I accidently turn of my keyboard

Hello!
I have a problem that seems so small but it´s really big for someone who is new to Mac.
Somehow, i accidently turn off my keyboard or atleast the letters and i don´t remeber which button i press on...
I need help with how to turn on my keys again. any suggestion please?

Hold the power button down until it shuts off.  Restart it.  If it has not come back to life, Apple store genius bar appointment will be needed.
Ciao.

    Hi, Jennifer.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that VoiceOver has been activated and you are unable to access your device.  I have done this myself and here are the steps to disable this feature.  
    VoiceOver
    Press the home button three times quickly (formerly "Triple-click home").
    Accessibility Shortcut
    Managing Accessibility features using iTunes
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to any computer with iTunes installed.
    In iTunes, select your device.
    From the Summary pane, click > Configure Universal Access in the Options section at the bottom.
    Select the feature you would like to use and click OK.

  • Turning Wireless apple keyboard off.

    This might be a very simple thing to achieve, turning the wireless keyboard off, but I don't seem to find information on how to do it. I have looked on instructions book, which recommends to turn it off when not using it and in old post with no success in finding an answer.
    Please could someone help me? the keyboard seem to be chewing the batteries very quickly.
    Cheers.

    Hello g:
    Note in that article that the KB (and mouse) go into a very low power mode when not in use. I never turn mine off unless I am going to be away for a few days. Battery life is essentially a function of use, not turning a device off and on.
    Let me suggest that you consider using rechargeable batteries. I use 2650 mAh Duracells and a 15 minute charger (available from both Energizer and Duracell). In that way, I am never without batteries and I do not throw batteries into landfills.

  • Why can't I scroll down after accidently turning on voiceover?

    After I had Voiceover on my triple-home click selection choices, I accidently turned it on. Now I can't scroll down to accesibility to turn it off, and I was stupid enough to take it off the triple-home click. Can anybody help short of reseting it?

    That's not working.

  • Turning on Full Keyboard Access for PB G4

    I'm a new Mac user with a PB G4 15". I've searched the forums for an answer to this to no avail.
    In The Tao of Mac (http://the.taoofmac.com) the author says: "If you're keyboard-oriented, go into System Preferences | Keyboard and Mouse | Keyboard Preferences and Turn on full keyboard access. Now you can deal with dialog boxes the way you're used to, as well as accessing menus and toolbars with the keyboard."
    When I try this on my PB, there is no "Turn on full keyboard access" button - although the Keyboard Shortcuts tab does have a checkbox for "Turn full keyboard access on or off" with a shortcut of ^F1 (which doesn't seem to do anything).
    I'm very keyboard literate and would like to access menus in the same manner as i can with Windoze - i.e. Alt-underlined letter in menu, e.g. Alt-f brings up file menu.
    Any help most appreciated.

    Powerbook G4 15-inch   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    This may make-or-break my resolve to switch to Mac.
    While I adore the interface, the graphics power, the
    art/design tools and sensibility of the Mac, it
    really is like "typing with boxing gloves on" as
    someone warned. Makes sense for an OS that
    introduced the GUI and the mouse, I'm still finding
    it difficult to adapt to that style of work. For
    me, taking my hands off the keyboard to use the
    mouse is anathema.
    You have nearly as much keyboard control as on Windows, it's just different. And in some cases, better. For instance, when two menu commands start wit the same letter, the alt key can't be the same for both commands, so Windows assigns a different letter to one of them so you have to learn it. The Mac way can be faster because you don't have to learn the alt key; instead, you just start typing the command name and it's selected as soon as a match is made. For example, if I have two commands, "Slide Show Options" and "Save Slide Show as Movie," I know that there are no alt keys to memorize, as soon as I drop that menu with the keyboard, typing "sl" will select "Slide Show Options" and typing "sa" will select "Save Slide Show as Movie."
    In dialog boxes, be aware that many Mac developers have implemented single-key shortcuts for buttons, which do not require full keyboard access to be turned on. For example, if a "Save changes before closing?" dialog box comes up with "Save and Close," "Don't Save," and "Cancel" buttons, and "Save and Close" is the default, the Enter key will hit the default key, the Esc key will hit the Cancel button, and the D key will hit the Don't Save button. It is also possible, depending on the app, that the S key will hit Save and Close and the C key will hit Cancel.

  • How to turn on usernoted in mountain lion after i accidently turned it off?

    how to turn on usernoted in mountain lion after i accidently turned it off?

    Usernoted was continually crashing and eating up memory. I clicked on it in the activity monitor and it took me to a place where I could turn it off. Without thinking I did so. I think I turned it off in the console or the terminal. I don't remember exactly what was written. I just clicked  to allow it to be turned off. Since then I cannot upload anything to facebook directly from my imac or from safari when I use share. But iI still get facebook notifications in the notification center. I have restarted and even shut down and then restarted and also logged out and in and I still can't share.

    The ThinkLight toggles on/of with keypress of Fn+PgUp - the one with a light bulb symbol on it at the top right hand corner of the keyboard.

  • Accidently turned off mac during install now it won't reinstall

    As stated above I accidently turned off my mac during an install of lion. Before installing lion i used disk utillity to delete the Hdd and now it wont resume the instalation. It´s booting with the lion disk and enters the instalation, but comes up with a fail message saying that lion connot be installed. I have tried to redelete my Hdd using diskutility but it still wont work. cannot seen to get anywhere from here.
    what to do...?

    I had a similar problem.  See this problem / answer for a solution:

    which I found at:
        https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3207417
    Resetting the PRAM by pressing Command-Option-P-R during the boot was all I had to do.  It automatically did a restart and I pressed Option to get prompted for the boot drive (don't know if I had to do that last part).

  • TS3899 I accidently turned ON contacts when I was turning ON my yahoo email account in settings and now all the emails from contacts have been merged to create SEPARATE contact right under the original contact name. Now I have double contacts for everyone

    I accidently turned ON contacts when I was turning ON my yahoo email account in Settings and now all the emails from contacts have been merged to create SEPARATE contact right under the original contact name. Now I have double contacts for everyone with an email address!!! how do I UNDO? it says all CONTACTS WILL BE DELETED...when I go to turn CONTACTS to OFF.

    Any contacts synced with the Yahoo account will be deleted from the phone if you turn it off. They will still be out there in Yahoo land, so if you turn it off and it deletes something you didn't want to, just turn it back on again.
    It's extremely unclear what you did when you say " I only created contacts and typed in emails that I had for those contacts.....so I am still not sure how to UNdo what I did without deleting anything"
    Undo WHAT, exactly? You said "I accidently turned ON contacts when I was turning ON my yahoo email account in Settings and now all the emails from contacts have been merged to create SEPARATE contact right under the original contact name."
    Just turn it off.

  • Turning off mouse & keyboard

    I would like to know if there would be battery consumption on the wireless mouse & keyboard when the Imac is turned off.I see an off switch on the mouse & I do turn it to off.Not sure how to turn off the keyboard though,Will battery still be used when Mac is turned off?

    Hi Don! 
    A couple of "bits" of information:
    I've had this machine about 3 months now, and the battery level for the keyboard is still showing 100%. However, I've had to change the batteries in the mouse about a month ago, and it's now reporting 50%.
    This is a problem (incorrect battery readings) that apparently started with OS X 10.6.7. The readings are consistently high.  The problem has been reported and the "powers that be" are aware of the issue.  I suspect a future release will take care of the incorrect reading issue.  In the meantime, the "mighty monitor" widget that runs under Dashboard seems to have correct readings.
    I have been using rechargeable batteries and a 15 minute charger (all obtained on eBay new at a reasonable price).  I happen to be using Energizers (2450 mAh).  Although the batteries do not last as long as Lithium batteries, the cost is less over a period of time.  Rechargeables also are "feel good" as they are environmentally friendly.
    Regards,
    Barry
    P.S.  My mighty mouse does require batteries more often than my keyboard, although I suspect it is because I use the mouse a lot as I type VERY slowly.
