Keyboard - Combination Option key+number is not working

I have a actual problem with my czech wireless keyboard. When I use the right Option key in combination with numbers 1-9, nothing happens. Now, I am not able to write @ without the keyboard viewer or changing into US keyboard layout. What is surprising is that other combinations with Option key work as usual. Can anybody help. Can that be caused by some SW update?

G60 keyboard has some keys which do not work.

Bottom row and qwerty row all have the outside keys not working. the two center keys on each row work fine. Could this be the keyboard or an asic on the MB?

Hi,
While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
Shut down the notebook, 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 and see if this will launch the Start-up Menu. If it does, 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.

Are you familiar with Ink on mac os x?
Normally one needs to have a tablet or device that supports Ink to use all the features such as hand writing recognition and such, but
one can enable parts of it without the proper device.
Anyway, if Ink is not shown in the system preferences, you can go to /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras and double click on Ink.menu
That puts the Ink icon on the Menu Bar where you can access the Ink preferences from the drop-down menu and then turn Ink on and Show Ink Window
The small window has symbols for the Cmd, Shift, Option and Control keys and then one can press, for example, the Option symbol and set the clone source point in photoshop.
Don't know whether it will work for your students, but thought it was worth a mention.

How to fix my iPhone keys that will not work

When I am using my iphone keyboard, the upper row Q thru P will not work. That is in verticle mode, when laid horizontally, the R will not work.
On the number keys, the 4 will not work. The comma key also does not work.
I was told that a software restore could cure this. Also, I tried to load the new version 7 software, hoping this might help. But the Accept option would not work when accepting the TERMS from Apple. It seems that only works in verticle so that whole row/area does not work.

RESET DEVICE
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).

When I am on a Youtube video that is running and I want to switch to another tab, the Ctrl+ tab number does not work, is that intended functionality?

When I am on a Youtube video that is running and I want to switch to another tab, the Ctrl+<tab number> does not work, is that intended functionality?

This can happen when the video player (Flash plugin) has the focus.
In that case the plugin consumes all the key presses.
You will have to click with the mouse elsewhere on the page or in the user interface to make keyboard shortcuts work.

If you recently purchased this then it is not likely to be a valid sale/purchase. Adobe does not sell older versions of their products and no one but Adobe provides student/teacher licensing. If you purchased this some time years ago and it is only recently that you find you are not able to reactivate it with the original serial number you can try contacting Adobe Support thru chat and see if they will be willing to work with you to resolve this.

I think you forgot to type in HP g6 1239as because I could not find HP g6 123sa. This is the only steps they give for your lat top. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01458194&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=uk&dlc=en&lc... I would do the reset direction first then do the update drives for it. To see if that fixes the issue. If it doesn't then yout computer needs repairing. frrw.

Skype number unreliable / not working?

I am using Skype on a Galaxy S3.
Ever since I signed up for a Skype number I have had people emailing me saying that they were unable to contact me on the Skype number that I gave them. This has become more frequent just recently and I have missed some important calls.
When I call my Skype number from a landline it's a bit hit and miss if a connection is made.... sometimes I get "number not recognised" response from the landline. People who have attempted to call me report similar isssue or sometimes that the number is continually busy and does not go to voicemail.
I called skype support yesterday via Live Chat and was talking to the support guy for 1h 20min and achieved nothing.... he blamed it on everything from my phone provider, internet provider, that my email account was overloaded etc etc ... I think the guy must have bored and was having a joke with me..... that or he was a complete and total utter ####### idiot.
I have attached a screen shot showing settings on my Skype account page.
Currently (23 Jan) my Skype number is not working at all... when I attempt to call from landline I
get the message "the numebr that you have dialled has not been recognised"
Anyone else having reliability issues with a Skype number? Unless I get the issue resolved I will be cancelling account as it is worthless to me in it's current working state.
One more question.... I managed it yesterday, but cannot find it tooday, but how **bleep** do you get to the link for Live Chat.... all i do is get directed to send email???

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys that are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Can anyone help? of course this happened after my warranty expired.

**update**
I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose. In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!). Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind. I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store. But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working.
So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off. Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
Hopefully this might help someone.

Home Keys on Laptop not working sometimes

Good Day,
Our HP Pavilion G4-2013TX's keyboard acts up sometimes. The Home keys (i.e., A S D F J K L and semi colon) keys sometimes do not work. I just have to wait a bit or furiously press them to get them to work again.
The keys are working currently (this message is evidence.) I don't know how to invoke the error at the moment.
Please help. I've been getting instances that I need to have a good working keyboard but the homekeys don't cooperate. A Sort of troll, actually.
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Appended Key figure is not working in Delta reverse record

Dear All,
I have enhanced 2LIS_11_VASCL datasource, to pull value from condition record, called Surchage.
I have set reversal indicator for this field in my datasource. I have written code in CMOD to get this value from KONV table of that sales order.
Now when value is changed, delta record for this, automatically creates reversal record, but it shows new value of surcharge as negative, because that code is pulling value which currently exists in table.
For example for order 350089 , if surchage is $ 100 . User changes it to $200
Then I get following record.
Reversal Record - $200 (This should be instead -$100 , i.e. previous value)
New Record - $100.
Because of this my new value is not getting updated in table.
I can't use overwrite mode in ODS because some other technical reason.
How can I solve this problem?
appended Key figure is not working in Delta reverse record

LIS have before-after delta. So ODS should be in Overwrite mode. If that is not possible.. try sorting the records in Start Routine such way that the - 100 $ is above the - 200 $ records in Data Package.
but this is risky as it will affect other key figures for which things maybe fine. I guess you need take Data Package records in an internal table. And then sort this internal table. then you can read the internal table in update routine of this key figure.
OR (If you are on BI 7.0) you introduce an InfoSource in between DS and DSO with Overwrite mode for this Key Figure.

I have successfully installed my creative suite to my old computer. I have a new one I would like to put it on. My serial number is not working. Please advise.
