  • B500 - Web cam problem in windows 7

    I just reinstall a new Windows 7. My web cam in my Ideacentre B500 doesn't work correctly. There is no web cam icon in "MY COMPUTER". I tried to find its driver in LENOVO website but I can't.

    How closely is this related to your [other query|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5442164] about time zones in Java *1.3?*
    Both the queries are related to same problem only.
    Thanks a lot AndrewThompson64, baftos and WalterLaan.
    figured out the problem. The source code for the java.util.TimeZone class's getDefault method shows it eventually invokes the sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfo class's getTimeZone method. This method takes a String parameter that is the ID for the required time zone. The default time zone ID is obtained from the user.timezone (System) property. If the user.timezone property is not defined, it tries to get the ID using a combination of the user.country and java.home (System) properties. If it doesn't succeed in finding a time zone ID, it uses a "fallback" GMT value. In other words, if it can't figure out the time zone ID, it uses GMT as your default time zone. JRE 1.3 in windows 7 was working in the same way.
    Did a code change such that user.timezone property is set to IST by using the java.lang.System class's setProperty method.
    System.setProperty("user.timezone","Asia/Calcutta"); This will ensure that application will stick to +5.30 of GMT time zone and is totally independant of the system OS(Widnows XP, Vista, Win 7) and system timezone setting(UTC/GMT). Have created a method to fetch the timezone string value (Asia/Calcutta) from DB. This will make bit more configurable. Tested it. It worked very well in my quality servers.

  • X220 came with Win7 Pro and Home Premium license sticker. Is it possible to reinstall Win7 Pro?

    I seem to have an unusual problem.
    My X220 came with Windows 7 Pro OEM.
    But the license sticker behind my battery is for Windows 7 Home Premium.
    I tried to retrieve my Win7 Pro key, but it does not allow me to activate a new installation of Win7 Pro.
    Does it mean that I can only reinstall Win7 Home Premium?!
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello,
    Have you tried (1) looking up the Windows 7 Professional product ID key using a program like Nirsoft's ProduKey, Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder, NSasoft Product Key Explorer, WinKeyFinder, SterJo KeyFinder and so forth; and (2) making backup recovery media using Lenovo's tool to do so?  If so, you should be okay as long as you store these two in a safe location.

    "apple mobile device failed to start"  "verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services" came up on windows XP upgrade to 11.1.4 and since have been unable to open itunes - uninstalled and tried reinstall to no avail - what to do ? Ken

    I am having this same problem. I took Kappy advice on restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service, however that did not work. I got this message in a pop up window that came up immediately.
    Windows could not start the Apple Mobil Device Service on local computer.
    Error 1053  The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
    I have already uninstalled itunes, all the related programs and I cannot reinstall, this Apple Mobil Device message stops the install.
    Can anyone please help?

  • Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga Camera problem

    Hi all, I had my screen replaced under warranty a few months ago due to the retention problem, after I got it back I noticed the webcam wasn't working I didn't put much thought into it and thought i had to update drivers since it had been replaced. Now I have come to get to the bottom of the problem and realised its looking like a hardware problem as windows reports the camera is not connected in device manager and no tricks seem to get it working. Looking at other posts it seems that it may be an issue withe folding design of the yoga putting stress on the connecting cables. Either that or it was not re-connected properly during the warranty repair which seems to make more sense..... Unfortunately my warranty has now expired (a couple of months) so it leaves me in a terrible predicament, does anyone have any ideas or anyone from Lenovo able to help me?  Thanks Steve

    Looking at the webcam area now I think they have forgotten to put a webcam back in! has anybody got a close up picture of the webcam "hole" I can compare as it looks like there is either nothing there or the lens is like a pinhole........

  • Problem installing Windows 7 on Thinkpad x100e

    After a format of my drive on the x100e I am having problems getting Windows 7 32-bit to install, I am receiving this error when I am attempting to install.
    Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
    1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
    2. Choose your language setting, and then click "Next."
    3. Click "Repair your computer."
    If you do not have the disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.
    File: \Boot\BCD
    Status: 0xc0000225
    Info: An error occurred while attempting to read the boot
    configuration data.
     I am currently using a USB stick to install as I have no USB optical drive, I have done this many times before with this same laptop, I have also installed Crunchbang Linux (Ubuntu derived) without a problem - I have read many posts and it usually points to a problem with ACPI detection, I however see no mention of this in the BIOS.
    I have also read that I may need to update my BIOS to correct this problem, I've no idea why it would have randomly stopped but hey, that's Murphy's law. I have ordered a USB optical drive which should be here by Wednesday so I can update the BIOS, however I go back to College that very same day so I would very much like to get it working before-hand ;(
    Any suggestions / help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    Can you explain how you solved the error?  I have done a few clean installations of Microsoft Windows 7 via USB flash drive and do not recall ever seeing that error.

    Hi,
    Did you mean you cannot run any app in Windows 8.1?
    Was the prompt message same with camera?
    If yes, please refer to this article release the memory:

  • CS4 and camera problem

    I recently installed Creative Suite CS4 on my computer (Windows XP Professional). Yesterday I used Bridge for the first time to sort
    through images. Today I could not download photos, My Canon Power Shot SD 800 IS camera is showing up in all the right places on the computer. Windows says the driver is working properly and "the device is working properly", etc. but yet the EOS utility to download photos into "My Pictures" will not open and the sign that comes up is "the computer cannot locate the camera". Is this a CS4 problem? driver problem? Windows problem?
    I read through googling that there was a problem with cameras on CS3. Is this a repeat?
    Anyone have this situation? Sure would be greatful for any suggestions as I really cannot go out and buy a new camera just now.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Lenovo Z500 Intel Graphics and Function Keys problem on Windows 10

    Hi.i have a problem with Windows 10 upgrade.My Model Is Lenovo Z500.  6Gb Ram.  Intel 3230m.  Nvidia GT740m.Since the upgrade to Windows 10 the brightness is at full and i cant dim it,it's always the same.and there are two more problems.second one is my shortcut function keys(Fn + F buttons) don't work :bluetooth,touchpad,turn off screen,refresh etc... .Only buttons that work are for volume and for brightness that dont do anything when i try to lower it down but it shows in upper left corner that the keys are responding.And the third problem is i cant duplicate my display but only can extend .As far for the other stuff everything is smooth and fast.even my games got bigger FPS, for example "Counter Strike Global Offensive". I would like to know if there is fix for brightness and for duplicate screen problem regarding graphics driver, and for my function keys regarding keyboard. Thanks and  i hope for quick response. I know Windows 10 just came out and i know you are at full capacitity for solving everyone's problem but i hope you'll look into this because i'm not the only one with this problems.      

    Hi phitbull,
    Are all the hotkeys on your SL500 not working, or they are simply not displaying the controls on-screen? (ie. increase, decrease or mute will display on screen). It may be possible that you are missing out on some drivers for your system. If you look around the forums, there are many posts on users experiencing hotkey issues, mainly due to missing pre-requisite drivers. You can find a handful of drivers in the Lenovo Support website's Windows 7 BETA page at the following URL:
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/documen​t.do?lndocid=WIN7-BETA
    Perhaps you can give this a try:
    1. Install the Lenovo System Interface Driver (v1.01):
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/documen​t.do?lndocid=WIN7-BETA#sid
    2. Install the Hotkey drivers (which installs OnScreen Display v5.32.00 and ThinkPad FulLScreen Magnifier v2.07)
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/documen​t.do?lndocid=WIN7-BETA#atkh
    Hope the above helps with your issues.

  • Installation problem on windows server 2008 r2 datacenter edition 64bit

    hi
    today, i tried to install the current maxdb 7.8 release on my virtual server with a windows server 2008 r2 datacenter 64bit edition os. at the first installation, i got an error message something with "rte runtime error". at this point, the installation stopped.
    because of this error, i tried to uninstall the failed installation. this was not possible, in the uninstaller, i didn't see any components, so i can't uninstall.
    so i tried to delete the files manually: the entries in the start menu, and the application's path under "program files"... first, i need to kill a process named "serv.exe", that creates a tcp daemon under port 7200... after killing it, the deletion of the dir in program files was successful.
    this is very very weird, now my server is "contaminated" with an uncomplete uninstallation of maxdb...
    why maxdb 7.8 has problems on windows server 2008 r2 datacenter 64bit edition???
    thanks for feedbacks!
    regards, jan

    > no, because i canceled this virtual server - another method to solve this problem. (i have really no time for things like that..!)
    If you take the time to give exact error messages then someone will be certainly able to help
    > on windows server 2003, there are NO problems.
    Windows 2003 != Windows 2008 - they use a different kernel, a different security system (UAC) and other features that may prevent a succesfull installation in the first place.
    I installed a MaxDB 7.8 just today on Windows 2008 R2 and it worked fine.

  • Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

    First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation  worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
    (Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
    it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w,  deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
    and
    then
    I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)"  from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
    The values I filled for
    1) Global Database Name :  orcl
    2) System Identifier : orcl
    3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
    4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
    5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
    6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
    Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
    Username : sys/ as sysdba
    Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
    After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

    Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
    Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

    Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit
    I can't install Lightroom 3.2 (German) on my computer (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit).
    While copying the extracted program files the following error message appears:
    An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {6435B7C0-E0C8-3EA2-91AE-7640034EAFCE}. HRESULT: 0x80070002.
    I found out that other users had the same problem, and couldn't find a solution.
    Perhaps it is a Microsoft .NET Framework related problem. But after installing .NET Framework 4 nothing changed.
    Thanks for ideas to solve the problem.

    Thanks for your advice, Mr. McLion.
    I downloaded the 3.4.1 version and started the installation as administrator. Unfortunately the same error message occured again.
    Then I tried to install the 32-bit version (although I prefer a 64-bit program on a 64-bit operating system). A similar error message appeared at the same point of installation progress, but with another combination of numbers and letters in brackets.

  • TS3918 I am experiencing this problem on Windows 7 64 bit.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I am experiencing aniTunes reinstall problem on Windows 7 64 bit.    I have uninstalled the iTunes product and reinstalled 11.02 for windows 7 64 bit but can't get iTunes going again.  The first error message I get is: "The file "iTunes Libirary.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes".  The next error message I get is:  "There is a problem sending the command to the program."  Any suggestions on what to do next would be appreciated. ( I would have posted this in Windows area had I been given a choice.)

    I believe that message can sometimes be a sign of a corrupt library file, unless of course you've tried to downgrade to an older build of iTunes. Restore it as described in this post.
