Keyboard layout issue only with Windows 7, not Windows 8

Hello,
I have a strange behaviour with Remote Desktop on Windows 7. I have a RDS 2012R2 deployment, with TS Gateways, broker and remote desktop collection. I have published a RemoteApp.
My issue is with the keyboard layout send by the client. My server is in English - Swiss French keyboard.
With my Windows 8 client, keyboard in "French", the keyboard used in my RemoteApp is correctly set to "French"
With my Windows 7 client, keyboard in "French", the keyboard used in my RemoteApp is set to "Swiss - French". This is not the correct layout.
Why under Windows 7 the keyboard layout is not send correctly ? 

Hi Sebastien,
Initially please use latest RDP version 8.1 for windows 7 and check the result. 
If you want the session to use the default keyboard layout stored in the user profile instead of the layout provided by the Remote desktop Server client after the user logs on to the Remote desktop Server computer, you can set the IgnoreRemoteKeyboardLayout
registry value to 1. After users first connect to the Remote desktop Server computer, configure the default keyboard layout and input language that you want, and then log off. All later user logons will use the default keyboard layout and input language from
the profile.
To do so, please perform the following steps: 
1. On the remote desktop server, click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
3. On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following registry information:
 Value name: IgnoreRemoteKeyboardLayout
Data type: REG_DWORD
Value data: 1
4. Quit Registry Editor.
After you first connect to the Remote desktop Server computer, configure the default keyboard layout and input language that you want, and then log off. All later user logons will use the default keyboard layout and input language from the profile.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

  • Keyboard layout issue

    I've used the "French Canadian" keyboard layout from manual typewriters in high school in the 1980s to my current PB G4 using OS 10.4.11.
    When I switched from OS 9 to OS 10, the "French Canadian" keyboard layout that had always been there in OS 6, 7, 8 and 9 had suddenly disappeared in OS X. After some posts on forums such as this one back in 2005 when I bought my PB G4, someone supplied a "French Canadian.rsrc" keyboard layout file that was the same as the original kb layout file I had used in Mac OSs past and I was a happy camper...
    I just bought a used MacMini running OS 10.6.2 today. I transfered the "French Canadian.rsrc" keyboard layout file from the library/keyboard layout folder on my PB running 10.4.11 to the same folder on my MacMini. The French Canadian keyboard layout now appears in the "Languages and Text" control panel in the System preferences and I can select it along with other keyboard layouts within that control panel. When I click the Input select popdown menu in the menu bar, however, the French Canadian keyboard layout appears along with the other ones, but it is greyed out, so I can't select it.
    I would really, really appreciate being able to get my old French Canadian keyboard layout back. Is there any reason the file works in OS 10.4.11 but not in OS 10.6.2 ?? Is there any way to change the file so it does work with the latest OS ??
    Thanks for any help or suggestions.
    Marc P.

    Sometimes the old .rsrc stuff will not work any more. OS X currently uses .keylayout files. See if this note helps regarding your particular problem:

    i have a website which opens only with google, but not google from safari. how i can get google w/o using safari?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

    I want to open a discussion about keyboard layout on iPAD´s, including the best one iPAD4. How one can design such sofisticated technical item for diverse work/activity, includes mainly for note writings and meetings, but the writing procedure is so slow becuase of the keyboard layout. It is really crucial to solve this problem in order to avoid developing additional keyboard from third-party developers. This function has to be integrated, namely: TO HAVE A COMPLETE SEETING OF LETTERS AND NUMBERS IN THE DEFAULT KEYBOARD LAYOUT, FOR EFFICIENT WRITINGS.
    WHAT YOU THINK ???

    This is an iPad user to user forum. Apple doesn't read or respond. You can make a suggestion.
    Send feedback to Apple.

    I bought a case with a bluetooth connected keyboard. Much easier to use than the on-screen keyboard if you do a lot of typing. You can use many/most computer wireless keyboards with the iPad.

  • HT2587 Keyboard Layout Creator. Unfortunately I do not find any layout with the word "Apple" behind it out of the list.

    I was not able to find a specific keyboard layout with the following word "Apple" in parenthesis.
    Using Keyboard Layout Creator v1.4
    Did someone else?
    Thank you.

    All those layouts should work with Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8...
    You get the parenthesis, the @ sign and other symbols exactly on the same key on OS X and Windows (see last 2 screen shots for the Swiss French layout).
    The only difference is that on Windows to "alt/option" you must either [ctrl] + [alt left] or [alt right].
    For a reminder if you want to toggle between "standard function keys" and "special features printed on each key" you can set this in "System Preferences > Keyboard" and "BootCamp Control Panel" respectively on OS X and Windows.

  • Two different keyboard layout issues

    I have two computers, each with a separate issue that's been driving me nuts:
    1. My G5 PowerMac (running 10.4) is set to use the Dvorak layout. That's it. It's the only one selected in the input menu list. Not even the standard US layout is selected. However, what kills me is that if I have to start up the computer holding down keys (like booting to a CD, resetting the Pram or PMU, etc.), or when I logout as one user and have to enter a password to log in again (yes, I know fast user switching bypasses this, but I still have to do it this way on occasion), the computer defaults to the US Qwerty keyboard layout. Is there a way to shut that off completely? It's driving me nuts because my keyboard doesn't show me the Qwerty layout and I have to rack my brain trying to remember where the letters are.
    2. On my G4 PowerMac (running 10.4) I have to toggle between Dvorak and Qwerty (my wife uses one, I use the other, and I don't want to set us up on different accounts). The problem is, the system toggles it back and forth all the time without warning--going to form fields, switching between apps, etc. There was a time (back with Panther for one of the updates), when a layout would stick the whole time until I switched it to the other, but it hasn't done it for a while. Is this a bug, or is there a workaround?
    Thanks.

    Here is a solution to problem 1, i had this problem a couple of months ago and eventually managed to figure it out.
    1. Go to: System preferences->accounts->login options
    2. Turn on: Show input menu in login window
    u can now use whatever language for login
    if u want it as default
    1. log out
    2. change language
    3. sign in
    4. Turn off the thing u just turned on
    it is now the default
    it seems to be another setting entirly
    As for the second issue i am currently having that issue and as yet have not found a solution.
    let me know if u figure something out for it

  • Final cut pro keyboard layout issue

    Hi everybody, and thanks for your help.
    I'm Italian, working in Italy, using fcp 6.0.5 with MacOSX 10.6.2 on a laptop and 10.5.x on a Mac Pro, and on both my computers I had big problems because fcp can't match with the Italian keyboard layout without some time-losing operations, that once completed, brought back fcp to normal use... lately (in the last week) this new layout I created (and saved, having to reload it EVERY time I launch fcp) started not working anymore, on both my computers, and keyboard shortcuts are almost not usable anymore. You can easily imagine what does this means in therms of time-losing and focus on the project.
    Now, I'm wondering how is this possible.
    I understand (but hardly accept) that Apple's top level editing software is not immediately compatible with a non-USA keyboard, but this new problem is really disappointing me. And because this is happening on TWO different computers in the same arc of time, well, this makes me think it's not depending from my operating.
    Does anyone else is having the same problem lately?
    I had some other reason to start thinking to move to another editing software (but more expensive), and this new issue is giving me a new reason to make the big step. But honestly, I would prefer remaining on fcp, I'm still (but I don't know for how long yet) proud to be an Apple user, even if when 15 years ago I had my Apple Macintosh maiden flight Apple was the most safe machine my hands could touch. Please, back to the future.
    Thank you,
    and forgive me for the last part of this email, maybe a little off-topic.
    But maybe better complaining at home that doing it outside.
    best regards,
    Stefano Bianchi.

    Hi Nick, and thanks.
    Unluckily I've already knew about this option, but no result. Some tools work, some others (like zoom in/out) not.
    Anyway, this would switch my system language from italian into english, not big problem, but not very professional from Apple, leaving a bug like this.
    If there were technical reasons for which international keyboard layouts are not released from Apple, and you (or someone else) knew about them, may you please explain me? Knowledge will help me to revaluate Apple's operate.
    Thanks a lot.
    Best regards.
    Stefano.

  • Refurbished MacBook keyboard layout issue

    I just went through Apple online stores of several different countries, but found none of those mentioned the keyboard layout for any refurbished macbook (Pro or Air). But all stuff in the list in different stores are the same. Does this mean from which countired you buy, it comes with the keyboard layout in that locale (i.e. say buy one in Spain, get Spanish layout whereas in UK, get UK layout)? Any guys have any idea on this? Thx in advance.

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Which keyboard layout are you looking for?
    Do you already have the MacBook Air listed in your profile?
    You can change the keyboard in the International Preference Pane in System Preferences.

  • Mobile Infrastructure Client on Windows CE (not Windows Mobile)

    Hi there,
    from my experience with SAP ME/MI, Windows CE was not officially supported but, it was possible to install a Creme on an WindowsCE-Device and afterwards install the MI-Client CAB-File for mobile devices.
    Now I have the problem, that with a Windows CE 5.0 Device the MI CAB-File doasn't extract on the device (MI Client 7.0 SP09) but reports an error and asks me to try again.
    Now I have two questins:
    1) Does anybody know, why the MI Client doesn't extract ?
    2) Which files/folders must be used when manually installing the MI client on the mobile device
    Thanks in advance
    P.S.: One or the other may ask, why we go for WindowsCE-Devices an not for Windows Mobile devices. The answer is: They are much much much  much faster than Windows Mobile Devices. I never before saw response-times within an MI-Application below 2 seconds

    Hi Carsten
       To answer your 2 questions and adding to what Karthik mentioned, here are my suggestions.
    1) Does anybody know, why the MI Client doesn't extract ?
    A. Probably you need to apply Microsft patch containing WCEload.exe file.  Please refer to the following MSFT sites for the solution
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839561
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q240435/
    2) Which files/folders must be used when manually installing the MI client on the mobile device?
    A. MI delivers an umcompressed version of its installation which can be manually copied on to PDA. Refer to this thread for details change default settings on MI client before installation on device From this version copy the MIServer.lnk file to \Windows\Startup folder and the entire contents contatined in cab folder to \MI folder which needs to be created on your device
    Hope this helps

  • Several issues only with executable, not in VI

    Hello, I'm developing a program to control a network analyzer from GPIB, store data, read that data into some matlab (math script) routines to determine pass/fail and plot a pattern, then save a screen-grab of that pass/fail/pattern. Everything works as I expect it to in the development environment, but when I build it into an executable and run it on the same development machine, weird things start to happen that I don't understand. I know from past that executables run faster than vi's so I have added time delays here and there where it seems to make sense for that particular bit of code, but even that has not helped.
    There are 3 main issues:
    1.) I populate a listbox from a folder with filenames that match a pattern. This works great. There is an event structure that waits for one of the files to be selected which then sends that file into a subvi that runs through the mathscript routines. Problem is in the executable, after this mathscript subvi executes, all the contents of the listbox disapear and I can't select another file to run through the mathscript code. stopping and starting the main app re-reads this in but it should be read in continuously because its in the main programs for-loop.
    2.) The mathscript routines were developed by someone else, they are in several nodes. The first two nodes work perfectly to generate 2 patterns, find beam peak, position, and beamwidth, but the next two, which are identical, don't seem to work in the executable. They should produce sidelobe levels, but don't.
    3.) The screen-grab bit doesn't work in the executable either, I found a vi from Alex T. (https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-19720) that automates a print screen event and then reads the clipboard to output image data which I then save as a jpg or png. This I had to add delays in to get the vi to work, but it still doesn't work in the executable.
    Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Even if its just the basics- I'm pretty much self-taught  and don't profess to know the best way or even the right way

  • PS2 Issue only with Neo and Neo2 not Neo 4 or later boards?

    I just wondered. Is the so called PS2 issue something that is only relevant to the Neo and Neo2 motherboards, or does it plague the MSI Neo4 Platinum/SLI, MSI Neo4 Diamond, MSI Neo4 Platinum as well?

    The issue where the use of a PS2 keyboard or mouse, for certain users, causes the system to freeze during post/boot, or sometimes cause random shutdown or startups. I've found several references to it on this forum. Thats why I want to know more before I decide on which motherboard to get.

  • EeePC- SDHC Issues only with Arch

    To begin with I have a Eeepc 701 4G and a A-DATA 16GB SDHC Turbo Eee PC Edition card. Whenever I try to install Arch via a usb drive, I get a error on boot that says something along the lines of I/O error with my SDHC card which is listed as /dev/sdc1. Normally I would think this is a defective card or its going bad but Arch is the only distro that gives me this error.  The error is just in the text that scrolls by but it also hangs when trying to partition the SDHC drive To test it out I have installed Mandriva 2008.1 Spring, Ubuntu 7.10/8.04/8.10, Ubuntu-eee, fluxflux-eee, and Forsight Mobile (I have been going crazy trying to find a distro I can live with/ even close to what Arch provides). Each one of them I set the / partition on the internal SSD and the /home partition on the SDHC card. Arch is the only one that gives a error with the SDHC card. I have ran extensive tests in Linux and also windows(sisoft sandra) but everything is fine with the card. The card is supported as it is a "Eee PC Edition Model" http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 6820211300  I have noticed tha some distros have problem with installing via a usb drive and using /home on a SDHC drive(only Fluxflux-eee) but it is normally a /etc/fstab issue not the I/0.
    Any ideals?
    THanks
    BTW: The card is only 2 weeks old.

    hi guys,
    I had a similar bug on my netbook with the Elantech touchpad. I have reported a bug to the maintainer of the Elantech driver and I get a patch that fix it.
    description of my bug:
    with two fingers above the touchpad, tap alterrnatively with each finger on the touchpad.
    - expected behaviour: the cursor does not move.
    - actual behaviour: the cursor jumps sometimes to the left or the right.
    this only happens when configuring the touchpad with synaptics (by defaults, mine is detected as a mouse)
    is your bug the same than mine ?
    are you using both the proto=exps option and synaptics ? (I still have the bug in this configuration)
    if it is the same bug, I have submited the patched kernel to AUR

  • Keyboard stops responding only with InDesign CS5.5

    Hi there. I have a problem with the keyboard - only when using InDesign CS5.5. Periodically (several times an hour) my keyboard will stop responding, that is to say that no shortcuts work at all, until I select Save (which I can't even do with Ctr+S). Ok it only takes a moment to save, but any idea why this could happen? The keyboard is a reputable brand and installed correctly, and all other applications work fine.

    Under Windows the keyboard can seem to go dead if you have an alternate input method installed and you hit the keyboard combination that triggers it (note that each applications retains the input method settings you assigned it).  After years of working with East Asian input systems it can still take me a while to figure this out: I type an e-mail in English, but when I return to ID the keystrokes disappear into the Chinese input system I'd forgotten I was using.
    Or perhaps your keyboard shortcuts got scrambled.  Does resetting preferences re-set these as well?
    Good luck,
    David
