Satellite L355 won't trun on at all even with power

Hi,
my Satellite L355 won't turn on at all. The lights indicating it's getting power from both the battery and the power cord are on, but the actual light indicating start-up won't go on--it's not in sleep mode, it's just off. I took the battery out and re-installed it several times and also took the hard drive out and re-installed.
Could it be the motherboard?
Any insight is appreciated--thanks!

Remove the battery and try to start notebook with AC power supply only.
If nothing happens I m afraid you need professional help by authorized Toshiba service provider.
Power supply electronic placed on the mainboard is probably defective.

    Im using an iMic to record but now it all of a sudden won't pick up anything played through it, yet if i turn on garageband it works. logic pro does acknowledge that the imic is plugged in but still won't pick up any sound, even with audio input : imic and audio output : external speakers. is this just logic pro not working properly?

    Same problem - happened after recent logic update.

    Well, after another call with Apple support and the engineers, no success.  After spending over 20 hours trying to debug this, I give up.  Apple was basically fishing for a solution with trial-and-error settings on the iphone.  Then they wanted me to plug in software to log my iphone connections to the router, etc, etc., etc., at which point I decided I no longer wanted to participate in their testing process and will simply return the router.
    25 hours of my life I'll never get back.
    Big bummer, and frustrating for all the obvious reasons.

  • Macbook Pro won't wake up even with power adapter connected

    If I use my Macbook to the point where the battery completely die, it will not power up again even with the power adapter connected. It takes about 15-20 minutes of charging before it will wake up again. It seems as though it can't draw power directly from the adaptor, but must wait until the battery is sufficiently charged, and draw power from the battery. I can't imagine this is a design decision. Any help?

    Part of this time may involve attempting to read a damaged sleep image file, bewlatbrutha.
    You should note, too that the batteries in these computers have a built in microprocessor of their own to try to prevent them from being damaged by discharging too deeply. If you discharge to the point where even the battery's own processor has to shut down you may never be able to resurrect your battery without outside help (and sometimes not even then). Almost all Lithium Polymer and Lithium Ion batteries (regardless of what they are fitted to) have this sort of protection. The battery has to have a certain minimum charge at all time to keep its own processor running.
    Even without reaching this point it is not good for Lithium batteries to be regularly discharged to the point where the computer has to sleep or shut down. You risk severely shortened battery life if you do this regularly.

    How long have you tried charging the device for?
    have you tried resetting the device by holding the home and sleep/wake buttons simultaneously for at least 10 seconds?
    Does anything whatsoever, appear on screen?

  • Itunes won't work anymore...even with reinstall

    Hello everybody, I hope you can help. I am working from a laptop which had itunes installed AND working with no problems for more than a year. All of a sudden itunes won't load. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, done a system restore...all to no avail. Can ANYBODY shed light on this? The message I get when I try to open itunes says "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" I am hoping some of you have had this problem and have a workable solution. Thanks!

    hiya!
    Rachyl's right about checking for malware. but you might also have some damage to your existing QuickTime caused by malware. (sometimes i've seen this message show up after people install Ace Mega Codec Packs too ... that does funny things to QT 7.0.3 and 7.0.4.)
    try to open your QuickTime. does it launch properly, or do you get an error message?
    if you get an error message, the first thing we'll try is a careful standalone QT 7.0.4 reinstall.
    download and save a copy of the QT 7.0.4 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.0.4 Standalone Installer
    if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
    (if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

  • Satellite P50t-A - Forced hibernation even with power connected

    Hello,
    I have a Satellite P50t-A where the battery appears to be failing. It is reading 0% and the charger is periodically charger is turning on and off. When it stops charging (about every 5 mins), the computer run for a period then enters forcefully enters hiberation. This hiberation occurs eveen when the power is connected. Why is it entering hiberation even when the power is connected? Why does battery status has precedence over a stable power?
    I have ordered a new battery and waiting for its arrival. In the interim, how to force the laptop to run on power (ignore the battery status)? If I open up the laptop and remove the battery, will it run with the power connected and the battery removed?
    Regards
    Graham

    Update. Disassmebled laptop and disconnected the battery. It now powers up now and the battery monitor reports "no battery detected". After running it for a period, the forced hiberation no longer occurs.

  • Firefox won't update on my system, even with firewall & antivirus switched off - help ?

    OS : Windows 7 - 64bit, with antivirus (Bitdefender).
    Downloaded update from you website (version 25.01), switched off Windows firewall, bitdefender firewall & antivirus. Run 25.01.exe - it partly updates (3/4 green bar), then bombs out.
    Firefox version currently running on my system is 22.
    If I try to update from your pull-down meny "Help" then "about Firefox", after downloading the update, get message that I need to restart Firefox to finalise update, but the process also gets blocked.
    Opening Firefox, I'm still on version 22
    Hope you can point out how I can overcome this ?
    Thank you for your support - love your product !!

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • Updated Firefox but add-ons download page won't see my Firefox browser even with it set as default.

    I have updated my Firefox browser to current. When attempting to download an add-on, I get the popup screen requesting for me to download Firefox browser. I have redownloaded it 4 times. Still no luck. Firefox is set as default. Add-ons still give me this message: "To install ... and thousands of other Firefox add-ons, get Firefox, a free and open web browser from Mozilla. To learn more about Firefox and how it can make your internet experience better, click the button below."
    == This happened ==

    Check your user-agent: Help > About Mozilla Firefox.
    Your original user-agent when you posted shows no browser name/version number:
    ''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 NET_mmhpset''

    See the difference? Yours does not show '''''Firefox/3.6.3''''' or the Build ID. I have seen that '''NET_mmhpset''' on other users who have posted here, but I do not know what it is.
    If you follow the instructions and it keeps changing back, then you have something installed that keeps changing the user-agent.
    Just to be sure:
    -You did right-click on the item <u>below</u> the filter area in about:config and choose Reset?
    -You did restart Firefox after making the change?
    <u>'''Safe Mode'''</u>
    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • HT1363 My ipod touch 32GB keeps clicking and won't turn on or charge even though power is getting to it.  The screen shows a sad face ipod.

    We have an ipod classic with wheel.  It keeps saying low battery even though I have had it charging for ages.  It also makes this clicking sound but refuses to do anything else.  I can't get any screen to show except a sad face ipod and the "low battery" screen.  I have tried to do the restart option but it makes no difference.  Help!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. If defective, within warranty and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost

  • AppleTV won't find my asleep computers,even with "wake for network access" turned on

    I've read about this a little on these forums, but haven't found the solution yet.
    My computer has "wake for network access" turned on. My AppleTV will not see my shared iTunes library, not until I wake up the computer by hand.
    The only other part of the equation is the FiOS router that I use, which is model number: MI424-WR.
    Has anyone come up with a guaranteed solution to this problem? Very annoying. Just bought the AppleTV, and think it's otherwise great. This flaw is just unacceptable. If I have to modify my router somehow, I'd be happy to hear about it... as I don't have any problem doing those kinds of things.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.
    -Dan.
    Running

    OK, I got an Airport Extreme, but still having issues.
    Why would I need to plug the AppleTV into an Ethernet cable? It doesn't have any sleep issues... it just can't wake up my Macs. I thought that would be possible.
    In any case, I can't connect my AppleTV to Ethernet... no ethernet near my television....

  • MBP won't turn on at all...

    My wife's Macbook Pro has been overheating recently. Additionally, the battery will charge until the power adapter is green and it says it has a full charge, but within minutes of unplugging it, the computer is dead. We figured she had a bad battery or whatever, but now — out of the blue — the computer won't turn on at all. The power adapter is orange, but it randomly flashes green really fast. The power light on the battery stays at one cell.
    We can't get it to turn on, regardless of what we do. Help?

    Alright, we reset the system management controller by unplugging, taking out the battery, holding power for 5 seconds and turning back on, and that got it back on. We checked the health of her battery on the Apple menu and it says her battery is in good condition, which was surprising. I'm glad to know about the SMC reset if for no other reason than future reference, but surely it can't be a good thing to have to do that every time we want to turn the computer on...
