Windows 8 Tablet / Touchscreen - On Screen Keyboard shortcut missing on Desktop

Hi
On a windows 7 tablet, on the desktop, if I clicked a field (e.g. in Windows Explorer) a small keyboard icon appears with a shortcut to the on-screen-keyboard (OSK).
On windows 8, this no longer appears. Instead you have to click the field, then select the OSK from the taskbar, and then click back in the field before typing.
Technical Stuff:
So far we've found that in Windows 8 there is no 'Options' window for the Input Keyboard in the Taskbar. In Windows 7 there WAS an 'Options' window which included the setting "For tablet pen input, show the icon next to the text box". This setting controlled
the shortcut icon that appears when you click in a field, and changes the following setting in the registry: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\TabletTip\1.7\ShowIPTipTarget. This setting does not appear in the registry on a Windows 8 machine and adding it in makes no
difference.
Rant:
Within 5 minutes of issuing a new Windows 8 tablet this problem was noticed by the end user, rendering the device almost useless if you want to work at any pace - and it was promptly handed back. Very frustrating and annoying as this feature appears
to have been removed. With Windows 8 pitched directly at the tablet market, surely this setting is in there somewhere - I can't think of any reason why it would be removed.
Any help much appreciated,
Andrew

I fully agree with ssxIdent and all other posters who find the new touch keyboard rather dumb.
There is no point in explaining why MS has decided to do things this or that way and what philosophic reasons they can come up with. MS needs to understand that software has to be accepted by the users and should not irritate them.
But this is irritating.
I thought one of the main concerns of MS was to be as intuitive as possible and provide a most satisfying user experiance - this is definetly not.
Has anyone at MS ever tried to e. g. rename several files in a directory with the touch keyboard? Especially when you get to the bottom of the screen. Then you not only need to have show/hide the keyboard permanently, you even have to bother moving it or
resize the window. That is NO GOOD USER EXPERIANCE!
I'd find it intuitive, if there was a way for developers in WPF or in Windows Forms to tag any UI element if it
Needs a keyboard (making the touch keyboard appear automatically) or
Would like a keyboard (showing a symbol next to the box, just like the X in WindowsStoreApps.TextBox, to trigger the keyboard or make it pop up automatically, if the keyboard had an option that can be set by the user to respond to these UI elements) or
Can have a keyboard (behaviour as is now)
Once an application was built this way, users would intuitively be able to navigate through their beloved apps haveing the keyboard at hand when they will need it anyway, being able to access it just with a twitch of the hand if they want it and not being
annoyed by it when they normally would not need it AND not being annoyed by permanently having to show/hide/show/hide that dratted thing by making miles of hand movement for nothing.
For applications that are not tailormade this way some options to adjust the keyboard behaviour would help, too. Just provide an option to hook the keyboard to any focus change, and give users a selection of options to what major control types the keyboard
should respond. For geeks you could even provide white list where they can add the GUIDs for classes the keyboard should show up automatically, a black list where the keyboard has to disappear and a gray list where the keyboard comes up on enter and disappears
on leave.
Some other thing I'm not happy with:
I know Modern UI came somehow via Windows Phone 7, but our tablets, touch enabled laptops, ... are no telephones, so why has the touch keyboard numpad have the "1" at the top left corner and not at the bottom left like every other hardware keyboard
or even the MS Windows OSK???????? In this point I contradict the explanation in the otherwise quite interesting article about the
Design Concept because typing in numbers has more often to do with maths than with telephoning or switching TV channels. And calculators have the 1,2,3 in the bottom row, as have HW keyboards. The other misconception lies therin that you don't need to find
1,2,3 quicker with your eyes when you are typing lots of numbers e. g. into spreadsheets. The fingers of HW keyboard, calculator or cash register users are so used to the conventional position of the digits that won't be easy to reshape. Additionally when
typing in quantities of numbers right handed users (90% of world population) will have the hand rest on the keyboard, the thumb on 0 and index finger, middle finger, ring finger doing their respective columns low value low down, high value high up. Who
is dialing phone numbers or changing TV channels this way? But what will users do more often with the numpad - especially when dealing with loads of input data?
Why can we not at least have digits on the alpha keyboard like on Android with long press on "Q"="1" ... "P"="0"? Password policy sometimes forces you to add digits in a PW, calling for switch alpha/num/alpha/num which
is annoying, too! Even with the peek thingy, since you need two hands.
Why is there no indication what special characters are hidden behind a long press? It's possible when you press Ctrl, despite most people already knowing what Ctrl+C means. e. g. where is the paragraph sign "§"on the touch keyboard? Or have
you left it out, so lawyers can't sue you for developing this touch keyboard ;-) You have added a set of emojos, but forgotten to put a character on that is on virtually any other keyboard??? Rather give us a layer user/developers could fill with their own
set of special characters and swap the Ctrl hints for a special character preview.
When I have my keyboard docked I can split the alpha key gaining access to the ODD numpad in the middle, but why can I not have the numpad when the alpha stays unsplit in the middle having a big black block to its left and right - there was space, why have
you not used it properly??? Nevermind feeling crowded, as mentioned in the article, give us an checkbox in keyboard options than we can decide if we want it or not. Since the article argues that users tend to get comfortable with the keyboard after a while
and needn't look at it, this "over crowded" feeling would fade away just the same. Or you might even dim it a bit when there is no finger near it.
Where are the Fn keys? Give us an option - we'll decide if we want it e. g. on the left side of the alpha block. Just as with numpad this could be dimmed, too.
I'd have a lot more suggestions to throw into this, but I fear you'll not even pick up on the easiest or most fundamental ones.
Prove me wrong! Please do! I dare you!!!

Why can't I get a replacement keyboard key from Apple?

Rant version
I was delivered a new 15 inch Macbook Pro with Retina screen with a broken 'V' key (literally, just the black plastic panel has a small broken clasp). I was unable to get a genius bar appointment anywhere within London Zone 1-2, Regent St, Stratford and Covent Garden all just tell me there are no appointments available. I called the Apple store in Stratford City to see if they could order a new 'V' key to the store so I could pick it up and click it on. They suggested I call Apple customer services as they wouldn't be able to help me unless I booked a Genius bar appointment, and obviously they had none. I was informed that I would have to send the entire machine away for at least 5 working days and then wait for a replacement to be shipped out. This is a total P.I.T.A as I have already started important projects on this machine.
I managed to book a Genuis Bar appointment in Bromley (30 minutes drive from my house) and called to see if it would be possible for them to order the part in and fit it on the day, during my appointment. They said I would have to come in, just to show them the machine, and then they could order the part using my serial number. I asked why I couldn't just give them my serial number and come in when the part was delivered. They said that the telephone operator at the store could not make any sort of contact with the genius bar, regardless of the fact they are in the same building.
I'd like to point out that everyone I have spoken to have been extremely nice, and understood my frustration, they just haven't been able to do anything that goes outside of their very limited protocol.I find it unacceptable that a company as powerful as Apple, are unable to post a keyboard key to a customer.
As a computer enthusiast, this is the easiest and most simple problem I have ever had with a machine. It has also been the most common-sense defying process I have ever had the misfortune of being a part of. If it were up to me I would just pay the £3 for a replacement online, but Apple have changed the positions of the clasps from the unibody model by about a few microns, and I don't feel like waiting until someone decides to scrap a new RMBP.
I don't mind if Apple don't want me to do the repair myself, that I may need to go through the enigmatic ritual of the genius bar to get this done (heaven forbid anyone but a Genius click the 'V' key on). I don't even mind if it takes a couple of weeks for the part to get there, I just want a replacement key, stuck on this laptop, without wiping the entire machine or sending it away for a week.
Short version:
If anyone knows where I can get a replacement 'v' key for the new 15inch Retina Macbook Pro then I'll love you forever.

Yes it is sad but true I think. I EZprint to do my pano's and they turn out excellent. Give them a try.

Apple TV 3 does not support the Microsoft Wedge Mobile Bluetooth Keyboard

Apple TV (3. Generation) still (17.02.2013) does not support the Microsoft Wedge Mobiloe Keyboard. I bought it especially for use with Apple TV but it doesn't work. Apple TV finds the keyboard with the exact name but can not connect. No 4 digit code appears that you can type in to your keyboard to compelete the connecting process and after a few seconds "connections fails" appears.
Now i dont't know if i should send it back to amazon to get back my money or keep it and wait until it maybe will work some day... I red from articles from beginning of january 2013 that a new Version of Apple TV is in the Pipeline (3.2) and that it has an other bluetooth chip. The same as in the iphone 5 that works with the MS wedge keyboard. So i really don't know if i should wait for the next few updates of my Apple TV or wait for a new Apple TV hardware- Update... Telephone calls with apple and microsoft doesn't brought useful results. Restore function of Apple TV doesn't work.
I hate that Apple always brew their own soup... Bluetooth is know for an easy connection to ALL devices but Apple TV supports only a hand full of keyboards. **** S**t!!!!!!!!!!!! -.-

Hi
This is the solution from Microsoft website. Work fine (don´t forget press and hold Fn key!!):
Connecting the Wedge Mobile Keyboard to a tablet PC
By default, the Bluetooth Wedge Mobile Keyboard pairs with most tablet PCs through secure simple pairing (SSP) with a passkey. Some tablets, however, may not support SSP well with a passkey.
In order to successfully pair your Wedge Mobile Keyboard to such a tablet, use the following alternative pairing mode.
Pair your keyboard through SSP without a passkey
Press and hold the Fn key at the same time as you press and hold the Connect button located under the keyboard. After 3 to 5 seconds, a small light on the top of the keyboard will blink green and red alternately. This means that your keyboard is discoverable to your tablet within 6 minutes.
On your tablet PC, from the Start menu, select Control Panel, and in Category view, locate Hardware and Sound.
Select Add a device.
When the keyboard is listed, select it, and follow the instructions to successfully pair your Wedge Keyboard with your tablet.
Note
If you want to pair your keyboard with a tablet or other computer that supports SSP with a passkey, press and hold the Connect button only.

Where can I get an Arabic USB/Wireless Apple keyboard?!

I have asked this to Apple UK and Apple USA telephone sales, who have no idea where to start (other than google!)
Where can I buy one of the Arabic USB keyboards?! How hard can it be to get one? I'm in London, with a UK Mac Pro. Apple say they won;t even get me a part number, unless the serial nu,ber Mac was originally sent with an Arabic keyboard....some of us speak/type/create documents in more than one language!!
Thanks for your help,
F

some of us speak/type/create documents in more than one language!!
It's certainly not necessary to have a physical keyboard for every language you want to work in -- the layouts are all switched by software in system prefs/international/input menu and that is what most people use. Plus stickers or skins if more is needed.
But see this note for the best source of Apple physical keyboards:
http://m10lmac.blogspot.com/2007/07/where-to-get-hardware-keyboards-in.html
Unfortunately I don't see Arabic there offhand. Perhaps a PC one would work?
For stickers or skins the main sources I am aware of are Aramedia, CustomKeys, DataCal, Hooleon, and SpeedSkin.

Why won't Macbook Pro startup properly without external monitor & keyboard?

If I connect a external monitor and keyboard to my late 2011 Macbook Pro (running Lion) it starts up just fine.
But if I try to start it up without these (or any other devices) attached, I get no display on the internal screen and the internal keyboard is ignored (the caps lock light doesn't light up when the key is pressed).
However, I don't think it's a hardware issue, as a PRAM reset seems to work (I get the second chime) indicating that the keyboard is OK. And I get a second or so of grey screen before the screen goes black.
I've tried resetting my SMC and my PRAM. The latter seemed to fix the problem once - but then it came back, and won't go away again this time.
I've also tried starting in safe, single user, and verbose mode, but none of these seem to make any difference.
I've been having some issues installing Windows (under both BootCamp and Parallels) but wouldn't have thought that these were related.

I have solved my own issue, so wanted to post here in case anyone else encounters the same thing.
My Macbook was less than 90 days old, so I booked a telephone support call from Apple. But they couldn't help. So I booked a genius bar appointment. I turned up, powered up my Macbook, and it worked fine!
Since it was working OK, there was nothing for them to investigate (though they ran some basic diagnostics anyway). But as soon as I got home it stopped working again.
Now this was really weird, so I started eliminate anything that was different between the environments - power supply, cooling pad, laptop stand...
My Macbook normally sits on an aluminium cooling pad, which in turns sits on a steel laptop stand. And when sitting on both of these (or just the stand) it exhibited the behaviour above. However, when I put it on a wooden desk it worked fine! So I replaced the aluminium cooler with a gel pad and it still worked fine. But why...?
I also noticed another difference. Once I reconnected an external display and keyboard, I found that my internal display now stayed on - whereas previously it had gone off (with only the external display staying on).
Searching on the internet, I discovered that this was normal behaviour under Lion, and what I had experienced previously was abnormal behaviour when the lid is open - but normal behaviour when the lid is closed. And since Macbooks use magnets to determine whether or not the lid is open, those who preferred the closed lid behaviour were using fridge magnets to fool their Macbooks into behaving that way.
It seems that my stand and/or cooler was acting in the same way as a magnet, and making my Macbook think that the lid was closed. So the internal display stayed off whether or not I had an external display connected. Isolating it from the stand with a gel pad has resolved this issue.
So I guess that Macbooks weren't designed to be used on metal surfaces...

How do I put a space between numbers without the keyboard switching to ABC?

Using the onscreen keyboard on the iPhone or iPad I often need to write a telephone number. I like to separate the area code from the rest of the number, and also write out phone numbers as XXX XXXX, with a space in the middle--but if I hit Space, the keyboard changes to ABC and I have to tap again to change back to 123 (Numbers) to finish the phone number--not a world shaking problem but a nuisance when you have to do it over and over. Is there a fix for this?---an example of something that is supposed to make your work easier, working against you. Thanks.

Although hyphens are commonly used in the formatting of US phone numbers, they are never used when formatting UK phone numbers. It just wouldn't look 'right' to use them in a UK number and could even confuse readers.

Auto brightness of screen and keyboard backlight not working

Basically, since I updated to OS X Lion, the auto brightness feature for the screen and keyboard hasnt been working, despite the fact I have it turned on
Thanks in advance for your help

Same problem here. I initially thought the auto-brightness problem had been fixed in 10.7.3, but sadly it hasn't. The auto-brightness works when the Mac starts, but I find it loses control and fails after wake from sleep.
I have telephoned AppleCare several times but they are not aware of this bug. They think a PRAM reset cures it, but it doesn't. As soon as the machine goes to sleep then auto-brightness fails on wake.
I have used the Apple Form to report the bug. It might eventually get fixed if others would kindly report it as well please. Here is the link:

Screen backlight and keyboard backlight not working

Yesterday I turned on my old but proud PowerBook17" and the *screen was black*, but you could barely see everything. *Also keyboard backlight is not working.*
I read many many forums and all say that black screen caused by inverter failure, but in my case keyboard lighting is also dead, so I wonder *if this is something different* and not the inverter.
I would appreciate any advises or ideas cause I love this machine..
Thank you in advance!

Automatic insertion of spaces in telephone numbers in iPhone OS 3.0.1

Hello!
I think there are two annoying behaviors in iPhone OS 3.0.1:
• if you go to contacts, create a new contact and enter a telephone number there will be inserted automatically spaces into the telephone number. One the one hand this behavior can be very practical (for example if iPhone 3.0.1 identify thereby already used formats of telephone numbers), on the other hand this behavior can be very annoying (for example if you want to create a special format for one telephone number). If you synchronize telephone numbers from your iMac to your iPhone, iPhone OS 3.0.1 put also automatically spaces into synchronized numbers.
• there is also missing a hyphen in the number keyboard to insert into the telephone number in iPhone OS 3.0.1.
First I think it would be a very good if there would be a function in iPhone OS 3.1 which deactivates the automatic insertion of spaces, secondly I think there should be a a hyphen in the number keyboard to insert into the telephone number in iPhone OS 3.0.1.
How do you think about my suggestions?

Keyboard keys on left side hard to use

I'm coming from a Samsung infusend am having the strangest time getting used to the left side of the razr keyboard.
It's like it's shifted a little too far to the right so I keep pressing 'a' when I want to press 's'. Anyone else have this problem?

Hello nitegale and welcome to community,
It could also be that the keyboard has not been properly fitted, you just need to remove the keyboard and reseat it.

Ibook g4 keyboard issue

I have an Ibook G4 that was purchased in Jan 2005. My 90 day phone support has dissolved however the laptop is still under hardware warrenty for 180+ days.
The right side of the spacebar sticks and is really annoying. How do I go about getting a replacement part from apple? I can't seem to find any other method to contact them other then phone and then it costs $49 for them to talk to me.
Thanks.

Amy welcome to apple discussions board.
I believe that within one year from the day of purchase you can still add apple care. that extends the technical telephone support from 90 days to 3 years and warranty from one year to three years.
I believe if an apple tech agent identifies your keyboard issue they can set it up for service. that means that you have to pay for any hardware replacement plus labor and shipping cost (both ways).
an alternative would be to contact an apple authorized service center, like CompUSA. hope that was useful. good luck and feel free to post back if have more questions.
