Flex 2-15 Keyboard/Trackpad no longer working

Basically the keyboard/trackpad are no longer working for my lapop (Flex 2-15).
Here's the run down of what I know:
1) Function keys still work such as brightness up or down and turning off the screen.
2) In device manager there is the yellow traigle with an exclamation point for the trackpad, but the keyboard driver seems functioning properly.
3) On the mouse driver it says Code 10, timed out.
4) I've tried uninstalling the mouse driver and restarting to see if windows would install automatically, and the driver comes back, but with the same code 10.
5) Touch screen works fine.
6) Running Windows 8.1.
7) Tried restoring from factory settings and the issue is still here.
8) USB mouse and keyboard work perfectly fine.
9) Tried switching modes to see if keyboard/trackpad was disabled, but no luck there either.
Greatly appreciate some help here as this is beyond frustrating since I've only had this laptop for a little over a month and can no longer return it. Also Lenovo doesn't support anything besides hardware and wants $70-140 to troubleshoot this issue.
Thanks!
Solved!

They were trying to charge me for a "Software failure" which apparently isn't covered. I'm almost positive it's driver issues of some sort that they needed update seeing as the function keys work on the keyboard but the rest dont because the trackpad doesn't work.
But if they're going to try and charge me for a software issue I might as well get them to replace the keyboard under warrenty just to rule that out. Sucks it's only been a little over a month.
I purchased the laptop from Newegg.com since it was the cheapest I could find. They only do a 30-day refund/replacement unless you paid for extra insurance (which I never do since usually I can figure out most simple laptop issues).
I usually just turn off this laptop as it's not my main one, but one I'm going to lend to my brother. And one day the keyboard was working fine and then the next day I turned it on I had issues. Worked fine for the few weeks leading up to it. I've updated windows a few times, but none of the updates were keyboard related and factory restoring didn't work so I'm at a loss.

Keyboard shortcuts no longer work iOS 8.3. Triple tap Home button on Bluetooth keyboard no longer works either. Help!

Since updating my iPad Third Generation ("New iPad") to iOS 8.3, Keyboard Shortcuts no longer work. Also on my Logitech EasySwitch Bluetooth Keyboard, triple tapping the home button on it no longer works to trigger Accessibility, even though that is still set up for triple tap in Settings and continues to work on the iPad itself. How can I get these functions back? Wah!

Trackpad no longer works on MacBook Pro after update to OS 10.72.2

I just did a software update to OS 10.7.2 and upon restart my trackpad no longer works. The button does but not the pad. Any thoughts? I have never had a problem with it. There is no battery issue. No buckling or swelling. It worked, then I updated it to 10.72, restarted, and now it doesn't.
I have a MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB SDRAM.
Thank God I have an external mouse. HELP!

Keyboard & trackpad doesn't work

hi, i've a problem with my ibook g4, keyboard & trackpad doesn't work. please help me.

Hi onetechs,
You need to give more information on the problem. Did they suddenly stop working or was it gradual? Does the computer still boot up? Was there physical trauma (eg. drop/spill/etc.)? How old is the computer?

Keyboard, IR, Trackpad no longer work after 2.1 upgrade

Installed the BootCamp 2.1 upgrade and after the reboot, the keyboard, trackpad and IR receiver no longer work.
Windows recognizes the hardware (Found New Hardware) but during driver install, the dialog box pops up to say that Windows couldn't install the driver (Fatal error during installation).

I also just made the mistake of installing 2.1 and am having the same problems. The built-in keyboard and trackpad don't work, and my external keyboard doesn't work either. An external mouse works, but that's all.
***? Is it possible to downgrade to an earlier version?

Keyboard & Trackpad don't work

The keyboard and trackpad do not work on my 13" Macbook. I've attached a usb keyboard and mouse to get functionality. So far I've repaired permissions, reset pram and smc all with no effect on the keyboard and trackpad. Any ideas?

Your absolutely correct! I took it to the apple store today and they fixed it in less than 5 hours. Thankfully, I still have a year left on applecare - it would have cost $186

Keyboard shortcuts no longer work after upgrade to ios 6

After upgrading to iOS 6, the keyboard shortcuts on my iPhone 4S no longer work. Not only that I can't change them either. If I add or delete a shortcut, it simply goes back to the way it was when I exit the settings and go back in. My iPad 2 doesn't have this problem, only my iPhone 4S.
I tried restarting as well as doing a reset (hold home and power button).
Any idea how to fix this?

If you want to go through all the steps I took:
1. Restart
2. Soft reset (hold home and power until Apple logo appears)
3. Reset keyboard dictionary
4. Reset all settings
5. Clear autofill
Only after the last step did things start working. Prior to that I couldn't make any changes I made to the keyboard shortcuts stick, though every now and then changes would take. Sometimes trying to delete a shortcut would crash the settings app. In all cases the shortcuts didn't work.

Some Keyboard Shortcuts No Longer Working in Apps

Recently, two specific keyboard shortcuts have stopped working within all my apps:
command-1
command-2
For example, in Final Draft they are supposed to switch formatting to become scene headings and action lines, respectively. All the other command shortcuts still work. In Word, I have command-1 through command-6 commands set to change text colors. Command-1 and command-2 no longer work but the rest stil function properly.
All of my shortcuts worked perfectly for well over a year. Anyone know why two of them might have stopped all of a sudden?
Thanks in advance,

Here's the second way:
While logged into the newly created admin account, backup the bad account's folder, delete the bad account, selecting the save data option (which is stored in /Users/Deleted Users/ as a disk image), recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. If the problem's solved, open the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one that don't exist in it. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving conflicts or identifying corrupt plist files is a laborious process. Good luck.

KeyBoard is no longer working on my HP Elitebook 8460P

My keyboard no longer works on my 8460p. I'm able to use a usb keyboard and the onscreen keyboard but the onboard keyboard no longer works. My HP motherboard died about two weeks after I got it and HP had it for a month and I just got it back. It would not power up and now it powers up but now the keyboard does not work. I really do not want to send it back in, I want to see if I can fix it myself before sending it back in. I'm wondering if maybe they did not connect something back or something came aloose during shipping. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Hi Corey21,

Basic Panel Keyboard Shortcut No Longer Works

For some reason when I try to use the keyboard shortcut (command 1) to return to the basic panel it no longer works. Any ideas?

Is there a keyboard shortcut in your operating system for Cmd-1? This would most likely override the Lightroom keyboard shortcut.
Also, you can try deleting your preference file: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroom-41.html

Keyboard shortcuts no longer work in CS4 and Leopard

Got a new Mac Pro so the OS is Leopard, I had F-keys assigned to open menus etc., and they are no longer working, e.g., I had F 10 assigned to Image Size, now it turns the mute on and off.
How do I get it back to the previous behavior?
TIA,
Geoff

No doubt it's the new aluminum keyboard (which I love), that's tripping you up. There are a couple of ways to address it.
Go into the Keyboard preferences and place a check for the
i Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys
(i.e., the "old way")
You can then assign different keys for system level control in Keyboard shortcuts tab.
Alternatively, you can leave it unchecked - in PS, press and hold the
b fn
key (next to the home key), before using your standard F key shortcuts. The fn key is basically a temporary "toggle" to switch the focus between system and application. So, pressing fn before hitting F10 will not mute the system sound, but carry out whatever PS shortcut you have assigned.

Are the songs that you are trying to play grayed out in your playlists?
I had this problem after upgrading to iOS 5, and I found that deleting all the songs from my device and re-syncing them fixed the problem.
To do this:
1. Attach your iOS device (either using the cable or to the same wi-fi network if using iTunes Wi-Fi Sync).
2. Open iTunes, and click on your iOS device.
3. Click on the Music tab.
4. Uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox at the top.
5. When asked, click "Don't Sync Music".
6. Sync the iOS device. Your songs will be removed from the device.
7. Check the "Sync Music" checkbox at the top once again.
8. Sync the iOS device again, and your songs will be re-added.
I don't know why the upgrade made some songs unreadable, but the resync fixed the problem for me (I had to do this for each of my iOS devices after upgrading them all to iOS 5). Fortunately, I only had 1,000 songs, so the resync didn't take forever.
Hope this helps!

IOS6 keyboard shortcuts no longer work

I've tried everything I can think of... power cycle, restart, re-sync. anyone else having this issue???

Has anyone tryed the emoji un/reinstall? I'm fine with the documents being off in icloud......for now. I hope this helps someone.

Problems with Mountain Lion – Dock has gone and also clicking trackpad no longer works.

Hi,
I’m not sure how best to explain the problem I am having but here goes anyway…I have a Macbook pro (mid 2009 model) and recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Everything seemed to be working ok and I was enjoying trying to work out all the new features. However yesterday when I switched the Macbook on, once it had started some strange things were happening. Firstly my dock at the bottom had disappeared. Normally this is at the bottom of the screen however this no longer the case. I used the keyboard shortcut to show the dock however when I do this, the dock appears but none of the icons increase in size when I hover over them (as used to happen).
The other thing that is happening is that I cannot click on anything to open or select an option. For example, I can’t click on anything on the dock (when I can get the dock to show) to open an application, I cannot select from drop down lists etc (ie select file then software updates). Even when I switch off my Macbook I can only hit return for the shutdown mode, and cannot select one of the other options, for example restart. I tried to re-install Mountain Lion by holding down command and R (I think - I read this on another forum and followed the instructions) however when the Macbook restarted and the various options came up, one of which is to re-install the software, I couldn’t select anything to do this due to this track pad problem I have explained (probably badly!) above.
I should point out that everything was fine for a few days after upgrading to Mountain Lion and then the above problems started.
Can anyone help? I’m pretty stressed with the whole thing as I can’t use my Macbook now and am worried it’s permanently broken!!
Or am I better just taking it along to the genius bar at my local Apple store?
Thanks in advance.

Not the same symptoms, but I noticed that after a few days of running great, odd things started happening on my iMac. The first thing was that when I would boot the Mac up for the first time in the morning, it would boot into single user mode. I have the Apple Bluetooth keyboard, so I know there's no way keys are being held down.
The other symptom was that Microsoft Outlook 2011 would hang on launch. It would get stuck on the "Setting Up Identities..." phase. Rebuilding the Outlook database would help until the next time I shut the iMac down.
Also a couple of times it got to the Desktop after a boot, but not everything was working correctly and some startup items didn't load.
The iMac also kept booting into single user mode on the first boot.
I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, and I thought that fixed both problems, until the next morning. Now I just don't shut the Mac down. I can close Outlook, and it launches in a couple of seconds.
So it would appear that something is becoming corrupt when OS X is shut down. If I don't shut it down, it's fine.

Save for the web keyboard command no longer works

I have Photoshop CC on Mac OS 10.9.2.
For some reason I can't figure out, Shift-Option-Command-S no longer opens "save for the web" dialog. It does nothing at all.
I can open the dialog from the menu itself, no problem; it's just the shortcut that has failed.
The shortcut is still visible in the menu as the appropriate command, but it does not work.
Any thoughts?

I've found that once you start using custom shortcuts it can get you into trouble with some of the standard shortcuts. My experience was using the Arrange Documents shortcuts from the Michael Ninness Power Shortcuts workshop, which overwrote Free Transform step & repeat. Even though I had my custom shortcuts saved in my dual monitor workspace, it was overwriting the Essentuals workspace.
If I reset Preferences I'd be OK again, but as soon as I switched to my dual monitor workspace, it would overwrite Essentuals again. The fix was to reset Preferences again, and save a new version of Essentuals I called 'Essentuals 2' with keyboard shortcuts and menus checked. That lets me use the dual monitor workspace for the most part, and switch to the Essentuals 2 workspace if I need to use FT Step & Repeat.
