X201: Bluetooth lost after update to 8.1

Dear All,
    A few months ago I changed the old default Windows operating system to Windows 8.  Everything worked fine. 
    However, recently, the system auto-updated to Windows 8.1 and Bluetooth disappeared!  My old BT devices are still there if going into classic device manager, but unaccesible. Metro-style 'PC & devices' shows no bluetooth option.
   Everything else works fine and unfortunately there is no driver available for Bluetooth and this OS on the Lenovo website.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Regards
TD

  • I have a problem in the Bluetooth headset after updating iOS 7

    I have a problem in the Bluetooth headset after updating iOS 7

    Hi,
    have a similar problem here. More specifically, I am using a Plantronics Voyager Legend (brand new) with my Iphone5 (iOS 7.0.2). All apps are working great with the headset, e.g., listening to music, normal phone calls, etc. No sound distortion at all.
    When I use Skype (most recent version, which is 4.12.258) the sound is very distorted, like scattered. I also successfully used the same headset with a Samsung Galaxy S3 and Skype. No problems. So, I suspect that it must be the combination of Iphone/iOS7 and Skype which messes up the sound.
    Does anybody else have the same problem when using that combination of devices and apps?
    Best,
    Kurt

  • Bluetooth problem after update to lollipop

    Hi,I've recently updated my 6503 to Lollipop.Everything went smoothly and is working fine, except 2 issues - one solved, second NOT. FIRST (solved) - phone after update waked up and logged to 2G network, with no data transmission (despite it was turned ON). What was strange - my operator's network appeared in 'available network list' as separate 3 NETWORKS ( 2g, 3g and LTE) Switching manually to LTE solved it - now phone is switching between technologies automatically, data transmission is working fine. SECOND AND NOT SOLVED: I'm using the hands-free system built in my car ( mitsubishi lancer, 2008 ) . After update, phone failed to establish connection with it, even hands-free system remained as 'associated device'. OK ... I erased hands-free system from phone, as well as phone from car's memory. Paired devices again - starting procedure from car's side. Nothing better. Erased and paired starting from phone side. Nothing better.What I've  observed more: phone after try to establish connection , phone in eye blink looses it. On list of available services of hands-free system (in phone menu ofc) , only 'phone sound' appears, while -as I remember but i'm not sure- before update more (2 or 3) services were detected .   PLEASE HEEELP !  

    Re: Bluetooth problem after update to lollipop As above post, I am also experiencing problems with bluetooth on my Z2:- Phone connection is OK if Bluetooth is turned on the phone for " car is ready". Then I can make and receive calls.
    - Playing music on bluetooth does not work after Lollipop 5.0.2 update on my car head unit. Previously connected and able to stream music on 4.4.4 Kit Kat with no issues, looking on web this is not a new issue with Bluetooth connection issues to devices since Lollipop came out so what the **bleep** is going on? I purposely bought a Sony TV, Car Head Unit and Soundbar to ensure everything worked together now the head unit that I only had fiitted in February does not connect which cost me £249!!! No issues connecting to TV or Soundbar but on HU it tries to connect then disconnects and BT Audio Icon on HU display greys out although phone is connected and icon highlighted as connected. I have cleared cache, unpaired and paired again, reinstalled 5.0.2 again through wifi instead of OTA but still the same. Car device: Sony XAV-602BTAndroid version 5.0.2Version: 23.1.A.0.726

  • Aperture 3: GPS data gets lost after 'Update from Master'

    My library contains photos in JPEG format that I geotag in Places, then I save the metadata with 'Write IPTC Metadata to Master'. The problem I have is, that the GPS data gets lost after I do an 'Update from Master', even if I saved the metadata before. I'm having this problem with referenced and managed photos and all my JPEGs from several different cameras. The only way to permanently store the GPS info into my photos seems to be to export the geotagged photos as versions.
    Does anybody has the same problem or knows how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Michael

    Use Houdah geo (http://www.houdah.com) to write location data back to the EXIF. It's interface is very similar to Places (Google maps and pins) and you can interface with the Aperture library. It's a bit of a pain, but if you need it done now rather than wait for an Aperture 3 fix, then...

  • HT4623 How can I retrieve my Contacts that I lost after updating iOs 6 on my iPhone 3GS through wifi?

    I lost all my Contacts after updating iOS 6 on my iPhone 3GS through wifi. All my other apps, Notes, Photos, etc are as it is but none of my Contacts appear. I also signed up to iCloud during the update but can't find Contacts on iClouds. Pls help!

    It is strange people experience this problem only with Contacts because normally contacts are backed up with Notes and Photos and that stuff. If you are willing to do a do-over, you can try to backup, restore, and put your data back on again and see if anything new appears. You never know if some file clould have had some kind of conflict because iOS 6 was being installed while data was being restored at the same time.

  • Cellular data settings lost after updating iphone 4. How do I return these settings?

    Hello All,
    I bought my iPhone 4 from the Apple Store in the UK, the phone was bought "SIM FREE" and hence it is unlocked.
    When I used to go to the phone settings, I had the option to change the network settings for my Internet Connection, MMS settings and others.
    After updating my iPhone 4 using iTunes, I lost these settings and now I cant configure my cellular data connection.
    Does anyone know how to reactivate the settings for the Cellular Data Settings?
    Thanks in advance,
    Raed

    You will need to contact the carrier. All supported carrier settings are in the iPhone's database and are applied automatically when a SIM card is installed from a recognized carrier.

  • Bluetooth Disabled After Updates

    I have the 8gb iPhone and I'm using it with the Apple bluetooth headset. Each time a new update comes out it disables my bluetooth functions on the phone. I go to the settings, general, bluetooth.
    After an iphone update is installed I go to re-enable bluetooth and all it does is display the spinning circle. It will spin like this for as long as you like trying to enable bluetooth.
    I've docked the freshly updated iphone with the apple headset to get it to auto pair (since bluetooth wont enable I can't manually pair) and all it will do is charge the iphone and headset. it wont pair or activate bluetooth.
    I've tried to restore then load my old settings but that doesn't work. It still won't activate bluetooth.
    The only way to get bluetooth working again after an update is to do a restore then treat the phone as a brand new iphone. I can not load any of my old preferences. I have to go through the menus and redo all my sync settins and phone settings This is a pain and seems to be the only way to get bluetooth working again.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue?
    (btw, I really like the apple headset. Fits in my ear great and I've had no complaints from people on the other end of the call. Only issue is the phone needs to be closer than 3ft to the phone to get best listening quality)

    Mellimelvin,
    When you go to Settings -> General -> About, is there a Bluetooth address showing?
    If not, try restoring the iPhone and setting it up as new. If it still isn't showing your iPhone will need to be serviced.
    Hope this helps,

  • N82 dictionary lost after update to firmware 30.0....

    after i had upgraded my phone, then the original dictionary has lost from my phone.
    i thought it was upgraded failure, so i re-upgrade it for twice, this problem stilt hasn't solve.
    how can i solve this problem?

    This quite normal that after updation u loose on certain software's but at the same time u'll get new ones as replacements.
    maybe nokia thought that a dictionary is not that important so did not bother to include in the new firmware version........

    Hi All.
    Same here !  Maps was perfectly working with several maps and voices installed on my N97 Mini under Window7 Pro.
    After updating to OVI Suite 2.2.0.241,   in the Maps section of OVI Suite I got a message on "updates for maps available" or similar ... and I clicked there unfortunately ... I left more than 2 hours things apparently going on, but basically instead all was blocked ...
    The result is   not only   that on my device NO maps or voices   are present anymore (not any single one!),   but also   that on my PC   NO maps and voices are listed to be downloaded to my device ...
    Simply it continues to say like in the attached JPG figure BUT no download is done when I click there ...
    What is going on ?
    What to do to recover/reinstall maps on my device ?
    Can it work with a RESTORE ?
    I need Maps to work on my device also for work, please help ...
    Thanks,

  • Bluetooth disappeared after updating windows 10

  • My photos lost after update from 3.1.3 to 4.0.0

    Sorry for my English.
    After updating from 3.1.3 to 4.0.0 I lost pictures.
    They occupy the volume is displayed in iTunes, but they are not.
    New photos continue numbering from the old and the volume in iTunes is increasing.
    How to return all the pictures in the phone, only see those that did after the upgrade?

    Thanks. I found this:
    I first learned this technique when upgrading my iPhone 3G to iOS4:
    1) Connect your iPhone to your computer
    2) Run iPhone Explorer on your computer (install it if you don't already have it)
    3) Backup (copy to a folder on your computer) and then delete the following files:
    /DCIM/.MISC/Info.plist
    /PhotoData/Photos.sqlite
    /PhotoData/PhotosAux.sqlite
    4) Unplug your iPhone, launch Camera Roll app and wait as it rebuilds the database.
    The thumbnails that were showing as black on my iPhone look perfect now.
    And very happy!
