No sound when pressing volume keys

When I press the volume keys on my keyboard, it doesn't make the sound that lets you know the level of volume. It sometimes works, but mostly its not working. Please help.

I am having the same problem: any luck finding a solution?

Winxp is gone when pressing option key at startup, "no bootable device"

Hi everyone,
I'm new to mac and recently bought a MBP.
I did bootcamp and installed windows xp and SP3 at the same time in a small partition, I remember it was 8gb.
I had no problem booting in to xp or mac after the installation, I can even press option and see both OS.
But now I cannot boot to windows, at startup while pressing the option key, I only see mac os and not windows. I also tried rebooting from the startup disk utility, but it has a black screen saying "no bootable disk found." It wants me to insert a bootable disk, so I inserted the window xp disk and has to force restart the laptop. Then it started a process like trying to load the files to reinstall win xp, of course I didn't let it.
Now when I went back to disk utilities I see that the winxp partition is 9.2gb, it was 8gb when I made it.
Recently I split my mac partition into 2, I tried to do the time machine back up, but then it takes too long so I canceled it and deleted the partition. I wonder if this affects my window xp partition.
Now I cannot see winxp when pressing option key at startup, but can see it in startup disk utility, and disk utility. When I boot from startup disk utility, it shows "no bootable device, insert cd, and press anykey..." I tried verifying and repairing the parition in disk utility, didn't work.
So this is all I did before I cannot boot into xp.
1. made new partition for winxp (formated partition as FAT)in bootcamp and installed winxp + sp3. everything was fine.
2. create another partition, and call it "data" <-want to create this for data only, while the other half is for software installation only.
3. create another partition for time machine, but when running time machine it says the partition is too small, so I delete it and make the partition bigger.then I run time machine, but since it takes way too long, I canceled it, and deleted the partition.
4. in winxp, had installed kapersky anti-virus 9.0
Now, I have 3 partitions: 1 for software installation, 1 for data, and 1 for winxp.
So why can't I boot to windows? Did things overwrite? Please help me, I'm so frustrated. Thank you.

Thanks fortuny,
I had read the link you suggested. And since my partition for windows is FAT32, as noted in the website, I can edit the boot.ini directly in my mac. In my mac, it already shows that the partition # is 3,
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN/fastdect
but my window os is not booting.
Like the link noted, "it crashes with the "I'm sorry, we couldn't start up Windows. Do you want to start in Safe Mode?" screen. You'll also see a flicker of the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH, which flashes an UNMOUNTABLEBOOTVOLUME error so quickly you won't have a chance to read it. This was the hint that the BOOT.INI entries were incorrect..."
According to the boot.ini in the site, my boot.ini file was already set up correctly, so why can't windows startup?
Also something I don't understand from this:
"NOTES: If you didn't follow the instructions and chose to PARTITION the existing volume instead of RESIZING then ADDING a partition, this appears to mess up BootCamp's boot loader and you may have to start again. Step 3, however, may offer you a way out."
When I did the 3rd partition, I did it in Disk Utility in mac, not from the mac os cd, and I split the mac partition into 2, I didn't do the "resizing," then using the unused space to make new partition... I wonder if this is causing the normal booting...
So do I start again by deleting my data partition or start from reinstalling windows? If the problem can be fixed without installing windows, of course, it would be great.

MSI GE60 0ND - Keyboard making squeaky sound when pressed.

Having this weird issue on my new laptop, out of nowhere I just realized my "w" button is making slightly loud and squeaky sound when pressed. I'm curious if in this product we could remove the key and put it back in?
Thank you.

I tried turning off AHCI in the bios which resulted in a bsod on windows startup. I then enabled AHCI again and started up windows. Windows then went into error checking mode and after about 30 minutes had the message that it was unable to fix errors with the system. Booted up normally after that and it was fine, however it took much longer than usual.
Should I try disable AHCI and then run windows recovery so it puts a fresh copy of win 7 on the drive?
Edit: I ran hdd tune before trying to disable AHCI, no errors were found and the hdd health was ok
Edit2: installed https://sites.google.com/site/quiethdd/ which seems to have stopped the sound

My ipod touch thinks headsets are plugged in as indicated when pressing volume control. We did a reset but that did not work. What is next?

My ipod touch thinks headsets are plugged in as indicated when pressing volume control. We did a reset but that did not work. What is next?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Focus lost when pressing ALT key

Hi,
is there any way to prevent the focus to be lost when pressing ALT key in an AIR app??
I tried event.preventDefault() in KEY_UP and KEY_DOWN events but it doesn't work
when the user press the ALT key, the stage loses the focus
thanks

I am now having trouble with the same issue. I have tried removing the ALT key from the Input Map from my frame and the component I'm having trouble with. I have also tried setting my own action in the action map for this. We also tried listening for the key pressed event and putting focus back to the combobox where I want focus to remain. I am now working on trying to use the processKeyEvent method to handle this, but have not had any luck as of yet with that. If anyone has some help on this, I'd greatly appreciate it!

No sound when press physical keyboard keys

Hello ! By clicking on the physical keyboard keys on my Blacberry Passport no sound ( tone) as when you press the virtual keys ( numbers, symbols, ....). And how are you ? What could be the problem? Is there a sound when you press the physical keys ?
Solved!

Hi @SPBU
By design, audible 'typing noise' will not occur when pressing any of the physical keys.
Audible noise will only occur when using the virtual keyboard. Thanks!

How can i select the next column instead of next row when press enter key

I need to know how can i select the next column instead of next row when i press the enter key.By default ,when i press enter key the next row is selected and the column remain unchanged but I wants opposite that is the row should remain unchanged but column index will changed.
Thanks to all.

Well, the right arrow key will already move you to the next column, so the easiest way to do this is to modify the InputMap to have the Enter key invoke the same Action as the right arrow key.
You can search the forum for my "Table Actions" (without the space) example that will show you how to do this.

"Click" sound when releasing a key

when releasing a key on my midi keyboard i hear a "click" sound. how do i turn it off? thanks. Alon

I have noticed a 'click' upon release of both the Smoth and Smokey Clav instruments. Never played a real Clav so don't know if this is a faithful replication, but there seems to be no way to get rid of the annoying click...

DR-BTN200's right ear is louder and left ear part makes weird sound when the volume is high

I bought DR-BTN200 a while ago and I've been feeling that the right ear part is louder than left ear part.
Not because of my hearing; if I switched R and L around, I still hear left (original right) louder than the right (original left).
Also if I increase the volume, the left ear part makes a high pitch sound when singer/talker/instrument makes an emphasis in their voice/sound.
Is this a common problem? I didn't drop it at all or anything and I just keep the headphone in the part of bag where I am supposed to put laptop in. From outside I don't see any damage on it either.
Any help is appreciated.

Please follow the steps here to troubleshoot the issue. If you need further assistance, please post your inquiry on Sony France Community here. Thanks!

So basically if a iphone has a fault after the 1 year warranty period is over, there is nothing the consumer can do but purchase a new phone??
Pretty much. Except that Apple will replace it for a fixed fee that is far less than the cost of a new phone. In the US the replacement cost for an iPhone 4 is $149. It is comparable in the UK. Unless you can prove that the fault was present at the time of purchase. A switch wearing out would probably be considered normal wear and tear, not a "fault".

I sent it to reinstalled the software and it looks ok now but, anyone know for new phone, how long the battery will last? My unit found only two days without playing music all the time.
Just an advise
On it's first time fully charge and discharge - vice versa for three times. After that don’t drain your battery every day to 10-20% of its charge. You can actually expect battery problems by draining the battery frequently.
Roughly every 30 charges, deliberately discharge your battery to 10-15%, and fully charge to 100% afterwards.
This will help maintain the accuracy of the “fuel gauge” on the device (your battery meter or scale). It has nothing to do with the battery memory but helps maintain the accuracy of the device’s percentage of battery charge left.
Good luck

N95-1 turns off when press any key

I was using normally the phone when suddenly it turned off, I thought was the battery but it's go, I tried other battery with the same result. I turn on the phone, and when I press any key it turns off. If the keyboard keeps locked the displays says yeah unlock the keys, but when i unlocked and press any button it's turns off, I made the hard reset trick, but this couldn't solve the problem, help me please

I have the exact same problem with my Nokia Luna 8600, turns on normally, but as soon as I press any key, it turns off and changing battery nor formatting didnt help.
Any ideas?
