Re: I've lost Flash Card Function Keys

Ive lost the flash cards that used to drop down at the top of the screen. Tried a few different things including updating the drivers from the website.
At the minute, some of the function keys will work ok, ie brightness,lock - but the energy saving key and the wireless key no longer work.

Hi Mafustokes,
Which drivers you have updated exactly?
The Flash Cards will be controlled from Value Added Package and you should update this tool. Dont know what notebook you have but you can get it here for example:

  • Lost function key special functions - flash cards?

    I seem to have lost the function key special functions which I think is related to flash cards. The function LED illuminates but pressing a function key has no effect (brightness, hibernate, monitor switch etc.).
    How can I restore the function. I can't find anything under Toshiba Assit utility.
    Thank you
    Richard

    Hello Richard
    When you press FN button the Flash Cards should be shown at the top of the display. If nothing happens you can try to restart Flash Cards. This option you can find under START > All Programs > TOSHIBA > Utilities > Restart Flash Cards.
    Please try it. If this will not helps please restart your notebook. Be so nice and post the result.

  • NB305 - FN key no longer working with Flash Cards

    I acquired my NB305 last week, and the FN key was working such that when you held it down the Flash Card appeared at the top of my screen.   However, that association has since ceased.   The FN does work for other purposes, and I turned on the feature with the Flash Cards to allow the mouse cursor to activate them.   so both the key itself and the Flash Cards are working, but not together.
    I have searched high and low and I can find no way to reassociate the key and the Flash Cards.   This forum is my last hope for solving this riddle.  I did search the board, but I could find no reference to this problem.
    Any assistance you may be able to provide is very much appreciated,
    -Neil

    start menu> all programs> toshiba> utitilies>settings for flash cards. when the window comes up check the box for allow the mouse to bring up the cards. also make sure the box next to keep the cards on top of other windows so they alway show up where you can see them if you have other programs open. when you have problems bringing them up with the FN key try the same thing as before but instead of settings for flash cards select reset flash cards

  • Lost all visual indicators, function keys, etc. on T500 (Type 2082)

    I think CCleaner is the culprit as soon after running that, I lost all my onscreen indicators (volume, brightness, battery meter in the system tray, etc.) as well as functionality - volume up and down work, but mute does not.  Blue Thinkvantage button doesn't work.  Also, none of the Function keys now work.  I re-installed software - the HotKey manager, the ThinkVantage toolbox and have done all updates, but still the T500 refuses to cooperate.  I'm running Win7 32bit.  If anyone has some advice to get things running correctly again, it'd be most appreciated.
    thanks,
    Dan
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well making some progress.  Once I tracked down the HotKey Client Loader dependencies (ThinkPad PM Service, which was also disabled), got it to start.  So now, the mute button and volume indicator are working.  The ThinkVantage button now works (though I'm not sure why I really care that much, since that bloatware takes forever to load). 
    The function keys are working, but still no visual indicator for brightness and the Power Manager Gauge icon in the SysTray is still not showing.
    Any more clues?
    thanks

  • Using Function Keys and Alt Key in Flash Video

    I am attempting to create an eLearning video, which includes instructions, a "try it yourself" section, and then a quiz.  Our software that I am trying to simulate uses Function keys (F6 to bring up specific windows) as well as shortcut keys (Alt-S takes the user to a certain field, Alt-P conducts a Patient Search, etc).  However, I have found that when running the video using IE, the browser takes over the focus and these function keys do not control the video. 
    These functions work fine in Google Chrome (not approved for use by the company) and when the video is published as .exe, but I need this to work in IE. 
    Is there anyway to retain the focus on the flash video for the entire video?
    Thanks so much for any help!

    Here is the Preference dialog that Lilybiri was referring to where you can change the key assignments.
    When finished recording, you can click the Restore Defaults button to set everything back the way it was.

  • Lost USB 2.0 card function and new startup disk issue

    I have recently developed a problem with lost USB 2.0 expansion card function after my MacPro awakens from sleep. My Apple USB ports are maintained without interruption. No recent software/hardware additions but maybe a recent OS security download or Apple software update.
    My USB card function returns after a reboot only to be lost again by any sleep. On reboot I now notice a ? folder prior to my Grey apple logo and normal startup. This finding occurred at the same time as the USB card issue.
    I am running 10.6.8 on a dual core intel Xeon. I had previously lost this same USB 2.0 card function with sleep after a 10.5.1 install.  I think it was fixed in 10.5.2 upgrade. Tried resetting PRAM but no change. Could this be a motherboard battery failure?
    Any suggestions for me?
    John B.

    I am experiencing the same issue. And I also had the same problem back at 10.5.1 as you did. I will turn off the sleep function for now, but this is ridiculous!
    My system only has the internal (Apple supplied) OEM USB card/ports. Nothing installed by myself. So this is insane to think that this problem keeps popping up. Ever since I updated to 10.6.8, all of my USB connections go down after sleep. But that's not all, I cannot even connect many of our external drives to the USB ports. When I connect them, they power up, but nothing ever appears on the desktop, nor can they be found with disk utility. They connect just fine with every other Mac in our office.
    This is all exactly the same as back with 10.5.1, when 10.5.2 came out the problem was solved.
    Apple, please fix this!!!

  • Recovering lost deleted data from compact flash card

    Hi Any help here would be greatly appreciated...
    I filmed some footage onto a compact flash card(sony fx_1 onto a sony memory recording unit/transcend flash card)...all appeared to be working fine untill i got home and the card wouldnt be read..I took it into a shop for data recovery and he managed to return, what we think are the files...
    But so far cannot open these files, they are Unix Executable File, does anyone know how to open these files?
    Or has anyone had a similar experience or success at recovering media files...they were recorded as HDV format...
    Cheers for any suggestions (client is most unamused at the moment)
    Simon

    Make sure they have the correct file type extension on the file name. (eg if quicktime, they would be .mov)

  • Toshiba Satellite C850-F12S Function Keys not working

    I recently formatted my laptop after the OS was corrupted by a virus and reinstalled windows 7 but now my Function keys that enable me to adjust brightness, volume and turn on wireless are not functioning, They only work when in BIOS setup and even when I tried to enable them to be standard F1-12 or special function keys they still dont work after starting windows. This computer has no flash cards for toshiba and i dont know which drivers to look for for this specific model. I also lost toshiba eco-utility and its player. How do i get all this back without losing my data?I have partitioned my hard disk.

    Hi Eldorado
    Thanks for your suggestion. Have done as you said but still have the problem.
    I've managed to get rid of the TouchED error dialogue by uninstalling the Touchpad on/off utility, but I can't get the function keys to work again. The problem appears to be that the Common Modules drivers are not reinstalling properly - the software (thotkey.exe) that operates these has to be within this. I have tried extracting the cab files for the Common Modules but nothing with let me into Toshiba's cab files to see if they are there so that I can copy them across manually.
    I can live without the function keys on my machine, but this is a pain - especially when I'm sure the problem has a simple solution.
    Cheers

  • Some function keys are not working on my Portege R830

    Like others, I have a new Portege R830 and experienced the sudden unexplained loss of functionality of the 13 function keys. My os is a native windows 7 64bit install, with office 2010 installed afterwards. I have the SSD model.
    I followed the instructions, removing TVAP and re-installing, and I have both VAP and flashcards operational. I used the USA site drivers for the latest set (the Australian and European driver sets are older versions and different).
    Most, but not all, of the function keys are now working again. What isn't working are as follows:
    - F12 functionkey not operating
    - volume up and down keys not operating - what I am most interested in - any suggestions on how to get functional again please?
    also, on re-installing VAP, I lost functionality on ecobutton. Any suggestions on how to get working again?
    thanks in anticipation

    Hi
    You are on the right way dude the VAP and Flash Card Support Utility controls the FN buttons. If you have an European notebook model, I would recommend using the drivers from Toshiba European driver page but generally speaking there should not be a difference in the software
    However, in my case restarting the Flash Cards helps to get back the FN buttons functionality. The Flash Cards can be found in All Programs -> Toshiba -> Flash Cards.
    So check if restart would help you.
    Regarding the Eco button: ECO Utility controls this button tooso would recommend installing/reinstalling this software beside the VAP

  • Flash Cards do not work on my Satellite L750

    Hello,
    I own a Toshiba Satellite L750 PSK1WA-03C00R and my flash cards do not work, the function keys work, but my flash cards do not.
    This model does not come with the Flash Card Support Utility, it does however come with the Value Added Package.
    I have uninstalled, CCleaned and reinstalled and repeated mulitple times, trying to get this to work properly. I have also restarted after each of these steps.
    I can't figure the problem out and thought that I'd see what you guys' recommend before I resort to getting Toshiba's support services.
    I also do not want to have to resort to a system restore, but, if I really have to and have no choice, I will when I can.
    I hope someone may be able to help me and do look forward to what support you can offer me.
    Thanks in advance.
    -Chris.

    Hello Pedro,
    I have checked on thses settings and there is the option to allow the mouse to bring up the flash cards, this will bring up the flash cards if I would like to do that, I would however love to use the keys seeing as the mouse option seems to close any games I may have running and take me to desktop and this is not preferrable.
    There is no "Reset Flash Cards" option, I have serched through many files and done many serches for this option and no luck, which is a shame.
    Do you have any other suggestions? I would love to have this work.
    The reason I did the reinstall was to get my brightness keys to work again. Sure, this fixed the problem, but now I have no flash cards. Any suggestions would make me a very, very happy man.
    Thanks in advance.
    -Chris

  • Problem with Plugging in Compact Flash Card

    I am having a problem now when I plug my compact flash card in to download pictures.  When I plug the card in, the AutoPlay window pops up, as it always does.  However, I also get another window that pops up and says "Lightroom must quit because catalog named Lightroom Catalog.lrcat is not writeable and cannot be opened.   This could be caused by incorrect permissions or because another Lightroom application is using the catalog.  You may select a different catalog the next time you run Lightroom  by holding down the control key while Lightroom launches."
    This problem started yesterday.  I had just upgraded to LR 3.5 the day before the problem started.
    Couple of other things:
    1.  Lightroom was not launched at the time I plug in the card and this problem has occurred.   In fact, I just restarted my system a shortwhile ago to test this problem, and it happened again.
    2.  My Lightroom catalog is actually called Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat, not Lightroom Catalog.lrcat.
    3.  I have never had my system set up to automatically launch Lightroom when my card is plugged in.
    4.  I have not actually downloaded any pictures from a card for about 2 weeks before I did yesterday, so I cannot say for certain whether or not LR 3.5 is the cause of the problem and perhaps something else is.  But the fact is that I did upgrade to LR 3.5 a few days ago.
    5.  Once I close both the AutoPlay window and the LR dialogue window, I can launch LR 3.5 with no problem and import pictures as I normally do.

    Your description of what you've done and the code you show does not match what the tutorial says to do and what code to use... (there is no stopAndGoTo() function in Flash).
    Right-click the second frame on the upper layer labeled Actions and select Actions. Copy and paste the code below to make our preloader functional.
    if (_root.getBytesTotal() != _root.getBytesLoaded()){
    gotoAndPlay(1);
    bar_mc._xscale=(_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100;
    loader_txt.text=Math.round((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100)+"%";
