My iPad 2 internal keyboard issue

I have noticed that my internal keyboard does not come out when I need to add some text recently on google earth. I wondered if there's some shortcut to force the iPad to xtend it's internal electronic keyboard n order to add some text? Thank you in advance.

Try restarting your iPad 2 by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until your see the Apple logo.

Macbook A1181 - Internal Keyboard issue

Hi,
I am a computer engineer with many years experience dealing with Computers, Laptops, Electronics, Windows and Mac.
I recently performed a strip down and clean of a Macbook A1181 for a customer as it was over heating and turning off.
All went well no problems or glitches and the Macbook is now running smooth with no over heat or shut down problems.
Unfortunately The keyboard seems to be giving a little trouble.
Firstly all software settings seem correct and all the keys function as should on a USB keyboard.
The internal keyboard (using the onscreen keyboard to debug) when I press the left hand shift key it presses both the shift + letter O
When I perss the letter O it thinks im pressing shift + O so all I get is capital O's can not get small o.
also (it is a spanish layout keyboard Ç,cedilla next to return key) when I press it it thinks im pressing it and the return
also when I press return it thinks im pressing Return + Ç
I have stripped down again made sure the ribbon cable is good and seated correctly, I have cleaned with Compressed air and light brush, as a last resort last night I have bathed the keyboard in 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (have done this on hundreds of laptop keyboards to clean tea, juice etc)
But again this morning the keyboard has the same problems?
Any ideas what could be the problem or what I can suggest to fix (a new keyboard and top deck is going to be expensive)
Thanks
Mark

Perhaps you may be able to locate an otherwise good keyboard assembly
from another previously-owned MacBook that has a different kind of failure.
One with a logic board or graphics failure could be a parts candidate, here.
I'd never heard of a need for nor anyone cleaning a known-good Apple keyboard
in a portable Mac, with alcohol. I know they'd cautioned against using it on the
case, the display (prior to hard glass cover) & other instances, in previous years...
However your efforts and attempts to restore function to an ailing MacBook
are commendable; the use of known good used parts may suffice in a repair.
Good luck & happy computing!

[xorg7] international keyboard issues [SOLVED]

note that i've read the wiki as well as most of the related posts here in the bbs
thereafter i edited :etc:x11:xorg;conf (sorry, keyboard is lost)
got xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse and xf86-video-nv installed, as well as xorg-fonts-100dpi;
since it didn't do what i wanted, killed x and launched xorgcfg -textmode to reconfigure it, with no difference; shoud i try hwd -x ,
xorg7 starts in this location, but have issues left :
- keyboard configuration is lost in x : capital, accentuated are lost; i'm on a international (105) fr keyboard
- mouse scroll is gone
- the shift keys do not allow me to select any string (but the middle mouse button does)
cannot find yet a related topic that would give me some hint on how to solve this;
can someone give a hand on this issue please ,

is this writen somewhere and i missed it ?
It seems to solve all of my keyboard & mouse issues.
Only is the cursor quite bizarre ; when i go left with the [left arrow],the cursor shows in every position it goes (dunno if one can visualize this!), and doesn't blink anymore. Anyway that's just a detail that I'l cope with later.
Thanks a lot Cerebral

IPad 2 Bluetooth keyboard issues

G'day all,
I have recently purchased an iPad 2 Wifi 64gb 3g.
I just updated the software version on it to the latest off I tunes this morning.
I purchased a keyboard dock for it (genuine apple) and it works fine but it is a bit of a pain to use because I need to continually take the protective cover off the ipad to use it.
I decided to purchase a Bluetooth keyboard instead (once again genuine apple unit), it connects fine and it works, but some of the functions don’t, eg: volume play/pause FF/RW. Pretty much all the function keys on the top row do nothing except the one that you push to bring up the keyboard on the screen.
I know these function keys do work because when you push them and the screen is off it brings the ipad back to life and shows you the lock screen.
The keyboard dock works perfectly and all ipad specific keys work no problems (top row).
My question is-
Is this a problem with my keyboard or is it a software issue with the ipad 2 and not accepting the genuine apple Bluetooth keyboard. Has anyone else had this problem?
Many thanks,
Mal.

I keep having to restart my iPad 2 so my keyboard can connect to it (square button and sleep button simultaneously). It's getting annoying...

SRVC - International Keyboard issue

Hi all
I've installed SRSS 5.1 with SRVC 1.2 on Solaris 10 x86. I have spanish keyboards. It's working fine, but when I put a special character in the password field or in the user name field, it will not be recognized. The VMware machine security registry shows the wrong user name.
Other informatión:
Java version : 1.6.0_22
VMWare View Version : 4.5
Thanks.

Sure.
AppleWorks was designed before OS X was probably conceived. AW was never designed to support the international key codings.

Please fix international keyboard issues (Win)

Hello
This was already reported before 1.1 (and before Br 2, and before Elements 3 :-)).
It's impossible to type "a/A with ogonek" (U+0104, U+0105) using standard windows keyboard "Polish (Programmers)" since it's using right Alt Gr + letter combination and Lightroom is incorrectly treating Alt Gr as Alt + Ctrl. Please fix this issue. Would be good idea also to add this to Adobe's code of practice or something similar, so I wouldn't have to report this every time you guys come up with new software.
Thank You
m.

International Keyboard issues in IChat Sharing

Hi,
I'm absolutely loving the new screen sharing built into Leopard, however we have encountered a bit of an issue.
My colleague is in the UK and has a British keyboard, whilst I'm in Belgium with a Belgian keyboard.
When I take control of his screen, as I type out letters they appear on his screen as though I'd typed the exactly placed character on his keyboard (rather than the actual letter).
As an example, if I typed 'A' on my keyboard it appears as 'Q' on his screen (since the 'Q' on a Belgian keyboard in the position of the 'A' on my keyboard).
I would have thought that it was more logical to map the keys correctly, although I can see why it's working the way it's working.
My question is, is there some setting somewhere, or something we can do to have the keyboard translation working correctly, otherwise it becomes extremely difficult for us to type correctly when controlling each others screens.
Thanks,
Dimitri

Click on the time displayed in the upper right of your screen>open date and time>open "country settings">select "input menu">select the keyboard layout your friend uses and vice-versa
Tick the box at the bottom so the flag gets displayed in your menu to remind you what keyboard setting is selected.

Ipad mini onboard keyboard issue

I have just updated my ipad mini with the new ios software and it has caused may ipads onboard keyboard to run very slowly does anyone no how to fix this issue

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

My iPad's internal keyboard keeps freezing and not responding.

I'll type on the screen keyboard and nothing happens for a few minutes. The whole device just freezes. After a while the keys will slowly and limpingly highlight and appear in whatever I'm trying to type. This occurs in all apps, from the device's lock screen, to pages, to email. The rest of the ipad works fine. I've tried wipeing, rebooting, etc., looked in manuals and online and I can't find anything. What's wrong?

That was remarkably easy. Can't believe I didn't see/think of that. Thanks!

Re: HP-Pavilion dm1 - Internal Keyboard issues

I have a HP Pavilion dm1 that I bought in late 2011 to be a travel pc and back up to a larger HP notebook (that btw that I have had no trouble with). Looking back I remember intermittant problems with the keyboard locking up but now that I have begun to try to use this as more of my main notebook I have encountered extremely frustating instances trlying to file out forms, type webaddressing in the browser - you name it anywhere you need to type it will lock up and not type anything. It takes shutting down the pc to gain access to the keyboard. But alas it will freeze again. I was using a logitech wireless mouse and I had the same experience with a micorsoft one also. I have read all the suggestions and trust me none of that has been the least bit of help. I have gone so far as do a complete install with factory settings. Using HP updates, Microsoft updates, with every version they have available nothing did the trick. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers for keyboard/mouse pad numerous times. At the moment I have just decided to not use an external mouse for any reason and so far for about four hours I have had no problems. I have tried opening and closing the browser and filling in any blanks i can see and so far everything is good. Now that being said, I have to see one more thing because when I use my iphone as a teathered modem I was having that problem with the keyboard freezing without the external mouse but I have to verify that in the next hour or two. I was wondering if the usb ports were causing a problem somehow. I can live with the lack of a wireless mouse but if I can't hook up my phone then this severly limits the usefullness of this miniPC. Before I lose my patience and destroy this thing in some horrible way on and impulsive act of frustration I want to try everything I can to make this workable. I am not real optimistic at this point but all the replys I read here were of no help. tg

In 2011 I bought my first DM1 it was 3125sd, used it for a year and worked like a charm. But had some bad luck, it got stolen. With the experience I had with that hardware, I decided to go for it again and buy another DM1, even tried to find the same model, but could not. So, I bought a newer model Pavillion DM1-4100ed mid 2012. Nice buying? Ahmmm... I'll let you decide by yourself.
So, here is what is happening and what I did, which didn't help at all, actually:
== What happens (and a little complaint):
Since when I bought it, just after 45 minutes, maybe 1 hour, of use, the keyboard and track pad freezes. The computer still runs perfectly, as most of the time I use external Bluetooth mouse and keyboard it didn’t bother me very much. It was a pain on trips. But I thought, HP as a known brand, would come up with a driver update or something to fix the issues, which never happened. Oh! And the fun part is, if I turn off the computer and immediately put it on again, the mouse and keyboard start to work on the login screen and stay working for another couple minutes.
== What I did:
Research forums everywhere, HP non HP. I tried everything it was saying on them.
-          Downloaded the HP application that searches for updates and keep the laptop up-to-date.
-          Remove drives, installed them again, much more than a couple of times.
-          Recovered many times windows 7, partition.
-          Re-install Win 7 from scratch another couple of times.
-          Bought Win 8 installed as upgrade, installed from scratch.
-          On windows 8 did all the same process I did on windows 7, removed drivers, re installed them, and for Windows 8.1, all again.
-          Installed, many linux flavors thinking it would be fixed with a generic driver, but nope, exactly the same behaviour from windows 7, 8 and 8.1.
So, you guys have any other ideas that can fix the issue? Or should I buy another laptop, with this one being just 1 and ½ year old? Actually, never worked properly.
I hope HP don’t take me wrong, but with this customer care I’m experiencing, I’m already figuring out the answer I’ll get, if ever get an answer.
Really hoping HP proves me wrong. =^)

IPad ios7 keyboard issues

After upgrading to ios7 my onscreen keyboard no longer works unless I un-connect my Bluetooth keyboard. In ios6 all I had to do was turn off the Bluetooth keyboard. Any ideas of a setting available to fix this?

Try going into settings, general and 'reset all settings'. that's solved some keyboard issues for folks. The downside, you will need to retweak your device.

Keyboard issue using Danish keyboard on Remote app for iOS.

Hi there.
I have noticed a quite annoying issue with the Remote Desktop for iOS when using foreign keyboards along with the Remote Desktop app.
The PC I'm remoting to from my iPad Air is a Windows 7 machine with an English Windows.
I have a danish keyboard layout installed, and have removed the English keyboard.
But.. Here comes the strange issue.
If I connect via Remote Desktop before I log into my PC (from my PC), the special characters like :;/*^%}{ ect. works just fine on my iPad.
If I then log on to my PC from the PC, the keyboard on the PC has been changed to english, even though there's no english keybord layout installed on my PC.
The special characters like the danish æøå has been changed out with ; and other wrong characters.
I then have to press CTRL+SHIFT on my PC to change it back to the danish layout.
But... If I do so on my PC and afterwards connect via the Remote Desktop app on my iPad Air, the keyboard is messed up on my iPad.
All the special characters like /:;)(^#%{ is placed wrong and give me a wrong character.
And that happens even if I change the keyboard on my iPad to English.
I really hope you will be able to fix this in a future update enabling full support for foreign keyboards between iOS7 and Windows 7.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Why are the characters mixed up in the session?
This issue can occur if the keyboard language has been switched on the remote PC while running a remote desktop session. In the case you would like to switch to a different keyboard language
follow these instructions.
Note: The remote PC selects the system language of the device running the remote desktop client and not the keyboard language. When switching the keyboard language on your device, you need
to manually switch the keyboard language on the remote PC.
1. Open settings on your device.
2. Tap General and then tap International.
3. Tap Language and select the language running on the remote PC.
4. Open the RD Client and connect to the remote PC and check if the Windows keyboard language matches the language that you selected.

Hp envy 14. Keyboard issues.

hey all,
ive been having an issue with my hp envy 14, with windows 7. This forum seemed the most relevent, as its a keyboard issue.
So whenever I turn my laptop on the keyboard is non-functional, so I turn it on with alt f5 I believe, this gets the key board functional, I can at this point type in my user password. Next as I type in my password, the capslock button has reversed itself, so when my keyboard shows caps on, caps is off and vice versa. Also, sometimes when im using my computer, it switches between recognizing caps is on or not.
I recently wiped the laptop, so I believe the issue to be internal.
This is frustrating to put it lightly, any help appreciated.

Hi @czrom
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are having trouble with your keyboard. I am happy to help. Please post the full product number abd operating system so I can find the correct support pages and drivers for you. Since you mentioned that you just wiped the machine it is likely that some of the drivers are missing.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
