HELP WITH NEW TOSHIBA....I HATE IT!!!!

Sorry that this first message regarding Toshiba Satellite Laptop is not very flattering! One month ago, I purhased a new Toshiba Satellite Laptop....within one day, I was having problems with the screen fluttering, turning red, and shutting down. I contacted Support a few times, but their updates did not fix the problem. After one week, I returned the Laptop to the place where I purchased it and exchanged it for another...hoping to get one that worked. No such luck...one day later the screen began to flutter as did the old one....again, I contacted Support, but again they were no help. Their last suggestion was to take it to a repair shop. Sorry, but I was hoping to purchase a laptop that worked and not one that needing repairing as soon as it was purchased. Any suggestions? Right now I would just like to return it for a refund and purchase a MAC. Frustrated in Flower Mound....

I would talk directly to the store owner, and do so today. Under the circumstances you may be able to convince him to give you a days grace period on the return policy, especially if you can document the fact that this is the second defective one that you have received from them. If you are successfull, and I feel quite certain if you can talk to him calmly and rationally, be sure to test the new system right there in front of him/her.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

You will need to contact the movie studio that produced the DVD and ask if they can issue you a new code valid for Canada. Apple cannot help you, and everyone here in these forums is just a fellow user.

Palm 755P (Sprint) not synchronizing with new Toshiba Satellite L305D operatig Windows Vista.

OK Please help the new guy....
I have a Treo that is a month old. It was previously synchronized with my old computer. My old computer took the dive. I bought a new Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5938t aht is running Windows Vista.
I tried to locate the Palm Desktop via the disk in the Treo box from Sprint. No dice. The Desktop loaded, but I can't synchronize my Treo. There is no available USB connection.
So, I played around with it and tried to get it to connect via bluetooth.... NO DICE.
Very frustrating.....
Does anyone have any advise at all?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Anybody out there have a solution?
Has anybody beside me encountered this problem too?
Please advise.....

Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums. My first assumption is your Vista is a 64bit version. That being the case there are no usb drivers available which is the reason for the problem trying to sync via cable. You are headed in the right direction as bluetooth is the only way your going to sync. First the computer has to be bluetooth compatible or you need to purchase a bluetooth dongle and get it installed and then get the two to pair. From there if you go the the windows hotsync thread here you will find a sticky that explains the process. Also here is a knowledge base article about how to sync via bluetooth. http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/nua/launchKB.asp?c=41559

Help with new hard drive and data recovery

I have a macbook pro 13" from early 2011...last week the hard drive crashed and after a few hours at the genius bar had to got tekserv to recover my data and get a new hard drive and update to 8GB of Ram. When I got my macbook back I was given an external hard drive that had everything from my old hard drive saved by the users on the old hard drive. I was hoping I could just transfer the user over to the new hard drive but since I had to restart the computer as a new computer I am not able to just reassign my old profile as the new one on this laptop. Maybe I've done something wrong but at this point I transferred all my documents over, moved my music and pictures over but I have a few things I can't figure out that I'm hoping someone can help with.
1. Do emails that were in my mail program from both gmail and my verizon.net program get saved somewhere or do I have to just assume those were lost?
2. my iTunes library is now there but none of my playlists are there. Should those have been saved somewhere in my iTunes folder that I should see them? I'm concerned about syncing my iPhone or iPads to iTunes without those there.
thanks for the help.

Can any one help with new iOS 7.1 update?

Hello,
I have recently downloaded the iOS 7.1 update and it has being causing problems with the iPhone 4s. The problems are as follows;
No Wi-Fi connection all, and in full range of a connection (If and when I connect its for 10 seconds and gone again)
Battery Life depleting quickly
iPhone freezes constantly
iPhone getting extremely hot when not in use.
Is there anything that I can do that can help with this or will I have to wait for the next iOS update?

If I restore as new without the backup & everything seems to be fine, I assume I would then have to restore it from my latest backup in iTunes in order to get all (or at least most) of my data back.
From what I have read, it looks like at least the music I have on my iPhone 4S that I put there from a CD I own would not be in my backup. That is not a major problem, since it is only 1 CD.
It also seems like the iTunes backup is more complete than the iCloud backup (I do have both).
So, I should probably be restoring from that backup.
Is there anything else that is not backed up in an iTunes backup that I should consider before I do that?
When I backup in iTunes (or even in iCloud), some items not backed up?
Wouldn't I then have to re-install those items that are not in my backups?
I have a Medical app from my local ambulance operator where I have taken a ton of time to input all of my medical information going back numerous years. I just got tired of some medical person constantly asking me for information one never really makes a point of remembering. Now, I have all of that information in my iPhone 4S.
There is no way I would want to reinstall that app & re-input all of that information again.
I also put a lot of "lists" in the Notes area on my iPhone 4S.
I understand that is also something that is not backed up.
These are just 2 examples.
I also have other items that I am under the impression also are not backed up.
Losing any of that information would be a huge burden to recover.
I am willing to take a chance with some items that are not backed up to either iTunes nor iCloud.
But, knowlingly doing something that may lose that information is not something I am willing to do.
OR, am I just not understanding what is and is not backed up in iTunes or iCloud & what I could potentially lose?

Search help with new selection within if more than 500 entries

Dear all,
I created a new search help and this works fine ... If I compare my search help with a default search help from SAP, I have 1 small feature that not seems to work ... With the default one, it is possible to make a new selection within the search help by clicking on the arrow down :
If I look at my search help, I don't have the possibility to make a new selection :
Does anyone how this can be done ?
Thanks in advance !
Greetz,
Kurt.

HI,
Here are the general steps to get you started.
1. Identify the search help being used (on the ship-to-party field, F1 then Tech Info). I believe you want the collective search help SD_DEBI.
2. Create your own search help with the fields you want to use with SE11, like 'ZDEBI' as an example.
3. Append 'ZDEBI' to SD_DEBI. (Goto->Append Search Help).
4. Clean things up by "Hiding" the old search help. In the 'Included Search Help' tab of the collective search help SD_DEBI, there is a check box that you can tick to hide included search helps.

Help With New Hard Drive Installation Recovery

I had a bad hard drive crash. I installed a new one and got the bios to boot from the cd drive, with the windows 7
orginal install cd in the drive. It recognized Drive 0, I clicked new in the options. It created ONE System partition.
Installed windows 7 seemingly fine. Inserted the application and driver recovery disk and installed those. It all seemed fine. This morning I turned it on and it the hard drive error message (3F0) please install an operating system. I shut it down and restarted, it seemed normal. I installed a few programs, shut it down again. Returned to it later, started it up again and it took me to the diagnostic screen telling me SMART Check - Not Installed and Short DST - Not Installed.. Can someone tell me how to delete that partition and I can format the drive in a usb sata enclosure and start over again.
Please tell me the correct proceedure to get this laptop back up and running to a factory state. I have original Windows7 and Windows8 and Application and Driver disks for both OS'es.. I want to stay with the Windows7 installation.
Thanks for any help with this problem. I have no idea where I went wrong !
This question was solved.
View Solution.

It is not impossible that the new hard drive is bad, have seen it before. It is also possible that the sata controller on motherboard is bad-but I would look at that possibilty last. Can you get an exchange on the new hdd?

Need help with new Time Capsule/Airport express setup!

I just hooked up a 500g time capsule to replace an airport extreme, and now my airport utility on my MacbookPro Retina no longer recognizes the airport expresses I had on my network for airplay purposes. Can anyone help with this issue?

Instead of a switch you need a wireless router, because your modem will only assign one public ip address to the switch and that ip address will be forwarded to any one computer at a given time...You should replace the switch with a wireless router and it should resolve your concern...

Need help with new 8310

Just upgraded from earlier blackberry and have two problems I need help with!
First, in rearranging the icons my browser icon disappeared and I can't get it back even when I use the show all function. Any ideas?
Second, unlike my earlier blackberry, messages I sent from my office laptop are not appearing in my messages. What setting do I need to tweak? I like my blackberry to show all the messages sent from or received by the laptop.
Thanks.
Lauren

My BB setting was to not hide sent messages, but the problem I think has to do with the settings on syncing with my computer. Messages I send from the blackberry show up as sent - but I want the BB to match completely with the email on my computer - show every email received and every email sent. That was how the old BB was set up. Any ideas on what else to tweak either on the desktop or the BB? Thanks for your help.

Help with new error code (-1)!

Hi I am trying to update my iphone 4 to ios5. When it comes to the last stage, it shows this error of -1. I am unable to find any info related to this error code. Any help with this is highly appreciated! Many Thanks. Now the phone is unusable. Previously it showed several errors including 1600 series and they are all resolved. This is the last hudrle. Please Help!
Thanks

Like many I experienced some issues when updating to iOS 5 (on launch day). I finally gave up on the Update option and chose the Restore option.
iOS 5 downloaded and installed without issue. I restored from Back Up and everything was in place. No errors.
If you are updating, try using Restore instead.

Need help with my Toshiba remote control and receiver for Qosmio G30 161

Hello to all
I have a Toshiba Qosmio G30-161 and with it I have a Toshiba remote control and a Toshiba remote control receiver, this is the first time I have used it (tried to that is), my problem is the remote is not working on the computer when I press any program buttons the computer does nothing.
I have installed four brand new AA batteries and the remote works fine its sending signals to the receiver, the receiver the detecting the remote as a red light appears every time you press a button and as for the computer I have checked the drivers and the USB is picking up the receiver as a E-home remote receiver which I have checked with Toshiba and that is correct, so all in all the remote is working, the receiver is picking up signals and the pc has detected the receiver but nothing works, I have installed remote control manager but this still has done anything. I have spoken to Toshiba help and support and the end result is they are not sure what the problem is. Can anyone help I require the remote for slideshows for customers as I??m a photographer.
Also to confirm I am running Windows XP MCE addition.
Anthony Worlock

Hi there,
this remote contol works, if you use it without any special drivers and special software, only in the Media Center.
But if you install such stuff like [WinLirc|winlirc.sourceforge.net] then you should be able to get some functions for your presentation.
Please try this tool and check if it works.
By the way: If I were you I would first read the Manual and FAQ of WinLirc before starting because its a little bit tricky to handle the program. :) (Too many settings :D)

Help with new MBP and iTunes

I need some help fast. I bought my wife a new MBP and in setting everything up we inadvertently setup a new and wrong iTunes account. We haven't transferred anything yet, I want to get this account off her computer before I bring everything from her Win 7 machine.
Can't find any specific instructions, can somebody help me out?
Thanks!
Mark

It's late so this will be rather short:
1. Make sure you update the older version of iTunes to the latest version
2. Go into iTunes Settings and Authorize iTunes with your Apple ID and Password
3. In settings, turn off Automatice sync
4. Connect your iPad and once recognized, right click the device from the left side of the the iTunes screen
5. Transfer purchases
6. You can then sync
A lot to digest and I don't have the time to walk you through every step. If you need to, google the points and you'll find lot's of information on where to find these in iTunes.

Help with new Airport Extreme (and network name) not recognizing Time Capsule and other Airports in the home

I had a Time Capsule running in an AV Cabinet and it made too much noise as it backed up and ruined soft/quiet music passages (and created far too much warmth as well). So, I visited the local Apple store and the guy I met worked through a few solutions with me. I decided on an Airport Extreme for the audio cabinet, and would move the Time Capsule to another room where it would not create noise interference.
So, I have the Airport up and running perfectly well. I changed my wireless network name and password.
I cannot get the Airport Express and Time Capsule to show up on my network. They both just blink that brown/orange color on the front. When I go to the Airport Utility, it does not pick up the Time Capsule or Airport Express. I have tried unplugging and plugging back in and scanning for devices, but dont know what else to do. Are they still looking for my old network? Is there a way to reset them??
Thanks for any help.

I've tried the option key on both--the AEBS offers 14 options, including Automatic, while the TC offers 8 options, and no Automatic. The AEBS lists (among others) 802.11 a/n-b/g compatible, 802.11 a-b/g compatible, or 802.11 n (5 GHz)-b/g compatible. The TC offers 802.11.n (b/g compatible), 802.11n only (2.4 GHz), and 802.11n only (5 GHz), among others...
I had already followed the instructions in the link you supplied, except that the wireless options don't quite match...
I am currently trying 802.11n (5GHz)-b/g compatible on the AEBS and 802.11 (5GHz) on the TC, which gives me a rate of 270 on my n devices and 54 on my g devices, according to the Airport Utility.
This might be the best I can do, without buying a new TC. Thanks for any advice you can give...
C.
