Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: Dynamic Enabling Of Touchpad

Jan 15, 2015

I mostly use a mouse and I am getting annoying mouse pointer jumps when I inadvertantly touch the touchpad while typing.  It seems like just pressure on the area outside of the touchpad is enough to make the pointer jump.  I would like the touchpad to be disabled when a mouse is present on the system and be enabed when no mouse is present.  I would not want to be caught having to find my way to the Control Panel using keystrokes.It does not seem like this is possible so I am hoping that Lenovo is monitoring these posts.

Lenovo ThinkPad W Series :: Disable Touchpad On W530

Sep 20, 2012

Is there the ability to disable the touchpad on the W530? I don't see it as an option in the function keys. I am using a mouse and it's a bit annoying brushing my hand against it and having it mess something up.

Lenovo ThinkPad W Series :: W530 - Smart Palmcheck On Touchpad Buttons

Mar 6, 2013

I'm using a W530 with the following configuration :
 
Windows 8.1 x64
Synaptics driver 16.2.19.14
 
My problem is that even though I set the PalmCheck settings to minimum, I have a delay before I can use the left button under the touchpad. The PalmCheck seems to work only on the touchpad functionnalities, not on the buttons below.
 
How to use those left/right physical buttons below the touchpad while hitting keys on the keyboard ?

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: Completely Disable Touchpad And Trackpoint On X1 Carbon

Jul 31, 2014

Is there any way to completely disable the touchpad and trackpoint on the X1 Carbon without going into bios?
 
I am able to disable touchpad OR trackpoint by going into mouse properties in control panel but it won't let me do both.  I would like to turn it back on relatively easily if possible.
 
I am trying to do this on a work computer and I have no administrative rights and I am using Windows 7 Professional.
 
Can this be done or did Lenovo completely overlook such a simple feature?

Lenovo ThinkPad W Series :: W530 UltraNav Settings Dialog For Touchpad And Stickpoint?

Aug 2, 2008

When I've got my ThinkPad w530, there was (as usually at every ThinkPad laptop) UltaNav enhanced setting dialog (if I remember correctly, these settings resided at the last tab of OS mouse settings dialog - Control Panel -> Mouse). I have spent a lot of time to configure touchpad according to my needs.
 
But than I've updated my Windows 7 x64, as Microsoft recommended, and installed some hardware drivers and user applications... And at some moment I've suddenly discovered, that the touchpad and the stickpoint do not work anymore the way I've configured them. Yes, they work, but in the most basic default mode.
 
Furthermore, when I tried to look at the configuration dialog I had used before to configure them, I found, that this settings dialog is totally gone.
 
Now my Windows Control Panel mouse setting menu looks as the following screenshot: [URL] ....
 
Is there any way to restore (re-activate) manually Lenovo UltraNav settings dialog for the touchpad and the stickpoint?

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: Spiral Symbol When Move Finger On Ultranav Touchpad?

Jun 24, 2014

I get this spiral symbol (see above image) in place of my mouse indicator when I move my fingers a certain way on the ultranav mousepad.
 
One way it occurs is if I move my finger from left to right or right to left across the bottom of the ultranav mousepad.
 
It interferes with me being able to move the mouse.  I suspect it is to prevent inadvertant movement of the mouse when your finger just brushed the ultranav mousepad.  I would like to turn it off if possible.

Lenovo B / G Series :: Enabling VT-x In BIOS Of G780

Aug 18, 2012

I've tried to set up a 64bit guest operating system in VMWare and in VirtualBox, but have been unable to. I understand that the problem might be that VT-x is not enabled in the BIOS. However, on booting up my G780 and using F2 to edit the  settings I don't see anything related to VT.

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: After Latest Update Touchpad Display Grey Circle Icon On X201s

Jun 30, 2009

After the latest set of updates, my touchpad took to displaying a stationary gray circle/swirl half the time when I tried to move the cursor. Seemed to happen less if I moved very slowly. I turned off scrolling (again), and it's mostly gone away. Is this related to scrolling?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y510p - Enabling Intel HD Graphics 4600

Jun 10, 2014

Currently I have twice the nVidia gt 755m, working on SLI. Though a lot of games I play are incompatible with SLI and will heat op my laptop with bad performace. I could turn off my SLI option to have some normal fps again, but since skype and my mouse driver needs to be turned off everytime I want to turn on or off SLI it is not really my favorite option.

When you have twice the nvidia, the bios will automatically turn off the intel hd graphics. I would like to know if there is a possibility to turn on the intel hd graphics, then I could run my desktop + the programs that need to be turned of for the switching on the intel hd. I hope this would be possible to enable and that there will be no power issues when turning it on (3 graphic cards will take some power).

Lenovo ThinkPad L R/SL :: Touchpad Sensitivity Could Be Adjusted Via The Control Panel

Aug 11, 2008

My touchpad is supersensitive and if I get anywhere near it I find I have selected text or opened a link or done some other activity that I didn't want to do.A previous thread said that the sensitivity could be adjusted via the Control Panel.  Well, I have it at its lowest, and it doesn't seem to act any differently.  I do not want to disable the touchpad, just make it act normally.

Lenovo 11e E/Edge :: ThinkPad E520 - Touchpad Without Left-click Functionality

Sep 8, 2012

I am encountering serious problems with my Thinkpad Edge E520.
 
The left-mouse-click function of my UltraNav and Touchpad are not working anymore. The buttons are clicking normally, but do not have any functionality.
 
I am using a dual boot system with Win7 Home Premium SP1 and Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS... I did several checks:
 
Touchpad navigation and right-click button working properly
Touchpad left-click-button clicking properly, but no functionality
Touchpad click functionality not working

UltraNav Trackpoint and rickt-click-button working properly
UltraNav left-click-button clicking properly, but no functionality
Switching to Left-handed setup results in a properly working right-click-button with left-click function for Touchpad and UltraNav

External USB mouse working properly with Win7 
External USB mouse not working properly with Ubuntu (no left-click functionality)

Fresh format and reinstall of dual boot system - problems remaining ... Since the behavious is the same with Win7 and Ubuntu and also remains after a fresh installation of both OS, I assume it is a hardware defect!?

Lenovo ThinkPad L R/SL :: SL510 Touchpad Displays A Button Not Arrow - How To Change It

Jan 3, 2012

Just got a Thinkpad SL510 2847 D2U, Windows 7 Prof.(64 bit).   

Often when I touch the Touchpad I see the arrow on screen change to a "button" being displayed.  And the button is not like using the arrow.  Very difficult to work with it.  So I keep moving around Touchpad to get rid of the "button" and return to arrow.

How to rid of this "button" action?  Or what am I doing to cause it? I believe I have changed the sensitivity of the touchpad.  I'll check again.

Lenovo G50 B / G Series :: Touchpad Don't Response?

The touchpad of my Lenovo G50 (i3-4010U) is not working properly (windows 8.1). Sometimes when I use the touchpad, the arrow don’t move. Until it close and open the display, it’s don’t move. In addition, this method does not always work. I have gone to options and I've turned off touchpad options "two fingers" mode, but nothing change. I have still in function an old notebook pc (from 2007, not Lenovo!), and has never had this kind of problem. I need my computer for travel work but this problem becomes very difficult my job.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Enabling Secure Boot On T430s?

Jun 17, 2010

My laptop was running Windows 8.1 with SecureBoot enabled just fine. But I just swapped out my boot drive for a bigger SSD and, when I tried to boot from my USB installation media (to do a fresh Windows 8.1 install), nothing would happen (the screen would just flash when I tried to select the USB drive). I realized I had to disable Secure Boot in order to boot from the USB drive and then to enable booting from legacy/non-UEFI devices.
 
So now I've been able to install Windows 8.1 and it's running without a hitch, but Secure Boot is still in the disabled state. When I enable it, I can't boot from anything. How can I re-enable Secure Boot with my fresh Windows 8.1 install? Or if I have to reinstall, what steps do I need to take this time?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z710 - Touchpad On / Off Setting

Mar 13, 2014

The touchpad on/off function does not persist through system lock/unlock. For instance, with the touchpad disabled, locking my computer will re-enable the touchpad (as will signing back in to my computer account if I take the trouble to disable the touchpad before entering my password).
 
I permenantly use an external mouse, want to leave my touchpad disabled as it interferes with typing. Thus, I see this as a bug. Is there any way to change this behavior short of a bug report? Perhaps some buried setting?
 
Running Win 8.1, user is account password protected, but not linked to a Windows live account.
 
Edit: Laptop has a Synaptics touchpad.
 
Solution: Solved by going into Control Panel -> Mouse Settings -> Change Mouse settings -> Device Settings -> Settings (Device needs to be enabled for this to be accessible) -> Advance Tab ->  Touchpad Status
 
Under touchpad status, setting was changed to 'keep previous enable/disable status'.

The touchpad shows only as a mouse, and scrolling & the fn+f6 option do not worked, I had it on win 8&7, worked on neither of them. I couldn't find a dedicated driver for it, and I couldn't find a post that states whether this touch pad should have those options working or it was never intended to.

I bought a N500 before 1 day and today..the "second day" the touchpad is not working anymore. I did nothing special so far with the notebook, its not working on the pre-installled vista and ubuntu. so it can´t be a driver failure. Is there any special secret key to disable it? maybe i pressed a button wihout care.. 
 
I plugged a usb mouse and its working well, but that could be not a solution because I very need the touchpad working!

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y410p Touchpad Stopped Working

Feb 12, 2012

My Y410p is about six months old. Today, while using the computer, the touchpad stopped working suddenly. 

Touchpad is enabled in mouse settings, and device manager says drivers are up to date and that the device is working.

However, the touchpad is completely unresponsive, and restarting the computer didn't do anything. Is there anything else that could be done? Or should I believe that this is hardware failure?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y500 Touchpad Two-finger-tap Not Working

Apr 21, 2013

I bought my Y500 a few days ago and happy with it in general. However, one day the two-finger-tap (for right click) on the touchpad stopped working. Below is a description.
 
Everything else as far as I can tell, including two-finger scroll and one-finger tap and so forth, are working fine, but the two-finger tap stopped working even though it worked fine for a few days. I have a suspicious as to what caused it but I'm not entirely sure. In any case I think it's most likely a bug, and probably software.

One day I went into "control panel" -> "mouse" -> "device settings" -> "settings..." -> "Scrolling" -> "two-finger scrolling" -> "enable coasting". I played with coasting for a while, and soon disabled it again because I didn't really like it. However, it was then that I noticed that my two-finger tap stopped working. I have doubled-checked that "control panel" -> "mouse" -> "device settings" -> "settings..." -> "clicking" -> "two-finger click" is set to "secondary click (context menu, special drag)", but the two-finger click still doesn't work, even after a restarted. I downloaded the latest driver (version 16.2.18.0) and it still didn't work. I uninstalled the driver and installed it again and it still doesn't work. Now I like using the touchpad, but really hate living without two-finger tap for right-clicking.
