HP Pavilion g6-2320tx Notebook PC key pad not working

HP Pavilion g6-2320tx Notebook PC keypad do not work.

Hi,
Try the following.
Shut down the notebook, 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 see if this will launch the Start-up Menu - if it does, 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.

Alt Gr + key combination not working in FF?

When i wont to type for example "@" i cant because in FF combination of Alt Gr key and V are not working.
Why the combination is not working and how i can fix that?

I had the same problem, in my case the problem was the Firewall (COMODO). I set the Firefox program without permission to access to the keyboard, the most of keys worked perfectly but ALTGR+Any didn't work. Try to allow access to the keyboard to firefox program if you has any firewall with proactive defense.
I hope this solve your problem.

I am facing problem in playing yahoo pool in Firefox 4 while it was working fine in Firefox 3.6. In Firefox 4 the combination of mouse keys are not working properly.

I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
So glad to get this working again.

Lenovo Notebook Essential B570e2 some keys are not working

hi can you please help me? I have a Lenovo Notebook Essential B570e2 and its driving me crazy. it has got a bunch of problems but right now the most important problem is that some keys of the keyboard are not working. so im writing this all using on-screen keyboard, its very frustrating and annoying. the keyboard just started messing up all in a sudden a few hours ago. i dont think its because of dirt beneath the keys because yesterday i was watching a video online and typing on the keyboard at the same time. and the sound of the video would extend/freeze some times when i was pressing a key. not sure how to describe it. can someone please help me? thank you!

Hi renanc93,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the Keyboard keys are not working as expected in your B570 Laptop, below are the steps to check the issue in the computer:
Remove the battery and any other peripheral device connected to the computer. Hold the power button for 10 seconds and then connect only the AC Adapter and try to turn ON the computer.
Check if the issue is same in “Safe Mode” – Restart the computer keep tapping “F8” key before the Lenovo Logo appears and select “Safe Mode”.
Also check if any external Keyboard is working as expected with the Laptop if it is working fine, the issue is Hardware related, I would Strongly Suggest Calling Technical Support for Assistance as the issue may be hardware related. Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.
Hope this helps!!!
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

Some keys are not working of my laptop lz801pa#

Hi
Recently I installed Windows 8.1 on my laptop (hp pavilion dv6 6115tx entertainment notebook) - lz801pa
Then I installed Visual studio 2013. everything was working perfectly then.
I guess when I changed keyboard option in visual studio to C# 2005, after that some of the keys stopped working.
I also reset that option to default, but the issue is still there.
Down & right arrow keys, right arrow key of num pad, 1-5,8,9,0 keys in the first row(up above qwerty keys row) are not working.
I am able to press indivisually tab & alt, but alt+tab combination is not able to use for switching between windows/apps.
Please help me.

Hello Rdmusale,
I understand that some of the keys are not working on your notebook computer, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
To correct the output of characters from your keyboard, I recommend following this document on Notebook Keyboard Troubleshooting (Windows 8). This should help correct how the keys appear on your keyboard.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

Hi!
Before you can use the hibernation key combination, you must the enable the hibernation function on your notebook. You can do this in Windows power settings and then go to the hibernation tab and set the mark on Enable hibernation.
Restart the notebook and try it again.
And for what application do you try to use the function buttons? This buttons are working by default with Windows Media Player but I tested it with WinAmp and it works too. If you need advice how to activate in with WinAmp let me know.
Here is the installation order that can help you to install all Toshiba stuff properly:
Toshiba Common Module
Toshiba Power Saver
Toshiba Zooming Utility
Toshiba Controls
Toshiba PC Diagnostic Tool
Toshiba Hotkey Utility
Toshiba TouchPad On Off Utility

Modifer keys do not work with mouse in Illustrator

Below is a copy of a bug report I just submitted to Adobe. I don't suppose any users have run across this and found a solution or workaround?
I found someone else with this problem in an archived topic thread, but the only response that poor fellow got was an accusation of not following instructions (His problem wasn't user error, BTW).
Thanks
******BUG******
Concise problem statement:
Modifer keys do not work with mouse: For example, free transform or rotate behaviors that require "Click-Ctrl" .
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. select object
2. select free transform tool
3. left click (without releasing) a corner of the bounding box.
4. start dragging
5. press ctrl
Results:
object behaves as though the ctrl key was not pressed. i.e. the cursor does not change shape and the object scales rather than distorts.
Expected results: The cursor should change shape as the ctrl key is pressed and the object should distort rather than scale.
Additional information: This behavior is intermittent. Occasionally Illustrator recognizes the "Click-Ctrl" combination and behaves exactly as the help file predicts it will. The cursor changes shape and the object distorts rather than scales. I can offer no rhyme or reason for when Illustrator will behave as advertised and when it will ignore the modifier keys.
The example above involves the free transform tool, but the problem occurs just as often with other tool behaviors that require a modifier key + mouse combination.
Primarily using Wacom Intuos3 tablet. (with latest drivers), but have also tried combinations with microsoft mouse or both mice installed.
Also, immediately after an occurrence Illustrator bug, left AI open, went to a different app that uses mouse+modifier (Ctrl+Click). That different app recognizes Ctrl+Click with no problems whatsoever.

Thanks Guys,
Good to know it's working for you. I guess that's the nature of intermittent bugs. Of course, Adobe's bug report form has a field for version, which I, of course, filled in. Sorry I didn't add it to this post. I'm using the latest version CS3 v13.0.2.
Stephen,
Sorry I was not more clear when I said, "For example, ...". I was talking about the modifier keys not working with several different tools. The Free Transform tool advertises functionality that is supposed to work with a "Click (down, but don't release)then hold down Ctrl" combination. The Rotate tool advertises a behavior that is supposed to work with an "Alt-Click" combination. These are just 2 examples of the modifier keys not working. I focused primarily on one example in the bug report(ctrl after and in addition to click in the free transform tool, not alt-click in the rotate tool).
Here is what I expect(quoted from Adobe's CS3 help file)
(From the "Distort Objects with the Free transform tool" help topic)
"Select one or more objects.
Select the Free Transform tool .
Start dragging a corner handle on the bounding box (not a side handle), and then do one of the following:
Hold down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) until the selection is at the desired level of distortion.
Hold down Shift+Alt+Ctrl (Windows) or Shift+Option+Command (Mac OS) to distort in perspective."
(from the "Rotate an object by a specific angle" help topic:)
You can control the exact angle of rotation with the Rotate command.
Select one or more objects.
"Do one of the following:
To rotate around the center point, choose Object > Transform > Rotate, or double-click the Rotate tool.
To rotate around a different reference point, select the Rotate tool. Then Alt‑click (Windows) or Option‑click (Mac OS) where you want the reference point to be in the document window.
Enter the rotation angle in the Angle text box...."
These Tool based mouse-key combinations do occasionally work as they are supposed to, so I know what the expected results are supposed to look like, but whether they work or not appears to depend on the phase of the moon, the day of the week, and the color of the president's underwear.
Other non-tool based mouse-key combinations in Illustrator work consistently all the time - Ctrl-A for Select All as just one example that always works.
Thanks Again

Function keys are not working correctly

I've been looking all over the various threads and I can't find an answer that solves my problem.
Here are the details:
I bought the computer in the U.S. where I live.
I have a iMac 2.4GHz intel Core 2 Duo EMC 2133 with a 20" screen. Bought it new in February 2008.
I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 (I am waiting for my order for OS Snow Leopard to come in!!)
I have been using a wireless mouse and Keyboard (Love not having cords!)
Recently, my wireless keyboard got a short and quit working. I went down to the apple store and got a new wireless keyboard.
I had the computer with me at the genius bar so, yes, the apple employee saw exactly what I have.
I took it all home got the thing all put back together and got the new keyboard paired up and working with the computer.
Here are the problems:
Went to go use the function keys while using iTunes and found they weren't working properly. The F10, F11 and F12 do not control the volume of sound as the keyboard indicates they would, they instead activate dashboard, spaces, and application windows.
Following the advice of other threads, I looked over in the system preferences and made sure the "Use all F1, F2 etc." box was unchecked (it was unchecked), things still didn't work.
I tried the fn key but it appears to not work at all it has no effect on the functioning of the function keys.
I went under keyboard shortcuts in system preferences and found the F10, F11 and F12 keys, it confirms that those keys control spaces, dashboard and application windows as they are performing but shows no options to either reassign to volume control (as marked on the keyboard) or make the fn key work.
I've gone back and forth trying various combinations of checked and unchecked boxes to see if anything would work, so far I've come up with nothing.
A couple more important or interesting facts:
Yes I have turned off and taken the batteries out of the old keyboard. My bluetooth connection currently shows it as disconnected.
I have restarted the computer.
One thing I find odd; when I go under preferences and go to Keyboard and Mouse when I go under the section "Bluetooth" it shows Bluetooth mouse with the name of the mouse and the battery level. BUT nothing is showing up under bluetooth Keyboard, I can't figure out how to change this and don't know if it is contributing to the problem.
When I go under the bluetooth logo on the top bar I find the mouse and both keyboards referenced, the old keyboard is shown as disconnected and the other two are connected. I have tried to update the device's name but it doesn't seem to let me.
I have double clicked on the device under bluetooth and it shows the new keyboard as discoverable, paired and connected. Hence, I am using the new keyboard to write this inquiry.
Please, any assistance would be of great help. I have tried to be thorough in order help narrow the possible problem. Thanks!!

Just thought I'd let you know. Our suspicions were correct, it was the OS. After I installed Snow Leopard (10.6.8) all the problems were corrected. I also updated the RAM from 1 gb to 6 gb. The mac is working all around better. Sorry it took so long to get back to everyone. My superdrive had pooped out. Rather than replace it I got an external drive from OWC connected with firewire 800. So far everything is running very well, as far as I can tell this external drive is better than the original superdrive. My superdrive has always acted funny, infact I returned the first mac I got after a week because its superdrive was also malfunctioning. Anyway, all that to say everything seems to be fully functioning again.

My Escape key is not working

Hi,
I am Meena.
I am doing a project using NetBeans and MS-Access.
When I run my project a internal framed named login loaded on the jdesktoppane which in JFrame.
So in the login internal frame i used two buttons one for Sign-in and another for sign out.
So I combined the Sign-in button with Enter key and Sign-out button with Escape key by the following coding.
I wrote the following coding in LoginInternalFrame->properties->enabled->advanced->Generate PreIntialization Code.
Action EscFromLogin=new AbstractAction()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
    jButton2.doClick();
Action OkFromLogin=new AbstractAction()
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
       jButton1.doClick();
getRootPane().getInputMap(jButton2.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE,0,false),"Esc_in_Login");
getRootPane().getActionMap().put("Esc_in_Login",EscFromLogin);
getRootPane().getInputMap(jButton1.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER,0,false),"Ok_in_Login");
getRootPane().getActionMap().put("Ok_in_Login",OkFromLogin);In the above coding Enter key works well no problem.that is when I press the Enter key ,it combined with Sign-in button and works well.
But when I press Escape key,it doesnot combined with Sign-off button.
that is nothing is happening when I press Esc key.
So i change the Escape key and test with F1 then F2 then F3 all are combined with Sign-off button and works well.But only the escape key is not working.
But I have so many internal frames .In all internalframes my esc key works well.But not in the first inter frame(login internalframe)
I couldnot understand the reason.
Will you please help me to solve.
Thank you so much.
Meena

mmm, i'm doing some tests and the case is working for me... The reason F1,F2 keys works while ESC don't is that some component is "eating" the ESC key. Probably your password textField, but it is not its default behaviour. For example, try to replace the textField with a FormattedTextField, write something into it and press ESC, this first ESC is consumed by the FormattedTextField, if you press ESC a second time the FormattedTextField not consume it, so the ESC keystroke processing is given to the rest of the componentes until one of they consume it (basically). So, how can you solve th problem? Try to determine which component is the "escape-eater". Once you detected it try to determine which properties are set and if this properties can alter the keyboard mapping. The problem can be difficult to repeat for us because the look and feel, java version, etc. can affect the system behaviour too. A global hook to ESC can also be the reason (maybe esc key it's not reaching ths components), try to override ProcessKeyBindings and log the results....

Hello, how much did you pay when some parts of the keyboard keys are not working properly due to accidental spilt of tea?

I accidentally spilt a tea on the keyboard of my Macbook Air 11'. I managed to wipe the keyboard and saved my laptop. However, I noticed that the Spacebar, Shift and Command keys are not working as it should be. It's like something's stuck inside that makes these keys hard to press as usual. I refered this problem to Amsys, Berwick St London, as the reservations in Apple Stores are full. Do you have any idea how much is the cost for diagnosis and repair if ever?
Please help.

if you spilled a good bit of tea, its a serious problem, yes.
it got inside, and will corode, and bad things will begin to happen.
Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.

Keyboard keys are not working

Im on mac OS X 10.6.8 several keyboard keys are not working. For instance the at symbol is not working or question mark and random other punctuation keys. The problem started after running some code from terminal to trun off mouse acceleration and then installing a plug-in to control more accurately the mouse funtions. Ive since uninstalled the plug in and disabled the adjustment in terminal. Ive checked all the normal keyboard funcions to make sure settings were not funky. When I log out and log in as a differnt user the problem with the keyboard is fixed. Someone please help
Code I ran

Hello lindzthecreator,
I suggest this part of the article named One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1381
Some keys don't work as expected
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Speech.
Click the Text to Speech tab.
If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working. If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly. Use Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.
All the very best,
Sterling
