How can a laptop be started without seeing the Toshiba splash screen?

As the title indicates, when I burned a copy of Windows 7 home premium to an ISO from Techverse, (never had an offical recovery partition on my L875-S7208) I never have seen the Toshiba splash screen, it only bots to the Windows 7 splash screen, which means I cannot enter BIOS...can anyone help track down how I can achieve this?

The BIOS must set in 'Fastboot' mode. Fully shut down your unit, press and hold down the 'F2' key at the top of your keyboard, and then power the unit on, while still holding the 'F2' key down. You should hopefully then be able to enter the BIOS Setup, disable 'Fastboot', press 'F10' to save and exit.
I would strongly recommend you investing in a set of Toshiba Recovery Media for your model. You can order it here. This will rebuild the HDD recovery partition, reload Windows, and install all the drivers and software your system came with when it was new. Just follow the directions on page 67 of your 'User's Guide'.
Let us know how it works out. Good luck.

I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone. How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them. You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up und one account.

You can have a different receiving email in the Messages app on each device : Settings > Messages > Receive At . I'm not sure that there is a different way to have the message only go to one device.

How can I add new games without overwriting the old ones?

I have just purchased two new games in the itunes store and although they are showing in the library (under applications) my previously purchased games are not. In Summary under games it will not let me choose selected games only 'all games' and when I press sync warns that the existing games will be replaced. How can I add these games without deleting the older ones? Also if I did want to remove a game from my ipod how do I do it?

Part of the problem is that I can never sync the whole thing as I dont keep all my music in my library (it seems silly to have my enture cd collection on the computer).
Clearly it ISN'T silly as it avoid issues like you are having right now. If you need more space, get an external hard drive. To me it is much sillier to only have your stuff on the iPod and no where else as the iPod, as a small portable player, is much more likely to be dropped, lost, damaged, stolen, forgotten somewhere, etc.
While I am not familiar with the use of games on the iPod (I have never bought any) you can switch the iPod to manually manage and then you can add content to your iPod without losing what is already there. Perhaps it works for games as well.
But long term, I strongly suggest you keep all your stuff in your library so if you need to (you have to perform a restore on the iPod, you lose it and buy a new one, etc.) you can very easily sync it all back to the iPod when needed.
Good luck,

I only see the phone numbers of my contacts when using iMessage on my MAC, whereas I see the names on my iPhone. Why, and how can I make it so I see the names (and pics) on my MAC?

Thanks Eric, but that was already turned on. I just now tried turning it off and on again, no change. Actually, I"m more interested in seeing the names than the pictures. I now only see the phone numbers and generic avatars where pics would be.

Everything on all the webpages are so small, and only take up half the screen. How can I make it bigger, without changing the settings on my computer and by that change the size of everything on my computer.

How can I install Adobe Acrobat without installing the browser extensions?

Hello All,
I am a computer Technician at a high school and we have very strict browser requirements for different services. We need to use Adobe Acrobat to convert PDF's, and other tasks, and we need to use Chrome to open Adobe Reader files. The issue is that I want my 3 browsers (Chrome, IE, Firefox) to open PDF files using Adobe Reader XI. All my plugin settings are correct to use Adobe Reader to open PDF's, but it either downloads a PDF to the computer, or opens up in the browsers default reader (Chrome does this), or opens up to a blank page with a blank error message. I went into the programs Internet settings for Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat and it's telling me the browser opens them up using Adobe Acrobat (With no option to change the setting). The problem is only solved when I uninstall Adobe Acrobat.Then I am able to open PDF's in Adobe Reader just like I want (but this gets rids of Acrobat). This leads me to believe that when I install Adobe Acrobat, there is a registry key or something that is telling the computer to open PDF's in browsers using Acrobat. My initial question is this: How can I install adobe Acrobat without linking it to the browser. I JUST want Adobe Acrobat as a program installed on the computer.
Additional Info:
- I build a computer image and use that image on several computers. This issue persists with all of the computers I installed the image on.
- I am using Adobe Reader 11 (Now DC, but I am willing to use either) and Adobe Acrobat Pro CS3 (I think it's version 9?)
Thanks for the help.
- Charlie

How can i print an email without printing the attachment?

I just got my new macbook pro retina display. I am using Mac mail and want to know how I can print an email without printing the attachement. Any suggestions and solutions would be appreciated.

Thank you for your suggestion. But when I receive an email that has an attachment (shown by paperclip symbol) The email opens and shows the attachment(jpg picture) at the end of the email so when I go to print - the email pops up with the picture already opened inside the body of the email. Can not figure out why this happens in mac mail. when i used outlook in windows only email would show. in order to see attachment you had to click on paperclip and only then would the attachment (picture apprear).
Any other suggestions that I may could try would be appreciated. Thank you! Gabriela

It is not possible to accomplish this with the Muse's Form Widgets. You may need to look for other online solutions and fetch the source code and add to the Muse page using the Insert HTML feature.

How can i run external application without specifying the full path?

for example, ms word executable file is winword.exe, but in java i am using the following command:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office10\\winword.exe\");
the thing is, i dont know where ms word is installed on every machine, so rather than making an assumption, do you know how i can run ms word without specifying the full path?
thanks

1) You could ask the user to tell you where it's at (and remember for next time)
2) You could do a file search for it (and remember it for next time)

HT1212 I got "ipad is disabled, connect to itunes". I have never synced my ipad with itune and don't have a backup. how can I bypass this message without restoring the device. I have many articles on my ipad that I can not afford to loose.

I have upgraded my ipad2 to the latest ios. shortly after this message came up: "ipad is disabled, connect to itunes". I have never synced my ipad2 to itunes and don't have any backup. Is there any way to bypass this without restoring the device? I have many articles on "iAnnotate" that can not afford to loose.

You can't bypass it, you will need to connect iPad to a computer's iTunes, and you may need to put it into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad, which will remove all content from it.
You haven't been backing up to the cloud either, and/or keeping copies of important documents/files elsewhere e.g. on your email account, Dropbox etc ?

How can I link an image without leaving the existing window in adobe acrobat??

Hi everybody
I'm new using adobe acrobat, but I saw (once) that in a manual, they linked a image.
Just by passing the mouse over the linked word, the image appears "over" the pdf, without leaving the existing window
Is this still possible?? and How??
Thanks for your help

If you need to do it very often, I've developed a web-service that allows
you to enter a phrase (let's say "Product 1"), and have an image "pop-up"
whenever the user hovers or clicks that phrase in your document. Contact me
personally for more information.

How can I create side bars without cropping the image?

I want to create side bars because I am projecting in an vertical panel, but if I crop the image them I only get the middle part of it.
How can I create side bars in an way that I can still move the image inside?

On a Video Track directly above the clip(s) you want to have behind the side bars, place a clip of Color (or whatever you want to use for your sidebars).
Now go to the Effects Tab > Matte >Mask Shape and drag the Mask Shape filter to the Color clip you have placed on the timeline.
Double click on the clip to open it in the viewer, and click on the Filters Tab.
Click Invert Box, and adjust the shape to get the side bars you want.
And now the clip(s) that are beneath this effect will have the side bars and be independent of it, so that you can move them around.
