Satellite A660 - troubles with Wi-Fi and keyboard

Hi everyone,
I bought this Satellite A660 3yrs ago. I found the Wi-Fi no work suddenly half year ago. I tried to use fn+f8, it show that "Wireless communication is disabled. Please turn on communication switch".
Then I had to use LAN connectivity.
Other problem appeared 3 weeks ago, the keyboard cannot work correctly.
When I start Windows and use mouse click a item or document, many items or documents will be selected, look like press 'shift' at the same time.
And press keyboard, just appear capital letters and number, cannot use "@#%&*(" etc. if just use fn+num lock, it dont change anything.
If I use fn+f1 firstly ,then go back windows, then use fn+num lock, and mouse and keyboard are good.
I tried to reinstall VAP and WLAN, reset BIOS to default, it was not useful. I use recovery os today, but the problem is still there, no Wi-Fi, no good mouse and keyboard. I have no idea now.
Please help
Sorry for my English

Hi
Regarding the keyboard issue:
I think you should connect the external USB keyboard. In case the external keyboard would work properly, the problem is related to your internal keyboard and this need to be replaced.
Regarding the WLan issue:
>Wireless communication is disabled. Please turn on communication switch"
I found an solution on the Toshiba US page:
[Satellite A665- "Wireless Communication is Disabled. Please Turn On the Wireless Communication Switch|http://support.toshiba.com/support/viewContentDetail?contentId=2782704]
The Satellite A665 is very similar to the European A660 series and the solution is to enable wireless communication, press the Wireless Antenna ON/OFF button located on the System Indicator Panel above the keyboard. Once the Wireless Antenna is ON, you can use the FN+F8 keys to turn wireless on.

Trouble With Opening InDesign and now Photoshop and Illustrator

First off I apologize if this isn't in the correct section. I couldn't find a section specific to my problem since it involves multiple aspects of Adobe products. I was having trouble with InDesign, it kept crashing. So I followed all of the advice I could find on the forums about deleting the preferences and cache information in the Library folder, and that didn't seem to make a difference. So then I thought maybe it needed an update, so I logged into Adobe Application Manager and sure enough, it did. So I clicked on "download" and it stalled there too. Then the manager became unresponsive. I couldn't cancel the update or log out or anything. So then I saw in the forum someone suggested the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool if your manager becomes unresponsive. I ran that and then shut my computer off. When I turned it back on, InDesign started working BUT my Photoshop is completely gone from my system (I never messed with it in the first place since I wasn't having any trouble with it.) And the when I tried to click on Illustrator it said "Do you want to begin your trial?" Huh?
I have had a subscription since 2012, why on earth would it suddenly think that I no longer should have access to these programs? If I log on to my Adobe account it shows my subscription and that it's up to date (last payment was April 5, 2015). The versions I was using were the CS versions that I had downloaded directly from Adobe and when I used to have any trouble or when I got a different computer I could just log into my account and then redownload them. They are no longer showing under my products, so I can't figure out what on earth is going on. The website has changed since the last time I downloaded them, so that partly could be me, but I thought they would at least be showing up under products. I contacted Adobe support and the first person I talked to on chat said "this is clearly a technical issue I am transferring you to someone better suited for this," but that's all he said. And I haven't heard from anyone since so I thought I'd make a topic and see if anyone else out there has had a similar problem.

The versions I am using are the CS6 versions.*

I rented Trouble with the Curve and haven't it yet and I when I went to watch the movie it tells me the file can not be found - please help

Yes, thank you. My apologies, I was typing one handed and did not add that.
Anyway, I have tried deleting the cache, deleting my pics and then re-syncing, etc. and nothing is working This is very frustrating, as I had no problems up until about 2 weeks ago, and now all of a sudden, I have this issue......UGH!

Having trouble with wav files and sample rates

Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy

You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store.

I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store. When synching, the process tops at the back up stage, freezes and I can't close the iTunes window, need to ctrl alt del. When trying to access the store, the progress bar stops halfway. I've googled heaps and tried most of the standard answers - unistall, reinstall, etc, now looking for some help please.
This has only started a few weeks back, after working smoothly for the 2 years of owning the iPhone 3gs.
Any suggestions will be appreciated, it's getting realy frustrating.
Cheers for now,

MacBook Pro with external monitor and keyboard.

Hello, everyone.
I've tried to find the answer for this question but haven't found a clear answer with my Google search.
My older Powerbook G4 will not allow me to work with an external monitor and keyboard with the screen in a closed position. I am about to purchase a new MacBook Pro and would like to be able to use it at home with a larger monitor and keyboard but with the lid closed and its built-in screen turned off. Can this be done ?
How can a MacBook Pro be used (turned-on) with external monitor and keyboard while the lid is closed and the its screen is off ?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Joseph

Hi Niel,
I have the same problem with my MacBook and I followed the instructions you posted. My issue is that when the computer wakes up after clicking the buttons on the keyboard it then quickly goes back to sleep. I can't seem to keep it awake when the lid is closed. I've been searching for an answer without any luck. Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
P.S. After I finished posting this message I figured out my problem. While fiddling with my computer and monitor, I inadvertently disconnected the power. After reconnecting the power, I was able to wake my computer and keep it awake. A note to other people having this issue: the computer must be connected to a power outlet to run in closed mode.

Trouble with LaCie disk and time machine

HI everyone,
I've been having trouble with using time machine to back-up to my 1 TB LaCie drive (purchased 5/12, unfornuately I was dumb and didn't register the drive and no longer have the box with the serial number and there is no serial number on my drive. The only problem I had up until the end of August was that every so often the LaCie drive (using my FW 800 port) would unmount after waking up from sleep.
The end of August the drive unmounted for no reason while I was on the computer doing a task. Could not get the LaCie drive remounted (rebooting, etc. etc.) To make a long story short, ended up calling apple care who took me through resetting my SMC and PRAM to no avail. Was booted to higher level of support who walked me through trying to repair my drive using the disk utiltiy. When that didn't work, she walked me through erasing and reformatting the LaCie drive and starting a new time machine back-up. Every thing ok until about ten days ago.
Last week, when I woke my iMac up from sleep, I got an error saying that the disk was not ejected properly and I could not mount the drive. Restarting did nothing, the disk did not mount. Shutting down and rebooting seemed to solve the problem and the disk was mounted. Every so often I've had the problem with the disk unmounting after waking up from sleep before. So, I changed my energy sleep preferences. At the end of the day when I am done, I'd unmount the LaCie drive before putting the Mac to sleep using the apple menu.
Today I came in to start my day, plugged the drive in and it would not mount. Tried rebooting nothing. Went into the disk utility, at first the LaCie drive passed the disk verify (6:26:25 and 6:26:38). Then I went into repair disk on the indented drive at 6:27:13, I wasn't sure what it is was doing, thinking that it had hung, I stopped the repair at 6:27:24. Exited disk utility, and the LaCie drive mounted. But I was getting a read only error when I tried to back-up using time machine. So, I went back into disk utility at 6:27:35, when I verified the disk (indented disk), I got an error saying the disk need to be repaired. After several minutes the disk could not be repaired. So, I erased and reformatted the drive. Ran a time machine back-up and it seemed to back-up everything on my hard drive. Just ran another verify disk and it passed.
Is the drive failing? Have some other back-ups of my documents, my address book, iCal and am going to make a backup of some of my pref files and important e-mail files and am going to do some more back-ups after I am done.
Have reached out to the women at apple care whom I talked to last August, but don't expect to hear back from her for at least 24 hours.
Here is my disk utility log

I just got a call back from the upper level support person at apple care who had been advising me on my trouble with time machine and my LaCie 1 TB FWD. I had sent her much of the same verbiage as I posted here. As some of you have probably figured out, the verdict is that the drive is probably failing. She says this because I have had to do two erase and reformats. She thought that the intermitant problem that I have had with the drive unmounting when my iMac wakes from sleep could be related to the drive failing.
In the meantime I have a secondary back-up (not using time machine) and the LaCie 1 TB FWD is working for the moment.
Thanks to all who read all my verbiage.
And in the meantime, I've learned something. I marked this question as solved. But I'm open to other things to try.

TS3999 Help! Trouble with my calendar and icloud.

I am having trouble with my calendar and icloud.
Customers send me meeting invites and I can accept them no problem. But if they subsequently change the date or time I get an error message:
Access to “appointment name” in “Home” in account “iCloud” is not permitted.
The server responded:
“403”
to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation
sometimes the time changes in my calendar, sometimes it doesn't, and my customers keep getting messages back from icloud 'accepting' the original date, not the changed date!!
It is driving me an my clients crazy! any help would be appreciated.

I had a problem specific to the Calendar on web-based Firefox (PC) Was asked for a separate sign-in I'd never seen before which didn't work. I resolved this by signing out, signing in again.

Satellite A660 - upgrade with backlight keyboard

I have a Toshiba Satellite A660-141. Originally it was without backlid keyboard, but I recently bot a replacement with backlit function for my laptop, but when I connect everything backlit don't work... Can anybody help me to activate it? Did anybody did the same replacement?
http://1drv.ms/1grM9M8

Hi dude
I found very interesting thread about the keyboard backlight upgrade on Satellite A660
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=58628
The upgrade would be possible if an additional connector JBLG would be present.
Additionaly the new option in BIOS would appear where you could change the backlight function.
In case this option isnt available, the upgrade would not be possible.

Satellite A660 - Will not boot up and HDD boot fail

Hi,
firstly thanks for your time.
Model: Satellite A660 (PSAW3A-07U00R)
The problem started yesterday, the computer was going slow as an application closed, so I held the off button untill the pc turned off. When I restarded the laptop it went to a screen saying: Start windows normally or repair Windows (recomended)
When started normally it just hangs at a blank screen, the repair Windows recommends a system restore to earlier point which didnt work. As it just hangs again. I tried pressing F8 and starting in safe mode but again it just hangs. Then after a few times trying safe mode and another system restore the computer then hangs when I press F8. After this the computer goes past the Toshiba logo screen with F2 and F12 options (which both still work), and then it comes up boot failed then goes blank and comes with boot failed bootfailed with some numbers and letters, then it goes to a small box titled boot menu with 4 options.These are
HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX
CD/DVD MAT****ABD-CMB UJ141ES
FDD
LAN
If I press ESC it goes through the bootfailed loop and ends up at same screen, if I press enter on "HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX" then it quickly comes back to screen and at the bottom it says [HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX] is failed.
I dont understand why it got worse over time. Can anyone think of why this has happend and more importantly how can I get my pc working again? Note: holding 0 then starting does nothing for me atm
regards, Matthew

All you people looking here on this dead thread.....
Toshiba A660 laptops are renowned for having hard drive fails and boot up problems after grinding to a halt.
My solution (after losing 3 hard drives [and a terabyte of family treasured times]) is the following.
Use MALWAREBYTES (free download and use for 28 days)
Scan and fix. Mine found over 300 trojans that 2013 Norton 360 could not find.
Re-boot into safe mode.
SCAN again.
Re-boot and empty the malwarebytes repair files it retains...
Run Norton/McAfee (whichever you have) and you should still have no issues.
Make a back-up repair disc. Ooooops......no you cant...........at least my laptop can`t.
I don`t know why.....
Tell me tosh..... why does windows x64 refuse to allow me to make a system boot disc (even though the laptop is all driver updated and Windows updated)?
Uninstall MalwareBytes when Norton/McAfee tells you there will be a conflict between the two programs.
It tells you to re-boot after uninstalling it.
Then when it re-boots you get a black screen. You cannot even get to bios. You think ytour laptop is turned into a brick frisbee. You pull out the battery in frustration after five minutes.
You replace and re-boot....but again you get no bios or boot up.... you think its destroyed the Bios or graphics somehow....youo can hear the hard-drive but you have no clue whats going on..
Around this time you shake the laptop in frustration.....
Calm down.
Switch on and leave FIFTEEN MINUTES....Ten of which will be a Black nothing screen with maybe a single white underscore line in the top left corner.LEAVE IT ALONE.
Make a sunday dinner for ten people....When you go back to the computer it will be up and running.
When you re-boot again, it will be dead black for five minutes...then boots up... you still think it has a problem... LEAVE IT.
When you reboot again it should work perfect (assuming you have not been overheating it by using it on a cushion on your lap and overheating the insides [use a laptop fan tray]) if you have not shaken your hard drive or caused scrambled damage by pulling the power fifty times like some people do.
I have lost three hard drives and thousands of Gigabytes of treasured family memories discovering the secret the hard way.
Enjoy.
Buy a different brand next time.
ALL Windows system files should be on a SWITCHED (to update) version of Windows.
Spinning drives should be for Data only.

Boot-camp/Windows with cordless mouse and keyboard

I am picking up my 27" quad core iMac tomorrow. In anticipation I bought the Pogue book on Snow Leopard. In it he says that you can't install Windows with the cordless mouse and keyboard but that once installed it can be used with the cordless mouse/keyboard. Will someone please tell me he is wrong .
Thanks.
Alan

I used mine to install Windows. Worked just fine till the Apple Bluetooth drivers were installed, then I just had to connect a regular USB keyboard/mouse to pair the bluetooth keyboard and mouse again.
One suggestion, after you install the Boot Camp drivers and plug in your USB keyboard/mouse, uninstall the "Apple Bluetooth" drivers (I believe there are two of them) and restart your computer. Let Windows automatically install generic drivers for the built in bluetooth, THEN pair your wireless keyboard and mouse. After that you can reinstall the Apple bluetooth drivers if you want, although I don't think it's particularly necessary. The generic drivers seem to work fine in my experience.
You may run into trouble pairing your keyboard and mouse, if so, refer to the "Boot Camp" section on this site, there are millions of threads about it there.

Trouble with Mighty Mouse and iMac

Something weird happened today. I moved my iMac to my fiance's home carefully packing it up in the box it came in. After unpacking and setting it back up, I got these audio "bleeps"(the noise the the computer makes when you press a button that doesn't execute anything). Problem is, this happens even when I scroll around the display. I intially thought that something was wrong with the mouse (or else a key was depressed on my keyboard-which it wasn't), so I changed to another 3rd party mouse. No bleeps coming from the iMac. So just for curiousity, I plugged the mighty mouse into my Macbook. NO NOISE. Now I'm wondering what the heck is up? Why does my iMac react to my mouse this way while my Macbook has no issues? Why does the iMac work fine with a non-Apple USB mouse? The might mouse came with the iMac and is not the wireless one. it worked fine up until this afternoon.
Any suggestions???

okay so I bought another MM at Best Buy. Brought it to my house and it worked fine with my Macbook. So i go to my fiance's house where I have set up my iMac 17". Lo and behold I STILL GET THE BLEEPS. What's more, the mouse makes a physical clicking noise- not through the computer but on the MM itself. ***??? So I start trouble shooting. I unplug all of my HDs and music peripherals. The MM still makes the clicking noise and keeps trying to execute things on the desktop even when I'm not pressing the front area. Then I get the idea to take the iMac downstairs as I recall that I used my initial MM on my Macbook in the kitchen and it worked fine. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. So what in the **** is going on here? My MM is NOT wireless so why is it that ALL of the power outlets on the 2nd floor of my fiance's place screw with the MM?
Is there something on the iMac that I need to change in terms of power handling so it wont be so damned sensitive. mind you, this problem also occurs when using the MM and MAcbook upstairs. What gives???
I would really appreciate some clarification as to what this might be? RF noise?
I' come from many years of being a PC and chasing down problems but this has got me stumped!

Satellite A660 works with 2GB RAM only

Hi
please help me my laptop is Satellite A660 psaw3ew it was works good when it was supply with 6GB ram and i extend ram to 8 G.B and it works good until it stop boot and then i remove the whole Ram and now it is only works with 2 G.B Ram please help me

Hi
There are two possibilities: either the RAM modules are faulty/damage/not compatible or one of the memory slots is damaged.
I think you should test every RAM module in each slot to discover the issue

Satellite A660 freezes during playing games and recovery

I have problem with my Toshiba Satellite A660. Sometimes when I play games it freezes and I can't even move the pointer I all freeze then I have to shut it down with force.
One time it freezes during a recovery and that what make me worried about it would be a high (amount of money) problem.
I tried to take it to a what it call itself a Toshiba-service company and they told me that the problem is solved but it didn't.
So I hope any would help me Im in a bad situation here.

Hello
I can also understand you dude and it must be a hardware malfunction if recovery installation from Toshiba recovery disk doesnt work. I mean usually this shouldnt be a problem because this image is pretestd by Toshiba and shouldnt make any problems.
In your situation I would talk with the service company again. You can ask what they did exactly and if they can check the unit again because you problems with .
Just explain the situation a little bit.
As Mike30 wrote, if you play games use high performance power plan and put the notebook on a clean desk to ensure the notebook is getting enough air and the fan will not be blocked.
