Hi JMackey,
Is there the same issue when sending emails via OWA?
If you use "Ctrl+Enter" shortcut to send the email when the issue occurred, how about the result?

  • My Apple Bluetooth keyboard has stopped working. The top row of keys works but the rest of the keys do not. I was carrying this in my computer bag without turning it off and that is when this started.

    My apple bluetooth keyboard has stopped working. The top row of keys works and the iPad sees the bluetooth keyboard (the bluetooth icon is active) but the other keys do not work. For the past coupld of days I have carried my keyboard in my computerbag without turning it off and I am thinking I have done something to make the letter keys to stop working. Two days in a row I did turn on the music as I carried the computer bag into work so I know that some keys were being activated.

    *UPDATE*
    I have been able to use the Zoom function to zoom in and the keys on the top row no longer are in the non-responsive strip of area.

  • IOS 5: Phone button stopped functioning

    After updating IOS 5,  the phone button at my IP4 has stopped functioning. I can not make phone calls except using contacts button or listen my messages. I see that I have 4 messages but the application switches off after two seconds or does not start after pressing the phone button. There are other problems such battery draining. I realized that notification system is not functioning as well, despite me turning off all notifications I am still getting notifications from NYT and  Facebook as well.

    It took me a couple of days because most of the time I have the sound turned off.  It was only after my son was playing Slice Fractions and asked me to turn on the sound that I noticed it at all and only then because the app was loud as...well, it was really loud. 
    On the other end of the service report spectrum, for whatever reason, my gut told me to get Apple Care when I got the phone.  May have been the persuasive smile of the salesgirl or just good instincts...  Still, they were really professional on my text-chat session.  We tried a few of the things that were outlined above and then they just set me up with an appointment at the Genius Bar for Wednesday afternoon.  I am told there is a good chance that they will give me a new device if they can't fix it on the spot.  Since I will be restoring from a backup, the problem, if it is a glitch, should appear on the new phone as well and then we'll have our answer...
    Apple Care vs. Taking Care is like the difference between Good Whiskey vs. Cheap Whiskey: 
    Pay now or Pay later...
    I'll keep you posted...

  • My Apple Bluetooth keyboard has stopped responding after working fine for 1 month with a Mini.

    Both Mini (2.5/4 GB; 10.7.3 with all s/ware up to date) and Apple keyboard were bought new and at the same time (March 2012). Both paired up with no problems and worked together happily until 2 days ago.
    Took keyboard to Apple reseller; worked fine with other machines there.
    Returned with Mini; Mini and keyboard worked fine there too.
    Came home; Mini and keyboard worked fine that afternoon and the following morning. Then they stopped again ...
    Battery power=100%. Under Bluetooth prefs, all is well: paired, configured, connected.
    Any ideas for a fix?

    I know this is going to sound simplistic, but bear with me.
    Have you tried another pair of new batteries?
    New like in an unopened package of Duracell batteries?
    No commercials, just go as opposite as possible.
    Hope this helps.

  • Since iOS 7.0.2 the apple Bluetooth keyboard has stopped working with my ipad2

    The keyboard will no longer type in any app. It was getting whether caps lock was on/off confused on Friday and when I came to try to use it in lectures this morning it was completely not working. You can unpair and repair it to the ipad - type in the 4 digit code but when you try in any application - audionote/notes/mail it won't register any characters.
    Hope this is enough to explain the problem, would really appreciate help ASAP
    Emma

    As said in the first post, that's the first thing I did. But just in case tried again and it still just won't type letters/numbers... For everything except the 4 digit pairing code.
    It's really strange, wondering if it's something to do with the update as someone's I know is doing a very similar thing.
    Have also already changed the batteries once since getting it less than a month ago.
    Thanks very much for your prompt reply tho autocorrect doing a science degree is a nightmare - chemokines = cheekiness lol

  • Send Button Stops Functioning on Some Email

    We are using Exchange 2010 in online mode with Outlook 2007 (I have a couple of Outlook 2013 users who are having this problem, too, though). We experience
    an intermittent failure of the Send button. The email doesn't go to the Outbox - nothing happens when the Send button is pressed and appears to be disabled. We
    use the workaround of creating a new email and pasting everything over. 
    I have seen some chatter in the past about inline JPEG signatures (we have them, but this has happened without them) with HTML email (we are in HTML
    mode, but changing to RTF and then back to HTML, which has been suggested as a solution previously doesn't work). This happens on emails with attachments, emails with no attachments, emails that were saved to drafts, brand new replies, forwarded email, new
    email. I can't see a pattern.
    I remember reading something in 2011 about there being an issue with the Exchange store that was supposed to be resolved in a roll-up. We're current with our roll-ups and patches. 
    Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

  • Apple Bluetooth Keyboard stopped working letters Q thru I.

    My Apple Bluetooth Keyboard has stopped working on letters Q thru I.  Any suggestions.  Is it worth repair, or just buy new?

    Sorry....I assumed that the KB was attached to a Mac
    If you are near an Apple Store, you might take it in for testing.
    From what you describe, I suspect the KB has failed.

  • HELP! In middle of upgrade to windows 8 and keyboard/trackpad stopped working!

    Hey all, new mac user here. Just bought a new macbook air 13" 2014 model. I succedded in installing windows 7 via bootcamp via a usb drive and was in the middle of installing a downloadable windows 8 upgrade (at a preferences page when they ask you to select your favorite color) when my macbook's keyboard/trackpad stopped functioning. I plugged in a usb mouse and that would not work either. I have absolutely no clue as to what to do next. If I had to install some driver or thing please tell me how to cancel the windows 8 install and return to windows 7. Thanks for all your help strangers

    I was not able to find any drivers specifically for the web cam. I did find software to use the camera, but that was all I could find.
    However, I do have a question about the Windows 8 upgrade process that was used.
    Did you do an in-place upgrade or a clean install of Windows 8?
    Go back to device manager. Is there anything here at all in an other category indicating it is having some type of an issue?
    There are certain events that will need to happen.
    Go to the start screen and search for uninstall a program. Select this option in the settings category.
    This should take you to the Desktop app and show the familiar uninstall a program feature from Windows 7.
    Select add/remove Windows Components on the left.
    Is Framework 3.5 checked here? If not, enable this and install it.
    Then, install the HP framework which is needed for some HP programs. This is a Windows 7 installation, but it should go through.
    http://goo.gl/jDI7X
    Once that is finished, reboot the system.
    Let me know what happens.

  • Bluetooth Keyboard malfunction

    Some of the keys in the bluetooth keyboard are not function normally. The "delete" is used to be function as a backspace key. Now this key can only delete the character in front of the cursor and not function as backspace key anymore. Also the arrow key that move the cursor left and right, up and down is not working. The function go back to normal if I restart the computer or I reconnect it . However, it become malfunction again after a few minutes. I have change the battery but it is still the same.
    Please help

    Problem solved!
    I had problems losing the use of my Apple Bluetooth keyboard in combination with the D-Link DBT-120 dongle.
    I fixed it by going to System Preferences > Bluetooth > Advanced > and changed the default Bluetooth-PDA-Sync popup menu from "Modem" to the "RS-232" port.
    This fixed the loss of my Apple Bluetooth keyboard during reboots and it also fixed all of the Bluetooth error messages I was getting in the Console > System Log... as well as all of the Bluetooth error messages I was getting during SUM (i.e. Single User Mode... Command-S during startup).

  • Keyboard/mouse variably function

    My keyboard & mouse stop functioning unpredictably. Problem persists after repairing disk,permissions;also tried taping KB cable under battery, no luck. Can use USB KB & Mouse. All other functions seem OK. Machine is > 3 yrs old. Should I chuck it? Is it likely an OS problem? I also must attach USB KB to launch Windows from Bootcamp (ie. the KB won't work before Mac OS launches). Thanks for any clues, suggestions. I've had the problem intermittently for 6 months or more, but it is now more persistent.

    Intel-based Apple Portables: Troubleshooting unresponsive trackpad issues
    I had the bloated battery problem 9 mths ago, or so, and replaced the battery as soon as possible->*could this have damaged the KB/trackpad connection?*
    It's possible if the battery was leaking.

  • Apple bluetooth keyboard not found

    MacBook Pro
    Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013
    Processor  2.6 GHz Intel Core i5
    Software  OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
    since yesterday the external bluetooth APPLE keyboard cannot be found.
    I use both a Apple bluetooth mouse and an Apple bluetooth keyboard. The mouse continues to work just fine, but the keyboard just stopped working and my computer cannot find it as a bluetooth device. I didn't run any system updates at all- the bluetooth keyboard just stopped working and then I couldn't find it- I get the message "no keyboard found." And yes, the batteries are installed correctly. And yes, I have turned the keyboard on.
    This is the control panel I stare at for a long time and nothing happens:
    I've read all the available troubleshooting advice from Apple, which is mostly a run down of how to put batteries in the **** thing and run the Bluetooth control panel :-/
    WTH?!

    I found a fix for this and it does work. It's so simple I have a hard time understanding why Apple doesn't promote this extremely helpful and easy solution to the bluetooth keyboard problems (I hope you have as good luck with the fix as I had.)
