Satellite A120 - scroll Touchpad problems

• Satellite A100-201 touchpad problems

  I searched through the forums and many people have had problems with the touchpad, but nobody seems to have quite the same problem, as I have! If this has been asked to answer also my apologies, but I can't!

  I have a Satellite A100-201 with a 'Tablet' (as described by the technique of the Toshiba product - no mention if it comes to Synaptics or Alps, or anything else, is not that it would mean anything for me anyway. It is certainly NOT a dual pad that turns on with the blue buttons, etc.)

  Have had the laptop for over a year, and I got it all the time I have a problem where 'sometimes' function on the touchpad scroll bar doesn't work, all on his own. Sometimes I turn on the computer and it works fine, sometimes not. The same goes for the service where you tap the top right of the button and the narrowings of the active window (don't know what this is called). There seems to be no reason for this, I find the scrolling feature really useful. The rest of the touchpad functions works very well.

  I don't know if it's to do with drivers as I am not computer-oriented (I can use one for day to day stuff, but that's all) or upgrades of windows as no one else mentioned on another thread.

  If anyone has any idea how I can:

  (a) turn back ON the scrolling feature and

  (b) set it so it is permanently under voltage I would be really grateful!

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  do you have challenged yourself with synaptics/Alps touchpad Control Center / (whateveryourtouchpadsmanufactureris) and checked the settings?

  As far as I know are these touchpads really complicated when you use them, but * more * usable after setting the key to touch about the sensitivity options, etc...
  You can configure almost the entire touchpad area to adapt to your needs...

  Please, check the settings and make sure that your keyboard is configured correctly.

• Satellite T110-107: touchpad problem - pointer move sometimes

  Good afternoon everyone,

  Currently I have a series of Satellite T110-107 and have problems with the touchpad.

  I start the computer and the touchpad works very well for a few seconds, after that, the touch pad stops working to full capacity.
  If I wander my fingers on the touchpad and the pointer does not move, sometimes it will move up and down, but not as it should.

  It is a common problem, or is it a hardware problem... or is it the fact that I'm just not accustomed to having the correct settings on windows7?

  All help reveal be great, because it's very frustrating!

  Kind regards!

  Hello

  I found a few tips and tricks that you should try.

  First, you must change the sensitive touchpad settings to lower the level.
  Go to control panel-> mouse and all the settings for the touchpad to the value has a less sensitive level.

  You should also right click Synaptics Pointing Device (in the taskbar) and get in the middle of the page Double click speed on.
  Move the slider to half way down the beach. This should help you too.

  Last but not leas, you will need to disable zoom pinch.
  Go to the icon in the lower right corner Synaptics pointing device, click on 'The pointing device properties', click on the "Device settings" tab, then the settings button. Uncheck "Enable Pinch Zoom" under "Pinch Zoom".

  Greetings

• Satellite A200 - sensitivity Touchpad problem

  Hello.

  All of a sudden my touchpad has developed a mind of your own.
  If I go on something for a few seconds, it's as if I clicked it.

  It's really annoying because I was removing things that I don't want delete, selection of programs I want to choose etc.etc.

  I have looked at the Synaptics settings & can't find anything that can solve the problem, although I am totally thick when it comes to something like this.
  If anyone can offer a solution that, I understand I will be really, really grateful.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  All you can do is to check all these settings, in particular to change the sensitivity level in the hope that this behavior will stop.
  Otherwise I do not see other was about visit Toshiba service.

  Is solution of using external mouse for you? I mean you can completely disable touchpad with FN + F9 and use an external mouse.

• Satellite L670D-159: touchpad problem

  I have the erratic behavior with my touchpad.
  Everything works fine and after a while, everything is frozen. I can't use the touchpad.
  Sometimes, the "tab" I want to save my work, and reboot the system.
  But I do not have to manually stop.

  I have the latest driver telecharged, "version 15.0.8.1 10/03/2010 Synaptics. But no change.
  Can you help me please?

  Concerning

  More information: I return to my post for the problem appears right now!
  So live: temp °: beetween 36 ° and 40 °. Fan max speed: 62%
  The touchpad does not work, but this time the '. insertion point' is able to move!

  If for example, I am writing this post with the finger, I put the "PointInsertion" where I want to and click on the left button: it is right and I can write to this location.

  Close other windows, I use tab, button left and right.
  In conclusion, I think the bad (?) material is only sensitive touchpad.

  What should do?

  > Everything works fine and after a while, everything is frozen. I can't use the touchpad.
  > Sometimes the "tab" I want to save my work, and reboot the system.
  > But I do not often have to stop manually.

  Have you noticed the same thing with the external USB mouse?
  If the problem is the same using the USB mouse and touchpad then the issue is NOT related to the touchpad, but maybe other reasons may be that the system is overloading or the operating system may be corrupt.
  Have you tried new installation of the OS?

• Satellite P300-1 year - Touchpad problem with AC adapter / CC

  I have a laptop Satellite P300-1 year and from the beginning (two weeks)
  I have a touchpad problem: it will not immediately responsive and the pointer shakes when pressing the key. Very often, it freezes for only one or two seconds.

  It's VERY annoying. A USB mouse works perfectly.
  I tried to reinstall the drivers of the ALPS, tried Synaptics ones, just try Windows Vista drivers: no way.

  Now, I found the reason: this question is present only when the laptop is powered by the AC adapter / CC.
  With the battery, the touchpad is perfect.

  I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore!
  Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

  Anyone had this same problem?

  > I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore! Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

  The point is that your laptop should be always verified using the Toshiba factory setting.
  Why? Because the ASP wants to make sure that this issue is not related to a software problem (compatibility problems with applications 3rd part). Software problems are not covered by the warranty.

  In addition the ASP will always recover the laptop before the verification of the pieces of equipment to malfunction. Therefore, you should always back up your data from the HARD disk until you send the laptop to check.

  I recommend you to reinstall the operating system using the Toshiba recover disc and then check if the problem appears.
  If yes you can contact ASP and could provide all the necessary details for only one technician.

  Good bye

• Satellite A210 - keyboard, touchpad, battery, boot problems

  Hello

  Satellite A210 age of less than twelve months.

  1. the speakers had problem - ASP replaced the motherboard, but now the volume is still very low, even when it is 100%. All parameters controlled and seem to agree. How to fix?

  2. do not always start battery as it is constantly flat. Laptop went to ASP which replaced the motherboard (again) and put the new battery. Now it is always best to run the laptop power adapter the battery loses still fresh. If unplugged from mains battery going flat all night?

  3. has refused to start with the power button, talking to ASP who advised to reformat the PC - fact, but problem remained

  4. reformatted much more time and finally returned to ASP that now the keyboard did not always work either. ASP has replaced the motherboard (which is now the third), but has not solved the problem and the keyboard. Still not having not battery

  5. the day I return A210, touchpad did not work. Talked to ASP which gave me a lot of options to try, including turn it off and wait 30 minutes, which is not done. He returned in ASP which says that there is nothing wrong with him?

  How can I set the power and touchpad problem?
  Gave up the drums and speakers
  .
  Maybe someone else that ASP can give me an answer please. All I want is to be able to use my laptop and do all the usual things a PC, sound, keyboard, power batteries and do not always put in a USB mouse.

  Help appreciated

  > I tried the volume button on the front of the laptop, and it does not the speakers all stronger. I wouldn't know how to go into BIOS to change things.
  In the BIOS, you cannot change these settings. I guess that this issue has something to do with the previous motherboard replacement.

  > Do I need to get a person who makes a PC run to change?
  I think you should communicate with guys that have changed are repaired this laptop and should explain the problems that appears after change of motherboard.

• Equium P300-16 t - scroll Touchpad has stopped working

  The basic touchpad functions are OK, but the ability to scroll by dragging your finger along the right or bottom of the touchpad disappeared.

  I tried to reinstall the driver but no luck.

  I saw similar comments in another thread (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=107615𚑟) where the proposed solution was to restore from the recovery CD.

  This seems a little drastic for a touchpad problem and I hesitate because I'm about 6 months on this machine and do not really want to go back to zero.

  Any other ideas?

  Thank you

  Hmm, yes it s radically to use the Toshiba recovery disc and reinstall the entire system only to recover the touchpad features.
  What you could do is to check if the touchpad scroll function has been configured correctly.

  In the control manager of-> mouse, you should find the necessary adjustments.

  In addition the satellite P300 PSPC2E needs two drivers touchpad.
  I put t know which driver you have reinstalled, but you must reinstall both. Synaptics and Alps Electric

  Good bye

• Satellite T130 - 10G Touchpad screen pointer gets stuck in random patterns

  Satellite T130 - 10G Touchpad screen pointer gets stuck in random patterns and laptop computer must be restarted to restore functionality
  The center of the causes of "touchpad button" toggle switch by pressing the touchpad pointer to enter a random State like two fingers to zoom.

  Sometimes, he'll be back to normal, but most of the time the computer should be put to sleep or restarted to restore functionality.

  a. I tried turn off all touch pad feature one item at a time and all, he still has some weird random State.
  (Did not try the impossible combination need $ to be interested but went to the 90% level)

  b. I tried disable the touch pad buttons offending and only using the mode tap the buttons and the problem still persist.

  c. Finally, tried bending the entire keyboard instead of pressing the buttons and it has also created the problem.

  This leads me to believe either the power key or flexion of the entire keyboard is originally is

  a. flexion of the touch pad causing the driver getting into a crazy State or require a recalibration.

  b. electrical connections causing the driver enter a crazy State or require a recalibration of bending.

  Note: I have reinstall the latest version of the driver.
  Also: American Toshiba support site that this problem exists in the notebooks of May.

  Also: The touchpad is too sensitive, which makes it very unusable!

  CAry

  Have you tried to install the operating system and check the functionality of the touchpad with the factory settings?
  Recovery image contains tested the touchpad and right and I don't think that helps the driver installation.

• Satellite C855-2GX - touchpad is lagging while doing somehting that need RAM

  Hey all :)

  I have a toshiba Satellite C855-2gx
  My problems touchpad lag so much if I install a software or I'm doing something which need to ram (games, defragmentation)

  There is no solution for my problem please :'(

  and sometimes the shift of the pc (keyboard and mouse do not work)

  Sometimes, I noticed the same on machines with low performance. It happens when the drive is extremely busy and portable needs performance for some intensive like defragmentation operations or antivirus scan.

  What you can do about it? In General, you can improve Ram to increase performance of s for laptop and also you can optimize the preinstalled operating system. With optimize I mean you can disable all unnecessary applications and the boot process for your laptop will take care with less background process.
  Also disable the Windows automatic update installation. Use the option check for updates but let me choose...

  I think that you need to upgrade RAM. If you need advice or help with this let us know.

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

  It's strange, but you should try to reinstall the laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc.

  Maybe you should first check the Toshiba website for a new driver and BIOS:

• How to get the BT works after removing the battery of BT on a Satellite A120

  Hello

  I have a new satellite A120 and it had bluetooth...
  IT HAD bluetooth.
  I clicked by mistake on the prog to install for battery bluetooth... and it UNINSTALLED.

  Now, it will not install again. It just happens to 'Setup Bluetooth device', waits, and then comes back with the message "Please plug in the bluetooth device, then click OK" and bluetooth devices are in Control Panel or the system devices.

  What can I do?

  Objects of curiosity very it is, because you can't "Uninstall" a hardware system with just disconnected from the control panel. After that, it must be recognized by the system and reinstalled. Do you have a few unknown devices in your device manager.

  It might be trying to let Device Manager looking for new material, and then your machine you might find the BT card.

• Satellite A120 has TV Out port?

  I'm in the market for an A120, I have a limited budget of A £450 so I have to get this right. Can anyone confirm if the cheapest A120 (PSAC0E-007009EN) a/svhs-output tv-out. I know the A100 has tv-out, but what attracts me to the A120 is the inclusion of 5:1 card reader.

• Re: Satellite P200 (PSPB6E) - keyboard problem

  Hello

  I have a keyboard with Satellite P200, series PSPB6E problem.

  Keyboard seems to generate Press Page Down constantly, although nothing has been paid to this subject.
  It is even difficult to turn on laptop, because it produced consecutive beeps and prevents the computer from starting.

  Sometimes some keyboard characters do not work, and in the second time it works. Sometimes same PgDown works as expected.
  Œuvres for additional keyboard, but it also receives PgDown keyboard of the laptop.

  Now, I can't insert any sentence in this post, because PgDown will move the cursor down.
  Laptop is under warranty. Should I enable it?

  I note that no. LIQUID is poured on the keyboard.

  On the keyboard of the computer laptop not work keys A, B, N, LEFT SHIFT, INPUT, same brief moments where PgDown keys not dumping. Sometimes even these key works!

  Best regards
  Vladimir Stefanovic

  Great news, buddy! :)

  I also have good experience with my ASP. They fixed the laptop as soon as possible and the repair took only a few days. It's also free.

  So still I m happy with the service!
