HP 8650w Touchpad light doesn't work.

The light in the upper left hand corner of my touchpad of my new HP Elitebook 8560w doesn't seem to work and considering how large the touchpad is i would really like to turn it off when I'm typing. Is there a specific driver I should or need to  (re)install to get this function to work?
Many thanks,
Jamesn6

  • The touchpad scroll doesn't work in visual studio?

    Hello,
    As I mentioned in the title, the touchpad scroll doesn't work or affect visual studio community. The scrolling works very well with other software but it doesn't with visual studio community. This same button worked with VS 2010, VS 2012 (It stopped sometimes
    but still functioning correctly most of the time), and stopped with 2013 versions. Why? 
    Take a look at the video to see the problem in action: http://youtu.be/Qt20pM6ZQAo
    Thank you for your comments!

    Scroll button on what? Are you using a mouse with a scroll wheel, or is this a laptop touch pad?
    If the latter, please read here:

  • The indicator light doesn't work anymore

    I have a older Apple TV and the indicator light doesn't work anymore. It flashes yellow when it's plugged in then nothing afterwards. It used to be green. It also doesn't want to update from iTunes anymore either

    I get the same thing, but I'm concerned about mine since it doesn't sleep always when the lid is closed. It then starts to get really hot if I have it in my backpack when its closed but not sleeping.
    Does anyone know what could be wrong? I'm new to Apple Laptops.

  • Caps Lock Light Doesn't Work

    Hey There,
    I don't know since when this happens but whenever I login to my Arch box, my caps lock light doesn't work so I can't really know if it's on or not unless I try manually. At first I thought that the light is gone but in Windows it workes without any problems.
    Any thoughts, suggestions ?

    Yeah, it is Xorg 7.3 related, in my investigation I have found that this is a known issue of Xorg 7.3 so upstream is going to give a fix soon, or so I hope.

  • Ink warning lights doesn't work

     Product name: Deskjet 2050 All-in-one J510a
    Copying in black ink does not work, warning lights does not show (and never have done).
    Product name: Deskjet 2050 All-in-one J510a
    Operating system:  Windows 8, 64 bit 
    Copying and printing in black ink does not work.  No warning lights flashing on the printer.
    Via the computer I get ink levels for black (bowtie symbol?) is ok but less than 25%.
    Ink levels for colour cartridge is close to zero, it says.  How ever , when copying, colour works nice
    but printing with black ink  does not work at all.
    I have tried cleaning the inkheads twice.
    Should I replace both cartridges?
    Why doesn't the printer ink level warning lights show?
    Why doesn't the computer warn me about low ink levels?
    This question was solved.

    Hi @malin_t,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! 
    I understand that the ink warning lights don't work and that you cannot print in black with your HP Deskjet 2050, and I am happy to help!
    If you have tried everything in this guide, Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Deskjet 1050, 1050A, 2050, and 2050A All-in-One Printer Ser.... Then I would definitely consider replacing both cartridges.
    Regarding the ink levels, there should be an HP Printer icon on your desktop. Double-click to open it, click on the image of your Ink Levels in the HP Solution Center, then click on the Advance Setiings tab, there you can choose if you want the ink alerts to be shown right away or only when you print.
    Hope this information helps, and have a great day!

  • Why keyboard light doesn't work after HDD replacement?

    Hello,
    I upgradet my MBP with Momentus TX 750 and now my keyboard light doens't work.
    What can I do to fix it?
    Best Regards
    Pawel

    @kiki1871: This would be the last option I would take. I cloned the HDD before replacing it to avoid the whole OSX installation & backup procedure. I wonder if I could download the driver and install it now. Any hint wherefrom I can get it?

  • The light doesn't Work!

    My ipod nano plays music but the light is not working. Anybody can help with this?

    Check your settings first to make sure you have the backlight on.
    Next if it is on, you will need to call Apple. That is a tech support problem.

  • My iPhone 5c rear camera won't work and the led light doesn't work either

    At first just snapchat wouldn't work and then I tried my actual camera and neither camera worked. I turned it off and on again and the front facing camera works but the rear facing one doesn't. Snapchat wont use either one. Then I pulled up my settings bar thingy and the led light button is all greyed out. I rebooted my phone and it did nothing. Im not sure what to do, help please!

    Set it back to factory settings without using any backup data. If the camera does not work after that, you'll have to get the phone serviced.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    iPhone - Contact Support - Apple Support
    If the camera works after that, use the latest backup to restore your data on the phone again. If the problem comes back, your backup contained damaged data, causing this problem and you'll have to start allover again, but without the backup data.

    Ah ha! Thanks, I'll give that a shot when I get back to my office.  Thanks too Andy, if all else fails I may have to go with hal/xorg, but I'm leaving that as a last resort.
    Update: That worked great, thanks again ichbinesderelch!
