Satellite R630-14J - AC adaptor make high constant noise

I don't know if this is maybe normal but I think my charger did not make this noise a few month ago.
I got my Satellite R630 14J in November 2010.
Since some weeks my charger beeps (a very high constant noise) when my notebook gets charged or even when the charger is plugged in into the computer.
Does anyone else has the same issue or know if this is a case for the support of Toshiba?
Thanks for response
Nicolas

It is definitely case for Toshiba service.
Contact nearest Toshiba service provider and explain the situation.
They will help you with this and in worst case you will get new AC adapter.

  • Satellite R630-14J -How to remove keyboard?

    Hi there
    I have bought a Toshiba Satellite R630-14J, and i would like to remove de keyboard for clean it.
    I have tried to remove the plastic case between the keys, but I have not succeeded.
    Any Ideas would be appreciated.

    >i would like to remove de keyboard for clean it.
    In my opinion its not necessary to remove the keyboard in order to clean it.
    First of all its possible to remove the single keycaps. In case you would not be able to remove dirt, you could remove the keycap firstly. But be careful...
    In your case I would use a cotton wool tip and some drops of alcohol in order to clean the keyboard

  • Time capsule makes high pitch noise then shuts down

    Time capsule makes high pitches noise then shuts down

    Unfortunately, this is the sound of the high voltage capacitors in the main power supply failing. It will not be long until the Time Capsule makes no sound.
    If the Time Capsule in warranty, Apple will replace it. If you have AppleCare in effect on one of your Macs, the Time Capsule might be covered as well if it is not more than 3 years old.
    Take the Time Capsule to an Apple Store....if you have one near you....to discuss your options.
    Or, contact Apple Support directly.

    If the Time Capsule is out of warranty, Apple will not offer repairs, but there are some shops that will repair the device for you. See this link for more details:

  • Satellite A30: HDD started to make a buzzing noise

    Hello,
    The hard drive has started to make a buzzing noise on my A30, I guess this is not good news, i.e. it is Kaput?
    I downloaded HDDLife which tells me the hard drive is all ok, but I don't feel very confident.
    I have backed up everything, and am thinking about a replacement hard drive.
    So I have two Q's:
    Should I get a new hard drive?
    & if so, then would one of these be compatible?
    http://www.tfc-computer.de/index.php?details=737&suche=___
    Thanks

    Hi
    These are not great news.
    3 month ago my HDD went dead. It was a simply head crash.
    A day before it happened I have noticed strange sound coming from notebook inside.
    But I was not sure if its a HDD sound.
    So day after I wanted to start the notebook but the BIOS has not recognized the HDD.
    So I have replaced a hdd and all was ok.
    So take care. Maybe the same will happen to you.
    I dont know if the 80GB will work but as far as I can remember some A30 was delivered with a 40GB HDD.
    SO maybe you will be able to use a 60GB but Im not sure about the 80GB. You have to test it, you know
    PS. The notebook should support the enhanced IDE (ATA-5) interface

  • Satellite R630-14J - after Skype update web cam has disappeared

    Update to Skype 6.6. the Webcam disappeared. not visible in device Manager. multiple Downloads of web cam Drivers don't execute. checked bios. Rebooted machine multiple times.
    What to do to install web cam Software again?

    Hi
    To be honest I cannot understand why webcam device disappears from device manager list after skype update.
    I mean even if there would be a software problem (compatibility issues), the webcam should be listed in device manager even as an unknown device.
    However, by default, certain devices are not shown in the list. To include hidden devices in Device Manager display, click View and select Show Hidden Devices.
    However, I assume you are using Win 7 system.
    > multiple downloads of webcam drivers don't execute
    On Toshiba EU driver page you can find the webcam software.
    Maybe new Skype version damage something in registry. Would recommend uninstalling the Skype firstly. Download and install the repair tool like CCleaner. Clean registry and reboot the notebook. Now try to install the webcam software once again. Reboot the unit and check if you can use the webcam using installed webcam too.

  • GRUB makes high pitched noise....forever

    Whenever I get into grub it makes a high pitched mosquito-ringtone type noise. The type that your parents are supposed to be unable to hear. When I first installed Ubuntu 3 years ago, it did the same thing, but it stopped after 2-3 seconds. Now, in Arch and Ubuntu (32 and 64bit) it just keeps going forever until I boot. I have tested it until I had to start an OS or risk a migraine.
    Does anyone else get this? The problem has followed me across 3 computers, and others in my family have heard it too, so it isn't just me or my machine.
    [off-topic]Where would this go in the Arch Support section? It's not the Kernel....and it isn't Arch specific[/off-topic]

  • My I phone charger is really hot, and can make high pitch noises is this normal?

    My iphone is getting really hot and it is starting to worry me is it meant to do that?

    No, not normal at all.
    Do you have another charger you can try?
    If not, I would recommend you make an appointment at an Apple store and bring your phone & its charger in to be examined and to determine if they need to be replaced.

  • Satellite R630-155 - Fan is too noisy and SSD upgrade

    I am the owner of a Toshiba Satellite R630-155 (Core i5-480). My problems are:
    1. The fan is too noisy and never stops. In normal operation (browsing and general office work) there is a constant high pitch noise that is audible three to four meters away in an office environment - in high load you just can't stand it!!! The fan never stops... even when you are doing nothing...
    2. Heat is a big problem. The bottom of the laptop is constantly overheating and i have to place it on my desk in a way that the bottom left corner is outside of the table so it can breath fresh air from below - if not, the temperature rises and the (loud) fan is unable to keep up. When i work with the laptop while sitting on a sofa, i have to place a thick book between the laptop and my legs. The book must be thick (more than an inch) with hard covers, otherwise the heat passes through the book!!!!
    3. Last (but not least, i just mention the biggest problems here) it's the problem with SSD installation. I bought a used Corsair F80 (80Gb SSD) from a friend, but i was unable to use it with the Toshiba - the BIOS was not detecting the disk. I tried installing all latest firmware updates for both laptop and SSD but i had no success. Then i gave the disk back and i bought a brand new Zalman 128Gb SSD (SSD0128N1 Sandforce) but i had exactly the same problem. I contacted my local Toshiba support and after a lot of conversation the only answer i got is that the laptop is not compatible with those SSD's and this is acceptable by Toshiba and not their problem. They told me that if i need an SSD upgrade i can only go for the Toshiba SSD that is installed on the portege series, which is sold by Toshiba for a ridiculously expensive price - about $500 for 128Gb. I contacted the European support center and i got the exact same reply. I searched on the Internet and i found someone else with the exact same problem with a Corsair 128Gb SSD - he found that the laptop detects the SSD after ten to twenty reboots. I tried that and it was true - after a lot of reboots the laptop detected the Zalman disk and i was able to install Windows 7 successfully, but the process is unacceptable. Also the disk is benchmarked by official sites at the speed of an OCZ Vertex 2 128Gb (and slightly better), but when i ran a benchmark in the Toshiba, the results I got were below half of the advertised speed. Same benchmark in another machine for the same disk, resulted in the advertised speeds.
    Shame for Toshiba... nice design and portability but everything else is a big flaw. Their support in non existent and they do not value their customers. I feel they stole my money and I'll never buy a Toshiba laptop again.
    Sorry for the big message, but I need I have to warn potential customers. Can someone help me with any of the above problems? Do you have the same problems too?
    To be continued...

    Hi buddy,
    Regarding the fan and heat issue: Did you make BIOS update? Friend of me has Satellite R630 too and he told me that fan activity with new BIOS version 2.10 is reduced. Furthermore the notebook is cooler than before so I would recommend installing this update. You can download the BIOS update here:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    But before you start the BIOS update you should consider the following tips:
    -Run update as Administrator only
    -Unzip all files from zip archive before you start the update file
    -Close all running programs and also the antivirus and firewall
    -Make sure that battery is fully charged
    Regarding the SSDs its always a little bit complicated installing 3rd party products and nobody can guarantee that such parts would work. You are always on safely side with original Toshiba spare parts.
    Everything what you can do is installing the newest firmware for SSD and hope that it works but who knows maybe the BIOS update will also help you in this case ;)

  • Satellite U500 - High pitched noise

    Hi,
    I have a Toshiba Satellite U500 and the system itself seems to be working perfectly well. About a month ago, my laptop began to make a noise, an unbearable constant high pitched noise. The only time that the noise stops is when the laptop is off and for a very brief period when windows starts up.
    The noise seems to come from the speakers, but it continues whether I mute the speakers or not*.

    Hi
    > How to disconnect HDD to check what you suggest.
    You can only remove it from the HDD bay the HDD bay is placed at the bottom of the unit and you have to remove the screw which secures the HDD bay cover.
    Then you could remove the HDD carefully
    But without HDD you are not able to boot into windows and as you already said you have discovered the issue. It seems to come from the speakers and its related to sound card.
    Maybe you should update the sound card driver and BIOS

  • Satellite R630 - No Fullscren on TV

    Hey,
    i tried to connect my Notebook with my TV with an HDMI-Wire, but I can't get a Fullscreen in the TV - there is a Black Frame around the Picture....anybody can help Please!!!
    thx a lot!!!

    Hmm... As far as I know Satellite R630 is equipped with Intel graphic card. Right?
    In this case you should check the properties of Intel display driver. In display driver menu Display Settings you have aspect ratio options. For example you can choose between Full Screen, Center desktop, etc.
    Make sure that Full Screen is enabled or test the other aspect ratio options. This should work.

  • Satellite R630 - need internal camera video capture software

    Help!!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite R630 laptop with skype installed.
    The video side of skype works perfectly well but i can't seem to find any software on my laptop that enables me outside of skype to make and capture video recordings using the built in camcorder in the laptop.
    What do I need to do to be able to do this?
    Thanks. Len

    Hi
    As far as I know you should find the software in All Programs -> Toshiba
    If its not installed, you can download this from the Toshiba European driver page.
    After the installation, the webcam tool control bar should be available in the upper are of the display. Its slides in and out in order to use it
    The webcam tool control bar can be moved to different areas (left right bottom upper area)

  • Wireless conection do not work in Satellite R630-13U Code : PT31LE-00V006

    Hi all
    I have bought a new Satellite R630-13U Code : PT31LE-00V006CE two weeks ago. Problem is that I am not able to get connected to any Wireless network (neither open or encripted with WPA nor WEP).
    In my laptop I got it with Windows 7 installed. I am able to see the wireless network icon next to the clock down right corner of the screen, also I am able to select one of the netwoks that the pc detects and show in the list. Then once I select the network it asks me for the password, and if I introduce a wrong password, I get the right error message.
    Problem comes when I introduce the right password..... then after a couple of mins where I can see the "process bar" screen I get an error message that just says " Not able to connect to "WNetwork Name"".
    As I said I have tried this with several networks open or with security and with both levels of security (WPA or WEP). I have tried this with different networks, with different routers, and in different places.... but never got a wifi connection with this new laptop.
    I have tried uninstalling the broadcom adapter, and reinstalling it downloading the driver from the official toshiba web site, also I have installed the last version of the "Added Value Package".... but still is not working.
    I have other friends with HP, o DELL that are using Windows 7 which are able to connect to the networks I am not , and with no problem..
    What else should I try to get this fixed??
    Thanks a lot

    Hi all
    Thanks a lot for the answer, but I dont think I have understood it correctly. What you mean is that I need to use the same encription that works with the router and with the Wireless card of the laptop (Broadcom).... but for me that would not be the right answer I need.
    Imagine that this can be the solution, so we need to change the security settings of my home wifi network and of our office to the one being accepted by the laptop,..... but what happens if I need to go to a customer, or to a cafe.... Do I have to ask them to change the security settings???.... my other laptos (even toshiba's) works fine with other networks... routers.... why is this one not working?.
    I have uninstalled the wifi card driver and installed it from the last one found in the toshiba's support site.... dont know really what else I should do.
    Please any advice will be very pleased.
    Regards

  • Satellite R630-12G - How to deactivate wireless communication?

    Hi !
    Everytime if i start my Satellite R630 12G notebook i have to deactivate the "Wireless communication" (blinks orange when its turned on).
    How to set it "OFF" as default ?

    Hello
    Im not Satellite R630 owner and I always use internal WLAN card but you should look in BIOS. Depending on the BIOS/mainboard you can disable WLAN.

    Alternative you can disable the internal WLAN card in device manager of Windows.

  • Satellite R630-105 - touchpad temporally freezes

    Hi all,
    Toshiba Satellite R630-105 model.
    When writing for a while (using the keyboard) without any rule-based touchpad icon character appears on the screen, and occasionally temporary freezing appears.
    At the same time I use a USB mouse, and I disabled the touchpad using the Fn-F9 Tin order to eliminate the problem.
    Disable USB mouse using the internal touchpad to be marked in the option menu Control Panel ->Mouse.
    Synaptics currently installed driver version 15.0.12.0 dated 11.03.2010.
    I also tried drivers installing at later date, but dont get a good result.
    I have tried the suggested solutions but it did not work this link:

    As I understood your issue, the touchpad icon appear while typing and this can be solved temporally disabling the touchpad pressing the FN +F9.
    Is this correct?
    In my knowledge you can disable the touchpad while typing by choosing the option in Control Panel > Mouse -> Pointing device tab (in some cases its Advanced tab) -> Setting button
    There is area called Operations during key input
    And there you can choose the option is called Disable tapping and Disable scroll function
