Equim L40-14I + Tecra A3 HD Swap - Assistance Needed

I had a Toshiba Equium L40-14I but i fried to motherboard. I have removed the hard drive from it and am trying to replace my Toshiba Tecra A3 hard drive with my Equium one. But the connectors on the hard drives are different. How do I go about changing them? Person with the quickest correct answer will receive 10 points.

I agree with Jeka.
Both notebooks use different HDDs;
You should know that there are two different kinds of HDDs; IDE and SATA.
Newer notebooks use the faster SATA HDDs.
What to say; you need to buy an new compatible HDD because L40 SATA HDD is not compatible with Tecra A3 HDD.

Equium L40-14I does not power up if its cold

When I push the power button down when the machine is cold, the green power lights come on for about 2 seconds and then go off. If I give the laptop a bit of gentle heat for a about 30 seconds the laptop starts first time and runs perfectly until the machine is turned off. The laptop is Equium L40-14I
Hope somebody can help with this weird problem.

Appreciate the reply.
I did put another tested lead into the laptop and it still does the same thing.
I bought this as reconditioned a couple of years or so ago for my wife to use and practice on. Its had a couple of problems along the way. I changed the hard drive and the shop that sold it to me got the keyboard working again (well after the 3 months warranty had run out). One day it was working ok the next it developed this weird ritual.
I am not a technician but I have had this thing to bits and put it back to again with the help of the videos on YouTube, so I will have ago if a possible solution to the fault is found.

Equium L40-14I Updated BIOS now no bootup

Hi all,
I was having some slow down issues with my lappie, so checked out Toshiba support for look for any drivers updates.
They was a BIOS update to 2.00WIN with specified an improvement in performance.
My BIOS was v 1.60
I am running Vista and my model number is PSL49E
There were warnings that this update was only for models running Vista and PSL49x - so I thought I was ok.
The update flashed from windows and I a popup dialogue told me a restart was needed.
On restart, I pressed F2 and the BIOS version was showing 2.00
I then exited the BIOS setup and nada!!!!
Black screen, nothing else.
Blue light is on showing power supply, by nothing on HDD light.
Can this be reflashed using FN + F and using floppy usb?
If so, where can I download original BIOS version 1.6
Many thanks for any help

Hi
Seems that something wrong has happened during the BIOS update.
Possibly the ROM module has not been flashed properly.
So the ROM module needs to be flashed once again.
The problem is that the Toshiba European driver page provides just the Win-based BIOS version and this can be updated only from Windows OS.
But I found the traditional BIOS on the Toshiba US page:
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp
But Im not quite sure if this BIOS would be compatible with your L40 so in such case you will need to ask the Toshiba ASP in your country for help and for flashing the BIOS using the BIOS crisis disk.

Equium L40-14I - Can I get a recovery disk?

Hey,
I am stuck with this laptop at the moment as when I did a virus scan about 4 weeks ago it discovered 179 virus and no end of malware threats and since that scan I can no longer boot into any area in normal Windows Vista 32 bit unless it is Safe Mode.
When my mum bought the laptop it was a display model and they did not provide a recovery disc witht the laptop. Am I able to request one or if I am not to get a disc how am I able to rectify this problem please? Also when trying to log on in normal Windows, it accepts the password then sits there happily on the "Welcome" screen and does not move any further.
Please help
Kind Regards
Obviangel

Hello
I think in this case you need a recovery disk or lets say you have to reinstall Windows due these lots of viruses.
The recovery disk is not provided with this model because you have to create such a disk yourself using the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disk creator. But I think not its too late for this.
What you can try is to use the HDD recovery option. You can use it if you go in advanced boot menu (F8) and select repair my computer. On the next screen you can choose the Toshiba HDD recovery option that wipes the first partition of your notebook and you get back the factory settings. That means the preinstalled Vista from Toshiba with all drivers and tools.
After this you can try to create the recovery disk using the Toshiba recovery disk creator.
If the HDD recovery doesnt work due the viruses maybe, you can order a new one from Toshiba directly:

Can't get ATV working with Onkyo TX-SR605-URGENT ASSISTANCE NEEDED!!

I'm hoping someone will be able to give me some advice, as I've now spent way too much time trying to figure out what's going wrong. I've just purchased the Onkyo receiver, which in itself is an extremely daunting piece of equipment after my very straightforward Rotel stereo amp!
I have only 1 HDMI connection available on my 32" Panasonic LCD TV & have, to date, had my ATV connected to it. With my ATV also connected to my amp (via RCA cable), I've been happily viewing/listening to all my iTunes content this way. I understand from reading elsewhere in this forum that I should be able to maintain my HDMI connection to ATV, connect into the receiver using optical, and by so doing, obtain the same results (if not better, thanks to the optical connection) as was previously the case. So far, I've been unable to do this. The only way I've been able to get any audio happening through the speakers is by reconnecting the RCA cable. The optical cable I purchased by the way is a good quality one so I doubt this is where the problem lies - although I guess it's possible.
The 1st problem I encountered when endeavouring to set the system up was that I was unable to get any onscreen information, as I couldn't find an AV input that responded to the receiver's 'setup instructions'. I assumed this would come via the TV's HDMI AV option, given the ATV is the means of connecting to the TV & that's connected via HDMI, but no joy. However, I did some of the basic setup w/o the onscreen visuals, and proceeded to see if I could access my iTunes content with the connections I referred to earlier. As I said before ... no go w/o the RCA cable connected and even then, no sound through the speakers if I reverted to just watching the TV.
I'm driving myself crazy here, and am now at the point where I can see no value in continuing to read & re-read the Onkyo manual. Although I can accept that it's likely to take me some time to learn how to properly drive this beast and get the most out of it, I don't think (from what I've read elsewhere here) that it should be this hard to get what I'm wanting up and running.
Please HELP and save my sanity!
[Thanks in advance to anyone who comes to the rescue ]

jrmccoy, thank you so much! I have never used an optical connection until now, & so was not aware of the necessity to get the 'snap' happening in order to get a good connection. With some trepidation, I applied the required force to the connection to the ATV - sure enough, it 'snapped' in. I tried to get the receiver connection to snap as well, but had no luck there - it seems to be a very 'sloppy' rather than tight connection that slips out with very little effort. However, after pushing really hard on the cable & getting no better connection, I gave up & tried it as was. The result was that , yipee, I now have it all working as I'd anticipated it should. The only thing I still don't have, is the TV sound coming through the speakers - I thought that with the ATV providing the conduit between the TV & the receiver, I wouldn't need any other connection from the receiver to the TV. I suspect now that that was an incorrect assumption! Thought it was all a bit too easy ... sigh.
Once again Apple Discussions have come to my rescue - I honestly don't know what I'd do without the assistance of all you generous people out there with so much & such wide-ranging knowledge!

Numbers formula assistance needed

I'm having a problem coming up with a formula for a schedule worksheet. Every template and tutorial that I've come across so far only allows for one length of lunch break to be subtracted from the total hours worked and what I'm trying to do is subtract an hour if the shift is five hours or longer and only 30 minutes if it is not. Being new to Numbers, I'm having problems with the logic commands to get this to work. If anyone could offer some assistance it would be greatly appreciated.

it would help to see a screenshot o how your sheet is set up, but it sounds like you can just use an IF statement.
maybe like this if column A had the the hours worked:
=B2-IF(B2<5,0.5,1)</div>

Assistance Needed With Creating a Dynamic Query

I am attempting to rename several of my primary key/foreign key constraints from the default "SYS" names to something actually meaningful. I have several "semi-dynamic" queries that look something like this:
SELECT 'ALTER TABLE L_ROLE RENAME CONSTRAINT ' || CONSTRAINT_NAME || ' TO NN_ROLE_ID; ' FROM USER_CONSTRAINTS WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE ='C' AND TABLE_NAME='L_ROLE' AND search_cond(constraint_name)='"ID" IS NOT NULL';
Unfortunately, I have to capture the output of this script and run THOSE statements to get anything done.
I would like to convert this to simply use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE or if necessary a stored procedure. Unfortunately, I'm a bit confused on what the end result would look like. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Jason
p.s."search_cond" is a custom function defined as follows:
create function search_cond( p_cons_name in varchar2 ) return varchar2
as
l_search_condition varchar2(4000);
begin
     select SEARCH_CONDITION into l_search_condition
     from user_constraints
     where constraint_name = p_cons_name;
return l_search_condition;
end;
For some reason, just running the query outside the function doesn't work.

OK, try this. Please note that I commented out the actual exec immediate line and instead just dbms_output the commands that will get executed. This way you can try this first to make sure it produces what you expect. Then just put the exec immediate back in when you are ready.
DECLARE
    TYPE cur_typ IS REF CURSOR;
    v_cursor cur_typ;
    v_query VARCHAR2(1000);
    v_exec VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
    v_query := 'SELECT ''ALTER TABLE ''||uc.table_name||'' RENAME CONSTRAINT '' || uc.constraint_name ||
                      '' TO NN_''||ucc.column_name||'' '' thequery
                FROM user_constraints uc,
                      user_cons_columns ucc
                WHERE uc.constraint_name = ucc.constraint_name
                AND   uc.constraint_type =''C''
                AND   search_cond(uc.constraint_name)=''"ID" IS NOT NULL''
                AND   uc.constraint_name LIKE ''SYS%'' ';
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_query);
    OPEN v_cursor FOR v_query;
    LOOP
        FETCH v_cursor INTO v_exec;
        EXIT WHEN v_cursor%NOTFOUND;
        --EXECUTE IMMEDIATE (v_exec);
        dbms_output.put_line(v_exec);
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE v_cursor;
END;

Swapping images - need to change size

I am trying to create a disjointed rollover so that when I
click on a picture thumbnail in one frame, the full-size image
changes on another frame (it is for a photo website - there are
about 20 thunbnails on a page and a space for only one full-size
image).
It works perfectly fine with "Swap Images" behavior as long
as all full-size images are of the same size - you just set one of
the full-size images as an original as then swap images as you
click on different thumbnails. The problem I am struggling with is
that my full-size images are of different size - "Swap Images"
functions distorts them since it resizes all full-time images to
the same size. What is a solution?

You can do this many ways ways -
1. Don't use swap image - use Show/Hide layer instead. Have
the alternate
image in a hidden layer that is shown when the trigger is
'tickled'. Using
this method you can have images that are any dimension.
2. Use swap image, but remove the dimensions from the
original image's tag,
i.e., change this -
<img name="original" width="150" height="220" ...
to this -
<img name="original" ...
Now when you swap in your offsize image, there is no
predefined size to
change it to. Be aware that this method may well result in an
unpleasant
and undesirable 'rearrangement' of your page layout as it
adjusts to your
new image's dimensions.
3. Pad the smaller image with canvas background color on all
sides so that
all the images *are the same size*.
4. Use a SetTextofLayer (SetText of Element in CS3) behavior
to change the
image reference in a layer (or non-positioned container)
placed so that it
will show the desired larger image in the proper place.
5. Use the PVII ShowPic extension -

Urgent Assistance needed on this

Hi, I am fairly new to Java and this assignment is way over my knowledge, if anyone able to assist me on the whole coding, that would be great. Thanks all.
I am thinking on using array and the file heading on hardware.dat can be omitted.
Task-
Imagine that you are an owner of a hardware store and need to keep an inventory that can tell you what different kind of tools you have how many of each you have on hand and cost of each one.
Now do the following:
(1) Write a program (Tool.java) that,
(1.1) Initializes (and creates) a file ?hardware.dat?
(1.2) lets you input that data concerning each tool, i.e. the program must ask the user for input and each of the user input is written back in the file.
The file must have the following format:
Record# Tool Name Qty Cost per item (A$)
1 Electric Sander 18 35.99
2 Hammer 128 10.00
3 Jigsaw 16 14.25
4 Lawn mower 10 79.50
5 Power saw 8 89.99
6 Screwdriver 236 4.99
7 Sledgehammer 32 19.75
8 Wrench 65 6.48
(1.3) Exception handling that must be taken into account-
(1.3.1) User must not input incorrect data
(1.3.2) Cost of the item must be a number
(2) Write another program (ListToolDetails.java) that,
(2.1) lets you list all the tools, i.e. it will read the data from ?hardware.dat? in a proper manner (you can choose the display format), File name should not be hard coded.
(2.2) lets you delete a record for a tool, as an example- you can delete all the details pertaining to the tool ? Wrench. Once you delete the information, records must be updated in the ?dat? file.
(2.3) List the total price(rounded to two decimal places) of each tool, as an example, the total price of all the Hammers is A$128 * 10 = A$1280.00
(2.4) Exception handling that must be taken into account-
(2.3.1) In case user inputs an incorrect file name
(2.3.2) In case user inputs incorrect Tool name (when the user wants to delete something)
Bonus Task
This task deals with the inclusion of Javadoc comments and generation of documentation pages.
Task-
Your task is to add meaningful javadoc comments in all the programs and generate HTML documentation pages.

pages.First of all , If its your assignment you are ment to do it your self !!
if u have a problem understanding stuff ask your tutor or prof.
they are paid to teach u this stuff....
second : break the problem in to small task as suggested before, it will help u understand the stuff better
Last thing : No one here is gona do your home work for u
so better start doing some research and if u have an implementation or a logic problem then post them here, sure people will help.
now from what i read i think u need to start looking up on
1) get data from the user : u need some thing like bufferedreader
2) validate the input : check with the upper and lower bounds
3) File handing : research on how to write to a file there are a milion pages there on the web teaching you this stuff

Assistant needs access to boss's calendar on Exchange on her iphone

I have a dilemma.
The assistant already has access to her boss's calendar on her Outlook 2007 on Exchange 2010. But not on her iphone. She has her calendar but cannot get to her boss's calendar. How can I make this work?
We are using Air-Watch MDM to enroll and manage the iPhones.
Thanks,

We are also using AirWatch in my company and have been asked a similar question for some assistants. Let me first state that while it is possible - there are numerous cautions to doing this!
If the assistant's phone is properly enrolled and they receive their data from Exchange, you can manually create another Exchange account on their iPhone for their manager and select what deliverables they would like to sync. AirWatch's SEG (Secure Email Gateway) will use the compliance of her/his iPhone to passthrough to Exchange any valid account on that device. Unlike Outlook/Exchange - there is no view only for the assistant, they will have full control of that mailbox - this gets confusing with things like calendar - because they will get notifications for both meetings and the pop-ups do not indicate which account they are for. (there is some setting changes you can make to set the assistants calendar as the default, but I have not seen notifications on/off per calendar account - only the calendar as a whole).
When we tested this, we are not using certificates to sync the passwords (that's another discussion), so everytime the manager changes their AD password (which we sync with their Outlook password), they would have to go and manually change it on the assistants phone.
In short - it is possible to have multiple accounts on an enrolled device, but the additional ones will need to be manually created (since the EAS payload pulls the Enrolled Information from the AirWatch agent for email setup), they will have full access to that mail account and can get confusing on the calendar side.

Learning java - assistance needed

Good morning everyone!
I've been beating my head against the table trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong here, and my wife pointed out that I should maybe..I dunno, ask for help?
Here's the situation:
I'm designing a cell phone keypad with a text field above and a separate clear button to the right of the 12 button keypad. Buttons 1-0, and * and #.
Heres the first of two problems:
My GridLayout is propagating as a FlowLayout I think, either that or it's just ignoring me altogether.
I need to know what mistake I'm making, but the three manuals I've been going through aren't helping me much.
Here's the second and final problem:
My button pressing escapades are having no impact on my textfield. This is definitely a case of can't see the forest for the trees. I know it's an obvious mistake, but I'm getting a bit frustrated so I'm missing it.
And here's my code below, if there are optimizations possible, my pride will not be hurt if you suggest them.
Thank you for your time folks, and thanks for all the assistance you've unknowingly given me before.

Am I adding the buttons incorrectly? I've never done nested panels for an assignment before, at least not with multiple layout types.The best way I've found to test complex layouts is to test each component in isolation. For instance if I wanted to test a gridlayout, I'd create a small app that creates nothing but this:
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class MainPanel extends JPanel
private String[] btnStrings =
    "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I", "*", "Z", "#"
private JPanel buttonPanel = new JPanel();
public MainPanel()
    buttonPanel.setLayout(new GridLayout(0, 3));
    ButtonListener buttonlistener = new ButtonListener();
    for (int i = 0; i < btnStrings.length; i++)
      JButton button = new JButton(btnStrings);
button.addActionListener(buttonlistener);
buttonPanel.add(button);
this.add(buttonPanel); // this is redundant here, but placed here to impress that buttonPanel must be added to the MainPanel to be seen
private class ButtonListener implements ActionListener
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
String btnString = e.getActionCommand();
System.out.println("Button pressed: " + btnString);
private static void createAndShowUI()
JFrame frame = new JFrame("ButtonPanel");
frame.getContentPane().add(new MainPanel());
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
public static void main(String[] args)
java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable()
public void run()
createAndShowUI();
And then when working, I'd incorporate it into the greater program.

Urgent assistance needed on textfields/labels please!!

I have been trying for days to add labels and textFields to my applet and can only manage to display one.
My assignment instructions suggest I use makeTextField method and call the setEditable method from the makeTextField method to avoid repetition of code.
The following is my code...I must have this done in the next couple of days so if someone could please please give me some assistance it would be really appreciated....also, thoughts on my layout would be great as well...i cant seem to set up my buttons in the correct order.

thanks in advance for anything someone can do for me

I haven't tried your code, but since you use a layout manager, you shouldnt need to think about setting the size for the applet.
And I think when you call the method makePanel the last 4 times, you want to use the returned panel to add your components on. Right now you add everything directly to the panel and never use the panels you create.
And you also reuse some of your components more than once (like e.g. courBackB). You need to create a new button everytime, otherwise if you try to add the same button twice, the second one will not be displayed.
Try to add the components one by one and check it is displayed before you add the next one.
If you want to check what components and their sizes etc, you have on your applet, here is a little trick. Get the focus on your applet and press ctrl+shift+F1. If you run the applet in a browser, you will get something in the java console that displays all your GUI components and a description of them. So
It might help you.
Also take a look of the Java Tutorial for the AWT. You can download it from
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/information/download.html
called tut-OLDui.zip.

Assistance needed with new monitor and printing from LR3

I just purchased a new IPS monitor. I have calibrated it using the HP Display assistant that came with it. It is an HP ZR 22w. I saved my calibration as a preset - however - this is not appearing as a profile when I try to select it in the print module. the checkbox for "include display profiles" is ticked. If I allow the printer to manage - the pictures are much warmer than on the IPS display. My printer is a canon mg6120 and I am running windows 7. I would appreciate any assistance that anyone can provide. Thank you

I think the "HP Display assistant" is a software tool, is that right?
Ideally with Lightroom, you should use a hardware calibration/profiling tool (Spyder, Eye One, Color Munki etc). In particular, you need a monitor profile that contains colour space information. I had a look through the HP Display Assistant user manual, and it appears the software does calibration but it probably doesn't put colour space info in the profile. It'll be better than nothing, but a hardware tool is better.
However:

This is not what you want to do! The profile that the HP Display Assistant creates is for the monitor, and only for the monitor. It gets the right white point and tone curve for the monitor. What you need in the profile drop-down in LR print module is a printer profile, not a monitor profile (except on very special circumstances).
I'm not familiar with the MG6120, but when I googled "profiles for canon mg6120" I got a lot of hits, so I assume profiles are available. It's quite likely that some came with the printer driver, and were installed with the printer software. When you select "profile" in LR print module (you may well have to go to "Other..." to see them all) then there should be profiles for the printer - possible lots of them - one or more for each paper type. If they're not there, see the Canon documentation (or google it) to find out how to load them.
If you can't find any profiles for the printer, then try using sRGB (or probably it's "sRGB IEC..."). Without colour management, your printer will probably expect sRGB images, so this should be roughly right, but a specific profile for the printer is better. This is one of those very special circumstances when something other than a printer profile (and sRGB isn't a printer profile) may be better than nothing.

Live Update 5: First-Timer Assistance Needed

Please allow me to preface this by informing you all that I am a complete noob, where custom built computers are concerned. I likely won't understand some of the techy lingo, so please bare with me. Thank you in advance.
I have a PC with a MSI 970A-G45 mainboard. The OS is Windows 7. There is a Live Update 5 icon on my desktop. Upon opening this LU5, it appears this program is used to ensure at least some of the hardware/software stays up to date. However, I am scared to death that I will click the wrong button, likely causing a disaster which I'm not capable of fixing.
As you can see, I have taken a screenshot of the Live Update screen. I clicked the scan button, and these are the results. Because I use my own virus/spyware protection, I'm fairly certain I want no part of the Norton Internet Security. Other than that, I'm not sure what to do next, if anything.
Should I download any of these results? If so, which ones? When doing this now and/or in the future, are there precautions I should take, or is it as simple and doing the average Windows update?
Thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide.

do not do the MB BIOS as that is dangerous to do as Windows is a Unstable Environment and it has a 50/50 of Bricking it (rendering it inoperable) and I advise against that part all together!
also do not use Norton Internet Security as the Virus scanner in it is prone to ultra heavy scanning and can slow down your computer alot!
as for using it turn off MB BIOS, VGA BIOS and Other Utility! and the rest is ok to use! but If you have no problems with the computer and everything is working leave it all alone....
as for BIOS its best to do it manually and if you do want to do that ask us first and we will walk you through it safely and as your a noob that's your best thing to do!
does that make sense to you?
I don't believe I am having any issues. I'm not noticing anything strange. I'm just accustom to keeping everything updated, so I wanted to make sure.
Thank you very much for your assistance.
