Satellite P10-802: What was new in sound driver update
There are new sound drivers for Satellite P10-802 which claim to add sound features such as 3d enhancement and software synthesizer and i would like to know what these actually do and if it's effective enough to bother updating.
For example the sound system is made by toshiba bass enhancement but when i put in my very costly bass earphones,
My cd player [produces atleast 5x more bass and clarity.
So i would like to know what the driver has to offer as to what the standard driver can do.
The driver description is as follows:-
A broad range of audio controls are possible by using this sound driver, including: Software Synthesizer, Microphone volume, 3D enhancement and Power management
thanksSounds much information to me already.
Updating is mostly a good thing and they remain the same standard sound driver, just with some new features.
Ok, I'll take a lokk at it.
3d enhancement: Seems like when using a complete surround sound speaker set was improved, maybe it added more settings like distance between front and rear or delay from rear speakers as you would have like using an expensive stereo receiver.
Software synthesizer is a little tweaking of how music for example sounds. IF you wish more bass or treble than you could adjust ist with this program.
I don't know if you need those features, so you have to decide on your own. -
Hello there,
Since I've installed Snow Leopard ( one year ago...) my mac is slower than ever at the launch ( more than 40 seconds).
I did my best to clean it with Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner, OnyX. ( It fixed my problem of the multicolored circle which was boring me on iPhoto or When i was on Internet...).
I've checked and fixed the disc, it looks ok.
I've delted the soft which started at the launch
I'd like to upgrade my mac to Lion... but first I need to find what makes it slow.
What's wrong please?
Looking forward hearing from helpersCheck this out... Closing down is very fast... here are the errors for the launch
How can i do? Thanks -
Hi, all,
My macbook is running slower than ever. I have done all the updates, emptied my downloads, and installed MS Office 11. I am not sure if I can do anything else?!arupp,
I suggest trying to replace the RAM and the memory storage. This is hard and could potentially ruin your MacBook if you do this the wrong way. Another easier way is to erase thing that you don't need. -
iphone 4s with ios 8.1.1, imessage gets slower than ever, sometimes even deliver after 10 min, was not like this with the previous ios, how can I improve imessage sending time?
Hi there skmonirul,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
From what I gather, iMessages are taking longer than expected to send on your iPhone 4s. If you aren’t seeing issues with other apps, try restarting your iPhone as shown here:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If the issue persists, try restoring your iPhone as shown in the article below.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
So long,

MBP slower than ever...
I just upgraded to Snow Leopard, then swapped a 250gb 7200rpm hard drive for a 500gb 5400rpm hard drive. Now my computer is slower than ever. It still works, but at a much slower pace. Often the screen will freeze for up to 10 seconds before becoming operable again. This happens when doing the simplest of tasks. I am only running about 5 programs at a time anyways. This never happened on the old system. And I don't think its a matter of the slower hard drive. I was running an old MB with a smaller HD, same RPM, same RAM, and there was no problem. What gives? What should I do?
OK. Let's proceed on the premise it's not the drive. Although, I swapped an 80GB 5400 drive on an iMac G4 for a 160 GB@7200 and noticed quite a difference.
How did you install, clean install with Migration Assistant, clone, Time Machine?
There are some simple troubleshooting steps you can take.
Create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test your apps in this new account, if they are faster the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
If the issue is limited to your user account try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions faster that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting. Also, delete Users/yourname/Library/Caches. (on the first launch after this some apps will be slow until cache catches up.)
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this with the The 10.6.2 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
Let us know.

Notice iPad1 Slower than ever with iOS 5?
Boy, am I ever glad I updated my iPad to IOS 5. Not only did Apple lose my back during the update (causing me to resore the whole "system"), but now it runs even slower than the last iOS 4 update.
Hasn't anyone else noticed this?
When I updated to iOS 5, I said to myself, "If iOS 5 runs even slower or causes any other problems, I'm going to throw this thing out the window. Well, not going to do this, but I'm REALLY going to recommend AGAINST the iPAD to anyone interested
Can't touch thisLaraCroft_NYC wrote:
Nothing is wrong. System was restored from scratch for the update. It's an iPad 1 and Apple designs new operating systems for newer, faster hardware. Older hardware ALWAYS runs slower with newer operating systems, including, and especially MACS. This is 44 years of system internals design experience with MS in Comp Sci+BS Comp Engineering talking, 25 years of Mac experience since 1986, and iOS experience since it first came out.
What is your "experience"? Oh, yes...You mentioned it: Like "most" iOS users.
Strangely, i have worked in Software Engineering and Operating Systems development since 1964. That gives me, oh, 48 years or so of relevant experience. I also have an MS in Computer Science.
When I tell you that i am using my iPad 1 with iOS 5 and am NOT experiencing a slowdown do you not believe me? Is it necessary to become insulting and condescending? Is it necessary to close your mind to other data input?
I do believe you when you say that you are having problems. Since these problems are not present for every iPad 1 user there has to be something unique about your iPad 1 or the environment/settings that it is functioning in.
To find out what is the problem I suggest, as I said before, that you contact Apple, demonstrate your problem and get assistance.
To reach the conclusion, on the basis of one example, that Apple has crippled the iPad 1 with iOS 5 is illogical. -

Satellite P10-504 - Slow system start
Hi again, help if you can.
My laptop takes good 8 minutes to get to the point when I can use it. Yet it only takes just over a minute to bring up all my desk top icons. The problem is the blue bar at the bottom, that's what takes the time to load, there's only 4 to load when desktop opens the only one is present and that is the speaker icon [vol control] the other three wireless icon, and the local area icon ,and windows one care icon,takes an age to come on.
I went into start up items and not knowing what to stop. I tick them all to not start but still it takes about eight minutes. Sometimes longer to fully operate, whilst I am waiting the blue disk light is full on. Any ideas appreciated.
I do use uni blue ,reg cleaner along with one care, neither at start up.
Thanks Colin
XP Professinoal SP3 and Satellite P10 504Hey sido,
I also dont know why it takes 8 minutes until you can use your notebook but normally such problems are caused due the installed software and many programs start up folder.
You should remove all programs from start up folder that you dont need and check also msconfig (Start > run > msconfig). There you can also disable some start up programs that you dont need.
Furthermore uninstall all applications that you dont need and clean the registry using CCleaner.
If nothing does work you should reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disk. After recovery installation it should take 1 or 2 minutes until you can use notebook.

PS: Disk defragmentation is also useful ;) -
Stabilization Slower Than Ever. :( New 12 Core Mac Pro VS 2006 PowerPC Dual
I have concluded testing that the WarpStabilizer in AE using a 12 Core 2.9 GHZ Mac Pro is SLOWER than a dual 2.7 GHZ PowerPc G5 running iMovie and GeeThree's Stabilizer plugin.
There is no excuse for such shotty performance.Rick:
Stabilization needs to occur in edited clips. If you don't the stabization data is excessive for centering the frame. The edit comes from within PP. Once a PP project is ready for the Dynamic Link(s) .. a 30 min clip could have 100s of clips that need to be sent to AE via DL.
To do this with one giant 30 min. clip sends the position tracking data all over the place .. and ruins many frames that would otherwise be fine if the clips where divided appropriatley ..
Try it .. or anyone whom wrote the plug in should try it.
It is a very simple process that I expected to do within a very basic function.
The was PP and AE handles it is ______.
I would love to make a demo video about what is happening. :O -

My hard drive is slower than ever - Late 2009 iMac - help requested
I was testing my hard disk via BlackMagic Disk Speed Test across the network (for copying files from my MacBook Pro to my Late 2009 iMac, and I was shocked at the write speeds.
Because of this, I went to the machine and ran local tests, both BlackMagic and xbench. Suddenly I was horrified when I saw the performance for write operations well below the speeds I'd observed in the past. Luckily, I had saved xbench files so I had the ability to compare old disk tests. In the summer of 2013 running 10.7.3, this same hard drive had an uncached write speed of 116 MB/s [4K blocks] and 94 MB/s [256K block]. Now, the drive running under 10.9.5 is performing very inconsistently, with top speeds around 80 MB/s and averages more like 50 MB/s.
I cannot think of any significant changes to tools or background applications installed since that time, so I ran EtreCheck -- the results of which I'm pasting below.
Any guidance as to what I should test would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading! --
Chris
Problem description:
Hard disk slowed to less than half the speed from Mac OS X 10.7.3, as I am now on 10.9.5 and the speed appears to be roughly 40M/s uncached write down from 119M/s previously. I am using the same drive, memory and most of the same applications.
The only large difference is the OS.

I did a horrible job of explaining *when* the slow performance became noticeable. These changes did not happen when I installed Mavericks, I just don't have benchmarks *saved* to give the support community exact numbers after Mavericks was installed. The performance at that time was roughly the same, although you might recall that the old app xbench no longer worked to give a comparison because one or more of the sections of testing wouldn't work (memory, if I recall correctly, although I will run it when I am back at that machine and post here).
In any case, the only significant change since the slow down is the OS, but the decline in performance was noticed in the fall. It wasn't until I tried this network copying task the other day that I decided to run BlackMagic's test. This is when I realized I should go check the performance on the local machine. Having already run through many of the generic recommendations, I thought perhaps someone here who has a much deeper understanding of the storage abstraction layer would have guidance on specific preference files that might be corrupted since I can't find any tool to check them. I've noticed that many of the people seeking guidance are not very technical and the advice is similarly geared. I'm sure I could spend a little time this week finding comparable tools in Mac OS X to those I'd have used in the past on Windows (Sysinternals) to do real time debugging and process analysis.
So far I have found that there were a few processes running high, like the dashboard client, so I moved (deleted) the preference file and rebooted. This resulted in the gain to that 60 MB/sec write performance (up from the low of 40 MB/sec), but there must be other areas yet unexplored.
At this point I'm considering a fresh install, but I'd been told in previous exchanges when I first started developing on Macs (2008) that fresh installs were rarely the best solution on Macs.
Can you give me guidance on that? You probably know that in the Windows world it is often (depending on how you define often) necessary to format and reinstall the OS. As a long time systems architect developing everything from device drivers to enterprise solutions, I see that as a result of the attempts to maintain legacy support for so long and the convoluted resulting APIs and failure to make real fixes for fear of causing problems with older hardware and software. Would you suggest erasing and reinstalling?
@BobHarris - I know that's a problem and it's why I monitor the drive more than I do drives in other systems. My drive didn't qualify for replacement, but I think Apple doesn't always do a good job with the recalls. I was very fortunate that my old white MacBook qualified for quite a few replacement parts so it's a great browsing-the-web computer now, but at its age, it isn't capable of running most of the apps I need. I have considered selling the 27" iMac but when I last had it in for warranty repair, the DisplayPort was misaligned to the case, so I'm going to have to pay labor just to get it popped open to fix that (since the service center says they didn't cause the DP problem - although they must have!)... In any case, if I have to spend that money, I might as well use the drive doubler kit since I never use the optical drive in that box anyway. Mostly I love having it because of the gorgeous big screen. That being said, costs of repairs are silly when I can just buy another used MBP circa 2012 and get twice the processing power then use a CalDigit dock like the one I use with my existing MBP to use an inexpensive HD TV for the monitor.
Thanks for the replies folks - the input is awesome!

8 Core Harpertown with Nirvana of RAM - Logic 8 is Slower than Ever....
Hi There,
So I have completed installing Logic 8.0.1, and I ran all the updates. Repaired permissions etc. Have about 4 Audio Units installed and use Logic for doing midi only. All audio drivers open are Core Audio.
Now I used to run the same setup on a G5 2.3 GHZ and it was OK. Now I am on the fasted CPU that apple makes and Logic has never been running slower. resizing a window is amazingly slow and NON real-time. And I am on a huge NVIDIA graphic card with 512 MB RAM. When I double click a midi region the piano roll slowly works it way up and I am filled with awe that the State-of-the-Art has become so slow. Logic 7 on a PPC was blazingly fast when drawing a comparison. Is Logic getting slower with each upgrade. I had a region that was 16 bar long. I open it in the piano roll and was zoomed in so I could see 1 bar ahead. I wanted to copy a note from the beginning to the end of the 16 bar region - so I option dragged it to the right. The speed at which Logic moved the contents of the window to the right was comparable to a slow fast forward. This I used to do in a blaze on L7.
Screen sets are taking so much longer to load than L8 Leopard and L7 Leopard. Seriously - when PT 741 is maxed out with TDM's and RTAS playing heavy edits with 64 tracks the screen response is pretty darn slow - but it is still more than twice as fast as Logic playing with NO audio instruments merely addressing 8 external midi machines.
Can someone shed some light on this...
To make sure that my setup wasn'T screwed - I re-installed OS X on a separate partition and re-installed Logic as well... Thus I had two identical setup. Both were similar slow. So I went to my dealership and tested the screen response of their Harpertown - 3.0GHZ 8 GB RAM - and guess what the screen response was exactly as slow.
Now, I WOULD consider myself a fast editor - but I aint so fast that I could make PT even hick up. Are the users of L8 adapting to the slowness and have they forgotten how lightning fast Logic used be???
I may be able to instantiate more plugs with this setup but L8 definitely ran a whole lot faster on the G5. So much for Logic 8 being optimized for Leopard and Intel.So here's an update...
I tried once again reinstalling only booting without ANY audio drivers loaded. Still the same thing.
So I thought to myself: Hey, lets call the colleges in the other studios where I know they use Logic. I called 5 studios distributed over Germany (This is where Logic has it's broadest clientele. 3 of them said - "Since Logic 8 came out we had to switch to Protools. Another said" I had to switch to Digital Performer as Logic was just too slow and gave me NO performance compared to prior versions. The last one was still on Logic and as I asked him about the screen slowness he started breathing heavily. And said "This is killing me, Logic used to be so fast and now with every new version it gets slower and worse. I am tired of waiting and have already gotten quotes on a PT HD|2 system."
So it seems that I am NOT the only one thinking this is annoying. I called 5 studios who smiled at me 3 years ago when I left Logic as main DAW for PT... Today, they have or are about to switch to different DAWs.
That sums it up pretty much for - I am heading back to L7 - until I have converted my about 250 songs that I still need to produce. Then Logic will probably be removed from my CPU - unless of course they pull up some magic stunts from DAW bag of trix
Thanks to you who took the time to reply -
Satellite P10-802 - CD audio while laptop is off?
Hello,
apparently, my laptop can play cd audio while it is switched off using the dedicated audio buttons next to the cd drive.
It says so in the product tour and also the manual.
I just don't know how to do it. do i simply put in a disc before switching it off (otherwise i can't eject the disc)?
Then do i press play?Hello
I think you should read attentive read the user manual because there you can find all informations about this in chapter 4-8:
Whether your computer is turned on or off, the CD/DVD/Audio control buttons are locked by default. To unlock them, press the CD/Digital mode button for more than 3 seconds. Press the CD/Digital button again for over 3 seconds to lock them again. When the CD/Digital mode is unlocked, press the CD/Digital mode briefly to switch between CD and Digital mode. The system status indicator LEDs will show you which mode you are in.
For more informations check the user manual and if you dont have it you can download it on the Toshiba website.

Graphics card upgrade question on the Satellite P10-802
Hoping someone out there may be able to offer some advice.
I'm now finding I probably need to upgrade this system a little. Adding memory looks straight forward but was also interested in upgrading the graphics card. Does anyone know if this is possible? Currently it has the ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9700 with 64MB of memory. If it is not possible to change the card is it possible instead to increase the memory on the card itself?
Thanks in advance if anyone has any advice to offer!
Cheers
Message was edited by: liamflanNo, something like that is definitely not possible.
Please do not mix the notebook technology with the simple desktop PC.
You cannot upgrade the notebook graphic card and you cannot increase this graphic card memory.
Nothing to do :(
