Powerline Adaptor Question / Volume button

hi there, got BT Vision a few days ago. You know the plug socket that is on the powerline adaptor whats that for? Can i plug anythig in that like a plug? as its quite wide you cant plug in next to it so perhaps thats what its for?
also my controller works fine, every button, but volume up makes it go to a weird teletext thing and volume down switches it to analogue TV which is a bit weird. any ideas?

You can use the plug socket on the power line for anything. Its there to replace the one you have used to power the device.
Regarding the volume buttons, it sounds like the remote is programmed incorrectly for your television and use need to enter the correct code for the remote so that it send the right signals to the televison for volume up/down. The list of the codes, and how to programme the remote, are in teh vision instruction manual - alternatively post back, on this forum, with teh make and model and someone might be able to supply teh correct code.

Satellite U500: Volume + button stick ON when connected to AC adaptor

I have a problem with the touch buttons on my U500. I have already returned the first notebook I bought for exchange.
The issue is as follows:
When the power cord is plugged in (regardless if connected to the wall) the "Volume +" button will stick ON.
The volume will then continue to increase, it can not be muted or turned down as the + continues to repeat.
Without the power cord inserted the buttons works as expected (normally).
I have done fresh install from recovery disks - Not fixed (running Vista)
Then another fresh install and Win7 upgrade this new PC is having the same problem.
At first I had assumed a hardware fault (the new PC did work fine for a while).
But now the second PC has the identical symptoms I suspect a software/driver issue.
I have seen some suggestion for similar issues to:
Re-install "Toshiba Common Modules" but I can't find this on the support site for U500 in Australia.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all.

Thank you kindly :)
Bios was ver 1.4 , upgrading to ver 1.6 appears to have fixed the problem.
I hadn't updated the bios as the support site for Win 7 doesn't list the bios.
Although the "standard" downloads page does.
Thanks again, if the symptoms return... I'll post back.
Cheers.

Ipod Touch 5.1.1 update lock and volume buttons wont work.

So I just updated my ipod touch 4G to the ios 5.1.1 version and ever since my volume and lock buttons aren't working/responding. The funny thing is, a lot of people are posting the same question but they get the same answer from the same person that says to hold the lock and home button when everybody specifally states that the lock and volume buttons aren't working so those answers are useless. I tried resetting all the settings to factory from the settings menu but still the same problem. What should I do? Is it a bug for every new updater?

Try changing the DNS server on the iPod. See:

Using Time Capsule to create a wifi network from a Powerline Adaptor

OK, before I ask my question, I just have to 'paint the picture'.
I live in a work residential complex, with wifi provided. However this wifi is awfully weak, to the point that I can only sit in one spot to receive it, and then it still drops out. I tried using an airport express to extend the signal, but the wifi router won't allow it.
Through the company that provide the service, I am know using a powerline adaptor ( you know the sort; one ethernet cable from router to adaptor, and another from adaptor in room to laptop) and I get broadband.
I'd like to find some way of getting wifi from that, to my mbp, iphone and appletv all on the same network.
Ok, the crux, I want to buy a Time Capsule, if I do so, by plugging the ethernet cable from powerline into it, will I be able to create a wifi network that 1. Allows devices to connect to it, and 2. Access the Broadband service.
Hope that's clear ;-)

Yes and yes.

IdeaPad Z370 and Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit - problem with volume buttons

I recently bought my new Lenovo IdeaPad Z370 without operating system and installed Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit (the pre-installed system was FreeDOS which I decided to remove).
Nearly all is working fine. The only exception are the volume keys: pressing them does start adjusting the volume, but causes a system problem. If I press sound up, the speakers move to immediately to the maximum volume and behave as it I was continuing to press the button.
The same happens when pressing the volume down or sound off buttons. It is then not possible any more to use the keyboard or type anyting, nor change the volume using the touchpad and Ubuntu's speaker symbol. It is also not possible any more to shut down the computer using Ubuntu's virtual shutdown button, but with the real button on the computer.
The touchpad is still working and after putting the computer briefly into standby the problem is solved to the degree that it is possible to use the keyboard etc. again, and the sound volume can be adjusted again with Ubuntu's speaker symbol.
I guess this must be a driver issue that ubuntu 11.1 does not support the buttons.
As well, the one-key-theatre button and the thermal-management button do not work. Pressing them, just nothing happens (except that the light up).
I should mention that installing Ubuntu apparently deleted the partitions including the one-key recovery button. At least this key does now only work like a second power-button. Unfortunately I did not receive the User-guide with the computer but only downloaded from the internet after installing Ubuntu.
I wonder whether apart from adjusting the volume buttons, it might be possible to get the one-key-theatre button and thermal-management-button operational for ubuntu too, and whether the one-key-recovery button could work under ubuntu too. Gparted tells me that I have 2 small partitions of 3.9 GiB each, labeled "extended" and "windows swap", and one of 1.02 GiB which is not in use apart from the main drive of course.

The issue you are encountering is due to driver absence in Linux.
The driver for Linux is not available. Hope, Ubuntu new version have more applications and drivers.

Tanuj

Volume buttons interfere with firefox plugins

Hey there ThinkPad community!
Recently I have noticed that when using the Adobe Reader Plugin for firefox the volume won't change anymore upon pressing the volume buttons. The onscreen display pops up showing the current volume yet it won't increase or decrease. When pressing the mute button nothing happens at all. This behavior only occurs when the focus is set on the plugin (i.e. I have clicked somewhere on the PDF)
Also when I am watching a flash video like this one: German News (and again the focus is on the plugin) odd things like video pausing will happen whenever I press or hold one of the three volume buttons. At least then the volume does change.
Is this a problem of firefox or is it one of the ThinkPad drivers?
I am using firefox 11.0
Adobe Acrobat plugin version 10.1.1.33
Shockwave Flash plugin version 11.1.102.62
on a X201t with Windows 7 Professional 64bit SP1
I will tell You the versions of the "volume button control programs" if You tell me which ones those are.

Hello TheMan and welcome to community,
The issue is with the software compatibility with firefox.
Kindly install the updated hot key and power management driver and check if it resolve the issue.
Best Regards,
Tanuj

I have an iphone4 that is 2 and 1/2 yrs old and the volume buttons on the side of the phone no longer work, therefore I cannot hear people who call me very well unless I use a handsfree and also when listening to music or watching footage, I cannot alter

My iphone4 is 2 and 1/2 yrs old, works fine other then the volume buttons just stopped working all of sudden. This function not working means I cannot hear people very well when they call because I cannot turn the volume up and when watching footage i.e. music video or film, I cannot turn volume up or down. This has meant I cannot use my phone like I used to, therefore not fit for purpose. Questions is - Is Apple, under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 obliged to repair/replace my phone for free?
When I went into my Bromley store today I was told because the phone is not under the 12 month warranty Apple could not help me or I could pay in excess of £100 to get phone repaired, is this right?

So basically if a iphone has a fault after the 1 year warranty period is over, there is nothing the consumer can do but purchase a new phone??
Pretty much. Except that Apple will replace it for a fixed fee that is far less than the cost of a new phone. In the US the replacement cost for an iPhone 4 is $149. It is comparable in the UK. Unless you can prove that the fault was present at the time of purchase. A switch wearing out would probably be considered normal wear and tear, not a "fault".

How much would a repair for an unresponsive volume button cost for an iPad 3?

The volume button for decreasing the volume as stopped working and has been unresponsive to restarting the my 3rd gen iPad, and doing a hard shut down. My AppleCare warranty for my device has expired and I would like to know how much a repair for this would cost. It should be noted that the button for increasing he volume still works but since the buttons are technically one button on the device my assumption is that both buttons would have to be replaced. If you could shed some light on whether I should repair my iPad or buy the iPad Air, (whichever one seems cheapest or most cost effective in the long run). Thank you for your time and an answer to my question would be gladly appreciated!

http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/repair/other/ links to the Apple iPad repair page. Out of warranty replacement of an iPad 3 is $299.00. The device will be replaced, and the replacement will come with a 90 day warranty.

Change how many % does the up/down volume button jump

Hello!
I know that this question isn't very important nor many people have thought of that issue.. but I find it a little bit irretating.
So..my question is : Are there settings (if yes - where are located) for adjusting how many bars does the volume change when pressed the up/down volume button. For example when I press the up/down volume button the volume raises or decreases with 2 % from the 100 % maximum.I would like to change it to lets say 10 % ..
The model of my laptop is A500-1C0.I am sure that this function though (if it exist) could be reached in the same way on many other models.My operating system is Windows 7 Home.
Thank you in advance.

Realised on the way home last night that the radio presets would be stored in the MuVo2 and not the FM remote so no battery in the FM remote.
And yes my guess would be that the button cell would be for when there is no AC power and no LiIon battery installed.
Maybe it's a smilar deal to the flat cell battery on PC motherboards.
Can last years.

Missing volume button

Hi!
I would like to ask, that if I have lost one of my volume buttons(as funny as it sounds), than I am able to get somewhere a new one? Or being a rare spare part, I won't be able to find or get one in any kind of service.
Question number two: This problem includes guaranty?

Your best option is to contact a nokia care point and discuss the problem with them. They can fit spare parts and decide if it will be covered under warranty or not.

Volume buttons and mute button don't function in Windows 8 64-bit

Almost funny, I also have installed Windows 8 64-bit on my ThionkPad SL500 (clean install). I have read other people complaining about "Volume buttons and mute button don't function". This is exactly the same problem I have. I have found no exact procedure about what software to install to make this work. Instead people refer to other threads that often end in some desert... So, does anyone (Lenovo?) have a clear answer on what software to install (and links to those drivers please...) :-? And, yes, I have tried installing different software packages by following threads, but nothing has worked just yet... So, clear instructions / links, please :-)
Thanks,
Niels

I recently found this information on the micorsoft troubleshooting website and thought of your post, not sure if you had found a solution but hopefully it is helpful.
My keyboard volume controls suddenly stopped working
If the volume controls on your keyboard stops working, check the Human Interface Device Access service on your computer to make sure it is set to Automatic.
In the Start menu, type View local services.
From the Search Results list, select View local services.
In the Services dialog box, locate Human Interface Device Access. Make sure the status is set to “Started.” If it is not started, click Start the service.
Right-click Human Interface Device Access and select Properties.

Random volume increase and volume button

Hi there. I've been experiencing random volume increases while running and listening to music on my iphone 4S. The volume will sometimes increase to max level and occasionally won't even reduce if I manually try to reduce it. I've contacted apple and did a reset of all settings and restore and the problem seemed to occur less often but still happens.
Recently, after reading about others having this issue, I read that it could be the in-line mic headphones that cause this issue. I tried switching headphones but the issue still occurs. I also read that someone had an issue wherein if the just touched or wiggled the volume button that it would result in the volume icon appearing on the screen and would also cause the volume to rise on its own. I've discovered that I have a similar issue in that if I wiggle the reduce volume button I get the ringer icon to appear and that the volume will automatically increase on its own without actually pushing the button.
Anyway, do folks think that these issues are related?
I will be taking it in to a genius bar in a couple of weeks but was wondering if others have had this issues and if you folks think its a hardware issue since I can reproduce it by wiggling the volume down button.
Thanks for any feedback.
