Left side of keybook suddenly inactive

After loggin onto my computer, The left side of my keyboard stopped working so I couldn't log onto a web site. I restarted my computer and the problem persisted so that I couldn't even log on to my laptop. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

See if you can borrow an external keyboard and see if the problem is also on the external. If not, very likely there is a hardware problem with your built in keyboard. Often if several keys go out at once like that it is a problem having to do with a trace in the ribbon cable.
Good luck!

  • 3GS - Left side of screen suddenly not responsive

    Went to type in a message in email and realized I couldn't type in the number "1" or any characters on the left side of the screen. I then went back out to the main home page/icon pages and nothing on the left side of my screen responds.
    I purchased the phone through AT&T... can I assume I can walk into an Apple store and get it immediately replaced or is this wishful thinking. Will Apple say, "hey, we didn't sell it to you, ..."
    If not, I'm hoping this voids my AT&T contract. They didn't live up to their end by supplying me with functional equipment, why should I live up to my end of the contract?
    I have a 2 year old original iPhone that works perfectly still. They must have made the first batch better than this 3 generation.

    Well, AT&T does not handle the warranty work of the iPhone, Apple does, so if it needs to be replaced, Apple would be the one to do it. However, they are going to ask if you did the troubleshooting steps and will probably repeat them before they think about replacing your phone. If it is non-functional, they will decide on the replacement.
    This would not void your AT&T contract because you can get the phone replaced under warranty.
    If after you try the troubleshooting steps in the manual and the phone does not work, then call Apple Care, or if you have a local Apple Store, make an appointment at the Genius Bar and they will check out the phone. Troubleshooting is power off/on the phone, reset by holding down power off/on button and home button together until you see the Apple Logo, then release, ignore the red slider. The last step would be restore, either from a backup or as a new phone. Good luck.

    I am having MacBook Pro 3 yrs old and today while I was watching some movie on it suddenly it got power off and when I am trying to start it, it's power button is not working even the round button on external left side is not showing battery lights. But when I connect it to chrger then Charger only gives green light and even the external round button only shown 4 green lights (if charger connected). I don't know what to do now

    Sounds like you need a #1SMC Reset
    1. SMC reset
    >>Instructions to reset SMC
    Disconnect other non-Apple and external hardware except (if applicable) a mouse and keyboard until your finished repairing your machine.
    Problems solved: Fans blowing with no activity, machine is not booting, power button pressed and nothing happens, problems with indicators, Magsafe has wrong lights, battery is not charging, monitor and graphics issues etc.  If the battery is not charged (from like letting it sleep too long), let the Mac charge up awhile afterwards.
    Will not hurt the machine resetting if it's not broken.
    Other related hardware problems (optional):
    Check battery status: Hold option/alt key down while clicking on the battery icon in the menu bar, top right corner.
    Magsafe: Use the correct/matching power supply charger with your Mac, not a less powered one from another Mac.

  • On the left side of the display (MBP mid 2012) suddenly just stripes

    Hi!
    While I was working there suddenly appeared just vertical stripes (width about 3") on the left side of the display. I read a lot about display-problems with the MBP 2011 but not with the 2012... The crazy thing is when I took a screenshot to post here you couldn't see anything and the display just seems fine. Am I right thinking that the MBP is fine but the display is broken? Many thanks in advance for your thoughts, i'm desperate...
    Best wishes from Leipzig,
    Konstantin

    Konstantin,
    Sorry to hear about your display problem.
    " I took a screenshot to post here you couldn't see anything"
    Yes because a screenshot is taken directly from the output of the graphics chip.
    "Am I right thinking that the MBP is fine but the display is broken?"
    Yes, probably a delamination of the electronics that drives the vertical array.

  • Why did my bookmarks icon disappear and why is my bookmarks menu suddenly on the left side?

    Recently, Firefox updated to 23.0.1 (beta?) and once the browser was back up, I noticed that my bookmark icon (the star) was gone. I fixed the problem easily enough by setting it back up to where it originally was. Now my problem is that when I click the icon, my menu appears on the left side of the screen rather than the right as it did previously before the update. I downgraded to 22 and that didn't fix the problem. I would really like for the menu to be back on the right side, as the left is just frustrating me. I did not find any quick fix in the customization menu, or in safe mode. Can anyone help me out?

  • IE 8 cropping one pixel of left side of Flash

    I have a mysterious problem with Flash in Internet Explorer 8.
    We have previously been using the code listed below to center Flash campaign sites on the page. The page did not have any doctype declared (not pretty, I know), but it worked fine across all browsers...
    Then came IE 8. Suddenly 1px of the left side of the Flash/SWF is cropped of. I found that adding a doctype to the page fixed the problem, but that caused the content to no longer center vertically (in some browsers).
    If I replace the Flash with a simple JPG image, it displays correctly - so this is related to the #¤%@ SWF / IE8 combo.
    What are you guys using for centering your sites?
    Some observations
    Without doctype declared:
    Works in Firefox, and IE 7
    IE 8 and IE 8 in compatibility mode crops 1 pixel from left side
    With HTML 4.1 Transitional doctype:
    Is not vertically centered in IE 8 compatibility mode, IE 7 or Firefox
    IE 8 in compatibility crops 1 pixel from left side
    With XHTML 1.0 Transitional doctype:
    Works in IE 8
    Is not vertically centered in IE 8 compatibility mode, IE 7 or Firefox
    The code causing the problem
    (doctypes are left in commented out - just to show which ones I've tested with)

    Well, I found MY problem. It was a center tag. I had <center></center> around my Flash movie. So I put it in a table and now it's works. I looked over your code, but I don't see a center tag so maybe this won't help you. You did help me to fix mine so if I can help in any way let me know.
    Update: I noticed that you centered your data cell, maybe you could try centering the whole table.

  • Photosmart 7150 - Prints left side of page only

    I have used my Photosmart 7150 for years. All of a sudden, prior to printing I get a "PAPER SIZE MISMATCH" message telling me to pull the photo slider out. The photo slider is all the way out. I press the "RESUME" button, and only the left side of the page prints. Does anyone know how to correct this?

    There may be more than one issue here. The photo tray issue may contribute to both issues. Try this link:

  • My left side of my earphones decided not to work

    The left side of my apple earphones with remote and mic suddenly stopped working. I found out that if i tilt the wire at a certain angle, it works. If i dont, no sound comes out of it. I reside in Singapore

    Normally it just happends from wear and tear and it's happend to most of my headphones and then the headphone actually starts to fall apart so i have given up on buying them as they break so easily, instead I get them for free from
    http://www.rewards1.com/index.php?referrer_id=1426138
    here's the link if you are interested but you can first check the headphone socket to see if there is anything blocking the jack before buying/getting some new headphones.

  • Ipad 4 warm on left side and smelling like melting plastic

    I have an Ipad 4 with os 6.1.3 and after about a year it just suddenly started getting warm on the left side and smelling a bit like melting electronics. It happens on low screen brightness setting and even while I'm just browsing normal websites. I do have a cover on it, but it never used to get warm even with the cover.  I know it can get warm sometimes because of the CPU but I also KNOW its not supposed to smell. What could be causing this? Do I have to take it in?

    Stop using it
    Take it to Apple and ask them to check it out

  • The left side of my headphones became echo sound

    My headphones only works on the left side. I was using the iPod Classic, suddenly the left side of my headphones becomes echo-y. When I plugged the iPod on my computer and I used my headphones on my computer, it sounds fine. I know now my headphones are fine, but is my iPod ok?
    PS. I checked the equalizer and it was off.

    I'm having the same issue - earphones are fine and work properly in other devices but I do not have any sound coming through the right earphone

  • Error code 4M0T/4/40000002: Left side -0

    My computer screen suddenly wigged out while I was in the middle of surfing the web.  When I restarted it, everything seemed normal until it wigged out again a few seconds after rebooting.  Now When I start my computer the screen just remains gray.  I ran a system hardware test and it came back with the error code: 4M0T/4/40000002: Leftside - 0 .  Does anyone know what this means?

    Apple doesn't publish a translator for the codes but, based on what had been posted elsewhere, I'd say your left side cooling fan motor is failing or has failed. The video artifacts are probably due to overheating of the graphics chipset. If the gfx chipset fails, it means an expensive logic board replacement.
    To prevent any damage from excess heat, I recommend that you discontinue using the computer until you can get Apple to check it.
