• Satellite L670 - strange problems with HDMI connection

  Hello

  I experience problems when you use the hdmi connection:

  My computer: Satellite L670

  Scope: Watch movies on the LCD external (sony bravia) via hdmi

  Computer param: Clone computer - screen plugged - features full power - the screen of the laptop has been set in order to let the computer works normally when closed.

  When you play a movie with the laptop open screen, no problems. I have twice the movie, one on the computer screen and the clone on my external LCD. Perfect.
  But if I close the laptop screen (which would normally have no effect), lagging behind the film on the external display. He stops each 5 seconds for a few seconds and leaves, making it unreadable.

• Some letters are missing when I open a PDF file in Firefox. Works fine in other browsers.

  When I open a PDF using Firefox, some letters of the words that are printed on the document are missing. In my view, that the creator of the document used a text box to add 'Draft' on it. The D is missing. I found some words are 'Negotiable no copy' and the C is missing. These same files PDF open correctly in IE and Chrome. Experienced on V22 - V25. Using Windows7

  Are there fonts embedded in the PDF file or the policy that is set as default in Options > content?

  You can right click on the text and use "Inspect element" to open the built-in Inspector and navigate the tabs fonts to see what font is used.

• On Satellite L750D keyboard problem

  L750D keyboard problems

  Hi some of the keys on my L750D don't work correctly for example
  The R key works fine in word format, BUT on a page web, it removes what I typed above
  The SHIFT key in MS word deletes a line on the web pages need you out of the box, in which you type
  Key 4 above the alpha keys is stuck and only appears as the sign $
  Enter the key 4 on the left is fine
  The caps lock light doesn't turn on but works fine

  Everything else seems fine,
  Because the R key work different in different applications I m thinking that it s not a problem of keyboard more in the settings (I did a restore without help)
  Please help is it possible to reset the keyboard to its original settings?

• Satellite A210 keyboard problem - Missing letters and generally acting-up

  Operating system: OS independent (tried multiple: OpenBSD, Linux, Windows XP, Vista, Win7)

  Symptom:
  Keys is de-energized or gives wrong output. The problems occurs randomly, either right at startup or after availability. Looks like it's a hardware related issue and not a problem with the OS. The problem occurs in several OS´s and even in the BIOS-meny. None of the solutions posted in this forum / other items solves the problem.

  The battery is not a solution (as suggested in other posts), the problem reoccurs after availability and sometimes even right to restart the computer. (Et laisse le visage, un ordinateur portable sans une batterie est un _stationary_) =)

  No! It's not overheating and heat issue, this problem may occur at startup after a powerdown complete with battery and power removed. (and no, this isn't a problem of dust or a problem of broken / lack of cooling-fans/ventilation)

  I use the lates for my model BIOS, so make a habit/flash-update of the bios to solve the problem.
  Default factory restore is not a solution either, but _différemment_ ive tried, even if this problem most def is a hardware problem.

  All the other solutions suggested by other posters solves the problem (most of them software related bugs in any case).

  Comments:
  The problem started recently enough (ive had this laptop for about a year and a half) and judging by the other posts in this forum seams problem began on the same date/time to a suspect that he is a "calendar/clock" related question... but I'm not an expert and it's just a hunch (would explain why some users may experience a temporary "I solved the problem by changing keyboard-calendar" - euporia until) what they ecounter problem once again after a time of ).

  The problem arises _completely_ radom and under any given the cirumstance...

  Any suggestions?

  The links that you post are not related to the A210 but L670 laptop model and it was reading about L670 and the problem has been resolved by the BIOS updated

  I have a laptop A210 and this issue never happened to me.
  I installed Win XP, Vista and Win 7 on the Satellite A210 and keyboard is ok.

  You have already updated the BIOS and fact laptop recovery and this didn't help?
  OK, so it seems to be linked to the keyboard and the AEP from Toshiba technician should check what

• Satellite C660 - keyboard problem

  I have a problem with the keyboard on my Satellite c660 laptop, reference number: PSC1LE.
  The best way I can describe it is like a stuttering problem because it comes and go (very well for a few hours, then not for a short period).

  The problem is that, for reasons unknown to me, I continue to experience a problem where the A, N and Enter keys do not work when you press. Sometimes pressing the key several times (they they are not frozen) is simply the letter out, but I can not continue to press the time key to five or six to get a letter. Just to mention, I've not spilled anything on the keyboard.

  I did full virus and spyware scans but have found no problem.
  I have done tonight all the updates of windows available to me, but it does not appear to have done the trick.

  After the restart that follows the device updates all worked them for about 15 minutes, so that the same three keys stopped working again. On this occasion, it lasted only a few minutes, and now I'm writing this with the same keyboard.

  Note: I do not use the original keyboard. I changed the jury due to minor property damage, but he did private.
  However, this was done most of the year there and worked flawlessly since installation, until this new edition took place in recent weeks.

  If anyone has new recommendations or suggestions as to what can be the cause or solutions and then share it please.

  I think you'd understand that nobody is able to say why your keyboard malfunctioned.
  Only if the hardware of the laptop has been scanned/verified, it would be possible to say what's wrong here
  But as General, there is a good workaround solution to diagnose the problem.

  You could connect the external USB keyboard to the laptop and could check if the same problems with the mentioned buttons will occur.

  In case the external USB keyboard would work correctly, I think that your internal keyboard is the troublemaker in such a case, you will need to replace the keyboard once more.

• Satellite L670-1KZ - problem for a disc of 3 TB external HARD

  I use 3 TB drive Seagate and WD on my Antec external box or grid of storeva very often to back up my data.

  The problem is it randomely, I can't disconnect my external hard drive.

  Sometimes, it works using HotSwap when connected with e-sata cable, sometimes it is said that my external HDD is still in use and request a reboot, but more dangerous, like today, nothing happens when you use this time this cursed F * tool windows 7 64-bit: "eject the disc safely" through the green icon.

  I see my drive external HARD on windows Explorer, but it is completely locked and blocked, frozen. I can wait an hour, nothing changes. The problem is that when I try to reboot my laptop, it crash and I have to manually shut down.

  And it's very bad, because after that, when I reconnect my external SD, I still have the same problem, the data have disappeared or are inaccessible.
  If I perform a scandisk to repair the damaged cluster supposed-to-be, it hangs at X %, then, I'll have to kill the process, restart, plug the external SD. And then, no error message more, not corrupted data etc etc...
  The result is sometimes, no damage, sometimes I have the bad surprise with damaged files, it's Russian roulette!

  I never know if my data on my hard drive has been corrupted or not until I test, how for example an original bluray movie that will not play propely because a single m2ts file is dead.

  I'm tired of living with fear or crashing 3 TB of data at any time, the 2 TB SD never never will ever face this problem.

  * Question: * is at - it solution secure to avoid this problem of ejection of the external 3 to DD permanently or do I have to change my cell phone? I don't have a PC, just my satellite.

  With my thanks for your help, I'm desperate.

  Generally, you will not be able to eject safely the external HARD disk, if an application still accesses the HARD drive. This can be a process that runs in the background.
  In this case you must close this process in order to eject the HARD disk.
  In my case, I couldn't eject the HARD drive because I've downloaded some files from the external HARD drive to my cloud. I had to close all my browser windows just to eject the HARD disk.

  But this does not mean that this could be the case even for your question, it may be any process that you know

• Satellite A300D keyboard problem after using an external USB keyboard

  I use a Satellite A300D series laptop and while at home, I use a UBS keyboard on it, but once the laptop is used without a USB keyboard only some of the keys seem to work, I get number 6 when I press the i key.

  I thought that this could be because the USB keyboard would not have been arrested properaly when I unplugged and the portable thought he was always there, but even after the stop of the USB keyboard is the same!

  All the answers to my problem?

  Hello

  On my Satellite A300, I can get 3 when I press L. It can be done if you are using the FN + F11 key combination.
  Perhaps this option enabled on your laptop?

• Satellite C50 - keyboard problem

  Hello

  Some time ago, I spilled beer on my Satellite C50D-A-133, and as a result of this stupidity of my friends as you can guess the keyboard has stopped working properly. I was afraid that the liquid can cause damage to the pc, so I took the keyboard out immediately. Even if I left dry and cleaned, as soon as I connect it to the laptop it starts to act as if a button is constantly kept pressed. I thought I can get a new and just replace it, but I can't seem to find the same model on the net. What can I do?

  Please help me with this problem because I am a student and need my laptop at all times especially for courses and tests the on-screen keyboard could never do the trick.

  Any peace of mind would be much appreciated. Thank you!

  >... so I took the keyboard out immediately
  There on the back sticker with the exact part number. You can use this part number and try to order a new one. You can also do is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

  Connect the external USB keyboard and test functionality. Check if the use of the external USB keyboard would repeated the same problems.
  In case the external USB keyboard would work correctly, the problem is related to the internal keyboard to be replaced.

  Warranty is still valid?
  If so, get in touch with service partners in your country. The keyboard should be replaced free of charge.
