Warning from Lenovo re: using the workaround to get TVSU working with SP2

In the OSs section the entry for SP2 is missing. You need to adapt the file according to YOUR SYSTEM OS. Just add it at the end of the OSs section.
Do this at your own risk.  TVSU will not be supported on Vista SP 2 until we release a version we've qualified with it.  While this mod will make the client recognize Vista SP 2 as the installed OS, it will do nothing to compensate for deeper code issues between the client, the packages and the service pack.

Full disclosure: Lenovo issues my paychecks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

All,
Lenovo has released a patch to allow TVSU to run under Vista SP2.

  • I can't map a network drive from Windows 7, using the exact same settings that work fine with Vista or XP

    I have Windows 7  64 bit Home Premium,and I can't map a network drive.  I use a Cisco VPN client to connect to my University network, and then when I go to map the drive I get a message that it can't be found.  I have done web research it seems that I am unable to edit the local security settings (apparently you can do this in Ultimate and Professional versions), and that this may be the culprit.  Does Microsoft make some patch available?  My IT people, and the tech help at HP are baffled by this.  If Windows 7 Home Premium does not allow for mapping of network drives, then I'm dumping it and returning to Vista.  Has anybody had similar problems?

    Day 2 of trying to map a drive in Windows 7 Professional:
    My journey to ____..
    Begins:
    I purchased Windows 7 Home 3xuser license pack for ~140 US I kep hearing friend sayhow much faster it was than Vista 32bit so I thought hey let’s “upgrade”
    .. I looked up the definition of the word “upgrade” the following is what I found:
    1.
    To exchange a possession for one of greater value or quality; trade up.
    2.
    Computer Science
    To replace software or hardware with an upgrade.
    3.
    Computer Science
    a.
    To replace (a software program) with a more recently released, enhanced version.
    b.
    To replace (a hardware device) with one that provides better performance.
    So we,re all clear on what an upgrade is suppose to be. I wanted tomake sure I understood before I proceeded.
    I installed a copy on my latptop Toshiba Centrino 1.83 Ghz/3 G Ram decent computer for all intent and purposes. It’s been working fine
    on Vista but running slow. So I went through MS “requirements checking” to determine if my computer passed the MS test and worth of such the honor and also get MS’s blessing before I moved forward with the “upgrade”.
    I proceeded with the upgrade went relatively smoothly had to uninstall a few programs but I figure that’s such a 
    small price to pay for such great enhancement that I will receive from my “upgrade”. Approximately 4 to 5 hours later after minimal reboots I was all set to go with my new upgraded OS. It was working as prescribed faster than Vista cleaner
    interface sorta, helpful little taskbar gadgets. I was stoked that night I went to be thinking I will go to work and be a rock star on my brand newly “upgraded” computer.
    Oh and by the way, I was so thrilled about Windows 7 I even upgrade my home computer as well.
    I go into work and I have a very big user migration that night, I am an network engineer and I use my laptop for work I use Visio, Wireshark
    and others, all the tools that help us do our job efficiently and effectively.
    I sit down turn on my computer it boots faster than Vista and I’m just chomping at the bit to get going have lots of work to do. So let
    go back for a minute an look at the definition of “upgrade”
    “3.
    Computer Science
    a.
    To replace (a software program) with a more recently released,
    enhanced version.
    b.
    To replace (a hardware device) with one that provides
    better performance.”
    So were good on what upgrade is?
    I have my computer up I have logged in (locally) not on a domain as I was not when I was on Vista OS. I wanted to attach the server to get some
    files so I go to map a drive………………. Hmmmph ….. that’s weird I cannot map a drive …… let’s try this again……… hmmmph…. what this domain thing going here I
    never need that before in the lesser product Vista but ok I’ll add my
    \\servername\folder and my domain.org\username..... hit enter and hmmmmmph …. It ask me for my password again.. well I could have fat gingered it so I’ll type it in reallllllllly slow.. hmmmmmmph ….. again no such luck…
    So I decide consult a colleague of mine who recommended I “upgrade” to Windows 7. After speaking with me he tells me oh! You need
    Windows 7 Professional to do the same things you did in Vista home … I’m perplexed by this but let’s once more take a look at the word “upgrade” to “enhance
    and/or make better
    ”. So now I’m a little perturbed by this little bit of information but I suck it up and decide I’ll drop another ~100.00 US on an “upgrade” to Professional small price to pay for such a great product.. I mean have
    you seen those commercial WOW!
    I make my purchase download and once “upgrade” to new “upgrade” with even more improvement over Vista and XP I mean
    with those two OS’s it took me all of 5 second to map a drive SURELY Windows 7 Professional will map a drive like no one business.
    After 
    few reboots my computer has been fully “upgraded” and ‘upgrade” again to W7 Pro and I’m off to the races ready to get to work cause my migration will be starting in a few hours and I want to be prepared. Sytsem reboots quickly
    I’m logged and ready to start getting my information I so desperately need. I go to map my drive I figure I’ll help W7Pro out I’ll be proactive and use “domain.org\username” that way W7Pro 
    will like me and think oh! this man is brilliant. I hit enter with my correct password that I type realllllly slow. …… waited it’s thinking for sure this is it .. the anticipation is killing me the excitement is overwhelming …….
    THUD my world just came crashing down ..no luck .. no login ..no mapping drives…I’m now on hour 6 of this ridiculous journey to the “upgrade” to “upgrade” ____. So now I’m left to forum because MS surely does not
    think I am going to pay them $275.00 and hour for support on something that should have work right out of the box.
    So I’m on day to I have tried everything on this forum page to get my mapped drive to work with nothing working for me. It appears that
    if I want to use my computer I will have to rolled back to the lesser (Vista).
    Just in case you’re wondering how I made it through the user migration. I had my co-worker bring me my XP computer worked like it’s
    was suppose to.

  • Can you print on an iPad mini using the same wireless printer that works with my iPhone5 or do you have to a specifically AirPrint capable printer?

    Printing on iPad mini compared to iphone5

    If you are printing from an iPhone the printer most likely already AirPrint capable.  So it should work directly.
    Alternatively, if you are using an App on your iPhone to print to it. You should be able to use the same App on your iPad.

  • I am unable to use the Live View function when working with JavaScript in Dreamweaver.

    I am currently trying to set up my own website with dreamweaver and am very familiar with Java and JavaScript. However, whenever I try to use the Live View function it never lets me. Additionally, I am unable to preview my work in a browser as the option to do so is greyed out.
    However, I have noticed that when using html in a project, all these functions are available. Any ideas how I can be able to use these functions?

    Is it possible you meant to say you were "very unfamiliar with Java and javascript" in your initial post?
    Javascript doesn't do anything without an html page to affect.
    Java and javascript are not the same thing, they're really not even related other than browsers can be made to render both. Java is its own programming language while javascript is basically html's helper monkey. I don't think it's even feasible to "understand javascript" without knowing html. My last post still stands, if you are coding javascript, you need an html based page to turn it into anything but plain code to a browser, so the option to view it will never come up. When you preview the page it's attached to, it will function correctly (as long as it has been attached to the page correctly).
    Java on the other hand can create programs that run without a browser at all and I've never gotten close to touching that monster.
    You may need to explain what you're trying to do and post the code here to get the help you need.

  • I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

    I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
    Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
    This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
    This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
    The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
    If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
    I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
    I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
    A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
    In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
    Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
    If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

    I am new with iMac and I am trying to copy some file from my external HDD that a used with my PC but it does not let me also I can't delete anything from this HDD using the finder. Can somebody help me , please?

    No, unfortunately, when you format a drive, it will erase all the contents. So you will need to find a temporary "storage" place to put the stuff using a PC so you have access to it. Then reformat using Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities). If only using with mac, format Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and use GUID Partition scheme under Partitions/Options. After formatting, you can drag the files back.

    Because your printer has to be Airprint compatible and connected to WiFi. There are applications, such as Printopia, that will allow you to print through your computer.

  • HT1338 My MacBook Pro (running Leopard 10.5.8) won't allow keyboard to type an upper case 'C' using the shift key...works fine with caps lock, or, with my Typinator workaround using double-typed lower case c (not always best). Any ideas?

    My MacBook Pro keyboard won't type an upper case 'C' using the shift key... only with caps lock. Workaround has been to use Typinator by typing a double lower case c, not always the best solution. Mac is a refurbished model, which initially was fine. Apple tech helped me correct the quirk when it first appeared, but now it has returned and refuses fixes. Any ideas?

    I'm willing to bet that this has something to do with iCloud.  I've been facing a frozen computer nearly every time I go into it. 
    In Activity Monitor I have seen two programs associate with iCloud that take up about 2.5 GB of memory (I only have 4 in the computer) -- causing everything to freeze.  One of these is called "iCloud Helper" and the other one is something like "Address Book Sync helper" -- I see parts of these names in the stuff you have posted.
    I am at my wits' end with these and have written to Apple asking them to do away with these or fix them.  To get rid of the Address book sync thing I have gone into system preferences for iCloud and unchecked Contacts -- but then spontaneously it gets rechecked.  And oftentimes after I Force Quit the iCloud helper, it spontaneously turns on again.  My conclusion --- the iCloud is basically unusable.  It turns a Mac into the most useless, clogged, sluggish PC.  If this is happening to a lot of people's computers -- and I see no reason why yours or mine should be an exception -- these programs just might destroy Apple itself. 
    So -- I'm about to completely give up on iCloud, and I suspect that others will too unless this gets fixed.
    Cheers,
    Bob

    I previously had PS CS5 Trial installed but removed it using both Control Panel Programs and deleting all files from the CS5 directory on Program Files.  I then installed a purchased product from Adobe disc using the serial number on the case.  But when I try to launch it, I get a screen headed Photoshop CS5 Extended Trial.  It asks for the serial number and says that my trial has expired.  It rejects the serial number from the Adobe case saying "This Serial Number is not valid for this product".  It thinks that I still have the expired Trial Version installed.  How do I convince it (the program) that the Trial Version is long gone and the currently installed product was installed with a valid and accepted serial number????
