Re: Satellite A200 unable to connect phone - No Bluetooth

Some years back I bought a Satellite A200 (PSAF6A-OWOOIN) running Vista, which my daughter has since upgraded to windows 7.
Previously the notebook had Bluetooth connectivity to my mobile phone (not that I ever used it),
however (now that I do need it) I can no longer connect, or even find any bluetooth software.
I have searched for a suitable download, but the only one I could find, would not run/start due to an incompatibility ????
I real need to be able to connect my phone to my computer, as we have video that we wish to forward to the police on disk.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
First of all it would be really interesting to know if BT is enabled on this notebook.
Can you see a small BT icon in the taskbar?
What happens if you would use the key combination FN + F8?
This key combination toggles between the Wlan and BT and enables/disables the connectivity.
In case you cannot enable the BT or the icon does not appear in the taskbar, visit this Toshiba BT portal https://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/ and download and install the latest Toshiba BT stack for the Win 7

    Brand spanking new N70, downloaded PC suite however not able to connect phone to compter via USB to transfer music. Can anybody help?

    Hi bento
    When you install PC Suite for first time there are TWO seperate processes, firstly installing PC Suite then returns to desktop and then secondly establishing connectivity during which "Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver" and "PC Connectivity Solution" installed.
    You could go to Setings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Repair and see if this helps

    Hi
    Iam using Nokia E5.
    Iam able to connect to mobile internet to laptop using USB connection,while using bluetooth for connceting internet iam getting below error.
    "failed to connect to network.the modem is in use by another application ormay not be configured properly"
    please advise how to over come this.

    Same problem here with E72...well in 75% of cases, sometimes it connect easily, which make me believe the settings are correct.
    Any news here? Does the problem lie with the computer or with the phone? Sometimes, but usually not, restarting one or both device helps.
    Thanks,

  • Satellite A200 - How to connect to TV?

    Hi, Dear.
    How I connect my laptop to tv with S-video Media Cable or VGA-RGB cable? I tried to connect by Fn+F5 but no signal comes out. If I use VGA -RGB cable something is comeing out on TV but its scrolling continuously .
    Kindly assist me..

    Hi
    You can use both cables to connect your notebook to TV. Its depending on the interfaces on notebook and TV but in both cases its the same:
    Connect the cable to notebook and TV, power on your TV and select the right channel and then power on your notebook. After boot procedure you can switch with FN+F5 between monitors.
    If you use S-Video cable make sure that you are using the right television encoding system, e. g. PAL or NTSC.
    > If I use VGA -RGB cable something is coming out on TV but its scrolling continuously .
    What settings did you use (screen resolution, screen refresh rate, etc.)

  • Satellite P750 - Unable to connect external screen via VGA port

    Hello All,
    My problem is following:
    I have been trying to connect my P750 (running on W7 x-64) to an external screen using the VGA port/cable. Unfortunately the external devices does not recognize my laptop. Laptop does recognise the external screen, you can see it in the graphic settings as additional display, but the screen says "no signal".
    The computer always identifies the screen correctly, so it looks like there is communication from the screen to the PC, but not the other way round.
    This has been checked with 3 separate screens and a TV - always the same. All the screens work properly with different PC's.
    I already did:
    - try to play with FN+F5 / "windows"+P buttons - no change
    - install the latest BIOS and Video drivers from Toshiba website - no change
    Any suggestions how to make it work? Is it possible that the VGA port is faulty?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello and thank you for the tips,
    I did try the options you suggested unfortunately with no success.
    I actually got myself HDMI cable and this connection is working perfectly well. Luckily the very screen I want to attach my laptop to does have HDMI port. It is just a bit annoying to know that the d-sub port seems to be useless.
    The lady from Toshiba tech support call centre suggested either OS re-install or sending it to Toshiba for repair/check as it is still under warranty. None of this options suites me at the moment, so I will probably stick to the HDMI. Still, I have a feeling it is a software rather than hardware problem.
    Cheers

  • Unable to connect phone to network

    For months I have tried everything I know and cannot get my Palm Pre to connect to my WiFi network (WRT310N). It connects to other networks at other places but will not connect to mine from anywhere in the house. I have added the MAC address to the permitted list in the router, used the router passphrase for my password and every password in my repertoire but it refuses to complete a connection.
    Any ideas?

    Do you get an error message? Anyway, disable your wireless security in the meantime and try to connect.

  • My satellite A200 - unable to do system recovery

    Hi, bought this laptop 2007..does not have recovery disc.
    Tried below and could hear the beeping sound and I could see HDD recovery mode message on the bottom of the screen but after some seconds, getting "start windows normally " window again and gets blue screen and unable to proceed from there...
    ============================= 
    1) Hold down the power button for 10 (ten) seconds to switch off your machine.
    Please note: Holding down the power button on the machine forces it to switch off. Any unsaved data will be lost.
    2) Press and hold the 0 (zero) key and at the same time, tap the power button once to switch on your notebook.
    3) When the machine Starts beeping; release the 0 key.
    =============================
    I wonder what else I can do .... please help.  Thank you very much in advance.

    the reason it didnt come with any recovery media is because you were supposed to make it. since zero isnt working you will need to get recovery media from toshiba. order online or call 1(800)457-7777

  • Satellite A200 external display is blurred

    We have bought 5x satellite A200. After connecting it to any external display we get nothing but blurred picture.
    It's impossible to work on it.
    Our other notebooks P200 series work well on presented displays. We really do not know what to do with it. We tried to use Nvidia utility, WIndows utility, upgrading the drivers, switching the display via keyboard but we get the blurred picture in all cases.
    We are very satisfied with A200 performance, but the external picture is unusable. Would you recommend us a solution?
    Thank you!
    Filippi

    Hi
    Could you please post exactly name of the Satellite A200.
    Are these units delivered with an NVIDIA graphic card or with Intel card?
    In the nVidia control panel you can change the brightness and the contrast of the display.
    Im not 100% sure if you will be able to choose the external monitor but its worth a try.
    Go to the control panel -> nVidia -> Display -> Adjust desktop colour settings
    The new page should appear where you can adjust your colour settings.
    Check if the external monitor appears and choose it. Then you could change the position of the brightness and contrast control.

  • How to connect my Satellite A200 with a Philips LCS TV?

    Hi, I have problems to connect my Satellite A200 1E1 with a Philips 32 PF9967D LCD-TV HD ready.
    The manuals recommend a HDMI extension that is unfortunately not availble with my Laptop.
    However, isn't is possible to use a S-Video connection instead? I could accept a reduced quality. When I connect the Laptop with the TV, I have the impression that the Satellite does not send any signal out. The "FN F5" combination does not show the opportunity to switch between the screens. Once I connected a beamer and had no problems at all with switching between beamer, laptop screen or both.
    Any comments would be highly appreciated, thanks a lot in advance.

    Hello
    In user manuals is written in almost each chapter about ports or slots a short comment: depending on configuration. That means that this users manuals can be used for different A200 notebook models.
    Every notebook delivered with HD-DVD optical disc drive has also an HDMI port. According the notebook specification your notebook has no HD-DVD ODD and because of that there is also no HDMI port.
    For TV-out there is sonly one port S-Video. Using this port you can send video signal to your TV. I have LCD TV too and I have used it many times with my A200 notebook. It is very simply but be sure you use the right channel (S-Video) on your TV. Using FN+F5 key combination you can switch to the TV.
    If this does not work you are doing something wrong.

  • TS1398 I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc.

    I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc. but no luck ...
    In fact after updating the software to the latest version I am having more of this... Sometimes the wifi button freezes an I can't even slide it to on / off...
    Thanks

    Noooo! Actually I too had d same prob wit my iPhone 4S. When I connect to my wifi network it won't get connected or it wil be grey scaled! I took it to d istore and since I had warranty they replaced my IPhone. It iPad charger has high volt than ur iPhone charger so when u connect wit it, there is a chance where large amount of current passes thru ur iPhone. So for sure it wil damage ur motherboard and its parts! Many said that iOS 6 or 6.0.1 or 6.1 was d reason for tis wifi prob! But apple never made its mistake wit it's software. If and only if u hav hardware prob u wil hav these sort of wifi prob Bluetooth prob! So best way s to replace ur iPhone!

    Yesterday I reset my settings on my iphone 4 to correct a problem. Today I am unable to connect to itunes to sync my phone. The device does not show up on the screen. What can I do?

    Best practices says plug the USB cable into the computer, then plug the 30 pin connector into the iPhone.
    If everything is working correctly, you should be able to plug the iPhone in at any time. Before or after opening iTunes.
    Depending on what settings are selected in iTunes, the program may or may not automatically open when you connect the device.

  • Cannot connect my Satellite A200-1MB to new WLAN router

    Hi All,
    Recently i bought the LinkSys Router (Model no: WRT120N) and configured it. But it is not connecting to my TOSHIBA laptop (model no: Satellite A200-1MB) with this new router.
    It is a wireless connection. I don't think its something to do with the router because the other laptops can access the signal and they can able to connect to that router.
    Can anyone please help me out in fixing this?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Razzaq.

    hi rajak.net,
    sure all users in this forum are willing to help...
    make sure that:
    - the same encryption method is used
    - the same access key
    - the same channel is used
    - the ssid is visible
    if you cant make a connection turn of *all* encryption and test it
    sometimes a update of the ap firmware makes it running...
