• Satellite L50-A-111: dimming does not work properly after Win 8.1 upgrade

  Hello

  I have a problem with my laptop computer truebright LED monitor.
  Brightness works correctly, but the brightness variation is not.

  I should be able to choose from a range of 0 to 100% in both, but in gradation brightness that I can not only get up to 10% even though it says its 100%
  because when I level down it says 8,6,5,3,1 level and 0 when I get home eco and when I max he says 10% for 1 second, then 100%.

  Oh and something important, change the brightness variation has no effect at all, I think it's just stuck at 10%.

  But I know clearly that it is 10%.
  I tried everything so far, restore archive and the registry.
  It wasn't even until I restored the registry. I also tried advanced options that once solved this problem for me, tried everything, expect to reinstall the operating system.

  I installed windows 8.1 Windows store recently I don't know if its related.
  All my drivers are up to date.
  Happened yesterday after Batman Arkham City GOTY installing and disabling the Anti Virus, Firewall, etc...

  I don't know what else to try, im really frustrated, I can't handle this without the gradation of light at its maximum. My only concern is to reinstall the operating system did not solve my problems.

  Please give me some info on how to solve this problem, I'll try the registry if someone can help out me.
  Thank you in advance.

  My best regards,

  Hello

  To be honest I m a bit confused.

  You said that you have upgraded to Win 8.1
  After these updates, you must update all the Toshiba drivers as mentioned on the 8.1 win Toshiba upgrade page.
  On the page of the Toshiba UE driver you can find the installation instructions that will show you how to install / update all drivers.

  This is very important!

• Qosmio X 875 - ECO mode does not work immediately after Win 8 upgrade

  I used the upgrade Toshiba Upgrade Wizard to Win 8. He succeeded well uninstall the incompatible software before the upgrade and install the new Toshiba and driver versions after the upgrade.

  I activated the ECO mode, and to my surprise, it does not work as before (in Windows 7):

  * Now, it works with the brightness to level 1 *... very dark. Before, ECO mode allowed me to go up to level 4 and was always considered in Eco mode...

  If I increase the brightness, the 'eco mode is disabled' message opens immediately.

  How to contact Toshiba to inform them of this problem and the other problem I found with the new BIOS?

  BTW, I am owner of a Qosmio X 875

  Contact your Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.

  Read this:
  + What is the TOSHIBA eco Utility? +

  > It changes the brightness of the display of level 4, changes the brightness of the grey screen of level 1 (* 4),.
  _The * 4 means only on models with Windows7 installed _

  I guess that the previous configuration was only Win 7.

  8 win was made for mobile (use of the Tablet), the energy consumption of battery is also very important plant help to win 8. The consumption of the battery must be taken at the lowest level possible.
  So I guess that now help win 8 ECO medium mode and save the power max and long battery life time working at a max level.

• Satellite P300 - quick launch buttons does not work properly

  I installed Windows 7 Pro on my Satellite P300 and everytime I try to use the button mute etc it starts the program set button assignment but no options are available to choose.

  Has anyone encountered this and a fix?

  Hey Jones,.

  Can you please tell us which version of Windows 7, you have exactly? I mean the 32-bit version or 64-bit and you downloaded the package of value added specially for Windows 7? From Toshiba Web site shows also different patterns of P300, what model number you have?

  Have you ever tried to assign different functions to the button? For example, there is a file mute.exe as far as I know in case Toshiba should be assigned to the button mute. Check it!

  Maybe reinstall the VAP might also be useful.

• Satellite P25-S520 - DVD player does not work properly

  Difficulty of DVD player or buy the external drive

  My DVD player does not work properly, in fact it can never work properly. Recently, I tried to back up my PC on a DVD using Norton 360. Norton did not recognize that the DVD was present. Then I tried to write a text file on a DVD and was a failure. DVD + R and DVD-R media were found to be (Maxwell 16 X).

  I could have probably lived with this however, I received a copy of Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10 on a CD and my Toshiba would not recognize it. I tried the CD in my laptop nearby and it was recognized.

  An attempt to update the driver has also fails.

  I was able to copy a CD of music last night so that at least works properly.

  Does anyone know how can I fix? The important part is to be able to load my new program.

  Research on some forums I found that other people have had problems with the Pioneer drive. If the drive can't be fixed, I'm not adverse to buying an external DVD drive. Unfortunately, where I live there is no brick and mortar stores selling external drives and I prefer to avoid the hassle of getting a drive online and discovering that it does not work with my Toshiba. Can someone suggest an external USB drive that will read and write CD and DVD and is certain to be compatible with my Toshiba?

  Thanks for any help,

  PIONEER DVD - RW DVR-K12D
  Driver provider: Microsoft

  Any external USB CD/DVD drive will be compatible with your laptop.

  However, you won't be able to boot from CD (run recovery for example) If you are using an external drive.

  So, your best option would be to replace the internal drive with a Toshiba drive designed for the laptop. Call an ASP and request a quote.

• Spilled beer on Satellite A300-16I - now button does not work:

  So, when I press it and does not work... without 'h' are written.

  Is there a way I could fix this cause I don t feel like using the copy / paste function to write the letter "h"... Well I hope someone like solution :)

  Hello

  Hmm, in all likelihood, your keyboard needs to be replaced.
  I doubt that the only button H can be fixed and thus the entire keyboard needs to be replaced.

  Contact the ASP in your country and request a replacement.

  However, you can also use an external USB keyboard, but I think that it of better to have a laptop keyboard that works properly.

• Satellite P300D-110 integrated webcam does not work properly.

  Hi all

  as the title suggests, the webcam built-in in my Toshiba Satellite P300D-110 does not work correctly. Allow me to explain. Using the camera Assistance software I can take pictures and record music. If I try to record a video preview screen comes black and the end result on black, pitch black aswell tuns.

  Whenever I try to use my camera with applications such as MSN Live Messenger, Skype or on community websites, using Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari the app crashes.

  * How what happened? *

  You tell me. That's how it happened;
  * 1st day: I booted up my laptop and looked at my installation fresh and clean Windows vista Home premium. I tried my webcam using the webcam support software and it worked like a charm.
  * Day 2: once I start my laptop and try to start my webcam only to find out that he is no longer functions.
  To give a quick summary of the thread;

  Help of camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba, can I take pictures.
  Help of camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba, I can record the sound.
  Using camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba I can _ * NOT * _ save or preview of a video.
  * I can't start my camera using any other application such as, but not limited to; MSN Live Messenger, Skype, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safar.
  * I downloaded and isntalled the latest drivers on the Toshiba site.
  Portable listen is on a weekday.

  I'm not sure what more I can do, all I want is for the webcam works, if someone can help me please do.
  And if possible WITHOUT having to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium.
  I have not yet used and would not do as a solution to all the problems that might occur in the future.

  Sincerely,

  a sad customer.

  Camera Assistance software using provided by Toshiba I can't save or preview of a video.
  Can you please describe the steps how you try to do this? I have to ask you this question because it works fine on my laptop. When the recording is finished Player opens and you can see saved the film. This is the avi format and at the top of this player, you can see the path where the film is recorded.

  Strangest thing for me, is that you can not use it with Skype. OK for MSN is not perfect, but there is absolutely no problem with Skype. Make sure the settings and it should work somehow.

• Phone of blackBerry Smartphones does not work properly after upgrading Poynt

  Hello.

  Yesterday, I upgraded my poynt app, which seems to have causes all types of problems with my phone.

  (1) my email account icons have all disappeared, although it recognizes new messages, I can't access it.

  (2) the device does not allow me to access my texts all the time as well, and I get errors such as:

  Eception exception: application_net_rim_bb_message_app (231) does not.  I had the same message with several different numbers.

  I also have java.null messages, even if it is rare and I don't remember the exact error.

  (3) desktop manager cannot access the device, it does not allow me to backup my data.

  (4) I tried to reload the os, and applications but it fails because it cannot back up data...

  I'm lost and can't seem to find help on the net for this, and at this point, I want to just wipe the slate and start over from scratch.  Maybe completely reload the software or something.  I have most of my contact information on my sim card from my previous phone, data loss would be minimal...

  can someone help me please understand what to do.

  Info on the device

  Your carrier: att

  Model information and the version of the OS (go to settings, then Options, then):

  8900 v4.6.1.231 platform 4.2.0.108

  Apps and free space

  hard battery pull did not.

  Installed apps and their version if possible.  I have several apps installed:

  Poynt, bloomberg, score, xenozu, facebook, bablphone, CBS Spanish football, dictionary.com, anchor.  all are the latest versions, except for some reason any phone does not recognize that I have the latest version of home.

  but the last poynt update caused this, and I have already deleted poynt.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Thanks for your help.  So a question I had was that my camera was unable to save all the data, and therefore loader did not work properly.  I read somewhere that you can stop the car to the top, did this and reloaded the new os.  I think that things are finally working

  Thanks again for your help.
