G530, Installed Windows 7 and Fn keys no longer can control brightness

Hello, I recently installed windows 7 on my Lenovo G530 and while most of the fn keys still work, the ones controlling the screen brightness do not:

I hope there is some driver update I can do to remedy this. I assume I need to download the appropriate drivers, but can't figure out which ones that would be after trying a few on the "Lenovo G530 (4446)" driver download page.
Thanks

Press Option key on boot and select the OS X partition. If it isn't here, press Command and R keys on boot, open Disk Utility, erase the drive and install Lion or Mountain Lion

How do I install windows and bootcamp on my macbook Air

I and K keys no longer working on Macbook keyboard

The I and K keys no longer work, it seems. I've restarted, attempted to clean out the keyboard, restarted again, etc. No dice. Sometimes when I push I or K I'll get an odd string of characters--'YIOU' or a bunch of symbols--but mostly I just get no response. I wasn't doing anything unusual when this started and I didn't spill anything on it.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I have heard around the message boards about this kind of problem, and no one seems to know what the problem is. Your best bet is to take it into Apple and they can fix it for you. If you are in warranty, they shouldn't charge you, especially since you didn't spill anything into the keyboard (also a common problem). if you are out of warranty, you're looking at around $90 or so (still better than not being able to finish that email or that final report!). i had my keyboard replaced for a different reason, but the receipt said I would have been charged said amount had I not been under warranty.
hope that helps!

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?

Hi, I have macbook Pro, running Leopard OS X. I partitioned my hard drive a while ago to install windows and only allowed myself 10 Gig of data. Anyway, i deleted windows and want another OSX on there instead. How do i make this partition bigger please??

Hi, I have macbook Pro, running Leopard OS X. I partitioned my hard drive a while ago to install windows and only allowed myself 10 Gig of data. I deleted windows after i realised i wasnt enjoying using it at all and wasted my hard drive. I now decided that i want another OSX on there instead yet i have only allowed myself 10 gb on the partition. I have ben thru some programms but am struggling on making this partition bigger.
I only want it at 20gb but cant seem to make the partition bigger, only smaller or split it into further partition.
Is there a way to do this, i have all installation discs from original OSX so think this could help.
Any help please would be fantastic.
Thanks Chris

Hi, dragging the partition will only make smaller, not larger. In disk utility you can only split or make smaller the partitions. Yes i booted from installation disks also but still no help.
And Brody, I am willing to erase the disc completely, infact jus started doing a backup in order to do so but that failed also. And the information you gave on partition a hard drive, Although very simple and i already know how to do this, but it wont let me make the partition bigger, and i dont want to make a new partition, just enlarge the one i already have, which i dont see possible from disk utility.
Getting really frustrated now, even backing up is saying no to me. **** external being a douche.
I dont mind erasing the hard drive but surely this must be doable without deleting the secondary partition back t a single volume, and re partitioning into 2 volumes again.
Thanks again

Firstly, what is the source of the 10.6.4 disc? Is it the original installation disc for your MacBook, or one 'borrowed' from another computer?
It isn't the retail version, because that's 10.6.3.
Assuming it's the correct disc (i.e. the one that shipped with your Mac), you need to boot from it again.
OK the language page.
From the installer screen, ignore the continue button, go to the menu bar and choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
In DU, select your internal drive in the sidebar (the top item with the makers name and serial no.).
Run Repair Disk. If that comes up as disk OK, click the partition tab. Select the partiton from the drop-down above the graphic; 1 partiton is all you need.
Go to the options button and ensure that the partition scheme is GUID and the file system to Mac OS Extended (Journalled). Name the partiton (usually Macintosh HD), click Apply.
When the Macintosh HD volume appears below the drive name, quit DU and see if you can then install.
If the screen after the language screen doesn't show the menu bar, it may be necessary to use another Mac to do the job with the MB in Firewire Target Disc Mode. If it won't boot in TDM, or the MB doesn't have FireWire then it's getting very difficult.

RETURN/ENTER and SHIFT keys no longer work, and my number keys only work as numbers - no longer do they serve as exclamation points or dollar signs etc.

After downloading OS X Yosemite my RETURN/ENTER and SHIFT keys no longer work, and my number keys only work as numbers - no longer do they serve as exclamation points or dollar signs etc. PLEASE HELP

Does this bad behavior persist when logging in as a different user, e.g., Guest? Does it persist when starting up in Safe Mode?

I installed Windows and Mac OS

I installed Windows and Mac OS
have installed on my macbook, windows 7 and Mac OS, but the Mac does not work, I tried to access it several times but nothing happens. I need help. Please.

My first guess is that the Windows was installed over MacOS. Then, you will need to reinstall MacOS using the recovery CDs included in your MacBook purchase.
Second option is that both operating systems are installed correctly, and you need to tell the computer to boot from a specific drive at startup.

Is my iMac now useless as i have installed lion and i am no longer able to run cs2 photoshop and illustrator as this is all i use my mac for they should make this clear before buying it i can't afford the latest version of cs2

is my iMac now useless as i have installed lion and i am no longer able to run cs2 photoshop and illustrator as this is all i use my mac for they should make this clear before buying it i can't afford the latest version of cs2 and cant believe what a waste of money it is.

The newest version of CS2 is CS5. And it was made very clear that these applications would not run in Lion. Not only by Apple, but on all sorts of communities and websites. It has been a long time coming - PowerPC apps were outdated six years ago. Lion does not support Rosetta, and therefore not PPC apps.
you have to options. Go back to Snow Leopard or upgrade your software. (MS Office 2004 and older will not run either).

Apple wired extended keyboard on Vista, windows and alt key

The Windows and Alt key are flipped. How can I get the into a windows layout instead of a mac layout?
I downloaded the MS layout editor but it won't let me edit the alt key.
Pls help,

You can use a program call SharpKeys (http://www.randyrants.com/sharpkeys/) to edit the keys.

Re-installed Windows and iTunes due to system crash, iPhone won't sync now

My system recently crashed. Re-installed Windows and iTunes, all my old documents, songs, movies were all gone. But I now still have movies, songs and pictures that are on my iPhone 3G and would like to transfer them to my newly re-installed system, but iTunes won't allow me to do it. I will have to lose everything currently in my iPhone because I am trying to sync it to which is now recognised as another computer.
Is there any way I can get all my songs, movies, pictures transferred across to my new system?

The sync process for iTunes content is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone, and the same for photos transferred from your computer. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone so even if you are able to transfer the photos from your iPhone back to your computer, the original resolution of the photos will be lost.
iTunes includes an option to transfer content that was purchased or acquired from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for content that was purchased or acquired from the iTunes Store only.
First you need to re-authorized your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes.
With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
After doing this when syncing iTunes content for the first time, your iPhone will likely be erased of all iTunes content first, but after you have transferred the content from your iPhone to your iTunes library, you can reselect it under the Music and Videos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
Apple provides no option to transfer photos from an iPhone that were transferred to the iPhone from a computer. There may be a 3rd party utility that provides for this, but any such utility is not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost.
This is one of the reasons why maintaining a backup of your important data stored on an external drive or some other media is so important, which should include your iTunes library and photos, along with all other data that is important to you. This is important regardless the platform, but even more so with a Windows PC due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.

There are several possibilities.
1. You do not have contiguous free disk space.
2. BCA has failed, or you may have a Fusion drive which is causing problems.
3. You have incorrect permissions on the disk.
4. Can you boot in OS X Safe Mode - OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support?

Reinstall MacFuse with the one from http://www.tuxera.com/mac/macfuse-core-10.5-2.1.9.dmg. If that doesn't work, you can use Paragon NTFS for Mac 9.0 which has been designed to work with Lion.
