Tablet/Desktopmode X1 Yoga Gen 4 Windows 11
I bought a used X1 Yoga Gen 4 from a German refurbished website. The laptop is working perfectly with just one issue. As I flip the screen, to use the laptop as a tablet, the switch mode between tablet mode and desktop mode is pretty inconsistent. I updated several drivers, made a diagnostic run on the Lenovo website and the problem still appears. After a flip, sometimes it gets into tablet mode, but after flipping it back, it stays in the mode, the taskbar is in tablet mode and keyboard and mouse pad is shut off. I need to restart the computer and it works. I tried several software solutions, but from now, nothing worked. In win 10 there have been a button on the pop up menu, or with win + A, that can toggle between tablet and desktop mode. It seems, that windows 11 deleted this possibility completely. I tried to do this manually with a ai suggested .bat Skript, that toggles between the two modes, or set the status to desktop or, tablet but this had no effect. Despairing of the solution methods, it could be the sensor... Does anyone else got this problems with win 11 and more importantly, would anyone have a suggestion for a solution? Thank you.
Windows 11 showing no internet when connected
the no internet is visible in the bottom right and in windows settings, also mcsf connect test fails every time I wouldnt really mind if this was just a visual glitch but I can't download any windows updates or even log into websites like spotify because of this. It started happening out of nowhere after I reset my windows and yes I tried reinstalling drivers and resetting my network.
Help with my laptop (Windows 11 )bios
I've been trying to activate turbo boost in the bios (yes i tryied putting windows in high performance and using other programs but i want it to stay always on) but i can't see the Advanced tab. Is there a way to make it appear with a specific key combination? edit: i also noticed that my bios version isn't listed anymore on the hp support page, it now lists the F.68 Rev.AQuestion about iTunes music download to pc on windows 11?
Hello! I've bought a bunch of songs on iTunes over the years, and I'd love to download them directly onto my Windows PC so I can listen offline without using my iPhone or the Apple Music app. Is that actually possible for iTunes music download to pc? Every time I try to figure it out, I get confused between iTunes Store purchases, Apple Music subscription downloads, and what's just "streaming." I don't want to accidentally lose anything or break some rule. I'm using the regular iTunes app on Windows 11 PC. I just want a local backup of the actual music files like MP3s or whatever format they use so I can play them in other programs if needed. Thank you so much for any kind guidance!Volume decreases after enabling Enhanced Audio in Windows 11
After enabling the “Enhanced Audio” feature in System Settings, the playback volume noticeably decreases; when this feature is disabled, the volume returns to normal. Even without enabling any specific audio effects, simply toggling this feature on and off results in a noticeable difference in volume. I would like to understand the specific purpose of this feature and why this phenomenon occurs.Any fast and stable way to transfer pictures from iphone to computer?
I have over 100GB of pictures on my iPhone, and I need a reliable way to transfer them to my Windows PC without crashing halfway or missing files. I don't want cloud uploads (too slow for this much data), and I've had bad luck with random free tools freezing or disconnecting. What's the most stable method that actually works for transfer pictures from iphone to computer? USB cable? Some specific software? I'm on Windows 11, but open to any suggestion that won't fail after two hours of transferring. Please give me a straight answer with clear steps—no vague advice like "try iCloud" or "use a third-party tool" without naming names. I need something that handles 100GB in one go, keeps the original quality, and doesn't require me to babysit it. Bonus if it's free, but I'll pay for something that just works. Thanks!OBS interface randomly turns pitch black, except preview and program windows
Os - Windows 11, GPU - GTX 1650 Ti (laptop). Issue persists, I've updated Nvidia GPU drivers, updated OBS itself, but this thing keeps on for several months. When this is happening, I kinda locked in that, the only thing that helps me, is "Fold all windows" (I do it with three fingers swipe down on touchpad) and then I go to Desktop manager where I pin OBS to the side, then UI re-renders and everything works again. Couldn't find anything on the web, all searches lead me to Black Screen capture issue, which is not my case. Would be grateful for any advice.How do I [23F] stop being scared of the men trespassing our backyard
I thought I would be brave and strong when it comes to this but it turns out I am a scaredy cat. I was home alone this 10 in the morning when I heard footsteps around the house, and up in our roof. I was sure the men are back again in our backyard, stealing our fruits. We have avocado trees in our backyard just besides our roof so you would hear footsteps as well as banging sounds coming from falling avocadoes. I was home alone and was so scared I called everyone I could. I locked all doors, closed all our windows, and took a video of them from inside the house. I was seen by one of the men while he was smoking and hid from the camera. And so I got scared I ran inside my room and waited for the people I called. I was so scared my whole body was trembling and I wanted to cry. Our neighbor took pictures and got a photo of 2 men, one had a sword tattoo on the face. He demanded them to give the goods back and they did. Anyway, they went away after that and the police came 15 minutes later. But my point is, I was all alone, scared, wanted to cry, trembling and was paralyzed. All I could do is lock myself and wait for help. Even now after the police left I hurried to this cafe a few blocks away from my house because I couldn't stay at my home alone after all that, and I still want to cry. I have always thought I'm brave and strong but when it comes to this why am I the opposite? I'm like a scaredy cat. I couldn't move, I was shaking, I was panicking, I was worried, I was so scared. I don't wanna be like this. I want to be strong. But, how??Is it possible to stream a ps5 on a laptop screen?
I have managed to obtain a ps5 just for gta6 but all the stationary screens I have available are inconvenient. I’m pretty sure my laptop (windows) can’t accept video with just a cable. Is there a program that can work as an adapter or does play station offer streaming to other devices?
