Yoga 2 Pro - Screen not rotating on new Windows 8.1 install

I got my new Yoga 2 Pro last week and the screen rotation worked properly.
I decided to wipe the partitions and install my own version of Windows 8.1.
Since then the screen rotation doesn't work. The screen rotation button doesn't do anything and I don't have the 'Enable auto-rotate' checkbox in the resolution screen
In my device manager I have an error on 'HID Sensor collection' saying "This decice cannot start" (Code 10). Failed to initialize sensor from HID collection descriptor". I am not sure if this is related.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I was able to fix my problem and would like to share the solution with others in case this also happens to you.
I basically installed this Media package (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42503) and after that the auto-rotate check, button and functions works properly.
Hope this can also helps others.

    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro will not load on  new Windows 7 Home Ultimate PC

    When I double click on the AA9 icon to initiate installation, it whirls away for a while then asks if I want to allow "this program to make changes to his computer?"  I click Yes and it begins to process again for a few minutes.  Then it displays the following Invalid Unicode file error message...and simply stops processing or installing.  In that last process, it also reaches out for whatever reason and activates the magnifier tool in Windows.
    I have thought that perhaps upgrading to a higher version of Windows might help, but who knows for sure?
    P.S. – This is a brand new HP Pavilion dv6 series computer that is more than adequate to this task.
    Thanks for your interest in helping!

  • Screen not rotating on new iPod Touch

    Got a new ipod Touch 5th Gen and the screen doesn't rotate. Checked and the portrait view is not locked. Anything else I should do or check? Thanks.

    What apps have you tried? Not all apps support screen rotation. Try Safari, that supports rotation.
    If astill problem:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Why can I not open a new window but I can open new tabs in V3.6.16?

    I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on both my PC and my laptop. The program works fine on my PC, I can open both new windows and new tabs. However, on my laptop I can not open a new window. Tabs open just fine, but when I try to open a new window nothing happens. Also, when I close the program after trying to open a new window the program is still running but I have no Firefox window to work in and therefore have to go through the Task Manager to end the program. And when I re-open it, I get asked if I want to restore the session or start a new session. Is there a way to

  • The wheel click button does not open a new window since the latest update (9.0.1)

    Hi
    I just want to report this bug in hope it will be fixed asap
    The wheel click button does not open a new window since the latest update (9.0.1)
    Thank you

    Middle-click or click the scroll-wheel on a hyperlink has always opened a '''new Tab'''. Any chance you had an add-on that changed that action, and now that add-on is disabled or incompatible?

    why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

    Nobody here can answer a question like that. Try rebooting your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Please check in the settings if the screen rotation is unlocked. Go to Settings> Screen rotation> Set to OFF.
    It is also possible that the problem is on the hardware side, particularly with the accelerometer. You may send the phone to Nokia Care Point for proper device status evaluation.

  • HT1338 Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Sorry for being unclear.
    When I am using the update in the App Store App, there will be a list of various applications that have updates to be installed (Final Cut Pro will be in this list).  I will already be logged in with the Apple ID I use for everything (my dev account).  I will be able to update all of the other various applications needing updating except for my Final Cut Pro.  When I click the update button next to the FCP update, it will give me an error saying  "This download is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"
    I have not had any applications refunded or cancelled and this has only happened since my update to Yosemite.  FCP was working fine until the upgrade.  Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

  • Under Windows 7, 64-bit, Firefox intermittently will not open a new window - all I get is a grey screen, with a tiny part of my homepage displayed in the top left corner of the screen.

    The problem began after a recent Firefox update. Occasionally, when I try to open a new Firefox window, all I get is a grey screen with a tiny section of my homepage visible in the top left corner of the screen. NOTE: Firefox stores all of these aborted attempts, as, whenever I close it and then re-open it, the first time I open a new window it automatically opens all of the windows that had originally failed to open.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == on or about June 26, 2010

    Got the exact same problem aswell, finally fed up with it now as i just started up firefox and 14 new windows opened because of this bug, luckily my computer can handle them but someone with a slower processor it would have been a nightmare, needs fixing ASAP.
    Reverting back to 3.6.3 until this issue is solved. (link for anyone wanting to do the same below)

  • 2009 Mac Pro will not boot up under Windows

    I have an Early 2009 Mac Pro system (Mac Pro 4,1) and I've had this system for 3 years already and have been working under OS X with this system ever since I purchased it.
    However, when I tried to boot off my Windows disk, something very interesting happens. The Mac Pro WILL NOT boot up off the Windows disk or a known working Windows partition if two monitors are connected. Upon holding down the option key and selecting the Windows partition, I will get a black screen on one monitor (the one connected via Mini Displayport) and the other screen receives no signal and will enter standby and the system is halted. It does not respond to keystrokes, there is no hard drive activity, no measured power increase on the UPS, no apparent network activity, nothing. The only way to exit this scenario (from what I can tell) is to power off the machine, disconnect the display on DVI, power on the machine again, select the Windows partition wait for the system to reach the login window and reconnect the DVI monitor (at which time Windows recognizes it immediately and the system works fine again).
    My question to the community is, does anybody know why this is happening and is there a known fix for this? Quite frankly, having to disconnect a monitor just to restart is very tedious and frustrating. 
    I have two Samsung P2350 monitors attached to an ATI Radeon HD 4870 (512MB, from Apple). One is monitor is connected via directly DVI and the other is using a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter. Both monitors work fine under OS X with no issue. At first, I thought that this may be a driver issue on the Windows side and after installing all the latest updates and drivers the issue is still apparent. From what I can tell, this doesn't seem like a software issue but rather a firmware or EFI issue as this happens before Windows even loads.
    If anyone knows of a fix or what to do in this situation, or if you are also having this issue, I would love to hear your input!
    Thank you!
    For the record, I am running all the latest software builds on the OS X side (10.7.4, not that it would really matter at this point). I have also disconnected all unnecessary equipment in a trial and error scenario but the results are still the same.
    The system passes all ASD testing.
    The full specification of the computer and all connected equipment are as follows:
    2009 Mac Pro (4,1) 8-Core
    2x Intel Xeon Nehalem 2.66GHz Quad-Core CPUs
    16GB DDR3 ECC 1066MHz RAM (Apple Branded)
    Two OWC 120GB SSDs (One for OS X, the other for Windows 7 x64) - These are in place of my optical drives.
    4x 2TB WD Black Hard drives for storage.
    Two Samsung P2350 Monitors connected via DVI. (One using a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter).

    In Windows I am using the latest (12.4) Catalyst Software Suite, 64 bit of course, downloaded directly from AMD's site after installing the drivers from Boot Camp.
    As for installing Windows I used an original (not burned) installation media (Disk is in a pristine condition). And yes, Windows is fine, the problem just seems to be getting the system to boot up Windows with that second monitor. However if the "problem monitor" is disconnected the system boots fine 100% of the time and connecting it later after booting the system will still operate properly.
    For the sake of arguement I swapped monitor cables and connected the "second" monitor to the mini displayport adapter to verify that it wasn't a cabling issue and I'm still yielding the same issues.
    As for GPU testing, I've played games (Crysis, Grand Theft Auto IV, Battlefield 3, etc.) and I've had no issues with the card or stability.
    You would think that Apple would try to find a fix for this, especially considering the caliber of this machine.

  • Thunderbolt port not working in new Windows 8.1 32 bit install

    I have a new HP Zbook 15 G2 that came with 64 bit operating systems for both Windows 8 and 7. I chose to install the windows 7 version, and the thunderbolt port is recognized properly and works fine. Howver due to the need for video capture in a 32 bit system, I chose to install a new windows 8.1 32 bit system on a new ssd. The install went great and everything is updated and working except the thunderbolt port. I have searched for a compatible driver, but I cannot find one. Is there a way to get this thunderbolt port working in this os? 

    I had a similar issue after upgrading my windows 8 os to 8.1. The volume bar would move, but the actual volume coming out did not change. Downloading the latest windows 8.1 audio driver from Lenovo fixed it for me.

  • IPhone 6 Plus Screen Not Rotating in Text Message Mode

    Brand new 6 Plus, and it seems about half the time when I click in the "message" portion to start typing a text and rotate the phone on it's side 80 percent of the time it does not rotate into Landscape "horizontal"  mode, but stays in Portrait mode "vertical". Screen Lock is not on. I do not have large text or large screen size on. I have turned the phone off and on. I have reformatted the phone twice and started fresh with a new 8.1 install. As an avid emailer/texter and someone who relies on their phone for their business, I am hoping to find a solution soon.

    I've also experienced this same problem using snapseed.  It's really frustrating to use the app.

  • Yoga Pro 2 Can't Connect to Windows Store

    I have a 3 day old Yoga Pro 2 with Windows 8.1. I love it... But it won't connect to the Windows Store (just says there's no internet connection). I Googled this and found lots of advice on the Microsoft Forum as many people have had issues connecting to the store. ... Check anti virus, clear store cache, run a trouble shooter, check user settings etc none of which have worked. I put a post on the Microsoft Forum and but because it's a new machine users there say it's a Lenovo problem? 
    Please help because there's no point in the Start page without apps and I may as well swop it for an Apple. 

    Hi,
    Firstly, try to use WSRESET command to clear Store cache for test.
    In addition, Use APP trouble shooter to fix it.
