The litle green light on my flat coardless keyboard has gone out. Everything else works. Is there an easy fix?

Does the key itself still work or do both not work?

2009 Aluminum Keyboard caps lock light not functioning

Greetings:
I bought my wireless keyboard in February 2010 and it works but lately the caps lock light has not been coming on when I hit the caps lock key. I took it to a local Apple Specialist to try to figure out what is going on and it of course worked when he paired it to his machine.
I got it back home and re-paired it to my mini (2009 2.25 mhz intel) and it worked for the day... now it is not functioning again. I unpaired the keyboard and re-paired it again and the light functions again for the time being. But if it holds to pattern, tomorrow it will be non-functioning again.
I have the latest update for the keyboard installed and I am at Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on the system.
It appears that if the keyboard goes to sleep, this phenomenon happens. Any ideas?

I think that re-pairing the keyboard does essentially the same thing as restarting the machine would do with regards to resetting the keyboard. I did replace the batteries today just to see if that would help. -- so far, the light is working still and the keyboard has been asleep for a couple of hours since I replaced the batteries. They showed 81% when I replaced them this morning.
I would like to know if this is a common problem. The keyboard always works, just the caps lock light stops working which is annoying for me because I tend to hit it by accident and the light is a good way to see that I did, in fact, hit the key.
I am marking the question as answered, but hopefully someone has a real fix for it, or Apple has a new firmware update coming soon

There has been no spillage and it has not been dropped.

Do you have access to a USB wired Apple (or maybe even a PC) keyboard?
That may be used to help troubleshoot the internal keyboard and on startup
be able to access (or see if you can) the System, and attempt to see about
troubleshooting. See if it will start in SafeBoot, (shift key held down just after
startup tone, if it runs in safeboot, then login to see if you can read system
logs in Console) and another idea may be to attempt to start in Recovery &
then attempt to use OS X Utilities there to see if you can verify and then to
repair the hard disk drive, and do some checks on the hardware.

Was the computer an Apple official refurbished unit bought direct from Apple?
Did you get an extended warranty from Apple - if it were directly bought there?
Usually these are online purchases from Apple Store; other companies offer
repaired or restored used computers and call them 'refurbished' or they may
have bought actual refurbished from Apple stock; these may be resold on ebay
or via amazon, and may or may not have a residual warranty of some kind.
In some cases the keyboard may fail due to some connection on the logic board
not fitting correctly, or some other loose wire; however if the battery may have
swollen, that could contribute to issues with both trackpad and keyboard.
A visit to an authorized Apple service provider is recommended, or contact the
seller you bought yours from to ask if they may offer suggestions or perhaps a
discount on diagnostic + repair if there is no warranty on the product.

Wireless keyboard caps lock light goes out

I recently got an Apple Wireless Keyboard along with my new iMac. It seems that after a few days, the caps lock light stops coming on when it should. If i restart, the functionality comes back. Is that a software bug or a bluetooth bug, or neither? Anyone else noticing this problem?

You've posted this in the "Older Hardware Products" forum which mostly involves pre-G4 and the pre-wireless era stuff. I can't see an immediate alternative forum but I can't help think there must be a better one than this. On the other hand somebody with bluetooth, airport extreme, Intel Mac, and Leopard may wander through this museum someday and reply to your post.
Knowing nothing about wireless my question is does it lose the functionality or is it just the light going out? Weak battery (I suppose it must have a battery)?

My Apple Bluetooth Keyboard caps lock light wont shut off

My Bluetooth keyboard Caps Lock light wont shut off and it keeps eating the batteries everyday. I have to take the batteries out when Im not using it.
Just wondering if theres a fix to this issue or should I just get another one?
Thanks all.

Take it in for testing....sounds like it has failed.

Wireless keyboard caps lock light not working

Hey, said it all in the title but here's the story...
Got home today and realized that the caps lock LED don't light up anymore. Has anyone else had similar problems? If so, how was your situation rectified?
The keyboard still works fine, don't think its a bad enough problem to have it replaced or be without it for ages. Could see if apple will allow a straight swap at the shop...

Hi Guys
Glad I've just found these posts. Got a new 27" iMac just before Christmas. Greatly relieved that everything worked despite all the reports of cracked screens, etc. BUT - only small problem was the Caps Lock light not always coming on. Rang Apple and got a replacement. Now today I'm having same problems - first the light froze and wouldn't go off. Then it wouldn't come on. I've now tried your advice of switching off the keyboard and taking out the batteries. Works OK now. Hopefuly it'll stay that way. Only thing is - pity Apple couldn't have given me that advice. Reading these posts, there is clearly an ongoing problem with the caps lock light on the wireless keyboard. A problem thats been around for months. Clearly Apple's poilicy, as always, is to admit nothing until it comes up with a fix. Pity that policy appears to extend to not even telling their own employees that there is a problem ...

Caps Lock Light Broken. Well sort of.

About a week ago my caps lock light got very faint, I actually have to be in a completely dark room to see it. I assumed the LED had gone out or the keboard had become faulty. I was going to take it to my apple store to have it looked at when something wierd happened. I started my computer in windows (through bootcamp) and all of a sudden the light on the caps lock key worked fine. So, I can say with certainty this is not a hardware issue, as it only occurs in OSX. Anyone got any ideas to solve this, or know what is even going on?
Thanks

That is strange ...even to have the led at a state in between 'on' or 'off'. Have you tried running your standard maintenance scripts or reset the SMC?

Caps Lock Light Blinking Twice

hi everyone,
I have a hp Pavilion dm4-3011Tx with beats which is about 7 months old. Yesterday I woke it up from sleep and the keyboard lit up and the caps lock light would blink twice every few seconds. I held the power button down and rebooted it and when it started up the fans were running and the light was still blinking. I tried a hard reset and everything and several hours later it started again randomly...A short while later it happened again and this time I was unable to fix the problem. I have already read that it a Bios corruption but I don't know what that means. Can anyone help? Thanks. I have already tried doing a hard reset, taking the battery and the plug out, pressing the windows key and b while turning it on. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

This is for anyone who reads this forum in the future. A corrupt bios fix can be simple or a pain in the butt so stay calm and patient. I've read forum after forum and had any luck with any of the suggestions people have come up with. One way(the easy way) is to power down if you havent already. Remove the battery, and charger if plugged in. Then hold the power button for 30sec, this drain the laptop of any excess life in the computer. Once done, place the battery back in its designated place, and connect charger again if needed. I've heard this has fixed some peoples issues. If you're having my luck, it will be a little harder to fix. Nothing I read helped at all, so i had to rely on my own smarts. Now I'm saying this will work for anyone, but it did for me, so you can try, but im not responsible for any problems you may cause or come across because of it. This should only be done by someone with some computer know-how. What i did was remove the bottom cover of the laptop so i could get to the motherboard and other components. (Make sure power source is removed) This will take time, so be patient and be careful. You dont want stress any cables or circuitry inside the computer. Once you remove the cover, look for a small circular li-ion battery, this is called the CMOS Battery. This is the battery that powers your motherboard while the laptop itself is powered down. So while one would think that having your laptop off for long periods of time is fine, youre actually using up energy stored inside that small battery. Once you locate the CMOS Battery, remove it from the motherboard, remember to be careful though. Now wait about 30sec, thats what i did at least. Once time has passed, put the battery back in its place. After that re-place the the cover and anything else you may have removed. Once done, re-place the battery and/or charger and power on. This is what worked for me, it may or may not work for you, but let me know if it helped or if you have any other questions. Good luck everyone!

Laptop won't start quickly but power wifi and caps lock light keeps blinking

Hi, it has happened before too but rarely but nowadays it happens on daily purposes.
When I switch on my laptop after leaving it for 8-9 hrs, it won't start up but instead power, wifi and caps lock light keep blinking. I tried removing battery and pressing power button for few minutes but nothing happens. Then i left it like that with lights blinking and after 15 20 minutes it booted. I did same yesterday too. I left it like that it booted after 20 minutes..so My question is "why is this happening? Is it a motherboard issue or is it because of cold moisturous weather here and laptop takes time to get warm up?" Should I show it to HP Service center?

Hi @Nishant5788
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you are having a problem getting your notebook to boot up normally. As for what is causing the problem the blinking Caps Lock should tell us what is causing the problem as it should be blinking in a pattern. This HP document Computer Does Not Start and LEDs blink has a chart that will tell you what the blink codes mean.
This is most likely a hardware issue and you can give us a call regarding repair options. You can reach HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or start here if you live outside of North America.

3. plug in the DC power adapter (leave the battery out for now);
4. press the power button

thank you

Hi Moe,
Sounds mostly likje a bad KB, do you have another to test with?
Or...
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

Caps lock light not working, can't tell if it was after upgrade or just use

Has anybody else experienced this?: My Powerbook G4's caps lock light doesn't lit anymore.
Was it because of the ugprade from Tiger 10.4.10 to Leopard 10.5.0?
Anybody?

Geez, it's working again... I think there is some type of malfunction when waking it up from sleep.

Caps Lock Light Doesn't Work

Hey There,
I don't know since when this happens but whenever I login to my Arch box, my caps lock light doesn't work so I can't really know if it's on or not unless I try manually. At first I thought that the light is gone but in Windows it workes without any problems.
Any thoughts, suggestions ?

Yeah, it is Xorg 7.3 related, in my investigation I have found that this is a known issue of Xorg 7.3 so upstream is going to give a fix soon, or so I hope.
