tv suddenly won't show vcr image or antenna channels

I received this large Toshiba for free several years ago, so I don't know the model. It has worked fine for a while in this setup: DVD player hooked up to S-video, VCR hooked up through RF cables from antenna, to tv, and the yellow RCA cable, as well as audio. (DVD player audio just went to an old stereo receiver and speakers.) Suddenly, one day, there was a small pop and the screen just showed noise. I can still watch dvd's, but the tv won't show the vcr tapes, or regular channels via antenna.

cleaning inside projection tv

I want to clean the inside of my tv's mirrors and screen. My picture is getting very muted due to dust and such. I have tried to find the manual to do this but to no avail. I also want to know if I can use canned air to help blow out dust in it. Basically I need to find a step by step instruction so I don't manage to mess it all up. The tv is a 49in. Sony.   Thank-you in advance julieg290

Samsung TV turning off by itself

I have a samsung tv that is about 2 years old.  About 2 months ago it randomly started shutting itself off.  The only way to get it to come back on is to unplug and replug the set.  It seems as though it's been shutting itself off much more frequently.  When it started it was about once every couple of days, not it does it at least once a day.  I've searched the internet and cannot find anything on this subject.

Toshiba 42H82, No Color

Today while watching TV, I started to notice that the colors looked rather dull. I left the room for a moment and when I returned the color was completely gone, just black and white picture. Would anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Appreciate any replys.

Toshiba 32A50- No picture

I have a Toshiba model 32A50 that start out with a problem of horizontal line when the TV was first turned on.  After a few moments the TV went back to normal.  The problem went on for two weeks and then the picture went out first and later the audio also went out.  Is any one known what circuits need to be replaced? Thanks in advance for the help
