Toshiba Satellite C55 function key and Mic

I want to report that the Windows 10 upgrade is working well in Satellite C55 series, but some function keys are not responding (working) such as F12 Key that his function is enable/disable Airplane Mode, F5 key that his function is enable/disable touchpad. These function keys does not work, others run smoothly. So, I want to recover the key functionality. In total the function keys are 12 from F1 to F12. attached manual of the laptop. And when I plug my headphones (without microphone) to the laptop, the laptop can't receive sound from the integrated microphone, until I unplug my headphones, the laptop can receive sound from the integrated mic. It happens in Windows 8.1 and here in Windows 10. I don't what can I do?

Satellite C55-B5362 (PSCLUU-04N004)
Downloads here. I don't know which of those drivers/utilities needs to be reinstalled. Maybe you can let us know what happens.
Some Windows 10 updates here after you paste in your part number (PSCLUU-04N004).
For the Fx keys, try installing

SLow WIFI toshiba satellite C55-a and windows 8

Hi I recently bought a new laptop toshiba satellite C55-A with windows 8 on it. My older laptop runs super fast with my WIFI internet. The new one goes like SLOW like hell. I mean I have 10 MB internet and it goes like 500 K Please I am really tired of looking on Internet to fix a problem of a NEW computer. Plus, once I plug my computer with the Internet wire it RUNS on 10 MB! THANK YOU!

Hello! I also recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite C55t-A.
We have a desktop computer that is about 3 years old and another laptop that is about 6 years old. We have an apple Ipad and 2 cell phones with wifi. All of these devices work with our WIFI from our cable internet at high speeds.
This new computer is so slow using Wifi that it isn't really feasable to use it for surfing the web.
It has ran slow on WIFI straight out of the box...nothing has changed on it. We perhaps should have returned it, but it was purchased for a specific project we needed it for on a time deadline, so it was too inconvenient to return it. After using it for the project, it was past the return date.
Anyways, I am hoping this is fixable...we would like to be able to use the laptop for online work.
This problem isn't related to the position in the house (walls or distance) or the integrity/age of the router. All other devices work at different points throughout our home with the current router. This is the only computer that will not run at an acceptable WIFI speed.
We also cannot restore the computer (it worked this way out of the box and there are too many files (hours of work) that we can't lose.
Please, I would appreciate if there is any info that could help me. I suspect some type of driver or software that came installed on the laptop must not be compatible with our router.
Thank you!

All programs seam to work except HWsetup. Flashcards show up when using special function keys except for the volume, the volume special function keys work to turn volume up and down but you don’t see the flash cards, and of course there is no recovery partition so the recovery media creator cannot burn recovery media.
Updated to show instructions and pictures 8-24-2014
Instructions for changeing to from Windows 8 to windows 7.
INSTRUCTIONS:
First - Burn recovery media before you make any changes! -You may want or need to go back to windows 8 later-
Update BIOS to newest bios version, the C55 and possibly other models will not support CSM boot mode with the older bios versions.
Second -
Important Bios changes when changing from Windows 8 to Windows 7:
Completely shut down laptop (Shut down Windows 8 while pressing the Shift key to completely power off.) then restart computer and hold f2 when the screen goes black and wait for the bios setup utility to launch.
Select advanced, then system configuration, then boot mode
UEFI and CSM or legacy (UEFI for Windows 8 and CSM or legacy for windows 7)
For windows 7 change to CSM or Legacy mode.
Third - Also in bios setup utility select - Security, then Secure Boot, then you have to disable secure boot for windows 7.
You will need to delete all partitions before installing windows 7 this is done forth step.
Forth - Insert your windows 7 disc and select custom install, your partitions should show up - click on each one and below you will see advanced drive options, click that and you will have options to format - format each one, then delete each one. You will be left with one raw partition, select to install and windows will do the rest while installing the operating system.
Fifth - install drivers
Installation order is important:
Install chipset driver then video driver before other drivers. Then install Toshiba Value added package before other applications
-See attached pictures that show installed applications-

Can't create the recovery discs for Toshiba Satellite C55-A5387 Laptop

Hello, I just got my Toshiba Satellite with Windows 8 and have barely used it. One of the first things I did was go to the TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator to make recovery discs but I get error messages when burning the DVDs.
Toward the end of burning the DVD I see this:
"Failed to read the following file.
D:\ZZimages\ZZimages\install25.swm
(error Code: 02014F-20-0000000)"
Or this slightly different error messages:
"Failed to read the following file.
D:\ZZimages\ZZimages\install16.swm
(error Code: 02014F-20-0000000)"
Lost
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If the problem is the recovery partition on your hard drive instead of the DVD's you will have to call Tech support 1-800-457-7777 , Call while you still have 90 days free tech support.
Post your findings, thanks!

RE: RE: Function keys and droplists

I had to implement the same problem in a window. I wanted Ctrl-F to be the
same as the "Fetch" button. I forgot the SetAsFunctionKey existed, so I
created a Menu choice with a shortcut of "Find." I have had no problems,
when
Ctrl-F is pressed the "menuWidget.activate" event is posted and no keystroke
events are sent at all.

Switch function keys and Fkeys

The default use of the F-keys is for the functions such as brightness and volume. How do I switch function keys and F-keys so the F keys are the default, especially for programs that I can assign custom keystrokes such as in Adobe InDesign. Thanks

Hi, Shut down the notebook. Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Select the Bios option ( f10 ), then make the change shown in the document on the following link. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02035108&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US...

Function Keys and Mouse Right Click Stopped Working On New iMac

I bought a new iMac a couple of days ago and everything was working fine until last night when I noticed that the volume up/down function keys and also the mouse right click no longer worked.
For the mouse I tried turning off the right click option and back on again and also tried another mouse which has the same problem. Both work ok on a MBP which I have.
I have tried doing the normal SMC and PRAM resets which doesn't solve the problem.
One program which I installed after I got the computer was Logmein which screwed up my audio settings. After uninstalling that my audio settings are ok but I was wondering if the program could also have changed some other settings.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked the System/Keyboard preference pane to see if the Function key option is checked?

Satellite L305D-S5895 - Functions keys and WLan don't work with Win XP

Hi,
first sorry for my english
I bought a Toshiba Satellite l305d s5895, with winXP, because I need software, but the function keys doesn't works.
So I need a driver, but i can't find it, and the internet wireless doesn't work.

>Where would one find this special XP BIOS?
In my opinion there is problem because most threads here are about European notebook models. so then come question from US. Toshiba Europe and Toshiba US don't work together and every of them is responsible for own models and offer support for country specific notebook models.
So here in Europe Toshiba has for most models offered two BIOSes. One was already on the Vista delivered notebooks. On download page Toshiba has offered BIOS for WXP. in most cases it was version 5.xx and this BIOS was designed to support Toshiba specific tools and utilities. For example, full FN keys functionality was available with this WXP BIOS only.
So if someone of you have US notebook model they should see how to find the solution with Toshiba US or US forum under http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?webtag=ws-laptop&redirCnt=1
Bye and good luck!

Toshiba Satellite C55-B5201 with Windows 8.1 64bit No USB Ports Work

I have had nothing but problems with USB ports on this laptop. I went from 3 USB ports all working fine, then 2, 1, and now none. Tried all the obvious from chipset drivers, restore points, even did a factory reset. The USB ports do not function regardless of whether I plug a mouse, printer, anything, into them. I have manually downloaded drivers, ran autodetects, and the OS acts like everything is fine. I find it hard to believe that all three ports have failed and believe it is either a windows or intel problem, but I dont know what else to try. Very frustrating since latop only 1 year old. Can anyone provide an answer to correct this problem. Thanks!

BSOD with my function key and hardware setup

I'm using Vista Ultimate 32 Bit with SP 2, I tested my memory and hardrive and there is no problem with it. If I disable my antivirus the function key works, if I enable my AV it causes the BSOD. It seems that there is a conflict with the Hardware setup and the TVAP issue. I have the latest ones, but it seems that Toshiba won't come out with new drivers to fix this problem. The only thing I can do now is disable my function key. But I don't know if there is anything I could do. Maybe modify the registry or something. I cannot remove my AV as well. I'm using both the Internet Security of it.

Tecra A3 Keyboard Function keys and Microsoft Comfort Keyboard

I have a Tecra A3 and are using it with a Microsoft Comfort keyboard. The problem is that ever since the keyboard drivers have been installed the function keys (i.e. Fn + F2 to change power mode) now carry out additional funcitons i.e Fn + F2 also brings up the My Pictures folder. The strangest on is turning the wirelss network card on or off with the switch on the front of the notebook. This has the additional effect of loading an extra copy of MS Outlook each time it is swithed.
I have the latest version of Microsoft IntelliType Pro (version 5.20.412.0)
Any idea on how to solve this?

Hi
Sorry but you have not explained do you have this problem now using notebook keyboard or external one.
If the problem persists using an external one I think that you can not use Toshiba FN+FX key combinations. Every external keyboard is specific one and in my opinion you should check users manuals and check also all additional functions. I am also pretty sure that you are able to configure some special keys on your own.
The issue with WLAN switcher is very strange. Try to remove Microsoft specific software and check if the functionality is like before.

Satellite C55-A-1N1 and Windows 8 - i5 is not working

I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite laptop and it was working completely fine for the first two months. I used to shut it down using the power down option and everything was fine. Then, three days ago, it was taking extra long to power down. Normally it took about 2 minutes; this time it had gone 1 hour and it was still in the process of shutting down.
I was frustrated and held the power button down until the screen went dark and the laptop went off. The next day, I turned it on and it loaded up fine, however once it reaches the Windows 8 page, the screen turns blue and as if it refreshes itself and returns back the homepage. This happens every three seconds making it impossible to open any applications. I have checked if any buttons are pressed down and there aren't any that are and the laptop is fully charged. I have assignments due in very soon and getting work down is near impossible at the moment.
Any help will be appreciated greatly.
Thanks.

I don't know what is wrong there but what you can try is to reinstall original recovery image using HDD recovery option.
Instructions about repair and recovery you can find on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm
Have you may be created recovery media (DVD or USB)?

Satellite A300 Function keys drop down menu not displaying

Hey guys,
i think when i was deleting a whole heap of programs i may have deleted something i shouldn't have by accident. When i press and hold the Fn Key and then press one of the function keys (F1-F12), the computer no longer displays the drop down blue menu that it used to. The function key still works but i can no longer see what function i have selected. (i.e. turn blue tooth on/off or see which monitor i am selecting) The light still illuminates on the key board to indicate that i have pressed the function key it is just the drop down menu no longer appears.
Any help you can give would be great.

Hmm thanks for that the problem is that during the deletion of all the programs i also did a clean and removed all my restore points as well, will this stop me from restoring the OS or can i still do this, also not sure if i can install VAP. given i didn't look for or delete the previous one (may be the problem) but before i came to the forums here i found and tried to install the new VAP and it couldn't find the files required for it and shut itself down.
Thanks for replying i will see what i can do.
