Wireless button (f12) not working after windows 8 pro upgrade

Hi: I have seen several posts from forum members with the Broadcom wireless adapters with the same issue as you are having. I don't know if anyone was able to resolve the issue. I had suggested trying the Windows 7 broadcom driver and see if that works. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-107849-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=5255857&sw_lang= If you decide to take this suggestion for action, and the driver doesn't install automatically, try manually installing it by going to the device manager, under network adapters, click on the Broadcom wireless adapter. Click on the driver tab. Click on update driver. Select the Browse my computer for software method and browse to the installation folder that was created when you ran the file. That file is located in C:\SWSetup\sp57965. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and hopefully the driver will install. That is the only idea I can come up with. I am very surprised by this as Broadcom usually has good drivers that work. Paul

I am having the same problem. Bought a dv6-7138us with Windows 7. Upgraded to Windows 8 via promo offer. F12 (Wifi toggle) key worked fine. Then updated new BIOS version "F.13". Now I cannot toggle the F12 key. The Wifi is permanently turned on (which is better than having it stuck in off), but I would like my toggle ability back. Sometimes I go to the coffee shop to type something and I don't want to run down the battery constantly searching for a Wifi signal when I don't need the net. Have you guys found a solution yet? I tried putting the PC to sleep then waking it, but the Wifi key is still stuck in the on position. Thanks.

Wireless OS Update - not working

I've been trying to update my BlackBerry Torch 9800 6.0.0.246 to higher version wirelessly but all it says - “Your BlackBerry is up to date.” The others we're able to update their smartphone but why can't I? I don't want to plug my phone to any computer using the cable connector because I'm afraid it would get virus and be ruined eventually. Please help..

HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Keyboard not working

HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Keyboard not working
My Windows 8 - 64 bit laptop keyboard stopped working. I tried to uninstall and reinstall as explained in the support pages. but doesn't seem to work. Is it dead? what is the solution. Please help
Thank you

Hi,
While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right click the entry 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard' and select Uninstall.
Shutdown the notebook.
Then unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Note: If the keyboard doesn't work when trying to access or navigate the Bios Menu, then this is probably a hardware fault.
Regards,
DP-K

Wireless network adaptor not working

My wireless network stopped working, and the wireless network adaptor is not showing in the device manger. The keyboard indicator indicated wifi disabled (f12). Pushing then button does nothing. It was working fine earlier in the day. The only change made was an adjustment to text size which required a restart to take affect. The wireless adaptor did not work on the restart. Not sure what to try next to get it working again. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks,

With two routers you'd have to put one of them into bridge mode. If the linksys is the second router then change its IP from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.2.1
You'll still have WPA issues with this configuration because the linksys really is not setup to handle bridge mode very well.

Number 4 on my wireless keyboard is not working can someone please help

number 4 on my wireless keyboard is not working can someone please help

You do know with absolute certainty he, that the mic does not work at all? Have you tried recording a video with sound to test to make sure that the microphone isn't working?
if you have tried recording a video with sound and that did not work, have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all? Have you looked to see if there is any debris covering the mic? Or do you have a cover that could be interfering with the microphone?
you can start with a reset of the iPad if you haven't done anything else. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time, for about 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears on the screen. When you see the Apple logo on the screen, you can let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up. Try the microphone after the iPad starts up again.
You could try restoring the iPad to factory settings and see if that recovers the microphone for you.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
It is also possible that you could have a hardware issue which you will not be able to resolve on your own. If you cannot find any other way to get the microphone to work you may end up having to take it to an Apple store and let an Apple genius evaluate the device.

Hi:
This is the only thing that I can think of that will work...see if manually installing the Vista 64 bit driver works on W8.
Run this driver. If it installs automatically, great. If not...
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-65991-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
Go to the device manager and click on the network controller needing drivers.
Click on the driver tab. Click on Update Driver. Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp34931. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.

IF it is a manufacturing defect and you bought the device from Apple or an authorized Apple retailer, then take it into Apple.

TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

- After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod? If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
- If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

I follow your instruction as below:
1) download the sample app vbnet_win_printtoprinter.zip to dev computer and compile it to .NET 2005.
- Run from my dev computer
- Click "Print Report" button
- Error message display - please see below
    The error was due to the default printer name hard coded in the program was not found. I have edited to my printer name and it can be printed out with no error.
2) Use a "saved data" report so that you do not have to worry about database logon.
can't find the "saved data", please elaborate
3) Then copy the exe to the 64 bit box and try to print using this sample app.
-do you mean copy the exe to the 64 bit computer for testing ?

Froze on black screen and power button does not work

my sons ipod touch is stuck on a black screen when plugged into the computer got a spinning wheel and will not connect now spinning wheel will not go away the power button does not work so can not reset it manually
any suggestions would be appreciated

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Neglect the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of thes programs
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
