Re: Portege R500: Contros button doesn't work after installing update

After installing the most recent version of Toshiba's Value Added Package, the two buttons (toshiba assist and backlight on/off) do not work properly: they open instead a firefox browser window.
I assume there is something to configure in the "optimisation" section of Toshiba Assist.
When I open the program "Toshiba buttons functions" (sorry for the puny translation, in Spanish it's called: "Funciones de botones de Toshiba") all the entries are blank and I have to indicate the Url of the program supposed turning off my LCD's backlight...
I have no clue where to find this executable.
Can anybody help me?

Thanks for the response.
I hope I don't have to use such an extreme solution. Mainly because I *really* don't have time for restoring an OS. Furthermore, if I have to restore everything every time I update the computer: what is the point of updating?
There must be a more subtle solution... don't you think?

  • Power button doesn't work after new update...and that's the least of it

    Ever since I updated my 4S with the new software my phone has had so many problems:
    Power button no longer works. I have to hold both the home button down and the power button to "reset" my phone to turn it off.
    I am having to do this CONSTANTLY b/c my phone freezes up ALL the time. When texting, using maps, other apps. Sometimes I can't get the freaking thing to even unlock. Texting is a disaster. Half the time they don't go through and when my phone freezes up for the millionth time that day and I reset, I later find out that my freaking texts didn't even go through. I HATE THE NEW SOFTWARE HELP!!

    If you are able to hold your home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time to reset the phone, you should be able to power it off just fine...

  • Blue ThinkVanta​ge button doesn't work after installing Win 7

    I upgraded the OS on my T510 from Windows 7 32-bit to Windows 7 64-bit, and now the blue ThinkVantage button does not work. I re-installed Rescue & Recovery, and it is working. Should I be concerned about the blue button? Is there any way to fix this problem? Thanks!

    @Christaylor,
    Download the TVSU then run it and it will install all the drivers and software needed to run your Win 7 x64 bit properly.

  • Browser button doesn't work after installing drivers - HP 4540s

    Hello everyone, 
    I have problem with browser button (the button next to wireless button) after installation of  "Keyboard, Mouse and Input Devices" (more specifically "HP Hotkey Support" - Win8). Before that the button works fine, but after installation of this driver it does not work anymore.
    I update my BIOS and I did not find button sittings there.
    On HP's drivers site there is only driver for Wireless button.
    I expect your answers!
    Thanks!

    Wow, that's odd...there might be a registry error in Windows preventing it from working correctly. Do you have any kind of registry cleaner?
    I don't want to recommend too many things for you to download, but I personally use CCleaner to clean and fix my registry. I would recommend uninstalling HP Support Assistant, downloading CCleaner and run the registry cleaner. After you run the registry cleaner, reboot the computer and then try to re-install HP Support Assistant. Hopefully that will work. 
    Here is a link to the download: http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
    Best of luck,

  • Acrobat PDF Maker doesn't work after installing UPDATES(!) to Adobe Creative Suite 3 (on Windows 7)

    Hi,
    I installed Adobe Creative suite 3 Premium on Widows Vista....then upgraded to Windows 7,...never had any problems.
    Today Adobe Update Advisor downloaded and installed some updates to Adobe Professional 8 (that came in a package with Adobe CS3 premium)....since then (it has been 3-4 hours), I cannot convert any document into PDF using ANY application MS Office 2007, as a Printer in browser...etc..
    The error message says:
    "Missing PDF Maker Files.
      Do you want to run installer in repair mode?"
    I clicked on Yes, then waited, then restarted my PC, and that didn't solve the problem"
    Adobe Support (a very unfriendly guy) told me that AdobeProfessional 8 support for Windows 7 is not available and that I can either upgrade to Adobe 9 (no way, I paid way too much money for Adobe CS3), refer to Adobe Forum, or reinstall Adobe CS3.
    Can someone tell me how to solve this problem without reinstalling the whole CS3?
    Thanks .

    Why did you “upgrade” to Windows 7?
    Shouldn't have Microsoft given you free updates to Windows XP or Windows Vista to give you all the fixes that appeared in Windows 7?
    Do you expect an automobile manufacturer to retrofit at no cost to you your two year old vehicle with the latest doodads associated with the latest in consumer electronics, automated toll taking, and GPS?
    Accounting rules in the United States associated with something called “revenue recognition” limit what companies can do to retrofit products with new features after they are released/sold. Supporting significant differences and/or features in a new operating system version or for that matter incompatibilities and features in another application (such as new versions of Office) require significant modifications to accounting practices to hold reserves to account for the possibility of such updates. Furthermore, ignoring these accounting and finance ramifications, keeping an extra set of engineers working to retrofit old software versions would significantly increase Adobe's costs and hence the price charged for this software.
    Be aware that except for custom software with ongoing maintenance and/or retainer contracts, typical commercial software is licensed for use with the equipment and software environment that it was originally designed for and that fact is already built into the cost and pricing structures. The pricing of upgrades to new software versions reflects the cost of providing support for newer equipment and software environments as well as any new features.

  • My iPhoto doesn't work after installing lion?

    My Iphoto doesn't work after installing lion.
    it suggest that I have to instal iphoto again.
    where can I find this

    If it suggests that you install iPhoto again, install iPhoto again. In your Macs Box that it came in there should be 2 Discs, one is an Applications CD (You need this one) And another is the Mac OS X.
    Insert your Applications CD and hold C while the computer is starting up, then you will be walked through the installation of Applications.

  • Submit button doesn't work after moving form to another parent container

    I'm re-arranging the page using jquery. When I moved a div or table containing a form to another div, the submit button doesn't work anymore. Using the emulation mode under the Inspect Element feature of IE, the same code works for IE9 but not under IE10
    and up.
    Any ideas?
     

    I will steal the answer that George gave to a similar question, because it turns out it is applicable here as well:
    George Johnson  on Feb 23, 2012 11:17 AM 
    When you distribute a form, it replaces the email address that you've set up in a submit button with the email address you have specified in "Edit > Preferences > Identity > Email Address". So before you initiate the Distribute Form process, change the email address there to the one you want to use.
    It is a ridiculous solution, because it means I have to make the identity of my personal copy of Acrobat the email address of someone else or some other department when I make the form, but whatever -- at least the form sends now.

  • ENVY 7640 - Power Button doesn't work after going to sleep

    We print about once a day. It printed the first day without problems.The second day, we were unable to print and went to the printer and pushed the touchscreen - nothing happened.Then we pushed the power button - nothing happened,Then we unplugged and re-pluged the power cord - the printer booted and we were able to print. The third day, we were unable to print and went to the printer and pushed the touchscreen - nothing happened.Then we pushed the power button - nothing happened,Then we unplugged and re-pluged the power cord - the printer booted and we were able to print.The fourth day, we were unable to print and went to the printer and pushed the touchscreen - nothing happened.Then we pushed the power button - nothing happened,Then we unplugged and re-pluged the power cord - the printer booted and we were able to print.Then we registered with this forum and ask this question:HOW CAN WE KEEP THIS PRINTER POWERED ON WITHOUT RE-PLUGGING IT EVERY DAY? 

    I have the same issue as described at the beginning of this post.  As noted by teacher, I have checked and confirmed the green light in back is still lit.  I just bought this printer and issues started from the beginning. After I unplug and then restart the printer that way, it turns on and the power button will turn off and then turn on the printer.  Its only after its static for a long time and goes into some undefined mode.  At that point, the printer no longer responds.  How can a company ship a product to customers in which the power button doesn't work? The only reason I bought this printer was becuase my HP Photosmart 7510 randomly gave me printer head error after changing the ink.  It was only like 3 years old.  I can't believe my new printer is buggy.  Your company is on thin ice now. Please help me resolve this problem.

  • Treo 700W blue tooth w/daimler Chrysler uconnect not working after installing updater.

    Anyone having problems with their 700W blue tooth working after installing the updater? My Jeep Grand Cherokee's blue tooth uconnect system was working flawlessly until I installed the updater. Now it will not work. I've went through all of the procedures several times. The phone will discover the uconnect but when you put in the 4 digit pass code that you have given to the vehicle it will not connect thought the secure connection. I have called Verizon and Daimler Chrysler and they both do not know why it will not work. I have reset the uconnect system on the vehicle per their instructions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    View Solution.

    I'm having the exact same problem - Treo 700W (verizon), Dodge UConnect circa 2005 (Grand Caravan  [tough to admit, but yes a mini-van]), running Win XP, Active Sync 4.2, USB connect with the Treo.
    Had perfect connectivity until running the most recent update, now the Treo will initially recognize UConnect when attempting to pair the phone, but after supplying the 4-digit passcode, it won't connect.  It tells me the "passcode is incorrect...".  I'm 100% sure the passcode in correct.  I've tried deleting the phone from the UConnect multiple times and tried several different combinations of passcodes (0000, 1234, 1111, 2222, and many others) and all have the same result.
    I've also successfully paired the Treo with other bluetooth devices, so it appears this is a UConnect - Treo problem.
