My on screen keyboard is not showing up

This just started today and has caused me to reboot 6 times.
When I open mail, messages, maps or anything else that required me to type, I have no on screen keyboard. It's just a big blank space.
I reboot and then it is back for a few minutes. Then no keyboard again.
I have not installed 4.0.1 or anything strange.
Anyone have any suggestions?

I've been watching these boards for the iPhone for three years. This is a first.
I'd update to 4.0.1. If it doesn't work then, I'd take it back. It could be some preference not set right. Or it could be some hardware issue (but really, I can't see how that would cause this).
After that, I got nuthin'!

Suddenly - and for no reason that I can think of - my keyboard does not show on screen what I am typing. In other words it is gibberish.

This has just started today; yesterday, I downloaded a Zone Alarm update which was genuine and I have done a full scan for virus and malware – nothing!
I have tried the FN+NumLock idea which I saw on the internet but that doesn’t seem to work.
Any ideas?

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

HT4044 Part of my iPad(1st gen) screen display does not show,hence I can only see it partially.It was not dropped and neither is it broken. Any help as I was told it cant be fixed and i hv 2 replace with a new unit i.e. pay in full as warranty is over? HE

Part of my iPad screen display does not show. It was not dropped and neither is the screen broken. I was advised to see the local service provider for a diagnosis.
I had finally managed to find time to find a local service provider last week (not easy) and was disappointed to be advised of Apple's policy of one for one exchange i.e. they wont repair and said that i would have to replace with a whole unit. As my unit is no longer under warranty, it meant that I had to pay for the full price of a new unit!
I might as well have paid for the latest new unit but since my unit is only 2 years old at most, it would be a great waste of money.
How can this be? Does this mean apple's product is inferior and do not last since warranty is only for one year?
I sincerely hope there is a favourable solution otherwse my money is flushed down the drain.
HELP!!!

I was using my iPad last night, shut the power off and when I turned it on this morning 2/3 of the screen is not working. It looks like the pandalela picture. What is the answer to fix this; is this a screen issue or and electronics issues. Has anybody else experienced this?

Try stopping the SAPOSCOL NT service. Then, copy this folder (making a backup):
installdrive\usr\sap\prfclog to installdrive\usr\sap\prfclog_old
Then, clear out everything inside of installdrive\usr\sap\prfclog
Also, doens't hurt at this time to check the credential of the user running your SAPOSCOL, typically it should be the same as the user running your SAP instance.
Start SAPOSCOL and wait for the OS collector job to run. Give it 24 hours, come back and check.

Captivate 7 Screen Captures (scrolling) not showing when published in HTML5

I am using Captivate 7 and when I publish in HTML5 my screen captures (of the screen scrolling) do not show -- I get a blank screen for a couple of seconds --, even though they show when I preview for the Web in HTML5. They also show when I play them locally, but not from my server. Here is a link to a short video that has this problem -- click the fast forward button seven times after clicking play to get to a screen scroll. http://streaming.missioncollege.org/library/media/Tutorials/Title/index.html

I was using Internet Explorer 9. This morning I tried 10 & 11 with the same results. It works fine in Chrome and on a Mac with Safari. I do not have my iPad with me today, but I tried it this weekend and had the same problem, though I just updated my OS, so I will try again. If it does not work well on an iPad then I might as well output as FLASH. I will try my iPad again tonight and report back tomorrow. Thanks.

Rezound keyboard will not show up

I am having trouble figuring out why my keyboard will not show up in any window that requires me to type. I have looked in my settings and tried to restart the device with no luck. Please help, sending smileys is getting old. Thank You

I can understand why you are having trouble figuring that out, kdnbry84.
Have you tried to put the device in Safe Mode http://bit.ly/100XEDP to try it out?
Please keep me posted.

my iphone 4 screen has gone blank and its still on it vibrates when i put it on charge ive tried turning it off and the screen is still not showing anything please help

Hi Ellen,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone 4 has a dim or blank black screen but responds to some commands like enabling vibrate. I understand this may be a frustrating situation, but the troubleshooting suggestions in the article below will help you solve the issue.
Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If your screen is too dim, too bright, or you see only faint images
Try to adjust the brightness. If the screen doesn’t respond when you adjust the brightness, open several apps to make sure it’s not an issue with only one app.
If you have a screen protector, try removing it. Try removing your case if it includes a screen protector.
If you see the issue in multiple apps, restart your device.
If restarting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
Take care,
-Jason

Satellite C855D-135 - Corrupt BIOS, black screen, keyboard is not working

Hello everybody.
I have been having some issues with my Toshiba Satellite C855D-135 laptop. I had to change my internal hard drive, so I decided to install windows 7 on it (I used to have windows 8 but don't have the CD and I couldn't find the licence key sticker.),
So I went into the BIOS to switch it from UEFI to CSM, but something went wrong at that point and it seems to have corrupted the bios.
I think I have bricked it, but some things still work.
When I turn it on:
- the screen stays black (Yes, I have tried it on a different screen)
- the keyboard doesn't seem to be working (the leds don't turn on when I press caps lock)
- the fan works fine
- cd reader works fine
- When I plug in a USB stick, it flashes quickly once, so that seems to be working
- When I removed the memory bar, the computer did it's series of beeps
- I tried removing the battery, unplugging it and pressing on the power button for ages. (no luck)
- I have tried removing the CMOS battery to revert the bios to default. (no luck)
- I tried flashing the bios on a USB stick, until I realised the keyboard wasn't working and that it was all in vain.
- I tried putting the bios update on a CD, and it spun for a while, but nothing happened in the end. I tried putting these files on the CD:
- IBIOS.BAT
- C8610.FD (in the Win8 folder)
- C610.FD (in the WIN7 folder)
- I tried renaming C8610.FD to BIOS.FD
I have run out of ideas now.
Could anybody help me? Pretty please?
I hope it's not the motherboard that's broken, coz I really don't have enough money to send it off to be repaired.

The whole story sounds very strange to me I never heard about that fact that changing the boot mode from UEFI to CSM would affect the BIOS.
In my opinion there is some serious hardware problem. As you already assumed, it could be probably a motherboard fault.
I would recommend you to ask some technicians for some hardware diagnostic tests to perform an motherboard check in order to be 100% sure about the fault.
If you dont have enough money and the motherboard is really affected you could try to get some 2nd hand part

Input Screen fields are not showing the description

Hi
I have copied a program, generated using SQVI, to a Zprogram, say Ztest, and when I execute this Ztest the description of the fields on selection screen are coming as SP$00001, SP$00002 and so on.
however if I execute the query made using SQVI the field description are the field descriptions.
Can anybody help me resolve this, to show the field description in ZTest also.
Thanks in advance!

Hi khanna_rahul,
since quite a long time (10+ years) I do not use SE38 any longer - partly to avoid such errors as you are confronting now. In SE80 object tree, right mouse click on report, copy, in the popup mark everything, give new name(s) and that was it.
For you it will be easier to just copy and paste between two sessions of report texts. Don't worry, system will ask for transport.
Regards,
Clemens
N.B.: who does have much time and is willing to use it for useless tasks, will stick to SE38 until SAP removes it.

SAP Login screen - keyboard shortcut not working

Part way through an SSO rollout (Imprivata Onesign) and have come across one terminal server that is not behaving as normal ie keyboard shortcut control+i does not position the cursor in the Client field on the SAP login screen. Instead it is treating the key combination as a standard Tab.
Has anyone come across this before or can anyone suggest how to diagnose.
I have checked the registry and there doesn't appear to be any custom keyboard shortcuts defined.
OS = Win 2003 Enterprise SP2
SAPGUI = SAP Gui 7.10 Patch 14
Many thanks in advance
Paul

See my response here for future reference. Much easier solution:
Re: iOS 6 + keyboard shortcuts

Keyboard will not show for typing passwords. i.e. to download/update an app.

Please help with the above. Thanks!!

Assuming that you were not using a Bluetooth keyboard with the iPad - or if you were, and you have turned the keyboard off and turned Bluetooth off on the iPad - try rebooting and see if the keyboard will appear.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Touchsmart 520-1050, keyboard-displays not showing

Upon turning on my 3-day-old computer this morning and doing simple tasks like adjusting the volume of music from my keyboard, I noticed that the box indicating the volume no longer pops up.
In the past (again, 3 days old), a box would come up with a volume bar, showing me which number between 0-whatever the volume was set to. Now when I adjust the volume the same way, that doesn't happen.
I also cannot adjust the screen brightness from my keyboard either.
The CAPS lock and NUM lock indicator also fails to display.

No one has any thoughts on doing this

Using local/testing server with cs5 inserting images look fine in the split screen but do not show

Hi
If I open example: header.php and insert any photo jpeg/.html ecs i can see the images in the split screen but not in the browser if i save then refresh. I am able to make any change to the code ecs. and they are reflected just fine. I have tried this with my fireworks images .html and when that did not work i tried a strait jpeg off the desktop. This all did not work. I have deleted the local server then step by step created a new one via devnet instruction. This did not work! everything looks fine i even tried in 3 sep browsers with 0 luck....There is no remote server connected at this time because i am making a child theme for my current site. After all changes are done we will the ftp the word press files to site and change.
Ps i even started over from scratch with 0 positive affects....

After a lot of pain!!!!!!! the issue is fixed lol After 3 weeks I have overlooked the obvious !!! so the simple fix was the path of the image. Yes i feel stupid 10 years in lol....
Apparently dreamweaver cs 5 will not use the full path when inserting images into the page example: If you drag the image out of your assets folder or however you do it, DW will give you a path like this <img src="images/glass.jpg" width="800" height="729"> This is not the full path and when your pist!!! you cant see things like that ;( so the image path should look like this:
<img src="wp-content/themes/adszoom/images/glass.jpg" width="800" height="729">
also in the html files example of bad then good!

My iPod touch is stuck on the apple screen, and will not show on the computer.

I went to pick it up and try to turn it on, and it wouldnt work. I called and they told me to press power and home buttons and hold. It worked, now it is stuck on the home screen.

Is it stuck on the Home screen (Screen showing all your apps) or on the screen that shows an apple?
Try here:
iPhone and iPod touch: Frozen and unresponsive

My on screen keyboard is not showing up
