P505 Widnow 7 After Recovery, All Tosbiba HW driver report unsigned driver and no Window 7 Update

Hello,
I just clean up the HD and use the recovery media that created after I get the system to recover my wife's Satellite P505-S8980 system due to some virus causing the system problems. I recover the system to a brand new harddisk with all the default options. Window 7 recovered successfully.
After the finial boot, the screen turn to lower resolutions and once login, I went to device manager report that the Video, Wifi, Ethernet and SD Card reader were all unsigned driver and do not able to start them. I then try to do F8 during reboot to bypass driver verification, window working just fine. But if I boot it normally, it will have problem with those drivers. I think also try to install newer driver from Support webstie, those driver have the same problem.
I was trying to do a Window update, it always fail to update. How can it be fixed? Both driver problem and Window 7 update. I guess this problem must be linked.

..use the recovery media that created after I get the system to recover
I would do the very same thing again, that is, restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. (You can do it from the hard disk directly. See p. 62 in the User's Guide.)
If the trouble occurs before making any changes, then there is almost certainly a hardware problem. To be sure, you could reflash the BIOS.

My 2009 MacBook Pro keeps restarting even after I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled OSX.

About a month ago, my laptop started to randomly turn off: I would be using either Chrome, Photoshop (the free CS2 version available from Adobe's website) or Powerpoint, and the screen would go blank. I would then have to hold the power button for a while until the little light at the front of the computer would flicker and it would restart. I brought it to the Mac Store where they tested it and said it looked fine. They suggested I erase my hard drive and reinstall OSX as a precaution.
Fast forward a month, I have been very busy with work and hadn't been able to fix this problem. It wasn't that bad, only once every couple of days, sometimes more, sometimes less, I could work despite this problem.
Then, I installed OSX Mavericks. The installation started in the morning, but, like an idiot, I paused it to go to work. Later on, I completed the installation, it looked fine, but then all day long my laptop would suddenly restart and go to a grey screen that said in multiple languages "Your laptop restarted because of a problem, press any button to continue the restart." A computer technician friend of mine checked it out and said it was probably due to the badly installed OSX and suggested that I erase my hard drive and reinstall OSX.
I backed up all my files, erased the hard drive and reinstalled OSX. Everything looked fine.
Then it happened again.
Any ideas of why this is happening?

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Safari opens but will not load the page after I erased my hard drive and reinstalled yosemite. Anyone have a solution? I have to restart for safari to open and load.

Hi everyone.
I recently erased and reinstalled Yosemite on my iMac 27 (model late 2013). After I reinstalled everything i've noticed that when it goes to sleep/nap and when I come back to it and open the browser (safari) it will not load. I have to restart the whole iMac for it to work. I've erased and reinstalled again and I still have the same issues. Can anybody help?

How to retrive all available disk drive ID from windows OS??

I plan to design a "file chooser" by myself because
the one provided by JDK1.3 has a serious bug:
when the signed applet open a file chosser, the program will crash.
I want to list all available disk drive ID.
Does anyone know how to do this??
Thanks

My guess is that you will have to implement a native call. Check out the Windows function GetLogicalDrives()

Toshiba A500-1H1 after recovery on new hard drive cannot boot

Hi, I had to replace hard drive because old one is broken. I used recovery media I've created after opening laptop first time as you suggested with Toshiba support. Recovery is fine, but during windows configuration I had information about not certified signatures and windows cannot boot. There is error suggesting that maybe hardware was changed. So my question is ? Buying Toshiba laptops I cannot change my harddrive, so if any part of Toshiba is broken I have to buy new notebook ? Or maybe I can access to my Windows764bit key and download from microsoft windows and install and configure this by myself ?
Please help, I need this notebook for work ! Best Regars,Paul

Hi, thanks for your reply - I FOUND A SOLUTION, a quick description about my problems is below. 1. First of all. My Toshiba HDD is broken in that way that it cannot be booted. I did a couple low level tests (one took about 90 hours !!) and surface is free from bad sectors. Disk is in very good condition, but I suppose controller in disk is broken because everything is installed correctly, recovery takes about 20 minutes and after rebooting I have typical information about problem with reading boot information, BCD, 0xC000... And so on. So disk is working now as storage on usb. This disk was 320GB - original from Toshiba. 2. Then I tried use new one disk: Samsung 1TB. And I had this problem with booting again, but info from windows was about not certified drivers (when it tried install WiFi, and other drivers). Then I post this post here, but meanwhile I contact my support in Poland and they suggested me there can be a problem with DISK SIZE - they said this is TOO BIG FOR RECOVERY.. That was very strange for me - I heard first time the problem can be with too much space, not with not enough space Anyway I decided to buy new SSD 250GB (smaller than original Toshiba) hard drive. My recovery took me about 10 minutes. I have SATA3 SSD but Toshiba support SATA1, but anyway my computer seems to work 3x faster than before
So the problem was with original disk, controller (boot sectors maybe), and with too large new disk so Toshiba recovery disk couldn't manage.
Thank you for your concern. Best Rgards !

After install all my programs take on Adobe icon and cannot be accessed

I have installed Adobe Reader X, XI, and then 9.5.0 and this is happening everytime and I have to uninstall. I don't know what version I originally had but when the Reader X (10.1.4) was installed or updated this happened and now I cannot open PDF files. This is unreal!
This happened a few days ago while installing Zinio (the magazine reader). I have been searching and searching the Adobe site for answers but I am back to square one.

I don't know how many times I have posted this.
You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you may download the offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

TS1363 The "ipod has been detected but could not be identified properly...." message occurs when I plug it in. This started happening after having replaced the hard drive and operating system. Is there any way to fix this problem? I have tried all the

Ever since having to replace my hard drive on my laptop and also the operating system, I cannot get my ipod to work with my laptop. I continually get this message. I have tried every troubleshooting procedure repeatedly and also have tried all the posts on the support communities. Can anyone help?

Nevermind that first part as I forgot that nothing shows up for the Nano at all in Device Manager,
The 2nd half of my reply still applies:
Otherwise, try uninstalling all USB root controlllers from your system, rebooting your PC, and reconnecting your Nano. This root controller drivers will automatically be re-installed upon reboot.

I lost my bookmarks recently and have not been able to recover. Even after trying all that was suggested on blogs, websites and on mozilla/help

help please

Cor-el.
This does not work. I have tried these options. I need another method (IE: firefox sends me a file with all my bookmakrs). Why did my bookmarks disappear in first place? This is outrageous. I am very disappointed with it - this is it for me with this browser and if I have to I will make sure to share this on the internet as much as I can.
I have been a customer for a long time. But I have lost some very important information without doing anything, but trusting my ex-prefered browser.

Mountain Lion is missing, after installing an external hard drive and Carbon Copy Clone.

I have a mid-2007 desktop iMac Model MA877LL, 2.4 ghz/1gb/320gb, with 4 GB memory, upgraded to Mountain Lion 9/7/2012 at an Apple store (now 10.8.5). I just installed a new external hard drive Fantom Drive 1T G-Force Mega Disk Firewire 800, then installed Carbon Copy Clone successfully. However, I could not get the clone to boot from the backup volume. Mountain Lion showed in both Macintosh HD and External Hard Drive at that point. After working through many steps with CCC, trying to get it to boot, the final suggestion was to try installing Mountain Lion onto the backup disk via the Mac App Store Installer. As my Mountain Lion was installed at an Apple store, there's no record of it on line and I can't find an installer, although I've been doing updates as they're issued. Per article, "OS X: Installing OS X on an external volume", I erased and reformatted the storage device. Now, checking my Macintosh HD, Mountain Lion is gone. How do I get it back?

Are you saying that your internal HD doesn't have an operating system on it either, meaning you can't boot your iMac at all? Or that the external was also named "Macintosh HD" in which case, having been erased and reformatted (hopefully with a GUID partition table), you'll need to clone your internal to it once again.

Steps after you replace the hard drive and add RAM

I like to tear things apart. I'm gonna put a bigger HD in my 12" G4 powerbook (160GB), and boosting the RAM. Got the physical stuff down. Not a computer operator type at all though. So when I fire this puppy back up, is there hard drive partitioning to do, do ya have to hold down the C key while it boots up. Anybody got a link that walks ya through the steps. Gonna do the same to my black macbook 2 GHz intel machine and lookin for an "after" link for that as well.
Thanks in advance,
JC

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
You have a couple of choices. If you have an external hard drive with a firewire connection that has a bootable backup, hold the option key down when you boot up, it will show you that drive, choose it, and it will boot from it. Bring up disk utility, choose the new hard drive, erase it, giving it a name and choosing mac OS X extended (journaled). You can then highlight the drive name you just created, and under Partition check to ensure under options that it's the Apple partition map. If you only want one partition for the whole drive, you can then use a program like SuperDuper to copy the contents of your external hard drive backup to the new internal hard drive.
If you have one of the TechTool programs, you may want to run the disk analysis to ensure the new hard drive checks out.
If you don't have a firewire-based external backup, use your original OS X disk to boot, and when the menu bar comes up, choose disk utility, erase/partition the drive, then continue with the installation. Then download the combo version of the latest OS X update for your Tiger/Leopard/etc version (the combo version has all prior updates), repair disk permissions, install the combo update, and repair disk permissions again. Then do your software update (click on the blue apple on the menu bar) to pick up any other upgrades you need. The reason to install the combo update is sometimes software update flubs the install, and you don't need to deal with weird issues with the base OS X system.

HT4847 Just used ICLOUD and backed up everything on my IPAD2 except ITUNES which is synced with my laptop, but cloud says backup was only 263mb how do I know that all of my mail, game apps , photos, and all other apps was backed up? And how do I update

ICloud backup on my IPAD2 only says 263mb backed up, did it include all apps?

None of your iTunes downloads are included in a backup, neither to the cloud nor on iTunes - an iCloud restore would redownload what it can from the store (e.g. apps that are still in your country's store, and if you haven't changed countries since buying them), an iTunes restore would pick them up your iTunes downloads from the relevant part of your iTunes library (Apps, Music etc). Only the apps content/settings are in the actual back up - you can see which apps that you are backing up to the cloud via Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > device name
If you haven't already done so then you should copy any iTunes downloads that aren't in your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, and take your own copy of any important documents/photos - as long as you've set their apps to backup to the cloud then they should be included in that, but it's best to have your own copy as well.
You could also take a backup on iTunes (File > Devices > Back Up) - that should take up a similar size as the cloud backup does (as it doesn't include any of your iTunes downloads or the contents of the Music and Videos apps). After you are happy that the update has gone through ok then you can delete the backup (though ideally you'd take a regular iTunes backup as well) via the Devices tab in Edit > Preferences in iTunes.
Emails are not included in a backup, only the email account's settings are. Also photos that were synced from a computer are not included, nether are the contents of the Music and Videos app.

USB Ports on 3 month old Satellite C655-S5049 do not work-even after Recovery to "Out-of-Box" state

Hello - Hoping someone can help with another suggestion- it doesn't look good.
Both USB ports on my wife's 3 month old Satellite C655-S5049 are non-functional with any USB device. Flash drives, wireless mouse, and external hard drive (powered) that all work on all of my other computers, do not work in either of this laptop's USB ports.
This problem seems to have developed gradually, and became noticeable previously as non-responsiveness in the wireless mouse, which gradually became a concern, with the computer appearing to freeze or lock-up - probably because of the number of times the mouse was clicked on shortcuts and executables before something happened.
The ports are now completely "dead"- no recognition of anything inserted once the computer is up and running.
There appears to be a thermal component involved, since I was able to get the devices recognized and working for up to a minute when booting the computer with the devices in the ports after it had been off for several hours after I did the default state recovery. The flash drive and mouse were recognized, drivers loaded message, but they then went to "unplugged" before I could get the cursor moving. I was able to access the flash drive, since I did it as soon as the driver loaded, but then it disappeared ("un-plugged" itself in the driver loaded message box). I can also get them recognized from this COLD boot state when I immediately plug them in once Windows 7 (64) loads, but they quickly disappear. If I wait a few minutes before re-booting, they flash during the Windows boot, but drop-out before it completes. If I wait 3-4 hours to re-boot, they flash (are recognized) for about a minute (Windows completely loads), but then they drop out.
I tried all of the suggestions on this board (and others) before doing a Recovery to Factory Default state. I have tried it with the original version 1.20 Bios, and with the version 1.50 Bios update. All driver updates have been downloaded and installed. The laptop does occasionally lock-up at the Toshiba screen during boot, and is verrrry slow in some operations (2 hours to do the recovery discs). The only other noticeable problem (at this time) is an occasional drop-out of wireless (Atheros AR9285) connectivity, which I have been blaming on the router since it is sporadic and infrequent (not consistent with the thermal argument). These problems are all after the Factory Default State recovery operation, so my assumption is that they are hardware based.
Any suggestions for a solution? This is a standard spec Satellite C655-S5049 that I was considering adding another 2GB memory to, but now I am unsure of its' future. A laptop cooler that runs from a USB port seems counter-productive.
I am technically capable, so you can be much briefer in your response than I have been in trying to fully detail the problems. This isn't the NVidia chip, but it does bring back memories of laptops past.
Thanks for any help,
G

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME MODEL. I GOT THE SERVICE
MANUAL AND I'M THINKING TO OPEN IT AND SEE IF THERE'S SOME PHYSICAL BAD CONNECTION
INSIDE. BUT LIKE YOU SAID. IT'S ONLY THREE MONTHS OLD.!!! I DON'T WANT TO RUIN THE WARRANTEE.
BUT THIS IS VERY FRUSTATING. I WANDER IF TOSHIBA DOES THIS ON PURPUSE.!!! KEEP IN TOUCH AND
IF YOU NEED THE SERVICE MANUAL CONTACT ME AT [email protected]
THANK YOU.!!!!

I use private browsing and passowords not remembered. yet after closing all firefox windows, i can access facebook and hotmail w/o my login info being requested

it used to ask me for them when i re-opened a window after closing all the previous ones!

Are you automatically reopening windows from the previous session via session restore?
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
You can set the <b>browser.sessionstore.privacy_level</b> pref to 2 (never) or 1 (non-HTTPS) on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable saving cookies via session restore.
The browser.sessionstore.privacy_level_deferred pref is used when you do not reopen the previous session automatically via "Show my windows and tabs from last time" and uses the same values

HT201316 This is ridiculous - I am using bootcamp and after waiting over 2 hrs to download this OS, and attempt to install, I get an error message - no recovery partition. So much for user-friendly MAC.

I am now advised by the links to ' wipe my bootcamp partition, and reinstall SnowLeopard (you are kidding..) AND
re down load Mountain Lion (2 hr + again - are you joking? ) THEN recreate my bootcamp partition (im using win XP on this).
Wow thanks Apple ! That sounds like a great way to spend my next weekend.

Did the installer get deleted? If it fails to install, I didn't think it would get deleted. Check the Applications folder.
See, What to do if the installer warns that no Recovery System can be created,
in this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
You can create a recovery hd on another drive and install on the startup drive (if your drive is formatted correctly).
Otherwise, you can install Mountain Lion on an external drive.
