Yoga 11s touchpad cursor jumps after finger release

Hi,
I have a problem with my yoga 11s touchpad on windows 8.1. Everytime I use the touchpad to point at something and then release the finger, the cursor jumps away. It does not jump far but it is enough to make me have to point again. I have the newest touchpad driver from the lenovo site installed. I tried all settings of this driver but it did not help.
Does anyone have the same problem or a solution for this problem?
Thanks and kindly
Peter

Yoga ThinkPad Touchpad Scrolling Issue after Windows 10 Upgrade

Yoga ThinkPad upgrade to Windows 10. My horizontal area at the bottom of the Touchpad scrolls the screen up and down, and the right vertical area of the Touchpad scrolls the screen left to right. The reverse direction choices only reverse up/down or left/right and not how the horizontal/vertical areas operate. Did anyone else experience this? Thanks.

Good day.
Could you clarify which model Yoga laptop you have, please?
Regards.

Envy 15 synaptics touchpad results in cursor jumping around page

Product Number: A9P60UA#ABA Envy 15 Notebook PC
OS = Windows 7
When typing (either email or word document), the cursor jumps around, inserting characters randomly. This has been a problem since I received the computer. The issue seems to be resolved if I disable the touchpad.

Please try reinstall the touchpad driver. or try the latest touchpad driver from hp.com which can help fix the issue.
Good luck !!!

Typing cursor jumps back to original position after clicking elsewhere

Hello!
My Macbook Air, since Day 1, has had the annoying issue described in the post subject. I'll be working on a document in iWork, (although this behavior pops up in every application) and I'll fix a typo or something in the body of the text. I'll then click back to the end of the document to continue typing. Then, when I start typing, the cursor jumps back to the typo that I fixed, with all my typing going in the wrong place. It happens a lot and it's maddening. I'm past my 90 days for phone support, so I'm hoping somebody here has run into the same issue.
And speaking of the 90 day issue... If I'm covered for a year, but can't talk to anyone for months 4-12, how on earth would I set up a warranty repair? Note, I'm nowhere near an apple store.

And speaking of the 90 day issue... If I'm covered for a year, but can't talk to anyone for months 4-12, how on earth would I set up a warranty repair? Note, I'm nowhere near an apple store.
You can always take your computer to a AASP, to locate one near you navigate to:
https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
You can do an SMC reset to see if that helps. Also if you purchase AppleCare this will extend the warranty and telephone support to 3 years from the original date of purchase. I would recommend you look into it. You can buy AppleCare directly from Apple or if you do some shopping you can save by buying from Apple resellers like Amazon or LA Computer Company.
_SMC RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
• On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
• Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.
_PRAM RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step
• Turn on the computer.
• Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
• Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
• Release the keys.

My pages stopped scrolling with cursor keys after upgrading to 5.0, the cursor moves WITHIN html documents and "jumps" from frame to frame and character to character within the frame.

Recently, I noticed that google search pages stopped scrolling. There is an "right arrow" at the beginning of each link. When I press the cursor "up/down" arrow on the keyboard, the cursor jumps from link to link. Also, while on any html webpage, the cursor moves one character at a time (left / right arrow) and one line at a time (up/down arrow) until the end of that frame is reached, it then jumps to the next frame.

Cursor Jumps on T61p Ultrapad

Just upgraded from a T43 to a T61p. Nice computer. The only problem, which could be a feature that I need to get used to is that when I move my finger on the ultrapad from the top to the bottom (or vice versa), the cursor jumps about two inches when my finger reaches the center point. If this is a feature to assist with navigation, I have found it a challenge in that the ultrapad on the T61 is smaller than the one on my old T43. Is there a way to disable or adjust this?

I suggest reseating the touchpad connector under the palm rest, instrauctions on how to remove the palm rest can be found here.

U400 Touchpad not disabling after Windows 8 consumer preview installation

The u400 touchpad used to disable when i pressed the f6 key. However, once i installed the Windows 8 consumer preview, the touchpad stopped disabling. I installed the newest driver (the one released Feb 8) and still have no luck. They funny thing is, when i press f6, a sign appears on the lower right corner that shows a disabled touchpad (touchpad with a line across it). However, the touchpad still functions.
This is a pretty big issue for me since I find it nearly impossible to type comfortably without the touchpad being disabled. (For example, my cursor jumped 5 times when typing this post) I am sure I am not the only one with this problem. Please help! Worse comes to worst, i will reinstall windows 7, but if there is anyway to fix this problem, please let me know.

I didn't have exactly this issue but wanted to permanently disable but that was not going to be easy. Mine was hypersensitive and totally messed up any keyboard work. I called tech support and they installed new software to lessen the sensitivity but now when I push F6 key to disable, the icon you described keeps popping up every keystroke. These Lenovo guys are just useless and so sorry I bought this computer.

Cursor Jumping In Windows 7 , outlook 2010 , word 2010

I've been reading around and it appears lots of peopel are experiencing this issue. Has anyone managed to fix this annoying issue of the cursor jumping around in when typing. I'm using a sony vaio laptop , windows 7 ?????

Hi jezrp,
Does the issue occur in other applications such as Notepad? If the issue only occurs in Microsoft Office 2010, you can post a thread on Office 2010 Forums.
However, if the issue occurs in other applications as well, please try the following suggestions to see if the issue can be resolved:
If the issue persists after installing the latest drivers which are compatible with Windows 7, the issue can be caused by the factors including third party software, device driver, touchpad settings, virus or spyware infection.
Please see if the following suggestions can resolve the issue:
-    If the issue occurred after installing certain software or hardware, please remove it to check the result. Or, you can perform System Restore to restore to the date before the issue first occurred.
-    Scan your system using anti-spyware and anti-virus software to confirm the system is clean.
-     Check the touchpad's sensitivity if it is available. You can simply disable the touchpad to test the result. You shall contact the device manufacturer directly to confirm the settings.
-    Use a mouse pad for better mouse performance.
-    Replace the mouse and check the result.
Regards,
Linda

Yoga 11s W8.1 Restart causes Blue Screen Of Death & Solution

After upgrade to Windows 8.1 (all the latest drivers) my Yoga 11s ends up in an endless "Blue Screen Of Death" when I select "Restart". This does not happen if I select "Shutdown" and then manually power on the Yoga 11s.
I found a solution to the problem: Disable "Fast Boot" in the BIOS.
If disabled the "Restart" takes longer but it work.
It seems to be a problem with drivers I guess.
My question is:
1) Do others have the same problem (or is it a HW defect)?
2) Does Lenovo know about this problem and will better Windows 8.1 drivers be released?
Thanks!

Dear Druid99
Welcome in lenovo community
Kindly be informed that the issue you currently facing is not related to the driver it's all about the compatibility between the machine the new upgraded windows . such all mentioned issues by yours always happened once the machine gets upgraded
in any way , please send us the BIOS version so that we can verify the issues more
Let me know
Thanks

Yoga 11s - Synaptic constantly using processor

Hi,
I'm on Windows 8.1 and I'm justrying to reduce all the background processes to lenghten the battery life on my 11s.
Despite having the latest Lenovo drivers I find that Synaptic touchpad process is always jumping around between 2-10% and it also seems to triggger "WMI provider host" which uses 2-4 % as well (If I delete Synaptic off then the WMI process doesn't appear in task mangager).
Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it? I guess I could just carry on without Synaptic but I'm guessing I'll lose some gestures (e.g. pinch to zoom etc) if I do that?
TIA
J

This is rather a app issue than a issue caused by the Yoga 11S. You might want to contact the developer of the app and report the bug there.
Consider using a alternative Windows Store app for the time being.

Trackpad click makes cursor jump right. How to fix?

When clicking on my trackpad (newish Macbook Pro) the cursor jumps right about 1cm. It can take bookmarks with it for example, drasgging them out of the tool bar, or just fail to action the clicked link. The second click is fine. To clarify, the first click either jumps right, away from target click area, or takes an item with it. I have been using a Mac since 1984 so I know how to click!!! This characteristic is irritating. Anuyone any ideas? Thanks

Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. Step 1 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.” While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin. Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)? After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it. *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. Step 2 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode. Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Yoga 11S WiFi issues

Hi all,
As with many I am experiencing severe Wifi issues with new Yoga 11s. I will try to explain in detail in the hope that someone who better understands how wifi really works might be able to help diagnose.
I have a Talktalk badged Huawei HG533 router. This delivers c.15Mbs reliably all around my house (2xTVs, computers up and downstairs, 2xphones). Using Speedtest.net to capture speeds.
With the Yoga, if I sit right next to the router (as I am now), I get 15Mbs. In other parts of the house I get just 0.5Mb, including rooms where other devices are measured at 15. I have updated drivers and upgraded to W8.1 though I experienced exactly the same problem before the upgrade.
I have tested every room and it seems that it will either work at very close to the maximum (in a few rooms) or drops off catastrophically to 0.5mb or less. There is no in between. I never lose connection altogether. There seems no correalation between the level of signal displayed (4 or 5 bars) and the speed.The 'good' rooms are separated by fewer walls.
I have also observed that on occasion having tested in a good room and then moving to one of the bad rooms it initially shows good performance, before seemingly recognising where it is and throttling back to unusable.
It is as though once it gets to a certain distance/separation/signal strength it somehow 'jams' the signal.
I really neeed to find a solution to this as 1. my office is one of the bad rooms and 2. I am often in hotels, airports etc and need reliable internet even in poor signal areas. Any help much appreciated.

Hey everyone, I just registered here and I couldn't find a solution. Apologies if this has been covered already.
I received the Yoga 11s i5 as part of an internship and after keeping the package under wraps for a month or two, I decided to give it a go and start using it instead of my Microsoft Surface. Everything works smooth and I love it to bits - except for the WiFi.
I was able to connect a few times, but for the most part it just doesn't work. The WiFi icon in the bottom right corner displays the adapter icon with a little red x, and the Windows troubleshooter is unable to find a solution. I'm really not sure what the problem is because, so far, my connectivity problem is entirely random - several times, I was able to connect and use the WiFi regularly only to be greeted with the same problem next time I start using the computer. The troubleshooter once displayed an error message amongst the lines of "The network adapter is experiencing hardware/software difficulties".
I don't know if it is worth mentioning that I live on a college campus with a dodgy wifi connection, but every other device I ever used is working properly. Any suggestions? Only thing I did try so far is refreshing the system and reinstalling Windows but, to no avail.
Thanks in advance!

Lenovo Yoga 11s SSD and RAM Upgrade - Great Results

Picked up a Lenovo Yoga 11s from Best Buy. I chose Best Buy for price, color, and processor. They had a slightly better deal than Lenovo.com. The clementine color looks great. Quality is great. I'm very happy with the purchase. It has the i5 processor, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD.
I upgraded the SSD and RAM and found the upgrade relatively easy. Here is a basic step by step and results. (note the parts I chose increased the cost by close to $400. I chose these parts based on quality, performance, and power usage. There are cheaper alternatives, but I wanted an upgrade and money was not my concern.)
Upgraded Parts
RAM - Patriot Memory 8GB PC3-12800 1600MHZ CL11 1.35V - Purchased at Newegg, but could have saved a couple dollars on Amazon.
I chose this part based on previous experience with Patriot and the low voltage RAM. A lot of the RAM is higher voltage and I wanted to make sure I reduced heat and power usage. When you look for 1.35V RAM, there are not a lot of options...
MSata SSD Drive - Intel SSD 525 Series 240GB Drive
Intel SSD Page
I purchased through Newegg
I chose the Intel drive based on previous experience with Intel. They cost more, but I've found their performance to be good and reliability good. There is also a good review on this drive on Tomshardware Tomshardware Intel 525 Review. Toms review shows top performing drive and low power. I also looked at many other manufacturers and Intel had the lower power consumption. This means less heat and longer battery life.
Cloning Software
Intel provides a free cloning software from Acronis
My Digital SSD MSata external case
I purchased through Newegg.
Nice quality device. I used this to help in cloning the OEM SSD to the new Intel drive.
T5 Torx Screw Driver
I purchased this from Home Depot T5 Torx Home Depot
I read all the reviews, posts and issues around cloning the Win8 SSD drives. Many people have/had issues. I was prepared for problems. Another reason I chose Intel, as they have migration software that I felt would be top notch.
You need to have the Hardware Manual handy. I read how to remove keyboard and top cover. This is required to upgrade RAM and SSD. It was very easy. Take your time. Note, this is very different than the Yoga 13 youtube video for part removal. I think it's easier. Here is the link to download manual Yoga 11s Hardware Manual.
How to clone your SSD
I expect if you're doing this project you can learn how to use the Intel software for cloning. Read the web, watch their youtube video. Read the manual...
Remove your factory SSD and insert new Intel SSD (note, you must insert Intel drive in notebook for cloning. Do not try and clone on the USB external drive. Intel software will not detect drive properly). Create a bootable version of the Intel software on a USB drive. Install your factory OEM SSD in the external MSata SSD drive. Go to BIOS and set boot to support legacy, no fast boot, boot to USB.
Boot to the Intel Acronis app on the USB drive. Then connect your OEM SSD via second USB port.
Then follow the wizard on Intel's software. Cloning process took less than 5 minutes.
Unplug your USB devices, go to BIOS and set all all your boot settings back to factory UEFI, fast boot etc.
The PC booted to windows second try. The first time it said it has issues and went through a process to repair. It then said it failed. I rebooted again and it went straight to windows. Did all my windows updates and everything is fine.
Performance
Windows Performance Improvement
Memory - Factory score was 5.9 - Patriot Memory is 8.2 *** Nice Improvement
Hard Drive - Factory score was 6.2 - Intel 525 Drive is 8.2 *** Nice Improvement
This pc is crazy fast booting and shutting down. It boots in 7 seconds. Not sure it's really faster than OEM, but I've never seen a pc boot this fast.
Over all performance is fast. I installed Office 2010 pro from a USB drive in under 5 minutes. Web browsing is crazy fast. I'm super impressed with the speed of this pc. Much faster than I expected.
Size, Shape, Weight, color is great. Performance is great. Happy with upgrades and quality of parts. May be my best notebook purchase to date. I don't have any battery life numbers to report yet. Everything is new and I haven't really spent much time off the charger.
Issues I've experienced during this upgrade of parts
I first tried to clone the SSD drive by putting the Intel drive in the USB enclosure first. The intel software would not work as the PC detects the external SSD drive as a SCSI drive and Intel cloning software could not identify the drive as an Intel Sata drive. I called Intel and they had no advice or help. I also tried a few other cloning softwares that ultimately did not work. As a last resort I switched the drives and everything worked great. Lesson learned, swap the drives first and use Intel software to clone.
Factory restore - doesn't work. Not sure why the factory restore is not working on my new Intel drive. Windows works great! All the partitions are there. I suspect I messed up the OEM restore portion of the drive. At one point I thought I had booted to the Intel drive, and tried the restore (I had about 7 failed cloning tries before the final one worked as I outlined above). It went through the restore process and then failed. However, what I later found was that I had actually booted to the OEM drive in the external USB case and I may have corrupted the restore functionality.
I contacted Lenovo Support and explained I could not restore using the 1 key restore. They walked me through some basic troubleshooting and then opted to mail me factory restore disk. I have the disk and will keep them available for when/if I ever need to restore.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I upgraded from the Yoga 13 to the 11S and am happy to report that the machines are so identical that apparently you can just yank the SSD from one and drop it in the other. I had upgraded my 13" to 240gB SSD + 8gB RAM and simply plopped the two components into the 11S and after about 30 seconds of Windows alerting me that it was 'setting up devices' the machine booted normally and has been working perfectly since!

Yoga 11s - how to boot from USB in UEFI mode (tried everything)

I have been trying for days to install Windows 7 on my new Yoga 11s in dual boot configuration with 8.1, with no luck. Typical catch-22 problem -- can't boot from the install media in UEFI mode, and if booted in legacy mode, Windows won't install on GPT partition. I followed all the steps everywhere mentioned: disabled secure boot, set boot mode and order in every possible combination, etc. I followed these steps exactly to create a UEFI-bootable USB drive:http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-8-and-8-1-Knowledge-Base/Why-can-t-I-boot-from-a-USB-key-on-UEFI-ThinkPad-or-ThinkCentre/ta-p/1004621 I can boot easily from the USB in legacy mode, but in UEFI mode, when starting the machine, the USB is ignored. If I go into Windows 8.1 recovery and do an advanced start and choose EFI USB, the machine thinks for a moment and then says: "System doesn't have any USB boot option. Please select other boot option in Boot Manager Menu." Then I click OK and it offers only one option on the menu, Windows Boot Manager. I don't know if the lack of boot options is just a symptom of the USB not really being UEFI-bootable, or some other steps are needed to add boot options. I even tried adding an item within the windows boot manager, but that didn't work, because even if it could work in principle I don't know the right settings. Has anyone actually made this work? If so, what is the secret?

I had the same problem and a lot of frustration. I finally solved the problem by using a different USB key. I also had to go into boot options and select the USB key even though I had the USB key first in the boot order. Right now I am Re-imaging from my backup and pray for success. Although things may look brigth afterall I have to leave out some steam:The whole problem started with a screen error, which had to be repaired. So before sending it to repair I made an image backup, - just in case. I got an eight hour time window where I had to wait for a pickup of the computer,- very frustrating when you are having a job requiring traveling. After ten days the computer computer came back with a scrambled hard disk with at note saying that it was an software error, although it was no doubt an hardware error because it worked perfectly with an external monitor. I have not counted the number of hours this bad service has costs but it exceeds the value of the computer!
