My Apple Bluetooth keyboard has stopped working. The top row of keys works but the rest of the keys do not. I was carrying this in my computer bag without turning it off and that is when this started.
My apple bluetooth keyboard has stopped working. The top row of keys works and the iPad sees the bluetooth keyboard (the bluetooth icon is active) but the other keys do not work. For the past coupld of days I have carried my keyboard in my computerbag without turning it off and I am thinking I have done something to make the letter keys to stop working. Two days in a row I did turn on the music as I carried the computer bag into work so I know that some keys were being activated.
*UPDATE*
I have been able to use the Zoom function to zoom in and the keys on the top row no longer are in the non-responsive strip of area.

Since iOS 7.0.2 the apple Bluetooth keyboard has stopped working with my ipad2
The keyboard will no longer type in any app. It was getting whether caps lock was on/off confused on Friday and when I came to try to use it in lectures this morning it was completely not working. You can unpair and repair it to the ipad - type in the 4 digit code but when you try in any application - audionote/notes/mail it won't register any characters.
Hope this is enough to explain the problem, would really appreciate help ASAP
EmmaAs said in the first post, that's the first thing I did. But just in case tried again and it still just won't type letters/numbers... For everything except the 4 digit pairing code.
It's really strange, wondering if it's something to do with the update as someone's I know is doing a very similar thing.
Have also already changed the batteries once since getting it less than a month ago.
Thanks very much for your prompt reply tho autocorrect doing a science degree is a nightmare - chemokines = cheekiness lol

Both Mini (2.5/4 GB; 10.7.3 with all s/ware up to date) and Apple keyboard were bought new and at the same time (March 2012). Both paired up with no problems and worked together happily until 2 days ago.
Took keyboard to Apple reseller; worked fine with other machines there.
Returned with Mini; Mini and keyboard worked fine there too.
Came home; Mini and keyboard worked fine that afternoon and the following morning. Then they stopped again ...
Battery power=100%. Under Bluetooth prefs, all is well: paired, configured, connected.
Any ideas for a fix?I know this is going to sound simplistic, but bear with me.
Have you tried another pair of new batteries?
New like in an unopened package of Duracell batteries?
No commercials, just go as opposite as possible.
Hope this helps.

My Ipod is frozen. I've tried holding the power and the sleep button for 10 sec until the apple came on the screen. After this i've tried again to turn it off and to slide the unlock button, but it didn't work! Any Ideas????
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I did a factory reset on my late 2008 MacBook from a Snow Leopard disc. It installed fine, but as soon as I began to use the computer (safari) it froze. Couldn't even force quit. So I held down the power button to turn it off, and now it won't start up. It goes to the grey Apple screen and just sits there loud as can be. Help! Please keep in mind I've not done anything like this before and am going to need a little hand-holding. Thanks in advance.
Hi. Don't worry it's nothing serious. Insert the Instal Disc (Snow Leopard) and press the C button while turning on the computer. Once you see the desktop, go to Utility and choose Disk Utility. Select the Macintosh Partition on the left window pane and then click on Repair Disk and Repair Disk Permissions on the bottom right corner. Wait for both processes to finish. Click on the Apple icon (top left corner) and choose quit. Your computer should restart. See if it reboots normally. If not you can always reinstall the OS following the same steps. Good luck!

Only the top row of buttons works on the aluminun wireless keyboard
After returning my first wireless keyboard for not pairing with my iMac (which has all the right tech specs) I exchanged it for a new one. Initially, I was able to type letters and numbers only and many of the keys were not doing the task they were supposed to--the F12 keys ejected CDs and the eject button did nothing. I went to the Apple icon and downloaded all of the new updates that showed up, restarted my computer and then suddenly, the eject button worked! But, when I tried to type letters and numbers, nothing happened. My computer recognizes it and the top row of buttons works just fine.
the same has happend to me, it's a new wireless keyboard, and from the moment i paired them only the to row (f1,f2....eject) buttons are working.
what am i to do -
The E7 turns itself OFF (and then restarts) when i...
I proved it with complete accuracy.
It happens as long as the Network Mode is set to either 3G or Dual Mode, regardless the presence and strength of GSM signal.
Guess the trouble when you are driving and talking at the phone or using it as GPS device.
All of a sudden it turns itself off and reboot/restarts.
My E7 has Symbian Anna version 022.014
I was wondering if this *serious* problem has been recognized and fixed yet.
Can someone advise, please?
Thanks...Hi paolopiace,
Welcome to the Nokia forum.
I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing some issues with your E7. Try a hard reset by entering *#7370# into your phone. The default security code is 12345. Don't forget to make a back up of your data as well so that you can easily move everything back onto the device after the reset. You can make a back up with Nokia Suite
If this doesn't fix it, reinstall the current software with Nokia Suite. This should solve any errors in the phone. Belle will be rolling out soon as well, so if reinstalling Anna doesn't work you can try Belle instead, when it becomes available.
If, after trying all the above, the phone keeps switching itself off, I would definitely recommend bringing it to a local care centre where they can check it out and fix the issue for you. Your phone has a 24 month warranty period so this won't cost you anything.
You can find a local care centre by visiting your local Nokia web page and clicking on the Support tab. To find out the expiry date of your warranty, you can call your local care line. The only thing you need is your IMEI, which you can find by entering *#06# into your phone. The phone number for your local care line can also be found under the Support tab on your local Nokia web page.
Let me know how you get on!
Regards,
Iris9290

My computer won't fully load without turning back off completely. I also tried plugging it in to the charger but it still did not work. What does this mean? What should i do?
It looks as if there's a problem with your GPU. With a Retina machine, that would mean replacement of just about everything, except, perhaps, the flash storage drive.
Print you kernel panic when you go to your Apple Store appointment. I'm betting that it's a faulty GPU but they will be able to diagnose exactly where the problem lies.
Good luck,

Why are there so many problems with my 7" Verizon ellispes? It turns itself off or it won't come on at all! Now on a daily basis I must turn it back on by holding the power and volume buttons for 10 seconds at the same time to get it to come back on!
Let's find out what's going on with your device, tialala! When did this issue begin? Do you get an error message when it turns off? What other problems are you experiencing on your device?
Thanks,

When I press the home button my iPad won't go to he home page. It is as though the button isn't working properly?
Try this to calibrate your home button:
Open a stock iOS app (e.g., Clock). Once the app is open, press your iPad’s power button until the ‘slide to power off’ screen appears. From that screen, press and hold your Home button until iOS force quits the stock app you have open. You’re done! -
When I hover the curser over the box I'm writing this in, but before an characters have been typed, the symbol keeps showing up, on and off.
First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

I only have access to wifi, imessage started defaulting to green text message instead of blue imessage, thus they fail to send, I have turned off SMS and restarted the phone and the problem gotinues. Any suggestions?
iPads only support iMessage. You cannot send SMS with any of the native iOS functionality on it. There may be some apps in the app store that will, and certainly several messaging platforms (but read the descriptions carefully).

Apple Bluetooth Keyboard stopped working letters Q thru I.
My Apple Bluetooth Keyboard has stopped working on letters Q thru I. Any suggestions. Is it worth repair, or just buy new?
Sorry....I assumed that the KB was attached to a Mac
If you are near an Apple Store, you might take it in for testing.
From what you describe, I suspect the KB has failed.

Apple Bluetooth keyboard connection hangs
Hopefully someone has an answer for this: just in the past few days the connection to my Apple Bluetooth keyboard has started to hang.
These are the symptoms: I try to connect it through the Bluetooth Setup Assistant. I can get as far as inputing the pass key and hitting "return", then I get the "congratulations, your device is connected" message. Then immediately after that my connection is lost, and I can no longer input through the keyboard. It's still recognized through the Menu Bar and System Preferences, though.
Battery life is not a problem; System Preferences shows 3 bars. Replacing w/ fresh batteries hasn't helped, either. I've tried both the "enter" and "return" keys after entering the pass key; no dice. I've also tried deleting the device out of System Preferences starting fresh -- again, no results.
This keyboard has been fine all year; my wireless Mighty Mouse is working fine right now. Any ideas? -- Thanks in advanceI'VE BEEN HAVING SAME ISSUE FOR MONTHS
