Do I need Safari Power Saver if OS X 10.10.2 already installed in MacBook Air? If not, why do I keep getting pop-ups inviting me to download it?

See summary-it says it all.

The Safari Power Saver isn't a download; it's a built-in feature. It can be turned off from the Advanced tab of Safari's preferences.

What is Safari Power Saver and why does it keep popping up?

On many sites I get a popup asking me to activate or install Safari Power Saver. I sometimes close the popup, more often just leave the site. Is there any danger to clicking ok? Is there any reason to do this? Is there any way to avoid this without turning off popups everywhere?
Thanks!
Stan

Thanks! I still don't understand the concept of "saving power" in this context. Does that relate to a laptop running on battery, and some popups consume more battery power? Or does this refer to CPU capacity? I have never had any issue that I know of in these areas. I would understand the warning if it cautioned me about insufficient bandwidth, but that doesn't seem to apply here. In any case, am glad to find that this is a feature and not a bug.

Is the safari power saver plug in pop-up legitimate?

In an iMac I don't have a battery but I've heard that I can reduce heat and fan operation
Can someone explain me please what to do and how ?

If its a feature that you do not feel is relevant in your setup, you can turn it off in Safari > Prefernces > Advanced.

Power save plug in failure

I'm trying to watch sky tv on my macbook pro via sky go and am able to watch one episode. when I try to watch anything else I get safari power save plug in failure notice.
I have tried disabling the plug in but it still will not let me watch content.
The only thing that lets me watch anything else is restarting the mac.

P30: I need a 32 bit version of toshiba power saver installer

thank you for your support :)
i am actually talking about the toshiba power saver for P30 for windows xp, driver installer is 32bit.
however, the sofware insatller setup.exe is 16bit, you can notice it by reading it's description with windows os.
of course, if you disable 16 bit support, you can't install toshiba power saver anymore.

PCI-GPIB does not like returning from computer power-save mode. I need to restart the application. Uggh! Customer not happy.

It seems volatile memory is lost on the PCI GPIB Card. When the system returns from power-save, I cannot get to my GPIB instruments. I have to close the application and restart it. I've tried unregistering and reregistering the gpib globals and resetting the device interfaces (reissuing the ibdev command) without luck. I am using Visual Basic 6, but I also get the Measurement and Automation Explorer to fail in the same way, so I don't think it is my development environment.

Can you change your power save settings? What operating system
are you running?
Also, some BIOS's have options for power save. For example, recent
IBM's can be set to maintain power to all peripherals, or only to main
memory. Of course, you would want it to maintain power.
I suspect the GPIB board and its driver are completely unable to
handle power save operation. It probably was never considered while
it was being designed.

Satellite Pro L20: Need Power Saver Utility

Please can you let me know where I can download the Power Saver utility for a Satellite Pro L20?
I have tried to install a copy of the software but am not sure if it is for an L20 as it crashes
at the end of the install, and when I try to open Toshiba Power Saver in the control panel it says
it is not running, but there is no option for in the Power Schemes list.
Many Thanks
Martin Dawkins

Does the L20 only use the standard Windows XP 'Power Options' for power management then?
I wonder why they did not install their own power management software as well as that
normally has more options for extending battery life.

Toshiba Power saver may be the problem

My Satellite A665-S6050 has had all of the symptoms you read about in these forums;
crash, freeze, hung, locked, BSOD, Windows crash errors, etc.
I bought the laptop new a couple years ago and both love it and hate it when it exhibits
its freezing behavior. This is the intel I-3, 4 GB ram, Windows 7(64 bit) version. Really nice
when it's running normally.
I have watched and read through hundreds of posts throughout these forums since my purchase.
I have never sent the laptop back to Toshiba. Primarily because I've been able to force power off
then on, go to safe mode, schedule a disk scan on the next power up, reboots normally and I'm good
for who knows how long.
Following suggestions you can read in these forums, I have upgraded the Intel HD graphics display driver.
I install Windows updates every time they come available(auto update is enabled). I've updated the
Toshiba bios. I've updated Firefox every time it is available(my favorite browser). Updated java and
flash(again automatic updates). Some user settings that I've changed; I've disabled sleep mode(set it
to 'never' under 'advanced power settings) in every power scheme I have. I only use 'High Performance'
power scheme(plan). I have the setting for turning off the hard drive set to 'never'. My rational for doing
this is there is just too much going on under Windows 7, all the time. You never know what's running in the
background. Many times as the laptop freezes and or Windows tries it's best to recover, I get a strong feeling
that the hard drive has shut off! Especially, when Windows is trying to save a dump but can't because it can't
access hd0(hard drive)(I have to force power cycle off/on to recover).
This brings me to my current state of this troubleshooting saga. The last time the laptop froze, I was watching
streaming video in one Firefox window and had a slide show playing in another Firefox window(2 windows, not
2 tabs). Then in the lower right corner I get the Toshiba power saver notification that it is shutting down the
optical drive. It goes away on it's own in about 10 seconds. But immediately everything gets real slow until every
freezes. Windows tries to save a dump but can't. Windows tries to reboot itself but can't. Shows me a screen to
modify the boot list because the hd0 is not available. So, as so many times before I have to hold the power
button down for force power off. Wait a few, then power on, do my thing with safe mode, check disk, etc.
Power up and boots normally. Runs great for who knows how long. Right now as I type this, I have a audio CD
in my optical drive with Windows Media player set to 'replay' continuously. This I hope will prevent the 'Toshiba
power saver' from getting triggered because the optical drive is not idle and therefore won't shut off the hard
drive too! I have no idea how I can prove that 'Toshiba Power saver' is causing these freezes, crashes, lock ups,
etc. But at least if I can keep the optical drive in use and therefore prevent the 'power saver' from kicking in
maybe I can eliminate that as a possible cause of the freezes.
I am really disappointed to read so many Toshiba owners sending their computers to Toshiba service
hoping and praying for resolution but getting no satisfaction in the end. I love my Toshiba and I'll keep it.
I am a recreational user. Don't need to save power. When I use my computer, I want it to function as
powerful as possible until I intentionally perform a normal Windows shutdown.
My employer supplies me with a laptop (different brand). It has Intel I-5 chip, 3 GB ram Win XP Pro..
I run that computer full speed 9 -10 hours a day and I may have to reboot maybe once every other week.
Not bad considering the abuse I put it through. I would hate to have to rely on this Toshiba for work. I
don't think it could stay fully operational for that period of time.
Please Toshiba, tell me how I can help with the troubleshooting of this seriously pervasive problem on
so many of your computers. Is there an event log I can provide? Windows dump files(when they do get
saved)? Help me help you resolve this problem and satisfy hundreds of your customers.
Thank you in advance for your time.
Doug

Jerry,
It happened again this afternoon. This is the first time my system froze since the last time
I reported here in the forum. And just like I reported earlier, Toshiba Power Saver turned off
the optical drive power, I saw the pop-up in the lower right corner to notify me of the event.
I had Toshiba 'PC Health Monitor' running and minimized. I clicked on the icon to restore it
to the desktop. It displayed as expected. The hard drive graphic looked normal and spinning
as usual. I clicked on the graphic of the spinning hard drive and expected 'Power Options' to
display. Instead my desktop went away(all icons, system tray, system notification area, launch
pad, etc), everything gone. The graphic of the spinning hard drive stopped spinning. I tried a
CTL+ALT+DEL and got a new pop-up from Windows that it couldn't respond and I had 2 options;
press ESC or hold the power button down to force power and a shutdown. Which is what I eventually
did.
Powered up, went to safe mode, scheduled disk check on the next restart. Disk check runs and
finds no problem. System runs normally again.
As far as finding these events in the Windows logs using 'Event viewer', is not going to help.
I know exactly what time this all took place. I just can't find any event log showing that it took
place. There's a small gap in the time stamps just before the event until a few minutes after the
event. Then I see a mixture of 'errors' and 'information' events after the power on and restart
but nothing specifically addressing the hard drive before the restart.
I see an event log; "Previous shutdown was not expected". I'm sure that's not what your asking
to see. I don't know if it would be possible to trace the 'Toshiba Power Saver' but that may be
the only way I could prove my point that it is shutting off power to both the optical drive and
the hard drive at the same time.
Is there a way to disable or remove Toshiba Power Saver without causing a more serious problem?
Thank you in advance for your time and expertise.
Doug.

My Andoid Devices wil not wake up my printer from Power Save Mode

I have an HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw istalled as a wireless network printer. I have various computers with XP and Windows 8 operating systems that wake up the printer from Power Save mode without problems. I also can print wirelessly from my Windows 8 phone. The problem arises when I try to print from my Android devices. I have installed the HP All-In-One Remote App from the Android Store and they seem to have installed correctly. They recognise the network printer, tell me that it is Power Save mode but are unable to wake it up. Can anyone help with this one please?
The Andoid version on the Tablet is 4.2.2
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello Jerends and thank you for your attention to my printer problem. My printer already has a fixed IP address so no need to go down that road. I managed to get around the problem by deleting the HP All in One App from my Android devices and replacing it with the HPePrint App. It's not perfect but does the job.
Thanks again.

Receiving error message when trying to install Toshiba Power Saver

Recently toshiba power saver stopped working - I removed it and redownloaded it from this website, now whenever I try to run the install i get a "unable to machine id" message and the install stops.
First time posting here so If i'm on the wrong forum or you need anything else apologies in advance.

Hi there,
where did youve downloaded the powersaver? Maybe you downloaded the wrong one for your machine. Its absolutely important to download EXACTLY that software which fits your machine type.
When downloading stuff from toshiba websites you have to keep an eye on the version of your machine (e.g. Satellite A100-552 -> download the software for type "552" of the Satellite A100 series).
This sometimes resolves many errors and clarify some not very nice situations.
Please, more details on your problem. :)

"Entering Power Save Mode"

Hi guys. I have an HP desktop and a Dell SR2320L Monitor. It was working fine until a few months back. I was out of town, came back last week and now every time I start my PC it just stays there "Entering Power Save Mode". I tried almost everything researching a solution for the problem but just won't work. Is there a way to check if the cable is the problem or the monitor or anything else? Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.
Ankur

Hi Ankur,
Monitor may enter in power saving mode when it does not get the enough power for its operations. If monitor is the cause, you may try to re-seat the monitor cable and ensure the connections are secure. You may also try to swap the ends of cable and check if the issue persists. Another step you may try is to use a good known cable and see if the issue persists. If it does, as a last resort you may try to reset monitor to factory defaults. For more information on this, you may refer to manual of monitor: http://bit.ly/10ErgRX
Another possible cause of the same issue might be video drivers of your computer. You might need to uninstall and re-install the video drivers and may check the power options in operating system. You might need to check the HP website for download and installation of video drivers (relevant to the system model).
Please share the findings.

Power Save Mode - how to disable

My new Pavilion laptop (model # 17-e123cl) is connected to an external monitor. When I fold down the laptop screen the power saver mode kicks in and the computer goes off. I want it to stay on so I can place my wireless keyboard on top of the Pavilion and use the big external monitor. I was able to do this on my old Gateway but apparently not on this HP.
Is there a way to disable the power saver mode when it is closed so the computer will keep running and I can use the external monitor?

Hello gary,
Please go to the Options dropdown and choose Edit and remove your Serial # from your post.
Instead, it is more helpful to give your model number and operating system.
What you need to do is go into "Power Options/Advanced settings/Power buttons and lid" and change what happens when you shut the lid.
Here is a video from Microsoft on how to do it.
Hope it helps.

POWER SAVER won't run! Satellite A105

Please read this very carefully, as I have tried to make this as detailed as possible. I have had this problem before, and when I installed the new BIOS driver, it fixed itself. I am not so lucky this time. Also, please AVOID recommending to use my restore CD, because I know it is possible to fix this problem without it, and the restore CD is the easy/convenient answer on how to fix this.
Ok so I just installed the new BIOS software, and now my TOSHIBA Power Saver will not run. I am using a Satellite A105-S4284 on Windows XP SP2. When I boot the computer, I get this message:
TPSODDCtl.exe - Ordinal Not Found
The ordinal 21 could not be located in the dynamic link library TPSMainCtl.dll.
OK
I know this refers to the power saver, but I do not know what to do about it.
Additionally, I have searched other forums on this issue. When I open the Control Panel and switch to classic view, the TOSHIBA Power Saver icon is there. I double click it, and I get this message:
Cannot open, as "TOSHIBA Power Saver" is not running.
In order to run this, Please open "Power Options" in the control panel, then choose "TOSHIBA Power Saver"from the "Power Schemes" list box in the "Power Schemes Page"
OK
I open the power options, and the toshiba power saver scheme is already chosen. I tried applying a different one and switching back, but this did not help.
I tried reinstalling both the Power Saver AND the common modules from the TOSHIBA drivers website, and that also did not help. I tried uninstalling the Power Saver all together, and I get this error message:
Unable to locate the installation log file 'C:\Program Files\TOSHIBA\Power Saver\uninst.isu'. Uninstallation will not continue.
I opened up the Power Saver folder in the above location, and there are two files: TPSTrace (a plain text file) and TPwrSetup.$$$ (note: the '$' are not errors, thats what it says). The plain text file contains this message:
A Fatal error has occured. This program will be terminated. Code: 0x45A Location: TPSDel.cpp(230)
Please help! Thanks in advance for everyone's time!

ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah !
You are funny and very fast in defending Toshiba, but not giving a solution - the forums are supposed to be for users to help each other and that is why I asked if they did fix it or found a solution - because I DID NOT!
1. I have not fixed it yet - I do not have the time to try it as I spend most of the days (all of them) trying to bring some cash at home, as I am not a employee, but a self-employed.
2. my system works very well - thank you and if Toshiba Power saver gives so many problems it means that it is a 'critical' install on a Windows environment
3. I am not blaming Toshiba for this problem, but I am blaming Toshiba for not doing anything to 'help' to fix it
4. you cannot force a user to re-install at factory settings for several reasons:
a. if you do that you will have a system dated 2004! and I mean you will have to do a re-install (which means loosing all your setting the way you like - that is why one buys portable computer!)
b. re-install XP SP3, re-install all your programs, re-load all your files and folders the way you work with it every day and I work with 20 to 25 files at once and the browser usually opened on about 30/35 tabs and it is not easy to reset it the way I work faster and produce - all hardware drivers, Toshiba updates ...
c. then after you spent a full working day (which I do not have) you may find that the Toshiba Power Utility stopped to work again - for whatever reasons!
Worst of all, one has to do all this 'knowing' their system is in good condition as I am not one of those people that deletes programs instead of un-installing them properly, etc. - I do now how to use a Computer after 25 years working with them I do a defragmentation every week together with a chkdsk (which usually fix most system problems by itself), clean it from Internet muck!
What I do everyday at work is to fix other people problems (software and hardware) and give their computer back as if it was new and perfect order and I do not charge them if they are back or charge a Premium phone call too.
So, my system is fine and if you do not have anything to do but just attack users on this forum, you are in the wrong place - if you have a solution other than re-install, let us know.
We are supposed to help each other here.
Thank you
ADDITION on point 3: instead of forcing customers to reload everything and waste a lot of time, why Toshiba does not create a simple EXE that checks all the settings/drivers/programs are fibe and if they are not fix iy. Like many 'serious' Programs do when you have a problem (usually German Programs or northern Europe in general). A programs repairer without the need to re-install anything!
Sorry for asking the obvious!
