Hello world!
The problem is that a friend of mine has a macbook (the new white one) and, he doens't know why, now he can write correctly (not caps locked) ONLY with CAPS LOCK and F6 activated...
If he try do deactivate 'em, he can't write letters, but only numbers...
What's happened?
Is there a way to have the macbook working normal?
Thx in advance!

I have the same problem... well it started just like that but know i can write anything and the caps and number lock dosnt respond, im restoring the OS, I hope it will fix it... did u friend resolve the problem?

  • My hp pavilion dv4 screen wont turn on but the cap, and num lock blink

    My Hp pavilion dv4- 2145dx and my laptop screens stays black but the key board stays on like the caps lock and the number lock, the mouse, volume, and the wifi light they all turn on and so do the fans but the caps and num lock blink every second at this point i dotn know what to do can anyone help 

    Hi,
    First, try a Hard Reset as follows.
    Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for a full minute.  Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and see if the notebook will start.
    If it still doesn't start, is there a sequence to the 'blinks' that you can match to the table below?

  • Cpu upgrades for dv4-1222nr; also confirm that caps-lock/num-lock repeated flashing is cpu failure

    1) What CPUs can I interchange in the dv4-1222nr?  It comes with the amd rm-72
    2) won't boot - fan powers up then powers down, then waits approx 12 sec, then caps lock & num lock flash approximately every two seconds.  I interpret this as repeated flashing of one, but it keeps flashing.... diagnostic document says it's supposed to repeat only 6 times.
    Scenario: Closed the laptop lid, which caused it to go to sleep, but this time it never awoke!.  Fan has been grinding but still worked, however upon dissasembly discovered the heatsink was partially plugged.  ALWAYS RAN HOT DUE TO POOR DESIGN. It was a hot day, and closing the lid actually increases the temperature.
    3) I presume, and I am pretty sure about this, that this laptop has no thermal shutdown threshold, i.e. shuts down automatically when it gets too hot.  Every desktop motherboard I've seen allows thermal limits to be set.  Another fail.

    Hi,
    This book shows you CPU's supported from day 1:

  • Blinking caps and num lock lights

    Opened up the lid on sleeping laptop and had nothing but a blank screen and blinking caps and num lock lights. I finally got vista restarted after turning it off and on a couple of times. Everything seems to be working, however the caps and num lock lights are still blinking every 2 seconds. Any thoughts on what is causing this?

    Hello,
    The blinking caps and numlock are a diagnostic feature of the Dv7 Notebook ( and others ). Depending on the combination it can be a number of different symptoms. They can be as minor as the battery having an insuficient charge or as serious as a CPU failure. I would recommend updating the ROM BIOS on your unit to ensure you have the latest fixes.- Make sure you have the latest one for your model - Here is a link to a document on the Blink Codes.

  • CAPS and num lock?

    hi all,
    when i need to use caps and num lock(both on at same time) to write an essay, sometimes the computer freeses. Why does it do this?

    A freezing computer isn't a good thing - is it always happening with a specific application? And if so which one? You can try launching Disc Utility and repairing permissions if you haven't done so - also, the app. called Onyx is great for running your regular maintenance scripts, and it's free as well.
    Sometimes a restart may clear things up too. Try some of these and see if there is a difference.

  • Service for vf02 permanently locks the invoice number

    Hi,
    I have created one service for VF02 transaction as given in this path:
    default_host
    --->sap
    --->bc
    --->gui
    --->sap
    --->its
    --->VF02
    I am calling this service in an external window browser from my Web Dynpro application.
    Problem is => if I cloase the browser window by using close button, it permanently locks the invoice number used.
    How to resolve this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Use ~SINGLETRANSACTION=1 parameter on your ITS service. This parameter closes your invoice properly.
    Hope this helps,

  • Is there Cap lock shift lock in Pages for iPad?

    Using pages for iPad is there cap lock/shift lock function. It is very difficult to do headings or posters without this function.

    Go to Settings > General > Keyboard and turn Enable Caps Lock to On. When Enable Caps lock is On then double-tapping the shift key will lock it down (it turns all blue). YOU CAN THEN TYPE ALL CAPS,

  • Cap lock is locked. Tried everything.

    I have MacBook Pro.
    My "caps lock" is locked on. And the light is  not on. Once it just froze and went to safe mode. I was not able to log in because it would not not accept my password since my password is with lowercase. I was able to log in by running OS X Install DVD and pressing Control-Comand - P. But the problem did not go away. Whatever I type is in CAPS. And all the folders act funny. They don't open up right away but rather come to the front very slow. It gets more interesting. I thought the problem is a keyboard. BUT when I switch to WINDOWS Parralel Desktop it WORKS FINE. I can type in LOWER case letters.
    Also, I am able to log in via SAFE mode by connecting external keyboard. Any way, I have tried different account, PRAM and SMC resets couple of times each as has been suggested in previous posts. I did check all keyboard settings and so on. I did check shift and other keys.They all look fine. Basicly I have tried everything that has been suggested.
    Please, advise.

    DID YOU EVER GET A RESOLUTION TO THIS?
    I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM>>>
    can only get lowercase letters using an external USB keyboard.
    Shift and Caps Lock keys are clean and unadulterated... they were working great yesterday.

    Hi Suman,
    I am calling Service for VF02 from Web Dynpro application as an external window, so definitely it'll lock the invoice.
    So when I close that window by close button of browser, it should unlock the invoice number, but it is not releasing the lock.
    I think It is not required to code any unlocking logic in my web dynpro application as I am opening this service in external window.
    Any further help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Locking a contract number

    Hi Gurus,
    How can I lock a contract number ( seen in ME33K) and release it from my custom program.

  • My cap key is locked on.

    The light goes on and off when I press the key but  nothing happens. I've tryed setting the key to off and nothing. I can't enter any passwords because my cap key is  locked.

    Sounds like a hardware problem.  If you have AppleCare, give them a call.  If not, take your MBP to your local Apple Store or AASP. 
     If you are in the habit of eating or drinking while using your computer, there may be crumbs/dirt trapped under the caps key.  Check out the following for how to clean:

  • Caps and Num lock blinking indefinitely

    Hey everyone.
    My brother just encountered the infamous startup error on his dv7-2045eo with blinking Caps and Num lock, but they are not blinking 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 times. They just continue to blink. What exactly does that mean? Other than that, it's just the regular startup error thing with black screen. We've tested the power supply, and it's just fine, so it shouldn't be a power issue.
     The hard drives are also okay.
    Any ideas?
