X1 Carbon Touch 3rd Generation-Running Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Tech Preview and Android Lollipop

I'm fortunate to have received a  X1 Carbon from Lenovo to install various operating systems and see how they run. You can see the detailed specs. on this machine in sarbin's earlier article here.
he X1 Carbon is a culmination of a 10 year odyssey of Lenovo acquiring IBM's PC division and this PC lives up to its ThinkPad name with flying colors. Here is an X32 and an X41T circa 2005 alongside the X1 Carbon.
 

Kudos!  Great article, answered all my questions.  Believe I'm ready to go for it now . . .Windows 10 that is! Thanks.

  • Ipod Touch (3rd generation) connection to a TV

    Can anyone tell me how to connect my Ipod Touch (3rd generation) model A1318 to a TV to display YouTube and Video?
    The Apple Store have advised me that they don't have a cable that will do this but to use a third party one with third party software from Itunes.
    Thanks,
    Steve.

    There is no special software.  You just need apps that support TV out.  Just not that TV out does not mirror the iPod's screen.
    You do not need a dock, just the cable.  From the link I provided:
    A dock can be a welcome addition if you're going to keep your cables connected to the TV. The Apple Universal Dock includes an Apple Remote so you can pause and adjust the volume from a distance

  • I have an Ipod touch 3rd generation and all in the information in the setting has disappeared. How can I update the software?

    Hi everyone,

    Without knowing current status of the iPod:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Reinstalled Itunes for Windows will not recognize ipod touch 3rd generation.

    Itunes for Windows and PC will not recognize my ipod touch 3rd generation.  Also it will not fully charge using a brand new apple brand power adapter and cable. I have already uninstalled all Apple software on PC and reinstalled.  I've tried every step suggested by Apple online iPod touch Troubleshooting Assistant.

    the best thing i think you could do is go to an apple store or uninstall itunes and reinstall it one more time and see what happens

  • Can I enable battery percentage on my iPod touch 4th generation running iOS 5.1.1 without being jailbroken?

    Can I enable Battery percentage on my iPod touch 4th generation running iOS 5.1.1 without beig jailbroken?

    You can enable battery % on ipod touch 4g without jailbreaking it you can use backup bot for itunes. Thats how i enabled it on mine. Step 1: goto http://www.icopybot.com/ibackupbot_setup.exe download and install it if you have windows. Step 2: Next create a backup of your device in iTunes and then CLOSE iTunes (or else you may run into problems later on) do not lock the backup with a password. Step 3: Open iBackupBot. Click the backup you just made Next click "Path" to sort by Path. Step 4: Look for Library/Preferences/com.apple.springboard.plist and double click it. On the registration screen that comes up, hit cancel. Step 5: Find <dict> and create a new line after it. Then add this: 
    <key>SBShowBatteryLevel</key>
    <true/>
    Step 6: Hit CTRL + S or just the save button at the top left corner of that editor window. Now close the window.
    Step 7: Right click that same backup you just edited
    Step 8: click restore
    Step 9: Done! If you don't see the changes, reboot your iPod.
    Enjoy I hope you found this useful!

  • My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2)...

    My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2), when connected to my iMac (running OS X Yosemite) will charge, but is not regained, or for that matter even noticed by the iTunes application. The iPod will sync to dropbox when connected, but nothing else. On the device, it will ask if to "trust" the iMac, I naturally hit that it should, but still no change.

    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

  • Does Ipod Touch 3rd generation sync with newer apps?

    I am thinking of buying an Ipod Touch 3rd generation, but am concerned that it is old technology as far as apps and games go and will be wasting my money. Does anyone have any information about this?
    Thank you!

    iOS is a broader name for the mobile operating system powering Apple devices. You determine the latest software by version number, i.e. now the latest is iOS 6.1.3.
    The 4th generation iPod touch will not be able to run iOS 7 when it comes out this fall.
