One of the keys on Satellite E205-S1980 not working

I currently have a Satellite E205-S1980 and the "right" arrow key is not functioning properly. It will either work very weakly or not at all. I have cleaned my keyboard and still, it is not working right.

Satellite E45-B4200
Maybe these people can help.

  • Some of the keys on my keyboard do not work.  I've run through the trouble shooting tips and still no solution.

    Wireless keyboard - Not all Keys work.  For example: the top F1 through F12 and the right side shift key do not work. 
    Any thoughts?
    Thank you in advance.

    1. Try resetting NVRAM/PRAM and SMC. Doesn't usually 'cure' keyboard problems you report, but it costs nothing and only takes a few minutes.

    2. Try plugging in a USB keyboard. Doesn't absolutely have to be a Mac keyboard. A PC keyboard will work for a test. If the typing problem does not occur with the USB keyboard, you have a temporary solution until you can arrange to visit a repair facility.
    3. If your MacBook is older and has a user-removable battery, shut down the computer, remove the battery, and examine it for signs of 'bulging' or swelling. Then connect the computer to the Magsafe power supply, without reinstalling the battery, and turn it back on. If the keyboard problem has gone away, it was likely caused by a swelling battery.

  • Is it possible to change a new one if the Iphone 5 wake button is not working?

      I heard the iphone 5 wake up button has a disign defect. Will they give me a free repairing even my iphone is over warranty?

    Heard from who?  Unless it was Apple, assume they are full of manure.
    There are no design issues with the iPhone 5.
    Warranty is one year from date of purchase, beyond that, hardware issues are handled via an Out of Warranty replacement which is $269US.

  • The keys on my keyboard do not work all the time. I have to strike a key more than once before it appears on the screen.

    I've changed batteries on my wireless keyboard with no help. It is a Wireless Keyboard 1000. I'm thinking it could be caused by an addon, but not sure which one.

  • HT4515 One of my keys on my keyboard is not working at all.

    Is there a way to repair a keyboard without going to the store

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

    Don't use any cleaning spray. Wipe with a moist but not wet microfiber cloth.

    All new keyboards need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and above for full functionality.
    Rather short-sighted of Apple perhaps, but that seems to be a trend these days.
    I'm afraid the only fix is to upgrade to SL. Personaly, I'd take it back and get a refund and seek an older keyboard or a third-party one elsewhere.

  • The function key in my Satellite C660 is not working

    The function key in my Toshiba Satellite C660 is not working except for volume.
    That problem appeared after i changed something in the startup programs and uninstalling as i remember tvap and no button support appears in my start up programs :(

    That unbelievable I did something wrong..
    First of all you have to install VAP. Then reboot the notebook.
    Download and install Flash Cards Utility and reboot the notebook again.
    Now go to Start -> All Programs -> Toshiba -> Utilities -> Flash Cards and restart this software.
    Now the FN buttons should work.
    But before you would start the whole installation, you should uninstall the VAP and Flash Cards and should clean the registry using CCleaner as suggested by some users hare in the forum!

  • One of the keys popped off of my keyboard, is there a way for me to pop it back on ?

    one of the keys popped off of my keyboard, is there a way for me to pop it back on ?

    dancestar10997,
    if it still has its tiny retaining tabs, then you should be able to pop it back on. If they’re no longer there, then it won’t stay on.

  • I did an auto software update on my iMac, which included a restart. When the machine restarted it's stuck with an Apple logo and spinning wheel. I've tried all of the key strokes that are supposed to work, but nothing has. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Gray screen could be any number of things, bad third party at boot kext file, a bad Apple one, a bad install/upgrade of OS X, drive corruption etc.

  • I am having problem with me Iphone4, looks like the mic of my phone is not working. no one can hear me if I make a call to them

    Can any one please help me I am having problem with me Iphone4, looks like the mic of my phone is not working. no one can hear me if I make a call to them. I have tried all restoring options but no use. please help me

    The mic on my iPhone4 has just quit also. Similar symptoms to yours in that people I'm talking to hear only static or my voice very faintly. The voice/memo recorder also only really records static.
    It happened suddenly and seemed to get better after a day or two but then went completely after another day.
    I'm returning it to Vodafone New Zealand shortly but will have to wait 5-10 days for a replacement. There are NO Apple accredited means to speed this procedure up in NZ.
    We don't even have a single physical Apple Store where you could walk in and talk to a Genius.

  • My USB port on my Macbook Pro stopped working and i tried the SMC reset and the one closest to the SD port still continues to not work. Is there anything i can do besides bringing it in?

    I would do another SMC reset. If nothing changes you should take the computer in to an Apple store for a free diagnostic. You should make an appointment.

    HI JUST COPYED CALL OF DUTY FROM ONE OF MY MACS TO OTHER IT WILL NOT WORK ON THE OTHER ONE?

    Are you saying that you bought the game from the App store and made another copy onto a dvd so you can play it on another computer too?  If so, you can not do that, you have to buy it again for the other computer.
