Problems and suggestions for N5901 Mini Wireless Keyboard.

I really like the mini keyboard I use on my mini-PC as a set top box for Windows 7 Media Center applications on my TV  but I have some  problems with it and have a few suggestions if they are going to update or design a replacement for it.
1.  PROBLEM: The Question Mark "?" which is labeled in orange on the "K" key but when you use Fn + K sometimes  gives the forward slash "/" character.
2.  PROBLEM: On the top row of regular keys below the media keys where the numbers are, the characters on the upper part of each of the keys is shown in orange, indicated they are accessed using the "Fn" button but they aren't they are accessed using the "Shift" key.  SUGGESTIONS: Change the color to either white or a different color, possibly blue and also change the color for "Shift" to the same color.
3. PROBLEM: No real standard Fx (F1 to F12) keys.  SUGGESTION: Since the problem listed in item 2 doesn't use the Fn key, label (in orange) and use the same row for Fn + 1 through Fn + 0 as F1 to F10,  Fn + - (minus) as F11 and Fn + = (equal sign) as F12.
4: PROBLEM: No Home, End, Page Up and Page Down keys.  SUGGESTION: Label (in orange) and use Fn + Left Arrow for Home, Fn + Right Arrow for End, Fn + Up Arrow for Page Up and Fn + Down Arrow for Page Down.

  • Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    The power button for the Trackpad is on the right hand end of the battery case. Press that button to initiate the pairing process. On the top of the Trackpad just above the power button is a tiny green light (you probably cannot see it unless it is lighted). That light will indicate ehther or not the Trackpad is discoverable. If the Trackpad has discoverable the green light will blink on and off. If it does not pair within 3 minutes you will have to press the power button again to re-initiate the pairing process. Once your Trackpad has paired, you can just leave it on and it will pair automatically when you reboot your Mac.
    If you are having problems pairing, try turning off any other Bluetooth devices within 30 or so feet of your Mac mini. That includes other Computers, iPhones, iPads, etc. that may be in the area. Once your Trackpad has pairedwith your mini, you don't have to be concerned about other Bluetooth devices.
    One other hint, I find that although the Wireless Trackpad does not eat batteries as fast as the Magic Mouse it still uses more than the Wireless Keyboard. It is a good idea to keep a supply of AA batteries around. I have used Apple's Rechargable batteries, but found they did not last that long before needing to be recharged. I have had the best battery life from Duracell Quantum batteries.

  • Trying to return a defective Lenovo Mini Wireless Keyboard 57Y6336

    I am hoping someone can help me since at this point I am completely frustrated.
    I received a Mini Wireless Keyboard Friday I ordered direct from Lenovo. It turns out it is defective and phone support has been completely useless as far as I can tell. Several of the keys don't work and the trackball is so loose you have to keep a finger on it otherwise the mouse cursor doesn't stay still. I spent over an hour on the phone on Friday trying to get a RMA to do a defective return, but apparently every department I talked couldn't help me so had to transfer me to someone else. I finally spoke to someone who I thought issued a RMA, but when I got home from work today I had a message from the same person saying I need to call 877-453-6686 which is both the second and fourth number I was transfered to and they should be able to help me. At this point I am over this and just want to return this so I can get my money back.
    I figured I would try on the forums since I have had no luck via the phone.

    As far as I can tell there is no one at Lenovo that handles this item so I might as well put in for a credit card dispute. I tried calling several times last week and again today.
    Every department I am connected to says they don't handle accessories unless it came with a PC.
    I wish I had known this was how my experience would be before I bought the N5901.

  • When I try to connect my bluetooth keyboard to my ipad, the dialog box pops up and says: "Make sure 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' is turned on and in range." But the keyboard is turned on and is right in front of the ipad. Any thoughts?

    When I try to cnnect my bluetooth keyboard to my ipad, the dialogue box pops up and says: "Make sure 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' is turned on and in range." The thing is, the keyboard is on and is sitting in front of the ipad. I have used it before, but not for many months. I changed the batteries today just in case. The green light on the keyboard comes on and continues blinking. What am I missing?

    Keyboards Can only be paired with one device at the time so if it's paired with another device IN range it Will not pair with the ipad

    That's so you can text with your thumbs. If it does' tog back together  automatically  put your finger on the tiny typewriter  and you should get a pop up to reconnect keyboard. Or more easily put a finger on each one and pop them together.

    Demo,
    I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do that the instruction says since i am not familiar with Apple at all what are quick links even? Am i supposed to do this on Itunes on my Ipad or on the computer?
    this was that reply you mentioned.
    I spoke with Apple Tech Support and they guided me through this.  I was trying to get the App Store working on a new iPad mini using a new, but existing Apple ID.  To get it to work, I had to go onto iTunes on my main computer (not on the iPad).  I had been trying to use the Sign In button, and I was having the issue of being "forced" to enter a credit card, which I did not want to do.  Here was the solution I was given, which worked for me.
    Log out of iTunes, if you are not already.  (Or hit Cancel if you're on the Review Payment screen.)
    Instead of going into Sign In, go to Redeem under the Quick Links, on the right-hand side, down a bit.
    Go through the screens, accepting the EULA, etc.  You will get to a Review Payment screen, similar to the one you saw before, but it will have a None button.
    You can enter an iTunes card here if you want, but I was able to leave that field blank and still successfully get the account set up, ready to use on the iPad.

    If you want to get a little more "exotic" you can try remapping the function keys.  I did a little google searching and the hits that looked promising are,

    Hello,
    For a few days I have been trying to access my files on Creative Cloud web without success. I´ve got this message only:
    "Page temporarily unavailable. We will return soon."
    "We are working quickly to resolve the problem and apologize for the delay.
    Check back later or visit our website for status updates.
    In addition, you can get help in the forums of the Creative Cloud.
    Thank you for understanding!"
    (I used Google Translate)
    Somebody help?

    You do not need ?&promoid=KRUVP at the end of the url but it should not matter.
    One thing to check is if your hosts file is modified. Open the Command Prompt and type: notepad %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
    This will open a read-only copy of your host file in Notepad. Are there any entries in this file regarding adobe.com?
    The other thing you can do is open the Developer Tools in the Chrome browser. On Windows press Ctrl + Shift to open them. Switch to the Network tab. Reload the page by pressing Ctrl + r. Check for any 4xx or 5xx errors which should be colored red.
    Post screenshots of your results or send me a private forum message with the information.

  • Urgent help. I have upgraded my phone but every few hours the apple appears and stays for 15 min an hour or more?

    Urgent help. I have upgraded my phone but every few hours the apple appears and stays for 15 min an hour or more?

    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.
    If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • When I am connected to the WiFi, my apps cannot be download. Once I had disable the wifi and connect directly to the service provider, the apps will start to download. Please advise what is the problem and solution for my iPhone 5.

    I can't follow your meaning. What does connect directly to your ISP mean?
    Did you mean turning off WiFi but turning on Cellular Data on your iPhone?

  • New Mac Mini - wireless keyboard issue

    I bought a new mini and wireless keyboard and mouse. The mouse works but the keyboard is not being recognized. Any help? It is a new mini so I cannot get onto the preferences and I do not have another mac keyboard.

    Scrounged a Microsoft USB mouse and plugged into Mac Mini. Allowed me to click through to new pane telling me I had no keyboard connected, please connect one. Well, that's progress.
    Took a number of attempts. Eventually it saw and displayed my KB's Bluetooth ID, but then failed. It was almost "reluctant," like it was trying to get out of work. This is not behavior I am used to from non-sentient digital equipment. Unless... never mind.
    With a functioning KB and mouse I finally was able to open Lion and System Preferences and discover the DEFAULT trackpad settings DISABLED clicks! I assume Apple has a method to what seems madness. Otherwise those Stuxnet saboteurs have been moonlighting in Cupertino to devise an out-of-the-box fail.
    I didn't start out an Apple fanboy but since 2007 their products have turned me into one. Yet I was so disappointed today I planned to return the Mac Mini, KB and Magic Trackpad tomorrow. My Apple Store is nearby. I kinda knew that USB end run would work, but I was insulted they made me resort to such a kludge.
    I cannot imagine why that initial Bluetooth pairing procedure hassle remains without some kind of service bulletin addressing known problems. So many people have commented on it over these boards. I flatter myself to conclude Apple does so many other things right that once in a while things get past them.
    As usual, now that I command Lion OSX on an HDTV from the couch, I'll be keeping this Mac Mini as part of my home's Apple suite, crossing my fingers against Bluetooth issues.

  • 10.4.3 and Single User Mode, now Wireless Keyboard can

    Hello all.
    IN case you haven't found out which I did, just to let you know, with the latest OS 10.4.3 update, now you can boot into Single User Mode (fsck) with your
    b wireless keyboard
    and still at the same time
    b continue to complete fsck process with your wireless keyboard!!
    No more switching to a regular wired keyboard just to complete the process!
    Cheers

    Hi Steven, bit unclear on a couple things.
    When I went into single user mode the fans went wild. But I knew this to be normal and proceeded with repairing the disk
    Normal for fans to go wild in single user or when repairing the disk?
    I replicated the problem – applied the same fix and again every thing was normal.
    The problem being screaming fan and the fix being resetting SMU? (unplug for 15secs). So how did you replicate it, and is it really fixed now?
