Num Lock Not locking Pearl 3G

I know you are suppose to hold down the Shift key then the Alt key.  I have had all generations of the Pearl before.  I know how to use it.  I just got my Pearl 3G from Rogers, and the num lock won't work.  It will allow me to enter one number, then revert back to letters.  If I press the menu key and select Enable Numeric, it will work.  Did blackberry intend this?

Hey kliners,
When you hold down the "shift" key and they hit the "alt" key are you getting the little 123 up in the top right corner of the device? You may want to backup your device and complete a clean applciaion load and test before restoring any data. Here is how you backup http://bit.ly/aSediX, here is how you do the software load http://bit.ly/cKy9A0.
Let us know how you make out.

  • HP Pavilion DV7-1428ca _ CAPS + NUM LOCK Continually Blinks + Will not Start up Black Screen

    Would appreciate any suggestions on the issue I am encountering.
    I have an HP Pavilion DV7-1428ca that was left powered on, so it went into Safe mode (screen goes blank). Once I came back to my Laptop hitting any key would take out of of the Safe mode however this time it did not. It remained with black screen irregardless of buttons pressed.
    Had booted and can hear the fan and hdd go for the 2secs then it stops to a Black Screen with the "CAPS + NUM LOCK" Continually Blinking. Tried to Hard Boot several times but the same thing re-occurs.
    It does not seem to be blinking in a series a code, just a steady blink (every sec) for both the CAPS + NUM Lock for as long as I leave it on. HP Site provides a chart from 1-6 series of blink codes which does not seem to apply to me.
    Being out of Warranty I am hesitant in bringing it to a local repair shop without trying any alternate trouble shooting first.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    First of all, shutdown the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter unplugged, remove the battery, and then hold down the Power button for a full minute.  Plug in the AC Adapter ( leave the battery out ) and see if the notebook will start.

  • Satellite P500 (PSPE8A-01R002) - Number pad and num lock not working

    After upgrading to Windows 7 the number pad and num lock on my P500 PSPE8A-01R002 is not working.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Since keys worked in vista then its reasonable to assume there is something in the "software". I doubt that windows can make changes to the bios though there is Toshiba HWsetup but that does't look to do anything relevant.
    I don't know what conclusions could be drawn from the results of trying an external keyboard.
    How about trying various boot sequences such as direct to the command prompt and direct to safe mode to pin down it the problem is specific to your W7 installation? - why not try making a bootable cd (i'd have to google to find out how but you should be able to try windows 98 or even DOS - there was also a run from cd/dvd version of Linux and there's also the new Google os to consider).
    Within W7 the only things that affect the keyboard would be settings in control panel > ease of access where the keypad can be set up as a mouse or keys remapped so num lock is "something else" and, clutching at straws, I presume keyboard language settings - are there any languages that require use of a numeric key pad to give a full character set (keyboard set to foreign language and Windows set to "English" so that the foreign character set isn't displayed?

  • Num Lock not working

    Hey, when I click Num Lock the computer doesn't register the numbers. For some reason the *+-= buttons work in num lock, but when I try to hit the buttons with the numbers it doesn't. Any help?
    Thanks

    Thanks again!!!
    Looks like I got the solution here, thanks to Wind Mobile's technical support! The FAQ I had previously read, suggests pressing ALT and SHIFT in a certain order. That sounded similar to the instructions given for how to do it on my Bold 9700 too, so I got confused and thought it was exactly like on my Bold, but it's a little different.
    On the Pearl, you have to first hold down the Shift key, and while holding it, you have to press the Alt key, without letting go of the Shift.  That's different than with my Bold, where I have to first press Alt, let go of it, and then press one of the Shift keys which will either put it in capslock or numlock mode.
    To exit the numlock mode on the Pearl, you have to press the Alt key once again. That's different than on the Bold, where you had to instead press the Shift key again.
    Let me know if this works for you too, then I'll mark this message as the solution here. And you can probably post it on the spanish language forum here too.

  • Caps/Num lock LED indicators not working in gnome

    I have a qPad MK-85 mechanical keyboard, and I can't seem to get the LED status indicators for the lock keys to work.
    The CAPS and NUM lock function still works, but I don't have any indication whether they'r'e on or not.
    It only seems to be under gnome I have this problem, because they're working just fine in grub, windows, and tty2-6.
    I have done a search and it seems a lot of other people with mechanical keyboards have the same problem, but no solutions.
    So.. anyone here have any solutions?
    Edit: tested in xfce, not working there either

  • Portg Z30-A-108 - Num lock does not work on external keyboard

    Hi,
    We have a Portg Z30-A-108. We use it with external wireless keyboard and mouse. On the external keyboard is used, the num pad does not work (as if the "num lock" was off). I tried using the function key FN+F11 on the laptop but without any succes.
    Does somebody had the same problem or any idea to solve it ?
    Thanks.
    Nicolas

    >On the external keyboard is used, the num pad does not work (as if the "num lock" was off)
    You are talking about the external keyboard.
    But from my knowledge the internal Portg Z30-A-108 keyboard does not contain the num pad. Possibly this is the reason why the Num Lock is turned off.
    By the way: the NumLock can be enabled in the system registry.
    Open Windows registry editor using the command regedit.
    In the registry, go to the folders.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Control Panel\ Keyboard\
    Within the keyboard folder, you should find a string value named "InitialKeyboardIndicators" with a value of 0, 1, or 2.
    Here the value meaning:
    0 = Num Lock is turned OFF after the logon.
    1 = Disable Num Lock.
    2 = Numlock is turned ON after the logon.

I pulled out the battery to see if it would reset but it didn't work. Can anyone please help

    Hi, I have a HP Pavillon Dv4 1225 dx. Since a week when I turn it on I hear a noise that seems that it is going to start but it doesn´t. The scroll, num block and caps looks bottom are blinking all time and the screen remains as if it were off, even if I wait for an a half an hour. I tried changing the memories, connecting another monitor, checking the battery but it doesn´t work. I would be great if you could give me an advice about what can I do to solve the problem. Kind regards

    Hi,
    I have an HP Pavilion 17-e031sa Notebook PC purchased only 2-weeks ago and running Windows 8.  The num-lock key does not illuminate when activated (the caps-lock key does illumnate when activated).  Any help would be appreciated.

    Somehow, my num lock key got reversed on MBP. The green light comes up if it is OFF. I.e. I can type normally, if green light is off, typing O =6.
    I will rebooting but it is just amazing to discover all these glitches which is absent from PCs.

    Is it a glitch or do you have "sticky keys" turned on in Universal Access?

  • OSD for the Caps Lock and Num Lock is not appearing.

    Hi all,
    I recently discovered that the Caps Lock and Num Lock OSD has stopped appearing when I activate/disactivate these functions. The functions still work, just that the notifications do not pop up.
    All the rest of the OSD notifications still DO work, like volume, ThinkLight, brightness, etc.
    I've checked the on-screen display settings in Control Panel and found that it set to 'enable' with fadeout at 3 seconds.
    I've turned it off and on to 'reset' it but to no avail.
    Help, please.
    Thanks in advance.

    They're not supposed to show up on T400's because the indicators exist as physical indicators on the lower bezel.

  • Satellite A660 - Num Lock LED not on

    Hi everyone!
    I've a problem with the Num Lock LED. Although the num lock is on, LEDs do not indicate this. This interferes me at work, a bit.
    Any Ideas?
    Regards, G.

    Hi buddy,
    So you can use the number pad but just the LED is not on?!
    Well, theoretically the LED could be faulty so its not on. Thats the only explanation I have. I mean if the num pad works its no hardware malfunction of keyboard itself so it must the LED
    Do you use the preinstalled Windows version?
    If your notebook is under warranty you can get a new keyboard for free. Just get in contact with an authorized service provider and explain the situation. The guys will help you to get rid of this :)

  • CPU not functional - 1 blink of caps and num lock

    I have HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook
    It started giving me blank screen with caps lock and num lock blinking, and I went to the HP support and found out that it has something to do with "CPU not functional" thing. I have to say this diagnosis is bogus and on HP site it says I have to contact HP support for this, and when I go to contact HP support they said my warranty has ended so I cannot even send them an email about it except come to this forum again post my grievance. It seems this error is happening to many customers, and if I remember correctly CPU is not something that will go wrong suddenly, maybe the motherboard or battery, but all hardware parts not the CPU. It seems there is a known issue with DV series of notebooks where this blinking is happening. To your surprise I'm now using the same laptop to post this while the lights are still blinking. The best place HP support directed me was either to pay for service or to contact recycling, REALLY? Is this really the award-winning support HP has. I am dismayed with the intricacy the site has in getting your problems heard by HP and get a resolution. So here I am asking for the community forum if they have fixed their laptops after getting the famous "CPU not functional" error.
    And now before I submit this, the cpu fan has started to make very scary noises, just like a small motor bike, somebody please help me.
