Connecting a new keyboard to a notebook

Several keys on my HP 71-340US Notebook ave locked up so I purchased a new keyboard. How do I replace the old keyboard with the new one? Is there a site online that shows how to do it? Should I take it to a computer store and have them do it or try it myself? Help!!!

Hi,
I can't find HP 71-something but HP G71-something. The following manual is for G71. It will show you how to replace the keyboard (from page #60). Hope you bought the right one too:

If you have records that show that you've taken your MacBook Pro in for a year to fix the machine, I would escalate the problem to Apple Customer Relations - unfortunately I don't have a number for Spain.
It would only seem logical to me that if you've been trying to have the machine repaired during the time that the 'recall' was in effect that you should be eligible for a new logic board. But only customer relations will be able to make that call.
Good luck - take the issue as high up the food chain as you can and see what happens.

How can i connect a Wireless Keyboard and a Trust mouse with a brand new Mac mini?

How can i connect a Wireless Keyboard and a Trust mouse to a brand new Mac mini?

Go to the Bluetooth icon on the menu bar and select "Set Up Bluetooth Device". Follow the wizard.
Alternatively, if you haven't yet unboxed and setup the Mini, you can pair the keyboard to the Mini (and possibly the mouse). However, I would set up with a USB keyboard and mouse and pair the Bluetooth devices afterwards.

Wireless apple keyboard will not pair/connect to new mac mini

So, I cannot complete setup and use the computer. The keyboard IS discoverable by my macbook air.

Same with my new mac mini.
Got it brand new via the online shop.
Happy to start with the new mac i really got dissapointed by the fact that it`s impossible to pair the wireless keyboard unless you first connect a USB keyboard to the mac mini and start the configuration.
THIS ***** !!!
No hint at all from apple that you first have to connect the USB keyboard.
I had to borrowed a USB keyboard from my neighbour :-((
After setting things up it was no problem at all to establish the BT connection with the keyboard.
Works fine now.

Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it works automatically with either macbook pro or iPad depending on which is turned on or do I have to go through the delete one and re-pair the other process every time?

Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it automatically connects to whichever previously paired device is turned on?

Broken keyboard on Satellite notebook

When I press the space bar a 4 will pop up.
It is incredibly annoying.
Is this a virus or a broken keyboard? If you can please tell me how to get this fixed.

Hi shaunbailey101,
One thing would be important: What Satellite notebook you have exactly?
At the moment its not easy to say what is causing this problem but you should connect an external keyboard. If this works properly, your internal keyboard is faulty. In this case you need a new one because there are no single keys to exchange it.
If you contact the authorized service provider, they can order a new keyboard for you. :)

10.6.8 Bluetooth will not connect to Apple keyboard

I just upgraded to 10.6.8 and my Apple keyboard, which came with the iMac, can't be recognized by the iMac. My old bluetooth keyboard from my old G5 iMac is recognized and works OK. The little green light on the upper left side of the keyboard just keeps blinking. In the keyboard setup it just keeps searching for the keyboard. Anyone have any ideas to get the new keyboard to connect?

Yes. It's a golden rule to never underestimate the power of coincidence, always expect the unexpected, and that whatever is extremely unlikely will happen at some point.
That's stood me in good stead for 35+ years in IT, but I still kick myself sometimes for overlooking the cause of a simple problem.
Glad you're up & running and that all's well.

Where can I get a new keyboard for my Tecra A3 in the UK?

I spilt some water - damn! - a couple of days ago on my Tecra A3 and I think it is beyond fixing, though please correct me if I am wrong.
I haven't been cleaning it regularly and I think there was probably quite a bit of dust - and other foreign matter - under the keys and I think some dust has got, via the water, into the electronics connecting the keys to the white connecting tissue - I don't know what you call this - which links the keyboard to the rest of the machine.
Most of the keys aren't working, and some of them, whey they work, add in for free, for one tap, extra letters.
I removed the keyboard, and left it and the machine to dry and, when that didn't do the trick, dried the keyboard and surrounding parts thorougly - working delicately - and cleaned it using a tiny bit of alcohol and ear cotton wool cleaners. I also used a little air pressure producing machine to try to get rid of any dust. I think I did a fair job but It is still not working.
I think I will have to buy a new keyboard. Do you know where can I get a new keyboard A3 in the UK or a second hand keyboard that would be in perfectly good working order?
Thanking you in advance,
Conor Joyce

Hi
On the Toshiba website you can search for the nearest authorized service provider. They sell all original Toshiba spare parts. Call them and ask for a new keyboard, they can order a new one for you.
Here you can search for the nearest ASP:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Find an authorized service provider
Second hands you get from eBay for example but normally keyboards are not so expensive so I would buy a new one.

"Limited Connectivity" w/ new Vista

I just purchased a new notebook w/ vista and I don't have internet connection! I have 2 other notebooks w/ xp and they're working just fine with my wireless network. Wireless or wired, I can't get internet connection with my new vista. This is what I have: WRT54GS v6 Firmware 1.52.5

- make sure wireless mac filter is disabled , if it is enabled make sure mac address of wireless adapter is in the list ( if permit only )
- try removing you network settings ( under manage wireless networks ) and all possible networks that might be causing conflict , then restart afterwards
- reconnect to wireless network: if it would not connect , try hitting diagnose and repair, vista would give you possible diagnoses and solution
- make sure no static ip address are set on tcp/ipv4 for wireless adapter - if there is , make sure if is in the same settings with router ( same ip add.- range, dns, etc.. )
hope this helps! GBU

New Keyboard (usb hub question)

Aloha, before I buy the new keyboard, I would like someone with real world experience to tell me that the usb 2 hubs on the keyboard actually work, or is that just an Apple marketing ploy ? Will plugging in an iPod, or some other "power hungry" device really work? Mahalo in advance for any facts, info. JB

The webpage for the new keyboards contains the following regarding the wired keyboard:
"Two USB 2.0 ports provide high-speed connectivity for your iPod, Mighty Mouse, digital camera, and other USB-based electronic devices. Yes, we did think of everything."
I'm not sure what to make of this. I have a small external hardrive that worked initially with the keyboard ports, but it no longer works. The ports on a replacement keyboard that I received do not work either. The folks at Apple Care seem to think that many of these devices will not work with the keyboard, but they also seem to be surprised when I point out what the website says. It does sound like the marketing department needs to talk with the tech folks.
I'll try it with my wife's ipod, but it seems like the keyboards are not functioning they way they have been advertised to work.

Satellite Pro A10 - some keys not working with new keyboard

Hi all
I hope some1 can help with this
i have a Satellite Pro A10. The prob i have is a.b.n.and enter keys are not working and its a new keyboard
i fitted into my other A10 and all keys work so keyboard is fine.
All works ok with usb keyboard. Had motherboard out all seems ok.
Any help plz
chris....

Hi
Why do you think that the motherboard is ok?
Maybe its a keyboard controller issue
Did you check if the cable was connected properly?
In my opinion if you are 100% sure that the keyboard is ok then the issue must be related to the motherboard because there is no other part which is placed between the keyboard and mobo.
Bye

My ipad does not wanna work i bought a new keyboard magnets can it be the problem the magnets, my ipad does not wanna work i bought a new keyboard magnets can it be the problem the magnets

my ipad does not wanna work i bought a new keyboard magnets can it be the problem the magnets, my ipad does not wanna work i bought a new keyboard magnets can it be the problem the magnets. it was still working just before i test the magnet case
i allready try restart and nothing and in try to connect to itunes it does not pick up my ipad what can i do

How are you resetting the device? I presume you're doing something like this?
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button (on the top of the ipad) and Home button together for at least ten seconds until the Apple logo appears.
What happens after the device resets? Does the Apple logo appear to be replaced by the home screen? Does the iPad respond to any of the buttons or the screen at all?

Why do I have to keep re-connecting my wireless keyboard?

I have an older wireless keyboard, the acrylic with white keys, and i have to keep re-connecting the signal after long periods of rest. It switches to different symbols and just doesn't work right unless I shut it off and turn it back on again. Do I HAVE to but the new keyboard?

Hello:
Before you buy a new one, try resetting the PRAM and SMC. You might also make the KB a favorite.
