My Toshiba laptop can't start up. An indicator light is on even if the laptop is off.

Hello. I am a bit nervous about my laptop now. Last night I hibernated my laptop. For the next 24 hours, I turned it on and it shows a weird condition. It will open and shows the logo of toshiba then suddenly shuts down with a slight "beep" sound. So I tried removing the charger, removing the battery, pressing the power button for 60 seconds. After placing the battery again, the orange led indicator for battery opens and was changed into white. Take note: the laptop is off. Kindly help me with this. I don't know what to do. The laptop won't start, it is a toshiba satellite. I am avoiding to spend money for laptop repair. Please help.

    You could try a SMC reset:

  • My iphone 4s got water in the headphone port. I put my phone in rice for 24 hours and the LED light is on. It stays on even when the phone is off. How can I fix it with out spending 200 bucks at apple to have them fix it?

    Short answer is you probably cannot.  Once water gets inside the device and it is powered on, the damage likely is permanant. 

  • Can we send more than 50 files ...even at the cost of a more expensive subscription level?

    Thanks.

    Hi Val,
    Nice to see you in the forums again!
    There is currently just the one subscription level for Adobe Send. If you want to send more than 50 files per transaction, you can try zipping up some or all of the files and sending them in batches. However, the ZIP files can't be previewed by your recipients, and tracking information pertains only to the full ZIP file.
    Best,

    Before taking it in to the Apple Store... Try this...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    Hi Kim ...
    Might not just be the security code > iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records
    Apple "verifies" your billing credentials with every transaction.
    what does my debit card have to do with my having a redeemed ITunes card
    If the total purchase price of the media including any applicable taxes or fees exceeds the balance of the redeemed card, then the difference is charged to your debit or credit card account.

  • How can I start a second window of a second profile through the command line?

    I have two profiles set up, 'default' and 'second'. If both are already running how can I start a second window of profile 'second'?
    firefox -p 'second' : opens a new window of the default and,
    firefox -p 'second' -no-remote : tells me that firefox is already running.

    I don't think that this is possible.<br />
    You need to open this second instance (Firefox profile folder) with the -no-remote command line switch and that makes it impossible to open external links via the command line or via a double-click.<br />
    You can only open a link in such an instance by dragging the link on the tab bar of that Firefox window.

  • My iphone starts playing music when I'm not even touching the phone

    My iphone 4 starts playing music when the phone is in my purse and I'm not touching it or even going through my purse. I've tried making sure the ipod is not set to a song but rather to a menu screen when I close it. Sometimes I haven't even used the ipod recently. My phone also calls people when I'm not touching it. Does anyone else have this problem? It must be something I'm doing but I can't figure out what it could be. I'd appreciate any help!

    Mine plays music when I have the iPhone 4 in my pocket and bend over a little, I know that kinda 'scrunches' the phone slightly but no other iPhone I've had ever did this and I've treated them all the same. I'll be walking along, pick up something and then the music starts playing. I don't touch anything, never attach headphones, basically the phone is asleep but somehow something triggers the music to start playing. I've entered this as a separate thread but no one seems to know why this happens. I suppose I could take the phone back and exchange it for a new one, but it would be better to know what is causing this.

  • PB Wouldn't start, now no indicator light

    all of a sudden I had real problems starting my PB with the button. It took about 10 tries pressing softly, hard, medium, etc. When I'd get it to turn on, the indicator light wan't lit up. I went to Support page on Mac.com and there was an article about "POWERBOOK WONT START: they suggested resetting PRAM.
    I think I reset pram, becaus afterward my time had been reset 1970 and 00:00,
    Now it startts, but there is never the old indicator light at the front that used to light up: Also, I never get email notifications from I Calendar for events. Any suggestions? I use OnyX to run scripts, clean, etc. Vincent

    Hi, Vincent,
    there are two remarks in your post which i find odd:
    a) a 13" PB - probably it's a 12 ".
    b) when my 12"PB is running, the little light in the front-latch is not alight. It starts to blink very slowly (kind of breething) when it sleeps, and when the machine is idle and the screen (not the processor!) is sleeping.
    But there is something wring with your PB.
    a) repeatedly pressing the power-button is certainly not normal. could be caused by mechanical or liquid dirt in the contact area of this button, but could also be software or electronics.
    b) when you reset the PRAM, the date is definitively NOT reset.
    Question: did you do "maintenance" - i mean Back-Ups (in order to safeguard your files), but also things like "repair permissions", check the hardware via disk utility?
    Also: did you check the prefs of iCal? there is a switch to send no alarm, if iCal is off...
    please, post back, i'm curious to see whether this is a hardware problem, or a software one.

  • Toshiba laptop turns off randomly when moved

    Hi,
    I have a Toshiba Satelite C655 that randomly turns off when moved. In fact, it will not boot back up unless I remove the battery entirely, hold down the power button for 20 seconds, then put the battery back in. Then it boots up fine.
    Like I said, it randomly happens when it's bumped or moved.
    Any ideas what this could be? We took everything except the processor out and put it back in to ensure nothing was loose.
    This laptop has been very rarely used and is in mint condition besides this one flaw.

    I hate random problems. They are the hardest to diagnose and take the longest time to figure out. I agree, it sounds like a loose or intermittent connection. But if you have gone in and reseated all of the connections and made sure that the cables are in straight, etc, it could be a defective connector, cable or component. Again, going to take time and effort to figure out which part or piece when moved or bumped is at fault. Either put in the time and effort to figure it out or consider turning this computer into a 'desktop', where it won't be moved or bumped. Same location always with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse.

  • I can't open emails. Neither can I start a new email. It seems as though the keyboard doesn't access these functions, or maybe other functions such as cut and paste. Why?

    See header. This mac pro is very new (a couple months). Although I use Apple Mail on my iPad as well as a desktop iMAC and iPhone, I can't seem to get it to work on this MacPro. I've been through the various setup features -- can't figure it out.

  • Can not start WebLogic in Eclipse. Error: "Could not find the main class."

    I have installed Eclipse 2.0 and WebLogic Server 6.1. and the WebLogc plug in from GENUITEC (and jdk1.3.1_04, on Win2K Server). After I have done the configuration, the WebLogic start/stop buttons are integried into the Eclipse Toolbar, but when I click on the start button to start Weblogic, it pops up a dialog box "Java Virtual Machine Launcher" with message: "Could not find the main class. Program will exit!"
    Starting WebLogc Server from the Start panel works fine.
    Does any one have seen this before or have a suggestion what I should do?
    Many many thanks in advance.
    Huan

    Weblogic must be started with a full JDK; otherwise
    JSPs and dynamic EJB stubs could not be deployed. The
    error message
    indicates you are attempting to use a JRE. Configure
    Eclipse JRE to point to a JDK. The product
    documentation will help you with this process. It does not work for me. :-(
    I have tried JDK 1.3.1 and 1.4.1: same result: I get a "Could not find the main class: Program will exit"

  • HT201406 i can't turn on my ipad at all, not even with the sleep keep, how can i start it again

    I can't turn on my IPAD, not even with holding the sleep bottom, how can i star my IPad again

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
