Can anyone recommend a bluetooth keyboard and mouse for a PlayBook?

My computer stopped working and I thought I can make do with my PlayBook but I need a reliable keyboard and mouse. I've looked at other posts but they are really old, so I was wondering if anyone is currently using anything that works well. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

  • Opening certain websites with Firefox can lock up my computer, keyboard, and mouse for about 1 minute

    There seem to be specific "trigger" websites that lock up my computer for about 1 minute. For example, the problem can always be reproduced by trying to log onto att.yahoo.com. After waiting about 1 minute, I regain control of my computer and the website opens. There are no error messages. So far the problem does not seem to repeat after the 1st lock-up until I reboot. When I reboot, the problem happens once more on that first hit to a trigger website. This problem has been happening for about a year now. Have cleared my cache but that has not fixed the problem. Have tried using an alternate browser, Chrome, and never see this problem. Does anyone have a solution short of changing my default browser to Chrome?

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test.

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse compatability

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if the older bluetooth keyboard and mouse will work with a 20" imac duo core? The numbers are as follows: Apple Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard (A1016) & Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse (A1197). The imac number I believe is: MA200LL.
    I haven't received it yet though ebay but would like to do the bluetooth thing to keep my desk as clutter free as possible.
    Thanks!

    Taking this a step further; I bought the aluminum wireless KB with my 20" 2 GHz Core 2 Duo. I don't like the layout, so I bought the older style wireless KB (A1016). However, I can't get the Mac to recognize the new KB. I've even gone through the Bluetooth setup assistant to no avail: it just can't find it. I tried having the BT Setup Assistant look for ANY BT device and it sees the KB that way. I can get through to the point of entering the passkey on the computer but I seem to get hung up when trying to enter the same corresponding code on the new KB.
    Any ideas? Do I need to disable the wireless aluminum KB?

  • I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station.

    I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit.  Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Macbook pro does not respond to bluetooth keyboard and mouse at login screen

    i've seen this question floating around and i don't think i've found one that has been resolved. i'm hoping someone may have an answer by now.
    i do not have this issue when i boot into windows 7 (bootcamp) the macbook pro responds to keyboard input and mouse input immediately on the windows 7 login screen. when i boot into mac, there is no response from either. i've seen suggestions of waiting for 30 secods. i still get nothing after waiting for over a minute.
    what i do right now is use the built-in touch pad and keyboard of the macbook pro to get past the login screen. once i'm logged in, i can see that the bluetooth devices are not yet connected (the three dots that go across the bluetooth symbol at the top right of the screen are not yet there). then after a while, maybe about half a minute, the bluetooth keyboard and mouse are connected and i can use them normally.
    it is not a big deal but it is very annoying.
    i am using a logitech bluetooth mouse (v740) and an adesso bluetooth keyboard (wkb-4000bm). i also tried an azio bluetooth keyboard and had the same issue. all these keyboards are made for mac.
    thannks in advance.

    just a correction, the keyboard and mouse don't always automatically reconnect once i'm logged in. most of the time i have to go click the bluetooth icon at the top right of my screen, select the mouse and then select "connect". i have to do the same to the keyboard.

  • N8 Which bluetooth keyboard and mouse ?

    Hi Folks
     I've had a n8 since last october and am ready for a keyboard with a mouse included or maybe a seperate mouse. I do like the idea of a small control I can use that could be the mouse for remote starting and stopping a movie I play via hdmi.
    I did see a ovi app that could control the playing of a movie via a Wi remote. I do like this, havn't tried this.
    Which bluetooth keyboard and maybe bt mouse do you reccomend ?
    options maybe travel
    unsupported on my knee
    in the car , velcro to the steering wheel  / office
    on the table
    I quite like standard key spacing so I don't have to relearn to type.
     what effective range ?
     does it survive the eventual coffee spill ?
     Otherwise great phone I max it out.
    Regards Don

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse will not connect

    I loaded a linux iso on a usb. Loaded it on a reboot. It may have been corrupted or something, because it did not load correctly. I rebooted the computer again and now the bluetooth keyboard and mouse will not connect. How can I fix this?
    Thank you.

  • Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse

    I jursted bougth a HP Envy 23-o014 All-In-One.  It came with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse now they are not working?  How can I get this fixed?

    I have the same computer - less than 6 months old -  and the same problem (which started after an update on 3/12 - ?).  The diagnostics I ran told me the keyboard and mouse were no longer compatible with 3.0.   I was able to regain function by restarting with f2 to try to correct.  Worked fine for a while then the mouse eventually became more and more erratic. On the next restart the keyboard was unresponsive again.   The tech guys removed the dongle (from the back panel behind your screen) and plugged into the external port - after that, everything worked fine again ..... until the next restart.  Since the system is under warranty, they just replaced the keyboard and mouse.  Again everything appeared to work fine so I brought it back home and guess what - same problem!  I remove the dongle from one drive to another - then it worked fine again.  I restarted to test it, when it came up the screen went immediately to something that said "keyboard error" but went immediately to the hp start screen before I could catch it.  When I began to log in after that, the cursor would jump to the left side of the letter I just typed - it would only go back and forth.  I removed the dongle and reinserted - problem fixed.  This is not how it should work - someone has to know the root cause for this - ? 

  • Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse - Flaky detection on startup

    My 2009 MP regularly has trouble detecting the bluetooth keyboard and mouse on detection. Mouse will air after a minute or so buy keyboard is getting worse...
    Anyone else see/solve this?
    Thanks
    Paul

    Have you tried reading the many other posts on this forum that talk about this issue? It seems that by default the services are not enabled for some peripheral devices. Try right-clicking the bluetooth icon, selecting "show my bluetooth devices" (or similar i dont ahve it in front of me), then right click the keyboard/mouse, go to the Services tab and make sure the services are enabled.

  • Can anyone recommend good bluetooth earphones to listen to radio apps on the iPad?

    Can anyone recommend good bluetooth earphones for listening to radio apps on the iPad?

    While not many systems come in wood grain, I'd go for a 2.1 system instead of 2.0 if your looking for better sound and bass.
    I really like my 2.1 Systems | Creative Inspires, but also check out Logitech or perhap even Klipsch and Bose if your budget allows for those.

  • Buzz / Hiss sound when using apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse w/heaphones

    When I use the apple wireless (bluetooth) keyboard and mouse with my 1.42Ghz G4 Mac mini, there is a constant buzzing or hissing noise. When I turn the keyboard and mouse off, it stops. I've updated the firmware on my mac mini, but I couldn't update the firmware on my keyboard and mouse:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301282
    (thanks, apple)
    Is there a way to fix this noise? Would updating the firmware solve this? Has anyone else experienced it? It's driving me crazy!
    Thanks!

    would you have another computer available that has 10.3 on it? it would probably help. pmu reset may also help http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300574. good luck. [ : ) ]
