• How to change the infrared port on Satellite M30 to be IrDA to be direct IR?

  Hello world

  I just bought a new watch that should be able to communicate with a pc via the infrared port (it's the Polar S710).
  Unfortunately, it does not work as the 'Protocol' of the watch is directIR, rather than be IrDA, as is my cell phone.

  I saw somewhere that it would be possible to change the infrared port of my laptop in order to operate in directIR. Anyone know the procedure? I think I could change something directly in the driver, but I did not how to deal with.

  I would be very grateful if someone could help me.

  Thank you

• How to activate the Infrared Port on the Satellite X 200

  Hi all, I'm Italian (sorry for my English...)
  How Activate/activate the infrared port on my X 200?

  It seems that is not properly working, infact, all devices ir in the area are not recognized?
  Annex 'Device Manager'-'Network adapters' there is only 'WIFI LINK and Realtek '.

  Thank you all

  Hello

  As far as I know the X 200 supports a consumer Infrared Port.
  This isn't the protocols series infrared (SIR) or Fast Infrared (FIR) that can be used to transfer files over several other Toshiba laptops.
  Protocol Consumer IR (CIR), can receive commands from the remote control

• Turn off the Infrared Port

  I use a remote to turn my tv-related. When I use it well, it changes the setting on my laptop. His frustration through Netflix and strip off what I'm doing because I'm using the remote control. How can I disable the infrared port on my laptop so I can use my remote without problems?

  Hi Sarahelizabeth,
   
  Disable infrared

  You must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps.

  If your infrared computer ability does not, infrared can be disabled in Windows. If your computer has infrared technology, here's how to turn off the infrared connection:

  1. open the Manager of devices by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click System and security, and then, under system, clicking Device Manager.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  2. double-click on infrared devices.

  3. right click on the device, and then click disable.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• Satellite A100-153 does support IrDA (infrared)?

  Hi all
  I recently bought a Toshiba A100-153. My problem is I don't seem to have an infrared connection and I find no infrared driver for this model that I can use.
  When I go to Device Manager I don't see any device for IrDA. And if I go to the Control Panel, there is also no specific infrared configuration. But the manual says that this model A100-153 has an IR port, and I see the Port on the front of my laptop (Dummy!)
  Is there a driver I'm missing or if IR is not supported with this model (even if it have Ir Port)?

  Best regards

  Hello

  Check if Device Manager there is no entry of IrDA.
  If support for laptop computer and IrDA port so it should appear in the Device Manager.

  I downloaded a user manual and I found information that the port is provided only on some models.
  Maybe you unit doesn t support this port.

  I also found information that some units have been delivered with the remote control.
  That's why the remote control uses the IrDA receiver window on the front of the laptop to communicate with the laptop. (It s not usual port IrDA window)

• Fan always on with new Satellite A100-153, even on the low-energy setting

  Hello
  I just got a new A100. Its processor is a Centrino Duo.
  I am very surprised by the general noise of the machine. I had a front M30 including fan rarely provided on but on this new machine, the fan stops.
  I changed the power settings (proc low speed + low cooling method) but that doesn't change anything.
  The CPU is only 2 or 3% and I am working not all heavy duty applications, so this should not happen.

  What is your experience with the series A100 and the Centrino Dual Core in general?

  Is that what I can do to fix this problem or am I condemned to hear this stupid fan 24/7?

  Hello

  It is not easy to say why the fans run constantly.
  This problem occurs on new recovered BONES?
  In addition check you the version of the BIOS. If the most recent BIOS is available on the Web from Toshiba page so try to update. But I'm not 100% sure if it will solve the problem of fan.

• Satellite A100-153 infrared configure or disable

  Hello everyone this is my first post here.
  I want to know how I can configure the ir port so that I can use it with other programs as the media player.
  Also I have a problem with listening, the remote control of my amp seems to share some codes with the remote, I can change something codes using the infrared port?
  Does anyone know if the ir port can send too much or don't receive?
  Where can I get the remote control, it was not included when I bought my laptop?
  And finally, and almost more importantly, if I can't get the original remote or change the codes, how can I disable the infrared port?
  Many thx in advance

  Not all models are available with remote control and I put t think you can buy this remote somewhere always is that the remote control has limited functionality and is designed for use with this particular model and can be used with preinstalled Express Media Player (is available), WinDVD or Windows Media Player.

  All I know is any info on the possibility for port handling IR and its use with other remotes or change the functionality defined in any other direction. Definition of ort of built-in IR you can find in the document of the user s manual on page 35.

  Sorry, but I can't say more about it.

• Tecra 730CDT and infrared port

  Hi, I wonder if someone can help me. I have a 730CDT I know it is very old, but it has an IR port, and I thought that I would be able to get on the internet by connecting to my phone via infrared and using the phone as a modem, I know the internal modem cannot be used with mobile phones. The questions are: how to activate the IR port? I looked in the electronic manual under IR port, but all that appears is "diagnostic" and if I can activate the IR port successfully, so should I disable the internal modem before you connect the mobile phone? If anyone can help I would appreciate a lot that I'm going to Italy in the next few days and really need to be able to connect to the internet with the laptop. I'm not all clued up technically so denominated fool proof would be as good!

  Hello, Linda

  In my opinion the infrared data transfer speed is too slow, if you want to use the mobile phone as a modem. The problem is that connection can break down very often. Wireless or Bluetooth connection is much better.

  In any case, I found information that your device a infrared port. Usually the infrared port should be listed in the Device Manager and must be activated. The infrared option must be enabled on the mobile phone too. In this case, the mobile phone must be recognized by laptop.

  Next step is to add new modem (mobile phone) on the phone and modem options the tab of phone and modem options modem that you can find under the control panel.

  If the modem is successfully added create a connection manually please and define which modem should be used (mobile phone), provider name and phone number that needs to connect by modem.

  I'm trying to connect my phone to my laptop via the infrared port, but the phone tells me it cannot detect all devices when I put it right next to the port of FIR. Some how do I need to activate it first? The device manager says that the device works, but how to check?
  I've never used this facility before on this pc. Can anyone help?

  I googled for your model type and it has an infrared port for sure.

  Maybe you should remove from Device Manager and then do a restart, so can reinstall windows? That might help, but I Don t know if he would.

  Check if you can find the IrDA device in Device Manager.
  There, you can try to disable the infrared receiver. Maybe it helps.

• Satellite A100 doesn't detect camcorder connected to the firewire port

  Recently, I upgraded my Satellite A100 for XP Pro SP3.
  In order to capture the video from my camcorder Canon I attached the camera to the 1394 port, but the computer does not detect my camera.

  I have changed the cable, restored the software factory default but the presist still problem.
  The camera works fine with another computer, which means that there is some setting or a hardware problem with 1394 port.

  Help, please.

  Hello

  Did you check device manager if the IEEE 1394 (firewire port States) bus host controller has been recognized correctly?
  Are there any yellow exclamation marks?

  Try this workaround:
  -in Device Manager, remove the IEEE 1394 bus host controller
  -restart the laptop
  -Wait that windows reinstalled this controller again
  -Connect the camera and turn it on.
