USB media docking station won't wake up pc

using the USB media docking station with Toshiba Satellite laptop. If it goes into sleep mode for more than an hour, I need to open the laptop lid in order to wake up the PC. With my old HP laptop, I could simply move my external mouse or press any key on my external keyboard to wake it up

it could be that the speakers that is having the issue. Does your coworker's laptop work with the speakers when plugged directly into the laptop?
I have encountered this problem before, when the cable was actually leaking current back through the cable that connects to the headphone port (3.5 mm jack).

HP FQ834UT USB Universal Docking Station software won't work on my HP laptop with Windows 7 64 bit

I am using Windows 7 and when i went to load software for my docking station, HP FQ834UT USB Universal Docking Station, it said it couldn't use the driver. Is there a software upgrade to allow this driver to work on a HP laptop with Windows 7 64 bit operating system?

I have the same issue - I have it installed on my Windows 7 64-bit machine and although it is running, it doesn't work. I am sitting here in Starbucks, which has a Verizon Wifi hotspot (actually Boingo - which is what Verizon Wi-Fi uses) and the "Connect" box does not appear. I had the same issue at an airport recently. It's one of the worse pieces of software I have had the misfortune to use. When it fails to connect, it causes the Wifi connection to drop (incompatibility with Lenovo Access Connections, maybe). I don't think that Verizon understands the meaning of "QA" and "Software Testing".

Trouble with multi-media docking station

I have used my multi-media docking station every night since I got the phone in September. Last night I put my phone in and went to sleep only to wake up at 5 and realize that its not charging.
I took the phone off and put it back on and it still won't charge. After several tries I got up and got my usb charger and my phone charges fine on it.
Any ideas??
Thanks

Did you try taking the plug out of the back of the docking station and then reinserting it. Maybe it was knocked loose.

Xb4 Notebook Media Docking Station Compatibility?

I am in the market for a new laptop. I bought and have loved using the HP xb4 Notebook Media Docking Station. I would like to buy a new HP laptop that will allow me to continue using the docking station.
What new HP laptops are compatible with the HP xb4 Notebook Media Docking Station?

Hi,
The good news is, it compatible with all laptops which have USB 2.0 ports (you can use USB 3.0 port but won't get USB 3.0 speed):

My Sony icf-cs15ip docking station won't play music ,

My Sony ICF-CS15iP docking station won't play music from my iPhone 4s which is on iOS 7 but it will play my music from my old iPod touch, can anyone help me with a fix or let me know if I'll just have to get a new docking station, thanks in advance!

@Gscott1979, I had the same problem with both my ICF-CS15iP docking stations I have and was ready to throw them out the window.
Finally after almost 2 years using them just as a charging station I found the solution that worked for me.
And the solution could not be any simpler........ use the reset button on the bottom of the docking station. It is a small hole between the battery latch and the screw next to it. Just a paperclip will do.

Docked T500 won't wake up

When I leave my new T500 docked and it goes into Standby, it won't wake up from the docking station. I can wake it by opening the laptop, but it no longer recognize the docking station monitors, kb, or mouse. I have to restart the computer to be able to use it on the docking station again.
Once it is open from the laptop, items that were on the second monitor that is no longer connected are not visible. Some new programs open up to that monitor and can't be accessed.
The monitor problem seems to be a different problem since some programs will still open on the unconncted monitor after restarting even though the monitor is grayed out of the Display Properties. I never had the problem of programs opening on an unconnected monitor on my old laptops that had a docking station.
How do I make the T500 not forget about the docking station?

Did you find a solution to this. I have been experiencing the same problem with a T500 and it is getting to be quite annoying. Any help would be great.

Syncing Classic with USB killed docking station for my Nano

I have two libraries in Itunes, one for music and one for books. I use my Nano for music. After I organized a second library for books, I bought a Classic. It uses a USB cable. After my first hookup of the Classic, syncing the book library. The firewire docking station for my Nano no longer will connect that Ipod to Itunes. I can charge, but not sync. Is this a new feature from Apple or does Itune now only recognize Ipod thru the USB port? I can sync the Nano with USB, but I like the docking station

I do not think that your USB docking station is faulty. I use it all the time.
What killed my ipods (resulting in exactly your problem) was the update to firmware 1.1.2. I am on my fifth !! ipod classic (courtesy of technical support/ genius bar at the apple store) as they are not as solid as the older models and
may go wrong quicker, despite much more enhanced functions. Touch wood mine is working fine now.
In the mean time, you could try a hard/factory reset of your ipod:
apple doc: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1339
Interesting may also be "hidden" ipod commands:

Hope you can sort it.

Usb expansion dock station with arch

Hi guys,
I'm the owner of a dell xps m1330 and i was wondering to buy the kingston exapsion dock station with the video out. It is connected to the laptop using a usb cable.
I know it works with winzozz obviously, but i don't know anything about its support with linux.
Is there any problem to transmit video out through usb to the dock and then to the external video lcd?
thanks in advance

What kind of video card do you have?
Just from my Dell XPS m1530, I have a nvidia card and within "System >> Preferences >> NVIDIA Server Settings", I am able to plug in a VGA cable on the side and have it recognize it almost instantly. I know tried it on a projector but still, it that worked, I would say you should be ok with the monitor part.

Laptop docking station

Hi
Please advise if I can get a laptop docking station for my HP Pavilion G6-1386?

Hi,
The only choice which you have is HP USB Media Port Replicator or HP USB Media Docking Station (the same replicator + stand + speakers system).

Need expansion port 3 docking station for dv6-1211ax for home use .... suggestions please ...

i have a dv6-1211ax laptop and planning to get a hp expansion port 3 based docking station for home use ... can anyone suggest or comment on how they really perform ..

I have a pair of HP XB4 Notebook Media Docking Stations being used on two DV7s. I think they work quite well, unlike the current docking stations they use the expansion port 3 and you can power both the laptop and the docking stations from a single power supply. Speaker sound especially subwoofer is much better than the laptops (these are 2009 and 2010 model DV7s so they have the Altec Lansing speakers (as does the docking station) vs. the 2011 laptop Beats Audio.
I also like the way the docking station raises the laptop 6-8 inches above desk level.
Do make sure your system is using the expansion port 3 though since at least some of the 2011 systems no longer have the expansion port (the connection from the station to the laptop is via USB 2.0 hopefully at some time the new docking stations will be updated to use USB 3.0) along with the laptops.
For a laptop that is being used a Desktop replacement I would highly recommend the XB4
p.s since HP doesn't sell them anymore you may have to go to Ebay, Amazon or a wholeseller)

Why did my Bose Docking Station stop playing my iPod Touch?

Yesterday my iPods both Touch and the oldMy Bose Docking Station won't play my iPod Touch and the much older version with the click wheel both played when placed my my Bose Docking Station. Today neither one will play. Any ideas?

- Try resetting the Bose dock
- Inspect the dock connectors on the iPod and the dock for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset the Classic. I do not know how to do that.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

No sound from xb4 Docking Station

Using the HP Entertainment PC with the xb4 Media Docking Station. Can not get the mute button to turn off on the docking station. It will control the notebook volume and mute buttons, but will not turn it off on the station. The notebook sounds great until it is plugged into the station, and it becomes silent. No sound coming from the speakers at all. Purchased the entire package 4 months ago, talked with hp tech. support for several hours, and just received the third docking station today yet I'm still having the same problem. The second docking station worked great for about 2 months, then the computer was disconnected and once the computer was reconnected the problem emerged. The first and third stations had the problem from the first connection. The only thing plugged into the station is the power adapter.
Please if anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated!!

I do suffer the same pain, i just received the (XB4) replacement from Hp, because I've been having the same problem, and after hours with tech support finally they agree to send it!!! and guess what...... the same old history, no sound come out, the funny thing is that my wife has one xb4 too, and we had been doing all kind of trouble shooting tests and my wife's docking st. works perfect, now I can't express my how far my frustration has reached.
Anyway I do recommend to send your Docking Station + Replacement Docking Station and get your Money back or exchange it for some other product, because I really and strongly believe that my time is more important and valuable than dealing with this kind of issues where i paid for a quality product and it results not to be, and/plus uses my time in order to figure out how to fix it (i don't think so!!!).
This is a Bad one Hp, i like your products, but this one really got me out my nerves.
Have a nice day, and hope to hear something helpful from HP soon

I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station.

I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit. Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
