Windows 7 RC Compatibility for C7280 and LightScribe

Will the C7280 Full Software install under the Windows 7 Release Candidate (not talking about the earlier beta builds), either in Vista Compatibility Mode, or with no modifications? Will all the updates install (including the recently released printer update to stop Office crashes) in regular or Vista Comp Mode? I’ve been reading also that scanner errors may occur, but I don’t know if this applies to the RC or earlier builds. I am running Vista right now. I know Windows 7 has basic drivers included. I have a copy of the RC and would like to upgrade, but would prefer to retain as much functionally as possible first. Are Windows 7 drivers for the C7280 coming soon (either at full release or shortly before). I sent an e-mail about this two days ago and haven’t received a response.Also, I have a Lightscribe drive. Will this work in Windows 7? I’ve read both yes and no to this. I’ve heard the earlier betas give a false “Lightscribe failed to start” warning. Will new drivers be available soon if they are needed?Thank you so much

Hi mugentuner, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
There's a lot of good information, including which systems are officially Windows 7 upgrade-capable, on the Lenovo support site:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/WIN7-HOME.html
After a clean install you of course need to apply Lenovo drivers & software. System Update is the easiest way.
For systems not on the official upgrade-capable list, a Windows 7 upgrade may be possible, but gets increasingly difficult the older the system is.
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

Outlook 2013 on Windows 8.1 keeps prompting for username and password.

Hi,
I have a HP Pavillion TouchSmart laptop with MS Windows 8.1 OS. I had installed MS Outlook 2013 Standard. This laptop is joined to the domain like many of my users, however, it keeps prompting for username and password. The emails are still able to send
and receive without any problem.
I have tried to check the connectivity, both cables and wireless are well connected.
I have tried to reinstall the Outlook 2013, but it still occurs.
Attempted to recreate profile but it still occurs.
For the configuration:
I have selected negotiate authentication, and have unchecked the box that states
"Always prompt for login credentials"
Please advise.
Thank you.

HoW DO YOU SETUP A NEW wINDOW 7 64 BIT PC FOR ITUNES AND MOVE EVERYTHING OVER FROM AN OLD PC

How do you setup a new windox 7 64 bit pc for itunes (which documetns folder does the file need placed in and then move everything over from your old pc (which is windows xp)?

I am pretty disappointed in the lack of documentation.
This is the Apple Support page for Boot Camp:
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
No mention anywhere of Lion, of 4.0/4.01
In the past, 10.6.6+ was suppose to - and sometimes did - provide for a download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant program, in order to save them to flash or such (that should be about 1GB, too large for CD). Some macs req'd a USB-DVD or other driver that was needed pre-install of Winidows
You don't install Apple drivers until after Windows is installed otherwise,
It is possible for me, with a tower, to run w/o needing any drivers from Apple. But with laptops, mini, you do need some drivers from Apple for graphics, internet, wireless, SMC support.
And right now, loading any Apple support Tech Note articles is very very slow.
People keep asking why Apple can't post 3.0 or 4.0 like they do the updates. Only logic is to force t he download from inside OS X or from an OS X DVD. Otherwise would be here, and avoid all the trouble. they aren't of use on a PC, and any PC motherboard vendor does post their support software for download.

Windows 8.1 Compatibility with Printers

So, I have a Surface RT and have a HP Inkjet Printer J6450. Every since I bought this tablet, my printer always said that it was not compatible with this version of windows. I went to hp.com located my printer and selected windows 8.1 from the drop down menu to download and install, whatever it needs to do, but nothing happened.
I have the printer in my devices list because of wi-fi but it keeps saying not compatible.
HELP!

Hi tyler_rose, welcome to the HP Forums. You are correct that your J6450 is not compatible with Windows RT. Windows 8.1 is a different operating system.

{Solved} Windows 8.1 Doesn't show users when windows loads, only shows options for accessibility and shutdown/restart

I just recently come into a problem on a dell all-in-one, where the computer has been updated to windows 8.1 and doesn't show users, only a blue screen with the power options and accessibility options and here is how I fixed it.
Note: you will lose your desktop apps
1. Turn on computer and let load to the blue screen with the options
2. While holding down shift click on the power button and then click restart (while still holding shift)
3. Hold shift until the advanced recovery options comes up
4. click on Troubleshoot>Refresh your PC
5.Enter password for user account
6. Let it do its magic

Hi,
Thanks for your sharing. And it will benifit others who encounter the similar issue as yours.
This issue can be caused by corrupted winlogon components.
You are right to refresh to repair the system.

HP Ink Compatibility for HP Photosmart D5460

I have an HP Photosmart D5460 that I bought from the U.K, but since I do not stay in the U.K, I had to replace the original catriges that came with the printer. But the problem is, I got the catriges from the U.S and now the printer says wrong ink catriges installed. Is there a way to change the printer's regional ink compatibilities? please help as I use the printer for my photography business.

What country are you in? The HP SureSupply site here lists the 61 or 61XL cartridges as compatible with the HP Envy 4500 printer in the US. (If you are in a different country there may be different cartridges, 301 or 802 depending on the region.)
If the 61XL is the proper cartridge then see the document here for information on troubleshooting the cartridge error message.

Dock Compatibility between T430 and newer T440?

I have a T430, purchased 12 months ago which I love and a 433835U mini dock plus series 3 (170w) Docking station. I would like to get a new laptop for my wife and would like one that can plug into the same dock so she can use the 2 large screens and desk setup easily. It appears the T440 or T440p are the replacements to the T430. It is probably asking too much to think that one of these might be compatible with my ultrabay CD/DVD drive from my T430 but if so that would really seal the deal. Can anyone tell me if the T440 or T440p is compatible with my dock and/or my ultrabay drive?
Much Thanks.

Welcome to the forum!
AFAIK, the answer to both of your questions is "no".

Processor Compatibility for S1 sockets

I own a Satellite P305D-S8900 and need to know if the ZM-87 is a compatible upgrade for the RM-70? Considering the upgrade if no compatibility issues. Greatly appreciate any help, Thanks

Hello and welcome,
The card in that link specifically says not for Lenovo.
Lenovo laptops require cards that pass the BIOS whitelist test. They have to be both the correct model (intel XYZ) AND have a Lenovo FRU number. The FRU number indicates that they have been modified (subsystem ID, IIRC) to pass the whitelist. Reliable vendors will list the FRU # as well as the card model.
The best reference is the Hardware Maintenance Manual for your machine, or the parts list PDF. I can't access the support site at the moment to figure out which applies to the G570 and to get the actual list. Hopefully tomorrow the site will be back up.
Sorry I can't provide any better information just now.

BB Link does not recognize Outlook as a source for calendar and contact sync

When setting up BB Link for my BB Classic it does not recognize Outlook 2013 (on Windows 7) as a source for calendar and contacts.

I know there are people who can and many who cannot, never saw a resolution yet, I hope someone who can will reply to your post so that is why I am replying this sends your post back up to the top. Here is a recent user who can but does have a issue: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Link/Duplicate-Calendar-Entries/td-p/3108949 I wish I could do more but I do not use Outlook or BB Link.

Can the Post Results box for name and email be resized?

Depending on the size of the browser window the box that asks for name and email for posting quiz results can be very small. Is there any way to resize it? This is with Captivate 6 and Scalable HTML Content turned on.

Hi Judy,
These are run time messages and you can change it by the below steps:
If you want to modify specific labels that you can't modify through Captivate, you can do this with the file strings.txt, that is located in Adobe Captivate instalation folder >en_US
1. Open file
2. Modify whatever label you want
3. Save.
4. Rename to strings.zdct
5. Replace original strings.zdct file
6. Restart Captivate
I suggest you backup original strings.txt and strings.zdct files - just in case.

Ho do I use one monitor for OSX and Windows 8.1 bootcamp

I am a long time Mac user, but find the fairly recent Apple switch to thunderbolt for monitor input very frustrating.
For several years I have ran a Mid 2010 IMac 27" and input video from a Mac Mini running Boot Camp Windows 7 using Target Display Mode on the IMac.
This worked fine until I upgraded to a Late 2013 27" IMac and discovered that the IMac has moved to thunderbolt as the input for Target Display Mode. The new late 2013 27" IMac just will not display native Windows 7 or 8 from a Boot Camp Mac anymore.
My problem is that I have two business/job related Windows apps that must run on a native windows 7 or 8 platform, and won't function under either Parallels or VMWare Fusion.
I have tried.
And there appears to be no way to get any Windows machine with DVI or Mini Display Port output to drive a late 2013 IMac in Target Display mode.
So, with great frustration, I have concluded that I need to purchase a non-Apple 27-30" monitor, and drive it with either a Mac Mini, or my Early 2013 15" MacBook Pro retina, running one of the Macs into on of the mini-Display Ports on the monitor and a native Windows 7 or 8 machine into a second mini-display port, switching between the two video inputs. The Dell 30" monitor seems to get the nod.
Has anyone found a better solution to switching between OSX and native Windows on one monitor?
Thanks...

Hi William,
I had the same experience in December 2013 and contacted Apple about it. According to Apple it's an issue of Windows with Thunderbolt. Your older iMac from 2010 is using DisplayPort and not Thunderbolt for the Target Display Mode. Note that just the connector looks the same but it's still a different technology. Please further note that the response below does not apply for the new iMac 27" with the 5K display because this iMac does not support Target Display Mode at all, hence can't be used as external display. Of course you can still attach one or two external displays to the iMac 27" 5K.
Hope this clears things up for you and the others.
Thanks,
Martin
So, here is the important part of the official response from Apple:
"... The Thunderbolt controller in an iMac is running exclusively in host mode. As such it cannot emulate a device mode Thunderbolt display. Instead it implements a custom Target Display Mode protocol that shares video between two peer to peer machines running with both controllers running in host mode. The "client" side of the driver does not exist on Windows so windows cannot speak to the "server" half in the iMac. There are no plans to implement a client driver for Windows since there is no Thunderbolt SW stack available for Windows. The reason this used to work is that the older iMacs used DisplayPort for Target Display Mode. In this scenario the iMac was able to expose the panel in such a way that it looked exactly like a Display Port Device which Windows does have driver support for. ... "

VCS Expressway event log errors when Jabber for iPhone and Windows log in

hi folks,
I've deployed Collaboration Edge with VCS Control and Expressway:
my Jabber for iPhone succesfully can log in from Internet and it can IM but not calls and I see next messages in VCS Expressway when Jabber is logging in:
2015-03-27T18:00:28+02:00

"Digest User" in the "Protocol Specific Information" section of Phone Configuration selected right user. in this Jabber I see following error "Failed to get device configuration". however Jabber for Windows and for Android hasn't such issues - they succesfully can log in from Internet and it can do calls and IM but I see next messages in VCS Expressway when Jabber is logging in. The same log line appears when Jabber for Android log in:
tvcs: Event="Inbound TLS Negotiation Error" Service="SIP" Src-ip="Client-in-the-Internet-IPaddress" Src-port="56751" Dst-ip="Expressway-IPaddress" Dst-port="5061" Detail="No SSL error available, probably remote disconnect" Protocol="TLS" Level="1" UTCTime="2015-03-27 14:19:11,769"
and I can't find any information which describe such types of error.
thanks!

Thanks Srini, but the instructions have two options:
1. Use the Control Panel, select "Oracle 11g..." and uninstall from there.
This is of course the first thing I tried, but as I said, there is no entry for Oracle 11g in my "Programs and Features" applet.
2. Download the install package and run OracleXE.exe with the remove iss file.
Firstly, there is no OracleXE.exe in the package I downloaded, just setup.exe;
Secondly, setup.exe ignores the iss parameter and tells me that OracleXE is already installed (setup.log contains ResultCode=-3) so it can't be installed.
Is there somewhere else to get an OracleXE.exe that will work for 11g? Or are these the instructions for 10g and haven't been updated yet?
Am I unusual in not having a Control Panel entry?
(and I understand this is a beta - that's partly why I'd like to uninstall it - I'll go back to 10g and not be so impatient :))
Regards,
Andrew

I have been running Firefox on my PowerPC G5 for years and have just tried to install 4.0. When I attempt to start Firefox, a window opens telling me the application cannot be launched. I have installed it twice with the same result. What gives?

I have a PowerPC G5 quad core Mac with a pre-intel chip. I have been running Firefox successfully for over five years and have used every version in operation during that time. Tonight, I received notice that the latest version of 3.6 was ready to install and that I needed to restart. I did that and was taken to a page telling me that 4.0 was available for downloading and use. So I downloaded the new 4.0 and tried to install it in the typical Mac fashion. After clicking on the dmg, I dragged the icon into my applications folder and onto the dock. But when I click on the icon on the dock, I get the message: The application cannot be launched. 10661
When I try to launch by double clicking in the applications folder, I get the message: You cannot open the application Firefox because it is not supported on this system.
I had to go to your site using Safari of all things! I tried re-installing it with another download, and that one misbehaves in the same way. By the way, in case it matters, I still have 42 GB available on my hard drive and 5 GB of RAM.
There is one other funny thing. The Firefox icon from the disk image has a white circle with the slash through it on top of the fox and world symbol. That is what appears in my applications folder and in my dock. It appears to be saying NOT FIREFOX, as it would indicate in a NO U-TURN sign. What is this all about?

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.
