Re: Satellite 350 - power plug loosens

Hi, I've had my 350 Satellite for over a year now and it has been already to toshiba for repair twice for the same reason the power plug loosens and once fall completely inside the machine.

These repairs were covered by the warranty but now that my laptop is more than a year, it has run out of warranty, but this problem with the jack happened once again if you think toshiba will except responsibility as it should be a lack of design etc.?

Hello

I think you should contact them (SAV) and ask them what to do.

Welcome them

    Hello Teresah

    I wonder really after that 10 months you did nothing to solve this power plug the question.
    Why don't you contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider? I guess that laptop has guaranteed valid and these issues can be fixed for free.

    Be careful with this stuff power and contact the service as soon as possible. I don't know where you live but the complete list of all authorized Toshiba service providers you can find on the Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > download & support > find an ASP.

    I am also owners A300 and use my laptop about a year now. I use my laptop every day for my work and it runs more than 8 hours a day. So far, I did not notice any hardware or software problem. I ve defined the parameters of power management the balanced diet combined with the minimum level set in the cooling method option.

  • Satellite A100-496 power plug problem

    Hi, my first post and this is probably a common problem.

    I got an A100-496 for about two years and it has been fine. Nothing special, just right.

    Although the pin power plug to the back of the machine became loose and therefore constantly moving the battery and possibly perform.

    I found any number of sockets of replacement for other models, but this seems rare.
    Can someone advise
    one) where I could get one at a reasonable price
    (b) if there are other models that use exactly this Jack
    (c) how it could be difficult to replace or
    (d) the question of whether I should just go out and buy a new machine (certainly not a Toshiba)?

    I would be very grateful for any advice and thank you in advance.

    Hello

    I think that the replacement of DC Jack is really complicated because it s placed on the motherboard and you will need to disassemble the whole laptop to gain access to decision-making.
    The disassembly procedure is not easy, that you know the right order and how to remove devices
    There is therefore a high risk of damage to laptop

    Anyway, you want to know what is compatible.
    Well, I recommend contacting the ASP in your country for details and the right part, the technicians should be abele to order this part at Toshiba.

  • How to unlock a user on Satellite 350 portable D?

    I have Satellite 350 portable D. Is no longer one of the 2 users can access the internet. A message appears the permission for the 3rd party modifications. This message will not go away by answering 'No' or by clicking on the 'x' in the upper right. The user can proceed to any other.

    I'm very non technical, and this problem is causing a lot of frustration. I would appreciate any advice.

    What happens if you click Yes?

    Often, if you have users one can have administrator privileges and the other is a basic user (who doesn't have administrator privileges). Administrator privileges allow you to make changes to the system, such as installing software, changing the settings system etc. If I run a program when I'm on my regular user (such as when connecting to the internet) and it wants to install something we could ask me to type my password for my administrator user. Once I did that once he made the change and it will not have to do the next time.

    Check the settings for each user to see what kind of user, they are (in windows, you must select start-> Control Panel-> users or accounts or something like that version).

    You could give them either all administrator rights (generally a bad idea because they could randomly becomes the computer you do not want), or preference to connect as an administrator when they see the message, do everything that should make and then submit to their user. Once you have changed what the system needs him should not ask again.

    Who help me?

  • Power plug Tecra S2

    I have a Tecra S2. I recognized that the power plug of the machine, which is on the back side of the housing is not tight, but kind of coward. The connector fits very well but when you fix it the plug connector gives way (approx. 1 mm).
    Is there someone with a device of the tecra series that can check whether it s the same thing with his computer?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    I had the same notebook and I m very pleased with this unit.
    I tested this socket at the back of the laptop but I can't see if it something wrong with this part.
    Nevertheless, I wonder that this kind of trifles is very important for you.
    I think it s not a big malfunction or fault but if it is important to you then you can contact your dealer or service partner.

    Best regards

  • Sometimes when I shut down Windows XP - SP3 it just hangs until I pull the power plug.

    When I Shutdown Windows XP - SP3 (w/latest updates) it freezes just until I pull the power plug. I had this problem for some time. Before even the latest updates. This could be the cause of this problem?

    It happened after doing many different things, so I don't think that a particular program might be causing the problem.

    I reinstalled Windows at least twice this year so far and I'm not interested in doing it again.

    I imagine stopping by pulling out the plug could cause problems for Windows in the future.

    TKOP,

    Your problem may be hardware related or associated software. I have seen this with Mcafee installed on workstations and eventually found that memory has caused the problem.
    The simplest and the least expensive would be to replace the memory modules and uninstall Mcafee. (you can google must uninstall mcafee to obtain an uninstall program) If this does not help, check the operation of the fans on the unit. If they don't keep the processor cool laptop, they must be replaced. You may be able to check the time of fan in the bios.
    You can also check the Windows event log to see if there is any information to software problems.
    Worst cases would be the power supply or the motherboard are the cause of the problem, you could get a diagnostic software from the manufacturer of your computer to check maybe it.

    Or run it to test your memory on your computer.

  • L855 satellite must be plugged into a time of power

    Laptop: Toshiba Satellite L855.

    Hello

    I had a power supply problem and I describe below.

    It all started in a morning, laptop has not powered, so I plugged it in to the power source, necessary to wait 30 minutes for the power button to work, the next morning same thing happened. Tried removing the battery, same problem appear.

    If the stop of the GET of the laptop then turn on it works, the problem occurs when it is shut down for a period of time.
    I left a night the laptop plugged in, it started normally, seems that there is something that has become warmer so pc can start.

    Can someone tell me what this 'something' may be? It can be replaced? What is the real problem?

    It is not easy to offer a good explanation why this happens. Fact is that work well electronic power is responsible for power supply for laptop s.
    I can't tell if something must be more hot or not, but this case should be checked and reviewed by Toshiba service provider.

    Believe me, in this case there not much you can do about it. You can just do a few tests, but no more than that. I highly recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba service provider in your country and ask for help.
    Let the technicians to control your machine.

    Out of curiosity: is the warranty still valid?

  • Need power plug for Satellite Pro A100

    Recently, I have lost the plug for my laptop and have looked everywhere but can't seem to find them so I was wondering if someone could help.
    I still have the box that plugs into the back of my laptop but I need real 3-pin plug that plugs into the wall.
    I don't know very much about computers so not quite sure which is the correct name for it but I tried Kettle plugs and they are a different form of the AC/DC adapter that I have.

    Hi mate,

    I know what the hell you mean, it s taking new adapters with the additional grounding of the wall adapter. These cards can be purchased by each service partner, I think Don t they cost a lot, so feel free to click on the link below and contact the nearest service partner in your country, because they will sell you a new:

  • Satellite L500D-11R - plugged in but not charging

    Hello

    I had a Satellite L500D-11R windows 7 - its fine loads (light orange deep) when it is off, but when running, it will be reduced to an orange flashing light and will not load.

    in the taskbar windows says its plugged in but not charging - unplugging and plugging back in cures repeatedly sometimes the problem

    Ive updated the BIOS to V1.50, but it still happens

    the ideas people?

    Remove the battery and start your laptop with AC power only. When windows is fully loaded, put the battery in place.

    What happen exactly when you do this?

  • Satellite L20 - power of habit

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L20. It had not been used for a while and the battery was completely dead. I plugged the sound off the L20 to my amp via amini taken for stereo connector. When I turned on the laptop started upward, but there was a bad sound interference from the amp. He stayed down for about 30 seconds, and then the laptop turns off completely. Since then I could not start it. When I plug in the power adapter no power light on the L20. However, the adapter has been tested and it is quite good.

    I think that may be the motherboard was fried somehow, because, even if the battery is completely dead, should not the laptop always power up via the adapter?

    Is there anyway that the motherboard can be "reset" or something?

    Thanks for any help,

    Dave

    Ugh, that sounds like another machine was ascended to heaven...

    Usually the machine must turn on even when no battey was inserted. So, if your light powerlights donĀ“t after connecting your power adapter that should work (as you said, but I'm skeptical), then your motherboard is faulty.

    You can try another adapter or another poweroutlet in your home. Maybe just a problem simple it s.

    does anyone have the PIN diagram of battery to test

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a battery would be defective.
    You are able to use the laptop only with the power adapter plugged?
    If so, this would mean that the adapter is OK.
    Is that battery begins to lose own performance after his indictment for 400 - 500 times. I would recommend so test the laptop using new, good battery under test.

  • Satellite A50 power on problem

    I have a satellite A50 produced in 2004. I was getting messages flashing up on top of the problems of critical battery despite being connected. Finally the computer lost all power. Now it is quite dead, and I can't make it work on the power supply. I removed the battery and plugged, but still have no power. There is no light on any name that is not in hibernation. It seems that some internal fuse needs to be replaced, or something that prevented completely from the power of work. I have changed the fuse in the plug and tried the power outlets alternative. Any ideas?

    Hello

    Maybe there is a problem with the electronic power supply.
    In this case, the motherboard should be replaced.
    But you should ask Toshiba service to find the fault.
