Satellite L855 - Why can't updates be more specific?

Bios update for L855
The only detail I can find is:
*This Bios Update adds increased functionality to your system.*
A more detailed explanation of this 'functionality' would be useful in deciding whether to update the bios, or should one update as matter of course and assume it wouldn't be offered if not useful?
Reading other posts suggest it's something to do with Bluetooth, which although installed, I have never used.

You are right but as far as I know only on Toshiba US page you can find detailed BIOS update with all necessary information.
Anyway if there is no problem with your notebook BIOS update is not necessary. In worst case fan activity can be changed and you can be faced with more cooling fan activity that can be very annoying.
Some people have reported about such issues in the past. So if there is no reason and you are happy with your notebook dont change anything.

  • Why can't I minimize more than 2 notepads in FF? I used to be able to minimize as many notepads as I wanted. FF must have done an update & now I can't do that anymore. Is there a setting I can change that will enable me to do that?

    Why can't I minimize more than 2 notepads in FF? I used to be able to minimize as many notepads as I wanted. When I do research on a topic I keep many notepads open until I am finished. FF must have done an update & now I can't do that anymore. Is there a setting I can change that will enable me to do that again?
    Also at that time, the length of sentence I am typing changed.
    It doesn't seem to have any limit to how far it can extend to the right.
    Please help. I am not very techy & don't understand Computerese.
    Please explain in everyday English.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Prabhuti,
    Thank you so much for all your suggestions & helpful links to get help. I am not very computer literate. I have taken many classes over the years I've had a computer but I am still only a beginner.
    I want to tell you that I found a solution to my problem. I finally realized that maybe FF was not the problem but Wind. 7 on my new comp. I went on the 7 Forums & found another person who had the same problem & the answer was simple all I had to do was to right click on the Notepad icon & it would bring up a new Notepad & I could open & minimize as many as I want. I had moved the Notepad icon to my taskbar from the Start menu when I got my new computer.
    I have one more question for you. The notepad 2 program was mentioned there along with several others. I think it was about that prog. that someone said that it could open many notepads & when you closed the comp. the notepads would not disappear. Do you know if it was that program? Also is it possible to use that program the same way as I used the original Notepad? There are so many technical options on that program that I didn't understand. All I want to do is open the Notepad & copy & paste my notes in it & minimize them. Not losing them if I shut down the comp. would be real benefit to me. I believe that is the same prog. you recommended to me. Since you seem to understand tech things I thought maybe you could tell me if that is possible?
    Thank you so much for all your help.

  • Why can't I download more than 50mb in iPhone ??

    Why can't I download more than 50mb in iPhone ??

    Deggie is correct. The carriers originally wanted it so people wouldnt be downloading large files on their networks and causing congestion. Also look at is from a carrier perspective for protecting costumers. People could also complain if they went over their data plan that they should have received a warning about downloading large files. Rather than argue about updating/downloading apps, they have the warning now.
    I am hoping down the road that carriers converse with Apple to lift those, we will see what happens. Rodgers has more influence on lifting that limit that normal costumers would.

  • Why can't TextEdit open more than 5 links at a time in Yosemite?

    Why can't TextEdit open more than 5 links at a time in Yosemite? In the previous OS, I could highlight many links at a time, right click and then select "Open URL" to open the links in Safari. Now, if I select more than five links at a time (and sometimes with five links) it will only open the first five and TextEdit pops up with the alert, "The 'Open URL' service could not be used."
    I'm running 10.10.1 on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009), 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, 500 GB HD.
    TextEdit is Version 1.10 (319).

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Why can I no longer delete specific messages on my iphone5?  There now is only an option to Delete All i.e. the entire conversation.

    Why can I no longer delete specific messages on my iphone5?  There now is only an option to Delete All i.e. the entire conversation.  Can this be resolved.

    I don't know what to tell you if you really are running iOS 5 but on iOS 8 when you hold down a message you get the options Copy and More. When you click more you can select a specific message and click the trash can to delete just that message. Check and see if you have that as an option.

  • Satellite L855-124 can't change display brightness after Win 8 upgrade

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite L855-124 PSKACE laptop.
    After upgrading to Windows 8, I can't change the brightness backlight of the laptop screen.
    There seems to be an error in the graphical driver.
    When I install the Windows 7 graphical AMD driver under compatibility, it works again but bugs out on other areas.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Even after using the upgrade assistant provided by Toshiba it does nothing.
    Also the drivers for my laptop are poorly updated. Dating back to 2012.
    I have also called tech support, they told me that a driver team will be fixing the issue.
    That was 2 months ago.
    Is there anyone from Toshiba that can help me with this please?
    Thank you.

  • Why can't I have more than one iTunes linked t my iPod

    I have Macs for years, all sorts, I currently actively use, iMac g417,iMac g5 20, iMac intel 24. G4 Mac Mini,Intel Mac Mini, G5 tower, G4 Tower, powerbook g4 and mac book. Yes I know but I work from home with Mac all day...
    I have thousands of songs, all legal, I'm old and have huge CD collection.. I have them spread around the Macs.
    I want to add different playlist from different iTunes to my iPod, just want to drag and drop. Don't care about iTunes store, my CD, my Macs, My iTunes, My Ipod, Not pirating any thing here, WHY CAN I NOT SIMLY DO THIS. I'm forced to go with another player that does not have these retrictions

    Hi Dean, I have no problems using my iPod simultaneously with my notebook and desktop (iBook G4 & iMac G5). All you need to do is un-check the "sync" iPod with iTunes box, or check manually manage music... whatever it is. As long as you are manually managing everything, it should not give you any problems. You can drag and drop to your heart's content! A few notes: MP3 CD's... are amazing, because you don't actually have to import them to your computer, you can just drag and drop the tunes onto your iPod. It might be to your advantage to back up your music libraries on MP3 CD's, the initial process is slightly tedious, but well worth it because you can always create CD's in the future if necessary and free up GB of your hard drive (I'm sure you already thought of this though, you sound pretty savvy.) The ONLY problem I do encounter is sometimes the iTunes on my G5 will just close on me. The trick is to only MANAGE the music from the initial iTunes regardless of where you ADD music from... if that makes sense. Alright, good luck and if you have any questions or anything needs clarifying, just drop me a line (or reply or whatever) Good Luck!
    P.S. I am using the newest iPod Video 80GB, I don't know if that will make a difference or not, but both my sisters have different Nano's and they work the same way that mine does.
