Yoga 2 Pro no longer detects orientation/transitions and lid closing for sleeping

My Yoga 2 Pro used to detect orientation and transition with no problem and the Transition app would pop-up the notification for Tent mode or Tablet mode, etc.
Everything worked great... then, within last couple weeks, it stopped detecting closure of the lid to trigger sleep mode (though the screen would go black) and now I've also found that it has stopped detecting the different modes and will only operate in Laptop mode... no Tent mode, no Tablet mode, etc.
Now, to put it into sleep mode, I have to select it from the Start menu and then close the lid (it does detect reopening the lid and wakes up as usual).
Obviously not having the ability to use those other 3 modes kinda defeats the purpose and value of having a Yoga 2 Pro!
Suggestions welcome for research to aid in restoring this functionality...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go to Control Panel >> Device Manager
There is Sensor devices tab there.
Can you post a screenshot of how that is looking?
One thing that you can try.
Switch off your laptop.
Disconnect power supply
Press power button for 30 seconds.
Then turn on and test.

My macbook pro no longer detects my camera.

My macbook pro no longer detects my camera.
After downloading thousands of photos, my mac no longer sees my camera. Nothing has changed. I have tried restarting the mac, using fresh batteries, different usb ports. When I try to download photos, iphoto opens up on it’s own, but my camera does not show up. Neither does it show up in any finder window, or under disk utilities.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As Terence said you're experiencing a kernel panic. Boot into your System install disk and launch Disk Utility from the Utilities menu in the first window after the language selection window. Repair the disk. If DU finds problems and runs repairs do it a second time and then reboot.

Using the GT70 with external monitor and lid closed

I wasn't sure where to post this question.
I have several laptops and use external monitors. I close the lid on the laptops and the display continues to work.
On the GT70, the system shuts down. It won't allow me to use the external keyboard and mouse or display the session.
Any suggestions if there is a configuration option to allow the GT70 to continue to function with external monitor and lid closed.

Yup. This is a windows setting. You need to go into your control panel -> power options -> "Choose when the computer sleeps" and "Choose what closing the lid does"
That should solve the problem. I currently have my GT70 hooked up to a 42" TV and I can close the lid and it stays on and the TV continues displaying as well. No problems. =]

Where can I get more filters, transitions and special effects for FC?

I thought I heard that there is a third party company that has transitions and cool effects and filters I could use with final cut express. Does anyone know who they are, and if they are creditable?
THANKS!

Oh no I don't have a problem with free and I don't think expensive things means it's better. It's just easier to install a couple discs of software then to go through a bunch of sites and sift through all the free ones. I used to use iMovie and GeeThree made it easy with all their discs. That's why I am looking for software. Plus if anything ever happens to my computer it wouldn't take any time at all to reinstall the CD then to go through and find everything again. Thank you again for your suggestions.

Restarting MacBook pro with cinema display and lid closed?

Is it possible to restart the macbook pro with its lid closed when it is hooked to an apple 20" cinema display?
I have a 15" macbook pro 2.33GHz and want to be able to use it like a desktop system with just the external display when I am at home.
Also should I worry about heat issues running it with the lid closed sitting on the wood desk top?
Thanks

Thanks, I just realized that I phrased my question rather badly.
My real problem is how to start my computer without opening up the lid. I have a stand on my desk that the display is on and the macbook slides under when it's closed. Having to unplug it and pull it out every time it is shut down and needs to be started is rather a pain. The button on the side of the display seems to work for sleep/restart/shut down, but it doesn't seem to be able to start the computer once it is shut down; so my question is, is this possible?... am I dreaming?

Frame, transition and other effects for FCP

hi forum....
I'm still waiting for my Version 5 upgrade, and was wondering if there are any cool frame, transition or other effects out there that anyone can recommend? I'm looking for frames for PIP, "flash" for transitioning between vid and jpegs, other cool transitions, etc.
Thanks for your time!

Here is a list of plugins that exist for FCP:

Thinkpad X220: bad wlan connection when docked and lid closed

Dear forum
I use a Lenovo ThinkPad X220. I have no trouble with the wlan connection when i use the notebook alone. The wlan connection is also stable when i use the notebook plugged in the dockingstation with the lid open. But when I use the notebook plugged in the dockingstation with the lid closed my wlan connection drops regularely to about 2 Mbps and gets very unstable.
The ThinkPad uses the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 wlan network controller:
$ lspci | grep 6205
03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [Taylor Peak] (rev 34)
The network controller uses the iwlwifi driver, that comes with the current linux-firmware package:
$ pacman -Ss linux-firmware
core/linux-firmware 20150206.17657c3-1 [Installiert]
Firmware files for Linux
I didn't change any options of the kernel module, everything runs in default mode:
$ modinfo -p iwlwifi
swcrypto:using crypto in software (default 0 [hardware]) (int)
11n_disable:disable 11n functionality, bitmap: 1: full, 2: disable agg TX, 4: disable agg RX, 8 enable agg TX (uint)
amsdu_size_8K:enable 8K amsdu size (default 0) (int)
fw_restart:restart firmware in case of error (default true) (bool)
antenna_coupling:specify antenna coupling in dB (default: 0 dB) (int)
wd_disable:Disable stuck queue watchdog timer 0=system default, 1=disable (default: 1) (int)
nvm_file:NVM file name (charp)
uapsd_disable:disable U-APSD functionality (default: Y) (bool)
bt_coex_active:enable wifi/bt co-exist (default: enable) (bool)
led_mode:0=system default, 1=On(RF On)/Off(RF Off), 2=blinking, 3=Off (default: 0) (int)
power_save:enable WiFi power management (default: disable) (bool)
power_level:default power save level (range from 1 - 5, default: 1) (int)
fw_monitor:firmware monitor - to debug FW (default: false - needs lots of memory) (bool)
At first I thought, the problem could be caused by the KDE power saving settings. I changed the settings, so nothing happens when I close the lid (no hibbernation or screen lock or something like that), but without success (the wlan connection is still unstable under the described circumstances).
Also dmesg shows nothing that points out a problem (as far as I can see):
$ dmesg | grep iwlwifi
[ 19.688522] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: can't disable ASPM; OS doesn't have ASPM control

[ 68.923192] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Radio type=0x1-0x2-0x0
So I have no idea where this strange behaviour comes from (only wild guesses: buildfactor, antenna orientation,...).
Any help would be really appreciated.

hmmm...
how about checking both your wired and wireless nic drivers in device manager to make sure that the "allow computer to turn off this device to save power" checkbox on the power management tab is deselected.

What do i do if my (a.) my itunes no longer detects my ipod, and (b.) no sound comes out of the headphone jack? The ipod still turns on, operates, and charges.

My ipod still works as far as powering up and operating is concerned, but it suddenly stopped outputting a signal through the sound jack. Also it no longer is detected by itunes in the source list.

It would be odd if both of those problems happened at the same time, since they seem unrelated (unless you dropped the iPod or got it wet or had some other accident).
Check the other end of both of those connections first. Try a different set of headphones. Try a different docking cable. Try a different USB port. Make sure the computer has been restarted since having this problem.
If it still powers up to the main screen, and seems to play songs (although you can't hear them), that probably means the hard drive is still working. That's good, because it's the most valuable part, and the part that usually breaks first (on an iPod that has a hard drive).
If you can't get it working, you might consider getting a broken iPod on eBay. Chances are good that it is broken because of a bad hard drive (unless the description makes it clear that it's another problem), and the other parts (except maybe the battery) are likely to be OK. You can then swap its bad hard drive for your iPod's hard drive. Be sure to get the same type of iPod, including the thickness, because the 5th gen iPod came in two thicknesses (corresponding to the thickness/capacity of the hard drive mechanism).
This is one web site with instructions for disassembly
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Original
But don't spend too much money on it. The hard drive may appear to be working now, but you never know when it might fail.

IPod no longer detect the router and can't connect to internet

Hey guys, i'm new in the community and thought that you may can help me with a lil' problem.
I bought my iPod one month ago and at first successfully connected to internet, then download the iOS 4.3 and continued working well for a few days 'till it just stop connecting to the web. I searched everywhere and found some things that helped but not solved my problem.
I have all my network data, the IP, Subnet Mask and DNS, the only one that does NOT work is the Router. I even tried putting the numbers myself by Static, but it didn't work.
Can somebody help me or tell me what da **** is goin' on?
By the way, my Internet service is Prodigy Infinitum ('cause i'm Mexican).
Thanks(:

Try:

Which MacBook Pros are safe to buy used and not recalled for video graphics/display failure (due to overheating)?

I've had some bad luck with MacBook Pros lately. I bought a 2010 model but it was effectively a Total Loss because of a vehicle accident. From searching with Google, people have reported logic board failures. Who knows if mine would've failed, too.
Then I bought an older 2009 MacBook Pro and that eventually failed due to the graphics chip failure. There was a recall on it but the problem occured JUST after the recall period expired. I don't have a microwave solder lying around or a proper setup to fix the problem myself.
Now, I im in the market for a used MacBook Pro, as a gift (I can't afford a new one right now) (with the luck I have, I'm basically done with them but the person wants one).
I've seen some 2011 models priced quite attractively, which caused me to do a quick check and find that the (early) 2011 models also have video graphic failures. I don't get it. I understand paying for the name, but the name also has to have reliability and you don't hear about video graphics failures from some of the more well known PC manufacturers..just saying.
I'd strongly prefer to not purchase any retina models, if at all possible. I want a mechanical SATA HDD and an optical drive. I oppose proprietary components -- as I understand it, the retina models make it nearly impossible to upgrade.
Which used MacBook Pros are safe for purchase? In other words, which ones do not have recalls or are susceptible to video graphics/display failures? I don't want to put the money down for one, only to hear it kicked the bucket and it needs service and is out of warranty.
Thank you for your time.
