Brand new Notebook Keyboard adds a "space" after pressing the "B" key?!

My brand new HP ENVY 17 SELECT EDITION NOTEBOOK PC 's keyboard keeps adding a space everytime I press the "B" key.... HALP?      
Example: "B rand new PC"

Have you tried this?
To Perform A Hard Reset
Shut down the computer by going to the Start menu and selecting shut down. (If you have no display, hold the power button down for  5 seconds)
Disconnect the AC Adapter from the notebook.
Remove the battery from the bottom of the notebook.  There will be a switch/button to eject the battery.
Wait at least 1 minute with all power sources disconnected.
Re-insert the battery and reconnect the AC Adapter and then attempt to power on the notebook.

  • HT1343 the numeric pad is switched off after pressing the option key 5 times; could that be prevented?

    after working in Photoshop, where I press the option key a lot, the right side [numeric board] is switched off.
    I wish to  prevent that not so handy action bij Apple

    The I/O error normally indicates that the hard drive got damaged. Make a backup of your data with Carbon Copy Cloner or Time Machine and take your computer to an Apple Store or reseller. Also, you can install the hard disk yourself, buying the hard drive at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/

  • My laptop keyboard is having problems. I took it if to change my bottom case it worked fine prior and then after just the power key worked. I cleaned everything nothing is bent in the cable. now my power key is not working

    Hi my keyboard is not working I took off the bottom case to change it prior my keyboard was fine and after just the power key worked. I checked everything no portions were bent and it plugged in good. I tried to turn it on this morning and now the power key doors not work??

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    pmset -g assertions
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.

  • Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l nudge cursor

    Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l produce cursor nudges.

    It's a new machine - and the Thunderbolt Display is meant to work with it. You need to just make an appointment at your local Apple Store and have them fix whatever is wrong.
    If you like, you could always try a SMC reset and a PRAM/NVRAM reset to see if either of those will get your keyboard back in working order...

  • My keyboard freezes after using the option key... what gives?

    I have a 17" MacBookPro with OSX 10.6.8
    The problem:   My keyboard key freeze after using the " option key"  in Photoshop or  when downloading a file using the option key.
    I can usually use it 2 or 3 times before it makes a chirping cricket like sound… then my keys freeze up.? The only way to correct it is to restart.
    Anyone else have or had this issue?   it's frustrating.  What's the deal?

    Can I just bring my laptop to the nearest service center and get this problem solved directly? You know, usually it will takes several days to receive the backup keyborad, I can't wait
    You'll have to phone the service center and ask. (When I lived not far from Lenovo's Canadian service center and wanted to bring in a ThinkPad for warranty repair they said that would be OK with them but my unit would be put on a queue the same as if I'd shipped it in. They simply didn't offer walk-in, while you wait service.)
    In the interim it may or may not be possible to reattach the key, even just temporarily, depending on whether it wasn't put on properly at the factory or if it's physically broken in some way. Or you could use an external keyboard until Lenovo sends you a replacement, etc.
    I've just call the local service center, he told me that he can not repair individual key, they can just replace the whole keyboard..... How bad luck I am!!!

  • Default space after calling the sub template

    Hi All,
    I am calling sub template in the header of rtf report. Even though there is no spaces between header and report title, when previewing it displays a gap between the output of sub template and report title. In the sub template there is no spaces. Is it by default rtf creates spaces after calling sub template in header?
    Thanks,
    Sushil

    Even if i use simple <?call@inlines:HeaderENF?> <?end call?> <?import:file:C:/map/Header-Landscapem1.rtf?>  command in rtf header, there is still spaces between sub template values and AAA.
      AAA....
    The sub template has following code:
    <?template:Header?>
    <?param:dw_date; string?>
    DW REFRESH DATE: <?$dw_date?>
    <?end template?>
    I am using 11.1.1.6.4.
    Is it by default there will be spaces after calling the sub template?

    I used migration assistant and my ethernet cable to move data and apps from my 5-yr old Intel-based iMac to my brand new Intel-based iMac running OS Lion. The old machine was running OS 10.5.8.  Not all my files transferred (or I can't find them).  I've seen recommendations to select the old computer in System Preferences, but that didn't work.  Help.  Thanks!

    IMO, wrong choice. Start over, using a FireWire cable and following the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.

    That situation went from inconvenient to complicated quickly.  Wait for any pending orders to drop off, wait for things to clear up, wait till your upgrade comes up and then upgrade when your contract is fulfilled.  I would have suggested a replacement phone, I know, with only a month left why couldn't you just upgrade early, but these situations where people try to upgrade early always end horribly and once a phone order starts, it almost cannot finish until something winds up shipped received and returned.  Sorry this happened the way it did.  Definitely not efficient.

    How could it have been a brand new phone if there were already pictures on it?
    I'd ask for your money back.

  • My brand new MacBook Air won't turn on all the way.

    Hi my brand new MacBook Air won't turn on all the way. If I try to restart it or shut it down, it will go like it is starting up, but goes to a gray screen and stays there. I can see the mouse and move it, but it won't turn all the way on. What is wrong with it? It had been working fine since I got it, but today it hasn't been.

    You may have to see if troubleshooting this issue can help, though the instructions on a process of elimination by symptoms are tedious in the following support article, and are suggested to be performed ahead of trying the process described in the title.
    •Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    For the actual SMC reset, note subsection in above, instructions click-open on blue text:
    >Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    If the computer does not shut down, and just hangs there, try pressing the power button down for 15 seconds. Check the suggestions in the above article to see if any of them can be used, if the computer will power-up.
    There is another item that sometimes can help, but the main issue you say could be resolved by the SMC reset; this other thing is involved NVRAM (non-volatile random access memory) so here's an article about it.
    •About NVRAM and PRAM:

    >Resetting NVRAM/PRAM opens in above, click-to-see instructions on how to reset.
    You may have to call ahead to the nearest Apple Store for an appointment to see a Genius; or at authorized reseller, their service product specialist who should be trained to understand how to proceed, just in case there is a hardware issue behind the symptoms. When you call, be sure to have the serial number and purchase date available, when you call an official store.
    Or use the 'Apple - Support - Contact Apple Support' to start the process...

  • Is Photoshop Elements the same as Photoshop? I am brand new and have no idea if they are the same or

    Is Photoshop Elements the same as Photoshop? I am brand new and have no idea if they are the same or different or what!

    Photoshop Elements is a subset of the features found in full Photoshop, and with an organizing component that isn't part of the big program (which includes a deluxe file browser, Bridge, rather than the Organizer found in Elements). More info here:
