Satellite A500/02J: Cannot get REGZA/HDMI link to work

I have a Satellite A500/02J laptop with hdmi out, and i have a hdmi control program pre-installed from toshiba.
I just recently purchased a REGZA 32AV500A LCD toshiba television and have my computer running through the tv via hdmi.
However, my tv has regza link and as far as I can tell my computer supports regza/hdmi control however i cant get the link to work.
I have a windows meda centre remote which i can use to put the computer to sleep and wake it back up.
However one remote is better than two, also i need to be able to boot the computer from shutdown just by turning the tv on. Under hdmi control i can set the computer to shutdown when the tv is turned off however i dont know how to have the computer boot from shutdown simply by turning the tv on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Hi
The user manual says that the remote control of the connected TV can be used to operate some of the computer functions which are:
use the TV remote control to output the computer screen onto the TV screen
use the TV remote control to launch operate and close applications on your computer
Turn on the TV when the HDMI output is selected using the FN + F5 key
Switch the video output (HDMI or LCD) when executing certain desktop icons
Enable/disable the REGA link function on the computer
But you should also check your TV settings and notebooks BIOS settings.
Im not quite sure if the HDMI REGZA option is available in the BIOS but its worth a check
I have scoured through the user manual trying to find an answer to this. Im not trying to use the remote to control the tv, I want to use the computer to tell the tv to power up. I have a logitech K400 keyboard that I use to both put the computer to sleep and to wake it up.
However, I want the tv to auto power on (and auto power off once the signal is removed) once I wake my computer back up and a signal is sent through the HDMI cable. REGZA link indicates that this is possible, both my tv and laptop have REGZA link. I want to eliminate the remote from my living room.

  • Satellite Pro A120 - Cannot get the PCMCIA card to work

    OK i have a problem with my Satellite Pro A120's (xp service pack 2) cardbus.
    I use the cardbus slot to add firewire conections via a IEEE 1394 cardbus card and have been doing this a long time. The other night my comp went into hibernate with the card still in the slot and still in use and when i tried to use it the next day the card was not working at all.
    So i thought the had died on me and brought another one, this one to be exact [http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16839314003] .
    When i plug the new card into the slot windows starts the installation add new hardware thing but does not find the driver, there is none on the provided CD and it does not conect to windows update to find one ethier. So the new card does not work and does not get installed, it just shows up with ! next to pci device.
    I have looked everywhere on the internet to find the driver, read the manual etc.I even did a fresh install of windows so it might find the drivers but nope.
    The only thing i can think of is the slot does not except 32 bit cardbus but in my manual it says this:
    "The computer is equipted with a pc card slot that can accomedate a type II card. Any pc card that meets industry standards can be installed. The slot supports 16 bit pc cards, including pc cards 16 multifunction card and cardbus pc cards. Cardbus supports a new standard of 32 bit pc cards."
    Any help please
    Thanks

    Thanks for your help but i ahve already tried this including searching the net for the driver and no luck. I've also tried microsoft update but no luck.
    The reason i can't find the drivers is because the cardbus card is supposted to be plug and play but windows doesn't have them.
    The good news is i found out my old card was 32-bit just like the new one so my laptop is compatible. I don't want to just go and by another card incase that one won't work.

  • Where do I get the driver/software disk for Satellite A500/02J

    Hi,
    Newbie here, just want to ask, Is there a driver/software disc for the Toshiba A500/02J Notebook.
    I just bought a new one, and its been formatted, so no recovery partition where the drivers would be.
    I have trawled the net looking for face recognization software, etc, but to no avail.
    There must be an installation disc out there some where..........
    Can anyone help a newbie?
    Regards
    Carl

    Hi
    The notebook was not delivered with the recovery disk because there was a preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
    This software would create the Recovery disk which helps to set the notebook always to the factory settings.
    By the way; the Satellite A500/02J is a Toshiba Australian notebook model and the drivers should be available on the Toshiba Australian page:

    Phillipp,
    I tried it again using "save link as", and this time it actually worked! I just now downloaded several more using the "save link as" option, and it works perfectly. Thanks. Problem solved.

  • On Apple TV, my pictures have loaded, but I cannot get the slideshow function to work.  It has been "loading" 28 pictures for over 5 minutes.  What is wrong?

    On Apple TV, my pictures have loaded, but I cannot get the slideshow function to work.  It has been "loading" 28 pictures for five minutes.  What am I doing wrong?  I have Windows 7 on my PC.

    I don't have any direct experience with D-Link equipment, but I may be able to provide some general advice. See if you can use a Web browser to connect to the D-Link's configuration screen. This probably involves visiting a URL such as http://www.192.168.0.1 . If you haven't changed the sign-on parameters, a quick Google search should find them for you.
    Once there, note as many configuration details as you can find. You'll need those to configure your Time Capsule.
    Use the AirPort Utility to configure the Time Capsule.
    One last thing: It's quite possible that the Verizon network will have locked onto the "MAC" address of your D-Link router. Something needs to be done to reset this. If there's a separate box at your house that came with the FIOS equipment that's "upstream" from the D-Link router, I'd cycle power on it to see if that does the job. Otherwise you'll probably need to call Verizon to ask them to reset things once your Time Capsule is installed in place of the D-Link router.

  • I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with VPN provider.

    You can try this ... hold down on the sleep button and the power button at the same time for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo on the screen, release the buttons and see if the iPad restarts and you can use it.

  • I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap

    I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap. I am trying to export 33 PSD files in BRIDGE to a PDF like I used to do on my other computer with bridge.

    Let's start with the general things.
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

    Hi. If the speakers are using a standard 3.5mm plug, they need to be plugged into the headphone jack. Please clarify which jack you are using.

    I cannot get Adobe Reader 11 to work - what have I done wrong?

    Hi Pat,
    I usually don’t have trouble explaining my problems, but this one is confusing the heck out of me.  I just downloaded Reader 11.  It is installed, I believe.  This is the first time Reader has not worked for me after upgrading to a newer version.  I’ve been reading PDF files forever, but tonight when I went to read a pdf file that I received today, I clicked on the file, expecting Reader to open up and it never did.  Then I tried to read some older pdf files and nothing happened when I tried to open the file.  I’ve been using Acrobat Reader for years so that’s why I’m so confused.
    I downloaded the file from the adobe.com website. and everything seemed to be fine.  My question is indeed vague, but I don’t know any other way to explain what happened.  Should I uninstall and start over??
    Thanks, Elaine
