Satellite C855D Toshiba DVD player display suddenly stopped displaying

Please help as its now beyond me. The DVD player has suddenly just stopped. I can hear it and control it but cannot see it. I have checked the diplay button but its all ok.
Help

Im sorry IJK.
I thought it could be possible to download the Toshiba DVD player but it seems that this software is licensed and it cannot be downloaded from Toshiba driver page.
Its part of the Toshiba image. So you can get this tool only reinstalling the Toshiba image using the HDD recovery or the created Toshiba Recovery medium.
However, recovering the system would mean that the whole system would be installed again congaing previous HDD format. So in such case the data backup should be created before starting such procedure.
Another option: you could try to set the system back to early time point before the Toshiba DVD tool has crashed.
Last but not least you could try to install other freeware DVD player software like VLC player. It one of the best player software which is available on the market

NEW Satellite A505 - Blu-ray won't play on WinDVD or Toshiba DVD player

I purchased a Satellite A505 (Windows 7) with a Blu-ray disc player that was pre-loaded with WinDVD, Toshiba DVD player, and one other player (?) - all this software was added 12/21/2009 (by the manufacturer). When I put in a Blu-ray disc WinDVD stops responding and I have to start the task manager to "end task." The Toshiba player says "media not supported." I used the recommended compatibility settings (Windows XP) and it says "incompatible application." I tried using a Sony Vaio w/ Blu-ray and had no problems with the same disc using WinDVD. I don't know what's wrong (and I'm not super tech savvy) - my settings, my drivers, my hardware... ???
I also downloaded the free trial of Corel's WinDVD 2010 and it wouldn't play on that either...
*Note - my model number is A505-S6012 but I can't find this as an existing model on any of the Toshiba sites. It was delivered to the store around 1/4/10, so it's brand new. The A505-S6990 has most of the same features though.

jacuielaura,
I had the exact same issue with the Win DVD BD that was preloaded on my A505-S6014 when I purchased it. I myself also downloaded the Win DVD 2010 free trial and it did not work. Reason being is that they are only allowing people to trial the DVD version of Win DVD 2010 and not the Win DVD BD 2010. I also tried Cyberlink's PowerDVD and it worked but it digitized terribly. So I uninstalled both trials and went to support.toshiba.com and found what I needed to fix it.
I recommend you uninstall the original Win DVD BD version you have and any trial editions you downloaded and follow what I have listed below to fix your problem.
This is only a recommendation. Uninstall and install software at your own risk. If this fix doesn't work for you then you will have to call Toshiba and request a disc to reinstall your original software you uninstalled.
This is how I fixed mine:
Go to Support > Download > then choose your category (Laptop) then your Family (Satellite) then you're model #(A505-6012). Or you can just enter S6012 in the search box and it should bring up a list of all Laptop models with S6012 in them. Choose yours and click Go.
Now from the two drop down lists choose which Operating system: (Windows 7 64 bit) should be what you have, then choose Blu-Ray in the 2nd drop down list.
Download and SAVE these files to your desktop or My Downloads folder so you do not have to search for them again after you reboot.
You should now see this listed:
WinDVD BD for Toshiba for Windows 7 (32/64)(v8.0; 11-05-2009; 176.1M)
Also you will need to download the (Intel Management Engine Interface driver) which is listed in the drop down list under Utility (2nd page):
Intel Management Engine Interface for Windows XP/7 (32/64)(v6.0.0.1184; 10-08-2009; 6.39M)
Reboot after each installation even if it doesnt tell you to.
After both downloads have been installed and the OS is completely loaded again, insert a Blu-Ray disc and hopefully it should automatically play.
P.S. When playing Blu-Ray's I turn my power management to Performance. This may also help.
Good luck!

Satellite P200D-134 - can not use the Toshiba DVD player

I have the Satellite P200D-134 and can not use the Toshiba DVD player.
It displays an error message.
"Required modules missing for this application"
In Vista it worked everything fine.
Now I upgraded Windows 7 Ultimate and all Toshiba programs are gone.
And I can not use the Software HD DVD player or other Software from Toshiba.
What should I do?
Does anyone have any advice? Is there any help?
Please write back in German or English.
Thank you!
Rob

Hi
Did you install the VAP (value added package)?
If not do that!!!
Furthermore I recommend installing the DVD Player Update Check Tool which can be found on the Toshiba European driver page.
With this tool, you can check your notebook, if your DVD-Player needs a Upgrade and if yes, it gives you the download link for the needed upgrade version.
By the way: If you cannot find the DVD Player for Win 7 in P200D section then you can download this from the P500 section!

What can I do about this message -"Toshiba DVD Player has stopped working"

Hi
My DVD Player used to work fine . . . and then I installed iTunes.
It then worked for a while, but only by using 'Run as Administrator'.
After a couple of weeks I started to get the message "Toshiba DVD Player has stopped working".
I have uninstalled iTunes - and uninstalled and then re-installed the DVD Player - but it still will not work!!
Any solutions please?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Ms Q_reeus

My solution to this is to remove Toshiba DVD player and install VLC player. You can get it for free.
It can read all video formats and you don't need some additional codecs.

Re: Portege R600-10Q- Toshiba DVD Player has stop working

Hello,
Please help me,
I can't use the Toshiba DVD Player, every time I open it, appears the windows windows saying that the app has stop working...
When I see the error report, appears 'app crash'....
I've already gone to the Toshiba site to make the bios upgrade and have made the download of a new version Toshiba DVD player and the problem remains the same...
What can I do?
Thansk and Best Regards,
Hugo Cunha

Try removing the CD/DVD Filters from the Registry.
When CD/DVD related software is installed (such as iTunes, Nero, virtual CD software), they install filters into the registry, which can cause compatibility problems.
1) Run Regedit (Start -> Run -> Regedit)
2) Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
3) In the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key, and delete the "LowerFilters" key.
4) Reboot.
If your CD/DVD programs stop working, you will need to reinstall them (preferably with an updated version).
This utility can remove the filters for you:

Failing that, I would backup the data and run recovery.

Toshiba DVD Player on Satellite U300 does not work

I have a new Sat U300 and the Toshiba DVD player refuses to work a, the message is that a module is missing.
Any ideas?

Hi,
wheres the problem. Uninstall the current installed version and reinstall the Toshiba HD-DVD player. It would be the best if you look at the [Toshiba Driver Download Site|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp] for updates of this program.
If this does not help, backup all your files and perform a full system recovery, which should really help.
Otherwise, give some feedback here.
bye

Toshiba DVD player is not working properly since Windows 7 upgrade

I recently upgraded to Windows 7 and can no longer get my Toshiba DVD player to work.
I have tried updating drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling. Also, I tried to download a Realtec driver meant for Vista from a suggestion on another thread and that was even worse. It is currently uninstalled, but when I install it, it either doesn't play at all or I get an error saying that it can't connect to the output device.
Has someone experienced a similar problem on Windows 7?

I have the same problem - I have upgraded my new Toshiba satellite L300-29V and the Toshiba DVD player wont work. The error message I get is "modules needed for this application are missing - if restarting does not work then re-install application" - I don't know how to reinstall - supposedly the application is on a partition on my hard drive but I dont know how to get at it. Any suggestions please?

Toshiba DVD Player in Laptop - Audio Output settings

I am just trying to play a DVD using my Toshiba DVD Player in my Laptop Satellite A300 PSAGCA. It is coming up with an error which says "An error has occured in audio output settings.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

..upgrades all by itself .. Maybe it was one of those times.
Let's do a System Restore to before the last update to see if that helps.
What is System Restore?
I recommend you never let Microsoft (Windows Update) upgrade device drivers. Get them all from Toshiba.

My TFT display suddenly stopped working HELP! G4 MDD DP1.25

Hi all...could use some pointers here. My formac 17" TFT display has suddenly stopped working on my MDD G4 DP1.25 - I use the standard graphics card. Turned the mac on today, and the display just wont turn on, though the silver light on the display flashes (as in standby) which means it's getting power. I also have a CRT display attached to the same card, and it's working as normal which I presume means that the graphics card is not dead. I tried booting from a different startup volume, same result. Any ideas please?? thanks!

no it doesn't support multiple inputs, it just has an on/off switch and is connected to the radeon 9000 pro graphics card (as shipped with the G4) via the ADC connector. Like I said, the VGA monitor that's hooked up to the same card works ok. And....weirder still, the Formac monitor has USB ports on the back, and although the monitor will no longer work (just the pulsing light on the front suggesting it's in stanbdy mode) the USB devices will still work when connected to the monitor - so this means either the card is half working or the monitor is half working!!! But I need to know which before I spend any $$$. Anyone got any ideas please? thanks!

Re: Toshiba DVD Player crashes on start up on an Equium L350-10L

I have never got the Toshiba DVD software to work on this laptop although DVDs can be played using Windows Media Player.
I have uninstalled the version supplied with the laptop and installed the latest version from the Toshiba website. The player will
now run once if it is the first application to be started from a hard reboot, but will crash if any other application has been run before it.
Any ideas as to how to solve this problem will be appreciated

One thing you could try is to uninstall the new player, and clean registry with ccleaner, or tools like this. Then reboot your system and reinstall it.
Do you get any error message when the player crashes after you launched other programs?

My firefox has suddenly stopped displaying web pages only instead the full HTLM

My Foxfire 3.6.13 stopped displaying webpages in full HTML and now only displaying them in text. Like for instance, my homepage is set for www.earthlink.com, but instead displaying as a full HTML, Firefox displays as TEXT page.

Flash Player 9 suddenly stops working,Flash 10 won't install

Hi all!
I have been going around in circles on this.(and you can see on secondary Details what MacMini this is...an older one running Os 10.4.11) Below is a clip of the Disk RepairLog re: the Flash 9 Player suddenly not working. I downloaded the Flash Player 10 (which is all Adobe seems to want to let me do...can't get 9 again!!) It shows Permissions repaired (and I have tinkered with User Permissions too)...No Luck. When I go to Library>Internet PlugIns the Flash PlugIn won't open. I have updated Quicktime (and in Quicktime I DO NOT get the choice to enable Flash ,but a selection under Mime/older encoders..(all are checked). It's Quicktime Pro,latest version. Quicktime should display that Flash option in the Advanced Menu. Here's Clip re: Permissions:
**Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”**

SO....HELP...anyone know what could be happening here?
One other thing grabbed off another forum. Do any of you think this is advisable or could I make matters worse?...See Following:
Okay, solution found! It's dangerous for newbies but experienced Mac users can handle it
Go to System Preferences>Accounts. Right-click on your name on the left, and choose Advanced Options. You can now change your UID and GID. They should be 501. Set them to 0. This gives you the all-powerful (and dangerous) root access. Log out and log in again. If it happens the same for you as it did for me, you'll be scared at first if you've never done this before. The log-in process changes to the more secure form, and you may log-in as root, not as yourself at all!
That doesn't matter, though. Run the Flash Installer and it will do its thing. If you had any kind of permissions setback before this will plow right through it. The Installer opens a test page when it's done so you'll see its success. Now, immediately change your GID and UID (for your own name, of course, not the System Administrator if that's what you're logged in as now) back to 501. Log out immediately after this, and log in as yourself again. The browsers should have working Flash under your name as well. Mission Accomplished!
P.S.: Adobe can still bite it (particularly their tech "support" site), but without Flash the Internet is a much less interesting place, unfortunately, so I'm glad I got it working again.)
Thanks for any help...I can't view the multimedia content on my own web site and this makes things pretty non functional.

When Disk Utility reports failure on exit, it means there is something it can't fix. Usual solution is to use Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro to fix the problem. That Disk utility found issues with Quartz is interesting, as Quartz is OS X's foundation for it's graphics system, and coincidentally your primary issue is with Flash. It may just be coincidental, though.

My external display suddenly stopped working...help?!?

I have a 2009 MBP that I have been using in clamshell mode for the past 1.5 yrs. I've had it hooked up to a LG Flatron M2362D 23" HD monitor for about 6 months or so. I have never even had a hiccup until now. However, about 30 mins ago, my display decided to stop working. I have it hooked up with the mini-DVI. I tried switching to my 19" Dell monitor (which I know works) to check and see if it was just my display, however the problem persists. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?

I wish I could help, but I'm here because I just began having the same problem. Everything worked great until a few days ago. The external monitor works great with my old Dell laptop, just not with my Macbook Pro. This is really frustrating.
