Just bought Satellite C660 and need some information please
I just bought a Toshiba Satellite C660 1 t 1 and have some important questions, I would like to meet you please. I have looked for answers, but could find nothing specific.
The first question I have is that when I turned on my new laptop and installed Windows 7, I noticed he had partitioned my hard drive to 500 GB in two for a 232 GB C: Windows and a 232 GB data D:
I was wondering if there was a setting that I had missed during my first installation of Windows 7 where I could change the size of the partition? As on a previous Samsung Netbook, I could choose how much space I wanted to a backup disk, but does not remember seeing a similar option on the Toshiba startup options? If someone could confirm it please that you can't change the size of the partition to installation of commissioning, it would be a relief, because I am worried, it was my fault the score is so great.
The second I have is that when the driver updates are released to update my driver graphics and any other material, which is the best piece of software Toshiba I should use to find and update the material? As there seems to be a lot of them pre-installed and they seem to all updated software?
The third question is: are there specific pieces of software toshiba which should start up when I start my PC? As I will try to stop programs unimportant all begin when starting my new laptop until reduced startup time.
Finally (sorry for so many questions) someone could explain to me why its so important to create a "recovery disc" and why it seems that I must do this as soon as possible? I'm really not at all, or the importance to create one as soon as you get your new laptop.
Thank you very much for all the help that I tried to find answers to these questions and noticed that everyone on these forums seems to be very competent and friendly :)
Aaron Hello and welcome to Toshiba support forum
At first, I must say that you are doing very good. It is best to ask first before you start to experiment and screw something up. A lot of people changing all implement and later wonder why some software stuff don t work anymore.
I have a little experience with Toshiba and will try to help you. So let's go.
> I was wondering if there was a setting that I had missed during my first installation of Windows 7 where I could change the size of the partition?
When you start a laptop for the first time be preinstalled recovery image will install and you will have a laptop with factory settings. This HARD drive partitions are standard. After the first start the most important is to create recovery DVDs. After having done that, you can do with your computer laptop all you want. You can delete the partitions. Change the ability scores, install OS clean, but you will be able to install the original Toshiba recovery image using this disc. It is very important.
Of course, you can install os using HDD Recovery mode - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
In general, you can change the structure of the partitions but it may happen that there will be problems to start HARD drive recovery after doing this, but if you create recovery DVDs there is no problem for you.
> The second I have, is that when the driver updates...
In General, you should not install updates, especially not for Toshiba tools and utilities. My advice to you is: don change well equipped with operating system. What can you possibly update is display driver, but please use driver Toshiba only.
> are there specific pieces of software Toshiba which should start up when I start my PC?
Much preinstalled stuff slow startup and notebooks in general performance. So that you can disable some startup applications (MSCONFIG > startup) or even to remove them from the system. For example, you can remove Tempro, information tool product Toshiba, remove an application preinstalled antivirus and install something better like Avira Antivir. At startup, you can turn off the zooming utility, application, Adobe Reader, Google update, check laptop Toshiba webcam and so on. I turn off even more things and leave just more important tools.
> could someone explain to me why its so important to create a "recovery disc" and why it seems that I must do this as soon as possible?
I hope that I have answered this already, but here is the content of the Toshiba Recovery callback:
* Important INFORMATION *.
* your system is equipped with a hard drive recovery system. If you need to repair your computer in the restaurant to the original factory condition, you can do it directly on the hard disk (press F8 when you start your computer, choose "Repair your computer" and follow the instructions in the menu) or create a bootable recovery for this fin.* drive carrier
* Toshiba recommends you create recovery disk medium using the "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator' to ensure that you are able to restore your computer to the original state that is installed at the factory, even if your computer is severely damaged.*
If you have any other questions you are welcome.

Satellite A100-237: need some information and details
All,
While seeking to buy a new laptop, I was offered the Satellite A100-237. This laptop is T2400 / 80GB / 512MB with screen 15.4 "and ATI x 1600 video.
I searched in the Toshiba Europe website but could not find any trace for this model. Only when I googled I found that this model is sold in South Africa.
My questions are:
-What is the similar model sold in Europe?
-Is this model a new or will be interrupted?
-Is this compatible Vista model?
-Is this compatible Merom (Core 2 duo) model? I know that other manufacturers offer instructions and BIOS update to upgrade Yonah for Merom.
I couldn't find this information on the Toshiba web site.Your help is very appreciated.
This model is also sold in Europe (or at least in the South-Eastern and Central Europe).
It's a new model - April or in May 2006, I think.
He has a capable 'Vista' sticker on this subject, so I guess he can run Vista.
In principle the Intel 945 chipset can support the Core 2 Duo with a simple update of the BIOS. The question is whether the laptop manufacturers that will provide a new BIOS.The build quality is very good, the only weak point in my opinion is that it comes with only 512MB. 1 GB of RAM would have been a much better companion for the T2400 and X 1600.

I just bought a SX50HS and continue to use a SX130IS bought in 2011.
I just bought a SX50HS and continue to use a SX130IS bought in 2011. I have a 2.3 GHz Core 2 under Win XP SP3 machine. This goes to my videos in 1280 x 720 SX130 without insisting on the CPU at all. Now they say I need at least 2.6 GHz to run videos of the new camera. If I install the new software it will work also with my huge steps. the SX130 photos and videos? What will happen? I spent $$ on a new camera and do not want to use my laptop more quick which has a tiny screen for the new camera. The SX130 2010 software has no problem showing all the file types that do not come with his camera. If I only produce 1280 x 720 size it will be OK?
You reply to the message from Canon:
Looking at the previous post of Canon, I understand what he says, but some people in this forum say that they prefer ZoomBrowser ImageBrowser. My problem is in my SX130IS's CameraWindow and ZoomBrowser doesn't whence jpg files (it displays the images of the phone of my daughter, brother-in-law camera, etc.) and I don't think I want something different. If I install the new CameraWindow alone or with PLR is an option? Basically, I use my desktop computer for critical tasks related to my work and personal research and development and still tend to avoid changing anything. If I try the new software, it would be on my laptop which does contain nothing critical. Then at some point soon I need to migrate the Office XP to Windows 7 (radical)! In the meantime, I can remove the memory card from my SX50HS and ZoomBrowser bed in his usual way, which is like CameraWindow.

I just bought Photoshop 14 and she asked my serial no, but there is no 24 numbers
I just bought Photoshop 14 and she asked my serial No. However, he also says that the serial number has 24 numbers and no letters. Mine is # & letters for a total of 19, so you have a redemption code. But when I get to the page that asks you a redemption code there more than 19 spaces that need to be filled before it will allow me to move forward. It keeps sending me around in circles and it gets frustrating. How do I get this thing written, so I can use it?
This redemption code help page says
19 character code? If your card has a 19-digit code, you can have a product code for a student and teacher edition. See serial numbers , redemption codes and product codes. Schoolgirl and her teacher editions.
Try student and teacher link and see if it offers the right measures.

I am a registered owner of Lightroom 6 but my old computer (PC) is dead and is seemingly irreparable... I just bought a MacPro and would like to know if it is possible to download the Mac version 6 on it without having to pay for another license.
Hi Charlay,
Yes, you can download Lightroom on your Mac computer from this link: Install Photoshop Lightroom
And you can then activate Adobe programs on two machines, you will be able to activate it without having to buy it again.
Kind regards
