If Something Goes Wrong

If you need further assistance

If you are attempting to charge a device without an AC adaptor 
connected to the computer, the computer's battery power may 
be below the limit specified in the TOSHIBA Sleep utility or 
the battery may be depleted. Lower the limit in Sleep and 
Charge to enable charging at the current battery power level, or, 
if battery power is running low or is depleted, connect the AC 
adaptor to your computer.

The USB Sleep and Charge function may not work with certain 
external devices even if they are compliant with the USB 
specification. In those cases, power on the computer to charge 
the device or use a different charging device.

The “USB Wakeup function” does not work.

When the “USB Sleep and Charge function” is set to Enabled 
the “USB Wakeup function” does not work for ports that 
support the “USB Sleep and Charge function.” In that case, use 
a USB port that does not have the “USB Sleep and Charge 
function”-compatible icon (

), if you have a non-Sleep and 

Charge USB port available or disable the “USB Sleep and 
Charge function.” For more information, see 

“Sleep and 

Charge” on page 102

.

If you have followed the recommendations in this chapter and are
