Re: Webcam disabled on Satellite A350

I'm having a problem with my webcam on Toshiba Satellite A350, Win7 Professional 32-bit. The webcam no longer works. Camera software allow me to open camera - keeps saying "Webcam is either disabled or has failed.» Please check your webcam settings '.

Camera is not listed in the Device Manager to an unknown device.
I used to use the camera without problems (rarely, but), and found out that now it doesn't work anymore.

Any ideas?

It is not easy to say what the problem is here.
You don t all that may be responsible for this problem?

What you can try is first to roll back the OS to an earlier time just to see if something will change.
Otherwise, try to reinstall the webcam software. You can download it on the Toshiba support page.

    I tested the functionality of MSN with my Satellite A300. Software of FAO assist is to my laptop always OFF and cam works well with MSN. To be honest I have problems with ICQ only. Skype and MSN works fine.

    If it please enter together Audio and video settings and check if the cam is working there.

    Hello

    The chicony webcam does not work on my toshiba Satellite A350-12j and windows 7 64 bit...

    I always get different errors as
    "graphics make it fail."
    "the device is locked by another program.
    etc...

    I tried many things and watch them on a lot of messages, but nothing does. I installed a lot of drivers and programs to solve, but nothing works.
    at first the camera was ok but now nothing seems to help and the camera is broken...

    Can you help me??

    Thank you!

    > seen as 1 million messages like mine and not even 1 right answer on how to solve it!
    I guess you didn't read all these messages correctly

    The user Symbian wrote that her webcam works fine! He used the software/driver for the Toshiba page as well

    Since the Skype reports an unknown error too, I guess that this whole thing has noting to do with the webcam software, but with your Windows 7 installed!

    Seems a registry keys, files or all what it might be, are confused upward!
    In your case, I would try a new installation! Install Win 7 and the Toshiba drivers/software.
    Then test the webcam.

    Don t install any 3rd party software before you would test the webcam!

  • Satellite A350 - plastik cover at the edge of the webcam to remove?

    Video of the webcam integrated my new A350 Satellite is - even in good light conditions - very blurry, the integrated microfon tune is - even regulated to max - very low.

    In front of the webcam, there's a blanket of plastik (written Web camera).
    At this cover to remove for better/original video?

    If so, how to do? I tried gently, but do not want to damage anything.

    THX in advance
    Rainer

    > In front of the webcam, there is a plastic (webcam wrote about it).
    > At this cover to remove for better/original video?

    No! This plastic cover cannot be deleted. He fixed s!
    I have a U400 and I've got the same guy with the same coverage you cannot delete it certainly!

    If your webcam image is too fuzzy so I would recommend activation of the night mode in the properties of the webcam!
    In the audio settings of the webcam properties you can increase the volume (volume mic) in order to obtain better sound quality.

  • Satellite A350 - webcam is of poor quality

    Integrated webcam quality is poor (a350)
    Is this normal for this computer?
    Switches only light black screen shown in the night on Skype and is even worse.

    Hello

    The picture quality could not be better because of the darkroom where you use the webcam.
    You should increase the brightness in the room and need to set the parameters of the webcam in night mode!

    See this Toshiba document:

  • Built-in microphone for Satellite A350 / 07 h pick up static

    Hi all

    Enough in computer science when it comes to the day-to-day management of a computer, but I'm having big problems with my microphone on my model satellite A350 / 0 H.

    Whenever I try to talk to anyone using Msn, all they can hear is static and a small amount of my voice. I currently the amp microphone 0dbs and it helped a little, but is there anything else I can change levels of?

    I have windows vista 32 bit and really dnt want to buy an external mic!

    Recorded playback of my voice is fundamentally static as well!

    Hello

    To be honest I have never had a problem with the microphone yet so I can't say much on the subject, but in your case I would start with driver updates...
    You need to update the driver for the webcam because the microphone is a part of it and the audio driver. Both can be downloaded here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/ > support & downloads > download drivers

    If it doesn't work you should also update your BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba site too.

    By the way: the Vista version are you using, is it preinstalled Toshiba or did you do your own installation?

  • Wireless not working do not with my new Satellite A350-20 s

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite A350-20s last weekend. Everything else seems good but I am struggling to connect wirelessly. It has Vista Home Premium.

    I have a Thompson TG585 v7 wireless router. My Lenovo T61 (WinXP SP2) can connect wirelessly with no problems however.

    When I am connected to the router via ethernet cable my Toshiba will connect to the internet fine. And when I'm sitting right next to my wireless router my Toshiba can connect wireless fine. But by the time I stray a little (even just 5 meteres!), it loses the connection.

    I didn't put a single software on my laptop, but since I bought it.

    It's very frustrating and any help would be really appreciated.

    Thank you
    Frédérique

    Hello

    Have you tried to update the driver WLAN and the BIOS? The two might increase the WLAN functionality, and in this case it should be updated. Simply visit the Web from Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    I guess you're Windows Vista so you should Devil WLAN energy saving function. This can affect the WLAN functionality and so it should be disabled. You can find it on the Vista power management.

    I hope this can solve your problem! :)

  • Satellite A350 - Touchpad does not work, but an external mouse works

    Satellite A350 Touchpad does not work ok (unstable system and left button not loaded).

    I tried to make the driver but nothing. No problem drivers (conf system). I have the driver for the touchpad stroped and with an external mouse everything is working properly.

    What should I do? Don't you think it's hard or soft the problem. * The touchpad is NEVER worked.*

    Thank you, and sorry for my bad English. :-(

    Hello!

    The touchpad does appear in Device Manager or you have here yellow exclamation points?

    Like Akuma says you can enable or disable the touchpad with FN + F9 key combination.
    Did you check that?

    In the worst cases, you must go to an ASP. It seems to be a hardware malfunction, and this must be checked by a technician of the laptop. Here, you can search the nearest ASP:

  • Re: Battery discharge by itself - Satellite A350

    I've got Toschiba Satellite A350 PSAL6E and Vista 32 bit Home Premium. The release of the battery itself for 10% by night (after 24 hours). I checked the Wake On LAN in the BIOS option and disabled (in Windows). And what is happening all the time.

    Laptop has only a few months so is this normal? What I need to use warranty repair?

    This behavior is nothing unusual, and I noticed on my Satellite A300. The last time I checked it battery lost 7% of its power during the night. You can contact the closest service and ask why this is happening, but you will see that they will confirm that it is normal and only occur not only on your laptop model.

    Don't worry about this.

  • Satellite A350/07F - problem with scrolling of the docs

    I have a question about the use of my Touch Pad of Toshiba Satellite A350/07F - laptop HNX.

    It turns out that after some time the search will stop automatically and then I have to restart my laptop so he could start again. It also stops to scroll down if I keep my cell blocked for an hour or two. No idea how to change the settigs so that this does not happen.

    Thank you guys.

    AFAIK for scrolling on touchpad it will be activated virtual bar on the right side of the touchpad.
    Try to check this in mice advanced settings where you can set all this. Disable this option and try to activate again.

    On my Satellite A300, it works fine.

  • Re: Gift of functions keyboard FN + F1/12 ' work on Satellite A350

    Hello

    I bought a new laptop Satellite A350 from 13 to about a year with a Win Vista Premium Home (Hungarian) operating system installed on it. It works beautifully.

    Not so long ago, I upgraded to Win 7/32 bit OS (Hungarian) and it seems that I've lost functions FN + F. If I push the FN button with any F key (for example. FN + F6) nothing happens. I can't disable the touchpad or (FN + F9).
    Only two features that reacts with the FN are numbers (FN + F11) and arrows (FN + F10).
    I already checked the Alps Pointing Device driver and it says it works correctly and up-to-date). I also read the Thread of NVIDIA, "Satellite A350 - cannot disable Touchpad post: 17 June 2009 22:11" but I became wiser. I'm probably too blonde for such things. (I would like to apologize in advance for blondes to this note).
    Could you please give me some suggestions.
    A quick response would be appreciated.

    Thank you very much.
    Best regards, surveys

    I agree with the user orevious;
    You need the VAP (value added package) and utility of Flash in order to get memory card Support the FN keys work correctly.

    As the VAP software and card Flash is not portable model bound, you can use the tools available to the other laptop models. for example, Satellite L500

  • Upgrade memory on the Satellite A350-10I

    I have a Toshiba satellite A350 10I. I want to increase the RAM 2x2gb ddr2 800 MHz memory.

    Can be changed with ddr3? The motherboard will support?

    This kind of upgrade can be. RAM upgrade must be done with 100% compatible modules. Faster RAM will not help at all. It depends on the motherboard THAT FSB accelerated. If you use the memory modules as soon as they be pointing down.

    How do you upgrade the drive HARD and fast use of SSDS?

  • Satellite A350-13 function keys a Windows 7 64 bit does not

    Hello
    I upgraded my new laptop Vista Win7 64 bit, however the function keys do not work and the function keys that display at the top when you press FN doesn't show any more. I installed the utility and value added package but without success. Any help is apperciated.

    Note to the Toshiba team:
    Why don't you pack all the necessary drivers and software in one package after their test, based on the model of the computer in my case Satellite A350-13, for example you could make a package for another Win7x64 to Win7x32, etc., instead of letting spend US days to understand what to install and where to find them and if it will work or not. Waiting for your comments.

    Concerning
    SAHM

    Hello

    You must install the Flash Cards in addition to the VAP support utility!
    The utility Flash card support are in the area of Satellite L500 driver for example.
    After installation if Flash card support the utility unit is restarted once more and then check the functionality.
