Keyboard layout switching does not work if I connect a second keyboard

When I connect an external keyboard (a very ordinary Dell keyboard, no extra keys or something unusual) to my laptop, XFCE keyboard layout switcher disappears from a the and keyboard shortkut meant to switch also does not work. Rebooting with the keyboard initially attached does not help. Any ideas how to fix?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Keyboard layout switching does not work properly when set to switch per document

Hello,
I have two input languages (U.S. / Bulgarian - Phonetic) and I am having problems when using the "Automatically switch to a document's input source" option (available in the Input Sources prefs pane).
The problem is that when I switch applications (using CMD + Tab) the input is not changed to the correct one, until an input field in the new application is selected. If I don't manually select an input field, the language will remain whatever it was with the previous application I used. As a consequence, none of my shortcuts work, as they are defined in the U.S language, and not in Bulgarian.

Hi,
does this problem appear immediately after buying the machine? Maybe its a good idea to recover the machine, perhaps it could be a software issue.
On the other side it sounds a little bit like a hardware related problem so if the recovery doesnt brought you joy then you should contact a local service partner for help.

Location switching does not work on Vista

Hi, my location switching does not work. I have reinstalled my Access Connection several time but still does not work. I have several profiles and I need to switch manually depending on my location profile. My Access Connetion however seem to know the right profile (dot next to the profile indicate it picked up the right wireless signal) but never connect to the profile
Is there any Vista feature that is controlling the access as well? Do I need to disable? I remember the older version of Access Connection will ask to disaable some windows services when using Access connection.
My Config is
- R61
- Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AG. File Version 11.1.1.16
- OS Vista 32 Business - with up to date patches
- Access Connection 4.42 for Vista Build 7RCN38WW
Thank you in advance for pointers

Keyboard volume control does not work

I have an iMac G5, running OS 10.5.8, and a new Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad. My keyboard volume control does not work. Any have ideas as to why ? (I have a similar set-up at work with no volume problems.)

Try system prefs/keyboard/keyboard/ and uncheck Use all F1, F2 etc as standard function keys.
Other wise the volume and brightness controls will only work if you hold down the function key first (fn)

Was it just this one time? Could be that you, or your mom, were experiencing network problems. Try again at a later time.

HT2638 since updating iPhoto it has ceased to open. i have tried to Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard but it does not work. iPhoto still does not open

Since updating iPhoto it has ceased to open. I have tried to Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard which is the suggested solution to then open a suggested solution to rebuild the library, but it does not work. iPhoto still does not open. can someone please help?
thank you

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache folder(s):
Home/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
and, if there is one, the
Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

Aluminum keyboard eject button does not work on Windows XP

I'm wondering if anyone else has the same issue:
the eject disk button on my new aluminum keyboard does not work in Windows XP (Boot Camp).
As I have a Mac Pro, there is no way of manually opening and closing the tray-loading Superdrive.
I can open the drive if I right-click "My Computer>DVD drive>Eject" but there is no way of closing it back. I am obviously not a Windows XP expert, are there ways of mapping the eject function to any key?

Actually, how does Software Update figure out what apps you have available for update?
I always thought that Software Update looks at your /Library/Receipts to check what Apple pkgs you have for update, so I assumed that any Apple-related Pkg would be updated. I may be totally wrong on this, correct me if that is so...but thanks for the info.

Ipad app icons shaking but won't delete, home button does not work, power off switch does not work

I just got a new ipad air and have started to add apps to it. I have added a couple of free apps which I have also deleted (moved to icloud). I have also a couple of apps (free & purchased) which I have on it now.
Now my problem:
I tried to remove another free app. I press and hold the icon. All app icons shake and display the 'x' for removing, but the 'x' for does not work on any of the icons. Also, after this, the home button does not work as the icons keep shaking even while I am pressing the button. And the power off switch on the side of the device does not work either. If I close the smart cover and reopen it shows the home display and all the icons still shaking (instead of showing the passcode sign-in display). Fortunately (well, fortune in the misfortune) if I press the home button and off switch a couple times each and close the smart cover and wait, the device awakes normally. Well, normally until I try to remove any app.
So what do I need to do to fix this?
Thanx
Brian

Glad it worked. Anytime your iPad acts up, the reboot/reset is a common first thing to try. And it clears up many issues and glitches.

E7 lock key switch does not work

Lock key stopped working during some update today. I installed the phone from scratch and installed anna over previous os.
At sometime on the proces lock key stopped working. It does not work neither as led torch switch.
I have found no place to change this key behaviour.

Hey Mann,
In order to reslove your issue I would suggest performing a soft reset (*#7780# soft reset(security code needed; 12345 by default) and then re-install anna again, should this not work you should consider taking your device to your local Nokia Care Point
Thanks,

Firefox 5 does not work, it cannot connect to the net

I have tried two times to install Firefox 5, but it does not work, it cannot find the net at all. It tells (in Finnish) "Muodostetaan yhteyttä" ("Creating the connection" or something like that in English) and it stops to that point of installation when there should come your Mozilla page up. I am using Win 7 Ultimate and F-Secure Client Security. Luckily it is possilble to install back the version 4.0.1. At my laptop with Win XP there is no problem with version 5.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

After update, keyboard and trackpad does not work on MBA but wireless mouse works. I don't use a wireless keyboard. Stuck at login because need to enter pw. Anyone have this issue? Please help!

My Macbook Air (13", mid 2011) right after I did the Maverick OS update. My keyboard on Macbook Air is not working and it says "There isn't a keyboard connected" (Bluetooth Keyboard Setup). I do not use a wireless keyboard. Apparently my bluetooth works because my wireless mouse works. I am currently stuck at my login screen not being able to get in because I can't even enter my password. I am, however, able to login as guests and get to the Keyboard viewer to type things with my wireless mouse. I really need my keyboard to work to use for my job. I need help please!

I forgot to mention that my power button did work but everything else, keyboard and trackpad, didn't! Anyway, I shutdown my laptop, slept, and turned it back (in hopes that it might work instead of restarting it like before). Now my keyboard and trackpad works! Thank goodness! I was about to go to the Apple store upset too!

Keyboard and trackpad does not work.

Hey guys~
I have the late 2009 Unibody Macbook Pro and just yesterday both my keyboard and trackpad have stopped working. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and know of a solution. I made upgrades to the macbook (added more memory and a better HD) but that was back 9 months ago. Ive tried reseting the PRAM but I can't because the keyboard just doesnt work at all. I had to run out and buy a temporary external keyboard to plug into the USB. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

WRTU54G-TM T Mobile, works fine in wireless but does not work in WIRED connection

This is really weird. This router has worked fine for little over years. It has it's up's and downs but yesterday. It stopped working on the wired mode. I can see my computers connected on the DHCP list but it does not show internet. On my WIRED computers connected to the router, it says no internet access and cannot find gateway. it is setup as DHCP automatic like it has been for ages. I used the setup wizard with no success. IT SAYS NO ROUTER FOUND, please check connections.
The 4 ethernet lights are green and on completely on when nothing is connected to it at all on the wires.
Now wireless is completely fine and I can see the router and everything else but connecting WIRED just doesn't work. It can see my wired computers on the DHCP client list but anything wired has no internet or connection.
I tried even wiring it directly to my laptop and it does the same thing. But connecting wireless is perfectly fine and dandy.

All the 4 Ethernet port lights are lit up when nothing is connected to the router.
I think the router is not working properly.
Do you get a valid IP address like 192.168.1.xxx on your wired computer?
Try to ping the default gateway and see if you get replies from the router.
You are able to access the Internet on the wireless computer?
What IP address do you get on wired and wireless computer?
