• Satellite E100-004 - can I disable media buttons as mute, play pause

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite E100-004.
  is there a way disable the multimedia button panel (Media buttons on top of keyboard - mute-media-play/pause-stop-rewind-forward-)?

  thanx

  Hello

  Please don't be crazy on my but I don't understand your question. These buttons are by default configured to run with pre-installed Windows media player. If you don't like them you just simply do not touch them.
  I know that you can change the browser settings and the multimedia key and define which application should be open with these buttons.

  In any case such option is unknown to me.
  Why you want to disable these buttons?

• Satellite P305-S8832 - media buttons do not work with Win7

  Hello friends, wise

  I recently installed two new hard drives (500 GB 7200 RPM OS / 500 GB 5400 RPM DATA) and I did a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit on my 3 1/2 Toshiba Satellite P305-S8832. Everything except the media buttons works well enough.

  I downloaded the drivers from the Toshiba repository, including the installer of the Software for Windows 7 Toshiba and package valued Toshiba. These touch buttons above the keyboard and between the speakers still doesn't work, no light, no response, nothing. I checked the bios.

  These buttons work out of the box with Ubuntu Linux, Windows XP and Windows Vista.

  Any advice?

  Hello

  In General, the multimedia keys are controlled by VAP (value added package) and the buttons should work after the installation of VAP.

  Found the drivers here:
  [Satellite P305-S8832 drivers: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=2059997& rpn = PSPC0U & modelFilter = P305-S8832 & SelCategorie = 2756709 & selFamily = # 1073768663]

  It seems that there is also a newer version of VAP.
  Check other new series Sat P in order to get the latest version of VAP.
  Also install the hardware installation. This tool allows you to customize your hardware parameters

• Satellite A500-1EE (PSAR9E) media buttons are not lit in Fendora

  I installed Fedora 16 on my Toshiba Satellite A500-1EE, part number PSAR9E, in replacement of Windows 7. Most of the stuff works very well, fortunately, except that the media buttons (play/pause, volume up/down, etc.) are not enlightened. It's frustrating because I often work in low light and simply can not see the button, which forces me to turn on the light every time I want to change the volume or move to the next song in my MP3 player.

  The highlight was done with Windows 7 (running after starting Windows, but was extinguished during the boot process), so he's certainly not broken.

  I tried with 16-32 & 64 bit Fedora and dreamlike Ubuntu 32 bit and I can't seem to find a way to turn on the light of media buttons, leading me to suspect is a Linux question nationally.

  Is there a setting, tool or any other solution that would allow me to have my media buttons light on?

  As you probably know for this lighting feature Toshiba designed little tool, this piece of software is designed for the Windows operating system only.
  I also know that Toshiba doesn't support Linux, so there is none of these tools which runs on the Linux platform.

  Have you tried to check some Linux forums and pick up the experiences of other experts in Linux.

  Hello

  For these special buttons, you must install the tools of Toshiba. Did you check that?

• Satellite M645-6114 - ECO utility/media buttons not working not

  My toshiba satellite M645-6114 is about a month.
  Yesterday, I realized that the media buttons is no longer give me a symbol on the screen when I disable or turn off the wifi.

  In addition, the place of the arrow button no longer turns the lights on the laptop.
  Finally I can't open the eco utility at all.

  Thanks in advance for any advice.

  Hello
  The media keys (play, pause, eco button) are controlled by VAP (value added package). In addition to use the ECO button, the ECO utility must be installed.

  In addition the FN keys are controlled by Flash Card Utility Support and this tool seems not work so first check if you can solve this activation/restart tool, you can do it in all programs-> Toshiba-> Flash Cards

  If this does not work, reinstall the mentioned tools Note: after each installation, reboot the device!

• Media buttons do not work in Satellite P300-21st using Win 7

  Hello

  After the turning off my laptop, last week, the buttons of media suddenly stopped working.
  The strange thing is that they are flashing all the time, even when the laptop is turned off.

  I downloaded the toshiba Web site VAP (although the version was a 2009 one, if there is a new one for my laptop please let me know. Maybe I can use a VAP, a similar model.
  My system is Windows 7

  the other weird thing is that I have disabled the option of the illumination of the F2 Setup but the media buttons are still on.

  I also tried taking the battery, etc., but nothing

  any ideas?

  Hello

  The VAP is a Toshiba Software and as far as I know, you can use the other version of VAP, which was released for other series of laptop.
  For example, you can use the VAP released for Satellite P500, P750 series or higher.

  But I m wondering why the s button led is always ON even though the lighting is disabled in the BIOS.

  > I also tried taking the battery, etc., but nothing
  It is also my idea unplug the power adapter, remove the battery, hold down power button / stop along 30 sec.
  Then connect the AC adapter and check the functionality of the multimedia buttons.

• Launch Manager/media button Driver Windows 8

  Hello

  I have an Acer Aspire 5742. I recently reinstalled my Windows 8 (64 bit) OS and I need to reinstall all my drivers. I have trouble finding the driver for my fn keyboard media buttons. In the past, I think the driver for this was called the "Acer Launch Manager" driver, but I can't find a similar driver for Windows 8. Any help direct me to a driver of job (for an earlier version of Windows maybe?) would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Mati,

  Thanks again for helping out. I went into the BIOS and that has not worked, so I instaled Windows 7 Launch Manager driver and who seemed to have done the trick. Not sure why the driver of Windows 8 was not functional, but fixed now.

• Disable the button Wireless Laser Mouse PA3706E Alt + Tab?

  I have what I think, it's a mouse Toshiba PA3706E (it's the one in the picture below)

  It has a small button of Alt + Tab at the worst place in the fact that it could be, and I was wondering if anyone knows a way to disable? I installed the thing that comes with it to change the functions of the buttons, but for some reason, it is the only button you cannot not change or not. The only option for the Application Switch button is Alt + Tab.

  Anyone? It's makes me absolutely crazy and things like TF2 happens to crash when it Alt + tabs; -

  > Is it possible to disable it, as pilot/configure CD software that comes with the mouse wont allow it.
  Well, if the software that came with the mouse, does not support this option, then I put t see any other possibility to disable the button ALT + TAB.

• Can satellite A505 - I configure media buttons?

  Hi all:

  I have a question: is it possible to configure multimedia LED buttons "Play/Pause", "RW" and "FF" of my Satellite A505-S6965 to run a program?

  I know it's possible to do it with the 'eco', the buttons "mute" using the program "Support of Toshiba Button" and the "quick start", but this program offers no option to configure the three buttons that I mentioned above.

  If someone could help, I appreciate it very much, because I don't know where else research...

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey Buddy,

  You're already good. You can only configure the media buttons that you can find in the list of Toshiba button support.

  But for game, RW, FF, etc keys it of not possible to configure them. You can use them in Windows Media Player for example. That s as comfortable! :)
