    Half white makes me think that you have activated somehow another monitor (and no additional monitor is probably connected).

    Hi Bilipino,

    You have more than one display card? Try to connect your monitor to the another card and see if you can get the display.

  • iOS iPad 2 Why is mail the only application in 9.3.3 split-screen?

    When I slide in split screen, the only application that I get is e-mail, even when it is not open.

    I do not see in settings > general > multitasking either so I can't he turn on or off.

    I tried a reboot has opened two apps and tried to perform multiple tasks to them and got new mail.

    Support is no help, so I turn to you.

    Have to restart is a last ditch effort if a device doesn't respond. Several times that aims to realign service onboard iOS based problems, but is not a visit to start troubleshooting.

    The other option is to back up your iPad, restore your iPad to factory settingsand update the Firmware.

    Once the Firmware is updated, check the functionality of the onboard service.

    If the split screen work after that, restore your iPad from a backup and that your content and settings are then restored.

  • Satellite A200 screen remains black when you try to start

    Hi all

    My Toshiba Satellite A200 laptop computer no longer works, then everything started when I was playing a game, all of a sudden the screen turned blue with a tiny text written on it. I had to hold the power button for a few seconds to close, because nothing not happening on the computer. Then, I pressed the power button to open it. Everything was fine, until the Welcome screen. In this part, he wrote 'Welcome' but Vista left loading circle of it was not turning.

    After a few seconds, I decided to shut down the computer once again, so I hold the power button for the computer firm. Here's the problem: I tried to re-open it, but the screen remained black. Nothing was happening. The power light is blue, but not all computer activity. So I left it like that a few minutes then it closed and tried again, but it's the same thing. I tried to take it apart and noticed the card two memory was not entirely in its niche. I fixed it, but it does not solve the problem.

    I also tried to plug another screen on it, but this one was also black. So I handed the screen on his computer and tried to boot my laptop and it worked. He was the starter, but the first problem came, the Welcome screen was frooze it. So yes I close it up and then it's the same thing, the screen remained black.

    I don't think the problem is the screen, because as I said some time it goes to the Welcome screen. Also, I hear no welcome sound when the screen remains black as if the computer would simply not starts. And as I said earlier, I see no activity of the computer on the little light in front of the computer. And to the left of it, I see clearly that the computer is ON, because the power light is blue.

    That is my problem, the next time that the computer is able to start I'll try to boot mode SAFE, but until then, I don't know what to do. Please, help me.

    Thanks in advance,
    MrRoy

    EDIT:
    After the computer is turned off for about 30 minutes, I started and booted in safe mode. At this stage, I have locked my computer with the close button instead on the power button. Then I opened my computer and he started and the problem was solved. Now my laptop is open and working.

    So, if this happens to you:
    1. turn off your computer.
    2. wait about 30 minutes.
    3. start in safe mode
    4. close using istead of now off button power button closure.

    It should work.

    Finally, it does not work. I don't know why, but my computer did start after 30 minutes, but now it no longer works. Only, it will not start as I said later, with a black screen.

    The computer worked for about half an hour. I mean, I managed to start but after running a program, it just froze and I had to hold the power button to restart. I made about 3 or 4 times, and then he was simply the black screen again. I think the problem is my processor, maybe that it is damaged or something, would it possible?

    Because I see that the processor does not work when I try start it.

    So let's say that this is the case, would it be the symptoms of my computer?
    And if it's the processor, the only way to resolve this is to send it to a repairman or something, because I don't feel like it, I'd rather do it myself.

    But now, my computer is simply not starting, as I said in my previous post.

    Thanks in advance,
    MrRoy

I have turned it off manually (I know we're not really supposed to do, but I had no choice) and tried to turn it back on to the it, but there is nothing happening.

    I can hear it start about 2-5 seconds, then it's as if he won. I can still hear a slight noise hum (fan), but it is not from, and the screen remains black. Nothing lights up.
    I tried to cool, I tried to remove the battery, nothing works.
    I tried using F8 to repair, but is not answer either.
    I don't want to reformat it completely right now that I have docs and photos which I did not have time to put on the disk.

    Anyone would be able to help me with this? That's my working tool, so I'm kinda stuck with this problem.

    Hi Stephanew,
    as I recall it has an ati graphics card...

    but try this to get your machine to work:

    -pull out the hard drive to protect your data (Let's hope that there is no damage yet...)
    -take out the battery and try to start only with the power adapter > shoukld you see the toshiba on-screen logo > failure other components can be 'guilty '...

    -attach an external monitor to your computer and check if there is a visible image > no image at all?
    -check the memory, for this purpose, remove the memory and test if the satellite "buddies" > heard some of this? Yes?

    iasume the grafics card disappeared... see your certified partner...
    Let us know if this helped you.

  • Satellite P200D-139 - screen remains black

    Hello, Ive had my laptop for a few years and after leaving in my freezer for a few weeks on vacation, I went to turn it on and the laptop turned on and the lights came, but the screen remained black. The screen was not completely black she lights up very slightly, but nothing was visible at all (not even very thirsty)

    In the past, I encountered a situation where I had a red tinge to objects on my screen, but also red horizontal lines. This was never permanent and only occasionally happened.

    About my most recent problem involving the black screen, I tried taking the battery and holding the switch thing on, but also to take my ram out and put it back again. After that I took the ram out, I turned on the laptop and the screen shows red objects and flashes the screen loading and then black again. I don't know if it was because of the ram or just a coincidence.

    I'm completely stuck on the current situation and would be grateful for all the help I can get. Thank you!

    Hello

    If everything is clear: in your case I would like to connect an external monitor to the laptop. So that you can identify if the problem is related to the screen internal or graphics card.

    In both cases you need professional help, I think the something on the hardware needs to be replaced. Therefore, you must contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and fix it for you it's a little tricky.

    On the Toshiba page, you will find a list of ASP.

  • Why my cpu quits after about 30 seconds of connection!

    Why my cpu quits after about 30 seconds of connection to xp? This happens not once connected to the xp like 3 other users on the same processor, only when logged on as administrator. It is a virus that could be the cause? It will remain long enough to perform a system restore or a virus check.

    It is in Mode safe?

    Can log you in as a regular users and open an administrator command prompt without loading the profile?

    Start button--> RUN--> type:

    /noprofile of runas/user: Administrator CMD

    He should come and ask you the password for the account "administrator."  Enter it.  Then, it should open a new command prompt - but works as an administrator.  You can then use commands like:

    CD "\Documents and Settings.
    and
    Ren Administrator.old administrator

    To get into the right directory and rename the profile folder for 'Administrator' to 'Administrator.old '.  Then restart and try to log on as administrator again.

  • Screen remains black, while all buttons are light

    original title: serious problem with my computer!

    I'm trying to fix my computer because something is obviously wrong with it and I'm not very good with computers, so I don't really know what I'm doing, and I think I might have messed up even more now.

    Recently, I tried to back up my files on my d drive but he said he couldn't because my c drive was damaged so he told me I could fix it and I tried, but he says he couldn't when it is in use and told me to program it so that he could check it out when I start then my computer. Then I restarted my computer, and every time I restart my computer, it has a problem back on. The screen remains black then that all the keys are lit and then after a minute or two, it hangs, and then she did it again and again until I have press and hold the power button to turn it off. I have to finish by wait 5 minutes before turning on so it lights correctly, otherwise it will just do that again.

    Then he started toward the top of normal, of course I know what the disk check thing looks like now because what happens now, but before it has not then I thought it did not work and as a last resort, I wanted to wipe my hard drive clean because I tried everything I could, and I don't have the money to fix right now and probably won't for a while. So I followed all the instructions for the recovery of the system and none of the other stuff worked and I decided to go with my disk wiping hard completely clean and restore factory settings. I followed all the instructions and then it turns off my computer, trying to wake it up, so his restart of course, but he does what its been recently when it restarts and crashes.

    If I turn it off and wait a few minutes, then turn it on and I was really upset at that time here because I thought that it did not work. Its starts upward and there appears the disk check thing and it says system files verification on c: responding file type is NTFS. __Cannot volume open for access.__windows live has finished check the disc. then goes to the login screen I open a session, but then the screen is black and the only thing I see is my mouse. It was like it maybe 30 minutes or more, and I didn't know what was happening so I turned off and then tried to turn it on and it does the same thing next time. I thought that maybe when he crashed he screwed up the process, or perhaps checking file system on c drive messed up. So when I had the chance, he finally started upward and I connected again but this time on the user prompted and everything was still there but it was EXTREMELY slow, as it took maybe 10 minutes or more to open what anyone and it loaded really slow when I logged in. I finally made the thing about system recovery again after a few hours of waiting so he can keep loading, cause whenever I clicked it, it does not always work. And then it's the same thing all over again. He obviously never erased from my hard drive, so I probably * my computer even more, and then it was already * upward and it was a gift, so I would really like to fix so if someone can help me maybe I would really appreciate it!

    Hello

    Battery life varies depending on use and other factors.

    During tests, for example, Apple has reached 18 hours of battery life with the next use: 90 time checks, 90 notifications, 45 minutes of usage of the app and a workout of 30 minutes with Apple Watch Bluetooth music playback. Other examples of the life of the battery when using different are available here:

    If your watch is shorter battery life than would suggest examples of Apple that you should expect, try the following steps, which have helped to solve the problems of the battery life for some users:

    • If you have ever used the soft training and/or any third party fitness tracking workouts Records (for example, Strava) apps on your watch, check on your watch to see if there is currently activity paused in the any of these applications. If there is, put an end to this activity of this application on your watch (not on your iPhone).
    • Under earlier versions of the software, some users have reported problems with battery life in the framework using profiles and/or Exchange calendars. If you use an Exchange calendar, can help to one or more of the following:
      • Check your Exchange calendar for all items before today.
      • Delete / delete all old messages related to the prompt calendar Inbox (accept and refuse notifications).
      • Create a rule in your email account Outlook moves future all accept and reject responses as they are received, in a separate e-mail folder that will not sync with your iPhone and Apple Watch.
      • Consult your Exchange calendar to find errors.
    • Finally, it can help to remove all third-party applications on your watch and then monitor the performance of the battery after you have added back, one at a time. It is the same regarding complications of watch face.

    After trying the above steps, if your watch continues discover much shorter battery life than suggest examples of Apple you should expect, contact Apple support (mail service may be available) or make a Genius Bar reservation in order to have your watch checked, if recommended by Apple (warranty, if it qualifies):

    To check your warranty status (the serial number is on the back of your watch):
