X301 and docking support

Hi,
does the x301 support any kind of docking stations, as a docking/port replicator is mentioned.
If not, is there any linux support for DisplayLlink?

the X300 and X301 can use the enhanced USB port replicator.   there are no provisions for a dedicated dock like found on the other X-series thinkpads.
regarding displaylink support under linux, it doesn't appear that drivers have been made available yet on their site.   only drivers for XP/vista and beta drivers for OS-X are listed.

  • About to order X301 and dock. Have concerns

    I am going to order the X301, with 128 SSD, DVD-R/W, XP, and Verizon WWAN. Plus I am adding the USB Dock. Sometimes too much research can be a bad thing. I am now having second thoughts that the system will run as advertised.
    Specifically, I am concerned about the Verizon WWAN not being able to connect. I already have a Verizon wireless account, so I will need to transfer that to the X301. There were many posts about problems with this. Does anyone know if this has been fixed?
    Second, I have read of all sorts of problems with the display. I will be using a HP w2207h monitor, with a DisplayPort to HDMI adaptor, and am concerned about getting a quality display.
    I have been a long time ThinkPad user, but strayed with my last purchase. I thought coming back to a ThinkPad would reduce the computer problems I am having with a non-ThinkPad, but am wondering if the quality of the product has slipped in the last 2 years?
    Any advice on whether I should look at a different ThinkPad model, or stick with the X301 would be appreciated.

    No dock, i just use the machine when i get on site in the mine, it has 3G and GPS integrated system, great little machine, but it is bit dirty due to all the dusts. In the office i have my own T61 and X60, which i brought along for this trip. 
    I am using the X301 right now.

  • "The iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." Any thoughts? Also, iPod will not turn or or charge (tried in my laptop, house computer and dock) I have all the lastest updates to my knowledge

    "iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." iPod will not turn on or charge or reset settings. I tried plugging it in my laptop, house computer and docking station to charge and nothing. Also, I have all the latest software updates to my knowledge. This is a classic 8GB iPod, running of Windows 7. Any thoughts/suggestions?

    only thing that seems to work so far is syncing without photos and also check here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206849?start=30&tstart=0

  • X301 and Windows 7

    Hello,
    I installed Windows 7 on my X301 and have problems with three hardware devices.
    One is the fingerprint reader. It is shown in the device manager but I cannot find a vaild driver.
    The other two hardware devices I am not able to identify.
    Is there a solution for these problems? When will drivers be available for windows 7? (I read the driver announcement post)
    Regards,

    Dell's fingerprint suit can be set-up on X301 instead of lenovo's package - works perfect!
    now fo Wimedia device (that is wireless LAN) use the one from System Update (it show 2 Wireless LAN packages) that has "64 bit" in the name and ignore the second...
    Install Auto features from Sysem Update - that wil properly enable microphone
    Don't install registry patches and Vista Component updates...
    Good luck....
    P.S. I assume that You running 64bit version of OS... there is no reason to use 32bit on any hardware that allows to run 64bit....

  • My Finder menu, HD, and dock all disappeared after I mistakenly downloaded a bogus version of Firefox. How do I get them back?

    I think I may have gotten some sort of virus after downloading a "bogus"  Free version of Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox immediately, because I noticed my Macbook was acting strangely, but the next time I turned it on, my HD, Finder menu, and dock were all gone! Basically there is now an empty, blue screen. I have booted in safe mode and deleted preferences, but nothing is working.

    This probably is the mistake you made.  Many sites that offer application downloads also include adware as an unrequested 'bonus'.  Try AdwareMedic and it should take care of the unwanted ad popups:

    If no success, the use the Apple support procedure, which is a lot more complicated:

    The lesson is, always download from the developers web site or from the APP store.  That way no unwanted items will not be included.

  • Main screen and dock move to second display

    Hi all,
    although i found many replies regarding to how to get the dock to the desired screen i face the following problem.
    I am a vj/dj using serato dj, mix emergency and madmapper. Whenever i connect a second display to my macbook (macbook pro early 2013 retina, now on OS 10.9) the main screen and dock is transferred to that second display (e.g. projector). These softwares need to run to the main screen only, and this should be my laptop's screen.
    Even if i get the dock back to my macbook display, these softwares recognise as MAIN display the external one and not my macbook pro's display.
    I am facing this problem since my OS upgrade to 10.9 from 10.8!
    Can i do something to my macbook so as to always recognise its own display as the main display? Does this problem exist on Yosemite as well?
    Can i downgrade to 10.8 if all the rest fail?
    Regards

    Hi konstadinos.k,
    I understand you want your MacBook Pro to be the default display for your DJ software when you have a second display connected to it.  Take a look at the article below that explains all of the options for extending or mirroring your displays. I've highlighted some key information below that may be helpful in your situation.  Even though the article is for Mavericks, the info should still be applicable.
    OS X: Using multiple displays in Mavericks - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202780
    You can also assign an app to a specific display space from the app's menu in the Dock. Windows assigned to a space always open there when the display you specified is connected.
    The blue boxes in Displays preferences represent each display that's connected. The size of each box is relative to the current resolution of each display. In this example, the smaller box on the left is the display of a 13" MacBook Pro while the larger box on the right represents the Apple 27" Thunderbolt Display.
    Drag any of the blue boxes to change the location of a display in relation to your additional screens. You can use this feature to make sure your connected displays match their real world location when navigating windows. The white bar at the top of the blue box represents the menu bar. Drag the white bar onto the blue box representing the display you want as your primary display.
    Hope that helps ...

  • Does Apple iPhone 4 Dock support answering calls through apple headphone

    Does Apple iPhone 4 Dock support answering calls through apple headphone? or is the audio out just a simple audio out that cannot interact with the headphone cable remote control, e.g. answering calls , skipping to next song as we used to as normal?

    From my experience, whichever one is connected last reigns supreme and takes over.
    When I walk to my car, I have my headphones in, and when I plug it into my car dock (with the headphones still plugged in and music still playing), the music switches from the headphones and pumps through my car stereo.
    Then when I get out of the car and plug my headphones in (with the car dock still attached and playing music), the headphones take over.

  • X301 and F3507G issues in Australia

    Hi I have a F3507G wirleess card in my X301 and my service provider is not supported byt eh mobile card software form Lenovo.
    I have tried some of the connection attributes talked about on other posts but these seem to turn the F3507G into a dial up modem and that is not what I need or want.
    On the inital install I had options to connect over HSDPA and connected successfully once then  the software showed the modem as being not available despite it being OK in the hardware profile.
    I have the latest versions of Access Connections, Mobile Broadband Connect and the driver for the F3507G is up to date.
    My service provider in Sydney in Telstra.
    Three months after installing this card I would love to be able to use it more than once and for more than 15 mins.
    Please help.

    I have a F3507G in a T400 that is running fine with the Telstra Mobile Broadband Next G business service..... there was a Telstra selection on the pick list offered in Access Connections.
    If you are trying to use a F3507G with Telstra BigPond Next G consumer service, you may have a more interesting time, as the BigPond Next G service generally only works readily with a device was supplied by BigPond, as they track the IMEIs of their devices.

  • IMAC's Top graphics card frustration - Cheap and no support for Adobe Mercury Playpack Engine GPU Acceleration?

    If anyone has a solution for getting the Mecury Playpack Engine GPU acceleration to work with Premiere Pro CS6 on an iMAC 2011, please let me know. Like I wonder if you could Thunderbolt an External graphics card somehow? Or is an upgrade possible? Ahh...not worth the risk.
    Please, if you have a solution for me, let me know. Otherwise I find it pretty frustrating that I purchased a top-end iMAC, fully maxed-out in every way possible, and that the iMac doesn't support Adobe Premiere's Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration. Also, an old USB 2.0 Hub and thus the built-in SD card reader is slow. If you have SD cards with 95MB/s Transfer, Read and Write speeds, the iMAC will only transfer at around 30MB/s if you're lucky. Technically 480Mbs which is around 50MB/s but I haven't seen those speeds.
    I figured this could at least be circumvented with a Thunderbolt SD card reader or a Thunderbolt to USB 3.0 adapter but of course no such thing exists.
    Well, nothing with a reasonable price tag. This all might seem trivial to some but when you're uploading 24 hours of HD video footage from a 128GB SDXC card, the speed makes a big difference.
    And come on, no BluRay support? Ridiculous. I get the politics of why but still, just ridiculous. It would be nice to be able to burn a BluRay to watch in my home theater system. There are other methods but BluRay is convenient and great for backing up large Video Files. Unfortunately BluRay looks like it's not going to make it.  Maybe cable distribution companies will increase their Internet upload speeds one day and I can just store everything in the cloud and watch full length movies(that I've created) on Vimeo.
    Anyways, I went and took a look at the hardware Apple stuffed inside my fancy (3.4 Ghz i7, 16GB 1333 DDR3, 2GB AMD 6970M, 256 GB SSD Internal and 2TB 7200 Internal) machine and it appears to be pretty middle of the range stuff. It's an iMAC, not a Mac Pro so why am I griping? Because my 2009 PC(which I tricked out over the last two years) is faster and does support the Mercury Playback Engine. I spent $2100 total on this PC which includes all my upgrades. I spent around $3300 on the iMAC. I feel ripped off.
    Yes, I do love my iMAC on multiple levels but had I known my dated 2009 PC would render video projects faster, I would have gone with a MAC Pro or just a new PC. It seems that Mac is moving completely away from making high-end computers for niche markets(video editing) and focusing on their tiny laptops, IPADS and IPhones for the masses. Obviously smart from a capitalistic perspective(at present at least) but very frustrating for some.
    I was actually told to purchase a MAC for video editing. I've been a PC guy for 15 years. I went with the iMAC because I had read many good things about it(probably just Apple propaganda)  and also the MAC PRO was to be discontinued. Also the MAC Pro would have been triple the cost for what didn't seem like a whole lot more.
    It's one's thing to prepackage a computer with inferior hardware(the iMAC I have is fast for most things and more than enough for 99% of the population) but to not allow us to pop open the computer and make a quit upgrade to the machine is what really makes me feel like I'm using a computer built for Grannies. I mean there is a reason my mother loves iMacs and Iphones. Amazing that I was able to upgrade my memory from 4 to 16GB  but I've heard Apple has even done away with that. I get why they do it. Apple Warranty, Apple Care issues, Profit and World Domination: Apple wants a monopoly on everything.
    Was great to see Adobe bounce back after the whole Flash/HTML5 thing and knock Final Cut Pro off the face of the Earth for good. People are still buying it b/c of the brand name but Final Cut is done. David Fincher used Adobe's Workflow for everything when he made The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo. Hollywood is making the shift and the world will follow. The Adobe Workflow has finally come together and there is just no way Apple can compete with Adobe Creative Cloud and an Engine that can just swap from Premiere to After Effects to Prelude to SpeedGrade to Photoshop to Story with speed for $29 bucks a month(or $49 for some). Apple better start supporting Adobe's Mercury Engine or they may have a problem. And if you're using Final Cut X, you're severely handicapping yourself. Problem is that people don't want to take the time to learn Adobe's products(steep learning curve for sure) which is where Apple's Granny software, and perhaps computers, comes in to play. Arnold Schwarzenegger once said "Milk is for babies, Real Men Drink Beer".  I'm beginning to think that "Mac's are for Grannies, Real Men Use Adobe and PCs".
    The major problem with Apple is you're forced to use Apple. Not sure but history has proven that people don't like to be forced into anything. Autocracies don't work. These systems eventually topple, even in the corporate world.
    Amazon.com, now that's the company to emulate. What an amazing machine!
    I've read that Apple may even discontinue the iMAC after 2013. Who knows?

    1) Graphcis Card  - AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048 MB (6990 would have been better or something from NVIDIA.
    2) USB 2.0 Hub with only 480 Mb/sec
    3) Seagate Baracude SATA I 7200 RPM drive with 3GB/s transfer rate and only a 32 GB Cach. It's ok. I would have expected at least a Western Digital Caviar Black 2 TB SATA III 7200 RPM 64 MB  or the Velociraptor at 10,000RPM.
    4)APPLE SSD TS256C  Flash Drive. As you can see, it doesn't stack up so well against other SSD Drive.
    Just average. http://www.harddrivebenchmark.net/hdd_lookup.phphdd=APPLE+SSD+TS256C

    Whining and ranting about how iMacs can't do this or iMacs/orMacs can't do that is not going to get you a lot of help here.
    Your "I love my MAC" is typical of the ever ubiquitous PC whiner.
    If your video work needs were that computer intensive and critical , you should've done some online research and you should have budgeted for a Mac Pro.
    Mac Pros are completely expandable and upgradeable unlike the iMac.
    Mac Pros have much more faster and more CPU cores than the iMac line.
    iMac line is limited to CPUs with 8 cores. The Mac Pros, I believe, are up to 16 core CPUs, now.
    The Mac Pros can have their GPU upgraded and you even add/expand to use specialty audio/video cards.
    Mac Pros are the defacto standard for real video work.
    iMacs, even the high end model, is not really designed to do really heavy and intensive video work.
    iMacs do do video creation and editing. Just not on the level that is needed from a more "Pro" computer.
    It seems to me you are asking your iMac to do more than it was originally designed for, in terms of professional video editing.
    You get a lot more out of a Mac Pro than an iMac for any real serious video, CGI or animation work.
    You just didn't want to spend that much cash on one.
    iMacs are not user upgradeable or friendly to user upgrades at all!!!
    If you purchased a Mac Pro, you could've had that better, faster HD, better faster SSDs.
    That said, I can offer no real help to but because of the nature of your post and the fact you just simply annoyed me, I feel some advice and explanations are in order
    First off, you picked Adobe video editing software suite as your video creation software on the Mac.  It's no secret to long-time video content creators on the Mac that Adobe products, especially those for video creation and editing are very user unfriendly on the Mac. Even though Macs are supported from Adobe, Adobe for a long time has treated the Mac and Mac users as second class citizens.
    Before purchasing and installing Adobe Premiere, did you even check Adobe's site for the preferred system hardware and software requirements? Hmmm?
    This is why you should KNOW what software you are going to be running on a computer first then research what computer make and model will run said software.
    That's why Apple has its own apps like Aoerture, Logic and Final Cut.
    Despite your ignorance in this matter, Final Cut Pro X is alive and doing well, thank you, and using this software on your iMac would kick Adobe Premier in the you know whats.
    Final Cut Pro X is a complete video solution for and completely designed around the Mac.
    Why are you using USB 2.0 connections for video work when you have a perfectly good FireWire 800 connection.
    In case you are not aware, FireWire 800 is called so because it has a max throughput of 800 Mbps.
    Your 2011 iMac can take up to 32 GBs of RAM. Not just 16 GBs.
    This changed when the 2010 model iMacs came out.
    Blu-ray? I believe you can buy external Blu-ray writers that work with Mac using said FW800 connection.
    So you cite one movie and one videographer using Adobe Premier for your premise that Final Cut is dead in Hollywood?
    Your argument that Apple locks you into everything in their world can be countered by saying Windows and Windows PCs lock you into the Windows world. What's your point?
    Apple is not discontinuing their computers platforms any time soon.
    All you are regurgitating is rumor. Probably from all of the PC crowd.
    iMacs and professional desktop Macs are not going anywhere.
    Currently, Apple is the only desktop/laptop computer maker that is still making a profit on their Macs and increasing their market share percentages for the last 5 years during which the PC market has continually slumped/dropped in its market share.
