Keyboard double typing letters

clicking letters like "i" o "d" on screen appear "id" or typing "s" it appears "lS". While clicking "Delete" button, it cancel the previous letter and substituite it with "p"!!!

Since I did the last update the double typing has startede on my Classic. It's just with "0" now but I have no doubt it will get worse. This was a big issue with my Q10 and I sent it back several times. However I now understand that it is in fact a software issue. Blackberry really needs to make this a priority. I am on BB so I can type up a storm in emails, texts, etc just like everyone else with little error. I cannot afford the time it takes to go back and fix extra letters....Bb can you hear us??? FIX IT or at least address it! Obviously a huge issue!

Keyboard not typing letters just shortcuts

Hi, I recently turned my laptop on to find the keyboard not working properly. Everytime I hit a letter key it takes me to the shortcut for the letter instead of actually typing it. The mouse is working slightly, but I can't double click items or unclick any checked boxes in settings. If anyone has any idea how to resolve this your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Dont think that the driver reinstallation will solve this issue.
Fact is the OS use the own Microsoft windows drivers.
I would recommend removing the keyboard from the unit and try to check the keyboard cable connection. Try to clean the connectors.
But be careful. If you have no experience in such procedures you should contact technicians!

While typing, the keyboard starts typing multiple letters. I'm fed up of this. I don't think I am doing something at my own, it's happening at its own. Is it because of some problem in the hardware since OS and system refresh could not resolve this.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If you have done this like I describe above and the problem continues I suggest you contact Apple Support or make an appointment at an Apple Store and have your iPad examined by a technician.

My keyboard will work for about 5-12 typed letters and then will beep each time I try to type a letter, and no type appears, and I have to click on the field again to start typing!! Just getting this question typed was a huge chore!! We even bought a new keyboard and it did not fix the issue.

It depends on what keyboard you have, if not than their May be a problem with your device

Typing letters and suddenly get numbers and then nothing

This is the second time in a week I've had this happen and I can't seem to find a similar thread on these very helpful forums, so maybe someone has some ideas?
I was working on an email and started typing "Form 4562 when it becomes..." and then hit the backspace key to fix a typo and after the "2" when I pressed any letter the keyboard started typing numbers, about 5 or 6 of them, instead of the letters I was typing. Then it wouldn't type anything. I switched to Firefox (Command-Tab) to try to come here and couldn't type anything in the address bar. So because the letter keys are not working I can't quit any applications (can't hit Command-Q but I can hit Command-Tab? Why are the non-letter keys working?) I can work the trackpad and get to Force Quit and so I force quit every open application. Restarted and all is good again. For now. Basically a repeat of what happened a few days ago (although I didn't write down what I was typing and in what app at the time it happened, but basically the same thing.) It's as if the keyboard says, "That k is a 3, that d is a 7", and after a few it realizes it isn't right so just quits typing.
Open apps at the time: Firefox, Mail, iCal, Excel, AddressBook, Skype, Adobe Reader, Preview, iBiz, TextEdit

In case there is dirt or food crumbs trapped under the keys run a vacuum hose over the keys or use a can of compressed air.
If the above does not work AND you do NOT have AppleCare, take the keyboard apart & clean it.

If you have AppleCare, call them & let them deal with it or take your MBP to your local Apple Store or AASP.

How do i fix my keyboard its typing symbols

Please assist me in my quest to fix my keyboard. I am currently typing from alternative computer. Just a few hours ago, my keyboard started typing in symbols and Latin instead of letters and not Latin. I did not do anything. I did not reset my language. WHAT IS GOING ON? HOW CAN I FIX IT?

I bought an iMac yesterday, and this morning it's doing the same thing. I've been asked to take it back to the store tomorrow, which is such a pain.
I have also found that in safari it will download the page instead of opening it, unless I open in a new window. It does the same thing in all apps, but only after you've been typing a few sentences, which all appear ok. I have tried disabling the alt key, which did not work, and checked languages etc, and all set to English....
Any thoughts? Thankfully my macbook is ok, otherwise I'd be really stuck!!

Keyboard problems (typing like t3his7) *PLEASE HELP*

Just a few hours ago my apple keyboard started typing like th7is4 or like why2 do8es my8 ke2yb8or8ad ty8pe like8 th7is
It's only on the first line of letters though.
I've tried everything from restarting my computer, rebooting it in safe mode, going to system preferences and turning off the keyboard and mouse.
I've done a little research and they say it might have to do with something I pressed, I might have activated "NUMLOCK", but unfortunely my keyboard does not have "clear" or "NUMLOCK"
PLEASE HELP!
I have a iMac, with the aluminum wireless keyboard. Just bought a year ago running on 10.6.8.
THANKS.

If you have access to a usb keyboard, does not have to be a Mac kb, you could plug it in and check if it is just the kb, not something deeper.
If the problem is the MB keyboard, you could try, with the MB turned off, jiggling the keys back and forth and generally treating it as if some keys are stuck. Beyond that, you could look into replacing the kb.
Good luck.

Double typing issue on used device - where to send it?

Hi!
I bought a used Q10 not even a year ago. Now the double typing issue is so bad that I need to send it in and get it fixed or replaced. The problem is, I don't know where to send it. I live in Germany and the German BlackBerry support website wants me to contact my dealer. Since I bought the device used I don't have a dealer to contact. The person I bought the phone from tells me she's got it as present and doesn't have a receipt. How could I go at this?
Thanks in advance,
-pac

Will your German carrier (Vodafone?) allow you to pay for the service job?
Since it was purchased used, the device is likely no longer is under warranty.
It could be a problem of simple moisture affecting the keyboard. You can remove the battery and place the device in dry white rice for 3-5 days and see if that corrects it.

Brand New MacB Air and i haven't been able to get passed the format which has had to be done twice because, I have a French Numeric Keyboard and Language in English. The minute I type in my password, the keyboard gives me letters that i did NOT type.

I live in Switzerland and can only buy a Mac Air with a French or German keyboard, no chance to buy an English keyboard Mac here,. When setting up I chose the French numerique keyboard, although there are two choices French or French numerique. I put in my language as English. When all was set up I came to the start page and had to put in my password, by the grace of g....I just happened to see the first letter I typed before it turned into a dot. My password which was supposed to start with the number 2 showed a french e with accent before it quikly became a dot.
Because of the dot system, this meant that I had no clue what the keyboard was typing as my password ...........and true enough my password was not accepted despite my trying all combinations. I have had to reformat twice now thanks to Apple Chat and both times my password was not accepted. I am in the process of formatting it again, this time on my own. If the Start page does not accept my password again this can only mean that the Mac left the factory with faults. I could not be more disappointed with the money spent and the time and trouble that Apple Chat and I have spent in trying to correct a brand new out of the box Mac. I have a cheap Toshiba laptop also with a french keyboard and english language which gave me no trouble at all. I am not impressed with the so called King of computers! First of all the dot system is daft. People want to be able to see and confirm their passwords before they are set for good. Second, this problem is going to give me a lot of grief. Switzerland business is not renowned for its after sales service or the time it takes to do repairs. When I had an issue with my Vaio laptop which was still under warranty, they kindly picked it up from my house, repaired and promptly returned it. How's that for good proper service.

i didn't read a lot of your 2nd paragraph, but it seems like the password is the issue, right?
do a true clean install
reboot your machine and hold down command+option+r, you should see a spinning globe - if you don't see the globe or anything that reads internet recovery, shut down and try again
at menu, chose disk utility and once there, find your HD on the left side, select the physical name and erase it as mac journaled
exit disk utlity
at menu, choose install OSX
this time, when it asks for a password just hit continue, it will let you complete without a password
you should be able to get into your laptop, now figure out what password you'll be able to use with your kb issue

How do I hide the keyboard while typing an email?

On the iPad you can hide the keyboard anytime while typing. I cannot see a way to hide the keyboard when typing a mail message. I saw a post saying you close, save, go to your saved messaes and open the message again - too time consuming. There is a fix on the jailbroken site, but I dont want to jailbreak the phone. There must be a way to hide the keyboard in a mail messge. In a text message you can. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit
I CAN, but not fully for a preview, as the text box goes up completely after 80 odd characters on the iPhone.
So, now i cannot see a previous message for reference.
Apple needs to incorporate a 'hide keyboard' button

When I first downloaded to 7.1, it made my keyboard black with white letters. Very distinct. Now, it's somehow back to white with black letters. How do I get my black keyboard with white letters back ? iPhone 5S

You changed the proper preference, but you don't need to relaunch iTunes. You do, however, need to click the blue OK button at the bottom right of the preferences window. The change will happen then.

BlackBerry Passport - double typing issue

After about 4 months of usage, I began to start having the double-typing issue on my Passport (which, from what I read, is not uncommon, both for Passports and Classics).
It doesn't seem to te be the hardware issue - I can't recreate it by simply pushing the button, it happens randomly.
Is it possible that it is related to the installation of the update of the OS? I have 10.3.1.1565, but I didn't have it with the previous OS versions.
Does anyone know what is the reason of this? Or the possible solution?
Thanks,
L.

I'm not seeing it. Now running PassportSQW100-1/10.3.1.2576
I'm not confident I'm right about this, but if it is happening on the same key(s) even if it is intermittent, I would tend to believe it is hardware.
If you want to rule out software you need to do a clean OS install. I think there might be a good argument for using Sachesi or autoloader, but I'm not sure.
