Satellite 2410: Question about different ways to use BlueTooth

Hi,
I'm having trouble finding somewhere to purchase a bluetooth module for my Toshiba Satellite 2410 - the handbook says I can, and I know there is space on the underside of the laptop to insert it.
I just can't seem to find one to buy - does anybody know if they actually exist, as I am beginning to think not??!...or is the cheapest way to bluetooth enable the laptop to buy a USB adaptor?
If so, will a cheap one affect the download rate when using the Internet?? And what is the difference between an SD card and a USB bluetooth adaptor?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Well, with the detailed name I mean the full notebook number Satellite 2410-xxx.
However, you ask what a difference between Wireless Lan and Bluetooth.
The WLan is technology which allows you using or/and to create a LAN but without the cables.
;) The Wlan routers for example allow you to connect to the internet without the cable connection.
Bluetooth technology:
If device like (mobile phones, printer, etc) support BT technology and you notebook uses also a BT so it's possible to connect these devices without cables. The devices should be placed in the available range.
I would recommend searching a little bit in the internet for more information about Wlan and Bluetooth

Questions about different issues on a Satellite A30

Ok, to start, I don't know much about computers let alone laptops but my husband is "usually" good with them but right now we are having major problems.
I have a Satellite A30 (not sure if it's a pro as it doesn't mention it in the manual and Stephen is about to have a heart attack right now and isn't on the laptop so can't check the BIOS).
Anyway. Problems started quite some time ago, in fact not long after the warranty ran out. I bought it second hand and I loved it when I got it.
Ok
Problem 1. - Overheating, we finally solved that by hoovering it out every now and then, problem solved.
Problem 2. - USB 2.0. Some things work some don't. My Nikon camera won't work via USB but my Lumix does. My mobile struggles. Just bought a card reader, worked on Stephen's laptop but not the A30. Bluetooth dongle doesn't work. All these items used to work.
Problem 3. - I can set my processor speed to either 1.6GHz or 3.06GHz. Overheats really easily on 3.06 and tends to slow down and seems to be faster on 1.6GHz and doesn't overheat on 1.6 so end up keeping it on that. Pain though. Even with extra under laptop fan cooler base.
Problem 4. - Not that I'm an expert but I think my power supply is gone. I always have my laptop plugged in about 90% of the time. I can put the laptop on and it will use the AC Adaptor for a while then goes on to Battery Power. If the AC Adaptor was in that was what it used, not the battery. Then when the battery gets to the end of it's power it just goes and I have to wait until it charges again before I can turn it back on. I find that really annoying.
Problem 5. - As from 2 days ago it has went totally and utterly kaput. Won't even log on. It goes as far as Windows XP booting up then an error message saying something about a missing .DLL file. Stephen said he sorted that but hasn't resolved the problem. We decided it was a hard drive problem so bought an external case for it and Stephen after 2 whole days managed to upload everything from the HDD to his laptop. It was a 40gig HDD. Some of the files were warped and had to be deleted so thought that was the problem so went out to buy a new one but went for a 120gig. Stephen formatted that on his laptop then went to transfer it to my A30 but same problems. Now I am wondering if 120Gig is too much. At the mo Stephen is taking out his HDD to put in mine and vice versa. His laptop is recognising it as a 120GHz but according to him my BIOS is not very clear and doesn't tell you anything. As I said I know nothing about computers. I'm really clutching at straws here. Stephen has been brought up on computers but is more used to desktops and we decided to sell our laptops and buy a high spec up to date desktop but I doubt I'd get much money now for my A30 if it doesn't work.
Any ideas would be sooooo helpful to get it rolling again.
Sorry for this thread to be so long but although Stephen won't admit to it, he really needs help and I can try and give any info you need to help us out.
BTW I read in my manual that it can take up to 80Gig HDD but larger ones in the future so we thought it would be fine with 120 by now since they are available if that is any help to you.

Hi there,
do you have still warranty on that machine? If yes then bring it TOMORROW to an authorized service partner.
Why? The problem is that this machine has an Pentium 4 which really gets hot and if the cooling system is clobbed with dust, then the cooling paste which transfers the heat between cpu and cooling module gets dry and cannot transfer the heat accurately to the copper cooling module.
I would suggest you to go to an technician and advise him to exchange the cooling paste, it will really raise your system stability.
Believe me. :)
The other thing with USB is: sometimes there is no enough power in the system and I assume that the problem lies on the AC-adapter. Purchase an new AC-adapter and you probably wont have problems with stability, USB and some other things anymore. I cannot tell it for sure, but I solved a problem with a Satellite 2430 which I had and which is quite the same model like yours, it has just some other colors but the model is the same.
I had that heat problem and I solved it by exchanging the cooling paste, but then the machine was not in warranty anymore and I am a little bit familiar with computers.
I had problems with my AC too, but my error was another because it mades some noise and after a while it stops working. At this time the system did not worked properly and after exchanging the AC everything was fine again.
Regarding the HDD: I cannot tell you something about since I am using just a 60GB drive. You will probably find it our on your own or a experienced user here in the forum could maybe help you.
I wish you good luck with your machine and a nice weekend

General question about storage, networking, and using large amounts of data

I have been using a powermac tower G5 up until now. I bought my daughter a macbook pro 15" i7, talk about a zippy little machine. What a screamer. I can't believe how fast it is with final cut express, Aperture, and Photoshop. I tend to use higher end stuff, video, photos, etc. Hence I need not only a good fast processor, but the storage....need lots of hard disk space.
oh, did I mention I bought this for my daughter who's about to go off to college? Heh, when I'm home, she loses the machine to me.... *evil grin*
Anyways, I haven't considered using a laptop before for me personally as I just don't care for the small screen size, no mouse, and things like that.
Seems I've changed my opinion, esp seeing as the new mouse track pad is a game changer. I still am not crazy about the small screen size, but I can get over it.
The one thing I can't get around is the small disk storage. I have 4 TB on my big machine. Between my video, photography, and music, I am nearing a full TB of just raw stuff. If I count all the things I've stored, especially finished videos I make of photography projects, well you can image the chomping that occurs on disk storage.
So what is a man to do about storage?
I'm really getting hooked on this zippy little machine. The idea of dragging it around is compelling. Having my work not tied to a desk is fun.
but the lack of storage is sucky, terribly so.
I have one possible option, taking the G5 and making it a server. I can use it for backup and high speed transfer, working on the transfer part today.
I thought I'd poll the collective wisdom of the community and see what do you peeps think is the best overall way to handle such a situation?
What is the absolute fastest best way to use external drives? Firewire 800 is ok, but when working with 400gb aperture database files....
I'm hoping there is some way to start posturing myself to really use a laptop for my full computing experience.
Or am I trying to make a small portable machine act like a tower? Is this not a reasonable hope at this point in time?
I'm open to suggestions. I'm going to purchase something when my daughter takes this laptop with her to college. Either a new mac pro tower or laptop. I love the portability but need speed and massive storage.
Thanks for opining.

Storage:
1. Replace the drive with a larger one. Up to 1 TB is now available for notebook drives.
2. Get a portable external drive for additional storage needs. See the options at OWC as an example.
Drive speed:
1. FW 800 should be fast enough for your work. If the computer has an ExpressCard slot then consider a card supporting full speed eSATA. You may then achieve speeds closer to the internal bus.
A laptop is not a tower so stop thinking of or comparing to your tower. Besides the laptop's speed compared to your G5 is more like comparing a Ford Focus to a Ferrari F150.

Is there a way to use Bluetooth headphones with apple tv

Satellite 5100 - Question about dead pixels. Is it really dead pixel problem?

Hi,
I've got Satellite 5100-603. There have been some dead pixels on display. I don't know is it really dead pixel problem or not because the black area seems to be behind the screen. When i move left and right sides, the black area moves left and right sides too (as if the black area is behind the screen pixels)! And i can tell that all pixels are working OK when i look from the right and left sides of the display (because the pixels that seems to be dead, changes at different looking angles).
Are there really dead pixels or is it some other problem?
Is there anything that i can do about it?
For info, i am using my laptop for 2,5 years and there is no warranty of course...
Thanks for any help..

Hi
to answer your question I will try to make a simple description the layout of the TFT display.
I'll go from the front to the back.
In the front is a tough plexi-glass like layer to protect the screen from harm and the user from glass in case the TFT should break. It is also prepared in a way that will soften the reflections from behind (that does not go for the newer SuperBright screens).
Behind that is the 2 layers (at least 1 of glass, probably both) that hold the actual matrix of the pixels.
Behind theese 2 are a very complex set of layers that take care of the backlight. It consists of various numbers of films that should spread the light from the singel FL-tube evenly across the complete screen. Not a easy task if you ask me!
Sometimes, physical stress or dirt can make 'blotches' appear on the screen and they are in fact either dirt on the backmost layer or marks on the same. If there is dirt or marks on it, that will 'shadow' the light that comes out from it and show dark spots on the screen. They are quite different from defective pixels.
The defective pixels do not change with the angle of view for example.
I think you cannot do anything about this except changing screen. The construction is very complex and sensetive.

Satellite A200 - Question about HDD partitions and RAM

This may be in the wrong section... I don't know.
I've never owned an OEM OS and I also don't understand why the HDD comes partitioned 90, 2, 90 (who thought of that?).
The thing is that I have to format and partition differently (since I have to dual boot Linux) and need to create a structure more like 40,40,100 or such. (100 being fat32 so data can be accessed for both)
Now I'm just wondering which data I should be keeping from these drives. There's a folder called Toshiba on the C:\ drive which seems to have drivers and such, a few wallpapers and who knows what else. Then there's the D: drive called WinRE which has some sort of sdi and wim files.
Another question, if I buy the 2GB which is listed in the compatible options for my laptop (A200-28P)
Link: [http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/individualOptions.do?service=UK&OPTION_ID=138301&t oshibaShop=true&selCategory=4700]
Will it match the 2GB already in the laptop? Will it void the warranty in any way?

Yes, I am using Vista, sorry, I forgot to mention that. The drive however is definately not hidden (it's clearly visible as the D drive and labelled WinRE).
I'm not an idiot. I understand it, but you have got to admit that giving the OS 90 is a bit extreme and obviously I know what I can do with the other 90.
I'd also like to point something out:
"It's always advisable to partition an large HDD in more partition. This improves the performance because OS can access the files much faster."
This is more than just an urban myth, it is down right stupid to believe that. After all, the data has a physical position on the drive and partitioning doesn't change the fact that it still has to get the needle to point to the location where the data is located on the drive.
The needle still travels the same distance as referred to by the MFT.
The question is if I can alter the partitions when using the strange Toshiba recovery disk. Afterall OEMs don't come with standard install disks and seem to limit your options.
Again regarding the ram, I know the laptop can run 4 gigs, but I want to know whether the 2GB stick I'd buy from Toshiba would be the exact same as the one already installed, as in same timings and such.
So in conclusion the data on D is worthless. What about the stuff in the Toshiba folder? And sorry if I sound condescending or like an *insert disallowed word here*, I'm just not in the best mood right now (serious data loss on my project because of a Uni server crash!).

OSD: different pxe, question about different wim-files

Hi,
Please see this question, I'm somewhat confused about the different
wim files.
I can see the default winpe.wim and a different wim next to it which has name winpe then environment then number (winpe.sccm0022.wim), what is this file.
And, like in my post, why can't I use this image to import into a pxe and boot from that?
Please advise.
J.
Jan Hoedt

Hi,
What is your goal with this? boot to SCCM and do OS deployment or what is your purpose? when dowloading the boot .wim file from a DP parameters are passed along like MP and so on. So you cannot use that .WIM file and pxe-boot from another PXE solution and
do OSD from ConfigMgr.
That is why Johan's unsupported solution would be the way to try it.

Question about file size when using "Export for Web"

Hi!
I created a .mov file and worked to get a great balance between file size and quality so that I could deliver it via the web and make it easier for end users to see the video on a slower connection.
My question: When I use "Export for Web," my .mov file is converted into a very large .m4v file--more than double the size of the original file. I know that this export option is to optimize the file for a wide variety of users/internet speeds. Am I correct in guessing that the end size is not an issue? I would post the .mov file instead, but I really like the option of embedding into a html page along with the "click to play" option.
Bottom line--is it better to post the smaller .mov file that i originally started with or to go ahead and link to the bigger .m4v file that was created with the "Export for Web" option?

"Export for Web" is a feature of QuickTime Pro and it makes 4 files and the html page code for easy copy/paste Web page editing.
The very first file is called a "reference movie" and it links to the other 3 files (56kbps, 900kbps and 1.5Mbps). It, and the page code, "read" the connection speed of the viewing hardware and "serve up" the correct file based on that connection speed.
In nearly all cases the "Desktop" version would still be smaller in file size than the original source. The times the file would "increase" in file size would be when an already compressed was used as the source file. You can find out more about your source file by opening it in QuickTime Player and viewing the Movie Inspector window information.
There are dozens of other html "tricks" that could be used if your source file is already compressed but you want a different display size:
Page code to show "aspect" or scale="tofit". This code allows values "outside" of those found in the actual QuickTime file be used for the Web page display. A 320X240 QuickTime .mov file looks pretty good at double size (640X480) but the file size would still be that of the source file.
"Poster Movie" is another html trick that loads the Web based file directly in the QuickTime Player application (bypassing Web page layout restrictions). These files are also known as "Presentation Movies".
Another method is the QuickTime Media Link file (.qtl). These are simple text based files that are used as a "direct link". These use simple XML (Extensible Markup Language) and are easily created in any text editing application. The simple syntax has amazing control over a simple QuickTime .mov file. You can launch (and quit) the QuickTime Player, display at other dimensions and even embed "links" inside the display.
Some of my files as examples:
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/Lemon_Trees/ a "Poster Movie" style.
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/.Public/RedneckTexasChristmas.qtl
A QuickTime Media Link file. A tiny file should download to the viewing machine, launch QuickTime Player, present the movie and it even includes a "link" to my Web page.
Edit: It appears you must now double click the .qtl download to launch QuickTime.

Question about different query results with wildcard

Hi, I'm working with a third party app on SQL Server 2000, and from what I can gather, programmed in C# & VisualFoxPro.
When we search with
    Note contains 94949
we get 571 results, when we search with
    Note contains 94949*
we get 575 results.
There should be at least a hundred different entries that start with "94949-1" so I expected the query with the wildcard to return something like 680 results, not an additional four rows.
Searching with
    Note contains 94949-1*
got 483 results
    Note contains 94949-10*
got 0 results
Could someone explain or point me to more documentation on the difference results we get?
Thanks

Hi Arnie, thanks for your response.
My situation is more basic than what appears in your example. Unfortunately, I am working solely through this application so I do not have access to the SQL to test out what you supplied, so my question is more of a need for an explanation of the search results. I do find lots of references to LIKE, Wildcards and pattern matching, but I don't find a way to explain to the users the best and most complete way to search. They mostly need a "this will always get us the results without missing anything" search technique and then to be able to select from a smaller group. I guess I need a basic course in understanding search results: how to get different ones and what they mean.
Using
        Note contains 94949-'%'
returned one more result than when using an asterisk. I don't understand this difference.
        Note contains 94949-'%1'   or
        Note contains 94949-'1%'
brings nothing nor does not using quotes. But there are hundreds of records which have the string starting with 94949-1 and a varying number of characters after that.
?Does the dash read not as a character in the string but as an expression?
When I use WITHIN 3 characters, I get too few results (eight). If I use AND, I get text unrelated to the account number I am looking for.
Again when I tried to narrow the search by adding one digit to the string to be matched, I did not get any results, but 500 results from the more general search is too much to scan by opening individual records.
Thanks for pondering this with me.

Question about setting up rdp using a cisco 800 series router

HI there,
I am currently in school for networking. One co-op placement I went too handed me a cisco 800 series router to practice my routing skills on. I am trying to setup RDP so I can access my server from outside my internal network. I ran this following acl command to do it.
ip nat inside source static tcp server IP address port# cable modem IP port # extendable.
My question here is, my cable modem will occasionally hand out a different IP since it has DCHP. I cannot turn DHCP off in my cable modem. So is there a way I can set this up to use a dynamic IP from my modem so I alwasy have access to it or every time my modem changes the IP address do I have to go in and modify this acl?

Configure DDNS ( Dynamic DNS ) on the router. For this you need to register with a DDNS provider. Go to
http://www.no-ip.com/ . they provide free reliable service.
With DDNS, Once your router gets a DHCP address from your ISP , it will dynamically update the DNS name record. For example if you register you routers name as, "myrouter.no-ip.org", from there onwards whatever the IP your router gets, you can refer to that by this name.
So do as what Paolo said regarding using interface instead of ip, and register with the DDNS and you are good to go..
Hope this helps
Please rate this post if helpful..

Satellite P850 - question about Infrared port

Hi,
I have Windows 8 Pro installed onto my laptop and I've downloaded all the drivers and everything is working fine apart from the Infrared. I've searched all over the internet and I can't find a remote control to use with this laptop (including the Toshiba website).
I've installed the latest ENE CIR Driver (v4.1) as well as the Toshiba Remote Control Manager (v3.1.0.1). I looked in Program Files to open the Toshiba Remote Control Manager however when I click on the program to open it... Nothing happens (including in the notification area).
So my question is can I actually get a remote working with this laptop at all and if not then what is this Infrared port for because I can't find anything on my computer to actually use it with/for?!
Thanks for your help :p

Hi
Some Satellite P850 models are equipped with the remote controller and its possible to use the remote controller with Windows Media Center to play discs or videos, to view pictures and to watch recorded TV programs.
Models which dont include the a remote controller are *NOT* equipped with the an infrared receiver so the notebook cannot be operated with a remote controller.
The remote controller was not part of the package so your notebook does not support infrared receiver and therefore the installation of ENE CIR Driver and Toshiba Remote Control Manager was useless

Question about 6 Way Firewire Port and Ex. HD's

I recently bought the Belkin 6-Port Firewire adapter. Right now I have two external HD's ( 200 GB and 300 GB ),and my iSight connected. I was wondering if it was safe to have my two HD's always connected? I've been having issues with my screen turning dim and not coming back to normal until I restart. I reset the PRAM and still after using my iMac for awhile the screen turns dim, like as if were about to go to sleep, but when I try to brighten it, it stays the same brightness?

Assuming the harddrives have their own power supply the issue us unlikely to be related. Its unlikely to be related either way.
Are you sure you are not losing connection to the keyboard so when you try to brighten it takes a while for the keyboard to reactivate, plenty of people have had issues with the keyboard.
Also you can switch off the totally pointless slight dimming thing in the energy saver part of system prefs

Question about implementing a clock using a Timer object

Hello all, I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this question but I think so, as it regards a Swing component. I want to add a timer (a clock that starts at 0:00 and keeps track of how long the app is running) to a frame. I am just curious if using a Timer is the proper way to keep track of time, and just repaint() the clock object every second? (or more frequently if desired)... or is there a better way to do this? Thanks in advance for any comments/feedback/help!
Brian

Hello,
Timer is not accurate. You can use Timer to display your component repeteadly, and System.currentTimeMillis() at each call to deduce the elapsed time.

E-recruimtment: Question about landscape standalone with use of MSS view

Hi ,
Has anyone already done an implementation of E-recruitment with the use of MSS view ?
Or have you reliable information about the combination landscape - manager view ?
For security reasons the choice for the landscape standalone is the best.
But in documentation of SAP we have read that the Manager view isn't possible in a standalone landscape:
ERP installation (Recruiting as integral part of the ERP solution)
- Required for MSS Manager Role integration and ESS integration
Kind Regards
Pascale

Hello Pascale,
perhaps we mixed up some things according to the manager involvment. There are 2 different solutions.
There is the "internal" e-recruiting solution for manager involvement. This is delivered in 2 separate roles requester and decision maker but usually joined to one manager or hiring department view / startpage.
There is an bsp application for requesting requisitions. The manager can create them, fill in the data he knows and then he sends it to his hr clerk respondible for his requests who adds all stuff missing, checks if it's ok with budget / headcount and then publishes it in the jobborads. In Addition there is an application which provides the mangager with a list of candidates he has to check and fill a questionaire for e.g. to decide if he wants the candate for an interview.
Both applications are parts of the e-recruiting delivery. They have nothing to do with the MSS. They are accessed via a startpage for the amnager and run on the e-recruiting server.
On the other hand there is nearly the same functionality delivered as part of the MSS. The result is nearly the same just the user interface differs. The requisition request is not done in an bsp application but an Adobe Interactive Form (which requires an ADS Server). The intention of this is to rebuild you old paper requisition request in an interactive form and map the data to the e-recruiting requisition. So you train your managers to use a web version of the old form instad of using e-recruiting. Of course if you already use other mss functions everything will be in the same fancy frontend and you do not need to log in twice if you have no SSO. As far as I heard the ADS license alone costs 50k and then youhave the rollout cost and licence cost for the MSS. You have to decide if it is worth it.
The candidate list for questionairs to fill is also available in the MSS scenario.
The MSS solution requires e-recruiting 600 and an hr core system on ECC6.0 (ERP2005) with the newest enhancement package. The MSS is installed and processed on the hr core server no matter if you use an integrated or a standalone installation for e-recruiting.
Best Regards
