Why not my new Flex2 arrived with a user already inside?

I ordered my laptop direct from Lenovo. When he came yesterday, I turned it on and rather than be asked to put up with my information, it was already loaded with the e-mail address of another person (IE, someone else had already set up). I called twice now--once to talk to technical support, who had me do a factory restore, and once to talk to the sales people. They all have both said will display it the number of new series, and they offered me $69 for my troubles. I am still weirded out, especially in the light of this adware issue it is Lenovo infestation.

Should I ask for a replacement, or is it a factory restore enough?

A factory restore is sufficient.

  • Windows Windows 8 does not properly after deleting important files to user (already tried everything I found things different from +-10)

    well, I'll start from the beginning.

    the first big mistake I did was change the permissions of the administrator until he was the same trustedinstaller (without this I wouldn't do stupid things, but I did it for a change of details in the registry)

    the strange thing that I've been in conflict with, is that this pc was my mother, so everything to his e-mail address and his name 'Nancy' after some time she gave me the pc so I made my own top user account named "maxim" (that's my name) on my email address and probably deleted the user account from my mother named Nancy so no problem until something has started to bored

    the usersection in solution under C: contained Explorer still card Nancy with some of its documents on the left and some (I have something windowsrelated files)

    so I thought why not remove that card and saw that a card with my name was there too in the usersection, these same unknown files which I think are windowsrelated (btw, these files were hidden but ofcourse to check everything I have chekced the area to see hidden files in Explorer)

    I know not the name of all the files that I have demolished within this named Nancy in user card, but as far as I know, is that files that I noticed (these hidden files) are 7 files ntuser and those who are also in the plan named maxim in this usersectionso I thought no problem and delete the files as managed (with edited permissions)

    now I certainly delete files that I wasn't allowed to, and who were required to run windows properly, I know that, because of the errors, I am when I try to start things or when I try to fix things

    now I searched a LOT on the web especially in the microsoft forums and I fount a lot of 'solutions' that did not work for me

    most of the time, it was because I get an error because I could not more process these configurations etc.

    and somethimes as the scan SFC, he said that the correction of some problems, but there are many problems left that cannot be repaired in this way

    also almost everything I'm doing atm (also when I try to fix my problem) that I have to do with a big traverse most of the time I use "this run dialog box" or the command prompt

    now, these are all the things I tried

    -each 2013 thing tuneup utilities can do (scans included registery) of course I don't know the exact names of the files important I lost so I couldn't those used with tuneup

    -do you have some full scans with Norton 2013 (did not find any problem)

    -does this scan SFC and said there are still problems and has not noticed any difference

    -tried to update my pc did not work (missing windows services)

    -a tried to restart something in the registry did not work (missing windows services)

    -tried to make a new user on my pc did not work (missing windows services)

    -also tried lots of windows, fix things program (I forgot the name of it, but he could only tell me that he had problems and could not fix their)

    I'm shure that I have tried many other things so I mentioned in any case but I forgot the

    Many thanks if someone can help me out as sorry for the great story, but I wanted to tell all I know because it's a sensitive issue and please don't mind my bad English :)

    Your Windows product key can be printed on a label located on the underside of your laptop, if you don't you won't have it. Using the recovery partition, it is a good idea if you have no recovery on a disk media, often there is a Windows repair option, you can try this, however if there is no data on the first partition that you interested, I recommend you just format the partition for essentially erase everything on it and reinstalling Windows on the recovery partition. This will probably not require you to reactivate Windows by using the product key.

    If you cannot use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows, then you can go to this page (on the computer that is working properly) http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only and click on install Windows 8, save the file, run it and choose Install by creating media. This you will get an ISO file that you can burn on this disc you mentioned, just put the disc in your computer, right click on the ISO file and choose burn. It should also not ask to reactivate Windows, if you did no major hardware changes to the computer.
    Again, I would like to know if you need help with any of these steps or if none of these steps work for you.
  • Why not the new iPhone 6 connect to iTunes? It says I need to download the latest version of iTunes, but my version is the latest. 12.4.3.1

    I've updated iPhone 9.3.3 and iTunes for 12.4.3.1; both the latest versions

    But iTunes does not recognize my iPhone, why?

    Where you say that you need to download the latest version of iTunes? What is a ToolTip that appears in iTunes when you connect iPhone to your computer? Because if this is the case, iTunes detects your iPhone. So where is the problem? It won't let you not sync to iTunes? It won't let you save with iTunes?

  • Why not INSTALL new flash?

    New Player looks like it downloads, but when I get to the pop-up screen that has the options of "resignations" and 'install', it does not give the possibility to click on the rectangle to "install".  Install is dimmed... I tried to uninstall, that looked like it worked b/c the "Uninstall" button appeared, but even once after him trying to re - download, install is dimmed.  Help, please.  Using IE 8 (which says I have 128 bit.  I read everywhere either 32 or 64, but maybe I'm missing something).  Feel stupid!  Help, please!

    Hi, try again and look to the right by the word "Quit" it should be a little box that must be checked to accept the license agreement. It is very difficult to see, but once you verify that the install button will be active and work.

    Hope that helps and if not, after the return.

    Thank you

  • Why not the films I did with iMovie 10.1.2 by sharing the file play on anything but my computer

    Movie with iMovie 10.1.1 and 10.1.2 and sharing file then responsible for the thumb drive can be displayed on my computer.  PS3 shows corrupt file, Media Player WD is trying to read but the video is degrading and uneven sound, Samsung TV wonder for it please wait while it constantly spins its wheels without result.  Films made with previous versions play as they should.  I use the same end 09 i5 iMac, the same camera Nikon D5300 and tried several USB keys to FAT32.  The only difference is the version of iMovie.    Any suggestions?

    I don't know what movies formats your TV games - it is probably indicated in the instructions.  What is the format and other settings you chose when you have shared the project?  Another consideration is that FAT32 imposes a limit of file size about 2-4 GB.

    You might also consider to connect your computer to your TV with HDMI and use the TV as a second monitor.

  • Catalog does not appear photos when opened with different user.

    The organization I work for stores its photos on an external hard drive, managed through Lightroom.

    I connect, connect the drive and work with photos, and when someone else needs to work with the photos they log on a guest account.

    In the last six months, after certainly several different systems and changes improvements, the catalog won't work properly on other user accounts. Although they may open the catalog, see folders and display thumbnails, the images themselves don't is not loading.

    Please address what to do.

    This is very probably a file permissions issue. It often occurs with upgrades of the OS.

    Using the Finder/Explorer, make sure that the guest account has read and write access in the catalogue, an extract from the records and all photos and files. I'm pretty lazy I'd give "everyone" access reading and writing on the external drive.

  • Why not use the static methods - example

    Hello world

    I would like to continue the below thread about "why not use static methods.
    Why not use the static methods
    with the concrete example.

    In my small application, I need to be able to send keystrokes. (java.awt.Robot class is used for this)
    I created the following class for these "operations" with static methods:
    public class KeyboardInput {
    
         private static Robot r;
         static {
              try {
                   r = new Robot();
              } catch (AWTException e) {
                   throw new RuntimeException(e + "Robot couldn't be initialized.");
              }
         }
         
         public static void wait(int millis){
              r.delay(millis);
         }
         
         public static void copy() {
              r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_CONTROL);
              r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_C);
              r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_C);
              r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_CONTROL);
         }
    
         public static void altTab() {
              r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
              r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_TAB);
              r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_TAB);
              r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
         }
    
                   // more methods like  paste(), tab(), shiftTab(), rightArrow()
    }
    You think it's a good solution? How could it be improved? I saw something Singleton vs somewhere of static methods. Wouldn't be better to use Singleton?

    Thanks for your comments in advance.

    Maheshguruswamy thanks for the tips on the steps create a singleton of this class.
    Perhaps you could say also why do you say that it would be preferable to use singleton? What is behind it? Thank you!

    In short, it seems to me that a single instance of your class will be able to coordinate actions across your entire application. If a singleton should be sufficient.

    But who doesn't answer why he expected prefer a singleton instead of a bunch of static methods. Functionally, the two are almost identical. In both cases, there is that a single 'thing' to call methods - either a single instance of the class or the class itself.

    To answer the question, the main reason to use a Singleton on a class of static methods is the same reason readers much of not static vs static decisions: polymorphism.

    If you use a Singleton (and and interface), you can do something like this:

    KeyboardInput kbi = get_some_instance_of_some_class_that_implements_KeyboardInput_somehow_maybe_from_a_factory();
    

    And then everything calling public methods of KBI has to know that there an implementor of this interface, without worrying about what concrete class is, and you can replace some implementation is appropriate in a given context. If you do not need to do, then the approach of the static method is probably enough.

    There are other reasons that may suggest a Singleton - serialization, persistence, use as a JavaBean pop to mind - but they are less frequent and less convincing in my experience.

    And finally, if this thing keeps updated a State between method calls, even if you can manage it with static member variables, it is more in line with the OO paradigm to make them non-static fields of an instance of this class.

  • When possible in Oracle Forms to insert a second line based on 1st row, so why not in the ADF?

    Mr President

    When possible in Oracle Forms to insert a second line based on 1st row, so why not in the ADF?

    The user just enter data in the Module of sales in one line of a Bill as below

    and it is displayed in two rows in financial Module.like below how to proceed in the ADF.

    You can see that invoice line contains the sales tax and the gross sales amounts, then it is posted to the financial Module above two lines.

    How to make ADF

    Respect of

    What I realized, this is:

    -You have a table in you screen.

    -You call CreateInsert 2 times to create 2 rows at the same time.

    -You will enter value in a specific column (c1) line1

    Looking for the value that you entered in row1 can be completely copied in the same column (c1), but in line2. is this correct?

    If so try to do the following:

    1. in the table inputText (c1) column set autoSubmit = true and setValueChangeListener to a method in backbean

    
           
    
    

    2. in the inputTextValueChangeListener method to write this code

      public void inputTextValueChangeListener(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent)
      {
        DCIteratorBinding tableIter = (DCIteratorBinding) BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry().get("tableIteratorName");// write table iterator name from pageDef.
        for (int i = 0; i < tableIter.getViewObject().getEstimatedRowCount(); i++)
        {
          ViewRowImpl myRow = (ViewRowImpl) tableIter.getRowAtRangeIndex(i);
          EntityImpl entityImpl = myRow.getEntity(0);
          if (EntityImpl.STATUS_NEW == entityImpl.getEntityState())
          {
            System.out.println("New row found");
            myRow.setAttribute("AttributeName", valueChangeEvent.getNewValue());// write attribute name
          }
        }
      }
    

    3 - Add inputText id in the partialTrigger table

    
    

    4 - pageDef. Set of table iterator rangeSize = "-1".

    Hello rich trew,.

    Just to make sure that you understand it, some manufacturers of computers such as HP, Dell, Sony and gateway in the past have offered free software and operating systems. Microsoft Works was part of your first computer, but this has been the manufacturer of the computer. This has led people to believe that it is always included as part of the Windows operating systems. They included Microsoft Works, Roxio Easy CD Creator, Adobe Reader just name a few.

    Microsoft let computer makers bundle what they want, when they sell their OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) computers. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the computer what to offer and has nothing to do with the operating system of Microsoft.

    Thank you
