Enter button doesn't work at all help!

The enter key on my Macbook Air does not work at all anymore. I did not do anything differently and nothing happened to it - no spill, did not drop the laptop - nada. I have reset everything to defaults, open the key and clean under it. I am really hoping that it is not a hardware problem - but to ensure that it isnt I need to wear out ALL possible software problem. ANY SUGGESTIONS? please and thank you.

  • IPhone 4 - power button doesn't work anymore! HELP

    I have a problem with my iPhone 4.. the power button doesn't work anymore... if I press it, it doesn't response (i can't hear the click, when i push it).. how much does it cost for repair it? my warranty is expired...

    So it doesn't do anything at all? The sound clicks are one thing, but if the screen locks, then it works.
    It will be $149 if I am correct from other posters.

    My phone sleep button does not work at all I can't turn phone on or off or unlock it

  • Enter button doesn't work in address bar.

    After inputting a site address in the address bar, either through typing or from the history/autocomplete, pressing enter does not send me to the page, and I have to manually click the go button on the right.
    Disabling all my plugins didn't make any difference.

    That issue can be caused by the AVG Safe Search extension.

  • Sleep/wake button doesn't work? Please help

    I can't turn on my ipod nano, it seems that the button is jammed, it simply doesn't respond.

    Take the iPod to an Apple store or an AASP especially if you are still under warranty or have Apple Care.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • Font button doesn't work at all

    I'm building my first site in iWeb 09. All software updates are applied. I want to change the font of my draft page text but, whether I highlight specific text or click on a text box, nothing happens when I next click on the Font button at the foot of the page. It may be relevant that, if I try to start the Font Book app, it crashes immediately.

  • Enter button won't work at all on Surface tablet.

    Exactly what the title says. I can receive messages but not send them.

    Try a Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears
    If there is still a problem:
    1.Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
    2.Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. &#8232;Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings
    3.Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
    4.If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.

  • Stuck on apple logo and Home button doesn't work, help please?

    Well, I dropped my iPod Touch 4g by accident and since that day, the home button hasn't really been working that well. Its very hard to use since you have to press it in really hard to get it to work and sometimes it doesn't even work at all. Anways, I was skyping with my girl and I didn't notice that I had to charge the iPod and it died on me so I was like what ever its normal and started to charge it. When it turned on, it got stuck on the Apple logo and its been there for more than a day now? What can I do? I know about the Press Home + Sleep button together but the Home button doesn't work at all anymore. I tried everything really. I tried to connect it to itunes and see if I could restore it but it won't recognize it no matter where I connect it. Tried it on 3 different computers and none worked at all.  I can't take it to an Apple store since there isn't any close to where I live and I really don't have anyone to take me there. So is there any other solution to fix my problem at home? or is it messed up completely? Someone please help me

    I have this same issue. But also, it isn't just that the lock/home button stops working, all buttons stop working. Even if you switch it to silent sounds are still played. I just got my iphone Thursday. Went to school the next day and pulled it out, it happened while it was locked I guess because my screen was black and I couldn't do anything! Thought it died already! This was around 12. Finally I pulled it out of my pocket again at around 3 and it showed the Apple logo and acted like it had just started back up. Which is what always happens after I get stuck playing a game or something. Help please, has happened two or three times just today.

  • Ran update this morning.  Now power button doesn't work and soft boot brings to the battery/cord icon as if there's no power.  Can't get into anything.  Any help on this?

    Update for Windows was run this morning---it actually made me run it twice.  I was initially able to use my phone but now I get nothing but the battery/power cord symbol.  The power button doesn't work at all.  I have tried soft boot of the down volume and power button.  Seems to reboot but same screen appears.  I cannot access anything on the phone.  Is there any help on this? 

        Hey there, javadan! Thanks for letting us know about the problem with your software upgrade. I'm very sorry for the issues you're having. Based on the two attempts to process, I would have to say there was a problem with both install attempts. You may need to process a factory reset. Which model device do you have?

  • How to unlock an iphone 3gs when it's sim locked and the lock button doesn't work???

    I bought this iphone 3gs off an app. I just want to use it as an ipod. it is sim locked (with two attempts left) and the lock button doesn't work at all. What can I do? I just want to use it as an ipod.
    I have also tried everything. I took the sim card out and put it back in again. And I have also left it out. And I have tried connecting it to itunes but I need to unlock. (some of these were suggested by the seller)
    Please help me.
    im

    My guess - and this is completely a guess - is that the SIM in that phone has a PIN that was added to it by the previous owner. Whomever you bought it from didn't bother to check for this (or didn't care) before they got it from the previous owner.
    You need to get a new AT&T SIM for that phone - you could even borrow one from a friend if they have one that will fit the phone. You would only need the SIM to activate it.
    There is no way to activate an iPhone without a SIM in it, even if you don't plan to use it as anything other than an iPod.

  • EDIT button doesn't work in smart web printing.

    My edit button doesn't work at all in smart web printing.  I can clip & print okay but I can't edit my clips at all.  I have vista & ie8.  When I click edit, everything grays out in the smart web window & ie8 stops working. I have to recover my tabs but smart web is still grayed out. I have updated to the newest smart web numerous times but keep having the same problem, Please help!!!!

    Reinstalling iPhoto would be the way to go. Hit F4 on the keyboard, hold your mouse on the iPhoto icon until it starts jiggling, then click the black cross that appears in the top right of it. Then, head to the Mac App Store (click the Apple in the very top left, it's the 4th one down) and then reinstall iPhoto. Deleting the iPhoto app shouldn't delete your iPhoto Library, but if you're worried, you can always make a backup... Time Machine will do it, otherwise - manual!
    Go to Finder. Then in the menu bar along the top, click Go, then Home, then Pictures. In the pictures folder, you'll find the photo library file. Copy it to your desktop or an external disk.
    Hope this helps

  • SMS send button doesn't work !

    Hi
    I can't send SMS messages ! The blue "Send" button doesn't work ! All the other buttons (QWERTY board, To: etc) are fine.
    Anyone seen this problem ?
    Running 2.0.1 on 3G.
    Regards and thanks in advance.
    John

    Try turning the phone on/off....I once had a button stop "working" and it fixed it......I have had certain buttons not work in different applications (like the facebook application) and that would just be an application error, not an error with iphone itself, so it might also be an error with your text message application. If it continues, make a genius bar appointment....they are really helpful and sympathetic! And purchase the applecare protection....great protection for the price (although it doesn't protect against damage caused by you, like dropping or water damage, which *****)
