HT1492 my wireless keyboard will not recognise Q-O and Z-M

Hi my Wireless Keyboard does not recognise half the keys. I have gone through all the troubleshooting  basics but nothing has changed.
It is the top row of letter Q-O (but P works) and the botton row Z-M.  any ideas?(I am using a wired keyboard right now!)
Thanks

...I'm an idiot. My power supply wasn't connected properly. (the light was green, not red to indicate charging)
Once I fixed that, everything is working properly.

  • Had an update error now itunes will not recognise my phone and it is frozen

    I tried to update my iphone 3g tonight and it encountered an error. Now itunes will not recognise the phone and it is frozen on a screen telling me to connect it to itunes. I have turned it on and off and it remains stuck. I have restarted my computer and itunes and no change.

    Hey- just went through something similar - and I'm sorry I don't have the perfect answer... bc mine did what you are saying except my itunes did recognize that "an iphone" was connected and so it suggested that I do a recovery-mode restore on it and then I did a back up restore via itunes to get my most recent back up transferred to my iphone, and then it finally listed my phone as "xxx's iphone" in itunes.... here's the link I used: http://www.copytrans.net/blog/how-to-restore-iphone-after-updating-to-ios-7/  and I also used: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    I think what you are saying is that itunes doesn't even recognize that your iphone is plugged in - so you can't start the recovery process?  I DO know that in the hours of me muddling through the internet - googling this issue - that I did see other posts of those who plugged into itunes, and it didn't recognize their iphone, but they DID have suggestions on how to deal with the problem... while I don't have "the" solution, I wanted you to know I did see an answer out there - just skimmed past it as I was searching for mine... sorry I don't remember good luck!

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard will not become discoverable--solution

    I use an Apple Wireless Keyboard and mouse with my MBP. Today when I arrived at work and set up everything, the laptop would not recognize the keyboard. I went through some troubleshooting steps as recommended by Apple, but to no avail. So I figured I would remove the keyboard from my bluetooth devices and go through the setup process again.
    Not so good, because I soon realized that the keyboard wouldn't go into discoverable mode. Pressing the power button caused the light to glow for a few seconds--indicating the batteries were still charged--but it wouldn't blink. I tried removing the batteries, inserting new ones, all to no avail. Just kept pressing the button, getting the glow without blinks, and the keyboard wouldn't show up in the bluetooth setup list.
    So I guessed that the keyboard still thought it was paired with the computer, even though the computer knew it wasn't. And then I read somewhere that the range for the keyboard was around 30 feet or so. So I walked out of our cubicle area and into a stairwell 50 feet away. Sure enough, after the initial glow, the light blinked! It was discoverable.
    I ran back to my desk, hit "continue" in the bluetooth setup panel, and paired the keyboard again.
    So, if your keyboard isn't paired with your computer, but still won't go into discoverable mode, maybe this trick will work for you.

    Thanks Rob, and all of you! I tried all the steps above and almost gave up reading. Then I saw your note about the iPad! Duh (to myself not you!!!). My iPad is right nearby paired to this keyboard. I had totally forgotten about that! All I had to do was tell my iPad to forget it, then those lovely blinking lights. and now a new marriage is made (keyboard to laptop).
    My gratitude to all of you who take the time to help each other and report results. YAY!!!

  • Wireless Keyboard Will Not Pair With iMac

    After installing Security Update 2007-007 and Pro Applicatiion Support 4.0.1 my wireless keyboard stopped being recognized by my computer. When I run my Bluetooth Setup Assistant it sees my keyboard but I can not pair it. I even installed new battteries in it thinking that was the problem. I had a brand new never used wireless keyboard in the closet which i got out and installed batteries in it and it will also not pair with my iMac. Any sugggestions will be greatly appreciated since I am stumped! Oh, my wireless mouse is working fine.

    The model number is M9270LL/A (its the one that comes with the iMac). When the screen comes up and asks for you to enter a set of numbers to pair with the computer and I type the nembers on the keyboard I then receive an message that an error has occured. I try and try again to pair the keyboard to the computer with the same results. Thanks.

  • Wireless keyboard is not recognised on startup even though batteries are not flat?

    I have two imacs and yesterday one of the keyboards would not connect to the imac when it started in the morning so I assumed it was the batteries and changed them but the same thing happened to my other imac this morning and so I used an old wired keyboard to log in and then the wireless keyboard started to work and told me it 100% battery.
    Does anyone have an idea why this is happening and what I can do to stop it?
    Cheers

  • Help!  Wireless Keyboard will not type!

    Hi to all!
    Long time existing problem. My wireless keyboard from time to time unresponsive. I cannot type anymore (Right now I type with the keyboard viewer). Reported to Apple before and got new keyboard but problem still existing. Very frustrating. I'm living on an island and it would be a huge effort to carry the unit back to the dealer.
    I cannot type, caps lock and space bar not working. Other keys like delete, command, shift and upper line are working.
    I repaired permission, restart and shut down several times already, but it won't work. Earlier times it was working after a restart but not now. It is indicated that keyboard and mouse is paired and on.
    I have a mid 2009 Mac Pro model. I'm running on Snow Leopard with latest updates.
    Now also my pointer didn't respond anymore and had to shut down by pressing the power button.
    Finally now after starting again everything is back to normal.
    Has anybody similar problems? What can I do? If cannot do my editing work, my computer is worthless for me. I had times i was even unable to save all my work because of that.
    I hope some insider can help me, please.
    Michael

    hi again, i just found a solution to my problem so i hope it helps you.
    i opened >system preferences>universal access>mouse & trackpad, from there i discovered that mouse keys was turned on( probably by my 4 year old son). i switched these off and keyboard works fine again.
    i hope this helps you if you are still having difficulties.

  • After installing Lion my keyboard will not work at all and it will not recognize my wi-fi connection at times. Any ideas for a solution to this problem?

    It will not let me type anything now and the wi-fi connection is not recognized at times! Please help!! This only happened after I downloaded Lion.

    Now that you have restored it to Apple software, we can help - no kidding.
    If WiFi is grayed out (tap Settings first) then you will not be able to select WiFi. See this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
    If you can select WiFi, your touch will then detect WiFi networks that are within range. Networks that are protected by encryption will display with a closed lock. Open networks will have an open lock. Networks are displayed by strongest signal to weakest signal.
    Closed/locked networks require a password or WEP key to join. Open networks often require that you agree to terms and conditions for that network. This usually occurs with a Safari-like screen that appears 15-30 seconds after you tap on the network. Until you go through that screen, it might look like you are connected but you are not.
    Spend some time going through the basic WiFi troubleshooting guide: httpL//support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

  • Trying to activate my 3GS and the phone will not recognise the sim and will not activate

    Help Please
    I have changed my call plan with my service provider from contract to PAYG and have just tried to upgrade my 3Gs to IOS 5.0.1. I have purchase a iPhone 4 and was using the 3Gs as  back up.
    I set the phone to factory restore as it was being sluggish and I felt a restore would be the best option. The restore went ahead but the phone will not accept that I have a valid sim in the phone and will not activate stating that the servers cannot activate the phone. 
    The sim is the new PAYG sim given to me by O2 and I had even arranged for the number to be transferred to the PAYG sim. I am at  a loss to understand what has happened as the sim will work fine in an old 8gb Iphone 2g and other mobiles. I have not kept the old contract sim so I am unable to insert that to see if that was the problem.
    How can I get my 3Gs acitated and working? Do I need to contact O2 or take the phone to an Apple store. Any advice would be appreciated.

    You need a valid micro-sim. to acivate.

  • Wireless keyboard will not enter discoverable mode

    Hi, Changed the batteries on my bluetooth apple keyboard and now the keyboard won't pair with the iMac; nor will it enter "discoverable" mode (when I press the keyboard power button the keyboard light illuminates green for about a second and then goes dim.)

    Anyone come up with a solution? I looked at the other closely related issues where the green light wouldn't come up and they suggested using aluminum foil.  I tried that and it didn'tdo the trick.
    I'd hate to have to buy a new keyboard, even though this one is a few years old, it worked great until now.

  • Wireless key will not work

    I just moved my mac mini to my new apartment and my wireless keyboard will not work. My man mini model is A1103. The problem is that I need to type in a password to get on my mac to get to the bluetooth config screen. So I'm stuck at the login screen with a keyboard that just blinks. Its also my TV so im goin nuts. PLZ help.

    If you know someone with an USB keyboard, borrow it and use it to input the password. It doesn't need to have been made by Apple or designed to be used with a Mac.

  • Keyboard will not repeat

    hi...since i upgraded from snow leopard to mountain lion...my wireless keyboard will not repeat keys
          and yes i have tried adjusting it in prefs...also i am limited in my knowledge of puters..

    Key repeat was semi-eliminated in 10.7. Characters that have accents (vowels, n) now show options for accents when they're held down in Apple's applications. Consonants, for the most part will repeat.
    To re-enable key repeat, copy and paste this into Terminal and restart:
    defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false
    (This may not work with some custom keyboard layouts or in all applications.) To go back to the default setting, enter the same command into Terminal, substituting 'true' for 'false'.

  • Bridge and Photoshop CS4 will not recognise the images shot in NEF file

    Shot in Nikon D810 with NEF file but the images will not recognise with Bridge and Photo

    That camera was recently supported for the first time by ACR 8.6, which needs at least CS6 to run.  You will never be able to open those raw NEF files in CS4, as there will never be an update for CS4.
    Your choices are to upgrade, or to use the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 on each and every batch of raw NEF files in order to convert them to raw DNGs that you can open in CS4.
