Media Buttons not working

Hi,
I used to use ubuntu and my laptop's media buttons (rewind/prev, next, play/pause and stop) worked, and i could register them as keyboard shortcuts.  However, in Arch they don't.  I loaded up the ubuntu live cd, copied the entire X11 folder and, after backing up my own, copied that over.  this didn't work.  Where else would the information regarding my keyboard mapping be in ubuntu, or have i missed a file?  It's a satellite a50 if anyone needs to know, and i have not upgraded to the latest kernel, im 1 behind.
thanks,
Michael

I've had a brief go at keytouch before, but i tried it again
I tested every single device, regardless of how relevant it looked; nothing.  Still no input.
  still need help on this one

  • SOLVED!--Media Buttons not working and TVAP will NOT uninstall

    I have  a A660D-STNX2 running WIN 7 sp 1.
    The media buttons have stopped working and all threads concerning this have one reinstalling TVAP.  Trying that has not changed functionality.   I believe it is because I cannot uninstall TVAP.  Uninstall gives a an immediate error of RegDBGetItem failed (1) . Which I think means the registry does not contain the item to be removed.
    Any ideas will be appreciated.
    UPDATE!!
    Was able to restore backup of registry,  then could uninstall TVAP.  Installed updated TVAP (from web site) and buttons were assigned wrong,  went back to orginal TVAP from Toshiba Application Installer ({start}-{my toshiba}-{tai})
    All is well now.

    Hi mate,
    Wow, thats really good work! :)
    Im pretty sure that this would be interesting and very useful for other Qosmio X305-708 owner!!!

  • MBA 13" media buttons not working with iTunes

    I just got my mba 13" and everything is great, but for some reason the media buttons do not work with itunes. I've tried them with vlc and other applications and they work fine. Any ideas how I can fix this?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    No, it didn't work fine with VLC. Whenever I pressed "play/pause", it'll trigger iTune and the media buttons become the controller for both applications at the same time.
    What the %^&*..
    Cheers.

  • Qosmio X305-708 - Solved: Media Buttons not working after BIOS update

    I had this problem so I thought I would share in case anyone else encountered the same problem.
    Basically after installing BIOS 1.70 (in Windows 7 64bit) on my Qosmio X305-708, the media buttons remains on partially, as in they were dim, and they didn't work at all. The light even remained on when the computer was off (strangely only when plugged in). To solve this problem I reinstalled the BIOS through a boot disk (USB key), since then its been fine. Must of been a corrupt install I suppose.

  • Apple wireless keyboard media buttons not working despite software update

    Hi there,
    Yesterday I purchased an Apple wireless keyboard for use with my Mac Pro (10.5.8), and everything is working well except the top row of multimedia buttons (though the escape and eject keys do work). I downloaded and installed the Wireless Keyboard Update 2.0. After re-starting, the problem remained. As per Apple's support page suggestions, I opened the keyboard viewer and noticed that the viewer still shows the old usb keyboard setup--ie, shows the number pad. (Note that the usb keyboard is no longer plugged in). In the Input Menu for the keyboard, I've selected "US" rather than "US extended", and this doesn't help the problem either. Suggestions are appreciated!

    The new keyboards require 10.6.8 or later to map the function keys correctly.

  • Media keyboard button not working

    I have Toshiba Value added package but yet the media player button (between internet and play) isnt working and i dont know why and also the flash cards stopped appearing for some reason. What software do i need to let them working again?

    I have a Toshiba A100-530 and play, pause, forward and rewind buttons don't work. I've tried "TOSHIBA Controls" but only appears "Internet button" and "CD/DVD button", and those buttons work well.
    Media buttons neither work in Windows Media Player nor in Musicmatch Jukebox but several days ago they worked in both players. Any idea to solve this problem?
    I hope somebody can help me, thanks.

    thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
    maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

  • Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

    Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
    Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
    I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

    I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.

  • My ipad2 media volume not working, volume bar not showing

    My ipad2 media volume not working, volume bar not showing

    here are my similar symptons:
    in Settings the volume slider bar when moved plays a sound out of the speaker
    when you double press home button, and slide over to the brightness and volume slider bars, the volume slider is completely gone.
    when you plug in headphones it works fine, volume rocker controls volume perfectly.
    when you press volume rocker without headphones, nothing happens, or a blank "sound effects" icon displays.
    I sent my Ipad2 to Apple for this under warranty.  They said there are some small scratches on the side of it. 
    It lives in a heavy duty case, but the exposed area has been knicked some how.    The little divots in the metal on the side mean that "impact" must have broken it. 
    Forget the fact that it spontaneously started happening and that the speakers and headphones both work at various times, and the volume rocker works, but iOS 5.1.1 apps can't send sound out the speaker, but the volume settings in the sound do send out sound..
    so they refused to look at it or repair it under the warranty.   I was a day away from buying yet another apply device in our family that already has a couple iPod Touches and 2 iPads.  I think I'll buy a droid now.

    HELP

    Try:
    - 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 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.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    When iOS 6.1 comes out I would update.

  • Logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014

    logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014 winds 8.1. Is this a common problem?
    I have updated the latest drivers and have a few buttons programmed with keyboard shortcuts that used to work in previous versions of Photoshop but don't work now.
    Scrolling with mouse in bridge stopped working in cc butI see it is now working.
    any ideas?

    Many Photoshop extensions are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014 for Adobe removed support for Flash Panels in CC 2014. Many extensions panels are flash based.  Check with the developer to see if their blendmein extension works with CC 2014.
    Adobe does not maintain Photoshop so it backward compatible with prior versions of Photoshop.  This brakes things like action scripts plugins extensions etc. Keep old version of Photoshop installed....

  • Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5

    Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5.Please help!!!!!!!!

    It seems that settings of mail accounts have something to do with it. I've delete my gmail account and am now using Microsoft Exchange. It seems better, yet not perfect. The issue is definitely due to OS 4.3.1
    Apple answer is - no answer. It is a shame that the quality of their products, in terms of design and concept, is not match by a care for customers. It is not normal that I, as a customer, have to spend hours reading Apple Discussions forum to try to understand what the problem is. A little more respect for a customer that spend big $$$ buying their products wouldn't hurt.

    iphone 4: Home Button Not Working. The home button only works when it is connected to iTunes, once i disconnet it does not work, i have tried a restore to factory settings but it still is not working. Any suggestions?

    Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.
    Regards.
