A useful software for Toshiba laptop owners that helps them enable to features of the key combinations including the special Fn key

Toshiba Hotkey Utility addresses Toshiba laptop owners that may have reinstalled the operating system on their computer and want to take full advantage of the provided hotkeys.

Toshiba is not the first nor the last computer manufacturer to deliver its units with embedded hotkeys and their functionality relies on software such as the Toshiba Hotkey Utility. Almost every single command that you access through these keys uses the special Fn (Function) key.

This particular meta-modifier key allows for compact layouts of laptop keyboards by providing another layer of different altogether keys to be used as soon as the system detects that it is pressed. You can generally make acquaintance of these specific keys by looking for blue symbols drawn on some of the unit keys.

By default, the hotkey combination for Toshiba laptops allows you to quickly and easily mute or unmute the speakers by pressing the Fn and Esc (escape) keys, while the Fn+F1 combination helps you rapidly lock your computer. Moreover, the Fn+F2 command displays the power saver options, the Fn+F3 sends the Instant Standby command, and Fn+F4 prepares and puts the PC in hibernation.

Furthermore, the next key combinations for the F5 key lets you cycle through your display options, the one with F6 reduces the brightness while the next one increases it. Fn+F8 turns the wireless controller on and off, Fn+F9 works the same for the mousepad, Fn+F10 is just like the last two but for the arrow keys, and the last two manage the number pad, respectively the zoom control.

Unless you have never used and still do not plan on using the Fn-enabled key combinations, Toshiba Hotkey Utility is a must for each and every Toshiba laptop owner. If you happen to uninstall this application or just need it for any other reason, here is the place to grab it from.

Toshiba Value Added Package

Review

Free Download

This package installs a range of important utilities to help you make use of all the hidden technology under the hood of your Toshiba laptop

Toshiba Value Added Package addresses Toshiba laptop owners that want to take full advantage of the proprietary technologies the company has to offer through their products.

While your notebook really can live without Toshiba Value Added Package, it is recommendable to install it if you laptop model supports it or keep it if it came bundled alongside other software from Toshiba.

While not being in the top 100 best brands in the world right now, Toshiba still produces high-quality products and, although defeated by the Blu-ray back in 2008 and dropping the HD-DVD project, had its share or technology development over the years.

Considered by many users as being bloatware, bundled software by computer brands is sometimes (pretty rarely) actually helpful. Toshiba Value Added Package does fit this category by introducing the support for other interesting applications, as well as the ones it packs.

Toshiba Value Added Package consists of the Toshiba Common driver that comes as a bridge between software and the BIOS of the computer, the eco Utility that expands the array of power control management possibilities, the HWSetup which you can find very helpful due to its integrated features, the Password Utility, the Flash Cards for additional key functionality as well as the PC Diagnostic Tool.

All in all, Toshiba Value Added Package is a software suite that you can really enjoy or that you want to uninstall as you just do not need all those applications and the technology they help you make use of. It really is up to you if Toshiba Value Added Package proves to be your cup of tea or not.

HARD DRIVE IMPACT SENSOR

Living the mobile life is great. Until the unexpected happens. One fall off a table, one sharp jolt on a cramped cross-country flight or crowded classroom and all your precious files, media and other data stored on your laptop could be in jeopardy. Fortunately, Toshiba has you covered.

Get the drop on unexpected falls

You can thank Toshiba innovation for your first line of defense against unforeseen knocks, dings and drops. It’s called the Hard Drive Impact Sensor―a complex system of hardware and software designed to detect sudden movements (as when your laptop starts to fall off the table) and «park» the heads of your hard drive before damage occurs. It works faster than you can blink to help protect your laptop and all-important data.

Dial in just the protection you need

Because everyone uses a laptop differently, we made sure you can customize the Hard Drive Impact Sensor to suit your situation. Safely docking your laptop on a desk for awhile? It’s okay to «tune» the sensor to its lowest sensitivity level. Taking your laptop around town? Putting it on a school desk or dining table? Better crank up the setting to help keep the unexpected from ruining your work.

For information on changine Hard Drive Impact Sensor settings, go to HDD PROTECTION.

HDD PROTECTION

Using the acceleration sensor built in the PC, HDD Protection detects vibration, shocks and similar signs in the PC, and automatically moves the HDD head to a safe position to reduce the risk of damage that could be caused by head-to-disk contact.

Toshiba’s intuitive Face Tracking technology then taps into the laptop’s built-in webcam to further perfect the projection of the image by reacting to the motion and position of the viewer, delivering a broad viewing zone from which to view 3D content. The end result for consumers is the ability to view and enjoy real 3D, no glasses needed.

GYROSCOPE

Most smart devices including tablets and laptops are equipped with an accelerometer and gyroscope. Accelerometers measure linear motion AND gravity at the same time. The gyroscope measures rotational motion, not linear acceleration. If you were to slowly turn your body, the accelerometer would not catch it. However, the gyroscope could tell you exactly how far you turned and where you turned, from your initial position. What’s more, the gyroscope is immune to the effect of gravity, so exact changes can be read directly regardless of position. In a word, the gyroscope fits the way the human body works.

When installed in a tablet or laptop, the gyroscope can assist with the following features:

4G WiMAX

Being wired to wireless hotspots is over – thanks to new Toshiba advancements like the 4G WiMAX ready laptops (available in select Satellite® models) powered by Intel® Core™ processor technology. It extends your freedom well beyond Wi-Fi because 4G WiMAX lets you take your home internet experience with you when you leave your home.

Blazing fast mobile internet™

Mobile internet powered by 4G WiMAX technology is 4 times faster1 than the internet you get on a 3G network. 4G allows you to get the same internet experience on-the-go as you do at home. So you can always stay connected to your email, find friends on your favorite social media sites while at the soccer fields, catch up on work from a café or stream last night’s TV show on the bus. With 4G WiMAX, you get internet over areas much, much larger than Wi-Fi. We’re talking miles, not feet. So, forget about finding a hotspot… get 4G WiMAX which is like a hotspot the size of a city. Service available from CLEAR, Sprint and Time Warner Cable.

What Toshiba and 4G WiMAX do for you

Put you in touch from point to point

Use your Toshiba notebook to e-mail, IM and chat live with family and friends, or update your social networking sites. On the run? 4G WiMAX makes sure you’re always around.

Bring fun along for the ride

Dive into multi-player 3D games. Post videos and pictures. Find the nearest restaurant. Or stream movies and radio. With 4G WiMAX, entertainment is never off the menu, even when you’re on the move.

Keep you working while you’re out

Pause and videoconference in a park. Grab important files off your network while carpooling. Or send that proposal from the train. 4G WiMAX means you’re never “out of pocket.”

Prepare you for what’s next

Exciting new location-based services and apps are just around the corner. And your 4G WiMAX-equipped Toshiba PC can put you at the head of the line.

Why you won’t say goodbye to Wi-Fi®

Another benefit of 4G WiMAX is that it works with (not instead of) Wi-Fi® networks, broadening coverage over a far greater area and “filling in the gaps” between hotspots. Together, 4G WiMAX and Wi-Fi® on your Toshiba PC make sure you have the best coverage available. So you can always connect with the people, places and content that enrich your mobile life.
