Portege R500 - Touchpad doesn't work on Windows 7

I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate but cannot get the touchpad to work.
Any suggestions for a fix?

Have you tested an external mouse as I already suggested?
You can try to install Value Added Package for another Portege series notebook. Just search a little bit on the Toshiba website.
In worst case you have to restore factory settings (preinstalled OS). There should the mouse working properly.

    Hi candy, glad that you found that Shockwave Flash Object, it works with the Flash files and is very important
    The NPSWF files that you said are not there, those are for the Firefox browser or Chrome or some other browser. If you use Firefox and want the Flash Player for that, then close all of your browsers so you are only looking at your Desktop.
    Click on this Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop. Then RUN it from your Desktop, and after it is finished Installing, Restart your computer.
    Then Using Firefox go to the plug-ins and find a SWF vs 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is Enabled. This is just like the Shockwave Flash Object for Internet Explorer, but it is the one that works with Firefox.
    Let me know if that is what you wanted to do. If you don't use Firefox, but Chrome or another browser, then this will work for that one also.
    If you don't use another browser, then don't do any of this. I just thot maybe you did and that is why you were concerned that the NPSWF files were not there.
    Thanks,

  • Fn + F6 to lock/unlock touchpad doesn't work with Windows 10

    Hello,i have G580 i'v done an upgrade from 8.1 to windows 10so i'v have a small issue with touchpad :Fn+F6 to lock touchpad doesn't work when it was working as well in 8.1scrolling line at touchpad doesn't work to. so how to fix it, or will lenovo release drivers for windows 10 as she did for previous windowsis getting newer driver from elantech or synaptic website will resolve the problem ? cuz i did install 8.1 driver elantech and keyboard+mouse stopped working before reseting windows 10 upcoming driver. Best regards.

    I have the same problem. Untilthey update the ELAN driver I go in to Settings, Devices, Mouse and Touchpad, Additional Mouse Options and disabel  the ELAN driver. You can still turn it back on with Fn F6, but you have to go through the same steps again to turn it off. The nice thing is, it doesn't go back to enabled after awhile when you havent' been using the laptop.for awhile as it did before. The bad side is it takes about half a dozen key strokes to get to he disable. Hope this helps for now.

  • Portege M750 - Tablet doesn't work after Windows 7 upgrade

    Got an Windows 7 upgrade through Toshiba for my M750 tablet pc. Everything went smooth and seems to be working, except (!) the tablet functions. The pen is not recognized. Touch a little bit, but unpredictably.
    Please advise what I can do.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Are all devices recognized properly in device manager? Have you checked this?
    As far as I know you have to install or update the Dual Touch driver. This dirver is for the Digitizer and touch screen model. It enables the functionality that the Tablet PC Pen or finger can be used as a pointing device.
    You can download this driver on the Toshiba website.
    Check this!!

  • Satellite PRO A200-1S1 with Windows 7 x32. Touchpad doesn't work

    Hi everybody
    I Installed Windows 7 on my Satellite Pro A200-1S1, retrieved all the drivers on Toshiba site, everything works fine (less than the web camera that didn't work even with previous s.o. XP or Vista...). But my Touchpad doesn't work at all.... No Fn+F9, no driver, nothing works. And in my control panel-device manager seems to be everything ok.
    Any suggestion?

    Hi
    Never had any problems with the touchpad using Win 7 32bit.
    I recommend installing VAP (value added package) and Flash Card Support Utility to get the FN button functionality. Then you could try FN + F9
    Both tools can be downloaded from Toshiba European driver page there you should choose Sat L500 series because I didnt find mentioned Win 7 software for A200 series.
    Check also the touchpad drivers which I found in L500 download area (Alps a Synaptics)

  • Touchpad doesn't work - HP Pavilion DV4 - 2120ca

    Re: Pavilion DV4-2120ca
    Touchpad doesn't work after cleaning out the dust collection in the fan, heat sink area.  New Therma paste was applied.  
    Both the keyboard & touchpad were the 2 things that didn't work following reassembly.  The keyboard didn't work but able to use USB wireless mouse.  Couple days ago the replacement battery finally arrived, installed and charged for 12 hours.  After restart, the keyboard works as it should. 
    Unfortunately, touchpad still doesn't work. The light switch above the touchpad works, clicking on it turns white & amber but any movement scrolling doesn't work.
    We tried the following, but unsuccessful
    double tapping top left corner
    Hard Reset 
    Uninstalled ALPS & Synaptics -- reinstalled , restarted
    Updated Windows, HP, BIOS, Drivers
    Don't recall during reassembly if touchpad has a cable or connector.  If so, perhaps worth try to disconnect & reconnect to ensure correct connection.
    What do u advise to try next?
    Thank u

    Did you connect the ribbon cable for the Touchpad. Often times there is one for the keyboard and one for the touchpad separately. Hopefully you have not damaged the ribbon cable. Just make sure you push it all the way in and seat it properly.

  • Synaptics touchpad doesn't scroll after Windows 10 upgrade

    I installed the Windows 10 upgrade today (From Windows 7) and now the scroll function on my touchpad doesn't work and it's driving me CRAZY not to be able to scroll!  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Synaptics driver without success. Help! Thank you!

    Hi: That happened to me too on my HP 350 G1. On mine, I went into the control panel, and I changed the view to Large Icons (because it is easier for me to find stuff that way). Then I found a Synaptics Luxpad control panel icon. I clicked on that and found that the scrolling feature was unchecked. I checked it, hit apply and close and now I can scroll again.

  • "Email me" doesn't work in Windows

    Has anyone found that the "Email me" button doesn't work on Windows machines? I have just been told by one or two visitors to my website (www.aroundthebusch.com) who use Windows that the buttons didn't work.

    It may be a Flash Security issue... upload SWF to server, open it to browser from there and try your links again...
    Here´s one SWF exported from indesign (links to email at page 3):

  • AT-AO-10 doesn´t work with Windows 2000

    I have an AT-AO-10 board that doesn’t work with Windows 2000. I have reserved two IRQs for legacy devices (non plug and play) in BIOS. The AT-AO-10 has got assigned these IRQs, a DMA and a base address that are free, and there aren’t any hardware conflicts, but the board doesn't pass the MAX's text.
    In Windows 'Information System', the board is shown in 'Forced hardware', but I don’t know that is a problem.
    If the board is unplugged, error messages are the same.

    Hello;
    You didn't mention what version of the NI-DAQ driver you are using over there. Anyway, my suggestion to you is to uninstall the NI-DAQ driver you have installed, remove the board, reboot the machine, download and install the latest NI-DAQ version (6.9.3) from NI web site.
    Try the installation with the new driver, and if that is still not working, the best bet is to try the same installation on a different machine to double check if the hardware is not defective.

  • Application Restart and Recovery APIs doesn't work for windows services

    I am using the Application Restart and Recovery mechanism (provided in Windows API Code Pack for Microsoft.NET Framework) to collect some information (i.e. stack information when there's an unhandledexception)  before my windows service crash down.
    It works well for windows form applications, but the callback method wouldn't be called if the host is a windows service. 
    I have checked the article: https://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/subscriptions/downloads/cc303708
    But it doesn't specify clearly whether it works for a windows service. It seems that the recovery will only be activated when the user interacts with the error dialog of Windows Error Reporting (clicking "close" on the dialog, for example).
    So I am wondering is my guess right that the Application Restart and Recovery mechanism doesn't work for windows services. Or is there a better way to meet my requirement? 

    I would suggest trying ARR if that's what you want to use.  The restart portion won't work, but it doesn't need to as if you fail out of your service, the Windows service controller will handle recovery (up to and including restarting your service).
     You configure those recovery actions either through code or one of the built in administrative tools for services such as services.msc.  
    DebugDiag/ADplus and similar tools ultimately do use built-in APIs; you don't need to add anything external to collect debugging information.  You do however have to write a good deal of code to do somethings.  It's pretty simple to use the unmanaged
    function that I pointed out before and
    MiniDumpWriteDump to write a minidump when you hit an unexpected error(the dbghelp.dll that comes installed with Windows has it so you don't need anything additional installed).  You can even write a basic debugger that literally debugs a process using
    only kernel32 functions (see
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms679301(v=vs.85).aspx if you're interested).

  • Satellite A210 (PSAEG) - Microphone doesn't work on Windows 7 64bit

    Hello, the micro doesn't work under windows 7 64 bit, the driver I'm using is Windows Vsta 64 bit. The volume is set up maximun and so is the amplification but no way to make it work with skype or toshiba camera assistant software.
    Can anyone help me?
    thank you

    Hi Largo09,
    Usually you have to install the webcam and sound driver to get the microphone working. The microphone is a part of webcam
    As you wrote, Satellite A210 is not Windows 7 64bit supported so the only option you have are Vista 64bit drivers
    In my opinion you should check if Microphone is enabled in Windows sound settings. There you can also enable Microphone boost, that can increase the microphone volume.

    Hi DJ2512,
    I understand you have a Deskjet 2512 that is not able to open the Printer Assistant, it opens to text pages. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will definitely do my best to assist you!
    From what you've described, it sounds like your Printer Assistant is opening to a Notepad page. I'd suggest that you follow this HP Printer Assistant Opens with a Script Error or in Notepad document to get the issue resolved.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!!
