Will HP provide a BIOS with integrated Touch Keyboard for Tablets like Split x2 and Spectre x2?

I'm wondering how useful a tablet may be, if you like to encrypt the drive but the BIOS has no integrated touch keyboard.
Will the ODM Wistron provide an update for that problem or did we have to wait for HP?
Any other solutions available? NFC-like authorization?
I do not want to attach the keyboard each time to enter the PIN for Bitlocker.

I remember a message, where someone said that if you use the UEFI mode with the HP Split 11 tablet together with Win8.1 / Bitlocker and the latest BIOS upgrade from HP, that Windows will display a pre-boot on-screen keyboard. I thought that this will also work with the Elitepad or that this tablet has a special HW-Encryption feature.

  • HT5176 I have a disability that limits my keyboarding abilities and speed.  A blue tooth add-on keyboard will provide some help.  However, I expect to rely on the dictation function.  Will "dictation" work in conjunction with a wireless keyboard?

    I have a disability that limits my keyboarding abilities and speed.  A blue tooth add-on keyboard will provide some help.  However, I expect to rely on the dictation function on the ipad 3.  Inasmuch as the blue tooth keyboards have no "dictation key, will "dictation" work in conjunction with a wireless keyboard?

    I also have admiration for Steve Jobs.  I've been a Mac user since 1984.
    Given that a wireless keyboard will not have the dictation key, there ought to be some way to work around this issue. All that is needed is some way to toggle between keyboard input and microphone input. Perhaps using AppleScript and/or a hot key, I can set up a voice command or define a hotkey to toggle between the 2 inputs.
    What do you think?

  • My iPod Touch 3rd Gen is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

    My iPod Touch (3rd Gen) is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. It varies between not responding when I tap the screen and acting as if I double-tap or tap and hold when I tap. Every so often it freezes for a minute or so and then comes back. The scren is constantly changing sizes too such that I often can't see most of the top status bar or other edges. This makes typing almost impossible, ruins most games and generally makes everything difficult, but otherwise the iPod is working correctly. Powering off, shutting down apps, letting it sit have not worked. This has happened once before months ago, but the issue resolved itself somehow. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

    Try this for the freezing

    To get synced photos from an iPod to a computer you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView.

    I want to buy it on sale this friday, so a quick answer will make me happy :)

    You should - if you're in the UAE, for instance, you should get an Arabic keyboard (you may have to specify when you configure your machine - I don't know, I live in the US).

  • Will this Airport Extreme work with iPod Touch?

    Hi,
    I just received an Apple iPod Touch (32gb, 3rd gen.) for Christmas.
    I've always been a PC user, so I don't know much about Apple products.
    I'd like to get an inexpensive wireless router to use with it.
    I'd like to be able to surf the web, get e-mail, watch Hulu, and listen to
    internet radio stations. I use Time-Warner broadband (Road Runner) and I have been able to do all of the above with my cabled PC.
    I've been looking at: Airport Extreme Base Station M8799LL/A Model No. A1034. It looks like a flying saucer. Since Road Runner download speeds for my PC are around 2.5mps and this Airport Extreme can handle up to 54mps, is it safe to assume it will work with the iPod Touch?
    If anyone has a moment and would jot down their thoughts, I would greatly appreciate it! If it won't work, and you could suggest some inexpensive wireless routers, that would be great as well!
    Thanks!

    Yes. I use a similar flying saucer Airport Extreme 802.11g (54mps) base station with my 2g iPod Touch 32GB.
    In theory, you should be able to use any 802.11b or 802.11g WiFi base station with the iPod Touch.

  • Connect to a cube with Integrated WIndows Sercurity for Windows user with computer outside the domain

    Hello,I am trying to connect to an MSSAS cube with a windows user ( and i need this user to be the end user that connect to the cube) from outside the domain.It will be .Net application.I use msmdpump.dll before but the thing is it impersonate the connection
    so the user that connect to the Cube is not the real client user with is a problem for me because i like to manage the security throw roles.
    SSRS is able to do what i am trying to achieve ( it ask you your domain user and password) then connect to the cube with these credential which is great,but i do that ?
    With ADOMD.Net how do you provide windows user/password in the connection string ?
    I tryed to only active windows security access with IIS and MSSAS but it's not working with a computer outside the domain even if in excel i provide a windows user/password.

  • I have a current 2TB Time Capsule. I would like to add more ethernet ports for needed expansion. Will an Airport Extreme conflict with the Time Capsule for needed ethernet ports and will wireless from both units conflict?

    I own a current 2TB Time Capsule and I need to expand my network system to include more ethernet (wired) ports. I am considering an Airport Extreme that would give me enough wired ports. Will the wireless capabilities of both units conflict with each other? I only need one wireless network. Thank you for any help.

    While you could certainly add an AirPort Extreme to provide additional Ethernet ports, you could also save about $150 by purchasing an inexpensive switch, such as one of these:
    http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-DGS-1005G-5-Port-Gigabit-Desktop/dp/B003X7TRWE/
    http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Unmanaged-GREENnet-Auto-Negotiation-Auto-MDIX/dp/ B001QUA6R0/
    Consumer grade Ethernet switches typically come in five and eight port configurations. Just be aware that a five port switch only conveys the ability to add three additional devices. An eight port switch conveys the ability to add six additional devices.
    An 8 port switch provides twice the capacity of a 5 port switch for considerably less than twice the cost. The price difference between the two is often only $10 or so.
    I just checked, the 8 port version of the Trendnet switch above costs exactly $4 more.
    An AirPort Extreme is a very flexible full featured wireless router, and would provide three additional LAN ports for wired devices. If all you need is a few more ports though, it's overkill.

  • Problem with One Touch Access for N95 8GB

    Hi,
    I'm having problem connecting my N95 8GB to the Internet via NSeries One Touch Access PC Suite using my Bluetooth. I can connect via cable but bluetooth I cannot.
    This is the error message giving me:
    "Failed to connect to the network! One Touch Access could not connect to the selected device."
    Pls help and advise. Tnx in advance.
    Br,

    I found a situation where your error message appears. It is the case when the nokia is connected using the data transfer mode and simultaneously the OneTouch Application is started. Then the device is not recognized by the modem software. The PC Suite mode is required for the OneTouch Application.
    In my situation I think I already saw all of the possible error messages described in the documentation during the various experiments.
    For example I tried to uninstall and reinstall the cable drivers. Unfortunately the driver page of N95 8GB does not include them only the page of N95. This was a step towards success - what concerns the OneTouch Application.
    Sometimes it is useful to switch off and on the phone, specially when it is not possible to connect with the modem driver.
    In my opinion the possibility of completly uninstalling the Nokia Suite is missing. You can uninstall all parts but after reinstallation the Nokia Phone Browser is no more available, the icon is not displayed. All the software packages are working fine even the modem drivers but not the Phone Browser.

  • Can I enter BIOS with a USB keyboard on a Thinkstation E20 with USB legacy disabled?

    Hi,
    My Thinkstation E20 with XP SP3 won't boot up with an external HDD connected to its USB. Tried various things:
    1. Changing boot sequence so that the USB-HDD is behind the internal HDD
    2. Excluding USB-HDD from the boot order
    3. Using a different USB-HDD
    But all this won't work, after the motherboard boot, I get a black screen. The system boots normally with the USB-HDD disconnected.
    So as a last option I would like to disable USB legacy support, but I am worried that I won't be able to use the USB keyboard anymore to enter BIOS. As the Thinkstation has no ps/2 port this could be a real issue down the road.
    Microsoft info is that on most system you should be able to use a USB keyboard during the motherboard phase even with USB legacy disabled, but I can't find if theThinkstation can do this?
    Does anyone know/tried it?
    Thanks for your help,
    Andre
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    welcome to the forum!
    you'll always be able to use the keyboard to access the BIOS.   after all, if a system could completely lock out the keyboard then you'd have no way of unlocking it.
    what port(s) have you tried connecting the USB HDD?   if you've only tried the front, try a port on the back and see if anything improves.
    what brand/model USB HDD are you using?

  • Firefox will NOT sync since adding password integration add-on for my macs. Is there a plan to resolve this conflict? Once I uncheck password sync works.

    I continue to obtain a sync error with unknown error. After spend a few hours online and troubleshooting, I determined by un-checking password sync, no errors were received. I added the add-on for Mac password integration and can only conclude that adding this feature has conflicted with my sync. Does anyone know of any issues or are there fixes already in place I am unaware. I am at that point to return to Safari for my macs due to this and other issues I have been having with Firefox. Thanks.

    Hi KevMB,
    Thank you for your question. I would recommend you try the new Firefox Sync, however currently it is available in beta starting Thursday.
    If the device is already authenticated and is syncs automatically, then the password does not have to be added every time. I do not understand how the Mac password integration works as you describe it to.
    If you are talking about choosing to sync stored passwords across devices please select any duplicates that may be stored in the profile under the preferences.
    [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?]] and[[Firefox Sync troubleshooting and tips]] are good references for more help.

  • What are the little plastic pieces that come with iPod Touch used for?

    One piece is white and the other is clear. Can someone show me how to use them?

    The white piece is an adapter that you use when resting your iPod in an iPod dock. The clear piece is a stand that you can put your iPod on when you are charging through you USB cable, or just watching a film, etc. Place it flat on a table, and then place your iPod sideways in the divot.

  • Will upgrading from 10.5.8 to 10.6 erase stuff like Safari 5 and revert it

    I'm finally ready to make the jump from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard now that's it's been well worked-over, but I'm trying to assess how much down-time I'll have afterwards.
    Is the 10.6 upgrade DVD smart enough to not overwrite my Safari 5.x install with Safari 4.x that's on the DVD? Or, if not, is there some way to now make it do that with a custom install or something?

    It overwrote my later copy of Safari 5.x with Safari 4.x, but as I applied the combo updater from 10.6 to 10.6.6 it brought it back up to Safari 5.x, plus I ran Software update so maybe that got it up to snuff after combo update, I’m not sure.
    So, it turns out it will overwrite your more recent install which is kind of a waste of time, but on the good news it brought my extensions back into 5.x without me having to reinstall them, so at least that time was saved.
    Thanks everyone for your help.

  • HT201272 All my songs appear in my library on my PC but all the songs that I originally loaded on itunes by cd are not on the library on my ipod touch.  I would like them included and I can't seem to find an answer on here that works.  Help!

    I would really like to include all the songs in my library thatare on my pc on my ipod touch, but the ones that I downloaded years ago by cd show up on my pc library but not my ipod touch library.  I've tried looking on support but haven't found anything so far that has worked.

    Only music that you purchased from iTunes will show in the Purchased links - music that you bought from other sites or copied from CDs will only be where you put it e.g. on your computer and/or on your backup copy of your library.
    If you want that music on your iPod then you will need to sync it from your computer to your iPod.
    The only way that you would be able to download that music directly on your iPod, as opposed to syncing it from your computer, is if you have subscribed to iTunes Match and uploaded it to to that from your computer.
    When you try to sync it, you are connecting the iPod and selecting it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes under 'Devices' (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can enable the sidebar via control-S) e.g.
    On the right-hand side of the iTunes window there should then be a series of tabs, including one for 'Music' - if you select that you should be able to select which of your computer's iTunes music to sync to the iPod.
