X300: TrackPad will not move mouse cursor for several seconds after clicking any TrackPoint button

I have a new X300 with a clean install of Windows XP (SP3) and all of the latest drivers from the Lenovo website.  Whenever I click any of the three TrackPoint buttons, the TrackPad is not able move the mouse cursor for about 2 seconds.  During this time, I can still move the cursor with the TrackPoint.  I did not experience this behavior with my previous laptop, which was a ThinkPad T42 running Windows XP (SP2).
Thanks for any suggestions!

I once installed XP using my great Unattended-selfmade-fullypatched-etc-DVDs (I call it Windows XP Ready to Go Edition) on my X300 and had zero problems. This is also based on SP3.
Perhaps the order of installing servicepack and several drivers is important.
I start off with an SP3-integrated installationof Windows XP, patch it fully first and then go on with driver updates (Chipset first, then ACPI, LAN, WLAN, Sound, Graphics, Input devices.
At least its possible to get it working flawlessly, my Installation proved that.
I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND INSTALLING SP3 AS AN UPDATE, ONLY START FROM SCRATCH USING AN SP3-INTEGRATED SETUP.

  • I need to make a pdf document, made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

    I need to make a pdf document, already made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website as an e-brochure. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

    Hello waitingone,
    please try this (all terms are translated from my German programs to my best knowledge):
    1. Did the creator of the pdf file enable the import options?
    2. See import options: choose an other visibility option for your layer.
    3. Let you show the import options and click into one with a black background and try these out (often a gray is selected).
    4. See trimming: try the different modes there. Often works: "Media".
    5. Is the pdf file (eg from Word) correctly created?
    6. Is the PDF file protected? >>> no import possible.
    7. If that does not help, store the pdf file in Acrobat, repair possible errors, run the PDF Optimizer before placing in InDesign.
    Good luck!

  • HT1212 I have no idea why suddenly my iPhone5 will not move past the Password screen; also, a voice describes each button I touch, and ends with "screen locked" (not "phone locked").

    I have no idea why my iPhone5 suddenly will not move past the PW screen; a "voice" identifies each button touched (the Slide button, for example) or the PW buttons, and then ends with "screen locked" (not phone locked).

    I believe you have Voice Over on:
    You have to tap, then double-tap to select the numbers to enter your passcode.
    Then:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.

  • Why will Creative Cloud not open on my laptop? It just flashes for a second (after clicking on it)  but will not launch. Thanks

    I just updated to Mavericks on my laptop & tried to launch CC. After double clicking on the app it will not launch. What do I need to do in order to make this launch. Thanks

    We can't know. You have not provided any proper technical information like what operating system and what hardware.

    You have continual messages.. No space left on device
    Is your TC full..?? Are you using wireless to connect to the TC?
    The time capsule has been  stuck in the "preparing for backup" stage indefinately: like months and months.
    Note that Time Capsule is the hardware device.. Time Machine is the software that prepares the backup.. They are completely different.. !!
    Open either the TM preference or the airport utility and tell us how much space is reported left on the drive.. or is the local hard disk full??
    If you upgraded OS on the computer it can fail to properly clean up old backups and you will need to step in and erase the TC yourself. Or plug in a USB drive and set that as a new destination for the backup.

  • When using my macbook pro online via safari the arrow keys will not move the cursor in a text box if I have used the track pad to zoom in. They will only move the screen from left to right. They used to move the cursor around a sentence regardless of zoom

    Im running mountain lion and all software is up to date on my mac book pro, late 2010 model.

    Thanks, but this didn't work. I only turned extensions on for the first time last evening and this problem has been happening before that. I tried it anyway but the same results. 

  • Safari-will not keep position in dock and vanishes after closing-any ideas?

    I know this topic has been addressed previously but has there been a solution to this problem
    Some have written and suggested solutions but I have yet to see 'cause' of this annoying problem, and any definitive answer.
    have read and tried most of the suggestions- some solve problem momentarily but not permanently.
    Thanks....

    Hello,
    First, if there is a Safari icon in your Dock, drag it out. It should go up in a "poof" .. next try deleting this file: com.apple.dock.plist /Users/YourName/LIbrary/Preferences. Drag that file from your Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash. Now go to your Applications folder, launch Safari, when you see the Safari icon in the Dock, click the icon then click: Keep in Dock. See if it works.

  • What caused "You need to restart your computer.  Hold down the Power button for several seconds or push the restart button."

    This was displayed in four lanuages.  When I restarted I was asked to submit an error report.  The gave programmer details and indicated my OS 10.4 had quit.  I was reading a news article on DailyMail.co.uk at the time.
    I ran a Sophos antivirus scan on the whole disk and no threats were identified. 
    This has apparently happened a couple times previously.  I thought the computer had not booted up properly since it had a black box where this message appeared and the machine was unresponsive.
    Any suggestsions for cause and/or solution.

    Apple won't work on it anymore. And, take it from me (hard experience: three boards changed and the G5 finally croaked from the graphics chip problem) you don't want to bring it to an AASP either, because if they are able to get a new logic board from Apple, it will croak in short time also. These were not refurbed properly. And, by now, the caps on a refurbed board will be ancient, anyway. In addition, there is a serious potential issue with the graphics chip. There was a repair extension in effect for both issues, the caps and the chip, but it's long since gone.
    There might also be bad caps in the power supply.
    Those three bad caps, and possibly others, are enough to bring this machine down.
    There are some delicate soldering skills involved in replacing the caps. Most people with experience recommend practising first on a disposable board.
    You can get a set of the caps which will fit properly from
    http://jimwarholic.com/2008/07/how-to-repair-apple-imac-g5.php
    There's also badcaps, who I think will work on these.

    Also have a look at the posts inside these threads from resident expert spudnuty.

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11896037?messageID=11896037#11896037
    And there are one or two others who will do the repairs. I can't remember right now, but I'll look into it and post here again, probably tomorrow.
    Basically, I don't think you want to put any big money into this.
    EDIT: just remembered another. There was another one located in Oregon and I think he's now out of business.

    Get the caps and maybe have some local guy work on it.

  • My iMac will not update to 10.6.8 Even after restarting, it will not update.

    My iMac will not update to 10.6.8 even after clicking the restart button to update items. How can I update my iMac??

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Sometimes the Software Update version doesn't work properly. If you can't install Mac OS X 10.6.8 from Software Update, install it through the Combo installer > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1399
    The Combo installer allows you to update multiple Macs with a single download. Also, it's safer because it gives less problems than a Software Update version

  • My apple mouse is not working.  The pointer will not move on the screen and it keeps turning off.

    My apple mouse is not working.  I can get it to connect but it will not move the pointer.  Left and right click is working, scrolling, just cannot move the pointer.  Also, I have replaced the batteries (numerous times) but the green power light turns off after a few minutes.  Any suggestions?

    How about clean up LED hole of mouse?

  • Audiobook will not move to iTunes... Please help.

    Hi,
    I am using the ListenAlaska website, this is a legitimate library type of free audiobook rental download website.
    I downloaded an audiobook: "The Golden Compass: His Dark Materials Series, Book I" to try this out for the first time.
    It successfully downloaded & allows me to listen to it on my computer.
    What I really wanted was to put it on my iPod, it only allows rentals for 7 days, so I wanted to do it soon.
    I have tried to put it on my iPod through iTunes of course, but I keep getting the same error messages from iTunes, the first saying "One or more of the songs you are adding to iTunes, including "The Golden Compass-Part01.wma", are in the WMA format. iTunes will automatically convert them to the AAC format so that they can be added to your iTunes library."
    There are 2 button options to either "Convert" or "Skip".
    If I click the "Skip" button the Audiobook does not move to my iTunes.
    If I click the "Convert" button the next message says: "The song "The Golden Compass-Part01.wma" could not be converted because it is in protected WMA format.
    This error has only one button option that says: "OK".
    This doesn't move it to my iTunes either.
    I checked the ListenAlaska website for help & found infomation on Publisher's Permissions, & I thought maybe this was not allowed to be put on an Ipod even though it is in the "Ipod Friendly" section.
    So I checked in the properties of the audiobook & it says that it is permitted to be on rented an Apple iPod device.
    How can I get this to go into my iTunes?
    I can't seem to find any other help on the website & it just isn't going onto my iTunes.
    Please let me know what I can do.
    Thanks very much.

    I use this service from my local library, too. Slowly, they are starting to get tracks that will work on iPods because of feedback from library patrons.
    I am not sure how ListenAlaska does it, but my library clearly marks which tracks are WMA-protected. I know these will never go onto my ipod. I can only listen to them using Windows Media Player on my PC. There are some tracks that are not WMA-protected, and those I can drag into itunes and put on my iPod. But it's never popular titles ; (
    I suggest contacting your library - the more folks who ask for iPod-compatible files, the more likely they are to start getting them. There is now an Overdrive version for Macs, so they are getting there.
    edit - Back to your problem, I think those tracks are marked wrong on the ListenAlaska website as being iPod friendly, when they are not.

  • After updating my software my computer will not move past the apple star up screen.  What can I do to fix this?

    Help!  My Mac book pro is 1 year old.  I just updated my software yesterday now upon starting up, the computer will not move past the start up apple screen. Any suggestions?

  • Trackpad will click and select but will not move cursor

    After breaking the trackpad in my early 2008 MBP I replaced it. 
    Upon startup the trackpad will click and select but will not move cursor... I have tried all system resets short of wiping and reinstalling OS.
    Any suggestions?

    Because the click has to deal with a physical button press while the movement has to deal with the trackpad detecting the movement of your finger on it.
    Just for giggles, if you hold down the Option key on bootup and get to the boot menu on it, does the mouse work then?  If so, then it's an OS issue (could be a setting or some .plist that's jacked up.
