Navigation keys stop working

I downloaded Digital Editions from the Adobe site. After 30 or 45 minutes the navigate keys stopped working. (all arrow keys, page up, page down) What must I do to restore operation? Windows XP with SP-3, Looks like Digital editions 1.7.2.1131

This is a known problem with ADE (and it's been ongoing for a while, and I've never been able to track it down). Unfortunately the only workaround is to quite ADE and to restart.

Creative Zen Vision 30GB - How to set IR Remote ON with Navigation keys not working in the play

I have Creative Zen Vision 30GB player. Within a month of buying, its navigation keys stopped working. I took it to the customer service of store where I bought it and they fixed it (their solution was to make firmware update, even though I do not understand how come that can fix this issue). Anyways after another 5 months of not so often use, the same problem returned (key pad stopped working and without it this player is useless). I sent it to Creative and they returned it saying that as it has few scratches on the edges, they believe it has been hit. I never dropped the player and these are normal scratches at the end if you do not use any skin (which I could never find for this player). Btw from my other friend's experiences, Creative always does like this, never considered warranty (so beware!). Anyways now the problem is that I have IR remote for Zen vision but it can not work till IR Remote setting in System->Player Settings is switched ON. And this can not be done as the navigation keys are not working. So please please suggest me some other way if anybody of you know to enable this setting through software. Otherwise this costly player is just a 30GB harddisk for me

Just wanted to mention - I bought the IR Remote thinking to make the player useful without navigation keys. Now I feel like I wasted more money instead of shifting to some other player by some other company with better customer service.

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function works

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function, render workspace function, export file are still operational. How can I fix it so I may complete my assignment?
Besides DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the only software on the machine. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System on AMD FX 6100 six-Core Processor at 3.31gHz and 32 GB RAM memory. There are two SLI-bridged GTX680 NVidia cards.
The software was very stable for the last six months, working with 720P proxy files from 2.5K masters (Blackmagic Design Camera). I am working on a feature-length project that exceeds 1000 edits. I have broken the file into 2 one hour segments.
I have deactivated the software before reinstalling the entire OS from scratch. PP6 was very stable for 48 hours. Then the freezing space bar returns. After a dozen strokes into the project, same problem. I have made cache files store next to originals, I have deleted preview files if they were corrupted and causing instability. Am I missing something?
I have Microsoft Security Essentials for virus protection. I double checked the memory for damage/defect. Nothing says that the motherboard or other components are damaged.
I am in film competition overseas and need to have deliverables in less than a month's time. I lost the last two weeks troubleshooting and this crisis came at an inopportune moment of the project.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Still getting software freezes but found a way to mitigate for the mean time.
Upon launching Adobe Premiere Pro, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to launch TaskManager as well.
You will want to highlight Adobe QT32 Server.exe
Right click and select "End Process Tree"
You will get considerable stability in the program, long enough to get timing of cuts done. Be sure to save often.
If the program freezes, do not hit Save. You definitely want to avoid saving the corruption into your TimeLine
CTRL-ALT-DEL to relaunch the TaskManager and highlight Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
Right-click to "End Process"
No need to reboot the whole system; just launch Premiere Pro again and continue with the session. Note that your work reverted to Last Save.
Hope this helps until the bug is fixed.

My return and shift key stopping working

my return and shift key stopping working. It wont go to the next line or function as an enter.
Now, most of the time it wont do anything but if you push it several times it will type a 0p or /- or control volume the instead. I checked the keyboard setting and voicecontrol and reset it to default and updated software for system but no resolve. How do I fix this?

Hi -- I have this problem too. I cleaned out the keyboard, did an SMC reset, a PRAM reset, and also followed the steps I could follow from this article, linked to in the answer to another question:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1381
no luck with any of it. Could we please have some advice targetted at the specific problem of nonfunctional shift and return keys on a MacBook Air?
In the meantime I'm using only the left-side shift and have downloaded and installed KeyRemap4MacBook and remapped my backslash key so it issues the "return" command. A clunky work around but it seems to do the trick, at least.

Windows 7 ESC key stopped working

I've got a fully patched Windows 7 Professional Desktop computer that I've been using for over 2 years. Yesterday my ESC key stopped working, which I first noticed when using Outlook and tried to close an open email window. I checked the keyboard
by moving it to another Windows 7 computer - works great. I also noticed that other keyboard shortcuts that utilize the ESC key still work, like for example pressing Ctrl / ESC brings up the Start menu. The problem is limited to functions that
operate off the ESC only - like closing an open email in Outlook or closing an open photograph on Facebook.
I downloaded a keyboard testing app that shows the key not working. But when I install this program on another computer and move the suspect keyboard - the program shows that it does in fact work.
I suspect something is wrong at a registry level - some entry has hijacked the key mapping. I've spent several hours on Google looking at various suggestions - all to no avail. I've tried updating drivers as a last resort - no change. Remember,
the ESC does work when used in a sequence involving multiple buttons. Any suggestions?

I've encountered a similar situation regularly: my Esc key just quits working in mid session, and I always forget what the cause/fix is.
I have this same keyboard for over 8 years now, and it always works fine, so no, it's not a hardware issue - these issues typically never are. Rebooting the PC always solves the issue, but rebooting a dev workstation, with a gazillion apps open is a PITA.
Turns out in my case it's always Photoshop CS2 that 'kills' my Escape key; as soon as I close Photoshop, the Esc key functions normally again.
Another issue I get is the Ctrl/Shift/Alt keys sometimes quit working; again, a reboot always fixes the issue, but rebooting is always a last recourse. Usually I just mash the Caps Lock/Ctrl/Shift/Alt; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and I need
to reboot...

My "9-o-l-." keys stop working after startup, and spreading! ahh help?

My "9-O-L-." keys stop working after startup and my arrow keys too.
Sometimes when I start up the keys will work for a bit then one by one stop functioning and then randomly work every so often, then it seems to "spread" to the right shift key, and sometimes the "8-I-K-," keys.
Around the same time when this all began my Battery completely stopped working too, does this have anything to do with it? I've reset my PRAM and no luck.
I'm planning on replacing the keyboard, will that fix the problem? or is it something deeper?
Thanks in advance!
-Andrew

I assume you've rebooted? Can you control the computer well enough to make a new account and log into it? Doubt this will fix it but maybe. The keyboard may need replacing but it might also be that the cable has worked loose so that some of the wires have disconnected but not all. Sounds like a trip or call to Apple is in order.

Satellite A105 Shift Keys stop working after BIOS update

I have a stack of laptop boards from the A105 series (Intel chipset) that I received with bad BIOS's. Two worked, and I updated the BIOS's on them to fix CPU compatibility issues. After that, the shift keys stopped working, and pressing Shift-A causes the power light to dim. Reverting to ANY previous version BIOS, whether through the Windows program, CD, or Crisis Recovery floppy (magic key is "F", not "B", "Esc", or "U"), does not fix the keyboard problem.
To make things more confusing, I did notice that the one single BIOS that seems to actually correct the problem is version 1.50, which I haven't seen available for any Tecra A7 or Satellite A100/A105, except a couple A100's, but the BIOS file is much too small and can't be loaded.
Does anyone have any idea why these Intel-based boards are doing this? Or does anyone know where I can get a usable version 1.50 BIOS?
For the sake of this post, please consider my skill level to be high. (In other words, I would be thankful for people trying to help with "Replace the keyboard", but I have about a dozen keyboards, all of which I have tried, and all of which work on other laptops. Additionally, if you have just a theoretical solution, I'm definitely open to hearing it. Also, if a Toshiba tech would like to reply, I would very much appreciate it!)

Hi, thank you for your help.
Some motherboards were not in chassis when I got them. Is there a place the PSAAxx model number would be written on the boards?
Four PSAA8U (Two A105-S4334 and Two A105-S4014) - Intel Chipset, fingerprint reader. Tried BIOS Versions 1.40, 1.70, 2.00, 5.10, 5.60, 5.90, and 6.00. Shift keys do not work on either one.
Two PSAA2U (A105-S2091 and A105-S2031) - ATi Chipset. BIOS versions 1.50, 1.80, and 2.30. Keyboard works.
Another PSAA8U (A105-S4184) - Intel Chipset, no fingerprint reader. BIOS version 6.00. Keyboard works.
I noticed that so far all of the models with fingerprint readers have the problem. All of the ATi Chipset boards are working fine, but they have significant processor limits. I am in the middle of updating the BIOS in another Intel one using a Crisis Rescue Disc, so after that finishes I will try disconnecting the fingerprint reader to see if it has an effect.
I don't think the keyboard controller is faulty, because these boards all failed on the same day. I have tried updating the BIOS using WinPhlash, Phlash16 in DOS, the install CD, and a Crisis Recovery Disk. I set the defaults in the BIOS almost every time, and I also have tried holding the power button for 60 seconds with the power cord unplugged and the battery removed (as some people have suggested.)
The shift keys don't work in DOS, Linux, Windows, or even in the BIOS. I test it in the BIOS by using Tab to cycle through the fields in time of day, then Shift-Tab to cycle backwards. This works with a USB keyboard, and it also works on the ATi chipset models and the Intel chipset models that are still working.
Thank you for your reply. (-:

Brightness control keys stop working after booting MacOSX

I bought a new iMac 27" a couple of weeks ago, and I installed Windows 7 using bootcamp.
All the control keys (brightness, volume, etc) works ok on Windows until I reboot it in MacOSX. When i start windows again, brightness controls keys stops working, leaving the screen with the maximus bright, which is killing my eyes.
Reparing boot camp drivers doesn't do the trick. Am I missing something?

Try fn + the controls. It might be that Windows defaulted to those buttons as F1, F2, etc. Using fn while pressing the buttons will 'tell' Windows that it has to listen to the Bootcamp software and lower the brightness.

All Letter Keys Stop Working

this has happened to me twice this week. and i don't know what is causing it.
i will be in the middle of working and all of a sudden all the letter keys stop working (i.e. i can't type anything)
However, the mouse still works, the arrow keys still work, the modifier keys still work... it's just the letter keys that stop working.
A simple Relaunch of Finder seems to do the trick, but i'm just curious how this problem is happening...
Any info on this would be great!
Thanks!

What system is this on?
It sounds like you're activating the numeric keypad that's overlayed on the standard keyboard. If this is a PowerBook or MacBook it's toggled by pressing the F6 key on the keyboard. When it's on (the key lights up), all the letter keys are disabled and only the keys with the subscript numbers and math operators are active.

Function keys stop working

For a while now, I've been encountering a problem where functions keys stop working. Pressing F8 (for spaces) or F12 (for widgets) will simply yield a "bonk".
Another symptom is that processes which open on a desktop other than the current one will fail to open because the desktop seems reluctant to switch.
I know other people have experienced similar problems because there is a post about spaces' keyboard shortcuts not working. The issue has not been resolved for many many weeks now.
I use a logitech wireless keyboard and trackball (with the logitech control application installed)
Sometimes this error will occur immediately after booting up. Sometimes it will go for days working fine. I consistently have 4 applications running:
- iTunes
- Thunderbird
- Firefox
- Adium
The other most common apps I run are:
- Quicktime
- Aperture
- iMovie
- Preview
Yet Another symptom of the problem is that the machine will refuse to shut down or restart. If I kill every "windowed" process in Activity Monitor, the machine will STILL fail to shut down. Ultimately, I have to do a 5-second hard power-down.
Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am running into the same issue
I use a Logitech Wireless Mouse.
The switch Spaces keys, F9/F10/F11 for Expose are not working either, the Mute/F10 Vol Up, Vol Down F11 and F12 work as does the Eject button.
F18 Show Dashboard or F4 Show Dashboard don't work either.
Most frustrating

MP870 MP Navigator EX 3.1 Error Message: "MP Navigator has stopped working"

Hello
I have a MX870 multi function inkjet. The scanned is the most important thing for me. BUt all of a sudden The software went crazy and cannot load. Everything was working fine up until a few weeks ago.
The error message from Windows is: MP navigator has stopped working then it gives me the option to debug or close. Either way nothing makes it work.
I am running it on Windows Vista Home Premium (service pack 2) . Device is connected via USB.
I have read other posts about the twain 32 folder but they refer to other operating systems such as windows 7. I also tried reinstalling the software. In fact, the cannon website where you can get support does not seem to have the model MX870. I had to select model MX876 which was the closest, in order to obtain a link to download the software.
Please help

PLEASE help!
