Extended keyboard no longer works with some games

I've searched the discussion groups; can't find an answer. Some games that used to work with my Power Mac G5 start up fine, then going into the mission/action/etc. my extended white wired keyboard stops working (no keys work at all). The mouse works, but not the keyboard.
So far the games affected are Battlefield 1942, Medal of Honor, Myth II and III, and the new game, Babylon 5: I Found Her. Ghost Recon works fine, just in case someone wants to say its the game.
I've tried resetting PRAM, opening in Safe Mode, plugging the keyboard into the other USB port, and deleting all the game plist files. All these games worked before with the same hardware, but before 10.5. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Thank for responding. I'm running 10.5.6; haven't "updated" since I know there are problems. I can say for certain that those games worked fine under 10.4.x. Also other games work fine, and I have no access to another keyboard. I'm convinced from its behavior that something in the 10.5.x series is the problem. That's because the keyboard works fine with those games while setting the options, selecting missions (e.g.), but when the map downloads (or other starting function) and it's ready to go, the keyboard stops working (or, more precisely, the game no longer recognizes input from the keyboard). The mouse (connected to the keyboard), works.

  • Apple wireless keyboard no longer working with boot camp Windows 7

    Hi,
    I've had Boot Camp installed for about half a year now with no problems.
    Yesterday my wireless keyboard stopped working with it, it also appears that bluetooth isn't in the device manager or in the control panel,  it could no linger detect either my magic mouse or keyboard despite having fresh new batteries. They do however still work with my Mac OSX partition. It also lets me hold down alt to choose which OS to boot into on startup however when it gets to the log in screen for windows the keyboard stopped working.
    I've tried unpairing them in OSX then trying it in Windows but like I said bluethooth doesnt even appear to be there and it wont detect them. I've also tried reinstalling the apple drivers twice, still doesn't work.
    If it helps I have a early 2011 iMac 21.5inch and it's Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    This may be just a Boot Camp issue, if no one here can help you may also want to post in the Boot Camp forum.

  • 6/9/11 update old usb keyboard no longer works with macbook pro

    Hi I have been using my old Imac usb keyboard with my macbook pro at work since I got my macbook pro. But as of yesterday I have not been able to use it anymore.  Any suggestions to a fix or do I have to buy a newer keyboard?  I need the numbers pad to entering data.
    Any suggestions would b great.

    Your message would be easier to decode if you had proofread it before posting.
    Does your keyboard work when the mouse is plugged directly into the computer instead of into the keyboard, or does the keyboard not work at all? If not at all, then it sounds as though you're right in guessing that the keyboard isn't getting power for some reason (bad cable? bad connection inside the KB? USB port on computer shut down?) If the KB works when the mouse isn't plugged into it, then the mouse and KB together are demanding more power than the computer's USB port can supply, and neither is getting what it needs when the mouse is connected to the KB. In that case, plug the mouse directly into the computer to use it.
    The USB port in your keyboard probably doesn't put out enough power for the mouse you are using. This is typical of older keyboards, which were designed to power old-style electromechanical mice rather than the laser mice that are commonplace today.

  • Keyboard no longer works with Citrix Receiver after upgrading to OSX 10.9.5

    I use Citrix Receiver to connect to my office systems when I work from home. The office systems are Windows 7 based and I work at home on a Imac. Up to yesterday everything worked like a dream. Then I upgraded from OSX 10.9.4 to 10.9.5 and sine then my keyboard has stooped responding when I am connected to my office system. When I close Citrix the keyboard works OK. I tried to connect using a MacBook still on 10.9.4 and there are no problems with the keyboard in Citrix. What do I do to get the keyboard to work under 10.9.5?

    Citrix Receiver is upgraded to 11.9.0. http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/356870-receiver-for-mac-119-tech-preview-for -os-x-yosemite/
    It works good together with OSX 10.10 Yosemite.
    I think they did a great job releasing an update so soon after the release of Yosemite.
    I upgraded to Yosemite on a mid 2011 iMac. It all performs better that OSX 10.9.5. No issues so far.

  • Apple Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard no longer works after OSX update

    After installing the latest OSX update yesterday (something about iChat encryption), Apple Bluetooth Keyboard no longer works with my iMac.
    When I restarted the iMac after installation was completed, the iMac would no longer recognise my Bluetooth Apple wireless keyboard. I've tried with 2 other Apple wireless keyboards as well, but to no avail. None of them work with the iMac any longer. All 3 keyboards work with my PowerMac Quad G5 though.
    The iMac "sees" the keyboards, but the pairing doesn't go through because the iMac doesn't seem to recognise the keystrokes when entering the pairing code.
    I had to go out and buy myself a Microsoft wired keyboard to be able to restart the iMac (couldn't enter the login password without a keyboard).
    My bluetooth mighty mouse works flawlessly though.
    Very frustrating. Can anyone help?

  • Command, Control, and Option keys no longer works with Citrix Receiver after upgrading to OSX 10.9.5

    At first my keyboard did not work with Citrix Receiver after upgrading to OSX 10.9.5 and I found the workaround by using "cmd + tab," however, once my keyboard work within Citrix, the "command, control, and option" keys no longer work.  Does anyone have a remedy for this?

  • 3rd party keyboard no longer works properly with Yosemite

    Prior to the update to Yosemite my third party bluetooth keyboard paired without issue on my wizened 2007 MBP workhorse. I unfortunately spilled some liquid on the keyboard recently. A few keys no longer respond. I will be replacing the keyboard, being cheeper than replacing the entire computer. I brought out my third party bluetooth keyboard, and it initially paired fine under Yosemite. I went into the keyboard preferences to see if I could improve the key mapping with the function keys. Selected "set up bluetooth keyboard" which seemed to reset the connection. Since, the keyboard no longer worked completely. Letters, numbers, and function keys, respond, but none of the letter keys. I re-paired it multiple times to the same effect (forget - pair). The keyboard still pairs fine with my iPhone 6, with the Apple Mouse still pairs fine with the laptop. Is there any way to fix this problem? The keyboard technically is pairing!
    I am using an old apple USB keyboard as plan B until the main keyboard is replaced. However, this is especially frustrating, because one of the reasons why I bought that keyboard was in case the old laptop's keyboard developed issues!

    Do either of these typical troubleshooting steps make any difference?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * click the globe or padlock to the left of the address in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • Function keys no longer working with a new keyboard...

    I got a new keyboard and my function keys no longer work with it.  I am used to have them used in the standard format, i.e. F10-F12 control the voume, etc.  I have the "Use all f1,f2, etc." button clicked.  I have also tried restarting my computer.  Any thoughts?

    Try doing a SMC reset and PRAM reset.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4

    Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
    5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • Re: Keyboard no longer being recognized in game apps!

    This one is quite a baffling.  I finally upgraded from an iMac PPC G5 Light Sensor system running 10.5.9 to the new iMac Intel 3.1 GHz quad core i5 running 10.7.2 with 16 GB of RAM.  Great system, loving the 27" monitor but I did invest some extra cash in a 2 GB video card to make game play that much better.  That said, when I first got the system fully operational I tried playing The Force Unleashed using the wireless keyboard and track pad, it was a tricky set up but everything worked perfectly.
    A couple days later I came back to play the game and surprise the keyboard was no longer recognized except when I use "command Q" to quit the game, weird.  I open a couple of other games and the same story though I am unable to quit out of those games, that was annoying.  I tried deleting all the bluetooth devices and re-adding them, no dice.  I tried using a usb keyboard, also no affect.  I went out and bought an xBox USB game controller and loaded the software to use it. The controller is seen and I was able to configure the xBox controller in the finder but once again it doesn't work in the game and The Force Unleashed even has an option for it.
    I have gone over the system prefs panes for both the keyboard and the track pad, resetting them to factory defaults but still the same story.  This is baffling because the keybaord and track pad worked great for a few days and now I can't seem to get any interface device to work with the games I own.  I am now guessing it's one of two things, first when the bluetooth interface data was imported from my PPC iMac it got corrputed and is causing these problems.  I say this because the keyboard that came with the new system failed to work even after I delete the older bluetooth keyboard profile and recreated a new profile for the new keyboard (the newer keyboard magically started working after many hours of attempting to re-associating it with the new iMac).  Second, there could be some odd instability with Lion's interface drivers or the interface driver architecture as I have been a Mac engineer for many years and have never seen anything quite as baffling as this problem.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!!  In the meantime I am building an external tech drive with plans to boot from it and run DiskWarrior 4.4 against the new system in the hope of repairing an corrupted files that might be causing this issue.  Cheers!

    Vaio wouldn't know Mac file system from a hole in the wall unless it has Mediafour's Macdrive software.
    It isn't so much updating 10.3, it is more updating your Disk Warrior to match your operating system. What version of Disk Warrior do you have?
    P.S. note this is the 10.4 forums for Tiger. 10.3 is Panther. Future questions regarding 10.3 should be directed to the 10.3 and earlier forums. Though I'm happy to continue to try to solve your problem here.

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
