ITunes 7.1.1 eject key no longer works

Since updating to iTunes 7.1.1 the eject key (keyboard) no longer works, anyone else have this happen? Have to use GUI eject key in iTunes and DVD player.
Power Mac G4 Sawtooth, iBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Well, I'm not sure about this being a feature.
Reason is that, when I go to eject my iPod using the GUI my CD tray ALSO started ejecting. And now the CD tray ejects (no CD in it I may add) and the iPod didn't eject but froze. SO what's up with the eject sequences (a feature causing me hassles).
This latest iTunes 7 update is really making me upset. It wasn't broken for me before.

Upgraded OSX 10.3.9 to 10.4.10 eject key no longer works?

I recently upgraded my dual 800 MHz Power PC G4 from 10.3.9 to 10.4.10 and have had several small problems I am trying to work out as follows:
eject key will not work on apple pro keyboard....tried two other keyboards and none of them worked...you can eject the disc from iTunes and other software driven apps
can no longer print on CD's or DVD's to my Epson Stylus Photo 960 using Epson Print CD software and driver version 1.56 or new beta2 version 5.0.0...suspect this is a Classic problem as the software runs in Classic mode.
Any help would be much appreciated....I really need to use the eject key and would like to print on DVD's again!
Thanks

You have to hold the eject key for a few seconds unless you are using it in combination with another key.

Volume and Eject Keys No Longer Work After Boot Camp 2.1 Update

Earlier this evening I allowed the Apple Software Update app in Windows to update Boot Camp to version 2.1. I allowed the computer to restart following a successful installation of the update. I've restarted two more times since then. Ever since the update (including before the computer restarted for the first time following the update), the volume and eject keys on my keyboard don't work. I also have an Apple Wireless Keyboard (one of the 2003-2007 era white/clear ones) and it exhibits the same problem. Both keyboards otherwise work fine. The computer also otherwise works fine, and there's no evidence of any driver problems.
Some other potentially relevant information:
1- The Boot Camp icon is no longer present in the Windows System Tray.
2- The Boot Camp Control Panel is still present in the Windows Control Panel and it works fine.
3- All settings in the Boot Camp Control panel are unchanged from their defaults. In particular, I have confirmed that "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" is still unchecked.
4- The Windows Device Manager properly recognizes both keyboards as Apple Keyboards.
I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate on an early 2008 MacBook; system specs are in my signature. Any ideas?
Thanks for taking the time to read this, and double-thanks if you can respond with any suggestions!

Ah, the joy of working with computers...:( Apparently, from my woes with the same problem, the Apple Keyboard Manager is rightfully entered into the Run directory in the Windows registry at HKLM/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Run.
Why it doesn't start I still have to find out, but this may be because I have Parallels Workstatio installed as well and switch back between a virtualized Windows and a Bootcamp Windows. However, after installing Bootcamp 2.1 first and then SP3 IN THE BOOTCAMP ENVIRONMENT everything seems to work, except the Energy Options taskbar icon and Apple Keyboard Manager.
Will keep you posted on any progress I make.
Apple Support, BTW, was absolutely abysmal, with them even refusing to accept the ticket at all, on the grounds that they have no knowledge about Windows. Apple, get your support fixed!

Eject key no longer works

Suddenly my eject key stopped working. The image pops up on the screen like normal showing you've pressed the key but the drive won't open. It doesn't open even if it's empty. ideas?

Bad habits make for bad installs.
Good backups, repair first, not after. You can also install the stand alone update while booted from another drive, which makes it even safer to apply.
There will always be "operator error" which could be, you know, listening to iTunes while upgrading the OS.
Follow the articles and tips already mentioned on the forums and Mac news sites, and you will be fine.
Sometimes 3rd party software and hardware has to be updated for almost any OS update but that is nothing new either, and there don't appear to be many.

Function keys no longer working with a new keyboard...

I got a new keyboard and my function keys no longer work with it. I am used to have them used in the standard format, i.e. F10-F12 control the voume, etc. I have the "Use all f1,f2, etc." button clicked. I have also tried restarting my computer. Any thoughts?

Try doing a SMC reset and PRAM reset.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

All of a sudden my Enter key no longer works in SQL Developer.

All of a sudden my Enter key no longer works in SQL Developer. I don't know how I managed to disabled it. Can anyone tell me how to re-enable it?
I already tried the following:
- I closed the application and re-opened it. - It didn't work
- I re-started my machine. I didn't work
Help! Thank you

The same thing has just happened to me and this was very useful to correct the problem --- but now I am wondering why or how this happened. To the best of my knowledge, I haven't make any setting changes so why did I lose the Enter action?

I'm going to see if Currys can remove all info from my hard drive and hopefully recover my itunes, but if this does not work is there another way to get them?

The computer not working in no way means the drive is inaccessible.
Place the drive in an external enclosure.
Use the backup of the computer to restore the data to the new computer.

Control key no longer works after update.

After updating Lion the control key no longer works. It beeps when pressing control and then a number key but nothing happens.
This is left control key though. Right still works?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search.
Step 1
Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
Step 4
ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
You can then quit Terminal.

Return Key no longer works in sql windows or procedure editors.

The <return> key no longer works in my SqlDeveloper editors. Is there an easy fix? I tried resetting the Option for the carriage return but it did not change anything.

So if you go to your shortcut keys (Tools > Preferences > Shortcut Keys) and search for "Enter", what commands are associated with the Enter shortcut? If you have tried remapping the Enter key to something else, it may have removed the standard association with the "Insert New Line" command.
You can reset to the default (which should fix the problem, but lose any custom shortcuts) with More Actions (top right) > Load Keyboard Scheme > Default.

Backlit keys no longer working...

After recent SMC? firmware auto update, my backlit keys no longer work.
When I try to turn them on (dim/bright) via keyboard shortcut keys, I get a circle with a slash thru it on the on-screen keyboard logo...

Hah, Im not sure but I may have the opposite to your problem. I'm here in a very dark room, so the back light comes one, but *I am watching videos* so I'm not touching the laptop. The keys would go dark until I touched the laptop again or that is what I thought. Now the back light comes on randomly. I'm going to have to research this keyboard to see what sets it off.
It occurs to me that you're getting a light show based on overall brightness fluctuations in the program content of your DVD! Do the keys light up when a dark scene is on the screen? Then go off once the light level in the flick goes back up?
Take your Apple-branded black cleaning cloth and drape it over the iSight camera, which is where the ambient light sensor is. Sort of like playing peek-a-boo with the MB! (We have a 2 1/2-year-old daughter [not MacBook]). Great way to test the KB backlight (which we didn't get ourselves, BTW).

I and K keys no longer working on Macbook keyboard

The I and K keys no longer work, it seems. I've restarted, attempted to clean out the keyboard, restarted again, etc. No dice. Sometimes when I push I or K I'll get an odd string of characters--'YIOU' or a bunch of symbols--but mostly I just get no response. I wasn't doing anything unusual when this started and I didn't spill anything on it.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I have heard around the message boards about this kind of problem, and no one seems to know what the problem is. Your best bet is to take it into Apple and they can fix it for you. If you are in warranty, they shouldn't charge you, especially since you didn't spill anything into the keyboard (also a common problem). if you are out of warranty, you're looking at around $90 or so (still better than not being able to finish that email or that final report!). i had my keyboard replaced for a different reason, but the receipt said I would have been charged said amount had I not been under warranty.
hope that helps!

Menu key no longer working

Since I first used my Nike+ with my ipod a few weeks ago the menu key no longer works.
Can anyone help please. I use my ipod all the time and im desperate for it to work again

Cheers! Store is now working. I didn't quite do things in your order as your post came in after I started experimenting. This is what I did:
Three-finger reset again.
Installed the .sisx file above (cwrt core).
Installed the Nokia Store from Betalabs (with Qt 4.7.4).
Read your post, so deleted those two files you mentioned from installated apps.
Installed earlier version of Nokia Store from your link.
Ran this, which prompted me to upgrade.
Can now log in without the black screen.
It seems remarkable that doing a factory reset means the phone doesn't work.
That's the question;Nokia advise to never do a 3 finger hard reset.this process delete some files that isn't recoverable even reinstall software.
I have a C7 as well and already perform a 3 finger hard reset,but a software reinstall put it back as 2out of the box".don't know why this do not works in Nokia 701
At least you have the store back again right?
As far as i know it should be missing in your phone,the photo and video editor right?
That's why i took mine to Nokia Care Center,they put the phone as out of the box.

Fn Keys and Eject Keys Don't Work in Windows

I'm fairly good to go with Snow Leopard and Boot Camp and on installing Windows on my wife's 13" MacBook Pro that I finally convinced her to get, I had a "hard drive not big enough" during the SP3 update BUT found a solution for that, however, all the threads I read on the above topic related to Boot Camp versions of the 2.x genre and I have 3.x genre. So, does anyone have any ideas how to fix this on the Windows side?
- All function keys (excepted F3) are non-functional.
- Eject key does not work
- No right click of any kind other than with a mouse
- No scroll features
- No Boot Camp icon in the tray
Lastly (and just an add in) on the OSX side, her Mac HD icon was not there since the Boot Camp assistant was launched AND dummy me (I did this once before - I know idiot) tried to drag it from Finder to the desk top and exploded it. So, how do I get the Mac HDD and icon back in both Finder AND the Desktop.
Thanks in advance for those who have an offering.

Actually I didn't trash Boot Camp, it never populated in the tray after the install. Moreover, the thing i destroyed was the MacHDD from the desktop and from the Go Finder listing and want to get that puppy back
Boot Camp is running just that the F keys other than F3 are not functional nor is the Eject key . . PLUS . . as I say there is no tap to click, not two finger scrolling, and no 3 or 4 finger functions operational features.
Please help!
