Satellite A500-15M: Cannot connect to TV using HDMI

Hi,
I have a Satellite A500-15M. I recently tried to connect to my TV so I could watch some online shows on my Hannspree Xv HD ready TV.
The HDMI out doesn't register at all on the TV - the TV displays a message 'not supported' and remains blank (as if there is no signal) - On the PC display settings it doesn't recognise the TV... in fact it [Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel] says that monitor/TV settings are not supported.
But I can connect via the VGA output - although I have to drop the display settings down to 1024x768 for it to show on the telly. Additionally the display on the TV then is mostly pink and red, even though my pc display pic is mostly blue. - the Toshiba start up screen shows on the TV without any issues, and a couple of times the log in screen has displayed fine too, but then sometimes it doesn't...
I know it is not the VGA cable as I can connect to the TV with it on my wife's advent netbook without any issues.
Are there any drivers I need to update/ download? Or settings I need to change?
How can I get my display onto my TV?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi
First of all you should connect both devices (notebook and TV via HDMI) when both devices are powered off. After that power up the TV and the notebook.
You should choose the HDMI channel on TV and then should use the key combination FN + F5 in order to switch the video output to the TV.
If it does not help, try to update the graphic card driver.
It seems your notebook supports the Intel graphic chip. Therefore you could check the Intel page for new drivers.

  • Satellite A500-03P: Cannot connect to WLan using Win 7 + Event message

    Hi all,
    I very recently bought the Satellite A500 with the included offer of Windows7 when it was available end October 09.
    So I got the DVD from Toshibe for the upgrade and followed the steps and upgraded from Visa home premium to Windows 7. I have two issues now.
    1) I am getting a System Event Notification after start up, telling me about the system event log. The full message is below.
    Failed to connect to a windows service
    Windows could not connect to the System Event Notification Service service. This problem prevents limited users from logging on to the system. As an administrative user, you can review the System Event Log for details about why the service didn't respond
    2) I was able to use this laptop for the internet PRIOR to the upgrade, both via a wireless USB drive as well at office via a modem ADSL.
    Now I cannot access the internet after the Windows 7 upgarde!!
    As an example the Optus dial up pop up box appears andwhen I click "connect" it does not connect.
    Can anyone help please??
    Thanks

    Hey buddy,
    1)Have you checked the Service Configuration for this service? The start up type of System Event Notification Service must be always set to Automatic. This service is absolutely necessary for Windows and shouldnt be disabled or set to manual start type.
    Check this!
    2)To be honest I never heard about internet PRIOR but normally it should also be possible to access the Internet with Windows 7.
    Make sure that the WLAN and/or LAN card is installed properly and check the TCP/IP settings. If you are missing some driver you can get it on the Toshiba page.

  • PI 7.11: Cannot connect to server using message server:...

    Hello Guys,
    we make the Application Management for a Customer PI System.
    Scenario:
    - the SAP Gui Connection to the ABAP Stack is routed via SAPRouter and Works fine.
      SAP Gui -> our SAP Router -> VPN Box from Customer -> Firewall Customer -> ABAP Stack PI System
    - WebAccess its working fine, the Customer use Webdispatcher on every PI Server...
      Browser -> VPN Box from Customer -> Firewall Customer -> Java Stack (Port: 5xx00 btw. 81xx (Webdispatcher))
    Problem:
    Our Problem ist, we can not proceed the Integration Builder or the ESB, the Java Web Start works fine and open the Logon Screen Correctly -> but i fill the Logon Screen with my User name and Password and press Logon come the follwing Error:
    "Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://<hostname>.<domain>:8134/P4"
    In the Details from the Error Message:
    "<hostname>.<domain>:53404 Reason: com.sap.engine.services.rmi_p4.P4IOException:
    Cannot open connection to host: <IP-Adress of Central Instance> and Port: 53404"
    The Customer says, the Firewall is open with the IP Adresses and P4 Port but i dont think so...
    Can everybody help me, or have tips for me! I have checked a lot of OSS Messages (PI High Availabilty etc... its all correct on the System)
    Sorry for my bad English
    Best Regards,
    Markus

    Hi Markus,
    did you check if the browser is using a proxy? (In this case your scenario unfortunately won't work).
    P4-port should generally be routed via a proxy (described in the help.sap.com), but within the PI-Tools(JNLP) the proxy-usage is not implemented.  There is even a SAP-note that describes how to check the JavaWebStart-Proxyconfiguration, but this won't help either.
    If there is a proxy defined in the browser everything is working fine till you pass the logon-screen but even with the correct "javaws"-settings you won't be able to go on.
    (This problem is pretty bad if you do have developers and the SAP-servers seperated because of security issues. I'm hoping that this malfunction will be solved with upcoming patches.)
    Solution: Establish a connection without any proxy in between.
      E.g.: a terminal server in the same network
    It would be helpful to find more people with the same problem to force a fix from SAP for that.
    If anyone else is having problems with this, please add a comment to this thread.
    Best regards
    Christian

  • Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://xiidhasoft:50004/P4

    Hi SAP Guru's
    When PISUPER or any any of the enduser is trying to login in the Integration Builder , they are getting error
    Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://xiidhasoft:50004/P4
    I have tryed to search in SDN and got below solution but no success
    1. Exchange Profile of PI - http://host:port/exchangeProfile
    2. Check with the rmi port number.
    3. if rmi port number is empty or any number is present ( check with Tr code: SMICM - services - check for p4 port number - it will be ex: 5<nr>04)
    4. fill the rmi port number as present in the P4.
    OR
    implement note 864268
    I have Netweaver PI 7.1 .
    Please suggest some alternative solution.
    Thanks & Regards
    Vinay Patel

    You may check your local PC Java Network Setting.
    Troubleshooting:
    Probably Javau2122 WebStart does not detect the correct Proxy Settings. In this case please proceed as follows:
    To change the Proxy Settings for Javau2122 Web Start:
    1. Click Start --> Run  and enter javaws. Press button OK.
    2. Control Panel -> Programs ->Java -> Network Settings...
    3. Select Direct Connection to switch off the proxy settings and press button OK.
    If this still does not work, select Use proxy server to set manually the HTTP Proxy and Port.
    Contact your network administrator for the correct settings.

    Since a I have intalled OS X Lion I cannot connect internet mobile using my ZTE mobile pen.

    It sounds like you need updated drivers. They are hard to find for that thing. This is what I found on a cursory search:

    You should consider contacting the manufacturer or cell provider that sold you the modem for support.

  • 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 L300D PSLC0E - Cannot connect to TV

    I have a problem with either my laptop or TV. I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D model number - pslc0e-017017en.
    I'm trying to use a VGA wire to a Samsung TV but its not working.
    I've try FN+F5 and nothing appears. Is this a common problem, do I need 2 install something?
    Please help.

    Hi
    The question is what cable did you use and how did you connect it to the TV and if you have chosen the right channel on the TV!
    As far as I know this notebook supports ONLY VGA (RGB) port. Using this port you can transmit only the analog video signal.
    For example; you cannot connect VGA to DVI. This will not function!
    If you want to connect the external monitor you will you have to use the VGA cable and should connect the both devices using a VGA cable.
    By the way; its very important that you would use the Toshiba certified graphic driver!!!

  • Cannot connect to database using the Upgrade Simulation Tool

    I have installed the Upgrade Simulation Tool on my system and when I try to run the tool my system works in the for awhile in the background and creates the _Simulation mdf and ldf files and a .bck file.  After 3 or 4 minutes it gives me an error "Cannot connect to the database".  
    It looks to me like it is connecting to the database because it is creating the files in the SQL Data folder.  I have tried to run it on several databases and get the same results.
    Thank you, Jeff

    Hi,
    You may not have the ability to upgrade it directly.
    He does have the ability.
    When downloading Pl 42, it is cleary marked as "Upgrader", which means it can be used for upgrade (in this case simulation) from a lower version than 2007A
    Patchlevel which are marked as "patch" are suitable only for updating the PL within the very same version of SAP Business One.
    This tool should run under 2007 system I believe.
    The Upgrade Simulation tool was designed in orderto test an upgrade, therefore it can run at a machine where 2005 version is installed. Technically speaking it creates a second SBO-common, which can be used only with the special designed (read only) client of the tool.
    Jeff, you should check access rights of your SQL Data folder.Maybe grant user "Everyone" modifying rights to that folder. In addition you could try to detach a DB and move the related *.mdf and *.ldf to another folder where no access denied rights were applied.
    If using MSSQL 2005 create via ODBC a Native Client connection to the Server, although you might just working locally only.

  • Cannot connect to database using SQL*Plus

    Hi, I have Oracle 10g XE installed in my labtop and I cannot connect using SQL*Plus.
    I can connect using the broser User Interface though, which I was able to do after doing the following procedure to change the password of the sys account:
    -     open a command prompt
    -     - type sqlplus
    -     On the “Enter user-name” line, type /as sysdba
    -     On the SQL> prompt, type alter user sys identified by NewPassword;
    But the thing is that even though I am able to connect using sys/NewPassword from my browser UI, I dont get the same result when doing it using the SQL prompt.
    What I am trying to do is this:
    SQL> connect sys/NewPassword
    Then I get first a warming saying that I need to use either sysdba or sysoper to connect to the system account, but neither of those work.
    Can anyone advice me on this matter?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for that.
    I run the command to list the usernames on the database and I got SYS and SYSTEM in the list. But again, when I try to use SYS with a password that I know is working because I can access it through the browser UI, it doesnt work. It seems like this sys is different to the sys I used in the UI.
    I dont know if I am explaining myself correclty... In the Browser UI I use sys, and a password and I get connected to the sys account. However, if I try to use the same sys.password combination from my sqlplus prompt, I get error messages
    Does this make sense at all?

  • Cannot connect to internet using apple applications

    Hi,
    I cannot connect to the internet using these apple applications: Safari, Software Update, iTunes.
    I can connect to the internet using Firefox and iChat.
    I have just reinserted my OSX 10.4 discs and reinstalled the software (making an archive and using my old settings choice). But it still doesn't work.
    Why won't apple applications connect to the internet?

    Lisa W wrote:
    I just updated to 10.4.11 and tried to run my brand new Safari 3. NO GO.
    I'm having a much smaller problem (just accessing certain sites) which I think may have begun with 10.4.11. I'd agree that you might want to try launching the disk utility and repairing permissions. Then you may want to run Software Update again and see if it finds other updates that may be required. Sometimes after a revision patch application, especially if you don't apply patches soon after their release, there are other applications and stuff which need to be updated after you've run the initial update. It's not a typical thing, but it does happen on occasion.
    The only time I've really had a problem with an update was, I believe, 10.4.9... I think I let Software Update do it's job, but wasn't ready to save and quit an open document or two, so just did something I'd done before, without issue... I "force-quit" Software Update. This was not an advisable move, as it turned out. Indeed, I think that time, after staying up all night trying to suss out the problem, was when I found a couple other people who'd had similar issues with the update because it required a second re-start after patch application. In my sleep-deprivation-induced state of temporary insanity I selected a user name which I now find rather embarrassing... I don't remember picking "MacCrackHead", actually... LOL ... but that's another story.
    If you have an external drive that you've backed up your system install to, you may be able to boot off of it and see if things work normally (as I did when I moved from 10.4.8 to 10.4.9 and had the issues)... Ultimately I ended up making a second back-up of my external back-up and running the 10.4.9 update offline. It went well, so I cloned my back-up back to my normal start-up. I can't remember now what the issue was then, but it was pretty problematic for me.
    My routine, when I see an important update available is now:
    1) Don't update when Software Update finds something;
    2) Save my work and close all applications.
    3) (Recommended): Bring my back-up clone of my start-up drive up-to-date.
    4) Run software update.
    5) Restart when it tells me to (required for many updates, and all system version updates)
    6) Run software update again on re-boot to see if there's anything else that follows... (usually none)
    7) Run disk utility and repair permissions.
    Good luck resolving your issue, Lisa.

  • Cannot connect to Internet (using Safari)

    Hi all.
    I got my Macbook (unibody) for about 7 months ago. I have never had any problems with it, but now suddently Internet has stopped working. I am using only Safari. It just says "cannot connect to Internet" when i try get online. The weird thing is that Internet works to all other computers here at home, but not on mine. I have checked that all the cords are plugged in and all lights are on. I have tried using the internet cords for the other computers on my Mac, but they dont work. The cord i am using is working on other computers too, so there is nothing wrong with it. It is like my Mac doesn´t "recognize" that i have the cord plugged in. When i am on the systems settigns it says that everything is offline, and when i am on the Ethernet settings it does not have any IP adress written or anything, and i have chosen "Use DHCP".
    What should i do? I was watching a movie yesterday and had the laptop in my lap, maybe it got overheated or something? Or is it something wrong with the network card? Please help, this is so frustrating!

  • Cannot connect to receiver using AirPort Extreme due to password protection

    I have a new AirPort Extreme and Harman Kardon receiver. I am trying to connect the HK receiver to my home network, after entering in all the necessary info (IP, subnet mask etc) I still cannot connect to internet radio, Pandora etc. I called HK and they say it is because my home network is password protected. They recommend I disable to the password and keep it without a password. Is this the only option I have?

    There is no reason to do this if your HK receiver cannot connect using wireless, as appears to be the case here.  You must have misunderstood the HK support person, or they misunderstood you when you spoke with them.
    The information in the manual only talks about a wired Ethernet connection.  There is no information that I can find that would indicate that the HK Receiver will be able to connect to the wireless network using wireless.
    Unless you can provide another link that would indicate otherwise, you will need to plan to connect the HK receiver using a wired Ethernet cable, or use a pair of EOP adapters to send the signal over the AC wiring in your home.
    It would also be possible to use an AirPort Express to connect to the AirPort Extreme over wireless by locating the AirPort Express near the HK receiver and then in turn connecting a short Ethernet cable from the AirPort Express to the HK receiver.
