Hi
If you have no problems then you should not update the drives firmware.
Anyway, the message is clear enough.
The update has been released for the TS-L633C / TS-L633Y CD/DVD drive.
If you dont have this CD/DVD drive then you can ignore this message.

Satellite Pro L500 - no licence for Toshiba Bluetooth Stack

Do hope someone can help me. I am going round in circles.
On 8th Nov 2010 I purchased online from Toshiba the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack (Premium Edition) for my Toshiba Satellite Pro L500 so that I could use my existing (non-Toshiba) dongle. This has been working fine until a couple of months ago.
Thinking that the dongle had packed up I bought another one.
However, although I know that this one is working I have been unable to get this to work on my Toshiba laptop as I keep getting the following error message from the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack as follows:
"Thank you for evaluating the Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba. The evaluation period has now expired. Please obtain a license for this version of Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba."
This seems to imply I have come to the end of a free evaluation period but I haven't as I purchased the full license in 2010. I have tried various things but I can't seem to get past this. I'm not a computer boffin but I can reasonably find my way around a laptop. Can anyone please, please help me?

Hi there. Apologies for the delay in replying.
I did try reinstalling, but in then searching the Toshiba Bluetooth Portal under "news" (here is the link http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/index.php?page=news ) it says:
"2011-12-21 TOSHIBA Bluetooth Stack for users without TOSHIBA hardware isn't available anymore"
I'm taking that to mean I can only use a Toshiba bluetooth dongle for it to work. Assuming I am reading it right I am really unhappy about this as I paid 25.90 at the Toshiba Online Store just over 12 months ago for the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack Premium Edition and have had no warning about this suddenly happening.
Have it got it right? Would really appreciate a reply.

I am trying to find out what the FULL model number is on Satellite Pro L500, please help!

Hi, I have a Satellite Pro L500, but I am trying to locate the rest of the model number (L500-XXXX.... etc). I have looked on the bottom label, and all it says is Satellite Pro L500 SYSTEM UNIT.
My part no. is PSLS1A-031002
My HDD is 500gb
RAM is 4GB (which I think was upgraded from 2GB)
Windows 7 Home Premium
Pentium Dual-Core CPU T440 @2.20GHZ
If you have any idea what it could be, please help me

Satellite Pro L500 .. PSLS1A-031002
Must be this one.
Satellite Pro L500 (PSLS1A-030002)
The original memory is 4 GB.

GeForce 7300 GT Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro?? G5?

Hi,
Just found this on the apple store:
http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=1643C421&nplm=M A567
"NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro"
Why is it only for mac pro? its PCI express & my g5 is one of the late 2005 models and it has PCI Express so am i wrong in thinking that this should work fine or is it something to do with the new intel architecture?
If i remember correctly i could have chosen this card or a very similar one when i configured my G5.
Thanks

That card is only for the Mac Pro, as it says.
When you ordered your G5, you had the choice of the nVidia 6600 (or 6600LE), nVidia 7800GT, or the Quadro FX 4500.
The 7800GT that you could have ordered with your G5 is close in performance to the ATi X1900XT that is an option on the Mac Pro. The 7300GT that you're looking at is an entry level card, which the 7800GT definitely is not.
The 7300GT and the X1900XT are both Mac Pro only due to the ROM on the card, which is designed to work with the EFI booting hardware that the Mac Pro uses. The G5s used Open Firmware, which requires a different ROM on the video card. So, even though both your G5 and the Mac Pro are PCI-Express based, these video cards are not compatible.
Now, most PCI-Express cards that you look at for, say, external SATA, will probably work in both the G5 and the Mac Pro. You'd still want to check the specs to be sure, however.
If you're looking for a new video card to replace your (presumably) nVidia 6600, your only real option is the ATi X1900 G5 edition. This is a different card than the X1900XT that's offered for the Mac Pro.

Satellite Pro L500 - Webcam has stopped working

The built-in Web Camera on my Satellite Pro L500 has stopped working with the following message:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Toshiba\Toshiba Web Camera Application\TWebCamera.exe
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.
The Event log points to microsoft.vc80.openMP.......
Could someone please tell me how to fix the web Camera. I very rarely use it so I do not know exactly when it stopped working.
Thanks.

Thanks to TwoLags & PauPau.
Yes, I did think @ re-installing the driver but wanted to see what others think about it as I am quite new to Toshiba and was not sure if I could selectively install applications from recovery DVDs.
Removing the old driver and re-installing the one downloaded from TOSH has solved the problem During the re-install, I noticed it re-install MS Visual C++2005 redistributable. THIS IS THE culprit. This litttle bit of software comes bundled with many apps and I guess this was got installed with one of the new apps that I installed recently and must have messed up the original settings.
Thank you all, thw WebCam is back in action.

Satellite Pro L500 - Can't install Realtek LAN driver

Hi All,
I have recovered a Satellite Pro L500 Windows 7 pro with disc created from notebook, but now can't install a Realtek LAN driver for the notebook.
The software driver installer dosn't seem to run correctly all the time, have tried several times to install, with only once a realtek "repair" option becoming available.
When I did manage to install driver I got a error "device failed to start". after recovery I also had problems with a "PCL simple communications controller driver",
which seems to have been a Intel MEI according to the VEN, DEV info displayed in systems info.
Are these problems related and how do I Install the required driver in a automated system if the system won't detect the hardware correctly?

Have downloaded from many sources the correct driver, but the motherboard or the OS is not discovering the network adaptor so even if the driver is installed the divice is not recognised as being there(physically installed). when installing the driver software i get the error from the realtek installer "Realtek network controller was not found. If in deep sleep mode is enabled please plug the cable". have no idea what or how deep slee is enabled and have reset bios settings to default and have reset cmos.

Satellite Pro L500 wont burn DVD

I have TWO Satellite Pro L500 laptops with a TSSTCorp TS-L633C DVD-RW Drive. BOTH exhibit the same problem - burning a DVD fails during the finalising process, regardless of what speed you burn at.
Burning CD's works fine.
The blank DVD's burn fine on a Satellite L500D laptop using the HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GT20N drive, and also on another Satellite Pro L500 that is using a Pioneer drive.
Both laptops having issues are running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, but nothing else other than the software that comes with the laptop. Both are new straight out of the box. Driver is current version driver, from what I can find out.
Any suggestions? When one laptop showed the problems I thought it may be the drive, but now 2 laptops from totally different stores showing the exact same problem?
Thanks.

The problem is that disabling file verify doesn't resolve the issue as the disc is unreadable after burning.
*I have now solved the issue*
*It seems the TS-L633 drives do not work well with lower speed discs.*
Where EVERY other computer, including a Satellite Pro and Satellite using different drives, will detect the lower speed DVD's and burn appropriately, the TSSCorp drive does not and hence errors due to burning the disc at too high a speed.
The drive worked fine when higher speed discs were used.
Examining the problem discs I believe they were 2x discs, which as stated worked fine in all other computers where the computer detected the lower speed and changed the burn speed to 2x, however the TS-L633 drive would not allow less than 3x burn speed, and tried to burn at 8x. This obviously created a problem!
So, anyone having DVD burning issues with a Satellite laptop using the TSSTcorp TS-L633C drive, try changing the blank media to something capable of higher burn speeds!
Thank you to all that suggested solutions. I have also passed this info along to Toshiba Support as I feel this may be an issue they need to either resolve or note for future users, as there is no doubt slower speed DVD's will be used in these devices!

Reviews for ATI Radeon HD 4870 Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro?

There's no review at the Apple Store on this [ATI Radeon HD 4870 Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro (Early 2009 or Early 2008)|http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB999ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=NDE4NDMx OA]. Googled and found nothing related to the Mac kit. Mostly PC based.
Should I consider this card? I need a spare/replacement graphics card for my Mac Pro (early 2008). The NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT card has failed me twice.

Just came out on barefeats:
http://www.barefeats.com/nehal14.html
Shows new drivers with 285, also compares 4870.
If you play a lot of games on the windows side, you might also want to consider the 4890. I has recently became flashable (if you're into that kinda thing). It has a lot more leeway to be overclocked. Close to (or if your lucky) hitting the 1 Ghz core clock speed, gives very close comp to the 285, and at fraction of the price. You can get an XFX 4890 on newegg for $195.

APPLE: We Need An Upgrade Price for Logic Pro X!!!

There has always been an Upgrade path for Logic Pro. Where is it???

I've been using Logic since it was Notator 2.5 as well, upgrading every time, and I have absolutely NO PROBLEM with their being no upgrade price.
Reasons?
1. Even at the full price, Logic X is cheaper than any ProTools upgrade price.
2. It is a ridiculously powerful piece of software which can do things I was only dreaming of being able to do 20 years ago. Frankly I think $200/£139 is astonishingly good value for what it can do.
Perhaps people should stop convincing themselves that software manufacturers somehow 'owe them' just because they're long-term users? Apple has delivered a piece of professional level software at a remarkable price - for that I'm actually pretty thankful!
Nobody ever said doing professional quality audio was cheap.

What is the largest hard drive I can upgrade to for MacBook Pro A1278 Early '11

What is the largest hard drive I can upgrade to for macbook pro A1278 Early 2011? I have seen 750GB on some websites, but I would like a 1TB I am looking for SATA 6.0GB, 1TB 7200. Is this dependant on the physical size of the hard drive? I have seen a height of 15mm and 9.5 mm. How do I know what will fit??

I have not seen any 7200 rpm 1 TB HDDs. They all are 5400 rpm. I would say that this HDD comes closest to your requirements. Tomorrow, there may be others.

Satellite Pro L500-19X boots ok but touchpad and keyboard fail

Satellite Pro L500-19X running windows 7.
The machine boots ok, then at the login screen neither the touchpad or keyboard works.
The only way I can overcome this is to go back to a previous restore point.
After this, the machine runs fine until I power off, on powering up again, I get the same issue.
The machine has the latest updates applied.
Any pointers welcomed.
Regards,
C.

Hi lfc1892,
Have you tested external input devices? Maybe your internal devices are faulty and must be replaced. In this case the external input devices should work properly! :)
Furthermore you should follow the instructions posted by Dr.Lamp. Check this also in safe mode and in BIOS. In worst case you have to reinstall Windows

Question about Ram upgrade on a Satellite Pro A200

I want to purchase some internal memory for my A200 Satellite Pro Mod No,PSAE1E but I cannot find my model in the drop down lists, which memory do I need, I want to upgrade using two 1GB memory sticks, at present I have two 512MB sticks installed.

Hi
The compatible modules are: *DDR2 667MHz (PC2-5300) 200-PIN SODIMM*
As far as I know all notebooks from the A200 series can be upgraded up to *2GB* .
This means that one memory slot would support max 1GB RAM module.
As the previous user already said, the Kingston modules are not bad.
I use it in my notebook too and till now the modules are ok.
Cheers
