Keyboard / Mouse Issues MacBook Pro

After charging my MacBook Pro overnight, I turned my computer on to find that it no longer reads the keyboard and trackpad. Any help?

Try three things....
I know keyboard won't work but try resetting PRAM....

Second, Restart your computer while inserting your install disk #1, and holding down the "D" key. Run the Apple Hardware Test.
If no errors show up. Restart with the CD in and hold down the "C" key. When the installation prompt starts and the Toolbar shows up on the top of your window, click I think on Tools-Disk Utility, and Reapir Permissions, on your disk. Highlight Macintosh HD on the left, and Repair Permssions below.
Lastly, if all else fails, call Apple Care.

Try:

Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Resetting network settings: Setting>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

How do I get the keyboard on my macbook pro to light up?

how do i get the keyboard on my macbook pro to light up?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
What MacBook Pro have you got? Only Unibody MacBooks Pro (Late 2008 and newer) have a backlit keyboard. If you have one of these MacBooks Pro, you can set up its illumination in System Preferences > Keyboard. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4882

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You will have to return the Mac and order one with a Portuguese keyboard, if you bought it less than 14 days ago.
If not, you will have to buy a new Mac (that's because some keys may not fit onto your MacBook Pro keyboard) or just set up OS X with a Portuguese keyboard but with US keys

X100e keyboard/mouse issues

Hi Folks,
I've been having trouble with my recently purchased x100e (running Windows 7), and I'm hoping that someone may be able to help me out. I've been looking through the forums and on the web for solutions, but no luck.
Starting a few days ago, I notice that whenever I press a button on the keyboard, a dialog box pops up to ask me if I want to display the Trackpoint Guide. This prevents me from typing anything longer than one keystroke, because the dialog box just comes back when I hit the next key regardless of pressing "Yes" or "No." Additionally, whenever I press a key, the cursor changes from the standard pointer to the scroll icon that would display if I was pressing the middle mouse/scroll button above the trackpad. Furthermore, the middle mouse/scroll button above the trackpad no longer works when pressed.
I have noticed that it is possible to disable the Trackpoint dialog box from coming up by clicking the "do not display this message" option, but the cursor issue persists no matter what. The laptop is hardly a month old. I use antivirus, anti-spyware, etc. I have tried updating the mouse/trackpoint driver and also rolling it back to the originally installed driver, but neither step seems to resolve the issue. I thought that perhaps I had inadvertently changed some of the mouse settings, so I did a factory reset on the machine. Unfortunately, that didn't solve the issue either. I did an extra factory reset just to make sure. I've run anti-virus and anti-malware scans to see if anything would show up, but nothing does. This one really has me perplexed. If there's anyone out there who could offer any advice, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hi onlylive2x,
Welcome to Lenovo Forums.
Could you try doing a factory reset without installing any antivirus or antispyware and see if there are any keyboard/mouse issues? This could be some software which is causing a conflict with the mouse drivers.

Spilled water over the keyboard of my MacBook Pro.

Spilled water over the keyboard of my MacBook Pro. 13 inches. Used paper and dried it straigt away, it was working fine. Now, a few days later, my left shift-button, the ctrl-button and right-arrow button do not work. What can I do to try to fix this?
My Mac is working completely fine. It was maybe 0,5 dl of water...

Nothing that you can do to fix it. Best to just leave it off and take it to your local Apple Store or AASP. No telling how much it's going to cost you - there are liquid sensors all around your computer so the service centers will be able to tell that it's a case of liquid damage, even if there is no corrosion yet.
You just have to be careful with any kind of liquids around notebooks - liquids and electricity just don't play well together.
Sorry,
Clinton

Is it possible to build a German keyboard in an MacBook Pro in US?

Hey Guys,
I'm thinking about buying a MacBook Pro. I have lots of german friends and they use a different keyboard.
I looked at the online store but I could not find, how to build a german keyboard in the MacBook and I really would like to have a german keyboard in my MacBook Pro.
Do you know something about it or is it possible?
Thanks for helping
An4stasia

What you can do is set the keys to German layout in preferences and then get something like this

Final Cut Keyboard Template for MacBook Pro

I saw a rubberized FCP keyboard template that overlays the keyboard on a MacBook Pro, but can't remember where I saw it... Has anyone seen one? I might have seen it in a UK publication...
Thanks,

Change keyboard on a MacBook Pro

Hi there
I currently live in Hong Kong and I'm thinking about buying a MacBook Pro here.
Someday I will move back to Switzerland and I was wondering if it's possible to change the keyboard on a MacBook Pro so that I can write german umlaute with it and how much that would cost me.
I know that it's possible to configure the keyboard so that I can type the umlaute with a key-combination, but it would be nicer to just have the actual key on my keyboard.
Thanks for your help.

The keyboard and trackpad are fused to the topcase and cannot be replaced individually. Hence, it would require entire replacement of the part, an expensive proposition that needs to be carried out by trained and authorized technicians with the proper tools and knowhow.
If the key shapes for both languages are the same and the difference just lies in a few keycaps, you may be able to fudge the "replacement" merely by popping put the caps that change and replacing them. See here as a possible source: http://www.replacementlaptopkeys.com/
From the OS and program point of view, you just need to select a different keyboard in the Input Methods found in System Preferences / Language & Text.

Logitech diNovo Mac USB Wireless Keyboard - Wake Closed Macbook Pro?

My brother wants to use his Macbook Pro 15" 2008 (previous body style) in a "dock" setup with an external monitor. This keyboard uses a small wireless USB dongle to connect to the keyboard. With Macbook pro cover closed, I cannot get the DiNovo's spacebar to wake the Macbook pro. Is USB-Wake support on the Macbook Pro?

In theory, if you open System Preferences/Bluetooth and select the device then hit 'Advanced' you should be able to check 'Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer' and it should work. I'm a little suspicious about the USB dongle side of the equation though ...

I am traveling and cannot connect my bluetooth keyboard to my MacBook Pro where I am. It was working fine when I left home. What can I do to fix the problem?

If you can get them paired again try making them "favorites" from the Bluetooth system preferences.
Try smc and pram reset too. May gave to do this before you can get them paired.

Late 2013 13" MBPr unresponsive (not keyboard/mouse issue)

Hi all,
I am running a 2013 13"MBPr with 1TB SSD, 16GB RAM and 2.8i7.
I have updated the firmware to fix the keyboard/mouse issue.
My problem is the computer hanging or unresposive when using other programs.
I thought this was a problem with Chrome which I use for browsing as I had a simialr issue with my 2010 MBP 15".
But yesterday it hung in Mail.
Apple Diagnostics was fine.
I have tried uninstall and reinstall of Chrome. I run a few extensions but have reduced these as much as possible. Only use Adblocker, 1password, Papers and Quidco apps.
I will try to reinstall mavericks and see how it goes. Hopefully I get some luck.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks

Thanks Clinton,
Well It came with mavericks and I will reinstall tonight to see if it helps.
Called apple today and they suggested a reinstall.
In the mean time I have put a refund order thorugh for this computer and reorded it. So I guess this will rule out hardware issues. The only issue is the same spec computer is only expecting delviery between 9th to 16th December!!!
So may be without a computer for a while.
Happy to read that you suggest only perfection as this is what I expect.
Cheers

Delay issue with mighty mouse and macbook pro. help?

Connected but delayed in movement. I am connected to an HD tv via HDMI and only a delay issue on the tv monitor. The mouse responds as normal on the laptop screen if I have it open, but on the TV it is delayed. Any clue as to what might be wrong? I am running HDMI to a converter for the mini display port and have seen it work many times with no delay. I have changed the batteries and reconnected/restarted the computer and the mouse numerous times.

Hey there, I'm on the forums because I can't get my wireless mouse to connect to my new MacBook Pro either (just got it yesterday). Bluetooth Device Manager seems to "see" it when it searches, but insists it can't connect to it, saying either "device not found" (which is ridiculous, since it's right up there in the list) or "cannot find the necessary services." Yet I cannot find anything definitive on the tubes to say that the two don't work together. Anyone else have any ideas for us??
I should mention I changed the batteries b/c at first I thought that's all it was. When it didn't work I brought it to a 2009 MacBook Pro, and that one connected no problem ::shaking head::

Magic mouse and Macbook Pro Sleeping issues

Since I upgraded to Lion a few months ago, I've noticed that occasionally my Macbook Pro (early 2010) won't sleep when I close the lid. I think I've narrowed down (at least one of) the cause(s): if I turn off my bluetooth Magic Mouse after the lid is closed, the computer won't sleep. In fact, it will run hotter and hotter with the lid closed and, when I open the computer, it's non responsive, necessitating a hard reboot. I've checked the pmset log and I see the EHC2 (bluetooth mouse) waking the computer immediately after the clamshell sleep. Has anyone else seen this problem (I've seen similar things on the foroum, but not quite the same) and does anyone know what to do about it?

Repair disk permissions. Open this app:
Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.app
Ensure your current volume is selected in the left hand column. Click 'First Aid' (if its not already selected), then 'Repair Disk Permissions' at the bottom.
Ignore the various warnings that come up in the 'Details' window, so long you get a message at the end saying 'Permissions repair complete'.
