Satellite: P755-S5265 HW touchpad and some media buttons misconfigured

MY HD broke, so I intalled fresh on a new HD using the system recovery disks. 
I needed to work though many issues, relating to drivers and hw that did not restore but most are all working now.
The current issue I am working is configuring the button assignments, they are messed up. 
http://screencast.com/t/QOkPuOjMAv2D
The "Button Setting Asignment" utility does not have the wierless or echo button or the touchpad.
the function key assignment tools did not seem to help.
I use the wireless button all the time and I need it to work.
Any help?

Sounds like you restored to a disk with advanced-format technology. See my message about that.
It may be best to start from the beginning with a fresh restore and immediately install the new storage driver.

  • Touchpad and some keys won't work, other weird problems

    I have a Satellite A665. Last night it started randomly playing and then turning off a DVD that was in the drive. I ejected the DVD, but now there is a constant high pitched tone coming out of the speakers, and the touchpad can't be used to open anything. The touchpad can still control the cursor, and I can left click to open things. Also, the internet connection has disconnected and the key used to open the connection doesn't work. Pressing and holding the Fn key doesn't do anything. 
    Any suggestions? 
    Many thanks.

    Shut down the computer and try again. It almost sounds like something is on the keyboard, or maybe something got spilled on the keyboard. Try an external keyboard and see if that works. Try booting from the CD or a flash drive and see if that fixes the problem. If it does, this is a software problem. If not, it's the hardware. 

  • Firefox doesn't display Amazon.ca website properly. Text is missing and some navigation button texts are screwy. Older version of FF worked well but each time I upgrade the same thing happens. Help!

    With each new version of Firefox, I run into the same issue with Amazon.ca (amazon.com works fine). For instance, on Amazon.COM the links for my account and help are stated as "Your Account | Help". On amazon.CA the links for my account and help are stated as "your-account_279 | topnav-help_1057".
    When I log into my account on Amazon.COM I have a web page with text and buttons and links. all functioning. When I log into my account on Amazon.CA I get nothing except two orange buttons - "Your Orders" and "sell my stuff". everything else is blank.
    This has happened with each upgrade of Firefox. It seems that Amazon.CA finally gets their coding right and FF comes out with a new version which then screws the website up. are you making your upgrades available to Amazon.CA?
    And just so you know, The same thing happens on IE and Chrome.

  • Blue screen on Satellite P755-10c

    My laptop toshiba satellite p755-10c was restarted and covered many times this week with a blue screen of death! Does anyone know what is the problem?

    Hi
    BSOD can be cause by hardware problem or serious software issue.
    I think you should firstly recover the notebook using the Toshiba HDD recovery or the Recover disk which you have created as described in user manual.
    If the BSOD would still appears, try to update the display driver and BIOS (if newer version is available)
    Of course the BSOD could appear also if the RAM starts to malfunctions or if the internal temperature increases to a higher level and affects the internal parts.

  • 2 white areas are visibly different in some media players/Youtube, but not others/Vimeo!

    Thank you for stopping by.
    It's like I have a ghost in Premiere!
    I uploaded the same video to Youtube and Vimeo and it looks totally different!
    Youtube shows the problem, Vimeo doesn't -
    Youtube:
    Vimeo:
    Any ideas why the screen capture background (recorded with Screencast-o-matic) appears darker in Youtube?
    Brightening it up in Premiere has no effect - Premiere shows both backgrounds as being pure white - so why does Youtube (and some media players - such as VLC player, depending on what video rendering settings are applied) show this difference in hue and do you know how I can export the video (which is h264) so that there's no possible way this can happen?
    Thank you for any leads!
    PS. Premiere Pro CC (v7.0.0 - 342)

    I'm back!
    With some results...
    If this box in VLC is checked, the mis-matching whites exists.
    If unchecked, the powerpoint background become exactly as bright as the camcorder video in the corner.
    (The reason things also look green & generally extra dim in the top screenshot  is because I applied your video limiter adjustment layer Richard,
    which didn't seem to affect the mis-match issue unfortunately)
    So, it seems like something to do with YUV / RGB conversions maybe? or mis matching?
    Hopefully useful research! Still not sure how to export from Premiere in a way that eliminates the risk of these 2 whites appearing differently, regardless of player/settings.
    In case useful, here's what MediaInfo tells me about the

  • Satellite P305-S8832 - Media buttons don't work with Win7

    Hello Wise Friends,
    Recently I installed two brand new hard drives (500GB 7200 rpm OS/ 500GB 5400 rpm DATA) and I did a clean installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bits on my 3 1/2 Toshiba Satellite P305-S8832. Everything but the media buttons is working pretty well.
    I downloaded the drivers from the Toshiba repository including the Toshiba Software installer for Windows 7 and the toshiba valued package. Still those tactile buttons which are above the keyboard and between the speakers does not work, no light, no response, nothing. I have checked the bios.
    These buttons work out of the box with Ubuntu Linux, Windows XP and Windows Vista.
    Any advice?

    Hi
    Generally speaking, the Multimedia buttons are controlled by VAP (value added package) and the buttons should work after the installation of VAP.
    Found the drivers here:
    [Satellite P305-S8832 drivers|http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=2059997& rpn=PSPC0U&modelFilter=P305-S8832&selCategory=2756709&selFamily=1073768663#]
    It seems that there is also a newer version of VAP available.
    Check other newer Sat P series in order to get latest VAP version.
    Furthermore install the Hardware Setup. This tool lets you customize your hardware settings

  • MBA 13" media buttons not working with iTunes

    I just got my mba 13" and everything is great, but for some reason the media buttons do not work with itunes. I've tried them with vlc and other applications and they work fine. Any ideas how I can fix this?
    Thanks!

    No, it didn't work fine with VLC. Whenever I pressed "play/pause", it'll trigger iTune and the media buttons become the controller for both applications at the same time.

  • DVD drive does not recognize some media on Satellite A30-514

    I own a Satellite A30-514 laptop with Microsoft xp OS. Just lately, some DVD's (not games) will not play from the drive. some do some don't. It is not a region problem - they are all region 2. Windows does not read the disc when it is inserted and does not register a disc in the drive when I show 'my computer'. CD's all play normally. Could this be a driver (internal) issue or is my DVD CD combo just too old now?
    Thanks Marie.

    Hi
    To give you some precise answer it will be interesting to know which DVDs are not readable. Meaning of word 'some media' is to general and not helpful to understand the problem.
    Satellite A30 is pretty old notebook model and it is possible that ODD functionality is not good anymore. You can try to clean the lens.

  • Satellite A100-033: I disabled touchpad and now Fn+F9 doesn't enable it

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-033 running Vista Home Basic. I mostly use the laptop as a desk top replacement and, as I dislike using the touchpad, I disabled it, and instead I use an external mouse via one of the USB ports.
    I am not sure whether I disabled the touchpad by pressing Fn + F9 or by some other means (if it was by some other means I have forgotten what this was). Recently I wished to re-enable the touchpad so that I could use the laptop outside the house. However, I found that pressing Fn & F9 did not re-enable the touchpad and I now can't use the touchpad at all.
    If I go into mouse properties (in control panel), this tells me that my synaptics pointing device is enabled. If I go into device manager and look at "mice", I am told that my touchpad is working properly.
    All this makes me suspect that the problem is not a hardware fault but that I have altered some setting, with the result that my touchpad is permanently disabled until I change the setting back to its original state.
    Help!

    Jayjay, Thanks for your suggestions. I don't seem to have a system restore point which goes back far enough, so I don't think that possibility will work.
    Regarding the possibility of reinstalling the touchpad driver, I may have to do this, but I am a bit put off by the fact that when I downloaded the touchpad driver from the Toshiba site and had a look at it, I was told that it was older than the one I already have on my laptop.
    (My laptop is a year old and the touchpad driver on the Toshiba website was last updated in early 2007.)
    I'm a bit reluctant to install a driver which is older than the one which I have already got and which my laptop tells me is working properly.
    As I said, I may have to try re-installing the touchpad driver anyway, but I think I will wait a bit first, and see if I get any other suggestions.
    Thanks again for your reply.

  • Touchpad and touchscreen not working-Satellite C55Dt-B5205

    I just purchased a Satellite C55Dt-B5205 on Tuesday, ran all the updates, and everything was working fine. I upgraded to Windows 10, and now my touchpad and the left/right buttons do not work at all. The touchscreen works on everything except only intermittently on the Google Chrome browser (at least everything that I've tried). I have tried enabling the touchpad, but it says it's already enabled. So then I tried turning my computer off, unplugging everything, taking the battery out, and holding the power key for 30 seconds. That didn't work either. (It was an idea I found online.) I've also tried the F5 button, that does nothing also. The touchpad DOES work when I restart the computer, at the screen where I have to sign in to the computer, but once I sign in, it not longer works.Any help would be greatly appreciated, and just FYI, I'm not hugely computer savvy, so clear instructions would be better.

    I did some research last night. On Tom's hardware forum under post "Touchpad scroll not working - Windows 10" yoko_oh_no had a similar issue with their Satellite M-50-A and solved the problem with an earlier version of Elantech touchpad drive "Elantech_Touchpad_11.8.24.6". I've downloaded (from elsewhere) and installed this driver* 11.8.24.6 and all's fine on Windows 8.1 but I don't particularly want to re-install Windows 10 on my Satellite S50D-B-100 and find I've still got a problem with a non functioning touchpad. Perhaps someone who currently has Win 10 on their Satellite with a non working touchpad could give it a go? Important: Before trying the above first of all ensure that you have an Elan touchpad - not a Synaptics touchpad.Go to Control Panel and search for device manager, click on "Mice and other pointing devices" and check that it says Elan PS/2_SMBus Port Input Device or similar. *The only Elan downloadable drivers that showed for Satellite S50-B family on Toshiba Support (Computer Support -> Download Drivers) for my 64 bit Windows 8.1 were 11.8.22.3 and 11.8.29.5

  • Satellite A205-s4707: High temperature of touchpad and HDD

    Hi
    just bought a toshiba satellite A205-s4707 series laptop and my problem is that my touch pad gets heat when i use the for a few ours.
    Is it normal, also my hard drive temperature reaches 135 fahrenheit degrees.
    If you can help me with my problem a will appreciate

    Hm, I dont think that this is a problem because your machine is working properly, doesnt it?
    I mean, you have a really powerful system which is packed in a minimum of size.
    Please compare your machine with a desktop and you will recognize that you have much lesser cooling devices than a desktop computer with a similar performance. So, dont worry, thats normal that a notebook computer gets a little bit warmer.
    If something starts to melt, then its critical. :) But it wont happen. ;)

  • Hard Disk issue with Toshiba Satellite P755-S5390

    Well, I'm at my wit's end on this one so after several months of searching for an answer I'm presenting this one to my fellow Toshiba users.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite P755  that I purchased around March of 2012 so it is well out of warranty unfortunately. I'm having an odd issue that could just be a faulty hard drive but I wanted to see if anyone had any similar experiences with their Toshibas that might lead this to be a recurring issue with other Toshibas.
    The first symptoms my laptop experienced were the computer locking up and the hard drive light staying lit constantly. This first happened right after I was using WIn 7 disk management to shrink the main partition so I could create a second partition. The exact step this happened at was when I had already shrunk the main partition and had just finished creating the second partition. It hadn't even refreshed the disk management screen when it just locked up completely.
    I left it locked up for almost a half hour and then did a forced shutdown and when it came back up it was really slow and the hard drive light was staying lit constantly. Eventually it wouldn't even start up and the drive light still stayed on constantly (not even blinking, just solid on).
    My first thought was obviously hard disk failure so I grabbed a spare that should have worked perfectly as it was just harvested from a perfectly fine little netbook. I popped the drive in and reinstalled Win 7 and it worked fine...for a few weeks. Then it did the exact same thing except this time it eventually just wouldn't recognize any boot media. I cursed my bad luck in having two failed hard drives and used an older one that I had spare that, as I recall, worked fine when I harvested it from the old laptop it came out of. It worked again...for a couple of days. Then it did the same thing as the first (hard drive light staying lit, not responding hardly at all). I even hooked all these little laptop hard drives up to my file servers SATA ports and they loaded fine and I was able to back stuff up.
    My dilemma here is that I know it could just be that I was using old hard drives and maybe by some chance they all failed because they were old but I'd hate to buy a new hard drive if that's not the problem.
    Has anyone had any similar experiences with their Toshibas? I even tried testing the RAM and even removing one module at a time. I also tried pulling the battery and running it straight from the charger thinking maybe it was shorting something out.
    As an additional note. One interesting thing that happened after the third drive went bad was that I plugged in the original hard drive thinking I could further troubleshoot and it worked perfectly fine for about a month. It then proceeded to do the same thing again. That's about where I am now. The only other thing I did was yesterday when I pulled the battery and tried it. It did respond very well for at least long enough to almost finish the reinstall to factory partitions but it failed at the last minute and rebooted. It then loaded the Windows startup screen and locked up with the hard drive light staying lit solid.
    Sorry for the novel but I wanted to make sure all my troubleshooting steps were documented so no one suggested those. My last step is to pop in another used drive and install Ubuntu and see what happens then.

    How did you reinstall Win 7 on the replacement drive?  Did you use the the Toshiba Recovery Disks you should have created as per the directions on page 74 of your User's Guide, following the recovery directions on page 76, and return your unit to its factory default out-of-the-box setup? What happens if you return your unit to its factory default set up? This is considered the gold standard test on whether you have a hardware problem/failure, as opposed to a driver-software-conflict problem.
    You seem quite familiar with Windows Disk Management software, yet you don't mention running the built in disk 'Error-checking' utility.
    If you believe you may be suffering from some kind of hard drive problems, this would seem a logical step. You can access this utility by clicking on 'Start' -> click on 'Computer' -> right click on 'C:' drive -> click on 'Properties' -> click on the 'Tools' tab -> under 'Error-checking' click the 'Check now...' button -> put check marks on both the 'Automatically fix....' and 'Scan for...' options -> click the 'Start' button. The utility will inform you it can't be run now and ask if you want to schedule for the next restart, agree and restart your computer. Depending on the size of your hard drive and the problems the utility may encounter this could take from 20 minutes to several hours.
    Let us know what happens. Good luck.

  • Black screen of death/Satellite P755-S5215

    I have a manufactured refurbished laptop. The first time I powered it on after taking it out of the box, it booted to the Toshiba logo and then went to a blue/grey screen with the blinking cursor in the left corner. I tried all the suggestions short of removing the hard drive because it does have a 90 day warranty and I didn't want to lose that. The reason why I'm searching for fixes on my own is because I ordered it online through the Toshiba store on ebay from the U.S. and had it shipped to a friend in the U.S. and he brought it down to me here in Belize. It will be risky and costly to ship it back for repairs and I've not been able to get it registered. I get an error when I put in the part number and serial number... not sure why this is but Toshiba will not process a repair order without it being registered. Anyway, I thought I would try again to see if anyone else has any ideas. Below is a list of the things I've tried so far. By the way, F8 does not work at all, it will not bring up that screen so I can't start up in safe mode. It will boot up with a repair disc or an installation disc. It states that there is a start up issue but can't repair it. It will not allow a windows installation on any of the partitions, says, "windows can't install on this partition". After attempting several things, it gives the error message, "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media and kit a key"... and yes, I've checked the boot order and the HDD boot option is listed first. The tech at Toshiba just said that it should come in for repair after I tried his suggestion of holding down the zero key and hitting the power button... that's when I got the error message. By the way, there was never any beeping when I held down zero or any other key (if that matters).
