Deploying USB Enhanced Performance [Wired] Keyboard settings

Hi. Is there any way to deploy the settings of the USB Enhanced Performance Keyboard settings so that all computers with the keyboard get the default settigs? Got 500+ computers to deploy.

Hi,
there is no easy solution however this might be worth trying sincle I see it as feasible and maybe you can even use Migration Assistant if you do not have any other tool (I'm not expert on Migration Assistant).
1. Manually export the registry settings from the current user.
2. Change “HKEY_CURRENT_USER” to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE”, in the exported registry file.
3. Remove any reference to “\users\username”.
4. Then, import the you modified registry file to another machine.
SEE ATTACHAED FILE PLS.
Let me know if this is sufficient and it helps.

  • Assigning buttons on Lenovo USB Enhanced Performance Keyboard

    I have recently made Mozilla Firefox my default browser (it's much quicker to start up than Explorer), however I would still like the Internet button on my USB Enhanced Performance Keyboard to open Explorer, which my son prefers (it currently opens Firefox). When I try to reconfigure the button I can't find Internet Explorer amongst the choices I am given.
    I have reconfigured the Lock desktop button to open Firefox. I am sure I had the keyboard set up to do what I want it to do before I reformatted the hard drive yesterday.

    I'm glad to report that I've been using this new driver for a month now with no issues... 

  • USB Enhanced Performanc​e Keyboard utility crash

    USB Enhanced Performance Keyboard (Wired) : skd881x daemon has stopped working
    What I'm getting here is a consistent crash of the OSD / button management daemon (Skdaemon.exe) on a standard french Vista 32bit install. This might be a duplicate of this unresolved problem, although the OS is 32 bit here.
    I can reproduce the crash easily by using either one of the Volume+, Volume- or Mute buttons at any time as long as the Play/Pause button has never been pressed before. If I start the daemon, choose "Play/Pause" (the indication "Play/Pause" appears in the OSD), then the instance of the daemon will never crash afterwards and I will be able to use the volume buttons until the next reboot.
    I have tried :
    using the keyboard configuration tool to change most of the settings,
    clean uninstalling/reinstalling the (latest) driver and utility,
    looking up for a solution elsewhere,
    to no avail.
    I would appreciate any pointer to resolve that annoying problem.
    EDIT : updated the title so it appears more explicit from the forum view

    I know that bumping my own thread is not really a display of gentleman's manners, but I would like to know if there is a way to reach lenovo directly, at least to make the company aware of this annoying bug (which does seem to be recurrent). I can't seem to find it as I'm lost in the endless cross-references between lenovo and IBM support pages, and a part of the online support doesn't seem to be available in France

  • Enhanced Performance Wireless Keyboard

    I got recently an Enhanced Performance Wireless Keyboard and Mouse with plan to use it with my new ThinkPad W500. Mouse works without problems.
    However the keyboard works properly when Language for non-Unicode programs is set to US English. When language changed to Arabic, keyboard loses characters, freezes for several seconds, etc. I tried it with W500 with Vista Business SP1, T41p with XP SP3, and - more interesting - with Dell Latitude D420 with XP SP3. On all those laptops I got identical results. With keyboard language set to Arabic, the Arabic characters do show when typing in Word or Notepad.
    However, when connected to my desktop (DELL Optiplex GX520, XP SP3) the keyboard works correctly with US English and Arabic selected as non-Unicode locale.
    Keyboard P/N is 41A5219, S/N 00012663.
    Tried other wireless keyboard/mouse set (Genius TwinTouch LuxeMate Pro) - it works OK on T41p language independent.

    We purchased 10 ThinkPads with the same keyboard and mouse, the keyboard is a bit slow, but the mouse is absolutely horrible, the choppy motion and falling asleep all the time is killing productivity.  Has anyone had any success with the fix for this?  need help ASAP.

  • Problems under Windows USB Drivers (Apple Wired Keyboard)

    Hello guys,
    somehow I have some issues after installing Windows 7 regarding the USB Drivers: if I install the "Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Installation Disk - 1E31"-drivers, doesn't matter if I do it from Intel's or Apple's webpage, the USB Ports of my Apple Wired Keyboard (A1243) don't work anymore; it says "Not enough power". I have already tried that workaround found on the web, by increasing the output mAh through regedit, but the point is that after installing these drivers, the section "Power Management" isn't shown anymore in the device manager.
    I'm having a Macbook Pro Late 2012 with Retina display

    Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows.
    Whereas, not everyone here with an Intel iMac has installed, tried to install or has experience with BC & Windows, everyone there has or at least has an interest. You may attract help more quickly there.
    The Forums are at the bottom of the main Apple Discussions page under Windows Compatible Technology. Here is a link;

  • Lenovo Enhanced Performance USB Keyboard - Qualitätsproblem oder .....?

    Ich habe mir letzte Woche bei einem Händler in einem namhaften Onlineauktionhaus eine SK-8815 (Lenovo Enhanced Performance USB, PN: 41A4975) im deutschen Tastaturlayout als originalverpackte Neuware gekauft. Als die Lieferung vorgestern hier ankam, musste ich feststellen, dass es an der Qualität der Tastatur ziemlich hapert: die Tasten zur Steuerung des Musikplayers oben links sitzen extrem lose.Was aber noch viel mehr auffällt, ist die Beschriftung der Tastatur - diese ist ziemlich schief aufgebracht und auch unterschiedlich hell.Ich habe mal versucht zumindest die Positionierung der Aufdrucke mit der Kamera meines Smartphones einzufangen:Am meisten fällt es beim 'Ö' und den anderen Umlauten auf, die horizontal und vertikal ziemlich aus der Reihe fallen. Ich habe auch einmal die Seriennummer der Tastatur hier überprüft:Lenovo - Garantiestatus überprüfenwobei mir gemeldet wurde, dass nichts zu vermelden sei 'Kein Ergebnis - Bitte prüfen und erneut versuchen'. Ist nun einfach nur die Qualität relativ mau oder bin ich möglicherweise einer Produktfälschung aufgesessen? Sofern es ein gefälschtes Produkt ist, ist anerkennenswert, dass es einwandfrei mit der Konfigurationssoftware für das EnhancedPerformance Keyobard von der Lenovo-Homepage zusammenarbeitet.  

    I have 2 long  .LOG files.
    If need I will upload them.

  • Keyboard - Enhanced Performance vs Preferred Pro - reliability, tactility, etc.

    I'm comparing...
    73P2620  Lenovo Enhanced Performance USB Keyboard - US English  39.00
    73P5220  Lenovo Preferred Pro USB Keyboard - US English  29.00
    I don't need the extra USB hub capability, so judging from the specs, I would choose the Preferred Pro model.  However, can anyone having experience using either of them, chime in and comment on everything else that matters - reliability, tactility and feel, lags, joy of using, etc?
    Thank you.

    apart from the extra features, the feel and tactility of the two keyboard are the same.
    The keyboards are okay, but the feel and tactility is not the industry best, reliability is okay they are quite reliable. I rather prefer the Microsoft keyboards.

  • USB port power management issue on apple aluminium wired keyboard after upgrade to 10.8.5

    Hi there,
    Since I upgraded my imac (late 2012) from 10.8.4 to 10.8.5 today, i can't plug any usb flash drive, or my iPhone, to the USB port of the wired keyboard anymore; I have a power management message asking to plug the usb device to the imac directly!!
    It was working perfectly just before the upgrade, is it a bug, any idea?

    FYI...
    I tried reporting the bug but so far have had no luck being able to do so.
    I went to the developer center as Eric suggested and signed in with my Apple ID.
    Once there I clicked on "Bug Reporting".
    That took me to a Bug Reporting page with the heading "Submitting Bugs and Feedback".
    On the side of that page is a little box that says "Apple Bug Reporter: Sign in with the Apple ID you used to register as an Apple Developer to submit a bug."
    (This step seems somewhat ridiculous since I had to sign in with my Apple ID just to get this far. Now it wants me to sign in again.)
    When I click the  the "Sign in" button I get this:
    An error has occurred. Please report the error to Apple Inc. by emailing the error detail to [email protected]
    So, it seems the bug reporter doesn't work. This has been going on since the time of my last post here.

  • Enhanced Performance Keyboard - Model 73P2620

    I ordered one of these and received today.  I love the way it looks and feels. 
    I am really disappointed that the USB hub on the keyboard is appearing as USB 1.1 and not USB 2.0 as the spec page indicates:
    http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:item.detail?GroupID=38&Code=73P2620&current-category-id=C39222A11DEF47F490A58490A545DAC0
    Now, I was willing to concede that perhaps my system wasn't playing nice for some reason, so I went through quite a few things to see if maybe there was an issue with USB on the box.
    Nothing I have tried has worked.
    Does anyone use this keyboard and have they found the USB hub to appear as USB 2.0 or 1.1?
    I have run some benchmarks on a USB 2.0 Flash drive and the performance difference when it's in a USB 2.0 port and a 1.1 port on the keyboard is quite significant, so this isn't just a mis-reporting of the USB standard by the driver.
    Help please?  I want to keep this keyboard, but the primary reason I bought it, was for the USB 2.0 hub.
    Thanks,
    Blake

    I think I see what the issue is now.
    The description on the keyboard spec page (posted above), says USB 2.0 Full Speed.  This is actually USB 1.1, or at least operates at USB 1.1 speeds. 
    True USB 2.0 would say Hi Speed. 
    Here's a write-up on that:  http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20031003-2927.html
    I don't like the use of USB 2.0 and Full Speed in the same breath.  It's misleading.  So, I will now contact Lenovo (if they will respond to me), to see if I can just do a straight up return on the keyboard.
    James, does your keyboard say 'lenovo' in the upper right, or IBM?  Mine says lenovo, and I'm going to guess that the IBM version of this keyboard has USB 2.0 Hi Speed ports on it.

  • Wired Keyboard USB Power Supply Problem

    Hello,
    I'm a proud owner of an iMac 27" which I ordered with the Apple Wired Keyboard because it was equipped with two additional USB Ports.
    I'm using the Astro Gaming Astro A40 with their Mixamp and it works perfectly fine if I plug it into the keyboard.
    Now I installed Bootcamp with Windows 7 Professional and it tells me the power supply in the keyboard is to low for my headset and my Mixamp.
    Does anybody know a solution for that problem?
    Why does Windows cry about that while Mac is perfectly fine with this.
    I hope somebody can help me. Thank You
    With best regards
    ChickenDuy

    From
    Support FAQ - Astro Gaming
    For PC Users: Much like discrete graphics, audio, or physics hardware free up CPU cycles and make our games run faster, the USB drivers built into the MixAmp provide a simple plug and play solution to offloading communication and music duties to the MixAmp.
    My guess would be that these drivers are not loaded in OSX. When you run Windows via bootcamp, these drivers are loaded. Based on the function described, they draw more power from your USB bus than they would in the OS X environment. Yet the machine is still only willing to supply 500 mA to the particular hub. I think, therein lies the problem. Or, atleast, a theory.

  • HT1665 Is there a way to connect a wired keyboard to Ipad2?  Via USB connector/adapter?

    Is there a way to connect a wired keyboard to Ipad2?  Via USB adapter?

    Actually there have been reports of certain USB keyboards working through the USB adapters like the Apple Camera Connection Kit .  But they are far from consistent.  The best bet is to find a simple keyboard without any bells or whistles as you want one that consumes the least amount of power.
    But yes there some that do work through there.

  • Will any usb extender work with my apple wired keyboard?

    I'm about to buy a apple wired keyboard with the numeric keypad on ebay. I don't have an apple USB extender but I do have a normal usb extender that came with my old pc wifi dongle. Will this work with the apple keyboard? I've tried googleing but I've gotten many mixed answers, some saying yes some saying no.

    Yes, a USB extension cable with a male and female end will work.

  • USB Enhanced Keyboard Media Key always starts Autostart

    I bought the USB Enhanced Keyboard today, and am very happy with it, except for 1 single flaw. When the driver is installed, everytime I press the play-key, it does not only start playback in my media player, but it also attempts to autostart whatever CD or DVD happens to be in my optical drive. When I have not installed any drivers, it does not show this behaviour. I have not found any way to remove this setting in the driver, so does anybody know if I overlooked something, or how I can prevent this autostart from happening?
    I use Vista Home Premium 64bit
    The P/N of my keyboard is: 41A4992
    Thanks in advance.
    EDIT: For some reason the driver has suddenly started crashing when using the shortcut keys, or even worse, simply not even starting at all. Is there a solution to all this? I like this keyboard, but am starting to consider returning it to the shop, things like this should not happen.

  • Issues on USB ports in wired Apple Keyboard in OSX 10.9.1

  • New Wired Keyboard USB 2.0 underpowered.

    I recently bought one of Apples alluminum wired keyboards, i dont have any troubles with it at all other than the usb 2.0 ports on the side. I attempted to plug my USB key into the port and an error message came up saying that the port is underpowered and that i should plug in my usb key to a power sorce, though it cleary has no wa of doing so. I tried the other side of the keyboard and recived the same error messge, any ideas? I do have a bunch of things plugged into my computer though hardley any of them were in use and all are self powered.

    I am at work right now where I am working on a dual 2GHz PowerPC G5, connected to a 20" apple cinema display. I have my plastic (white) apple USB keyborad connected through the displays powered USB ports, when I try to connect my flash drive to the keyboards ports it gives me the low voltage warning. However if I plug the same flash drive into the back of the display it works flawlessly. FOr this reason I would assume that your keyboard, just doesnt carry eough juice to power the flash drive, a solution to this would be to purchase yourself a self powered usb 2.0 hub and connect this to the keyboards usb port, or to the computer itself.
