Apple Wireless Keyboard - Shift + 'r' key not working. It doesn't capitalise the letter. Can someone help please. Thank you.

Hi all,
I am having some problem with the Apple Wireless Keyboard. It has not problem connecting to both my iPad mini / iPhone 4S.
The problem comes when I start to type with it. All the keys are functioning will, except when I am trying to capitalise the letter 'r'.
I tried using Shift + r. It doesn't work, regardless whether I use the left or right Shift key.
Any someone help please. Thank you.

If your Macbook is less than a year old, it is under warranty. A repair of of a problem of this kind would be free. So, if you have a warranty, have the problem fixed by Apple.
If your Macbook is more than one year old, please tell us what operating system you are running, and any other information that would help understand what is going on.
If you do get the keyboard to work for a short time, long enough to post back, please unlock the "caps lock" button.

Apple Wireless Keyboard - Volume & Brightness keys not working Windows 7

Finally got my wireless keyboard working within Windows 7 but the volume / Eject / Brightness keys all do nothing - all other keys appear fine.
I have reinstalled the bootcamp drivers for the 2nd time but still nothing. I had this all working previously but have factory restored my iMac and cant remember how I originally did this..
Any ideas?

Maybe you could update the Boot Camp drivers. That happened to my internal keyboard, and updated drivers some times fixed it. Other times it fixed itself after a few restarts.

I've encountered this error myself upon occasion. If I remember correctly, it was a permissions/ownership issue with the some of the files I was copying.

Went to work on my photos and something pops up that says file off-line for missing. This has never happened before. Can someone help? thank you

"Went to work on my photos and something popped up that says, file 0ff-line or missing. This has never happened before. Can someone help? thank you!

This means that the photos (or the folders that contain them) have been moved, renamed or deleted outside of Lightroom. On Windows it can also mean the disk drive has changed letters.
To fix the problem see: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

Linking between pages is not working for me on mobile devices. Can someone help?

I can get the page linking to work on my desktop machine, but when I preview on mobile devices through Edge Inspect the page does not work. It tells me the page can't be found. Can someone help? - Thanks Robin

Try downloading Reflow Preview 8 that was released yesterday and see if that fixes it. If not can you post the name of the page you are trying to link too and I'll see if I can reproduce it.
Thanks for you help and thanks for using Reflow,

New printer Apple AirPrint - I'm lost, can someone help please, thanks!

Hi, I've just bought an Laser Printer HP1606pn, specifically so that I can print from an ipad, iphone and Mac. I believe that eprint is a new function for this printer but I can't work out what to do as there don't seem to be any specific instructions.
At the moment, I have it set up to work on Windows 7 with a USB cable; however, I haven't a clue what to do to get the Apple products working with it. Can someone help please?
Thanks very much!

Hi there Liz2,
Here are the steps you'll need.
1. Airprint works on wireless or networked printers. Your printer is network capable - meaning, you can plug in a cat-5 ethernet cable from the printer to your home router, and then Apple devices will be to wirelessly connect to it.
2. Once you have it connect to the router, you'll need to update the firmware inside the printer, to enable it's eprint and airprint features.
3. When that is finished, here is the guide for how to print via Airprint: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=ca&dlc=en&docname=c02623193&lc=en&product=4110410&tmp...

Downloads are not showing up in window. Can someone help? Thank you.

Just recently, downloads are not appearing in the Download window.
Under "Tools/Options"...
"Show the Downloads window..." is checked.
"Save files to" ( C:\Downloads ) is checked.

Check a setting: ''Firefox button > Options > Options (or Tools > Options) > Privacy, '''check''' "Remember download history"''

Consider upgrading Firefox to the current version 10.0.1. Your version is 8.0.

You can get the incremental update by doing the following in Firefox: Help > About Firefox > Check for updates

Apple Bluetooth Keyboard: Numeric keypad keys not working

Hi I have a G5 PPC and the 4, 5, 6, and + (all in a row) keys on the numeric keypad stopped working. Replaced batteries and re-paired the Bluetooth—no joy. Tried cleaning under these keys with a blast of air and it didn't help either.
Any ideas? Appreciate any advice. Thanks

I don't think there's any way to take the board apart, my suspicion is that whatever mechanism causes them to register is warped or damaged in some way. I would think that repairing the board would not be cost effective, a new one would seem to be the way to go. Sorry that there's not a clearer answer.

SocialCast Bookmarklet for Chrome is not working (it does on Firefox and Safari) - Can someone help me with it

Building a community on Socialcast, and I am a Chrome browser user. The bookmarklet bar doesn't work for my version of Chrome - I do not see any pop up blockers or other issues.
Let me know what are my next steps (other than using Firefox of Safari).

Hello:
Thanks for reporting this issue. We were able to confirm the fact that the bookmarklet is in fact broken in chrome, but does work in firefox and safari (which it sounds like may not be helpful to you). We will raise a ticket with our engineering team.

Error B839FBD8 on officejet 6600 can not get pass this can someone help please

Hi i got a Hp officejet 6600 when i turn it on it start to load when it goes to ERROE B839FBD8
can someone help me thank you Robert

Hi @Robert21,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see when you power up your HP Officejet 6600 you get an error message on the front panel 'B839FBD8'.
First I would like you to perform a hard reset on the printer:
1. Unplug all cables and memory cards from the printer. Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer while the printer is still turned on.
2. Unplug the other end of the cord from the power source.
3. If there is a power module on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.
4. After 60 seconds, plug the cord directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup as they can cause the printer to lose basic functionality over time).
5. Plug the power cord into the back of the printer.
6. The printer should automatically power back up. If it doesn't, turn it on with the power button.
7. Try making a photocopy (if your printer is an all-in-on printer) before connecting any other cables to the printer.
8. Connect any other needed cables to the printer.
Are you still seeing the error message? If yes, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 as it may be the printers hardware. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

My wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on my All-In-One computer?

Q.: My wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on my All-In-One computer?
A.: If your wireless keyboard and mouse do not work even after changing the batteries, please try re-syncing them by following these steps.
1. Make sure the computer is on, plug in the USB receiver. Push the button on the USB receiver until it flashes blue.
2. While the receiver is still flashing, press the red connect button on the keyboard (Make sure the batteries are installed). The USB receiver should stop flashing after pressing the button on the keyboard. It may take up to 8 seconds to sync.
3. Repeat the same process for the mouse. Push the button on the USB receiver, then press the connect button on the mouse (Make sure the mouse is on).
Note: This applies to all MSI All-In-One computers that include the ES500W wireless keyboard and SW130 mouse.

"This machine has an added 4 USB ports, could this be causing a problem?
It definitely could be the source of the problem. Perhaps the PCI card was bumped loose during shipping?
Have you tried removing the card? That's where I would start.
Keep us posted.
