• 'Lost' on Satellite Pro L870 webcam

  I bought a SatellitePro L870-171, with factory pre-installed Win 8 64 bit laptop for Christmas gift from my wife.

  Taking advantage of the opportunity to get familiar with the functions and utilities, I found the web camera integrated a few days ago, which produced a self-portrait on the screen! More recently, I tried to find the way to access the camera again as my wife will want to try "Skype".

  I can't locate or obtain a new screen image - no doubt I have pressed the wrong button screen at any given time have disconnected?

  The camera is a USB device. I checked with + Control Panel/Device Manager/imaging devices + and the camera is shown as working properly with his driver as "TOSHIBA Web Camera - HD" - there is no yellow exclamation of warning icon. By clicking on the device and selecting Properties tab indicates the device is working properly. looking at + system devices in Control Panel under USB Controller all seem OK. Looking at + Panel configuration/devices & Printers + does not show a camers. (For some reason, this laptop doesn't have an applciation of camera like on the Win 7 version (don't know why?) when the Toshiba web site is checked.)

  I was looking for Panel start with "camera" and all I get is a list of menu small
  -CameraSettingsUIHost.exe
  -ViewScanners & cameras

  By clicking on the file EXE does nothing.
  It is located in four files when you perform a search in windows for this.
  By clicking on "ViewScanners"... "a dialogue window which should display the devices listed, connected and turned on. -There is nothing showing?

  Click the Add button and crossed in the following windows, but only four manufacturers of cameras in the list, Dell, Kyocera, Lexmark, Xerox - neither of which is Toshiba.

  Can anyone suggest what steps are needed to 'find' the camera again?

  I found on
  
  a file from Toshiba Web Camera Application < tc30463200a.exe=""> , size 86 MB, for Win 7 32 bit to Win 8 64 bit.

  There are hundreds of laptops listed, but not my specific - the only L870 are «...» L870-ST2N01, L870D-BT2N22, L870-ST2NX1, L870-ST2N02, L870-BT2N22, L870D-ST2NX1... »

  Should I install this application, although there is was that nothing installed initially?

  Thank you in anticipation of the answers.

  Hello

  First of all, you said you have a Satellite Pro L870-171 the link you posted above leads to the Toshiba driver page we your laptop is a European series, so you must use the drivers supplied by Toshiba UE driver page.

  Your L870 Pro Satellite belongs to the PSKFPE series and the drivers can be found here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  However, I think that the webcam software is already preinstalled on your laptop, but you have looked in no position to webcam that you should not look in Control Panel, or in the Device Manager in you want to start the webcam program.
  You must start windows explore and go to all programs-> Toshiba
  There you should find the webcam utility.

  Hello

  Before performing a recovery facility, you should try to update the driver for the webcam and the BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  If it doesn t work you must run an installation recovery and in the worst case, the hardware may be faulty and you will need assistance from an authorized service provider.
  If your laptop is still under warranty, the repair should be free.

• Satellite Pro A300 - Webcam does not work in Windows live messenger

  Recently bought a Satellite Pro A300, with integrated webcam. However, when I try to use the webcam in Windows live messenger it comes up with the following error messages.

  * "We couldn't start your camera. Please check that your camera is not currently being used by another program, and then try again. » *

  Also this message...

  * "Messenger is not available right now. Please try again later. (0x82000009). "

  Now, the camera is not enabled, and Messenger works normally.

  * HELP! *

  Thank you

  Folic

  When you get the message if another program uses always the camera.

  So, try to disable the webcam software and other e-mail programs in msconfig.
  Restart the laptop and if you want to use the webcam software you need to start the first webcam software.

• Satellite Pro A300-28R - shows horizontal stripes

  My Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 sometimes displays horizontal stripes making the text unreadable images before portable crushes and I have to restart. Occurs usually when I'm on the internet. Does anyone know why this happens and how to solve?
  Once I rang Toshiba UK Technical Support and a rather impatient adviser said it was a discharge of static electricity problem, but why is it not with my laptop Pavilion?

  My Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 is less than one year, but the problem occurred repeatedly. I also had to replace the power adapter already because of the cable being too steep to the piece of cylindrical shape next to the Jack. Is this all I know a question of production with this series of laptops?

  > My Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 sometimes displays horizontal stripes making the text unreadable images before portable crushes and I have to restart. Occurs usually when I'm on the internet. Does anyone know why this happens and how to solve?

  These symptoms of display can be connected to a screen, graphics card driver or the graphics chip.
  First of all, you should try to update the graphics driver and should check it again.
  Secondly if this problem would appear then you must connect an external monitor to the laptop to check if the same would be visible on the external display.
  If so, the problem could be related to the graphics chip.

  It would be the worst case, a graphics chip cannot be replaced, but the whole mobo must be replaced in order to solve such a problem.

  Did you delete or remove this system?
  Check if this software is available on your laptop.
  It s call: Camera Assistant Software.

  If you start this software then you can check the parameters and features of webcam.

• Satellite Pro L40 does not start

  When I turn on my Satellite Pro L40 it shows me a screen asking me to start to repair windows or start windows normally.
  When you choose the option it brings me to the same screen.

  Does anyone have any ideas?

  Thank you very much

  Salvation will be

  For me, it looks like the OS installed was confused for no apparent reason
  If you are not able to boot into the Windows XP operating system and if the repair option doesn t helps to start in safe mode I n t see any other possibility as to boot from the Toshiba restore CD and reinstall the OS again!

  But note; boot from the restore CD will format the whole HARD drive and you will lose all files stored on the HARD drive. ?

  It is a drastic procedure but in my eyes he's the only one who could allows to solve this problem.
