X220 shows display name as "Generic PnP Monitor", it's supposed to be IPS.

I ordered an X220 with IPS long time ago.
I remember seeing a while ago the name as "Wide viewing angle & High density FlexView Display 1366 x 768" but now that I see this "Generic PnP Monitor" I am not sure if it was my imagination or infact the name of the monitor changed in the device manager.
I checked the Hardware Ids and it is MONITOR\LEN40E2, and googled a bit about that and looks like it's an IPS panel anyway.
So why the change of name? or is this really a cheap TN panel? Lenovo sent me a X220 with wrong display configuration?
I am confused 

you have an IPS display.   most likely your monitor INF file was overwritten, perhaps by windows update or a manual change.
you can reinstall it using the file here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-62923

  • Issue with Generic PnP monitor on G505s

    Hi there,
    I'm running Windows 8.1 on a G505s. My brightness settings can no longer be adjusted either by hotkeys or in settings. The solution centre informed me that the Generic PnP monitor on my machine is disabled because windows couldn't read it possibly due to corruption. I tried to update the driver but it says that its already up to date. 
    Anybody have any ideas how I can fix this?
    Thanks

    Hi Krustifer,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    I’m sorry to hear that the Brightness feature and display adapter driver is not working as expected, I suggest you to re-install the display driver and while installing the driver right click on the downloaded file and select “Run as administrator” option to get it installed without any error.
    Do post us back if the issue persists.
    Best Regards

  • Generic PnP Monitor - Windows 7 32 bit & Bootcamp 3.1

    I am using a new iMac 27" that contains an ATI 4670 card. I installed the latest version of bootcamp via Apple software update. I setup a new partition, installed Windows 7 32bit Ultimate. Upon boot, I inserted the Systems disc that came w/ the iMac and installed all of the bootcamp drivers. I then downloaded the 3.1 update and ran it as well. I then installed all current windows updates.
    After rebooting (and by the way, I rebooted in between all of those installation steps - bootcamp drivers/3.1 update/windows update and all 3 times the iMac Display only has the Windows Generic PnP montior driver).
    Is there a way for the display to pick up a native Apple monitor driver?

    Perhaps you could think through the implications that, maybe I have already done the steps outlined in that article when installing Windows 7, because in fact, I did.
    I still have the issue.
    Once more, unless you have first-hand knowledge of a solution to this problem, please reframe from quoting me the already easy to find knowledge-base articles present in the Bootcamp support section which I've already read them all, and tried them all, to no avail. I'm looking for someone else who has had this same issue and found a fix for it.

  • SAML-based claims authentication in SharePoint: how to show Display Name instead of email address?

    Hello,
    I followed the following step by step guide for SAML-based claims authentication with ADFS:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh305235.aspx
    The authentication works well; however, Sharepoint shows the users’ email everywhere including at the top right suite-bar. I rather to see users’ display name instead of email. Is there any way to have SharePoint shows user’s display name instead of email
    address when the primary SAML claim is email address?
    Thank you,

    You need to be able to import the identity store into the UPA. See http://sharepointobservations.wordpress.com/2013/08/06/sharepoint-2013-configure-user-profile-service-for-adfs-provider/ for

  • Computer detecting generic non pnp monitor (that doesn't exist)

    My computer keeps randomly (usually after a few hours of being on) detecting a third monitor. When I right-click and go to "Screen Resolution" the third screen (or second depending on if I have my second monitor, a Dynex television, plugged in via HDMI cable)
    is detected but blank and I cannot make the system get rid of it.
    It will get rid of it for a second and then it will come back, making that boo-doo, bud-dunk sounds (the same as wehn you plug in or unplug a usb device). I have tried reinstalling the latest drivers through "screen resolution"-"advanced settings"-"properties(for
    both the monitor and the adapter)"-"install latest driver". I've also treid to install the drivers from the AMD website and the HP site. Nothing has worked. 
    I called my warranty people and they said to do the same thing, and when it didn't work they said to just reinstall windows. So I did that and it worked, for about two weeks. Then it happened again last night.
    I have Radeon HD 6750 graphics card, dual core (Radeon HD 6620G for other half?)
    I'm a tech noob so if you need more information please let me know and thanks anyone and everyone for their help :)

    Hi,
    I suggest you uninstall the monitors in Device Manager, and then scan the hardware changes to see how it works.
    Also, try to remove the display profiles for a test:
    1.   
    Click Start, and then type Color Management in the Start Search box.
    2.   
    Click Color Management under Programs.
    3.   
    In the Color Management dialog box, click the Devices tab, and then click the display that is experiencing the problem. For example, click Display: Generic PnP Monitor.
    4.   
    Make sure that the Use my settings for this device check box is selected.
    5.   
    In the Profiles Associated with this Device list, remove all the profiles that are listed in the box. To remove a profile, select the profile, and then click Remove. When
    this process is complete, the box will be empty and all the defective profiles will have been removed.
    6.   
    Click Close.

  • Setting Display Name for sent emails

    Hi All,
    I want to set a display name for sent emails. For example: when I send emails using [email protected] and after receivign this amil in my inbox it says from [email protected] Is there any way that I can show display name for this like Kartik <[email protected]>.
    is there any API by which I can set this display name? Or this has to be done on mail server?
    Any help would be appreciated!!
    Thanks, Kartik

    it asks for a attribute messageFrom and passes it to SMTPTransport. I have tried setting different values for messageFrom like
    messageFrom=Test Email
    messageFrom="Test Email"
    but it didn't work for me. it expects a domain name there (even if its dummy) like
    messageFrom=[email protected]
    Can you tell me at which place InternetAddress is been called by SMTPTransport so that I can write my own impl for it.

  • Rename Display name in Outlook

    I have one group mail id. that configure in outlook as user display name is different to user where i have configure that
    but when i send mail to other user it shows same name to  other user.
    i want to show different name like amit send from group mail-id it need to show display name Amit. Not Show Group name to other like group name Sales lts shows Sales i dont want to show that 
    please give me some solution ............
    thanks in advance

    Hello,
    "I have one group mail id. that configure in outlook as user display name is different to user where i have configure that" -- Would you please give a detailed explaination of this
    sentence so that we can understand the problem more efficiently?
    From the description, I'm assuming that you want Outlook to show the name of the real sender who is sending using the group mail ID, rather than to show the group name, correct?
    If this is the case, the only option I can think of is to show somebody "send on behalf of" the group, e.g. Amit On Behalf of Sales. However, based on my research, it's not possible to send on behalf of a group, we can only grant Send On
    Behalf permission on a mailbox. So, I don't think what you're looking for is possible.
    If I've misunderstood something, please feel free to let me know.

  • Why can't I search/filter on display names?

    See Question. Yes, it's 'display names', so I guess you can only see them on the display while thunderbird pretends to not know them really.
    Still this is a less useful non-feature which annoys me a lot.

    Display name:
    is useful in identifying emails from specific people like family and friends.
    It is more informal.
    The shortened format means the 'From' column header does not need to be so wide - especially if these emails have been filtered to suitable folders.
    for example: it is more user friendly to see FROM Mum instead of the long email address and many peopke do not always send emails showing their name.
    However, like many things, you are not obligued to use it in the contact properties.
    Regarding searching:
    It depends upon how you are doing it. there are different search methods and each will search in a slightly different way.
    If using 'Quick Filter Bar' then it does not search on Display name as those options are not available. It searches on Sender , Recipient, Subject and Body. But if the display name happens to be used in the body content then it will display.
    If using global search then it does search on a display name.
    Enter the display name in the search eg: Mum and select the Mum and email address option from the drop down offered.
    It will show display name and email address, so you can select the search parameters.
    If using this method:
    Edit > Find > Search messages
    This method searches on specific fields/headers and therefore will not search on a display name.
    So I would recommend you try using the global search option if searching by a specific display name.

  • SharePoint 2010 Web Analytics showing user Display Name and Account Name from the same user

    Hi!
    Since July, 16th 2012 the Web Analytics Daily Unique Visitors reports started to show almost the double of visitors we used to have on our Web Application. Here are some of the data (I intentionally deleted the weekend data):
    10/7/2012 2.497
    11/7/2012 2.723
    12/7/2012 2.722
    13/7/2012 2.699
    16/7/2012 5.055
    17/7/2012 4.963
    18/7/2012 4.954
    19/7/2012 4.998
    20/7/2012 4.965
    23/7/2012 5.117
    24/7/2012 5.012
    25/7/2012 5.071
    As you may notice the data jumped from around 2.700 unique visitors to around 5.000 unique visitors. As the number of permissioned users remains constant it is pretty odd. I also checked the Number of Page Views report and see no change on its behavior.
    The number of page views remained constant.
    So I went to look the Top Visitors report and understand why the visitors number almost doubled. The analytics started to count the users Display Name and Account name as two different visitors with a different number of page views. Let me show you an example
    from yesterday (July, 25th) Top Visitors report:
    #     Visitor                  Page Views    %
    1    Cinthia XXXXXXXXXX    359        0,55%
    5    Giselle XXXXXXXXXX     143        0,22%
    7    Aline XXXXXXXXXX       138        0,21%
    15  nt\cmazevedo              111        0,17%
    60  nt\gbsantana                 69        0,11%
    73  nt\aglsiqueira                 65        0,10%
    "Cinthia" and the account "nt\cmazevedo" are the same person. The same is applied to "Giselle" / "nt\gbsantana" and "Aline" / "nt\aglsiqueira".
    As I stated this is an example from July, 25th. If I checked the same report from a period before July, 16th I can only see the users Display Name as "Visitors". No account name is displayed or counted as a different visitor.
    About the environment:
    We have two SharePoint 2010 farms: a "corporate" and a "enterprise". The corporate farm contains four web servers and a central administration servers with publishing services. The enterprise farm contains two servers running User Profile Services, Search
    Services and some others. Our main version is the SP1 with June/2011 Cumulative Update with a few more hotfixes applied.
    This behavior on analytics is affecting all web applications (we have more than 20) installed on this farm and my company Support team said that no change were made on SharePoint on the weekend the problem started.
    Does anyone have any tip about what is going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, Manas!
    First of all thanks for your interest on this issue but I don't think it is related to the User Profile or the Active Directory.
    I checked both records and there was no change on the Display Names. All the users have "full names" as display names (first + middle + last name) and not logins as SharePoint is displaying on this report.
    But I did a test yesterday and checked the results today confirming that just the access been made using a specific server are causing this. Explaining it better:
    I have four web servers on my farm named from P01 to P04. Then I created this test script:
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P01.
    Step 2: Access site "A"
    Step 3: Access site "B"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P02.
    Step 2: Access site "C"
    Step 3: Access site "D"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P03.
    Step 2: Access site "E"
    Step 3: Access site "F"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    Step 1: Change local HOSTS file to point the web application on the server P04.
    Step 2: Access site "G"
    Step 3: Access site "H"
    Step 4: Close the browser.
    I asked three users to execute that script. The results: All access to the sites "C" and "D" were registered on Web Analytics with the user account name such as "nt\cmazevedo". All the other sites registered the user Display Name correctly such as "Cinthia
    XXXXXXXXXX".
    With this test we could isolate the problem just on the server P02. It doesn't occur on the others. Now my support team is trying to find any configuration difference between this server and the other three that could point for the root cause.
    I am also looking for some information regarding the service responsible for this task ("transform the account name into a display name") to understand why it doesn't work on one server and works on the others.
    Thanks!

  • How can I customise Thunderbird message columns to show sender raw address (not display name) and the "Received for" email address that was used to reach me?

    I find it increasingly important to be able to see a sender's actual email address rather than just display name, as they usually don't show a company name - which a domain always would. Is there a way to customise settings/write a script/tweak files to add raw email & domain name columns? When dealing with a number of people at the same company it is hard to order or glance through a list of emails to find them. I also know 2 people with the same name at different companies and it is impossible to distinguish!
    Secondly, as a related column addition, since a number of email aliases reach me it would be useful to have a column to show the "Received..for" part of the message source which reveals the actual email used in the To/CC/BCC which led to me. Again can this be tweaked or scripted?
    I have programming experience but have not made add-ons and would be open to a suggestion which involves creating a custom add-on if adding columns with custom values is possible that way.
    Best Regards,
    Drew

    Extended message headers can be searched from Edit/Find/Search Messages, or the folder context menu, by adding custom headers to the search criteria. So, you might be able to create a search on specific properties of a message.
    The method of adding custom headers to searches is the same as the one described here for filters:

  • Displayport to DVI Adapter finds Generic Non-PNP Monitor

    I have a 6 week old H8-1420T Envy C1U69AV#ABA, Windows 8 64bit, 1GB Radeon HD7670 and I am trying to connect two Dell 1905FP monitors. Each monitor works fine when connected to the DVI port. When I connect one monitor using a HP displayport to DVI dongle adapter, the system reports it as a Generic Non-PNP Monitor and the screen remains black. I tried the adapter on another system and it works fine.
    I updated to the new "8.982.10.1800 Rev. A 3 Jan 2013" driver on the HP site but it didn't help. The AMD drivers will not install because apparently this is an ugly step-child video card, not a real AMD. If I knew that I wouldn't have purchased it with the system.
    I have the original CD from the 1905FP when I bought them and it doesn't have a driver file on it (didn't need one with XP). When the monitors work, they are each reported as a 1905FP.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    You can make sure you have the newest AMD drivers by using these steps.  I have not had any issues updating the AMD driver using these steps on custom built and OEM systems. 
    I will be honest, I'm not certain if the driver will correct the issue but it is worth trying and having the newest driver may not hurt. 
    Let me know what happens.

  • Infopath - Show All values in Text box From PeoplePicker control (Display Name)

    I have One People Picker Control and one Text box.I set Value of Text box to "Display Name" and problem is that it show only First Value.so is there a way to show all values of "Display Name" in Text box ?
    Thanks

    Thanks
    the link that you provied , didnt help me but i dig into "http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/t/19623.aspx" and found solution.
    here is my solution :
    1- Create one Picker control (i changed name of control to Member ) and one Text Box
    2- Set Value of Text box to xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId, ";")'), "..")
    3- if you changed name's picker control just Replace "../my:Member/pc:Person" with name's People Picker control on your Form.
    Edit 1 : I found out Why the formula in that Blog didn't work.it Because of copy/Paste
    Dont Copy/Paste Formula because maybe you get Error . how ? here :
    if you copy this formula :
    xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId,
    result will be in Field :
    xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, ‘concat(pc:AccountId,
    Look carefully, you see “..” instead ".." , this why you get Error Because of “
    Edit 2 : if you want to show only Display name you can Replace
    "pc:AccountId" to "pc:DisplayName".Here is Formula
    xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:DisplayName, ";")'), "..")
