Power light is on when the Satellite U400/T5800 is off - is this normal?

We have a Satellite U400 T5800/new, just bought yesterday and have completed the configuration of the software.
Everything seems to work very well.

However, I noticed that the orange power LED is turned on (solid, and not not not flashing), even when the laptop is off and there is no connected AC.
I couldn't find an explanation in the manuals or online. This behavior is normal?

Normally, I would expect a laptop can be completely powered down - is it normal for the LED light to be even on (continuously when laptop is turned off).

When the laptop is turned on, the light turns white as expected.

Thank you

Hello

I have a Satellite U400 too and if I close my laptop and unplug the AC adaptor all lights are off.
Are you sure you did stop your laptop and not hibernate or stand-by? Check it!

You can try to update the BIOS. Check the Toshiba site for an update.

  • Overnight battery discharged when the satellite has been turned off

    Hello

    This has happened again. My battery empties 25% from one day to the next and will be completely discharged in a week. The machine is not in hibernation, it is completely shut down. If I charge the battery and remove it from the machine it does not lose cool, which indicates a draining of the laptop. Any ideas?

    Hello

    Maybe this will help you a bit:

    I found this useful Toshiba paper on this topic:

    Battery drains 15-20% when it is turned off during the night
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB6B01N50013R01.htm

    This can happen if the wake on the service LAN (WOL) by the built-in LAN module is turned on

    Please check!

    -----------------------
    By the way; the loss of 2 to 4% of the power of the battery during the night is a normal state.

  • DeskJet 932C - the power light is on and the cartridge flashing

    Hello! I know my DeskJet 932C is 'old', but it seems to be in excellent condition.  First time that I had a problem.  The power light is on and the cartridge is flashing.  When I open the cover, the plateau of the cartridge moves to the far left.  The arrow points to the unfortunate color cartridge.  The missed years ago color cartridge.  I use my printer to print B & W, so I've been printing with the empty cartridge in place for years.

    I removed a reinserted the color and B & W cartridges and turn on the power and turns off.  I used the HP print and scan doctor, and it's scan does not have something wrong, I clicked on print a test page, and nothing happens.  The test page is listed as 1 document in the queue.   Status: error - printing.

    The printer has been in its current position on my desk for years.  It was not known of any trauma... None does damage... no power failure.  It's clean.  Has been connected to 4 laptops and uninterrupted service.

    I prefer not to buy a new color cartridge.

    Would appreciate help.  I would like to know what it means and if there is a solution.

    Thank you!

    The printer will perform electrical cartridges to light control and a few other times.  If an error printing can be blocked to avoid damaging the printer.  Clean the contacts of the cartridge as shown in the document here can solve the problem, otherwise you will probably need to replace the color cartridge.  The 932 Deskjet will allow printing with an empty cartridge, but for years, the cartridge may fail electrically and needs to be replaced.

  • When the Satellite A500 comes out in Europe?

    Hello world

    I wanted to know if anyone knew when the Satellite A500 will be released in Europe (including France) because I was going to buy the A300D-219 ([http://www.cdiscount.com/informatique/ordinateurs-pc-portables/toshiba-satellite-a300d-219/f-107092212-PSAHCE01U00LFR.html?search=toshiba&trilist=0&numpa ge = 1])

    But if the A500 comes out in 1 month is perhaps not worth, I need it for my studies, so for September...

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I read somewhere on some pages that the Satellite A500 is to be released in July 09.
    Then maybe you might be able to order end of July or beginning of August

    But I recommend you to contact your local dealer for details

  • Is it possible to have windows to automatically select a spare printer by default when the selected default printer is off line?

    I use a laptop and move between two locations each with its own printer.  Whenever I move, I have to change the default printer by opening printers & faxes from the control panel.  Is it possible to have windows to automatically select a spare printer by default when the selected default printer is off line?

    Hi Tom,

    If the default printer is not in offline mode, it will detect the different printer but it will not be a default one.

    Hello

    My Hp Pavilion laptop 2244sa g6 does not come with the product key for windows8. Is this normal? I can't see it anywhere, should I worry?

    Some laptops, like my Envy 17-3002ea loan, have the certificate of authenticity Windows hidden in the compartment where the hard drive and the battery are.  First try.

    Other portable latest and which may include yours, have the Windows license key encrypted in the BIOS.  There is a thread on the Microsoft communities that verifies that. The thread is worth reading.

  • Command buttons and lights not working not properly - Satellite U400

    I am currently facing a problem with my Satellite U400, which runs under Windows Vista / Bios v3.00.
    First, the control buttons no longer work, as when I press on them, nothing more. It was that when you press on, the LED lights for a while and then come back to life.

    Now, LEDS are constantly lit. Even when the laptop is turned off and the cable is removed.

    So far, I tried to turn on and turn off the LED option in the Bios (that is turned on and off the LED on the touchpad and the logo of Satellite, but not on the control buttons). I uninstalled and reinstalled the Value Pack from recovery CD - no change. I deleted and reinstalled the Windows called devices: ACPI fixed feature button (thought this might help).

    Is there anything else I could do?

    Once the problem is resolved, I wonder if the command buttons can be customized. For some reason I do not seem to find the appropriate program to set those.

    Thanks for any input.

    Hello

    Someone suggested this work around:
    You must install the utility to control on the one hand, and where to install the value Pack, choose Advanced Options and uncheck the Support Button TOSHIBA.

  • Battery light is steady amber the Satellite

    Hi all

    I recently had to change my laptop power adapter because it has stopped working. I was able to control the volume of the percentage out of her, and it was almost 0.

    However when I plug the new adapter/charger and turn on the laptop, it keeps permanently turned off as it loads Windows applications. I tried to put on with the battery disconnected, but it flashes the light output for fractions of a second and it remains off.

    The status of lights when the connection from the laptop to the power supply are:
    -Power led: FLASHING WHITE
    -Battery light: AMBER CONSTANT

    Any help with this will be appreciated.

    Kind regards

    If the battery can be fully charged, the indicator should turn green or blue.

  • Express Media Player starts automatically when the Satellite M45 is disabled

    After two years of trouble without using my Satellite M45 from acting weird.

    Occasionally, when it is turned off or in hibernation the Express Media Player will begin; This can occur immediately after hibernation or in the middle of the night even if it is passed by closing down.

    No disc is in the drive and it's right there waiting for a disc to be inserted. It may not even start with the Detective Conan.

    Sometimes, often, and I have to unplug the power and remove the battery in order to get some sleep. Is there a simple solution or there at - there a way to uninstall the Express Media Player?

    Hello

    Throughout history, there is a confusing thing. Express Media Player starts when the OS is shutdown properly. This means that the Express media player cannot start after the hibernation mode. This player is not part of the operating system and runs separately.

    Because of this, it will be interesting to know which application starts. East - Media Express Player or Windows Media Player?

    In any case, I believe that each of them can be started after pressing media placed next to the switch buttons. There may be a problem with it.

  • Should I unplug the AC adapter when the Satellite L305 has been stopped

    Should I do this or not?

    When I stop my L305 laptop I unplug the power cord of the AC adapter. Or should I just let my laptop plugged in all the time.

    In General, you can do what you want. After finishing my work, I unplug the power from my laptop but not remove AC adapter / CC of portable but rather unplug the power to the electrical outlet.

  • Shaking image on the external monitor when the Satellite A200 is running on AC

    Hello

    I have this problem that drives me crazy... I bought an external monitor for my laptop Toshiba Satellite A200-1 9 s, but the problem is that the image on the external monitor, shakes. I tried another monitor, the same, another cable, same problem; the only way to stop it is to unplug the AC of the laptop.

    I also tried to move the monitor further away from the laptop, but nothing.
    I can stop shaking so hard that if I switch to the profile AC from FULL POWER to save power... but even with this image is still shaking a little.

    So basically there is a magnetic field around here, probably in the portable, which makes my picture shaking like crazy... someone knows how to stop it?
    TX

    Hello

    Hmmm...
    I don't think it has to do something with magnetic fields.

    Cause she is related to the energy consumption of the computer, it seems that there is a problem with the AC adapter.
    If he needs to deliver all the 'juice', this is capacitors to keep absolutely stable voltage may be too low.
    These instabilities (with the frequency of 50 Hz supply) can parasitize the signal on the screen.

    A solution for this?... If you know how to solder some fat capacitors somehow between the two...

    Or:
    It is a grounding problem
    I have never heard of such problems with the LCD (VGA monitors?) monitors. Generally, this is the case when you use an analog video output,
    leading to no color on TV.
    You have an annoying hum when you connect the audio output to an amplifier? It would be a sign for it.
    I had such a problem and solved by plugging my laptop on the sector on another circuit in the House as my audio devices
    So experiment with it.
    First: unplug all the other stuff (printer, Poles, antennas, all) these are unpleasant problems with a lot of possible interference.

    Let me know!

  • Screen turns off when the Satellite A45-S250 is moved in the direction of less

    Hello.

    I have a satellite A45-S250. I had no previous problem with this machine. However, when the computer is running too long, or it is moved in the slightest way the screen turns off. I don't even have to type very slowly - or I lose the screen.

    But also, as I have said - sometimes I won't even be near the computer and the screen turns off. When I lose the screen if the light shines on it - I can see, it's always VERY fair Sun. Generally, it will come if I use the FN + F5 button.

    I don't know if it is a screen problem or a connection problem. It occurs with increased frequency. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thank you

  • The battery will be discharged when my Satellite L670 is turned off and unplugged

    I have the Satellite L670-1john 3 months.

    the battery will discharge when the PC is turned off and unplugged.

    How to solve the problem?

    > the battery will discharge when the PC is turned off and unplugged.
    How to understand this?
    Does it means 24 hours battery is completely discharged or what?

    Battery loses power when the laptop is turned OFF and unplugged and there is nothing unusual.
    Enter the BIOS settings and disable Wake up on LAN.

    After doing this watch carefully what will happen and let us know if the battery will discharge both than before.
