Satellite L300-243 to connect to JVC camcorder

Toshiba Satellite L300-243 was purchased primarily to use with Pinnacle 12 to do video editing.
My previous PC had a 4-4 firewall connection but there is no similar connection on laptop.
Do I use a 4 - USB lead to make the download from camcorder to laptop?
Or is there a different socket on laptop I need to use?
Bob

Hi
I assume the JVC camcorder supports the firewire interface and it was connected to the computer via firewire cable.
Unfortunately, it seems that Satellite L300-243 does not support the firewire port.
In your case you could purchase an Express card which contains firewire port.
Then you could connect the camcorder to the notebook.
Cheers

  • Satellite L300 PSLBGE network connection drops at random times

    Hey,
    I've had this problem with my laptop since I bought it 1.5 years ago.
    Now I run Windows 7 x64, with the latest bios (version 2.20-WIN; date 25/02/10), chipset and wireless (the card is a: Realtek Wireless LAN Adapter 8187B; driver version: 62.1182.0331.2010) drivers.
    The problem is that my network connection drops at random times.
    This happens both with my wireless and lan card and it happens with a variety of routers ( at work and at home I use a linksys wrt54gl but I have tried it on other routers with the same result).
    I don't think this is a hardware fault since the network seems to work fine under Linux ( I've tried Ubuntu 10 ) . Also a while back I took it to the warranty service and they said the hardware is fine but I should "not use many programs at the same time and use Windowx XP".
    From what I understand the various devices (wireless card, network card, webcam, etc) inside the laptop are connected to some sort of usb hub. My guess is that is something wrong with this 'hub' since the webcam is also working faulty.
    Thanks,

    >From what I understand the various devices (wireless card, network card, webcam, etc) inside the laptop are connected to some sort of usb hub. My guess is that is something wrong with this 'hub' since the webcam is also working faulty.
    No, the WLan card and LAN card are not connected to any USB interfaces just the webcam so this cannot be any USB issue.
    I think it could be an Windows issue since Linux is OK
    I think you should check the power management settings in Win 7 and for Wlan /LAN card. This can be done in device manager -> WLan / LAN card properties -> Advanced tab.
    I recommend also updating the Win 7 to the latest state install all updates and patches

  • Re: How to connect camcorder to my Satellite L300-1AD?

    Hi everyone
    I hope someone out there can help me - my problem is driving me mad!!
    I have a Satellite L300 1AD(?) laptop and I am trying to connect my camcorder to it so that I can watch and edit my holiday videos. Apparently I can't use a USB cable and need an "i link" cable or firewire cable. However, I can't find where to connect it onto the PC. Also there are so many different "pin" variations.
    Am I able to do this at all? I know I am female but I consider myself to be quite good usually at things like this. If you need anymore info please let me know.
    Please help - I am getting desperate?? I want to see the koalas and kangaroos in Oz!!
    Thanks in anticipation

    Hello
    Your notebook model is not known to me but if your notebook doesnt have firewire port (i-LINK) you must use expresscard solution.
    It is something like cards shown on http://www.synchrotech.com/products-expc/expresscard-firewire_00.html
    Talk with your local dealer. Explain exactly what you want to do and I hope he can helps you.

  • Satellite L300D-243 and WLAN - limited connectivity

    I've just got an L300D-243 and it is mostly lovely, but ... when I try to connect to our wireless internet I keep getting a 'limited connectivity' notification. I'm using system pack one so it's not the fault known in system pack 2. It works fine when I use the internet cable, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a computer I can carry around.
    So, can anyone suggest a cure?
    Trizia

    Hi!
    Please check the link posted by Feliks. It seems that it could solve your issue with the WLAN connection.
    Furthermore I can recommend installing the newest WLAN driver from Intel. On my Satellite L300 I had some issues with the WLAN connection and a driver update could solve the problem! :)

  • How to connect my Satellite L300 to the TV?

    Hi...
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-2C4 and wish to connect it to my Toshiba 32HV10E plazma
    The tv have a hdmi input, so I bought VGA adaptor and connect it to the computer
    Unfortunately it doesnt work.
    The computer can recognise the tv but not the same with the plazma
    Anyone?

    I agree with Tom.
    Problem is that your notebook has external monitor port only and can send video signal only. Many TVs have such port but I dont know if this plazma TV has such port too.
    As Tom already wrote try with VGA adapter.
    > The computer can recognise the tv but not the same with the plazma
    To be honest this sentence is not so clear to me.

  • How to connect Satellite L300 laptop to a LCD TV

    I am trying to connect my satellite L300 laptop to LCD tv via VGA port. I am having trouble getting the full desktop on TV. The left hand side of the screen is not visibe and there is a black strip on the right hand side of the screen. I have vista home premium edition installed and i am using 1360x768 resolution. Could any one please help me fix this.
    My satellite L500D laptop connects fine with the TV usinG xactly same settings.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Please check in your graphic card settings if the option: Full Screen (no border) has been chosen.
    This can be found in Aspect Ration Options.
    Ive got a U400 with Intel graphic chip and this option is available there.
    Furthermore some notebooks support an additional BIOS option where the screen could be set to full screen (no borders)

  • Satellite L300-29X - How to connect to television?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-29X with a mini-VGA output and would like to connect it to my television, preferably through the DVI-I dual analogue/digital input, but cannot find a cable that will do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I live in the UK and as such, only have access to UK based retailers and do not want to pay the exorbitant costs of importing from overseas.
    If all else fails, I could connect through the SCART input on my TV, but again, could anyone point me in the right direction of a cable that could do this?
    Cheers in advance for any help.
    C
    I've also just noticed my TV has a 9-pin RS232 input as well if that is any help?

    OK, I think I know what I need now, obviously I've been getting myself confused somewhere.
    I must have read something somewhere about mini-VGA ports and got my wires crossed, so to speak. I tried a VGA cable from an old monitor and it fits nicely, it's just that my laptop doesn't have the bits for the screws to go into, so I presume that is the only difference that makes it "mini".
    Anyway, thanks for all the help guys and hopefully once I can locate the correct cable and adapter, I'll be able to watch my new star trek film boxset on a decent size screen! Good Times! :-D

  • Connecting a JVC GR-240 Mini DV camcorder to iMac

    Hello,
    I am completely new Mac user, having used recently decided to ditch my home Dell Pc in favour of a Mac. I have tried to connect my JVC GR-D240 mini DV camcorder to the iMac via the firewire port. Neither iMovie HD (which I downloaded) or iMovie08 seem to recognise the camera – the only source they allow is the build in iSight camera. The camcorder is placed in play mode, but nothing happens.
    I can connect the camera to my old Dell PC, record to avi and then copy this to the Mac, but this is not an ideal solution as I am getting rid of the PC soon.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.
    PS – I have one of the new silver iMacs.

    Hi Philip,
    connect the cam, switch it on and start the System Profiler (About this Mac menu).
    Look into Hardware/Firewire, there you will see the firewire bus and your cam should be shown.
    If this is not the case, then there might be something wrong with your installation or your mac.
    You could also download the Firewire SDK from http://developer.apple.com/sdk/
    There you will find the AVCBrowser in the applications folder of the SDK. I don't know but it might be possible that you also have to install xcode, which you will find on your DVDs shipped with the mac. Connect the cam, start AVCBrowser and you cam should be shown. In the Browser you can check a lot of thinks on the cam.
    I had only one problem with a Sony with dead fw-port, but as yours still works with the Dell it seems to be somethink on the mac side.
    Try repair permissons and have a look into /var/log/system.log, if you find anything about firewire there post it.

    I am trying to connect my JVC Hard Disk Drive Camcorder to my IPAD 2 via the Apple camera kit. I am able to download photos, but video files not showing. Camera shows Mass Stoarge. How can I download videos please?

    The file name only has 6 characters and I'm not sure what the .mod format is. So that's why they are not seen by the iPad.
    Another way to transfer. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    Is it possible to connect a CRT TV to the Satellite L300 using lead from the external display connection to the TV AV3 Video socket (yellow)? I am not having much success. What settings do I need ? I am using a Panasonic Quintrix 100Mhz TV and I am told by the manufacturer that it should work.

  • Satellite Pro L300-1B9 cannot connect to my Wireless router

    Hi!
    I have activated the wireless nw on SAT L300 PRO 1B9 - but with many fight...
    First I needed to find the switch to enable (I never though that it have... :-) ).
    Then I needed to deinstall Atheros in Windows, and set the flags on (enable) in the Windows driver.
    But in both Linux and Windows I couldn't connect to my Wireless router.
    My luck was that some of my neightbours have security-disabled, open wireless network, what I could map to test.
    The test was succecfully with that network, but my wireless router was unreachable.
    From other machine I could reach it.
    The result was:
    If I set the router to broadcast the SSID, both OSs (Ubuntu + Windows) can use wireless network.
    But if I disable the broadcasting (to protect my router), the network driver cannot use my router, it does not matter I pre-set the SSID...
    A router is WRT54G, and it is working with other computers if I hide the SSID, but with SAT L300 Pro cannot connect (with this option).
    Do anybody knows why? What I need to do to I could hide the SSID from the bad guys?
    Thanks for any help!
    Regards:
    dd

    I dont know which Windows OS do you use but if you use original Vista, I think, right WLAN driver is part of the package. So WLAN card must be installed properly.
    It is not easy to say what is wrong there but if the notebook can see and detect your WLAN network on notebooks side everything must be OK. Try to restart your router and check all settings.
    In my opinion there is some problem with WLAN settings.

  • Satellite L300 1BD - VGA output is not working

    Hello.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 1BD (Model PSLB8E). I was usinng the VGA output to connect to my LG tv. It worked fine until last week. All of a sudden the TV doesn't get reckognized by the laptop anymore. The TV says that no external device is connected. I have tried different things: starting up with the TV connected and not connected through the VGA cable, pressing the FN+F5 button, removing the battery and pressing the powerbutton, checked for the latest videodriver, removed the existing driver and installed it again...unfortunately without any result. I also tried to hook the TV up with a different VGA cable, but no result. It's not the TV, because i did try to hook the laptop up to a TFT monitor and it didn't work as well. Tested the VGA cable with my friends laptop: it works perfect.
    The strange thing is: if i hook the TV up to the laptop, i can hear the laptop is making the 'new hardware detected' sound and the laptopscreen even turns black for a second, then everything appears back on the laptopscreen. If i check the graphic properties with the rightclick on my desktop, i can see that they are no set for 'clone device'. As if the laptop knows, something is connected, but just can't transfer the image to the TV screen.
    The graphic adapter is a Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset family.
    The OS is Vista Home Basic (32).
    It's a shame the VGA output seems to be out of order since i watch tons of video's and movies through my laptop on the TV screen. I don't know if this could be a software or a hardware malfunction. If anyone has an idea or some clue, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

    I have exactly the same L300 19F with the same graphic adapter, only with Windows 7 Ultimate (32) and was watching DVD's through my Toshiba TFT TV-set/VGA Monitor for a couple of years as well as all of a sudden it doesn't work anymore. The same as the gentleman who started this thread I checked everything there is to check: my laptop/another screen, another laptop/my screen, drivers, new cable, even installed the (original and licensed) W7 OS again etc. etc. etc. TO NO AVAIL !!!
    Since this is the first time that I can't solve a technical computer problem in more then 25 years I got mad and started to think what the heck I did different over the last few weeks, and now I think I know the culprit.
    One day, a few months ago, I saw a warning in my screen to flash my BIOS with a new upgrade from the Toshiba website. Having seen that message for several months I did not give it much attention because everything worked fine, and the reason given for the update was a quote "password protection update" unquote, a function I don't use anyway and that's why I didn't run that fast.
    After a while I decided to flash the BIOS, just to get rid of the annoying message and now I am quite sure that it really did kill my VGA output capabilities.
    So, instead of the nice "Check your Power Cord" and "Go to the Official Toshiba Dealership" hints, maybe there is some technical solution. Maybe there might even be a nice technical Toshiba person have a look into the BIOS update and what the heck the differences are with the old one.
    At the very least you could offer a "downdate" of the current valid BIOS for this type, because everything used to work pretty good and, as a 25 year long time customer of Toshiba laptops, I could be entitled to a little better (quality) answer.......
    My friend Marcinondrums and I still have hopes.
    Thank you !!

  • Satellite L300-1G8 - Microsoft Works Suite has stopped working

    Hiya,
    first of all i will say i am only on my 2nd computer so im not exactly a brainbox on them.
    I have a Satellite L300-1G8 with microsoft vista home premium 32bit.
    I have only had this laptop for less than 2 months today when i was using microsoft works suite, word processor it suddenly shut down, i reloaded a document that it had auto saved and then closed it.
    When i tried to open another blank document it let me do it but it wouldnt let me paste on what i needed.
    Now i cant seem to open anything in microsoft works and if i try i get the message:
    +"A PROBLEM CAUSED THE PROGRAMME TO STOP WORKING CORRECTLY. WINDOWS WILL CLOSE THE PROGRAMME AND NOTIFY YOU IF A SOLUTION IS AVAILABLE".+
    What is this and why wont it work?
    I have not used it much in fact i think it might be the first time. I have been on the microsoft site and its all greek to me, anyway the bit i did understand was it said "if your windows was pre installed go to Toshiba" or words to that effect.
    I have been on the Toshiba site and thats all greek too. I dont understand any of it and i cant seem to find any help from them, the only help i can find is this site with all you clever people on solving our problems out for us.
    So can you help, in simple language please.
    Thank you. Julia :D

    Hi
    This is a simple generic error message that you will see always when programs or applications crash.
    Something went wrong but I cannot say whats wrong with your MS works.
    If you want you can check the event viewer for some errors but to be honest this will not help you a lot if you are not computer literate.
    I gogoled a little bit and some people reported about the same error message in connection with MS Word but as I said above; this is a generic error message.
    However, the people solve this problem only by new installation of MS Works.
    Im not sure if you have received an MS Works disk. If yes, remove/uninstall firstly the MS Works from the system, reboot the notebook and use the MS Works disk for new installation.

  • Satellite L300 & Windows Vista are not recognising Ipod

    hi, i'm hoping you can help!!! I have been directed here by Microsoft & Apple - below is my issue and also Microsofts response:
    i have an ipod nano 3rd gen, working off a near new laptop with windows vista. itunes is all set up, no issues with ipod at all but when i plug the ipod in, it only charges the ipod.
    computer does not recognise the ipod at all, in windows or itunes. there is no portable device driver in the Device Manager or anywhere at all.
    it is not the usb port as other usb's have been recognised. i've tried in all other usb ports as well. bottom line is that windows vista (and itunes) is not recognising the ipod at all.
    i've been in touch with apple, with no avail. i've googled solutions only to find hundreds of other posts with exactly the same problem but no helpful solution. windows vista has no portable device port - how does one get this on their pc???
    i've been at this for 4 days now and have uninstalled/reinstalled way too many times and i'm at wits end!! any advice (other than "have you tried another usb port" or "have you reset the ipod" or anything similar) would be much appreciated.
    once again, there is no portable/ipod device drive located on this computer. please, i'm really hoping someone can help =)
    *Microsofts response:*
    Hi,
    Step 1:Turn USB bus power back
    If laptop is configured to conserve power by turning off power on the USB (Universal Serial Bus), it might not recognize a connected iPod.
    To turn USB bus power back, you may follow the steps mentioned in the Apple link below
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1401
    You stated Windows vista has no portable device port Normally, all portable devices are connected via a USB port and they appear under Universal Serial Bus controllers in the Device Manager.
    Step 2:Reinstall USB controllers.
    First, please disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:
    1. Click "Start", type in Device Manager the Search bar and press "Enter". Click Continue if necessary.
    2. In Device Manager, double click to expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers", right click on the "Host Controller", click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
    3. Repeat the step 2 to uninstall all items under "Universal Serial Bus controllers".
    Then, restart your computer and windows will reinstall all USB controllers automatically.
    If the issue still persists,
    *Step 3:Download and install the latest chipset drivers from the laptop manufacturers website.*
    *So here I am with the issue still not resolved. *How do i Download and install the latest chipset drivers in order to have Toshiba Satellite L300 & Microsoft Vista recognise my ipod??*
    Many thanks in advance!

    >*So here I am with the issue still not resolved. How do i Download and install the latest chipset drivers >in order to have Toshiba Satellite L300 & Microsoft Vista recognise my ipod?
    Install an hardware diagnostic tool like Everest home Edit or similar.
    This tool would provide all hardware details about your notebook.
    It would list all devices and chipset name too.
    I think its Intel chipset so you could find the driver on the Intel page

  • Satellite L300-055 - VGA output doesn't work on external TV

    First I will give you my Laptop Specs: Toshiba Satellite L300-055 series laptop bought January 2009- 2GB RAM upgrade- Intel 4 Series Chipset Family
    Okay, I recently purchased a wire/connector like Link: [This One|http://www.vista24.biz/ebay/tpschc/v2b27214c.jpg] and when I plug it in to my To my vga port and the other end to the tv (via RCA) and follow the instructions by turning off my laptop then turn on the tv then turn back on the laptop- but NOTHING shows on the tv.
    The cable is working perfectly well. When I press fn+F5 it still only shows that no external monitor is plugged in. Do i need more drivers? Does my laptop not support tv-out. If not- is it possible to install a S-video port onto my laptop?
    Thanks

    Hello
    Have you tested both connections possibilities? I mean the S-Video port and the Chinch?
    If you have connected the laptop to the TV, shut down the notebook. If the notebook is powered off, switch on the TV and then notebook.
    Then you can normally switch between the monitors by pressing FN+F5.
    Furthermore its not possible to install an S-Video port on your laptop.
