2014 X1 Carbon Adaptive Keyboard not working
Hi There,
I just tried my new x1 carbon 2014 a week ago, I was trying my adaptive keys and it worked accordingly the first time I tried the notebook.
After I did some installation with windows 8.1 update and lenovo update, I noticed that the adaptive keys is totally blank.
1. I did the adaptive keys setting but still not working at all.
2. I did the factory reset / reinstallion but still not working at all.
Can anyone help me regarding this matter? is it because the factory defect?
thx alot
did you get into the bios menu? if yes, and your touch strip still doesn't work then you have a hardware problem.

HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Keyboard not working
HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Keyboard not working
My Windows 8 - 64 bit laptop keyboard stopped working. I tried to uninstall and reinstall as explained in the support pages. but doesn't seem to work. Is it dead? what is the solution. Please help
Thank youHi,
While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right click the entry 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard' and select Uninstall.
Shutdown the notebook.
Then unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Note: If the keyboard doesn't work when trying to access or navigate the Bios Menu, then this is probably a hardware fault.

My mail forms created by muse 2014.0.1.30 do not work. PHP 5.4 is enabled by my hoster, so they should work. Can anyone help me, for these forms are crucial for my business. The forms confirm delivery, but the mails are not recieved. No spam filters enabled.
Meanwhile, I was able to narrow the problem down: PHP seems not to accept a re-directed mail address as sender of the mail in some cases. So, it has nothing to do with the mail form itself.Hi Ingo,
Please refer to this document, Troubleshooting Muse Form Widgets Used on Third-Party Servers
Last section, "I've uploaded my new Muse form, and tried submitting it in the browser, but I never receive an email with the form data. What's wrong?"

Installed Windows 8 on a late 2011 MacBook Air and was working fine now keyboard not working so cannot enter password? Caplocks key works but I am locked out on my own PC and cannot seem to get it to recognize built in keyboard,bluetooth,generic USB one.
Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps. -

My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation.
Installation went well but when I boot either with OSx or Win it always keeps Windows keyboard.
How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

When charging my Macbook Pro sometimes the indicator LED light doesn't come on at all. Everytime I checked when the LED isn't working the computer still charges, but I am not sure if when I leave it sometimes if it is charging correctly since the LED doesn't work periodically. I am also wondering if this is an issue with the adapter, rather then the actual computer port. If it is the computer port I don't feel comfortable with sending it out for repairs if its just a small issue. I guess what I am trying to see is if anyone else has experienced this issue. I would much rather go to the apple store and recieve a new adapter, and if the issue persists I can send it in for repairs. Please if anyone has experience with the same trouble I have had let me know. Thank you in advance.
-AndrewMay be the adapter is not working properly.
Take the MBP and MagSafe/Power Adapter to the Apple store for evaluation.
For:
The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.
Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Choose the appropriate method.

Keyboard not working correctly after updating to 8.1 64bit pro.
After I updated, everything seemed ok and then all of the sudden I rebooted and only the f1 – f12 row would work. I resorted to resorted to unplugging and removing the battery and it would work for a short amount of time. This has been reported on other laptops as well, see here.

USB Keyboard not working after running Monolingual
Okay, I'm not a Mac person and should have known that I was going to mess up my mother's iMac, but here it is -
In an attempt to improve the mac's performance I performed all of the actions described in the following article: 11 Ways to Optimize your Mac's Performance ( http://lowendmac.com/eubanks/07/0312.html ). Basically, I cleaned up files and 'other' system preferences. Things seemed to be fine and the computer did run much better. However, after running Monolingual and deleting what I understood to be 'unnecessary' PowerPC files the standard USB keyboard is no longer working.
I've tried to search for various remedies, but have come to a dead end. So I'm left with reinstalling the Snow Leopard OS (I think it is 10.6.8?) BUT I can't because it is asking to input the account password (which I know) to make the change and I can't figure how to do that when the keyboard not working.
Any help would be great!
*feeling like a bone head*How are you trying to reinstall Snow Leopard? If you're booting from the Snow Leopard or iMac Install DVD that came with the system then that should eliminate any of the issues you may or may not have caused when you deleted did the clean up work on your mom's system.
I suggest trying the following:
0) Verify that the caps lock key is off. It can make inputting passwords difficult if you don't realize it is ON.
1) Reset the PRAM by restarting the system then quickly press the command-option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears. Wait until you hear the computer restarts two times as indicated by the startup chime. For more info refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379.
2) If the issue persists after the PRAM reset then boot from the Snow Leopard or iMac Install DVD, whichever you have. Once you see the menu asking you to choose a language try using the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the language choice selection. If the arrow keys are working at this point it indicates your keyboard is at least partially functional. Go ahead and select the language then proceed to step 3.
3) Once the next screen appears move the cursor up to the menu bar area and pull down the Utilities menu. Select the 'Terminal' application. Once the Terminal application launches try typing the various keys on the keyboard and check to see if the correct characters are displayed. Please let us know if you detect any errors. If there are no errors then you should be able to quit the Terminal application and proceed with reintstalling the OS. -
KEYBOARD NOT WORKING LEOPARD UPDATE POSSIBLE CODING ERROR??
having read through all threads concerning this issue of internal MBP keyboards not working after installing leopard, and comparing to my own experience, it seems that everyone started having this problem soon after they must have downloaded the 1st software update to leopard.
my MBP's keyboard currently does not work. How am I typing you ask?
With the new apple USB aluminum keyboard. My boyfriend has it for his mac mini.
Because all these keyboard problems are new and happening to everyone now, we have to assume this is related to the leopard update. They JUST released the aluminum keyboard around the same time they released leopard, so they probably had bugs with the usb aluminum keyboard and had to make some kind of change in the code with how leopard relates with keyboard input. so, it's most likely a coding error and we are at the mercy of apple for a freaking software update ASAP. Don't erase and install - because that will just take you back before the update, and then after you update your software again, it will happen again and your keyboard will crash. I updated my software yesterday and almost immediately started having this issue. my MBP is a week old and i had no issues before this with the keyboard until the update.
The best thing we can do at this point is FLOOD APPLE WITH PHONE CALLS. We paid upwards of $3000 for a computer - holding down a key and messing with text edit is NOT acceptable.
These are NOT solutions. Every time your keyboard stops working, and holds you up from doing your work, CALL THEM.
That's what we think is happening...maybe something more severe is happening and we're wrong. but, hopefully, this is all it is and they will FIX IT as soon as possible because it's really annoying.Is anyone else running vmware or parallels?
I had both installed at different times and realized that for whatever reason the kernel extensions for both were installed on my machine. I downloaded both from their respective website and ran the full uninstall.
As of this moment my (then-persistent) keyboard issues are gone. I am not positive this was the solution as I just might not have had the problem yet (as they tended to be very sporadic), but it might be a good test if anyone else is using either of those software suites.
If you open a terminal window and type kextstat, you will be shown a full report of kernel extensions that exist on your machine. Towards the bottom of the list parallels and/or vmware will be listed if they are installed.
Hope this helps. Though I am still wondering if Leopard is the problem. -
Why is Emoji Keyboard not working with iOS7....??? Is there any setting which I am missing? Can anyone help
Yes. you should keep your media in iTunes, and indeed you should also keep a backup of your library as well. if you have the device set up for manual management then the content would remain on it when deleted from the library, but you would have no way to restore the device if there was a problem.

G4 just replaced power supply , it powers up , but the screen is not on and the mouse and keyboard aren't on either. A few times the computer came on with screen working but then it froze up, can't do any type of reset cause of keyboard not working. Help! Pressed pmu button already, nothing ,.. Ppc g4 Mac
Should I check the memory cards themselves? Reseat them?
Yes.
Memtest X or Rember to test the RAM.
Reseat is also good.
The iPhone 4 doesn't like USB 1.1 much.
after the update the computer was working well, except for this freeze when ever I connect iPhone.
I'd try USB 2.0 PCI. That's how I connect my iPhone 4s, and have connected all iPhones and iPods, to my G4.
Never an issue.
Can't say the same for USB 1.1.......
The above (previous post) linked PCI card is cheap enough.
Want cheaper, try this:
http://www.amazon.com/Protronix®-5-Port-Controller-Card-Chipset/dp/B005JE2U82/re f=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1337472141&sr=8-2
The NEC chipset is the desired chipset, regardless of what OS the maker says is compatible.
OS X has native NEC chipset USB support.
