• Satellite U505-S2970, brick load very hot

  Hello
  I just bought a Satellite U505-S2970 14.1 "laptop with Windows 7 Best Buy." I have loaded for the first time, and in doing so, the brick load got very, very hot. Not really hot, but warm. Is this normal? I'm new to Toshiba. All my other chargers mobile phone do not get this hot.

  Thank you

  Hi mate

  Well, what to say. You will always notice a hot power adapter.
  I have two laptops at home and in both cases the AC adapters are hot. They are not hot, but hot

  It is difficult to say what temperature should be ok, but the party doesn't have to be hot.
  Because I don t know how hot your adapter is, I highly recommend contacting a local ASP (certified partner) in your country for an AC adapter control.
  The adapter needs to be replaced if necessary

• Satellite M70-165: unit of CD/DVD can't read data DVDs - "not possible access to D:.

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite M70-165 equipped of a DVD unit MAST * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S (5.1.2535.0 driver version).
  After years of 1 and a half with no problems, a few days ago, I restore the operating system (Windows XP Home) through the Toshiba restart DVD.

  Since then, the CD/DVD unit can read DVD audio, CD, or movies, but when I open a DVD (DVD software) data it is said that "it is not possible to access to the D:\." and something like "does not correct" (I use an Italian version of Win XP so I have to
  translate the messages in English).

  All drivrs are regularly installed and there should, in theory, work very well.

  I am a user of entry level, and I don't really know what to do. I attended every single forum on the issue for the past few days, but nobody does
  could help me.

  I would be extremely grateful if someone could help.

  Thanks in advance!

  Pair phone to other devices such as headphones and a laptop ACER Vista successfully.

  Toshiba satellite environment is as follows:

  Ideas, sought after and some forums suggest to raise the security level, unsuccessfully, that and all the stuff in my bag (she holds a certain number).

  So my Iphone wife´s is all also detected but unable to pair as well. Suggestions please

  :-(

  Strange. I have European Satellite U500 and I can connect my LG phone successfully.

  Phone is detected automatically and the phone asked me to confirm the PIN. The PIN was shown on the screen of the computer laptop too. These two numbers are the same. I confirmed the PIN on the phone and the devices are automatically connected.
  After it, I've transferred all saved photos from the phone to the Satellite U500.

  I put t really understand what you're doing wrong. Open the help file for battery Toshiba BT if it pleases you and check if you can find help there.

• Unable to connect to my router satellite U505

  I'm having a problem with my Wi - Fi connection. I got new service installed at my place, with a password, every time that I try to connect after entering the password and details my lap top can't connect.

  My wife lap top is fine. My lap top connected successfully to all net Wi - Fi work in airports and hotels. I only have this problem in my house. Previously, I use to have the different internet provider and it was perfectly connected with no problem at all.

  My lap top is Toshiba Satellite U505 model. I tried to use different browsers Google chrome, fire fox, Explorer same result. One more thing when I connect my laptop through the barbed wire to the same router it works fine.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  > I'm having this problem only in my house. Previously, I use to have the different internet provider and > it was perfectly connected with no problem at all.
  There is no problem with your laptop if I understand correctly your Pentagon. I mean WIFI card work properly and described question isn't directly related question of Toshiba.

  Of course, there is a problem with the settings of the router. You have now a new router?
  Try disabling the WLAN security for a short period of time just to check if your laptop connects to the WIFI properly.

  Please post comments.

• Bluetooth for Satellite U505-S2960 module

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite U505-S2960, but not brings Bluetooth. I want to buy an internal module, I need to know which reference module is compatible

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy,

  Do you need an internal Bluetooth module or an external Bluetooth dongle is also an option? Latter would be less expensive and installation is easier too.

  I founded an interesting offer on Amazon for $ 12:

• Satellite A660 - do not find external DVD drive

  Hey guys. Newbie displaying in total despair of and needing help! I posted in other forums without success. I bought a Samsung SH-D162D DVD drive in a USB enclosure to connect to my Satellite A660 via USB.

  I can't get Windows 7 to find! When I plug in the USB cable, the ball comes up to say that it has been installed (sometimes), I can see it on for about 1 or 2 minutes then he falls. It is not listed in my hardware or anything. Its not found in disk management or my devices, so it is not a case to change the drive letter - I can't find the drive to change. I also tried to find upper and lower settings in regedit. Could not find them so couldn't remove them as suggested in other posts of this nature.

  It is set to master, the IDE connector and power connectors are very good. Its got to be a cause of problem of Windows 7 it comes very briefly. In the minute or 2 sound, I can't do anything with it. It crashes right although it will open and close. I've google it and can't find anything. Mainly of registry issues, but they did not help.

  Ive also connected to another laptop with XP and had no problems so I know the DVD Rom works very well and all the cables are ok. Ive tried all 4 USB ports on my laptop and also disabled all the parameters of energy. All with no luck. And I also all Windows 7 update.

  This is exactly what happens to the power out of the Cabinet.

  1. I connect the USB cord then turn on the enclosure.
  2 - I quickly click Start, and I can see the DVD Rom E player beside my computer laptop dvd rom.
  3 - the green bar above starts to fill to the top, from left to right and gets to half way then suddenly disappears icon of DVD Rom and makes the green bar.
  4. He then flashes up in computers laptops DVD Rom icon with a player of Local E drive, but only for a fraction of a second.
  5. sometimes a balloon comes up saying peripheral installation, then the installed device successfully... but not every time.

  And that's all. I'm at a total loss and the cant work, so any help is really appreciated!

  Hi Smee,

  So if you have already connected the external hard drive on another computer, and it worked correctly, it seems to be a driver or compatibility between your external DVD drive problem and and your Satellite A660

  It will be connected to the port USB then you tried to remove all the USB ports on the Device Manager? After that, you must restart your computer and the USB ports will be recognized automatically from the Device Manager. In addition, I would also try updating the chipset driver. New version, which you can download on the official website of Toshiba:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  Have you also tested other devices on your A660 if they work properly?

• Satellite U205: unable to write to DVDs

  Hello
  I recently bought a laptop Satellite U205. I can't write on any blank DVDs. The drive is a DVD optical drive and support writing on the blank DVD as well. I can read and copy DVDs on my drive hard, but not vice versa. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  It seems that your drive can read but not write DVD media.
  Are you sure that the installed driver should write (burn) on DVD s to 100%?

  This drive is installed in your laptop?
  Additional you should also know that every DVD burner is capable of burning each DVD.
  There is + and media. Some readers are able to manage only the media and others only the +

  In your case, I recommend you to check the disc for compatibility with the media

• SOLVED: Why don't Satellite 4090XCDT does not start with DVD-R/W drive?

  Hello
  as I said in the other thread that has already been closed, I bought a used Satellite phone who would not start of 3rd party DVD - RW (Quanta Storage SDW-042) included, even if Windows couldn't read well enough.

  I found out why, starting with the help of the user answers in the other thread.

  In the user manual, there is a description in the capitel on the configuration of the system about tconfig, which proved to be a valuable indication: HDD = Primary IDE (1F0H/IRQ14) (...), CD = secondary IDE (170 H/IRQ15). Compared to my desktop, it seems to me that two readers need to be masters on no. 1 and no. 2 cable, not as master and slave on the same cable from HARD drive. So, my CD-ROM would probably be master.
  Then I did the research further into the issue and found out, that there is no CD-ROM where select things cable if they are master or slave. Then I found in
  http://www.dschen.de/laptop_brenner/ a note in his Toshiba Satellite Pro 4290, seemed to be no Cable Select and his planned book on the CD (or DVD player, he wants to use) as a master.
  CSEL means that 47 Pin is connected to the Earth, which he did by applying a drop of Tin from Pin 47 to 49, pine, which is also Pin 47. I tried the same thing and disassembled the DVD drive that was in my notebook. (My record to disassemble my laptop and all editing again properly is now gone in 50 minutes). And know what, my Satellite 4090XCDT can now boot from the DVD-RW!

  To perform the task, I needed a screwdriver of the watchmaker to open the DVD RW (three live, then you need to insert a PIN to open the tray and see the back), a 12 Volt type iron pin solder for SMD and I ordered the strap of welding with a stereo microscope, so this task is not negligible. See the link mentioned to know what pins are bridged (sorry, the website is in German but the picture is clear: in the top row of pines, only you can see, the 2nd and the third from the right). And of course with a replacement part "scrap", you could give your laptop a second life, but you run a risk, because you may not know what you have, master or slave (for firmware or hardware), broken in any case, select cable - and one other Web site indicates that they looked up to 17 variants of firmware in exactly the same drive , depending on what laptop, it was intended for use.

  Nice display. Thank you very much.

  Hello

  What model you exactly (for example, I am very interested in Satellite A50-111). But anyway if your mobile is correctly installed since your recovery CD or DVD it should be no problem.

  Please check in Device Manager if there is some hardware problems with your DVD/CD drive. You have a DVD Super Multi drive and it is possible to burn them all.

  Have you installed a software burn? Have you tried to format the DVD - RW, DVD + RW and DVD - RAM?

• Satellite L855-B412 - which makes the DVD recovery to win 8.1

  I have Toshiba Satellite L855-B412 I bought last year that came with windows 8.
  I have upgraded to windows 8.1 through the windows store and then updated the derivers of the system for windows 8.1
  then I system backup on 2 DVD using the Toshiba system backup utility.

  When I restore the system of these DVD I get windows 8.1 or the old windows 8?

  Recovery media creator Toshiba does not create the image of an operating system recovery real but just copy original recovery image designed by Toshiba.
  With other words after using recovery discs, you will have same Win8 version as you guessed it with your new laptop.
