Satellite P105-S6197 - after WXP installation DVDs are not readable

Hello all (sorry for my English) :)
I purchase Satellite P105-S6197 with Vista Home Premium (RUS). I have immediately formatted HDD and installed WIN XP PRO without any problem. All drivers installed correct and in Device Manager haven't unknown devices.
But after this operation my Win XP does not read DVDs, CDs - no problem. I try boot from any bootable DVD - no success, disk not read. In BIOS I see information about DVD drive normally.
What I can do for diagnostic my problem?
Maybe some MS updates, BIOS update....
Please help me :)

Hi
I wonder from what Toshiba driver site did you download the drivers?
Mhhh this is s a Toshiba US model designed and delivered in US.
So you should use the Tosh US site for driver download.
Checking the US driver page I didnt find any XP drivers and this is a reason why I asked.
Anyway I would recommend updating the Win XP OS to the latest state. This means you should visit the Microsoft site and should run a update test!

Please note that sometimes several booting procedures are needed to install all patches

Satellite P20 after burning the DVD is not readable

Hi,
All the times, after trying to write DVDs it ends with unreadable DVD. You can see that there is a burning on it, but the content can is not readable and you can not burn it anymore. I tried it with different products in R-.
What can I do? Which different drive can I buy?

On this forum I have found few interesting topics about ODD replacement on Satellite P20. It seems to be that TEAC DV-W22E drive is perfect for ODD replacement. It is DVD-RAM ODD and you will have DVD burner with RAM function.
Google a little bit around and pick up info about price.

If you are trying to launch iWeb '09 with a domain file made in iWeb '08, drag the domain file out of Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb into a new folder and then try launching.

Hi. I just got the iPhone 6, plugged into itunes and made the mistake of putting an OLD back up on my new phone resulting in losing all contacts after 2013. They are not saved on the cloud. Is there any way to go back to before I screwed up?

If you have performed a sync with the device since you restored this old backup, then don't bother looking for another backup. iTunes writes over the last backup each time you sync. If you were handling contacts in iCloud, you would find them by logging into iCloud. Or you can check settings and iCloud and see if the button it on for Contacts. Otherwise it might have been on the computer, if you had a program that syncs with iTunes and handles contacts, depending on the computer system you use. If Windows, it would be Windows Contacts or Outlook. If a Mac, there is a Mac Address book as well.

hi Jain,
you may need to check the transfer structures,
right click infosource and 'change', click 'comm.structure'/expand,
click 'transfer', move the 0BASE_UOM from left to right side,
or if you wont use the comm structure anymore, you can right click infosource and 'delete comm structure'
hope this helps.

The UI text of the menus are not readable so it's impossible to work with

Hi
I install the photoshop cs6(x64) and i have the following problem. The UI text of the menus(not the toolbar drop down menus) are not readable so it's impossible to work with. After that, I completely uninstall the cs6 photoshop and i tried to install photoshop cc(x64)-with clean install- but the problem still exist.
Also I tried to change display settings from 1600x900(recommened)but the problem still exist...I send you some photos of the menus to understand better what I mean.Any suggestions? Specifications
Toshiba Satellite L775-15NWin 7 Home Premium SP1 x64
Intel Core i5-2430M 2.4GHz
Ram 8gb
Monitor 17"
Geforce GT 525M

Right click on your desktop and choose Properties, then choose Window Color, Advanced Appearance settings...
Click on the Message Text to look at your Message Box item settings. Is the font Segoe UI, 9 point, color black?
Also, in Photoshop, check your Edit - Preferences - Interface menu. What is your UI Font Size there? Try changing it to something else, closing and restarting Photoshop, then changing it back.
Lastly, you could try resetting your Photoshop preferences to defaults. Press and hold Command - Shift - Option simultaneously (or Control - Shift - Alt if on a PC) immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set. If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.

IPhoto Titles of Events are not readable

Hi,
i´ve an issue with the interaction of background colour and text colour. In the event view background is dark grey and text is black. Therefore you can hardly read the text under events. When i change background colour only in picture view can changes be noticed. Generally the headlines in black are not readable if you prefer dark grey as background. Any suggestions? Thank´s in advance.
Dirk

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That's strange because my Event view background is black and the text is white. When viewing an open event the background can be adjusted in iPhoto Preferences just the same as the Photos view.
Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, from your User/Library/Preferences folder and see if that will help.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I have a DVD Acrobat Pro 9. I upgraded laptops and trying to install but the DVD is not readable. How can I get a new DVD or Download Acrobat Pro 1. The product is registered and I have the serial number. PS: Contacting Adobe on this issue is impossible... direct support stinks.

Download AA 9 Pro from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. Make a new backup for your archive. You might also take the DVD to your library to see if it is a drive problem. You might also carefully clean the DVD with water and soap (do not use anything that would scratch the surface or you have destroyed it for sure) and see if that solves the problem. This is particularly an issue if you have finger prints or other crud on the DVD. However, it could also be a bad drive as I mentioned. Hopefully the download solves your problem in any case (I would backup the download to CD and/or backup HD).

Satellite P105-S6197: How to use the system recovery disc

Greetings,
I have a P105-S6197 and I have followed the instructions on the recovery disc,
1. Place the disc or #1 disc into the drive.
2. Power up the computer while holding down the "C" key (release the "C" key when the screen reads "Toshiba")
but these instructions do not work the computer just boots up normally and never runs the disc.
Is there another way to get the disc to run so that I can completely reformat my computer to the way it was when it was first purchased.
Thanks, Edana

I can provide the same information like kody:
There are different options to enable the booting from the CD/DVD drive.
The first one is pressing the C button (you should press it several times) immediately after notebook was powered up.
The second possibility could be the F12 button.
This would enable the boot menu on the screen and then you could choose the CD/DVD drive as a boot device.
Last but not least you could change the booting order in the BIOS.
Set the CD/DVD drive (ODD) at the first place and the notebook should boot from the inserted, bootable CD automatically.
Regards

Hard drive and dvd are not recognized in the setup menu, what could be wrong?

The hard drive and dvd drive are not recognized on the setup menu for my Pavilion a4316f desktop computer. Could it be a failure of the controller? Can a PCI controller be used to replace the mother board controller?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The Recovery process would erase you hard drive, and attempt to install a fresh OS. Decidely a bad choice if you wanted to save your data files. The Recovery sets are "tattoo" with the BIOS hardwafre configuration. It will not, IMHO, recognize the PCI Sata card.
You mentioned the Recovery program on the hard drive actually requested the installer of the controller (PCI card). Try running from that.

Dvd are not recognized

Hi there
in many communities iMac users report the same problem I have, but no clear solution found so far.
My specs:
- iMac 27" (from mid 2010)
- 3.2 Ghz Intel Core i3
OS: OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
DVD-ROM OPTIARC
DVD RW AD-5680H, Revision: 3AHB
Issue:
- Many original DVD's are not recognized anymore...since a few weeks, before almolst no DVD was rejected.
-> It seems the more DVD's I try, the less my iMac can read....
No configuration changes, I've only made the regular oficial updates coming from Apple.
Any solution ideas, but cleaning the lenses? Much apreciated!

Have you tried a lens cleaning disk. One that uses dry brushes and no liquids? Have you looked into the OS X Mavericks: Use Apple Diagnostics or Apple Hardware Test?

CC 2014 on Yosemite shows applications launched after restart (but they are not)

Wondering if anyone else is having this issue. Running Yosemite GM on a late 2009 27" iMac.
All of the apps (except Bridge...which has been extensively discussed) appear to work fine. I routinely use Illustrator, PShop, After Effects, and Audition....no issues...
When I restart my machine, however, and OS X goes to restore all of the apps that were open before restarting...that's when things get strange. In my dock, there are dots below the apps that were open, indicating that they've relaunched....although if I click on one of the icons in the dock to move over to that app, the app launches....it wasn't actually open although it shows as open and running in the dock. Furthermore, if you right click on one of the "running" icons after restart it shows the app as non-responsive and asks if you want to force quit.
It really hasn't made any material difference in my work...like I said, all of the apps work (except Bridge when it comes to previewing AE presets) and it's just mildly frustrating....
Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks

Jeff,
I have two machines, a late 2009 27" iMac running Yosemite 10.10.2 with 12g of ram, and an early 2009 17" MacBook Pr with 8g of RAM, same OS.
Creative Cloud runs perfectly on the MacBook Pro, all the apps hang on the iMac. I have disabled every extension, I have deleted CC and reinstalled, I have deleted all the apps and ran the cleaner and reinstalled everything, they still hang. I use dropbox and have unchecked the finder config, both machines. I use FontAgent Pro on both machines. Both machines have Skyfonts. I have no problem with any other app on the iMac or the MacBook Pro. No wifi issues. We just moved here 10 days ago, the problem started then. If it was unseated RAM, other applications would be affected, and they are not. Can you help?
Nancy
