Compaq CQ60-615Dx keyboard displays wrong key. Problem is only with the 2 w s and x keys.

Problem is only with 2 w s x keys.  Tried updating BIOS and num lock suggestion.  Looking for instruction for removing keyboard or any suggestions

Hi,
This may well be a Hardware issue with the keyboard itself, but re-seating the ribbon connection to the Motherboad and the keyboard is certainly worth trying.
The procedure to remove the keyboard is detailed starting on Page 56 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.

  • Trouble with the brush tool and shortcut keys on a Mac

    If I select the brush tool and use it on an image, then go to use shortcut keys like to make the brush bigger, or smaller, to zoom in/out, or change the colour for the mask etc, it won't work.  I need to select another tool then go back to the brush tool to make the shortcuts work again.  After working for a bit again the shortcuts won't work.  Has anyone got any idea on how to fix this?
    I am on a Mac.

  • IE problems, but only with the Japanese part of my site

    I run an English school in Japan and after some searching on the internet found the suggestion of creating 2 sites and linking them, one in each language. My site is at http://web.me.com/canadaclubjp/ . The seems to work well on my Mac but I'm having problems with IE. It seems that the Japanese part of the site has elements disappearing for some reason. I recently added an extra navigation bar at the bottom, but that doesn't seem to be any problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    propably you can try on firefox or you have to include japanese fonts code for IE

  • To be able to edit images in ps from lr I have to launch lr with the ctrl, alt, and shift keys pressed in win 8.1.

    This was the resolution by adobe techs. Was only supposed to be necessary for each catalog once if I check its integrity, but that turns out to not be the case. Don't even need the integrity check for this to work. (Uninstalling and reinstalling everything a couple of times didn't help.)
    Fix, anyone?

    Hi,
    Since it works fine with same command in Windows 7, this issue may be caused by Windows 8.1 client side.
    According to the error message, I find an blog for Exchange server side. For your reference:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2010/02/04/3409289.aspx
    Just in case, please open IIS manager and switch to Default Web Site. Right-click Default Web Site, and then click Edit Bindings to double check the configuration for HTTP:
    1. Make sure the value of Hostname is empty.
    2. Ensure the port is 80.
    For your question, I have test this command in Windows 8, it works fine.
    Is there any extra software installed on it? please try to run Windows with clean boot, also we can try this within a new Windows.
    Besides, please try to telnet port 5985 and manually open this port in firewall ports.

  • Keyboard displays wrong character

    Hi,
             my notebook keyboard displays wrong character . MY keyboard language setting is correct .I have tried many solution but none of them works for me. also when i press some key it automatically goes to vairous section of my window.  what is the solution of it.??  thanks.

    @sraban 
    Have you tried a system restore to a point before the problem occured? That can help if there has since been a driver , update or other software installed, either by you, automatically, or by accident, that is the source of the problem.
    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
    Here is the driver page for your notebook:  HP Pavilion 15-e034tx Notebook PC Drivers
    Did you try the things in that keyboard troubleshooting page I posted, and if so did you see any change or notice any errors?
    Also, for your convenience, see the: HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide
    With that you can find the part numbers and see instructions on how to remove or replace the keyboard if it is defective. Those same instructions can also help with cleaning.
    Let me know if that helps at all.

    the problem I have since I upgraded to Mavericks version 10.9.1
    The problem appears only with Mail not with other programs, not even with my browser.
    When I try to zoom the text of an e-mail I received or sent , I can no longer use the keys Command + to enlarge the text, although I can reduce it with Command -.
    As I have a problem with my eyes, This is a serious matter for me.
    When I write an e-mail, if I select text and press Command +, it just displaces the text to the right.
    Now, my husband has a USB keyboard. If he connects it to my computer, his regular Command + does not work either, but  he uses the extended keyboard, then it works. Unfortunately, he needs it for a musical application which does not work with a wireless keyboard.

    Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
    My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
    I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
    Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10".

  • Setting the blank f5 and f6 keys for just the bluetooth keyboard?

    Hello,
    I just got the apple bluetooth wireless keyboard for my mac book pro. I use it for when my computer is linked to my tv.
    I am wondering, how do I set the blank f5 and f6 keys to something? My mbp model is older so all the function keys are layed out differently (the audio levels are f4 and f5 instead of f11 and f12)
    I want to keep my laptop function keys exactly how they are. Its just the f5 and f6 on the bluetooth I want to change. I cant seem to figure out how to do it in the preferences. Also, it looks like theres no way to choose just the wireless for this situation?
    Please help!
    Thanks
    - Mike

    Hello Mike:

    I believe you would have to write a routine to have those keys recognized for specific purposes. I do not do that, so I cannot give any guidance.

    i accidently downloaded something that made my webcam flash on spuradically even once i deleted it. when i restarted my computer it got stuck at the white loading screen with the grey apple and wont go past there..what is wrong? will applecare cover this?  my computer also slowed down drastically before it stopped working..thanks! HELP PLEASE!

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
         a. Boot into the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 7
    Repeat Step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 8
    This step applies only to older Macs (not current models) that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery. Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a gray screen at boot. Typically the boot failure will be preceded by loss of the startup disk and system clock settings. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 9
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. If you can't get to an Apple Store, go to another authorized service provider.

  • Itunes screen display seems locked. Scrolling only moves the bottom part of list, top of list doesn't move

    Itunes music list displays but won't scroll the whole page. When scrolling throught the list, the bottom of  part of the on screen list moves, but the top portion of the list says locked on the top part of the screen. (Example; Like in an excell program where you have locked cells that dont' move as you scroll through the rest of the cells)
    Any ideas?

    I get erratic loss of input capability into my Touch. On some days in the browser ,the W key doesn't work but the adjacent Q or E keys work just fine when I slide my finger back and forth. A few hours later, it works just fine. Last night I was entering a new location in the weather, the keyboard worked fine but after a search, it would not let me click on the new location to set it up. I could get a blue background but it would not click to complete the entry. Again, I tried it 20 min later and it worked just fine. Same thing on iTunes, there are occasions when the screen is unresponsive to my input and other times when it works just fine. I have one of those plastic covers sold at the Apple store to protect the screen and maybe that's the problem. However, recent rollerblade fall proved the worth of the protector as the cover was deeply scored but the screen was fine (was erratic before fall, not caused by fall). Touch is not jailbroken. Don't want to give up the protection film but I'm not sure whether there is a problem with my iTouch or just with my touch.

    If there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
    You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
    Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
    Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.

  • My G5 won't boot up. The Gray screen comes on and it thinks about it until the fan revs up like it is about to explode. A friend said to start it up with the OS disk and then go to utilities. Didin't work. Any suggestions? Isn't there a key stroke to help

    Oh, so this is where I ask my question. Sorry, first time here. As I was saying in my long intro, the gray screen come up and the thing is spinning at the bottom, but nothing happens. Then the fan starts reving up like it is about to explode and I have to manually shut it off. A friend told me to start it up with the OS disk and then go to utilities. I couldn't find the thing, so I went out and bought another. Needless to say, it didn't work. Is there a key stroke to help jump start the machine? How can I get into this thing? I would prefer not to take it in because there are a lot of things on there I don't want just anyone to have access to.Thanks, in advance, for your help!

    Your drive does need to be repaired, and best things to buy are another backup recovery drive, with a small OS X partition; a copy of Disk Warrior is expensive @ $90 but excellent and best.
    Never bother with or use the drive or reinstall while there are errors. Don't take a "clean' bill from Apple Disk Utility to mean there are no errors. Only that it didn't find what it looked for.

    Make sure to have multiple backup sets and of your system so if there is a serious problem, you can just erase and restore to be back runninig.
    Sounds like your G5 though needs PMU reset, not PRAM, and the best way for those is to clear nvram instead. might even want to check for dust; tell what System Profile says (later) as to "PowerMacX,Y" or "MacProX,1"
    http://www.apple.com/support/powermac or /macpro
    http://www.apple.com/support/sitemap/
    The Utility menu is on the menu bar of an "OS X Install DVD" and at the point where you get to but stop at "install....' for OS X. you probably do need to install OS X on another drive to work from.
    Oh, a real severe issue and damage to the drive directory or filesystem CAN in cases prevent booting from DVD (the system still tries to find and see what boot volumes are present) and can help to pull or disconnect the drive. Putting a drive in a FW case to turn on after startup is very useful.
