A30 and Intel 2200BG now working with Scotch tape!!

I searched and read, and didn't believe what I read, but with the aid of a little sliver of Scotch tape over pins 11 and 13 I am up and running.
For 3 weeks I have fought this one, Intel support have only replied once to tell me to download the latest SW version, which I had already told them I had.
I mistakenly was under the impression that the pin assignment for Mini PCI cards had been agreed and was standard. So who is rocking the boat Intel or Toshiba? My initial impression is Intel as a search for "2200BG" throws up many cases of problems and not all Toshiba models.
However I suggest anyone who is having problems with the 2200BG Mini PCI card try the high tech bit of scotch tape method first.
BTW the wireless switch or the fn + F8 still does not work.

Hi Alison
The fact is that this Intel card is a part of Centrino concept and many notebook producers use this at own units. A few days ago I was I electronic store and I have looked into device manager of many notebooks (different manufacturers) and almost all of them have this card.
The fact is that notebook producers can not do much. In my opinion Intel should test and check functionality at first. If you check Intel download page there are many newer drivers for this card and I believe that Intel try to make it better. We will see.

A30 and intel 2200BG miniPCI adapter

Hi!
I've read the same topics on this forum but didn't find an answer.
I've installed wifi adapter(intel 2200BG) to my A30 everything seams OK but it says hardware switch off the switch is on but the green light stays off and the wireless doesn't work.
I've found a hint to cover 11 and 13 pins,made everything following the instruction, but nothing happend. It still doesn't work.
Any hints?

Hi,
I had the same problem at our company when I wanted to install a Wifi card!!
I called the tosh hotline and the hotline guy told me that I have to attach the ends of wireless LAN connector cables. The white aerial cable should be attached to top-most connector (nearer the back side of the computer), the black aerial cable to the bottom-most connector.
After that procedureit works! Also you have to install the Wifi tools from https://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com at the driver downlo section!

Hi cueball819,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps to try if your iPods aren't recognized by iTunes or Windows:

I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??

I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore? It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store? Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

A30 Modem Problem - Does it work with XP SP2 ?

HAS ANYONE GOT AN A30 (P4 3Ghz) INTERNAL MODEM WORKING WITH XP-SP2 ?
I've recently upgraded the hard disk in my A30 and installed XP SP2 and all the latest Windows updates and found most of the latest working drivers, but the last thing I'm trying to get to work is the modem driver.
Device mangler says the Toshiba Software Modem is installed - i.e. no driver / hardware conflicts etc - but if I try to query the modem from device mangler it cannot communicate and complains of a hardware conflict.
Similarly if I try to use any comms programs to get to the modem they complain 'unable to open COM3 - insufficient resources'
I've tried un-install & re-install different drivers from UK & Canada tosh support sites. The UK ones don't work at all, the Canada ones give the above symptoms.
The UK drivers worked with XP SP1, so my guess is there is a driver issue with XP SP2 - any one else tried it ?

Hi NA-A30-1, have you been able to find a driver yet to work with A30 and XP SP2 or resolve your modem problem otherwise?
I have a very similar problem. After a reinstall on a new hard disk and SP2, I still can't get the modem drivers recognised...
When I run the Modem Driver Installation program it runs for about 5 minutes and then closes as if everything could be ok. When I go to Device Manager, there is still a yellow question mark next to Modems (says "PCI Modem" with a yello question mark sign)...
I tried to search for the inf file, everywhere I could think of but until now, nothing seems to be recognised as the correct driver for this modem...
It would be extremely helpful if someone who has made progress can explain how they got around this problem.
Thank you.

I have lightroom 4 and it doesn't work with d4s raw images? what can I do?

i have lightroom 4 and it doesn't work with d4s raw images? what can I do?

That model begin to be supported only in the very latest version of Lightroom, version 5.4. You will either need to upgrade Lightroom, or else use the latest version of the free Adobe DNG converter (version 8.4) to create digital negative copies of your raw images. Then you can import those DNG files into the Lightroom that you have now. The choice is yours.

Chapters now working with all export options

iMovie '09 chapters used to work only with Share > iDVD. Don't know when it has been changed, but it appears that Apple has quietly improved the feature and chapters are now transfered with all export options (Apple presets and Export using Quicktime). I guess it happened with Snow Leopard.
So now it's possible to create higher quality DVDs with chapters. iDVD preset scales all videos to 960x540 (in case of 16:9) in interim file. Then iDVD has to scale it to correct NTSC or PAL size, and at least in case of PAL the output isn't very nice. There are aliasing artifacts, as vertically 540 lines have to be upscaled to 576 lines. Now it's possible with Export using Quicktime to output the video from iMovie in correct frame size with chapters and make DVDs with much better quality from that.
With SD source material you still lose a field, but from HD it's now easier to get higher quality DVDs. iMovie scales progressive video very well. From 720P content iMovie output in both 960x540 and 1024x576 sizes is really good, but iDVD can't scale the first one so well.

There is a bug. MacElk found it. His post is here:

My projects now export w. chapters intact. I file a bug report w. Apple.

1) I have multiple accounts at the iTunes store and none are now associated with my purchases...I think because passwords have been associated with various id’s and I can’t log in and access those purchases. I want to get back to being able to use one id and password and be able to access those purchases.
2) When I upgraded my iPhone 3gs, to the latest version 5.0.1 (9A405), is when I noticed that i couldn’t update my applications. There are two names/accounts on the phone and prior to the update there was just the one. I have tried entering every conceivable password that I have ever used and get the incorrect password error every time. The apps on the iPhone are apparently associated with several/different accounts. I just want to get everything back to the way it was. One id and one password with purchases associated with just one account that can be updated on my computer as well as my iPhone.

Hello sadiepix,

Delete the pairing and then re-pair the devices.
There are no supported methods to downgrade the iOS.

The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size. How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with them?

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

There is nothing to do, unless you buy a new computer.
Mac OS 10.5.8 or later is required.
