Satellite L300-17L is putting itself on stand by all the time without any reason
Hello Eldorado,
i am sorry that this is not a question in connection to the topic, but i have L300 - 17L laptop and from time to time it is shutting down (more specifically putting it self on stand by) without any reason.
It is not the cooler or anything else..
The battery is full, and that is happening while i am writing or working on the laptop generally!
The local service says that is nothing wrong with the laptop, i am so nervous, i cannot work , it is interrupting my work ..
PLEASE HELP ME! thank you
Hi
So what happens exactly?
Does the notebook shuts down or goes into standby mode?
You said it happens from time to time this means that it would not be easy to replicated this issue and I think the technician was not able to replicate this is it right?
What applications are running if this happens?
Did you try to restore the notebook back to factory settings using the HDD recovery or Recovery disk? Do this!
Check also if your BIOS is up to date!

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?
The "fix" is to get the phone repaired. There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you. -
My iPad keeps locking itself every few seconds, any ideas how to fix it... Drives me crazy as the screen keeps going blank and I have to constantly put in my pass code every few seconds. Can someone help me out please. The pass code lock is set at 10 minutes but it's happening every few seconds :(
I've run into the issue and it seems to be related to an app not fully supporting the iOS you're on, the reboot doesn't usually solve it.
I've solved it in the following manner(s):
1) Backup the device to iCloud, then erase the iPad (Content and Network Settings).
2) Setup the iPad and choose to restore from iTunes/iCloud Backup (wherever you backed it up)
3) Perform any software updates
I have not tried simply performing the software updates (which may fix it, but if it doesn't you won't be able to perform the above steps).
Enjoy. -
Machine turns itself on all the time
Hi - Ive installed Leopard on 2 of our machines - the iMac, which is (mostly) okay after the transition, and my partner's Mac Mini. The Mini turns itself on every day despite the fact that none of the schedule options are set. It is on the network, although the setting to "wake" for admin is not set. (Im not sure what time it turns on - it's always already on by the time I open the office at 8.30 am). Im now way too put off Leopard to install it on my iBook - apart from the millions of bugs and glitches Leopard has, making my iBook Tiger my only stable machine, I really cant afford to have a charged laptop turning itself on all the time!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
RodYou might try resetting the PRAM and power management unit of the computer. To reset the PRAM, hold down opt-cmd-P-R on boot until the thing chimes twice, then release the keys and let it boot normally. To reset the power management unit on the Mac Mini, follow the instructions on this page: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300574

Satellite L300-17L - don't see any wireless networks detected
Hello all,
I just bought a Satellite L300 - 17L. All drivers seem to work except for the wireless card.
First, I installed the driver pointed by this site but I discovered that the card is actually an Intel Pro 3945 card, not Realtek as specified in the driver section.
Now I installed the driver for the INTEL PRO 3945ABG, version 11.5.1.15 and also the PRO Set utility, and I don't see any wireless networks detected.
I have a colleague that sees many networks using the same adapter but on a other Laptop.
I also tested the switch on the Laptop and it is on.
Did you experience this kind of problems on your system ? Please help me because I am really sad because of this issue.
Thanks & Best regards
ValentinHi
As far as I know this notebook was equipped with the Intel 11a/b/g WLan card.
You should firstly check if the WLan router and the WLan card use the same WLan standard.
In the WLan card properties (in device manger) you could check this settings choosing Advanced tab.
I would also recommend checking if the WLan was enabled properly

I recently inquired on where to get support and drivers for this newly bought laptop and was correctly directed. Thanks.
The problem I have is that when I try to install some of the utilities that I got for this laptop I get an error message of a missing module. I dont know where to find it. For instance, the Power Saver that I downloaded doesn't even install. When I start to install I get the following message;
A fatal error has occured. This program will be terminated. Code: 0x2
I get this message despite formatting my computer several times. What could be the problem?
Please help.Satellite L300-17L
When you look up the Toshiba drivers and utilities here, you'll need to look up the Satellite L300 with Short Model No. PSLBCE.
when I try to install some of the utilities that I got for this laptop I get an error message of a missing module.
Tell us at least what version of Windows you use. That laptop apparently starts life with none.

Re: Satellite L300-17l - Toshiba Power Saver gives me error after install
When I bought my L300-17l all drivers from Toshiba drivers download pafe worked ok.
Recently I reinstalled my XP OS and now I started installing again all the drivers. LAN was ok, WLAN was ok, Display driver was ok.
But when I get to install Toshiba Power Saver ( URL: [http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/pwrsav-en-20080519172104.zip] ) it gives me this error ( it shows the error either after I click finish on the instalation or before installing has begun, as you can see on this screenshot ) - [http://www.picvalley.net/v.php?p=u/2381/9078672171740560287.JPG]
I tried later this - i go ot control panel and open Toshiba Power Saver, but then it gives me another error - " CANNOT open because you do not have access rights to use "TOSHIBA Power Saver".
I reinstalled again my XP and it still gives me this error....I wonder what the problem could be....PLS help meHi
Satellite L300-17L belongs to the PSLBCE series.
I chosen this model number and found exactly the same power saver which you have tried to install.
Therefore I assume you have chosen the right Power Saver Utility for this notebook model.
But did you install also the Common Module?
This software should be installed firstly before any other tools installation.
Did you update the Win XP to the latest state?

Sound drivers for Satellite L300-17l don't work
I have installed XP Sp2 on my Satellite L300-17l. I downloaded the drivers I need from Toshiba official site. The display and WLan and Lan drivers were ok but the sound driver does not work. After installing the sound driver windows says "Your new hardware was installed but may not work properly".
I have tried 2 versions of the driver that are in the official site but neither one worked. I started to worry if the sound hardware on my new notebook is ok at all?
Any solutions ? I can't get the problem for couple of days now..need help dudesaBefore you would install the sound driver you should firstly install the
AUDIO Patch *KB835221* and *KB888111*.
These are Microsoft hotfixes. Search in the net for the download
After installation reboot the OS and then try to reinstall the sound driver again. -

10.4.3: My PB G4 is put to sleep all the time!
After upgrading to 10.4.3 I have big trouble with my quite new PB G4 1,67 with 1,5 G RAM.
Now and then it will go crazy and put it self to sleep. When I try to wake it it will go to sleep again, and again and so on. A restart can temporarily solve the problem for a while, but then - BOM - sleep again... and again and again...
Very annoying!
I have tried lots of stuff to solve this:
1. Repaired all file-rights
2. Checked the Energy savings; it will go to sleep even when I set it up to NEVER go to sleep...
3. Reset PRAM
4. Reset PMU
5. Cleared NVRAM
6. Checked the system.log, it says:
kernel[0]: System Sleep
kernel[0]: System Wake
over and over again, and no indication of why or what triggered the sleep.
7. Installed a temperature program (Temperature Monitor) to see if the computer was too hot or any sensors where broken. But found nothing, and the computer will go to sleep even when its cold.
8. Reinstalled the system twice (Archive and install) Even had problem when only using 10.4.0 - before any updates.
9. Ran Hardware test, all passed.
After all these actions I figured it was time to leave the computer at a Apple workshop, but they couldn't find anything and suggested it could be the extra 1 GB memory module. I took it out and everything worked for a while, but now the problem is back!
I then tried to start another account "test", but it wouldn't help either.
All I can think of now is that the memory module of 512 MB that came with the computer maybe is loose or something, will try to refit it tomorrow.
Or could it be the hard drive that is falling apart? (I dont have anything connected to the computer on USB or Firewire).
Am I the only one with this problem? Suggestions? Any help would be useful!
Thanks in advance.
PB G4 1,67 Mac OS X (10.4.3)Mogge,
Not sure if this is related, but my 2.0G G5 PowerMac puts itself to sleep too. The differences being that it only starts happening after I have used the Sleep function once, and it started happening around 10.4.2, but it then shows the same symptoms you are seeing.
I never queried it because I don't have to use Sleep on the PowerMac, I was just trying it when found this out.
Hope you get this problem resolved, and maybe my info will help spark someones brain into life!

Ever since I installed Lion (version 10.7), I am unable to reconnected to my Time Capsule and get on the internet after I put my computer to sleep and then wake it back up. This doesn't happen all the time -- just when I put my computer to sleep when Time Machine is backing up. If I put my computer to sleep when it's not backing up, it's fine. If it is backing up though, when I wake my computer up again, it is unable to reconnect to the Time Capsule to allow me to use the internet. I have to wake the machine up, click on "Stop Backing Up", wait 30-60 seconds, click "Turn Wi-fi off", wait another 30 seconds, turn it back on and then I am fine. If I just turn wifi off and on without stopping the backup, it doesn't work and I am still unable to connect to the internet. I currently have 10.7.1 but it still has the same bug. 10.6.x did not have this bug. Other than "don't put your computer to sleep when Time Machine is backing up," any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
In this case, that hint may help.
According to Apple support, some configuration files may get damaged or corrupt by time, after updates or upgrades and should get deleted ocasionally.
OK ... switch off wifi on the machine.
Then go on and delete the files mentioned below.
You will find the files on your system drive (not your home folder) as follow:
/library/preferences/com.apple.preferences.accounts.plist
/library/preferences/com.apple.preferences.sharing.plist
/library/preferences/SstemConfiguration/preferences.plist
/library/preferences/SstemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
If there are files in this folders with the same name but additional .orig at the end, delete them too.
It is possible that not all files are on your system. That will be ok.
The files will get newly created by system on reboot.
For that reboot the machine.
Join your wireless again.
If you are using Lion, the Library is hidden. You have to use (menu bar) "go to" -> "go to folder" on finder to access them.
If the problem (unlikely) persists, report back here.

I have a iPhone 4 and all of a sudden when I answer a phone call the person on the other end can't hear me ???? I can hear them , so I've had to put it on speaker for all my calls - ? Any tips on how to get it back to being able to speak normally
Morning Lupoipia,

I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button. a 2 week old computer is not supposed to do this! it wastes all its time being so flashy that it just craps out all the time. sometimes i feel like i should have stayed with my virus covered PC. at least when it shut down randomly you could turn it back on, but with the macbook pro, it just keeps restarting itself over and over. need help with this, any answers?
Here's a novel thought. Take it back to the vendor. Should have done that one week ago.
