Hi there,
I' Using the Toshiba 46TL963G TV since 5 monts, recetly i asked for the **bleep** new software update and I let it install (ofcourse its connected via ethernet cable). After instalment the TV restarted automatically and everything was fine. I could watch TV well and I turned it OFF. and later Next morning When I turned On, it doesn't function anymore!!
How Crap is this TV.. It does the automatic software update and it conks off itself!!!
 and the most annoying thing is that I went to this website "http://support.toshiba.com/" to get the support for this TV and when I entered the 8 charachter moderl of my TV , it say, wrong entry. WTF!!!! You dont clain your own product as yours??
Please help me how can I get my TV working fine as before, else I really have to start working on creating a blog "Reason Why one SHOULD not buy TV from TOSHIBA"
- Many thanks
Aravind

Peter, You _know_ that the firmware update crashes the TV. There have been enough reports of this online, and so much of it here on this forum that you cannot have missed it. Users need to resort to auto-flashing the firmware with files that are not publicly available from your site. Could you not at least remove the offending firmware from the list of things the television can automatically download? Aravind, you might try contacting the toshiba support to get them to send you the correct file to put on an USB device to force the TV to launch the update once plugged. Roaming the forums, it seems like this file should be something like "46TL963G_******_INIT_CLEAR.bin". Kellindil

  • I am returning to using firefox 4.?.....I will need to turn off the automatic software update so that it does not update back up to firefox 7 again.

    Hi, I am back again with my tweaked brain. LOL I am trying to go back to Firefox 4, which I had so much less trouble with and liked a whole lot more. I am told that after installing the older version I need to turn off the automatic Firefox software update (if enabled)........I don't know where the automatic software update is located. Can you help me? Thank you for your help.......I will check back in a little while.......GOD bless you and all that you do for others.........loving you in Christ.......<3

    You can try to clear the cache and cookies to see if that makes a difference:
    <h3>Clearing Cache</h3>
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

  • IBook freezing at start up after Automatic Software Updates

    Hello All! I am new here and this is the first major issue I have had with my iBook since it was purchased back in 2004. Not sure what is going on with it...
    I installed all the Automatic Software Updates, as I have always done in the past, then I shut the computer down for the day instead of restarting it. Since it gives you those two options so I choose Shut down. Well, the next morning my husband went to turn the computer on and it gave him trouble but then it finally started up but then as the screen turning on, it was jumpy with lines shooting up and down like crazy. So we force restarted it and then nothing. We removed the battery to see if that would help and it did at least let us get to the log in screen, slowly, but it got us there. Then, it froze. Restart, login, froze. Restart, logged in successfully, froze on desktop screen.
    Not sure what to do now. Can anyone help? Let me know if you need any additional questions answered and I will so my best to answer them.
    Thank you in advance for your time and help,
    Kara

    Hello Kara,
    First of all, Welcome to the  Discussion forums!
    I installed all the Automatic Software Updates
    Normally, after installing updates to your software, it is wise to run the Repair Permissions function of Disk Utility found in your Utilities folder.
    It sounds like something got corrupted doing the updates/shutdown.
    I would try booting to your install cd/dvd and run the Repair Disk function. This is different than Repair Permissions from your HD's Disk Utility.
    To do this:
    Startup from your install cd/dvd while holding down the "c" key.
    When the installer splash screen appears, ignore it, and go directly to the Installer Menu in your top Apple Menus and select Disk Utility.
    When Disk Utility from the Install disk opens select your HD in the left pane and then select the First Aid Tab if not already selected and then click on Repair Disk button. If it finds errors it cannot repair you may need a more robust Disk Repair utility such as Disk Warrior or Tech Tool Pro.
    If Disk Utility reports the disk has been repaired quit the Disk Utility and then quit the installer and reboot and see if you can now login normally and your desktop appears (unfrozen).
    If it does startup normally, open Disk Utility from the HD and run the Repair Permissions function.
    post back if you cannot boot to the install cd/dvd and run Repair Disk or if you have further comments or questions,

  • After automatic software update- being prompted for Darwin login - HELP!

    I'm now locked out of the Powerbook G4. Purchased this system back in 2004 - haven't even used it since then as we didn't know how to hook it up to the internet. Recently powered it up and got it hooked into the network (although wireless not working). Noticed that all software and virus stuff was way, way out of date - so did that automatic software update. Once everything was downloaded - it asked to reboot the system. When system reboot, it's now sitting at the Darwin/BSD prompt - asking for a login: - when I try the login that we setup for the computer, it just spits back incorrect login. Tried Administator as well - no LUCK!
    Any suggestions??

  • After Automatic Software Update I Can't Attach Photos in Hotmail via Safari

    Suddenly after my iMac update the software on my computer, I suddenly can't attach any photos in Hotmail when I launch Safari.
    I have been a Hotmail user for 10 years now and never have had this problem before. This has been my primary account for these years and I don't want to start another email account with a different carrier.
    In the middle of uploading on every attachment, I get an error saying "There was a problem adding this file to the message" The files are not too large or the wrong file type.
    I am using Safari 5.0.2 and Mac OS C 10.6.4
    I am frustrated by this.
    Can someone please help me
    THANKS SO MUCH

    Hi,
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset. Quit Safari (Command + Q) Relaunch Safari and try attaching a photo to Hotmail.
    If that doesn't help, open a Finder window select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder.
    Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash. Relaunch Safari.
    If that didn't help either, quit Safari. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. Try an attachment again. If it works, then move that .plist file to the Trash.
    Check Safari / Preferences - Security to make sure you either have: Always accept cookies or *Only from sites I visit* selected.
    You've had similar issues with Hotmail in the past. http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11580566#11580566
    I don't want to start another email account with a different carrier
    At some point, you may want to consider switching to Mac Mail instead of using web based mail written by Microsoft as they may not always support the Safari browser.

  • IPhone 5 stuck with iTunes logo after latest software update. Help!

    I got a message that there was a software update for my iPhone5 and I plugged it in to update. When I returned to check later, the screen was stuck with the iTunes logo and a usb plug graphic. This has been over 2 hours and it won't go away and I cannot use my phone. When I unplug it, the logo stays a while then screen goes black/turns off. When I turn it back on, the graphic returns for a few seconds and the phone turns off again.
    HELP! I"m clueless on what to do.

    Your iPhone is in recovery mode, plug it into a computer with iTunes and restore it to factory settings. The article below can help you out:

  • Can't access HD or Finder after new Software update!  Help

    I ran the software update on my G5 & now it wont let me access my hard drive or finder. It will lt me run apps from my dock, but thats it. When it loads it only loads the top toolbar by the clock & thats it. The computer is a workstation & hasn't had access to the internet in 8 months.
    I'm running:
    G5 10.4.11
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Blake, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, but it's best to start with these two steps, which may fix it also...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc , then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, *you must select your language first.)*
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
    Safe Boot... holding Shift key down at bootup. Safe Boot is a special way to start Mac OS X 10.2 or later when troubleshooting.

    If you can't find your Install Disc, at least try from Safe Boot onward.

  • ITunes and Quicktime Error after automatice Apple update, need help!!!

    So I currently have a new labtop with windows vista. I have been runining iTunes for the pass 3 months already no problems. The Apple automatic update has never caused any problems till now. Quicktime needed to be updated today, and I accecpted the update, prior to that iTunes and Quicktime was working properly. Once the quicktime update was complete, it restarted my computer like usual. Then when I tried to open iTunes this error came up:
    "iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
    Now I checked the audio configuration and nothing was changed or anything, that has not been touched at all, so I still think it had to do with the update. The next error was came up when I tried to open Quicktime and it read:
    "Runtime Error!
    Program C://ProgramFiles/QuickTime/QuickTimePlayer.exe
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
    Please contact the application's support team for more information"
    So as long as I have been using Quicktime and iTunes I have never encountered this, I tried to re-install but the error kept coming up after it was installed. Please help me out!

  • "Bluetooth: Not Available" problem created by software update; need help please?

    I ran a regular software update as prompted by my iMac to get to 10.6.8, and now have "Bluetooth: Not Available" with squiggly line thru it.  I've tried an SMC, updated software to 10.8.4...no availability of my Bluetooth to work the magic mouse, or any ability to access Bluetooth in System Preferences...help please?

    You say you have "tried an SMC."  Reset the SMC nd PRAM again.

    P.S.  It is unlikely that the update had anything to do with the missing Bluetooth.

  • My Imac (OS X 10.7.4) doesn't turn off after last software update.

    The problem is this: when I try to turn off my IMac, the desktop disappears and the display becomes white, without anything else. It may stay in this way for several hours, maybe days.
    I only can turn it off by pushing the on/off button for ten seconds.
    The start up is also very slow.
    Any suggestions?

    Try an SMC Reset and a PRAM Reset:
    SMC Reset
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and disconnect attached devices.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Reset PRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P and R.
    You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Bootcamp partion lost after OS X update, Need help repair my disk.

    Hi.
    After updating to Yousimiti yesterday, i encountered som problems with my bootcamp partion.
    I wasn't able to boot from the partion. I googled a lot, and found some posts, where the problem was resolved, and followed the following steps:
    sudo fdisk -e /dev/disk0
    p
    setpid 4
    07
    flag 4
    p
    write
    y
    After this i was able to boot form my Drive, but it tells me: "Operating system missing".
    Then i started investigating further i saw that my bootcamp partion now only is 60GB, where before it was 100GB.
    When i first made my Bootcamp i made it 60GB which i fast found out was not enough for the programs i needed, so i used a program on windows to expand the patron, from empty space on the disk. Now i have 40GB blokced space, and the 60GB Bootcamp.
    From what i have read the problem is that Windows and OS X does not use the same Data table format.
    Is it possible to Rewrite the datable, os that OS X knows that the Windows part is 100GB and not only 60?
    Underneath here i linked to some screenshots of the problem, Hope you guys can help me! (Sorry that it is danish, hope you see et anyways)
    And there some info that i got from a "Partition inspector app":

    The drive is dying, I doubt you can fix it, but...
    10.6 has been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE.

  • Fans are always on after late Oct. automatic software update

    The fans are always on after yesterday's automatic software update (late Oct 2011).
    The fans run at 5500, cpu temp is at 85C with only Mail and Safari on, and Activity monitor shows that the 95% of the CPU activity is consumed by  CoreserviceSD, whatever that may be. What's going on?
    MBP 2011, 17", 2.2, i7, 8GB.

    CoreserviceSD does a lot of display services for Finder. It is used to display Icons, for example.
    Searches for CoreServiceSD suggest SOME other users have solved this problem by clearing caches.

  • 10.5.7: Automatic Software Update Feature No Longer Works

    Ever since I installed 10.5.7 the automatic Software Update feature no longer works. (Manual updates work fine.) For example, here's what happened today with Safari 4.0.2:
    1. After powering up I got the Software Update icon on the Dock.
    2. I clicked it and it said I had updates that would require a reboot and it asked the usual stuff. (It didn't say what would update.)
    3. I clicked to reboot now and it asked for my password and rebooted.
    4. My MacBook rebooted but nothing had been updated.
    So, I went to the Apple menu to check for updates and it said I had Safari 4.0.2 ready to be installed. This time, it worked. Unfortunately, I have to do this two-step process on every update that requires a reboot. I could turn off the automatic updates and just do everything manually but I prefer the automatic way. (I had it before, too.)
    Thanks in adavance,
