Satellite L500 PSLS0E - FN Menu doesn't work

Now I have wanted to connect my Laptop to my TV again (I have done this before by using an HDMI cable and FN+F5, however not anymore.) but now for the first time I have noticed that the FN key does NOT bring up the menu it used to bring up when I pressed it before and I have no idea what is causing this.
I have tried using google ect to find a solution and the thing I noticed is that when I go in Start>All Programs>TOSHIBA>Utilities other people seem to have "Flash Cards" and "Flash Cards - Setting" now all I have is Flash Card Help, Restart Flash Cards and Settings for Flash Cards. I am just saying this to see if this has to do with the problem anyways moving on.
I would like to know how to fix this problem I already tried to install the Value Added Package but it did not help at all and this problem was probably caused due to me fiddling around with my laptop. Thanks in advance.
PS:
Toshiba Satellite L500 (Part Number thingy: PSLS0E) Windows 7 64 bit.

Hi
Beside the installation of VAP you need to install Flash Card Support Utility too!
Firstly uninstall VAP then clean the system using CCleaner
Then restart again and install VAP followed by Flash Card Support Utility

  • Satellite L500-20X - WLAN switch doesn't work after Windows 8 Upgrade

    Hello,
    I have updatet my Toshiba Satellite L500-20X to Windows 8.
    Unfortunately, since this update my WLAN Switch no longer works. All function keys work to F7, only F8 (WLAN switch) and F9 (touchpad) no longer work.
    What can I do?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards
    Klaus

    Satellite L500 is not Win 8 upgrade supported so I think the problem is a missing driver or software
    As far as I know in order to use the FN buttons the Value Added Package for Win 8 needs to be installed.
    Check other driver area for Toshiba notebook series supporting the Win 8.
    Maybe you could use the VAP released for other series.

  • Safari menu doesn't work

    I have a strange Safari bug... After about a day of using Safari 2.0.4 (the latest stable version), the main Safari menu stops working. I can still pull it down, but selecting anything in it does nothing.
    For example, I can pull down the Safari menu and select Quit, but the app doesn't quit. I can pull it down and select Preferences, but no preferences appear.
    On the other hand, I can type Cmd-Q and Safari will quit. I can type Cmd-K to toggle pop-up blocking. But selecting any item in the menu doesn't work.
    All the other menus work fine. Safari itself also works fine. The application menu in other apps work perfectly.
    The problem crops up after about a day or so. If I quit Safari and re-launch, the menu will behave correctly for a while. Then, sometime later, it will stop working. Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
    I have tried trashing Safari's preferences. A Mac Genius suggested installing Safari 3 Beta, then un-installing to restore Safari 2, but that didn't help.
    Any ideas?
    PowerMac G5 Dual   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    This might be worth a try:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
    And you never to question it? I have never seen that behaviour.

  • DVD menu doesn't work right in DVD players

    I've created a DVD in Encore for Mac.  It plays fine on my Mac and on Windows.  However, once it is inserted into a stand alone DVD player, the menu doesn't work right.  I have four text menus.  In the DVD player, none of those are navigable.  Arrowing up or down doesn't work.  You have to click a number on the remote keypad and then play. This also causes "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" and so on to display.  Any ideas how I can get the arrow keys to work?  I don't have a stand alone dvd player to test against.
    Also, in Windows, I have someone that wants to duplicate the dvd.  They're using Movie Maker.  It gives an error that the codec is not installed but doesn't say which codec.  Any ideas on that?

    The only time I recall similar problems was the issue Jeff was asking about above (Mac, Encore CS3, certain OS).  If you don't solve this otherwise, I'd experiment with that.
    You appear to have confirmed that there is button navigation.  (In button routing, each button points to another.)  Where does it break down?
    On the Mac/PC, are you using the mouse?  In the computer DVD software player, there should be a "remote" that you can use to see if the button navigation is working.  Does the computer "remote" option work?  If so, it makes it not working in a standalone player even odder.
    If not, then look at whether the project works before you burn to disk.  Does the "remote" work in the Encore preview?  Or build to a folder, then play the DVD from the folder.  (I don't know how on Mac; on PC, I find the first .ifo in the VIDEO_TS folder, and play that.)

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />

  • Satellite A200-1ZF - FN keys doesn't work in WIn7

    Hello all.
    Did someone had the same problem regarding FN keys on A200-1ZF?
    I've reinstalled the OS, Windows 7, and after installing all drivers, i cannot modify the light of display by pressing FN+F6 or F7.
    Also, doesn't work any option with combination of FN key.
    Does someone know how to resolve that?
    Thank you.

    Hi
    Im not A200 owner but Ive got A210.
    I could get the Fn buttons working under Win 7.
    Firstly in stalled the VAP for Win 7 and then I installed Toshiba Flash Card support utility for Win 7.
    I downloaded both tools from the Toshiba European driver page. I have chosen the tools released for Satellite L500.
    You should try this too.

  • My Spry Horizontal Menu doesn't work

    I created my Spry horizontal menu and tried it in preview browser and it doesn't work.  I published the site to see if it check didn't work in preview mode and it REALLY doesn't work.
    I'm sure it's something simple that I am just missing, but what I don't know.  I have attached the css style sheet as I did change the spacing and colors.
    Is it something I could be missing on the individual pages and linking there?
    I apologize for being dumb, but I am a newbie to this and the tutorials I took don't go into detail about linking other than to explain the linking from your index page.  Is there more linking that I need to do?
    Here is the menu and I did place it in it's own div tag.
    <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
        <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>

    I thought that was all there was to it.
    What am I missing.  I can link to one page, but have to click on the back button to view any other page and keep repeating that process to view all the pages.
    Boy do I feel stupid.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Needless to say I republished my friends old site because of functionality.  But I'd really like to get this one working for him.
    Thanks in advance.
    Oops

    NEVER MIND.  What an idiot.  I never copied the linked menu bar into the other pages.  My stupid.
    Thanks and sorry to waste your time.

    Please give me solution on it.

    Best way to test functionality is to install original recovery image again and test hardware with factory settings.
    Please use recovery DVD discs, if you have created them, or use HDD recovery option - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

  • Satellite L500: WLan drops out and doesnt work most of the time

    hi everyone, i have a toshiba satellite L500 running windows 7. have been using iprimus internet, wirelessly, no problems for a few weeks,before that, was using it via ethernet cable as i didnth ave a wireless modem. my laptop was off charge the other night and went flat, next morning when i woke up and turned it on, it wouldnrt connect to the internet.. after hours and hours of phone calls to iprimus, and numerous winsock resets, ethernet cable testing, and modem resetting, they tell me that the problem is within my laptop...
    So i rang toshiba.. and they got me to go into device managers, and then network adapters, and disable, actually uninstall the wireless drivers, then reinstall.. and it worked.. finally... (forgot to add with all the iprimus confusion someone had reset my passowrd and i had to configure that to the laptop..
    so anyway, after all these calls, i did a complete restore of the laptop, and wiped everything and reinstalled it all, and therefore reinstalled the modem. this time in modem setup it was telling me the wireless network adapter was unplugged, and would only let me set it up via ethernet..
    now earlier today i did have the internet.. but it dropped out randomly.. webpages will go slow, sometimes it will reconnect, other times it wont. now i thougbht i might try and uninstall and reinstall the modem again,s ame error, and this time, cant get on wirelessly at all.
    ive googled to see if others ahve had this problem.. and seeing what other people wrote, i went into my battery settings, and checked the WLAN didnt go into sleep mode etc, and ive also checked everythings enabled. ive no idea what to do,, neither iprimus or Toshiba will give me any anwers, both companies are just blaming each other lol
    so i
    it does appear to be my laptop, as all lights are on modem.. and iprimus keep telling me its not registering with them ( the disconnections) so it must be my wireless. though everytime my laptop dropped out of internet, so would my bfs iphone we were testing, and so did my other laptop which is partially stuffed but could normally still connect to the net.. so thats telling me its a modem problem.. ive no idea what to do.. and cant keep this via ethernet on the bench in this new hosue ive moved into,as with 2 kids under 3, thats just asking for trouble..
    anyone have any suggestion??
    thanks in advance

    wel after many more phone calls to iprimus, i finally found a helpful indian, who ran me through the modem setup AGAIN like everyone else has, this time in its security settings, he got me to change the wireless signal channel from 2 to 9, said that would improve the signal, every other person when explaining the issues i was having, always told me to set it on 2.. so this has improved it dramatically in the day, but at night, particulary around 830pm, it drops out over and over and over...
    would this just be a faulty modem, and perhaps buying oen from a harvery norman etc would be better?? or could it just be iprimus as a whole with there wireless coverage? im not in an iprimus area, theyve borrowed the lines of telstra or something.. so im on a crappier plan in this new house, and dont have adsl2 just 1500 speed. would this have anythign to do with the poor reception, or perhaps is there something in my house interfearing, or in my neighbors house? there is a satelite here, but no actual foxtel connected, looks as though it has been before. there is also an alarm here, not in use though.. ive not even seen if it turns on..

  • Flash menu doesn't work after opening an external link.

    Hi,
    I have this problem - I made a simple website with a flash menu, that opens internal links in an iframe. However, I have a few other (not included in the menu) external links, which open in the same iframe. And after I click on one of them and it loads in the iframe, the buttons on the menu stop working. I'm beginning to think it has something to do with the internet explorer, since it works on some computers. But I'm not sure... not very good at this.
    I've been searching for an answer here and there, but still haven't found anything. Please, help.
    Thank you!

    Here it is: http://kiss4eto.is.com/. Click on the Me button, for example. It should work. Then click on the "Addicted to Facebook" link on the right and after that try the Me button again. It doesn't work any more. At least on my computer.
    Thanks, again.

  • Smartshape menu doesn't work in html5

    Hi,
    I have made a kind of menu with smartshapes that are set "rest of project" and " placed on top". There are an advanced action on each that show/hide captions, also set for the rest of project, on top.

  • DVD menu doesn't work on the finished DVD

    I am having problems with a DVD menu.
    Several days ago I burned a DVD from the same project that I tried to export to DVD today, and I did not have any problems with DVD menu, but today, when I start to burn DVD it shows me a warning sign that tells a few DVD markers are closer than they are required, and after burning DVD the DVD menu doesn't show or work on the finished DVD. What am I doing wrong?

  • Burned DVD - menu doesn't work

    I'm fairly new to all this and have created a slideshow in iMovie and then created a DVD in iDVD. In iDVD it all works (there is just one menu item). But when I burn to disc image (or even burn a dvd) the menu link doesn't work - it just starts over the main screen. However, with the mac dvd player if I go to the menu, I can access it through "title".
    HELP!
    Many thanks!
    bchina

    Try closing iDVD and trashing the file called com.Apple.iDVD.plist located in User/Library/Preferences. iDVD will create a new file upon relaunch. Then repair permissions using the Utilities/Disk Utility app on your Mac. After deleting coded assets, try burning again.
    When you burn again, I would burn from a disk image rather then directly from your iDVD project. Open your iDVD project, Delete Coded Assets from the Advanced menu, and save your project as a Disk Image on your hard drive. The assets will re-encode, taking a little time. Play the disk image with your computer's DVD Player application and see if the menu button works on the disk image. If it does, your initial problem might be caused by bad media. Burn a new DVD disk from the disk image at 4x speed, using Verbatim or Maxell DVD-R disks. See if that works.
    Hope this helps.
