Keyboard Malfun..ktion. Why kan't I type the letter after b?

I've been frustrated by my inability to type both the letter after b, as well as the upper-case "e." These are the ONLY two letters I (annot type.
+I didn't spill anything on my keyboard,+ and it strikes me as espe(ially weird that I (an type "e," but as soon as I press the shift key, my Ma(Book doesn't re(ognize it.
When it first started, I'd type the C (A-HA!) button about 20 times before it would display one. Then I lost it completely. Now it's back. Apparently the CCCcccCCCccc button comes and goes, but the capital e never works. I have overcome this by finding a word that has both capital e and c in it, and pasting it into my document, and then deleting the extra letters... this is so stupid.

Have you called Apple? Or possibly taken the computer in to an Apple store? It sounds as though it needs service.

  • My keyboard on my 4s will not type the letter p or 0 in vertical/portrait position and the whole bottom row in horizontal sometimes does not respond

    My keyboard does not type the letter p or the number 0 in portrait/vertical position. And when I use the horizontal keyboard from time to time all functions on the bottom row do not work at all like the space bar, return key, etc. It has become a bit of a nuisance. I have just installed the 7.1 update but was having this issue prior. I have also had the glass replaced (not by apple) about a year ago with no issues until now. Is there anything I can do? I have not reset all settings. But I really don't want to have to do that because I doubt it will help.

    UPDATE
    Called HTC... No help, suggested factory reset ,which I didn't mind as I have no data on the phone yet, after reset must call *228 to reprogram. Did not work. Next suggestion, download a keyboard app, the free ones are crap. Why should I have to pay extra to make the device usable? I thought a working keyboard was apart of the initial $200.
    On my own I tried *228 option 2 which is some sort of roaming update. That did not work either.

  • Help! My Bluetooth keyboard doesn't match! What I mean is that when I type the letter "h" on the keyboard it shows up as if I typed a different letter.  None of the letters match!  What is going on?

    Help!  My Bluetooth keyboard is not writing what I type!  What I mean is that when I type the letter "h" for example, it shows up as a different letter. None of the keys match! What is going on?

    The missing Albums may be ones where the Artist is not listed as also being the Album Artist in the tag.  Try going to Settings>Music and turn Group By Album Artist to Off.  See if the missing albums now show in the Artist view.  If so, you can either leave the setting this way, or if you prefer it to be on, go to iTunes on your computer and put the correct name in the Album Artist field of the tag (on the Info tab of the tab) for the albums in question and sync your phone.

  • I HAVE A MAC G5 WITH V10.4 TIGER OS, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LETTER "N" ONLY WHEN I USE CAPS AND SHIFT KEYS DOSE IT TYPE THE LETTER "N"SE

    HAVE A MAC G5 WITH V10.4 TIGER OS, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LETTER "N" ONLY WHEN I USE CAPS AND SHIFT KEYS DOSE IT TYPE THE LETTER "N". I HAVE CONNECTED A NEW KEYBOARD BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

    You might look at "Keyboard Shortcuts" in the Keyboard and Mouse preference pane and see if somehow the lower case n has been inadvertently assigned to something.
    Probably the best solution would be to click the "Restore Defaults" button.

  • Cannot type the letter "t" when phone is in portrait orientation. will only work when phone is in landscape.

    cannot type the letter "t" when phone is in portrait orientation. will only work when phone is in landscape.This causes some problems as some apps do not change orientation so when the "t" is needed to be entered it cannot be carried out

  • Can't Type the Letter "S" in the Header??

    After upgrading from P6 V7 to P6 V8.1, changes made under Page Set up in the header do not remain once the OK button is clicked. It reverts back to the previous header. Also, the letter "S" will not be displayed when typed in the header. Oracle said "This issue is being reported as a bug, but does not have a workaround. It seems to be related to the hot key shortcut to the checkbox for "show section divider lines"." Does anyone have a work around?

    At this time this a documented bug within the software please see Bug 12723553: CAN'T SAVE CHANGES MADE TO HEADER/FOOTER OR TYPE THE LETTER S
    POTENTIAL WORKAROUNDS:
    1. Copy the downloaded dhtmled.ocx and triedit.dll files to this directory
    (It will prompt you to accept the copy)
    2. Register under admin privileges (Start, Type Command, then right click on
    Command Prompt and Run as Administrator)
    "regsvr32 c:\program files (x86)\Oracle\Primavera P6\P6
    Professional\dhtmled.ocx"

  • Every time I type the letter t in an email, Firefox takes me to a blank search page

    Hello Noleska.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.

  • Why can't I type the "5"/ "T" key on my iPod touch?

    So about 2 hours ago my iPod Touch, 3rd generation just randomly started freaking out. The screen would shake a lot when I tried to drag my finger on it and it randomly started doing stuff like opening apps that I hadn't clicked on and magnifying the screen. I tried to restart it but that didn't do any good so I plugged it into my MacBook to restore the factory settings via iTunes. Everything went perfectly until just about 20 minutes ago I tried doing some typing in the memo app and discovered that I could not type the "5" / "T" key on the keyboard. What in the world is going on?! Any ideas?

    Elitegate. The Whatsapp app is only compatible with iPhones. It will not install on any other device.
    However, there are other texting apps like TexpPlus, Viber, Text Free that are compatible with later model iPods.

  • Why can't I type the name of a group in mail 7

    I can no longer type the name of the group and Mail app 7 will auto fill all the addresses in the group. In order to group mail, I have to select addresses in the toolbar, click on the group, then command click on the individuals in the group and then click To:
    Distribution list doesn't seem to work anymore.

    I had a similar question but mine was more that I used to click on my group in the address book to select it and drag to the Bcc / cc field and now I can't seem to - but you helped by showing me an alternative - I am using OSX 10.9

  • Can't type the letter that comes a_ter the letter e....says active directory domain service is unavailable

    can't type the 6th letter o_ the alphabet......says active domain service is unavailable

    Did you try close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • HT3529 i deleted a contact in my phone. when i type the letter of the name in the message bar to who you want to message there name still pops up. if it is deleted why is it still there?

    hi, i deleted a contact in my iphone but when i go to write a text to someone there name pops up in the message bar. but when i go to contacts its not there. why is it still in my phone even tho i deleted it?

    hi JBeck022,
    You may have some messages with that number in the messages section if you do, please delete them.
    Another option is, you restored your iPhone with a backup that still had the contact info of that person

  • HT4623 I down loaded ios 7 to my wifes ipad 2  but because of the streamlined look my wife can bearly see the letters and numbers on the key board because of an eyesight problem  She had no problem with the old keyboard.  Is there a way to make the letter

      I downloaded ios 7 to my wifes ipad 2.  The only problem was, with the new system the letters and numbers on the keyboard became so streamlined that my wife had trouble seeing them because of a eye problem.  Is there a way to get the old keyboard back and if not how do you uninstall ios 7?

    I had thought this situation was solved but it just got worse. In addition to being without service for several days I am now being charged  a cancellation fee for a broadband service that BT disconnected in error. BT Vision was also terminated by BT but the set up charges are still in place. Does anyone know who the relevant Ombudsman is? I called BT from America on Friday - for an hour - while someone called Aruj sorted out why there is an order 'in progress' that I didn't initiate; why I have fees relating to a problem created by BT and why there are references to a house move that didn't take place and a BT Vision service I no longer have but didn't cancel myself. He assured me it would be rectified and my bill would be reduced by 139 pounds and we would get confirmation of this later that day. I asked him what chance there was that this would not actually happen - he said no chance at all; my new bill would be 23.50.
    There was no text message. An online chat person today told me there had been a fee reduction request which had been declined and there was nothing else he could help me with as he dealt only with broadband. But he would get BT Vision to email me. They always seem so helpful.............
    I'm sure I'm listed somewhere as 'a problem', there's no other explanation for why I get the runaround
