HP Pavilion g6-1219sv keyboard problem - kb types numbers and letters concurrently!

Hi. I have a problem with my notebook HP Pavilion g6-1219sv (product: A1Q32EA#B1A).
After of 1,5 year of correct functionality, the keyboard started a strange behavior:
1) When I press a letter button, the keyboard prints a letter + a number. For instance, if I type the letter 'q', then appears in the monitor the string "q3". So, if I want to write "Hello" it will be written as "H3e3l2l2o" in the output.
2) The up-down arrows keys seems like to be stucked (when i press the down arrow key, it's like the up arrow key is stucked somehow and i cant go down).
I thought that maybe there is a problem in Windows (any update, a faulty program, a virus) but the same behavior exists even in the HP Advanced System Diagnostics v3.7.1.0 when I pressing the F2 key at the start of booting (I can't go down to the list to select for example "BIOS Management")...
How can i fix that problem? Where do you think this problem is due?
Thanks

That is the support from Hewlett Packard for its customers?? No one cares?
Terrible support, I am totally dissapointed.
I will NEVER buy any HP device again.

There have been scattered reports of this problem. First try Ralph's solution, as the easiest. Next, try clearing memory by killing processes - double-press HOME, then flick each mini-page up. If it still not fixed Settings/General/Reset - Reset All Settings has been reported to be the solution by several people. Axeman's suggestion is also a good one, but is time consuming if you have a lot of content.

Can't Type Numbers and Letters in a Word Change Order or Dont appear as typed

i am having trouble typing this. if i type a password of all numbers they show as letters on Droid 2 then when I correct them they jump to someplace else in that field. so they are out of order.
also cant paste text in websites like blogger.com. do i need an add on for that? I have one that makes websites think your on a pc not mobile browser but not sure what else I need to stop this because firefox is unusable like that.

Sorry, and thanks for the report. We are working on fixing some bugs in Firefox that affect hardware keyboards on some phones, so hopefully this will be fixed in a future version.

Keyboard problems, not working keys and different connection with letters

PLEASE HELP ME, The background is this: Yesterday I have done for the first time the time machine with my external hardisk, and I try to delete also all remains documents of windows from virtual machine Parallel (I delete it after trial version and I still have windows data in the mac).
(I dont know if is connected to the problem)
After this, this morning the keyboard start to work bad, some keys don't work, like ENTER or P or Volume Buttons, but the strange thing is that some other work differently, like pushing the left arrow it type "à".
I try to change Mac, in order to understand if is a software problem, but nothing, it didnt work also on different computer.
It's not a keyboard lenguage problem as you can think, I changed, lenguage, and nothing, in fact this does not explain why some keys dont work,
In the keyboard visor, I can see which key works and which not, and some like, down arrow, is perennially insert, and furthermore, up volume work as backspace.
So, a series of strange problems.
-keys that dont work
-wrong connection (key-letters)
-and keys always "ON"
I'm sure that no liquid went on the keyboard, and the keyboard is new, (less than 6 month, bought at Apple store)

Ok, I try again, and I followed perfectly the process, the "UTILITY DISC PAGE" was due to the fact that the "P" button doesnt work, therefore, it get just option+cmd+R
Oh, really this is very strange. I try this keyboard on an other mac and it didnt work (it fail the configuration process because the "ENTER KEY" doesnt work)
I try also a USB keyboard on my mac and it was all OK.
So, it seems to be a software problem of my bt keyboard, there isnt a way to reset? I'm worry about match again the bt because it will ask me to type numbers and then ENTER and if the keyboard will not be fixed, Im without keyboard... now I can use it and when I need some key that dont work, I use the virtual keyboard.
Guys, what do you suggest to do? The keyboard is in warranty but the bill is in Italy, now I'm in UK, the apple store could replace it without the bill?

New user. cannot input start up code because keyboard will only let me use numbers only. Since the code requires both numbers and letters, I'm not able to complete the code and install the program

I need to do the finial step to activate elements 12. For some reason my keyboard will not allow me to print letters, only numbers. Since the code that is required for the final step requires both numbers and letters I'm not able to complete .

If the code has letters it's not a serial number, but a redemption code that you use to get a serial number:

HP Pavilion dv6-2114sa keyboard problems

The keyboard for my laptop has been acting very wierdly. Most of the keys work fine but some ofthem do not bring up what they're supposed to.
For example, when I press the 'b' key, it brings up 'bgtv' and when I press the 'y' key, it brings up 'nhy'
I am falling behind with my university work because it takes me far too long to write with the on-screen keyboard so please help

99% of the time keyboard problems are caused by a worn and/or dirty keyboard.
The only solution is to replace the keyboard.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313&_nkw=Pavilion+dv6-2114sa++keyboard&_sacat...
Above are just some examples, HP made silver, black, copper etc colours.
Consider a wireless or wired USB keyboard if you're not inclined to replace your own. Usually it's cheaper to by an external one then it is to pay a shop to do it.
If you want I can help you to track down the correct one and install it.

HP Pavilion 15 notebook : keyboard problem

hi,
Product Name:HP Pavilion 15 notebook
Operating system: windows 8
I am having trouble with my laptop's keyboard. It started as a problem with both the Shift keys i.e. whenever I clicked on it , the keyboard typed either 'z' or 'q' or 'zx' or 'qw'. Then after doing some surfing on the net , I tried some solutions but it resulted in the disabling of keys '1', 'w', 's' and 'x' instead of Shift keys. Shift keys are working perfectly now.I also tried uninstalling the drive but when I restart, the drive automatically comes back along with the problem. Its just been seven months since i bought the laptop, its still under Warranty but it would be helpful if an easier solution came along the way.

Hi,
First do a Hard Reset and check..it has fixed similar issue many times..

Hp pavilion dv7-4273us keyboard problem

On my HP Pavilion DV7-4273us and has Win7 Home Pre, my keyboard has turned into one big shortcut board. While typing if I press "E" My Computer pops up, Space bar all windows close as if in peek mode, "L" locks the computer, ect... I have used Windows Update to see if the driver was out of date, Device Manager and uninstaled it and reinstalled it, looked through the Ease of Access but nothing seems to be working. If I restart it might work fine for 2 minutes or so. What can I do?

Went to another computer and opened Ease of Access Center and looked at every check box and did the same and worked for a little bit than back to where it was. I think I have narrowed it down to the windows key.

Pavilion dv7 (new) Keyboard Problems

3/15/11 I have a brand new dv7-4287, purchased thru Sam's Club. It is less than ten days old, and am having ALL of the same problems many others have described: spacebar is the WORST, but shift keys and other keys do it sporadically, too. Spent 1hr with a very helpful Tech Support guy last night, uninstalling BIOS and Touchpad drivers, then dowloading and reinstalling new drivers for both. T.S. guy was awesome, not his fault, but the reinstalls did NOT solve my problems at all. Spacebar seems to have big "dead" areas where no matter how many times I strike it, it won't advance the cursor. Other areas it works pretty well. My right shift key only works if I am very careful to hold it down for a second before typing the letter that I want in Caps. The left shift key works, then doesn't work, then works..... on and off. Some other keys work with very little stroke pressure, and some need to be hit hard. What is annoying is that in this $1,1000 computer there is NO consistency to the keyboard and touchpad problems. The store demo seemed to work fine, but maybe I didn't really give it a thorough test and would have noticed if I had typed more and cruised around Win7 less. This is definitely a mechanical issue, not a software driver issue. What are my options, other than to return it for another one or a refund? Also am wondering how long it will be before my keys start to wear and become unreadable as others have mentioned, or just fall off altogether. REALLY disappointed in HP quality out of the box.

Hi,
You may return it to the shop and ask for a refund.

Problem with type conversion and primary key during row fetch

[Note, this error occurs in Oracle XE, APEX 2.1.0.00.39]
I have been having a problem with Automatic Row Fetch:
ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested
So in an effort to resolve this, I created a PL/SQL process with the query below and was able to isolate the same error. The problem seems to come from one of the primary keys being a "number" type (APP_ID). The error occurs on the line:
where u.app_id=:P5_APP_ID
I have tried the following variations on this line in an effort to resolve this, but all generate the same error:
1) where to_char(u.app_id) = :P5_APP_ID
2) where u.app_id = to_number(:P5_APP_ID)
3) where to_char(u.app_id) = to_char(:P5_APP_ID)
I've also tried the laternate syntax "&__." and "#__#", but these don't function in the Source field and show up as syntax errors.
Any suggestions are welcome.
begin
for r in (
select app_name, apptype, appcreator, appurl
from application_users u, application_info i
where u.app_id=:P5_APP_ID
and i.app_id=u.app_id
and u.username=:P5_USERNAME)
loop
begin
:P5_APP_NAME := r.app_name;
:P5_APPURL := r.appurl;
exception
when others then
raise_application_error(-20000,'In Loop Failure',true);
end;
end loop;
exception
when others then
raise_application_error(-20000,'Out of Loop Failure',true);
end;
Thanks in advance,
Barney

I found a prior post referencing a similar issue and it was solved by using the "v(__)" syntax. This did resolve my issue, however, I have a quick follow-on which I'm hoping someone can answer quickly...
Since the "v(__)" syntax won't work for the Automatic Row Fetch (at least to the best of my knowledge), I have to do a manual process. However, the manual query as shown above doesn't actually populate any of the form values through the bind variables. They all remain at their cached values from prior data entry on the form.
Is using the bind variables for assignment incorrect, or is there something that must be done to get the updates to show up in the form (ordering of processes, etc.).
My manual process is running in the Load: Before Header state so I would have expected it to update all of the fields.
Thanks in advance,
Barney

Keyboard problem with wmode transparent and firefox

Hello,
I came accross a very nasty bug in this configuration:
FireFox+Windows+[Flex area using the wmode=transparent]
If the flex area has a text input, then the keyboard mapping
is stuck with a wrong keyboard mapping and some characters can
simply not be entered. For instance, on a French keyboard, it is
not possible to enter a @ character.
This bug seems very old, here is a reduced situation dated
from 2005 (!):
<
http://www.5etdemi.com/blog/archives/2005/06/firefox-wmodetransparent-is-completely-screwy -and-breaks-textfields/>
Many other people talked about the problem since, for
instance here:
<
http://blog.headlondon.com/archives/no-wmode-please-were-british/>
My questions are:
* does anyone know of a work-around for this (and yes we _do_
need the transparent feature :-)
* why has this nasty bug not being fixed since 2005 ? I
posted a bug report today but it must have been done before.
I do not know if this is a bug with Firefox or the Flash
player but in all cases many Flex apps can be affected by this bug
if they use the transparent feature.
thanks in advance for the feedback,
Matthieu.

HT3226 keyboard problems: space bar/ forward and backward keys non functioning

I have a iMac and bluetooth keyboard purchased last year.
Yesterday my keyboard demonstrated the above problems.
All other keys work perfectly.
I have checked that my keyboard has been paired with iMac and is connected. Battery condition good.
Can any in the Apple Support Communities help me please?

If you have access to a USB keyboard to test that the system is responding properly and it does, then your keyboard broke.
