My Toshiba Satellite does not charge or turn on.

Hiya. I'm fourteen, and I own a Toshiba Satellite C650D. This was my first ever laptop. On Christmas Eve, It shut down once by itself. I thought it might've overheated so I turned it on again and it was fine. Later on it shut off again. It didn't turn back on.. It's been stuck off this whole time. I really liked my computer and I refused all other laptops, I only want my Toshiba. The LED charge light doesn't turn on if I plug in the Brand new power cord. I tried doing a power cycle more than three times, I took it apart and dusted off the motherboard, I found no cracks in it. A little bit of pieces tumbled out, But I suspected that was from the broken hinge. The pieces that fell out were tiny pieces of plastic, and one small metal loop with three tiny arms and one medium arm. I'm not sure if this is a busted socket or anything, But I think it's the broken hinge. I really want my laptop back, It was absolutely amazing, and All I've been stuck with this whole time is an IBM thinkpad. If ANYONE can help me please do. I cannot afford to go to a service center, order parts or a disk, and my dad said he was going to find me a new laptop on ebay. I don't want a new laptop. I want my Toshiba.

Please provide the entire model number of your laptop.
Also, were you using your laptop mostly for gaming?
Was this that the first time you had felt it was hot / overheating?
When you press the power button do you hear the fan come on, even if for a few seconds?
Do you hear you hard drive spin at all?

  • After two days Ipad is completely dead does not charge or turn on

    Purchased new ipad with retina display and was working fine til tried to turn on today and nothing. does not charge or turn on HELP!!!

    If you did run the battery totally down, it can take at least half an hour after you plug it in before it shows any signs of life.
    ANd in trying to recharge it, are you plugging it into the wall with its supplied charger? If you're trying via USB then it may take hours and hours before it shows any sign of charging. Most USB ports don't put out enough power to meet the iPad's power requirements.

  • IPod does not charge or turn on but is recognized in Windows and iTunes

    A couple of days ago after disconnecting my iPod in iTunes the iPod display went blank. It will not turn on nor will it display if it is charging if it is connected to the wall power adapter. I tried reseting it and I let it sit for 24 hours like the apples website said and nothing happened. What did happen is that Windoes recognizes it and so does iTunes and the hard drive spins and is acessible. I let reset it and let it sit another 24 hours and it still does not turn on nor will the power adapter recognize it. The display does not appear broken and it physically looks good.
    Any ideas?

    The only thing you haven't mentioned is whether you've tried to restore it. If that doesn't work, it looks like it will need service.
    Restoring the iPod to factory settings.
    Put the iPod into disk mode first.
    Putting iPod into disk mode.
    Restoring erases the iPod hard drive, so you will need to reload your songs from iTunes.

  • IPhone 4 does not charge, or turn on.

    My brother gave me his iPhone 4.  He told me it has power issues but it don't turn on, it does not take a charge.  I've seen videos and post about people and there iPhone 4 has the "Blank Screen of Death".  I cannot reboot the iPhone 4.  I'm sure you have to do something like hold the power button and the home button but it don't work.  Can someone tell me how exactly how to do this because it's very confusing.  The iPhone 4 was last turned on last month but it just shut off and stopped working and stopped charging.  I need someone to tell me how to resolve this because I don't have time to go into a Apple Store or AT&T Store.  I'm barrowing a charger from a friend and it is a Belkin iPod/iPhone Charger. It may have soemthing to do with it.  Does the iPhone 4 charger different from any other older model iPhone?  I need someone to help me.  Thanks!

    This happened with my 3GS. What I did is master default it, to do that hold down the lock screen key and the home key at the same time. The little apple symbol should pop up. For some reason, it just shut itself off and wouldn't do anything. Holding down both, from what I understand, kind of resets it without deleting anything. It worked with mine, I hope this helps with yours!

  • Computer does not charge or turn on if battery is below ~10%

    My Late 08 Aluminum Unibody Macbook has recently had a pretty distressing problem.
    If I unplug it from charge, if it runs completely out of battery (so that the computer forces itself to turn off) it will not turn on again. If I plug in the power cord, there is no bright green light (there is a very dim green light). The computer will not turn on even if it is plugged in and the battery is removed.
    The workaround I have discovered is that if I take my battery out of my macbook, and put it into my friend's same-model macbook, I can charge the battery back up to about 12%, and then put it back in my computer and start it up. It will then charge up completely, and I am able to use it as long as I plug it in before it reaches about 10% battery.
    I went to the apple store to try and fix this problem, they checked out my old battery, which seemed fine. They then put a new semi-charged battery they had in the back, and it started up fine (because it had some charge) so I paid for a new battery and left. So sad I was to discover my problem still existed. All of my friends with the unibody macbooks I have are away at college so my traditional method of fixing this problem for myself is unavailable.
    Any ideas on what's going on?

    First, try resetting the SMC:

    Second, try a known-good MagSafe charger. The dim light on the one you have--and that the Mac will not start at all while plugged in without a full battery--makes me suspicious that it's your charger.
    It may also be a problem with the MagSafe port or the motherboard. Hope for the charger.

  • Satellite P300 does not charge

    Hello there.
    I have Toshiba Satellite P300. It's nearly 4 years old.
    However, 3 months ago it has started not to charge battery. I removed battery and left computer only with adaptor.
    Now it does not charge at one, i have to wait until electricity or smth will reach some level to start computer.
    So, please, help if anybody has had some alike problem or knows the reason and what to do.
    Maybe its adaptor problem, or something wrong with connection between adaptor and pc. I don't know and have no money yet to check it.
    Does anybody know what's wrong? Thanks.

    Hi
    Such issues can be related to different reasons;
    - AC adaptor issue
    - Motherboard issue (Im thinking especially about power supply electronic issue)
    But I dont think it could be an AC adaptor malfunction because the notebook can power up after a specific power level has been reached or the notebook can boot up after a longer time being connected to AC adaptor. Is it right?
    Well, it sounds like an mobo issue but this is just an suggestion
    The parts should be checked firstly before replacing

  • Satellite 1950-801 - Battery wireless keybord does not charge no longer

    Toshiba Satellite S1950-801
    The battery from the wireless keybord charge no longer, the powerbutton does not work anymore, what can i do ?
    I know the computer is old, but maby there is a solution for this problem.

    > The battery from the wireless keyboard charge no longer, the power button does not work anymore, what can I do?
    You are not able to power up the notebook?
    hm sounds like a notebooks hardware problem and possibly this is the reason why the external Wlan keyboard does not charge the notebook is dead and therefore the keyboard does not functions
    Why the notebook does not power up?
    Hmmm. goo question. Maybe the AC adaptor is dead and cannot provide power to notebook and notebook battery is dead too.
    This is possible but in most case its not the reason in most cases the motherboard could be faulty
    However, only the notebook technician can check the hardware parts and could provide more details

  • Satellite A300 PSAG8E does not charge

    I have a Toshiba Satalite A300 PSAG8E which does not charge.
    I was handed it a few days ago by someone claiming that it doesn't work or turn on -- vague details.
    Upon receipt it turned on, asked whether to start windows normally or not, then booted absolutely fine, it powered from the mains charger, no problem.
    I left it on for a while doing various tasks.
    I came to it a few days later to find it had turned itself off.
    I powered up again, at which point it asked whether to start windows normally or not. I started normally and it came on fine.
    Since then I have been unable to power it from the mains.
    Why won't it charge now?

    Thanks for your responses so far. Much appreciated. Not to be rude guys, but I thought I was clear enough. However, I can understand the confusion as the situation is unusual.
    The problem is simple:
    When the laptop is plugged into the mains, the battery does not charge. The laptop does not power on. The situation is this: It only does this sometimes.
    What I have tried:
    Wiggling the cable, in all sorts of ways to see if there's a possible connection issue. This does not appear to be the issue. It seems to be simply on or off.
    I tried resetting BIOS to default before the battery went dead last time. Still no power.

    # Make sure the battery has a full charge.
    - No, it has run flat since it charged last. Unable to recharge.
    # Try plugging the AC adapter into the computer.
    - Tried. Nothing.
    # Try plugging the AC adapter into a different outlet.
    - Tried. Nothing.
    # Try pressing the power switch for ten seconds.
    - Tried. Nothing.
    # Make sure the power switch is not physically locked off, like a cover protecting it.
    - Checked.
    # Try removing the battery and the AC adapter, then plug only the AC adapter in and try powering on.
    - Tried. Nothing.
    # Make sure you have the proper AC adapter, and only use the one that shipped with the computer.
    - Yes.
    # Is the computer turning on, but the display is blank or being routed to a monitor that you can't see? If so, try using the FN+F5 keys.
    - No. It is not and does not turn on.
    # If the computer is on, but no display or won't power off, you can press and hold the power button for ten seconds (until it powers off), then try powering on again.
    - No. It is not and does not turn on.
    # Make sure you remove all extra hard ware, especially extra memory even if it shipped that way from the dealer. The memory could be loose, or could have gone bad.
    - Checked. Nothing.
    # Look at the lights on the computer for clues. Are you getting AC power? Is a light blinking? If there is a blinking light it can be an indication that Power supply Micro controller detects an error. In this case please contact ASP (Authorized service partner) in your country.
    - No lights. When battery is in, battery light blinks when you press the power button because the battery is dead.
    What I will try next: Detach the battery and power cord overnight.
    If I manage to get it to power up, update BIOS.
    Any further advice?

    My iphone does not charge except i turn it off

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    Please be more specific about "it wont connect back to the computer" so that appropriate troubleshooting steps can be provided.

  • Satellite A100-166 PSAA9E does not charge the battery

    Hello,
    My laptop does not charge the battery.
    Although Windows Xp recognizes the battery and says charging, the battery is not recharged.
    I tried with a spare battery as i thought the battery was defective, with same results.
    Strange is, when i turn off the laptop the power supply led stays on and blue, even without the power supply atached thus discharging the battery.
    The battery led is always amber but not charging!!!
    What is the matter with the laptop?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Generally there are three different possibilities;
    1) the AC adaptor is faulty
    2) the battery is faulty
    3) the notebooks board electronic (power supply electronic) malfunctions
    So now its necessary to check all this steps to locate the fault.
    You said that you have tested different batteries and the AC adaptor works too.
    So its possible that there is something wrong with the power supply electronic
    In such case there is no much to do as to contact the ASP in your country. The technicians should check the notebook and should run some diagnostic tests
    I recommend contacting the guys and ask for the details and for the further handling Good luck and happy new year.

    Hi
    Please dont use any batteries which are not 100% compatible with your notebook!
    This can damage motherboard and other 3rd notebook parts.
    As far as I know the A100 is a one of the newest Toshiba series and the warranty should be valid.
    For me it sounds a little bit like a motherboards power supply electronic fault.
    Who knows ?:| The notebook check is necessary to locate the malfunction.
    So dont waste the time and contact immediately the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.
    They technicians should check the notebook and should provide a help.
    Good luck

  • TS1367 My charger connects with my macbook with a very faint green light (not the normal orange light) and can maintain the computer turned on but does not charge the battery.

    My charger connects with my computer with a very faint green light (not the normal orange light) and can maintain the computer turned on but does not charge the battery. The power source to keep it on is the power adapter and that it's "Not charging" on the battery settings. And my charger seems to charge other computers fine.
    The part of my mac where the adapter (L-shaped, magnetic) attaches is a bit damaged - a small piece of the white case/body around the part where the adapter attaches is broken off, but that's just an outer damage.
    I don't know what's wrong with my computer, and if anyone has had a similar experience or knows what's going on, it'd be tremendously helpful!
    Thank you!!

    Hi Christopher,
    Doubtful an upgrade would fix a hardware issue. If you are thinking of upgarding to Lion, best to do all necessary maintenance first.
