iPod will work with my Equium L20-197

I have a problem with my wife, Equium L20-197 in XP, when you try to sync with an ipod shuffle (gen2). Will not mount on my computer, is not detected by itunes, but is present in Device Manager but the report he needs a driver to operate properly.

I ran windows update and use the latest version of itunes and everything seems to be up to date. I know that the ipod works correctly because it works fine with my desktop (also XP) computer and also with my mac at work. Can someone please advise on what I have checked for updates and patches and am any other ideas other than buying a different brand of laptop!

Hello

It seems that it is a question of iPod and not question of notebooks;
Please check this discussion iPod in the other forum

I recommend you to unplug the iPod. Then update the Win XP to the State!
You must use Microsoft update page to install really all the patches and fixes. Notes; you have to restart the computer several times to get all patches installed.

Check this solution XP:

In addition, you can see the Intel page for the update of the software of the chipset.

  • Equium L20-197 no longer works

    Can I invite you for a little help on this one.

    I received an Equium L20-197 that no longer works. Not having is not the chance to see never work I'm not sure on a number of things.

    It is totally dead, with the power supply connected there is no sign of life, no power, light nothing.

    I know there are a lot of things it could be.

    This is should it lights up while there is no battery connected, only the power supply plugged in?

    If she will be so at least I can pass a battery problem, yes the battery is perhaps still defective, but this would mean that the motherboard is probably us. If she must have a battery equipped, even a plate, then it could be the battery.

    Just try to work through step-by-step.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Hi mate,

    hehe, looks like a technician is here. :) It s a very good idea to do it step by step because every good techno acts like you. So I do, and it has helped me several times.

    Regarding your question: the battery must not be connected to start the machine, so if the machine start-up even won´t just with connected AC then you can be sure that there is a serious hardware problem.

    In this case, you can remove all (disk, CDROM, etc.) and try again. You can also share the adapter of the ca and the RAM. Thus, if the won´t still machine starts, then contact an ASP (Authorized Service Partner) and ask for a review of health/repair of equipment. It would be the last resort.

    Here´s a link to find the nearest ASP in your country:

    I hope someone can help.

    Hello

    First he must know that the life expectancy of the batteries depends on the use of the laptop.
    Secondly I know this laptop came with a standard battery of 2000mAh.

    This battery should support a longer lifecycle like the 2000mAh battery.

  • Equium L20-197 - wireless connection problems

    Have an old Toshiba laptop Equium L20 - 197, running windows XP Home Edition.

    It contains an Atheros AR5005G wireless network adapter.

    The problem I have is that it will connect to my BT home hub (and says that the connection is excellent), but does not connect to any Web site.

    I added a USB 802.11 wireless adapter g to see if I can get a connection there, and it works very well (even if it is interesting only by using the wireless utility Ralink that comes with it - when I tried with the automatic Windows Wireless Configuration, I had the same problem as before - no internet connection - switched back to the Ralink utility and it works fien again).

    Internal wireless adapter worked fine, but now do not - any suggestion welcome.

    Thank you very much

    Rob

    PS I went to Device Manager and check the updates of pilot, but he told me that he found nothing better than the used version of the driver!

    Hello

    There may be some conflicts between internal WLan card and the new external 802.11 g Wireless USB adapter.

    If not, you should check the configuration of the Atheros AR5005G wireless network adapter.
    In the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab, you can change the WLAN standard 802. 11 (A B G) on the same which is used by the router.

    If the router uses 802.11 G can change this in the Wlan settings too!
    Also check the channel. I put the channel on my router and the wireless network card to 11.

    You can also try to connect to the router without using a WLan encryption. Of course, this should be done only for the test.

    Las, but not the least, update the driver WLan:

  • Equium L20-197 does not burn DVD

    Hello

    I've had my Toshiba Equium L20-197 for more than a year. I have problems with the DVD burner. He is able to play DVDs, burn CDs and play perfectly fine CDs, is not just to burn DVDs. Had this problem for months, I was wondering if anyone knows a solution for it!

    Secondly, a question more than a question. Is it possible to set the "Play/pause" media key to open an alternative application to Windows Media Player? I use Winamp, and it would be nice if I could take a break using this button and I not WMP opens in the process!

    Thank you

    Astiak.

    Hello

    First something about burning your DVDs of problem.
    Have you tried to burn different types of DVDs? I mean if you have tried different brands of DVD?
    I use only the TDK CD and DVD and I am satisfied. But this does not mean that the TDK will work with your hard drive. The fact is that not all readers of support all media.

    In any case, do you have an error message during the burning process? Have you used different burning applications? I only use one program for burning (Nero) and I do not mix the burning software. I noticed that the sonic program installed on the laptop could have a negative influence on the burning process.

    But on the other side, it is possible that disk and that only aid failures.
    Especially the lens of the drive can not calibrate properly and so the CD / DVD cannot be recognized or burned.

    Now the button configuration media;
    Unfortunately, the buttons are configured fix and it is no longer possible to use WMP if audio CD has been inserted or with WinDVD if the DVD has been inserted.

    I hope I could help bye ;)

  • Equium L20-197 to control the Volume

    HI peeps,

    I have a problem with my laptop Equium L20-197 of comrades. When it boots into windows, you get a warning message indicating the canoe access volume control. There is no volume control icon in the taskbar, and I also noticed that in the properties of the sound device and Audio, it says that there is no audio device.

    In the Manager devices, section controller audio, video, and game audio codec, audio drivers, legacy video capture, devices, legacy multimedia control devices and video codecs all say they work properly.

    I tried the fix windows help for no volume control which is to extend the control files of the disk volume to your Windows Setup incase windows, the file is damaged or missing.
    I tried a fresh install of windows.
    None of these helped with the same warning as the result every time.

    It is true that the audio chip on the motherboard is dead or is there maybe another solution to the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in adavance peeps :)

    You said you tried to reinstall fresh Windows operating system.
    So can ask now; have you used the Toshiba Recovery CD or did you use the original MS XP CD?

    I would have preferred using the Toshiba Recovery CD because all the necessary drivers, tools, and utilities are already preinstalled
    You can use the recovery CD to reset the phone to factory settings!
    The configuration should work without any serious problem!

    In my opinion, it's an easy way to set up the laptop. The whole process would take about 10 minutes.

    Are you sure that need the sound driver?
    Maybe some settings are not enabled in the--> sound & audio devices Control Panel
    If you want to get the volume control in the taskbar then you must activate this in sound & audio devices-> Volume tab-> check the option called icon volume space in the taskbar

    However, the audio driver may be downloaded here:

  • Equium L20-197 - what LCD screens are compatible

    Hi all

    I'm trying to help fix a friends laptop which is a Toshiba Equium L20-197.

    The screen got damaged and is the only thing wrong with it.
    I searched for the LCD on the net and so far have not been very successful.

    So I was wondering if anyone here knows other models 15 "LCD Panel that fits without modding or solder?

    Also I noticed that it uses the integrated GFX ATI Express 200 so maybe the laptop take a 32-bit Control Panel using the same cable?

    Thanx.

    To find new LCD Panel replacement is very easy. Use Google and put a few words like LCD L20 and you will find a lot of shops online to where you can order the new replacement screen.

    I don't know where you live and that you are unable to find an online store in your country, but if you have the satellite notebook, I guess you live in the United Kingdom.

  • Equium L20-197 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive

    Hi all

    I recently bought an Equium L20-197 and I thought to install a larger HARD drive.
    I wanted to know what the maximum size of HARD drive that can be installed on an Equium L20-197 (I guess it's 120 GB, as it is on the L20-187 but I'm not 100% sure)

    I have also been seaching for the IDE drives and found a list of sites who have PATA, ATA100 etc. are also the IDE drives? (I checked the wiki and articles all point Yes, but a little more confirmation would not hurt)

    I was also wondering if the HARD drive I install must be brand toshiba (or if it even makes a difference).

    Thanking you in advance for any help you can provide.

    Hello

    Equium L20 is very similar to the Satellite L20.
    Search here in the forum for similar issues. If you want to use the advanced search option, you will find a few useful headings.

    I know, it's that you can use the 40 GB, 60 GB, 80 GB and 100 GB 2.5 IDE HARD drive supporting the UDMA100

  • Can I do my Equium L20 - 197-run faster?

    Hello world

    Can I do my Equium L20 - 197-run faster? I am not very good with pc - then do me in terms simple, lol

    Thanks in advance

    M

    Faster?
    Well, you can try to upgrade the memory on your laptop and you can also try to disable some unnecessary background processes which lose many remedies of CPU and memory.

    But that's all you can do.
    You are unable to spend the CPU or GPU (graphics card) on the laptop. It is not possible.

  • Equium L20-197 does not light up at all - on button / stop flashes and nothing happens

    Hello

    Did you put this phone in the standby or hibernation mode?

    Read this description, it seems that the laptop has been in one of these modes and cannot wake up.
    Try to remove the battery from the laptop and unplug the power adapter.
    Several waiting time (~ 20 min) and reconnect the battery and the AC adapter.
    Then try again to put the laptop.

    If she will not be able to boot up the laptop I presume the ESF on the dysfunctions of the motherboard.
    In this case the contact of technicians would be desirable.

  • InDesign CS5 will work with MacOS Sierra?

    Has anyone tried to see if InDesign CS5 will work with MacOS Sierra? I have creative cloud and CS5 on my machine, but due to some of the things that I have to work that only work with CS5 to CS6 I have to keep my old software. I hesitate to upgrade to Sierra until I know if InDesign CS5 will work or not.

    If anyone has tested this, I would be recognizing the return flow, thank you.

    It really depends what you do with it, and a large part of the framework has changes in the operating system for how the application is designed to run in. Your workflow can cause problems when the application works for others or you might be able to use it, but keep in mind has more no support for CS5 Adobe or Apple, so do not expect to solve any problems that you can discover.

    Thank you

    Carl

    This model was abandoned more than 7 years ago and is officially classified as "obsolete" by Apple, which means that if you have a problem and are willing to pay, Apple still will not help you with this device.

    Most of the 1st Gen Time Capsules failed in about 18 months. Few make it to 36, and very little done to 60 months, so unless the model you are looking at has a new power supply and new hard drive that was installed in recent years, it would be best to stay away from this model.

    If the product has not been updated with a new power supply and hard drive, it's almost a miracle if it does not work.

    Assuming that really fall into place, you will need to check to make sure that the time Capsule has firmware version 7.6.1 or later version to make it work with your Mac using El Capitan.
