Keyboard directions keys and mouse pads are not very supportive in Pavillion G6 series

Hi All,
I have been using my Pavillion G6 series since 6 months now. The mouse pad and the direction keys have already started behaving as if they have become they are ages old. What should be done in this condition?

Hi. can you please explain further? Do you mean the sensitivity? You can easily change the settings on this.

Keyboard and mouse pad do not work; authorised service?

the keyboard and mouse pad on my new macbook (3 weeks old)have stopped responding. I have tried everything to restore it except reinstalling the operating system. The disk utility and hardware test do not show any problems, and when I attach an external mouse and keyboard the computer works just fine. Can this problem be anything other than a faulty connection or lose wire?
I live in Venezuela and will have major problems getting the mac back to the US (where it was purchased) for service. Apparently there are "authorised service providers" here in caracas; does that mean they can work on my mac without me losing the warranty?
thanks for any help..

Huh...I've never managed to do what you have, so I'm a bit out of ideas...
That being said, if a customer brought me a machine in that condition, I'd boot from a "live" Linux CD, save all important data on an external drive, wipe the HD clean and install a fresh OS.
Good luck.
Cheers,
George

Keyboard, power button and mouse pad not responding!

I was just using it normally and all of a sudden the screen is frozen, keyboard isn't responding and nor is it he power button or mouse pad! Please help! I bought this MacBook in December 2012.

Try holding down the power button for several seconds to see if it shuts the machine off, then reboot. If the problem is solved, great. If not, try resetting the SMC. Use the procedure for "a battery you should not remove yourself."

If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it.

TS3048 I have just purchased a new apple cordless keyboard. The numeric line of keys along the top are not functioning as they should. For example I am unable to get a question mark or a forward slash. I have tried holding down both shift and alt keys.

I have just purchased a new apple cordless keyboard. The numeric line of keys along the top are not functioning as they should. For example I am unable to get a question mark or a forward slash. I have tried holding down both shift and alt keys.

Thanks for prompt response - I tried what you suggested but I'm afraid it has not helped. It seems as though the line of number keys along the top aren't actually doing what is printed on them. Some are OK, but the further towards the right hand side of the keyboard you go, the less predicatable it becomes. So whilst the second key from the left gives me 1 and ! when holding the shift key, by the time I get to the 6 when I press and hold shift I get ^ rather than & symbol which is what is actually printed on the key. The & symbol is actually on the next key along - and when I hit the key with 8 I get * rather than the ( which is printed on they key but actually located on the next key along. Things get even more muddled by the time I am over on the right hand side as rather than a question mark (I have had to type the word as I cannot find the symbol anywhere!) I get this _ and the other symbol marked on the key is a comma, but I get - instead. It is going to drive me mad if every time I want to type something it is a guessing game....! What do you suggest - question mark

Please Help.

Hello there,
It sounds like you're going to either need your keyboard replaced, or have the buttons fixed. You can either have this done professionally, or personally, since the warranty states that you're permitted to replace the keyboard. For more information on how to replace it, visit this pdf and scroll down to keyboard, under replacement. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&ei=4U2bVeSZOMSu-QGwtIuIBQ&url=http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03935332&ved=0CCIQFjAB&usg=AFQjCNFI7Za3MTOYi3U2gqYwky_v2R-eIA&sig2=BEpyqWkFFkSjkR0z4r5v-Q

Cannot load the recovery media since my keyboard and touch pad do not work

My labtop Toshiba C55D-A5392 may have a virus issue which cause the keyboard and touch pad do not function. initially only a few keys don't work...after a couple days most keys don't work and now no keys are working and the touch pad failed too. I can't even load up windows now. I bought a recovery media from toshiba and try to reset the laptop to factory settings. I received the USB drive media from Toshiba, but I cannot load it since I cannot get the laptop into the bios (since my keyboard does not work). Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?

Try pressing the fn key and f2 to reach bios
or
try a usb mouse from your desktop

My keyboard and mouse pad aren't responding

When I started my Macbook this morning the keyboard and mouse pad didn't respond.
In my office I use a USB-keyboard and MightyMouse and it seems like the MB still thinks they are plugged in. Now I have attached a different keyboard and mouse but the computer still behaves as if I am using my office keyboard.
What should I do?
PS: This happened after I installed the latest update. Could this have something to do with it?

Try going to System Preferences>Keyboard & Mouse>Trackpad> and toggling (check and then uncheck or the reverse) the option "Place two fingers on trackpad and click button for secondary click". I have my system set to safe sleep (hibernatemode 1) instead of the default sleep and the trackpad doesn't appear to load correctly on wake from sleep and the keyboard sometimes fails to respond. Doing the previous appears to reload the trackpad or at least makes it function correctly.
As for the keyboard functionality, I run my fingers across the rows of keys and within a minute the system recognizes the keyboard. The keyboard failure is rare, that trackpad is constant. this has happened since 10.4.6 and I don't know if it always did or is a regression.
For the keyboard section you may want to check System Preferences>International>Input Menu and try toggling the keyboard layout.
If you have a third party driver that may be causing an issue because I'm not sure how a Mac keyboard should work differently from any other keyboard with the right buttons.
Good Luck,

G70-250US notebook synaptics mouse pad will not work & keyboard will only work until I log onto pc

I have a G70-250US model notebook with Vista 32. I decided to reload OS due to issues with mouse pad and keyboard. I still have the same problem whereby the mouse pad will not work and keyboard will only work until I log in and then it will not work. External mouse and keyboard will work fine. I tried uninistalling drivers for both and rebooting and letting OS find new hardware and install the drivers and this still did not correct. I even pulled down the synaptics driver from HP site and still not working. I checked the BIOS and it is the most recent. I am at a loss. Any ideas on these issues.

Ok I tested a bunch of different Firefoxes on my pos linux box.

I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 I plan to use as a replacement for the Sony Vaio when it pops. I've held out as long as possible because it lacks a pci or usb wifi and I really didn't want to run 50 feet of cat5 up a flight of stairs to it. [as i type this i think i remember where a linksys stick for it might be]. Yes I guess it's about time I just do that.
Don't laugh but the reason I held off adding a simple usb keyboard was just lack of space in my tiny bedroom. My setup is on two tray tables side-by-side. Sony Vaio is on left one, my lcd monitor and mouse are on the other. I barely have room to put a cup of coffee on the one with monitor and mouse let alone a full size usb keyboard lol.
Anyway thank you again for all your help.

Keyboard and Mouse pad don't work.

Can anyone help me? I figured I should come here before bringing it to a shop.
I have upgarded my ram from 2gigs to 4gigs with Crucial ram.
Though regardless if I have the new ram or old ram in, my keyboard and mouse pad don't work. There were occasions before when the keyboard would lock up for a short while, but I have no idea what's causing this.
My only thought would be that sometimes my computer would get unusually hot, but i just turn it off when that happens.
Everything else works fine, the USB ports work with keyboards and mouse's, the power chord works fine, there seems nothing wrong with the battery or display.
Thanks you for any help.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Has your keyboard and mouse quit working altogether or just when the computer is hot? And do I understand that an external keyboard and mouse will work with no problems?
And I am wondering about your computer running unusually hot. Are your fans operating properly? You might want to run the extended version of the Apple Hardware test to be sure that the fans and thermal sensors are working properly. If they are not, you will get one or more error codes.
Another thing to do to check when your Mac is unusually hot is the Activity Monitor. Select "All Processes" at the top right and check for any process running that should not be which is using lots of CPU.
I don't know if the keyboard problem is related to the heat problem or not, but I would want to know what is causing the heat problem too. Over time, excessive heat can cause damage to the logic board. It could also conceivably damage the ribbon cable which connects the keyboard and I would guess that the trackpad could also be affected. So it is important to see what is going on here. If you have been experiencing excessive heat on a regular basis, this might be the underlying cause of your keyboard and trackpad problems. If so, the heat problem will have to be fixed or the other problem will recur over time.
Try the AHT and post back with any results. Also, use iStatPro to check on your fans and make sure both are running at roughly equal speeds and that they run faster when the computer gets hot.
Good luck!

My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work

Hi. My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work. Been going on for a few months now. Read in the support forum that replacing the battery might help however it hasnt. Ran updates for Windows Vista and Microsoft Security Ess. Boots up just fine however unable to place in my password to get to my user profile and always have to work from guest......unless I have a USB keyboard handly at the time. I use a USB wireless mouse as well.
Please help and thank you

The keyboard and mouse (touchpad) are separate devices which could go bad at the same time but that would be a huge coincidence. I would try reseating the ribbon cables to the motherboard for both. Here is the Service Manual:

I am still getting redirected to various web sites when using Safari. My PC is not affected but my I phone and I pad are. I have reset my router and changed my admin name and password. I am still being redirected.

Chances are you mis-typed a character in the Wifi password and the devices saved that information. Now whenever you try to connect the device refers to the wrong password and the Jetpack does not accept your connection. Tell your devices to forget the wireless connection and start over.
Once you enter the proper WiFi credentials the Jetpack will allow you to connect.
