My keyboard and my external buttons no longer work.

I guess it's probably a hardware problem and I'll have them repaired, but I am informed anyway.
Last night, suddenly my keyboard, trackpad and all my external buttons no longer work. Only my touch screen works, but no back button, a BlackBerry is not very useful.
It may be software, but I updated yesterday the operating system. But I find it strange that all the external buttons do not work together.
What could be the problem. If I have to go to the workshop, I want to know as much as possible.
Thanks !
BlackBerry 9800

Evolution, keyboard work again, but screen close often (lock button), probably humidity

My ipod touch 4th generation keeps lagging, all the apps crash, nothing will update and my home button no longer works?

my ipod touch will not stop crashing, its pretty much un usable now, is it worth resetting to default settings and clearing everything. Its about two years old and the screens been smashed twice and replaced, the home button no longer works, and now its slow and basically nothing even opens or updates. is it the end of my ipods life now ahah.

My iPhone apps keep crashing and my sleep button no longer works

So my apps keep crashing when I try to open them; everything from games to my email. My sleep/power button no longer works so I can't even shut it down to restart it. I don't know if I should just let the battery die and hope that by rebooting it will work again? Doesn't really make sense why they won't open anymore.

My a, q, 1, delete, and volume control buttons no longer work

I'm currently on a different computer, but on my Macbook the 'a' 'q' '1' 'delete' and the buttons to make the volume louder and softer no longer work. its only those six, but for obvious reasons i need them fixed.
i had spilled some milk on it about a day or two ago, but its been working since then, like all this day and i am not sure why it would just stop.
i'm assuming i'll need to go to the mac store but any ideas on why this might have happened? or what will have to be done to get it fixed?

The keyboard and the top of the case are one unit which means you're also replacing the trackpad so it isn't going to be inexpensive. Dunno what Apple will charge you for the parts + labor but expect to spend over $200. OTOH, if you Google *MacBook keyboard replacement* you'll find other repair options including some video showing how to do the repair yourself and sources for spare parts.

Volume and Off/On buttons no longer working

A couple of months ago my volume button (on side of phone) quit working now my off/on button no longer functions. Does anyone know of a fix?

After updating to the new iTunes, my Play/Pause(f8), Forwad(f9) and Rewind(f7) buttons no longer work (Macbook Pro 13")

Hi,
I recently upgraded to OSX Yosmite and the new iTunes 12.
After upgrading, iTunes no longer responds to the Play/Pause, Forward & Rewind buttons on my keyboard.
I am using iTunes on a Macbook Pro 13" (non-retina version).
Any help to get these buttons to work again would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Rawbex
Edit: I'm also currently re-installing iTunes on my Mac to see if that solves any of the problems I'm experiencing. This includes another issue that has appeared, where Google Play Music no longer recognizes iTunes. (Although, this separate issue will probably have to be solved by Google, not Apple).
Edit 2: Unfortunately, reinstalling iTunes did not solve or fix anything.

Hi,
I Found this post that helped me solve the same problem,
I has to do with Google Music taking over the same function keys. I uninstalled Google Music from Chrome, and now the function buttons function.
Media key: Play, Rewind and forward not working with iTunes anymore. Other keys work normally.

What can you do if your home button, lock button and assistive touch button no longer work?

My lock button stopped working so i activated the assisted touch, then all of a sudden my assisted touch stopped working and so did my home button. The screenshot and gestures works on the assisted touch but if i press for it to lock or go back to home it does not work. Also if i hold my home button i can get the voice control up, but it just doesn't go back to my home screen. Is there a way to fix this?

Even if they don't seem to work, this will probably work:
hold the HomeButton and the PowerButton pressed at the same time, keep holding, ignore everything on the screen, keep holding, when you see the white Apple logo let go and wait until the iPhone has started completely.

Since bundle 2921 some of my buttons no longer work

I updated phone to version 6 bundle 2921 over the weekend and now the following buttons no longer work, 'S,G,H,L,W' and my scroll button no longer works either. These speed dials no longer work (speed dials to other letters are fine.)
I have not dropped it, got it wet or let the battery run out. I figure it is a software issue as I didn't have any of these issues before the update. Also, when I do a battery pull, the buttons work for a short time (1 minute) and then no longer work.
Is there an update to the update or can I roll back to my previous version?
thanks

Hello,
The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
2) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:bboftwareesktopSoftware&lpos=us:bboftware
3) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
4) If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML (there will be at least one, perhaps 2)
5) Launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC. If, during the process, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
Don't forget to backup.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
KB19915How to perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software

My lock button no longer works on my ipod touch and now i have all kinds of problems with it freezing and kicking me out of apps. Is there any way to get this fixed and were would i go to get it fixed?

Please Help!!!! I have an ipod touch 4th gen. and since the last update the lock button no longer works, this has caused it to have a lot of problems now like freezing all the time, kicking me out of almost all my apps, some times even when if locks on its own its not locked and buttons with be pushed in my pocket, and this causes the battiery to die fast. I really love my ipod and would like to just get it fix if possible for a reasonable about of money. Anyone know of a place I can get it fixed in Ft Lauderdale Fl area or is there something I can do?

Have you tried:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

Since updating to 3.6.15 today, back button no longer works and FF doesn't remember URLs

Since updating to 3.6.15 today, back button no longer works and FF doesn't remember URLs. Not just that memory of previous URLs got wiped out, it still doesn't remember the ones I've typed in since I updated. And No back button, it's really hard to use.
I went thru all the settings and could not find a way to fix this problem. What is up? I've never had this happen in any version of IE, FF, or Chrome.
Can I get back previous version? Until then, it's Chrome and IE for me.
I'll be happy to delete any plug-ins if it will make this problem go away.
THANKS in advance!

Thanks. This didn't solve te problem but it seemed to have solved itself. all of a sudden it started working properly, without me even closing FF and starting it up again. Thanks Cor-el, if it happens again I'll try your solution.

The back button no longer works. I have disabled all add-ons, rebooted & reset the defaults for the browser and nothing has changed. This happens on all webpages.How do I get the back button to light up again?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
*Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

see -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
which explains how to completely exit (quit) your Mozilla application
Try closing Firefox completely
*Close Firefox properly '''File > Exit''', not with the "X" which just closes the window.
*Use the Windows Task Manager "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is not running and also that the plugin-container.exe is not running.
If that does not work, try restarting the system.
If still no luck try restoring bookmarks from last backup, or better create your own .json backup and restore from that.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Creating_bookmark_backups
*''If you had to go this far, please provide feedback if restoring bookmarks alone fixed the problem. I think I may have done that once with success, but never see that suggested -- I'd try most anything to not lose history or bookmarks. But then I could restore files from my profile and restore latest bookmarks backup from current profile.''
The following will result in complete loss of history if it comes down to deleting places.sqlite, so rename files rather than deleting. With Firefox down.
Of course you have backups of your profile you could replace rename and
replace those files instead.

Hey skyshade13,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines how to restore a previous iTunes library should there be no content after updating. While the article does not speak specifically to your symptoms, attempting the steps by utilizing the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder may resolve your issue.
No content shows up in iTunes after updating
