  • Satellite P500 - Eco, speaker and touchpad on/off button don't work

    Hello,
    I love my new Satellite P500. Great Laptop!
    But I have a little problem with the eco button, speaker button an the touchpad on/off button. They dont work! 2 days ago I refreshed my Windows 7 after the same problem. Today I have the problem again.
    I searched for a option where I can support this buttons, but no result.
    Is it possible to reinstall it?
    I installed the eco software again, but it wont work with the button on the left side. Same with the touchpad on/off button.
    Any Idea?
    Thanks
    Alexander

    Hi
    Nice to read that you are love your new Satellite P500. My friend has also bought new Satellite P500 and he is very satisfied too. Its a great notebook with fast and new hardware equipped. The design is fantastic I have to say.
    Anyway, you can reinstall the Eco Utility and Toshiba Value Added Package that controls such special functions. Both utilites you can get on the Toshiba page:

    Good luck! :)

  • Re: Satellite L655 - Touchpad On/Off button isn't working

    Just this morning, I noticed that the on/off button of my Satellite's touchpad doesn't work, although the Fn+F9 key combo does work in activating and deactivating my touchpad.
    It was working well last night until I slept, when I woke up, my laptop has restarted due to Windows updates during the night. I didn't take notice of anything since I was using a wireless mouse. Then upon reaching work and checking if I can activate my touchpad (Windows has loaded and logged on), the on-screen display that tells if the touchpad is active or not is not showing up and my touchpad on/off button won't work.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Oh, sorry about that... I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit... Came pre-installed with the laptop...
    I already did what Xaver suggested. Uninstalled VAP, restart, reinstalled VAP, restart. Unfortunately, the problem still won't go away. As I've mentioned, the button works *BEFORE* logging in to a profile, after that, it doesn't anymore.
    I might try doing a system restore to the point when my computer installed the Windows updates... That might do the trick...

  • I dropped my Iphone in water and the on/off button stopped working, how do I fix it?

    I dropped my phone in some water and it was only in there for about two or three seconds. I grabbed it and dried it straight away and made sure to get in all of it, and it was fine, everything worked. But about an hour after the on/off button stopped working, so i have to use the home button to unlock it and have to wait for the screen to turn off after 1 minute of leaving it. I cant turn it off and dont know how to fix it. Will it go away on its own, do I have to send it off to get fixed? This literally happened like two hours ago, and my phone is a bit more than a year old. Can anyone help me?

    Make an app;ointment at the genius bar and take your credit card. You can get an out of warrnty replacement for an iPhone 4 for $149.
    If you had just done it, the advice would have been to shut it off and put it in a bowl or bag of uncooked rice or silica gel for a week.  Unfortunately, since it's been powered on for several hours, since then, it may have been permanently damaged. You can try the rice trick, but be prepared to pay for a replacement at some point down the road.

  • My screen is frozen and the home and off buttons wont work. what should i do?

    What do you do if your iPad screen freezes and it wont do anything? Home and off buttona wont work!

    Have you tried both together for a Reset? Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!
    Failing that see here for unresponsive iPads - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281

  • IPhone 5. My on-off button rarely works. I can power off with assistive touch. Is there a way to power on with assistive touch, given that the icon disappears?

    My on-off button rarely works. I can power off with assistive touch. Is there a way to power on without the on-off switch?

    Depending on what you mean by power off.  If you mean putting the phone to Sleep, you can tap on the Home button to bring it back. If you turn it off completely, then the only way to turn it on is to use the physical Power Button.

  • Turn on/off button wont work on iphone 4s

    hey everyone,
    for about about 2 weeks now my iphone 4s turn on/off button wont work. It seems stuck and i just cannot press on it I hadnt dropped it or damaged it in any way. To make matters worse I am currently living in Germany and am not due to return to Australia until October. Does anyone know if I can go into an apple store here in Germany and they will replace or fix the phone under warranty? I got this refurbished iphone last year from apple store in August after my previous one had just broken for no reason.
    To make matters worse, my phone fell in the toilet this morning. I have since turned it off so as not to fry the battery. Iphone seems still to be working but now im worried that even if i can get it fixed in germany they won't because they might say its water damaged even though I had this problem with on/off button prior.
    any help would be appreciated!!!
    thanks

  • How common is it that the on/off button stops working? Time to throw away the ipod touch? Safe to fly? No more "print screen"?

  • HT1430 should I reset my phone if my sleep/wake button isnt working?

    Should I reset my Iphone 5 if my sleep/wake button isnt working?

    You can try, but if the button truly isn't working, then you won't be able to re-set it... You may be able to restore it, which would be the next step in the troubleshooting chain. If it is a hardware problem, that will have no effect.
