How to print a selection of an image in photoshop CC, I have problems because in the print window does not display the full image and the printed only a section of what I SELECTED
Hi jodepepevalentin,
In the print menu, check "scale to fit media" under the Position and size of the device and then check out.
If you want the area selected for printing, check "Print selected area" under the Position and size and specify the size.
Kind regards

After installation, the main Thunderbird window does not open (send emails)
Thunderbird has been an automatic upgrade this morning (02/05/14).
Now, when I open it, it opens and I can even see the preview of the main screen when I hover over the icon in my launch, but the main window does not open.
If I right click to compose a message, I can, and it does not send. But I didn't see the main screen.
I closed it, closed the process of thunderbird. I moved my profile and reinstalled Thunderbird.
Same problem ever time.When I try to open the registry, it says it's corrupt. But CCCleaner does not seem to fix. Don't know what to do next.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

Satellite P300-28th does not start - windows does not load
I bought Toshiba P300 28th last week. I spent Vista business successfully in Windows XP Professional with provided Toshiba DVD. Update Windows with Windows Update. After 3 days, laptop turns off suddenly, and because Windows does not start, it in fact does not start.
When I press the power button / stop, it turns on, shows "Toshiba Leading Innovation" logo image option and "2", "press 12...", and it hangs and stops.
I tried pressing F2 and F12, nothing happened.I can not access the boot menu.
I put the Toshiba Recovery CD, the hard drive does not work. Recovery disk does not start, despite earlier I remember put boot CD/DVD at the forefront in the Boot Options to Boot Menu.
I checked everything, power cable, took the battery in and replace after 3 hours, tried to turn on the portable power, without battery cable. Did not help.
Don't know what to do?
Your help is very appreciated.
Hello Fiona
If you are unable to enter the BIOS (F2) at startup settings there must be some serious hardware problem.
I recommend to contact your local dealer where you bought this laptop and ask for help, or you can contact Toshiba service provider directly.What you have tried to do is good but if laptop doesn t allow you to enter parameters of the BIOS something wrong here, and you need professional help.

Re: Tecra S3 - new 250 gb Sata hdd - windows does not recoginse
Hi all
I have a tecra S3-PTS30-E, which came from the company, I work for which was no longer necessary.
I replaced the current 40 GB with two different - hdd
Western Digital 250 GB WD2500BPVT
Toshiba 120 GB - MK1252GSX
I tried both separately and windows XP pro service pack 3 will not recognize either.
I have downloaded the driver sata toshiba Web site and installed via F6 at startup, windows asks you what driver, windows 2000 or XP, I click on XP and you enter, windows continues until advising so none found HDD
I also tried to download drivers intel after searching other threads, and it does not work through floppy.
I also added the drivers toshiba XP ISO using nlite to create a disk slipstream and while xp is loading the disc, I noticed 'pilot toshiba raid' being installed. Same no result no hard drive found.
Can anyone help?
Thank you

According to the specifications on this page:
http://reviews.CNET.com/laptops/Toshiba-Tecra-S3-s411td/1707-3121_7-31556311.html
Your laptop's Ide interface, as far as I know on the old IDE interface there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits, which means that the laptop can only manage hard disks up to 128 GB.

Satellite A100 PSAA5A Windows does not recognize ethernet controller
Hello
I'm having a problem with a PSAA5A-01H00T A100 running Win XP sp2.
Windows does not recognize an ethernet controller, so the wireless NETWORK card does not work, even if the wired connection is.
I tried to install the latest WLAN drivers on the support site (two of them), does not. Windows insists that the correct drivers are not installed.I suspect a hardware problem and I have the user on an external wireless NETWORK card, but I would appreciate any idea that you guys can provide.
Thank you.
Hi mate
What Ethernet controller is not recognized? WLan or LAN?
You have a few unknown devices in Device Manager?
If so, then a critical driver is missing, and so the controller is not recognized correctly.You n t know what LAN or Wlan chip you have and what driver is needed?
Check this box:How to identify an unknown device (e.g. LAN wireless module)?

I'm sorry, but you have not answered my questions.
(1) on the last stage Setup lets you start Firefox, if you keep all of the checkbox "Launch Firefox now", turns on Firefox when you click on "Finish"?
(2) how did you launch Firefox when you receive the error message? How do you 'by clicking on the freshly installed target Firefox.exe?
(3) what is the exact error message? (Post a screenshot if you cannot re-type precisely). Text you have posted it lacks an ending quotation mark and does not resemble any message I know.

Satellite A215 S6816 won't mode BIOS and Windows does not load
Hello
I'm helping a friend to determine what the problem could be on his laptop satellite A215 - S6816 Windows does not load on start up and it says "press F2 for Setup, press F12 for the boot device selection menu" but niether one of these options works no matter what I do.
I tried them on start up but nothing happens. It will be not just to enter mode BIOS or the menu. It will say please wait or entering the menue, but yet again, nothing happens.
What else can I try to enter the menu, either to get the system to get windows to load? This could be a motherboard problem? Hard drive problem?Thanks in advance.
Hello
If you are unable to access the BIOS, or to load the Windows operating system, and then a serious hardware problem is present.
Eventually he s a motherboard related question that means it could be a faulty motherboard or just a small part of the motherboard as a ROM chip for example.
I doubt this can be fixed without help the ASP.There is thus only one real solution. go to ASP. Guys must verify the simple parts to determine what part is affected.
Good luck

Equium M40X: I get to the banner of Toshiba, but Windows does not start
When I start my 2 year old Toshiba Satellite M40X, I get to the banner of Toshiba, but Windows does not start. I tried using the recovery CD and it does not either.
Any suggestions as to what could be the problem?
Hello
What do you mean with the banner of Toshiba? Did you mean the Toshiba splash screen that appears at the begging of the boot?
Equium M40X successfully passed this screen?
If the laptop is unable to switch to the home Toshiba screen then I presume that the BIOS has detected a hardware problem.
In this case primarily the motherboard failsBut if the laptop is able to spend the Toshiba start screen, the motherboard must be ok and only a 3rd device malfunction as HARD drive could cause this problem.
