New Apple Keyboard - Dashboard and Exposé Keys not working

I have the new Apple Keyboard connected to my PowerMac G5 and i have installed the lasted Keyboard Software Update (1.1) from the Apple website. All new function keys are working (the media keys, brightness, etc.) except for the dashboard and exposé keys. I cannot get them to work, not even asign them in the preferences. Anyone else have this problem? Solutions?

I bought the new aluminum keyboard the other day, but didn't notice there was a software update required. Last night a keyboard software package appeared in Software Update, so I downloaded and installed it. Now virtually nothing works in the function keys except brightness and volume. No dashboard where it's supposed to be, no Exposé, and worryingly no F12 Preview In Browser, which I use a lot for Dreamweaver and web design. Dashboard now appears in F13.
I then went and downloaded the 1.1 Update I should have done in the first place, but this has changed nothing. And yes, I think the PowerPC users are being forgotten when this new stuff is made. But...just how many million of us are there?

Before replacing the keyboard do 2-3 SMC resets using the instructions in iMac SMC and PRAM reset

Volume and brightness keys not working with new keyboard on imac

I just purchased a new wired keyboard for imac and brightness and volume control keys not working . i have tried adjusting keyboard settings. I have software version 10.5.8. Do I need to upgrade software. Thank you for any help.

Do you have "Automatically Adjust Brightness" check box ticked in System Preferences > Displays > Display ? If so, you can't manually adjust brightness.

"backspace," "g" and "h" key not working

Hello,
Suddenly the "backspace," "g" and "h" keys stopped working. Due to this issue, I can't log in to use my computer.
Please, help.
I have a Pavilion g7-1260 us Notebook PC, Windows 7.
Please help becasue I can't use my laptop at all.
Thanks,
Carlos-Manuel

Hi Carlos,
Well, to get logged in (assuming your PC is at least booting up to the Windows Logon screen), you can try to use the On-Screen Keyboard, just click on the Ease of Access button (should be on the lower left hand side of the logon screen) and put a check mark in the box next to "Type without the keyboard" and select OK. This should bring up the On-Screen Keyboard and allow you to enter your user name and password. Note that I'm assuming here that you couldn't get logged on because either your user name or password or both uses one of the keys that isn't working.
Alternatively you can also just connect an external USB keyboard, like what you might use with a Desktop PC.
That should at least allow you to use your computer somewhat.
To test your keyboard, reboot the computer and press F2 to access the UEFI diagnostics. You can find the full procudure in this document:
Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7, Vista)
If you don't have the lastest UEFI diagnostics installed on your PC, you can get the download here for your model PC:
HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Support Environment
There is a keyboard test under system tests, it may take a while to get through the test procedure, but it will verify if the keyboard hardware is functional or not.
If the keyboard test all pass, but you still have problems with some keys on the keyboard, check that the keyboard language has not been changed. Go to Start --> Control Panel, choose "Change Keyboards or other input methods", then click the Change Keyboards button. Based on your model, you should have the English (United States) - US option selected. If some other keyboard is selected, that can cause some weirdness with your keyboard.
Good Luck!

Satellite L300 - 'W' and 'F' Keys not working - can't log

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L300.
My 'F' and 'w' keys arent working, and because I have a Built-in HDD user password of which contains those letters, I can not start up my computer.
I had a 'startup' problem a couple of months back, and what I had to do was restore my laptop to a previous date. I did this through Boot management during startup. The only thing is I cant remember how to do it now.
I cant find any restoration disks that may have come with my laptop- so the only way I can do it is through boot management.
So, how do you do a system restore? or is there another way of fixing this problem?.
Please help!! :)

Hello
If W and F key dont work I would recommend replacing the keyboard or use an external one. In my opinion its the best choice because you also need the keys for typing letters or emails
You can get a new keyboard from an authorized service provider in your country.
> I cant find any restoration disks that may have come with my laptop
I think you should read the user manual because you have to create this disk yourself ;)

HP G62-348CA number keys and arrow keys not working

Good day Experts! Can someone help me fix my laptop? I got G62-348CA unit. only number 5 and 6 in my number keys are working and also arrow keys down and right are not functioning. at first it was built with windows 7 home premium 64bit but then i have to reformat my laptop with windows 7 ultimate but i dont have available 64bit so i install 32bit of the OS. before i install the OS, number keys and arrow keys are working fine but after I reformat my laptop with ultimate 32bit, the said keys are not working. please guys help me. im having trouble with my unit and i dont know what to do. its pretty bad i dont have any idea. all the best with you guys and i'm hoping for your fast and kind response. thank you!

Because the operating system does not affect the keyboard in that way . .. If the operating system has issues it would switch keys or assign wrong characters.
I have replaced over 200 keyboards because of such issues

E545 and Function key not working

Any help here is apprecited. My function (Fn) key is refusing to work at all. None of the special features are able to be used. I've checked all my drivers, and followed the instructions in the User Guide, but some of the options described in the guide are even showing on my computer.
I'd love for some help on this issue, as the computer is pretty worthless right now.

Keyboard, touchpad and assist button not working

Hello, I have a touchscreen VAIO laptop on which the keyboard, touchpad and assist button are not working. The touckscreen keyboard works, and if a plug in a bluetooth USB mouse it works too. Te problem as I said before is with the touchpad and physical keyboard, which don't work even in the BIOS inicialization. I tried the assist button but it doesn't work neither. Instead of accessing VAIO Care, it turns the computer on. I also tried to restore the system and update drives, but with no success. The problem started with some bubbles on the screen that freezed the computer. I restarted it and only the keyboard was working (the light under it was on) but the display was off. Then I restarted it again, and again and now only the dispaly is on (I can access Windows 8 via touchscreen), and the rest of it is off (not working, leds off, etc).

Hi Damares,
Thank you for considering Sony Community!
I am sorry to hear your issues but it seems that you are experience a combination of hardware and software issues. First, the Assist button should work when you press it. Try to press Assist button again while the unit is off (just in case you were trying to use it while the unit is off).
Power cycle the unit - Remove the battery and all peripherals -> press and hold the power button for 5 seconds OR, if the battery is not removable, remove all peripherals-> look for a battery off button on the bottom of the laptop -> push the button for 5 seconds.
Test again the unit. If this won't push through then we highly suggest to visit Sony's Authorized Service Center in your area.
For further assistance, we kindly recommend visiting our Sony Global Web site for information on contacting the Sony Support Center in your region at http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/Support/.
Best regards,
Vincent

Dimmer and volume keys not working on keyboard

I went to up my volume from the f5 key on my keyboard and it didn't work. I tried to dim and lighten the screen and that too didn't work. Any suggestions on how to resolve this situation?

Did you check your Keyboard Shortcut settings in Sys. preferences, Keyboard & Mouse perhaps something is off there.

Hi...
Pull the battery now and place the phone in a bag of rice to dry it out...
Here is another link on wet blackberries...
If the phone is already dried out, you can send the phone out and have it repaired at the component level.
There are several services that can do this. One is the bbrepairshop in Houston.

There was an update that addressed that issue in older versions of OS X. However, your profile indicates you are running OS X 10.7.3. Is that correct?

Magic mouse and number keys not working

Last year, Wet Baloney had a problem:
I have a first generation iMac with the wireless keyboard of that vintage and a new Magic Mouse.
All of a sudden the keys on the numeric keypad part of the keyboard do not work. The number
keys at the top do work.
Also (all of a sudden) this computer is not detecting my wireless Magic Mouse. There is no battery
problem. The mouse works fine with my MacBook Pro.
Does anyone have any troubleshooting ideas ??
While this question was not answered, Apple decided to archive it anyway so I'm reposting. I had this problem and my sysadmin wizard figured out what is happening. The solution is to open "System Preferences" --> "Universal Access" and select Mouse. Turn off "Mouse Keys". What I don't know is how that got turned on but it happened when I did a Mac OS update that came out around March 28, 2011. Anyway, that fixed both the mouse and the keypad problems. I'm posting so that someone doing the same search I did can find this answer.

Thank You for this!! I was having problems using my Numeric keypad on a wired keyboard - when I used the number keys, the wireless magic mouse would lock up - the only way out was to Force Close the Application . . . Turning off "Mouse Keys" and hitting Shift > Clear turned everything back to normal.

Windows 7 Brightness and Function key not Working Properly

i have HP 15-af024AU APU Quad Core A8-7410 - (4 GB DDR3,1 TB HDD) Noteboook and it came with windows 8.1 preinstalled than i installed windows 7 ultimate.
i have problem in Display Brightness i am not able to change Brightness by function key or by manually from windows settings.
2. my Function key are not working properly . all key are fliped whiout holding function key it work as function key. 3. bluetooth is not working when i search for new device not able to find any available discouable bluetooth device. 4. wireless button software is not wokring in windows 7 i already updated my bios that available in drivers support and install alll drivers too properly so please give proper drivers for windows 7 for this product that works perfect.

Sorry that driver didn't work. You can try this graphics driver and if that doesn't work, unfortunately, I won't be able to help you with that issue. This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this package includes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver. File name: sp71253.exe As far as the Fn keys being 'flipped,' I have no idea what you mean by that, or what to do about it. Did you install the software that controls the funtion keys? This package contains the HP System Event Utility, which enables special function keys on supported notebook models to be programmed. For example, HP System Event Utility enables users to press the Fn+ESC keys to view system information. This software works with the supported operating systems. File name: sp71156.exe
