for management review. Need to know if this is possible and how it might be done. Thanks.

Hi,
are you asking for a Reporting Services Report? You can find this information in Reporting DB (2010) resp. schema dbo for reporting (2013).
Here a simple query:
SELECT PROJ.ProjectName
, ISSUE.Title AS Issue
, RISK.Title AS Risk
FROM dbo.MSP_EpmProject_UserView AS PROJ
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.MSP_WssIssue_OlapView AS ISSUE ON PROJ.ProjectUID = Issue.ProjectUID
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.MSP_WssRisk_OlapView AS RISK ON RISK.ProjectUID = PROJ.ProjectUID
Or are you looking for something different?

Random program and keyboard problems with Leopard OS X 10.5 ,,A Virus?

I have been using Leopard for about a year now with no problems. I normally only restart my mac once a week as it is so stable compared to my pc's. In the last week I have been having random problems with a program on one screen closing as I close another one. All files in photoshop closing at the same time when I only click one to close. And the keyboard seems to type random symbols instead of letters this continues until I restart then can return after a day or so though today the keyboard started its random symbols only 4-5 hrs after restarting. Has anyone any ideas as to what is going on and how to fix it. Seems like a virus to me.. and there are not a lot of programs you can use to check for problems on the mac as virus's and things are so rare.

Sorry for the delay in continuing this topic. I was snowed under with work pre Christmas and had to leave the problem until now. However I have got to the bottom of the cause but am still struggling to resolve it. I tracked the problem to the Wacom driver I use for my Intuos 3 tablet. When I checked the about button for the version number I got a little animation instead with a few lines saying it was the wacom engineer monster who liked to cause mischief. and the line "Enjoy using your Wacom Tablet!!
I deleted the driver and reloaded the latest one from the wacom website, checked the version button and no animation. So I thought I had solved it. But when tonight the keyboard started to type wrong characters again I checked and there it was again. I think this means this piece of malware is hiding on the mac somewhere but where should I look?

Unibody Macbook display issue and keyboard backlight issues while booting

I have a 13" aluminum macbook which has been having some issues when booting up. The machine seems to be booting just fine all the way up to the log in screen. The display is normal and everything seems fine. After I log in, the various pieces of the screen start to display (desktop icons, menu bar, etc) and my wallpaper is visible. After a few seconds, the display seems to degrade and the wallpaper image is visible but distorted. It is almost as if the machine is in some sort of safe mode (pardon the windows reference).
Normally, I have my macbook connected to an external display and external mouse/keyboard. After a reboot, this issue occurs. If I put the macbook in sleep mode, and then wake it by clicking the external mouse, the display reappears normally and everything is fine.
The problem is when I am NOT connected to these external devices. The screen stays distorted (like it has lost its full color range) and there are other issues. The keyboard backlight seems to be disables and highlighting text does not work normally. I have tried rebooting, removing the battery and rebooting, resetting the SMC, removing recent applications (chrome, quicklook, etc.). Has anyone heard of or experienced this behavior?
Thanks.

Have you called Applecare? If you sent the machine in and it came back with a cracked case, that seems like an Apple repair to me.
As for the display issue - I think I would accept it and move on. Unfortunately, with these ever-higher resolution displays, we have more dead pixels. Since no one would pay $3000 for a display with 100% no dead pixel guarantee, Apple has to alot for a few dead pixels being acceptable inorder to keep prices reasonable.

ITunes and keyboard backlight issues

Hi, i know that this question has been asked before, but was not answered, so ill try again to see if anyone has a solution.
When using iTunes, if i skip forward or backward a track, using either the iTunes GUI or the function buttons (F7 and F9) the back light on the keyboard will turn off completely. The only way, it seems, to turn the back light is to press the back light keys, which can be annoying to find when im working in the dark.
(also, strangely, when i press skip back once, ie restart currently playing track, the keys do not turn off, it is only when the track changes :s )
Thanks

I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM! I recently downloaded iSpazz but I didn't like it and deleted the plug-in. Ever since then, my backlight has been turning off every time I change songs in iTunes. I have deleted the iTunes App completely, and all its related files and reinstalled it from scratch.. And still NOTHING! It is frustrating the **** out of me. Although it is only a minor problem, it is rather annoying! PLEASE help us!

U330 + Windows 7 and Switchable Graphics Issue

Just installed the beta version of Windows 7. Only problem I'm having is dealing with switchable graphics. Can't really get it to switch between graphics card. I think it's using ATI which is drawing too much power. Anyone know a way around this? I don't expect this laptop to support Windows 7 yet but it's nice if anyone got any answers.

Maybe right, even if Windows 7 is just a rebuild of Vista kernel and such. When I try to switch to performance I notice the USB device connected sound. And the disconnection sound right away (0,1sec later). I hope lenovo will support Win7 on our laptops too

Photoshop Photography Program and customer support issue

Hello,
I registered to the usual one app plan membership a couple of days ago (this is the first month). I just now noticed this great deal you are offering, Ps + Lr for 12.50eur / month and I'd like to know how can I switch to it.
I'm waiting for half an hour on the phone on your customer support line and your chat is not working either, stucked at "2 customers in line ahead of you."

Solved, after 40 minutes on hold on the phone. Luckily hangouts has a free plan, because no way I would have stayed on call for so long, from Europe. Chat is still dead in the water.

Balky, frozen mouse and keyboard

Since installing OS 10.4.6, my USB keyboard and mouse quickly bog down, coming to a halt altogether. The mouse starts out as responsive as usual, but soon stops tracking adequately. The feel is as if the mouse is "bogged down" with too many instructions. I can unplug the USB cable to the keyboard and mouse and the problem will go away for a very short while, but then it is soon back. I can use a tablet stylus with absolutely no problem. Does anyone know what's going on here? It's extremely aggravating.

Same thing is now happening to me ... it created a problem
where there wasn't one before.
Sorry to hear it, Steven. No solution from anyone anywhere, so I assume we are the few that experience this and we have no recourse but to wait for the next patch/update. I hope someone from Apple is monitoring these discussions closely, because this problem makes me want to chuck my entire system. I have found that unplugging and re-plugging the USB cable (it's in a factory-installed, direct USB socket) will clear the clog temporarily. I updated the driver for my Wacom tablet, so I can mouse around with that. I can't enter anything from the keyboard when that USB cable gets clogged. Anyone else out there have mouse and keyboard stoppage issues? HELP!

Erratic Mouse and Keyboard issues...with weird console log...

Hello All,
I recently installed Snow Leopard on my 2x2.8 Quad Core Mac Pro following a boot drive melt down. Apple replaced the drive via Apple Care and I re-installed all my apps. The only additional item of note is I have Lycom SATA four port card that required a driver update.
Since setting up this machine with the new OS I am having massive issues with keyboard lag, erratic mouse movement and intermittent freezing.
I've run tech tools deluxe and everything passes with that app. I cant find the original install disks so running AHT on this machine isn't going to happen.
I've tried with and without the driver and the issue seems to still be there.
On a whim I opened console and I am seeing this message hundreds and hundreds of times over...
8/8/10 2:21:11 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (org.xinetd.xinetd[2652]) Exited with exit code: 1

Anyone got any thoughts on this?

Jstys92,
Heat? Motherboard? Sounds like hardware since it's across Operating systems...
If you have a warranty, this is the time to call HP.

If not, I still think you have a HW issue. It is relatively consistant, too. Like something is breaking down - physically. Not a disk - BIOS... notherboard... something that holds everything together.
Computers are not supposed to warm up and then start doing whatever they want.
We do not live it in that world, at least not yet.

Wireless mouse and Keyboard Issue after closing the lid - external display

Can anyone give any insight. Recent purchase of a new Late 2008 15" MBP. I have connected it to an external 24" Apple monitor on my desk and use a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard on my desk top. I have configured the laptop to wake on bluetooth devices. So here is the problem: The laptop when the lid is up recognizes the bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I close the lid/screen. Laptop powers down... the after several seconds I move the mouse and the laptop comes alive... But after that there are no bluetooth devices attached. When I use the mouse, I get "connection lost" with a white figure of the mighty mouse on the screen. The wireless keyboard is not there and I have to open the lid and manually find the mouse and reconnect. The keyboard seems to work however....
Apple..... any thoughts..... anyone?????

Hi Stentdoc; I'm thinking, 'connection lost ~= sorta low AA batteries in the Mighty Mouse? (I would put in fresh AA batteries in the mouse and keyboard, to eliminate as an issue that the 'connection lost' is due to low batt voltage; that this is causing the failure to wake.) ... then, in System Preferences > Hardware > Energy Saver, settings for Power Adapter > Sleep, set to "never" for "Put the computer to sleep when it is inactive for ..." to eliminate that as a conflict when trying to wake with bluetooth from sleep induced by closing the lid ...
Check your current "Sleep" setup (I left my MBP as "3")
go to Utilities > Terminal
After you launch Terminal, the first step is to determine which sleep mode your Mac is currently using. You can both view and change the sleep mode using the Unix program pmset. To see your current settings, type (or, copy and paste)
pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
press 'enter'
You should see something like this:
$ pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
hibernatemode 3
So your machine is using mode 3 ... thanks to the documentation for the handy Deep Sleep Dashboard widget, which puts your machine immediately into hibernation mode (so you don’t have to yank all the power sources to invoke it):
* 0 - Old style sleep mode, with RAM powered on while sleeping, safe sleep disabled, and super-fast wake.
* 1 - Hibernation mode, with RAM contents written to disk, system totally shut down while “sleeping,” and slower wake up, due to reading the contents of RAM off the hard drive.
* 3 - The default mode on machines introduced since about fall 2005. RAM is powered on while sleeping, but RAM contents are also written to disk before sleeping. In the event of total power loss, the system enters hibernation mode automatically.
also, I enabled this (to change back, input "lidwake 1":
go to Utilities > Terminal
type in sudo pmset lidwake 0 then "enter"
it will ask for your password. type it in, that's it!
Now, when your computer is sleeping with the lid closed, when you open the lid nothing happens until you press any key ... nice: keeps it off when accidentally opened, like in a backpack?

I have a serious (and bizarre!) issue with my novation impulse (Although i've tried it with two other keyboards and i still have the same problem) and its compatibility with mainstage 3

i have a serious (and bizarre!) issue with my novation impulse (Although i've tried it with two other keyboards and i still have the same problem) and its compatibility with mainstage 3.
the problem is best explained on the following one - page thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3951518?start=0&tstart=0
(Clearly i'm not alone in this problem, although i think i figured out what's going wrong a little more than he did...read on!)
his solution, to put mainstage in jump mode, is very unsatisfactory to me, as it bounces all of a sudden to drastically different settings.
basically, my analysis is that my controller is NOT receiving MIDI date from mainstage. in other words, mainstage knows what my controller is doing, but my controller doens't know what mainstage is doing.
let's say i turn the knob all the way to the right ... 127...and the virtual fader goes to the right like it's supposed to.
now...next...let's say i change to a different patch, where that same VIRTUAL fader is not at the max clockwise position..maybe it's only at 1pm. now when i turn the physical knob to the RIGHT, the midi data is still at 127 on the controller! it didn't "reset" to sync up with the new level (say 80 or so) setting on the new patch. so i can't increase that new setting of 80 by continuing to turn the knob to the right. i have to turn it all the way to zero,...and then continue PAST zero until the controller thinks that IT is at 0...at that point the controller and mainstage are in agreement, and things work fine....so bascially, the keyboard thinks the level is at max...but mainstage thinks the level is at 1pm.
i am using Logic 9, and i have a macbook pro 2.9 Ghz I7 with 8 gigs of memory and OS X 10.8.4
