Did you try to press the F12 button and to change the booting source in the menu which would appear on the screen?
Do this!
At the other hand you can press C button at the beginning which would enable automatically the boot from CD/DVD drive.
Regarding the shut down;
I think this might be related to faulty RAM or maybe to higher temperature.
The A30 is a little bit older notebook and I think dust could clog the cooling grilles and the fresh air cannot circulate properly additionally I would recommend renew the thermal grease which is placed between CPU and cooling module.
Of course this is a job for a technician because its a little bit tricky to disassemble the unit.

Satellite A30-921 shuts down after 10 mins

I own a Satellite A30-921 but it shuts down after 10 mins.
I've tried to alter the toshiba power management settings but they wont work any ideas ?

Does the notebook shut down automatically without showing any error messages?
This could be caused by an overheating issue!
How old is your notebook and did you clean the cooling ventilators in the past?
If not I would recommend doing this.
To clean the ventilators you could use the compressed air spray which can be purchased in most computer stores.
The problem is that the dust and debris inside the notebook prevents the cooling modules from properly working and therefore the temperature increases to the higher level. This leads to the automatically shuts downs.
In my opinion the fans cleaning could helps to solve this issue.

Satellite A210-1C0 - Shuts down automatically

Hi, Satellite A210-1C0 shuts down on its own.

> At all: I won't by me another Toshiba again. A company who is using these bad/cheap optical drives? No way. To use these poor/cheap stuff and act like: no firmware/support, ask the manufacturer and the manufacturer say, of course, ask Toshiba... is this a way to threat customers?!?
That's your personal opinion but I don't agree with you... I've got my second Toshiba notebook and never had any problems...
But try other notebooks from different manufacturers and you will see that you will not be free of any hardware problems...
I know what I'm talking about... I used and tested notebooks from different manufacturers and had to fight always with some issues...
*@gommie48*
Finally some words regarding your issue:
Should clean the ventilators using an compressed air spray and should remove some dust and debris usually this helps to decreases the internal temperature.
Furthermore you should ensure that the ventilators are free!

Satellite P 30 shutting down

I have had my P 30 for around a year now and after playing a game or watching a DVD for an hour it shuts down. After reading many messages in this forum, it is apparent that Toshiba notebooks are prone to overheating and this is how the system protects itself from total burnout. The back around the fans does get extremely hot. The fans are working and there is plenty of ground clearence so it obviously needs taking apart and cleaning. Does anyone know where I can find the information that shows me how to properly clean a satellite P 30 please. Last thing I want to do is take it apart and then never work again. Any help would be muchly appreciated.

I use the vacuum cleaner. It sucks all the dust pretty well.
But the dust is not always responsible for the overheating and automatically shut downs.
You should check if the notebook "breathe" properly. The place around the notebook and the heatsink should be free.
I have also found this useful topic: Maybe it helps a little bit

You should also check the Toshiba power saver setting. Please check the cooling processor speed and the cooling method

My mobile phone is always automatically shut down at the time of the photo.

My mobile phone is always automatically shut down at the time of the photo.

Plug the device into a wall outlet and leave it for about 20 minutes. If it has not powered on at that point try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

I have a late 2008 iMac with dual intels and the fans won't come on anymore. About every 1 1/2 hours, it automatically shuts down to cool off. Is there any way to manually turn it on? Or, do they have to be replaced?

I tried that with no improvement. I think I might have to have the fans replaced. do you know if this is a particularly difficult procedure? Something wierd that I've noticed is that if I have a video on for more than several minutes, the fans comes on, and also when I am on a Skype video conference for awhile. Otherwise, the fan jst doen't come on as the intels heaten up to the point the the auto shut down kicks in...any advise? This definitely interupts my work! Thanks for your help and input thus far!

When I start iTunes on my home computer (Not a MAC), it automatically shuts down, and gives me the message that the Data Execution Prevention security feature has shut it down...what to do?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

Hi there,
This seems very frustrating. An iPad can shut down randomally for many reasons, just like a computer can crash. If it begins to happen regularly, then do contact Apple, but there are no signs that your iPad is malfunctioning from just one shut down like this.
But, you should be able to get all your in-app purchases back. In some apps, there is a 'restore purchases' button, which will download all the purchases you made for free.
In some cases, you can tap to make the purchase again, and it will be downloaded at no charge, however this does not happen with consumable items such as coins and credits.
I reccomend contacting iTunes Store Support at the link below, they will take a closer look at your purchases and give you further steps on redeeming them. They may also refund you if they have been lost.
iTunes Store Support
You can also contact the developer of the app, and report the crash and missing purchases. If you tell me the app, I'll give you the relevent contact in the developers.
Other than that, sorry for the problems, and have a great day,
Nathan

You probably need to restore your iPad now. Pay attention to the last part of this kb article where it explains about using recovery mode. You may need to restore the iPad using that method.

Is an immediate automatic shut down possible?

Hi -
Is there a way to override the Energy Saver automatic shut down timer so that the computer shuts down immediately? I'm referring to the dialog that appears with a count-down timer saying this computer will automatically shut down in 10 minutes.
I'm having a bit of a problem staying up way too late on the computer and I'd like the machine to shut down immediately at a preset time, no matter what I'm doing -- kick me off, so to speak. I'm afraid I tend to just cancel the automatic shut down timer dialog.
I realize I could risk losing some data doing this, but I need some sleep!
Thanks experts, S.

I don't think there is a way to immeidately shut down your machine other than the 10 minute countdown from the Schedule in the Energy Saver.
Forum, correct me if I'm wrong.
Sorry.
Good luck.

Hello urrein, Did you enter the BIOS and set the day, time, and year after you replaced the CMOS battery on the motherboard?

EEM -automatic shut down or switch over of WAN link in OSPF when packet drop increase

Hi,
Need help..
can any one help me how can EEM help for automatic shut down or switch over of WAN link in OSPF when packet drop increase a predefined level.
I have a set up different branches connected together...OSPF is the routing protocol and need to communicate with two branches via hub locations.
need to shut or switch some percent of traffic from primary to back up when packet drop in the link.

I am not sure EEM can do what you want.
Another option could be to use SLA tacking/monitoring. But you will fall back to the new route when you lose some percentage of pings, you can't switch only part of the traffic.
I hope it helps.

Toshiba Satellite A300-20T shuts down after 5 seconds!!

my laptop satellite A300-20T shuts down after 5 seconds of booting , i dont know why ?? and i searched for support in the website and didn't find it in the model list, also i don't know why ???!!
i want to know why it shuts down , and how can i communicate with support

Yours would not appear to be a US model. We need the Part Number for your laptop, like PSAG8U-05K02C. You can find this on the Toshiba label on the bottom of your laptop. As well, what country was it originally purchased in. In addition, what is your operating system version, like Windows Vista 32bit?
