Satellite A505 - ECO and button mute don't work

Good evening everyone,

Forgive me, but I'm new to this forum.
The ECO utility and mute didn't seem to work on my laptop. When I press the button mute I hear a beep but i still get sound and when I press the eco button nothing happens.

However, the volume keys Up and Down works play/pause and skip buttons work fine when I'm listening music.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I love this laptop. Was my first, so you can understand why I'm having these issues and cannot remedy. But I think it is happening, finally, I did an update, do not know if this is what caused it.

Again any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated...

Hello

Seems a (possibly windows) updates confusing the registry and this could be the reason for this
Usually the VAP (value added package) control buttons.

This is why I would recommend that a proposal of solution; Reinstall the VAP.
Visit the page of the Toshiba driver and download the good PPV for your notebook from the series.
Remove the old, reboot the device and reinstall the VAP.

  • Satellite A505-s6970: Toshiba Service Station does not work on Windows 7

    Hey guys I need your help,

    I installed windows 7 ultimate on my toshiba Satellite A505 s6970 and I downloaded all the drivers from http://www.csd.toshiba.com/ and I installed all.

    When I open the Device Manager, 3 devices are not installed (Base-2 system device / / 1-Unknown device).
    Then I installed toshiba service station (Windows Vista / 7 32-64 bit because my windows is 64) it will search for and automatically download all necessary devices, but it does not work on windows 7, it worked perfectly in windows vista.

    Also the eco utility does not work, and the media touch buttons work just fine, but without giving that voice tone.

    Thanks for your help

    Hello

    To be honest I have no experience with this tool.
    I m using Tempro.

    However, I guess that Toshiba service station was not tested and not designed for Win 7 at the moment.
    You may need to wait for the next update that works correctly with Windows 7.

    You must understand that the Windows 7 drivers have been released in Beta version, it would mean that the final version would be released in the near future
    In my opinion, you should take a look from time to time on the Toshiba page we.
    I noticed that each new day pilot is released and released.

  • Satellite A505-S6973 and the OS upgrade

    Users of computers laptop toshiba colleagues,.

    I'm here tonight to find out, my laptop has touchpad buttons and quickplay and wondering if I should upgrade my pc to Windows 7 I was able to use all these features (more eco and pc health monitor utility).

    I ask this because currently my pc has, which is supposed to be a hard disk of 500 GB, 317 GB of available hard disk space, but I barely information or documents stored on my system. I understand I have programs installed, but still for this amount.

    So, long story short, if I had to remove and install the Windows 7 operating system, and I installed the toshibha value added utility programs package and eco, that would be all I need to dload and install because I love this pc.

    Also can anyone with a Toshiba Satellite A505-S6973 tell me if they can smell it the breeze coming out of their laptop because my fan seems to blow slowly and always higher, the temperature on my system is currently 90% and 64% CPU TEMPERATURE FAN SPEED and I HAV my system set up to use low power.

    I enjoyed all the comments, suggestions and advice...

    I don't have a US mobile phone model and can't answer your second question, but I know with certainty that Win7 works well on the Satellite A500.
    Two months ago, I had the Satellite A500 friends home. Initially, it was pre-installed with Vista.
    I did two experiments to see how it works with Win7. First I updated it with the Toshiba upgrade kit and everything was OK.
    With the new installation of the OS, everything was OK also.

    Before Win7 installation please check Toshiba support page to make sure what version is fully supported. Here in Europe only Win7 64 bit is completely compatible.

  • Satellite P850 138 - left button of the touchpad works most completely

    My touchpad started acting strange.

    left mouse button has stopped working completely and the right hand one worked only intermittently, and whenever I clicked on legs, be it firefox, IE, Safari, or whatever it is in the menu at the bottom such as a folder bar or whatever it is she she closed (no im not not by clicking on the red X)

    Then all of a sudden after awhile he would all start working again. This has happened twice now.
    Restart the system doesn't do nothing there just suddenly starts and stops all of a sudden, but the periods for which it occurs seems to get more time.

    Also the icon of touchpad in the corner with the cross through it has decided to turn its self on a few days ago and found out that the touchpad was disabled on its own and figured out how to re-enable.

    I know this isn't a virus as ive run lots of different anti virus on my system and I was wondering if his time to restart the computer in the store and get a replacement as ive she was only 4 months old

    Its really annoying as im a photographer and rely on this laptop for editing phot o. can someone please help :)

    Hello

    My personal opinion, you should not replace this laptop until you tried not to workarounds.
    First you don t know if its software related issue.
    The point is that if its software delivers, you could solve it easily recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive option.

    Please try to configure the computer laptop initial configuration using disk HARD recovery.
    Press F8-> choose fix my computer-> drive HARD recovery

    If HARD drive recovery is not available, press F12 and check if there is a HARD drive recovery option.
    After the system recovery, make sure that the touchpad and other features of the laptop.

  • [Living corners] ALT-click and double-click don't work

    This should be easy... I'm trying to implement the living corners on a rectangle shape. Specifically, I'm trying to...

    1. View the range of corners by double clicking on the widget.
    2. Change the type of corner in alt-click on the widget.

    In both cases (when I double click on the widget or alt + click on it) it simply sets the radius of rounding. He cannot make the changes described in the tutorial video (CC Illustrator Live Corners). I realize I can work around the problem by working directly with the Palette of corners (by clicking on the link of the main toolbar). It's just that I love shortcuts and they don't seem to work!

    Any ideas?

    Sébastien.

    I found the problem.

    When you run a licensed version of Teamviewer 9 (v9.0.32494), Adobe Illustrator don't like ALT + click or double-clicks to living corners. When I stop 9 Teamviewer, it starts working again. When I start it, I stop working again. It is reproducible, so I'll put it down, as the diagnosis.

    In summary, if your corners to live responds more to ALT + CLICK or double clicks, tries to find a version of Teamviewer on your machine and disable it while you work.

    Thanks for all help!

    Hello.

    I own the specifications described. I install it on Windows 7 64-bit version.
    I have install driver Toshiba Value Package added. The buttons touch media worked awhile. I have setup my media player application too.

    Now all of a sudden the mute and media player application launch touch button does nothing.
    I try to reinstall the drivers and still the same problem. For a while, everything was functional and all of a sudden just 2 buttons do not work.
    The rest of the buttons are ok.

    I thank in advance your help.

    Hi mate

    To my knowledge, there is a more recent version of VAP for Win 7 64 bit

    I recommend the VAP in the driver download section released for other series laptops more recent.
    Before installing the new version, please remove the old version, clean the registry (CCleaner is a good tool) and after rebooting again, install the VAP.

    The help is apreciated...

    Concerning

    Hello

    Hmm. you are able to activate the Eco utility manually, but it does not start automatically when you press the button.
    This means that there must be a problem with some command buttons that run the applications.
    Usually the PPV control multimedia keys and so the new facility should fix this.

    I think you should try this;
    Firstly uninstall the VAP system.
    Then, clean the windows operating system using the free tools like CCleaner for example.
    This tool cleans garbage temporal files and the registry.
    I think that some damaged registry entries can cause this
    Restart the computer and then install 64-bit VAP.

    Good luck
