Question mark key does not work..... starnge

right, every key but the question mark seems to be working fine. One thing I know, this is an internal malfunction. I connected another keyboard via usb and the same problem persists.
Anyone experience this weirdness before(question mark)
eg
p.s. every time I try to use it I get a sonar sound only

Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check whether either the listening key or the speech key has become set to that keystroke; if so, change the setting.

Question mark key doesn't work!!!!!!

I have an HP Pavilion s3700y and have the most bizarre problem. The question mark key won't work, regardless of what sort of keyboard i use. Right now i'm using the wired keyboard that came with the system, HP kb-0630. however i've also used microsoft and logitech wireless keyboards with the same result. everything else works fine but when i press the shift key and then the question mark key, nothing happens. the forward slash underneath works fine but the question mark key is dead.
i'm running out of ways to write only declarative sentences and fear i will need to ask a question sooner or later. know what i mean (ahhhhh!!!!!)
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
This might help if it is a software problem:
- How to use the United States-International keyboard layout in Windows 7, in Windows Vista, and in Wi...
- How to change your keyboard layout
Also check if the Question mark works in the On-Screen Keyboard.
Windows Vista/Windows 7pen On-Screen Keyboard by clicking the Start button , clicking All Programs, clicking Accessories, clicking Ease of Access, and then clicking On-Screen Keyboard.
Windows XP: Open On-Screen Keyboard by clicking the Start button, clicking All Programs, clicking Accessories, Clicking Accessibility and then On-Screen keyboard.
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

Tab key does not work

This is very strange, please read.
My tab key does not work. It will not move from one text field to another.
I have checked my keyboard settings. "Full keyboard access:" is at the default "Text boxes and lists only".
I have deleted this user and recreated the user, and with the completely new user the tab key does not work. Other users on the machine it DOES work.
This is happening now on 3 of our 5 machines.
Lastly, when I turn on the keyboard viewer (International/Input Menu/Keyboard viewer: it shows you what key the system thinks you are pressing when you press a key on the keyboard), it shows that when I press the tab key, the Command key is being held down instead. It's not showing that the tab key is being pressed.
Has anyone seen this previously? Again, it's happening on 3 of our 5 machines (some users the tab key works, some users it doesn't). These are fresh user creations (no special software installed, no prefs changed, etc...)
Thank you for any info!!!

"Repair Disk Permissions" from Disk Utility may help.
Also, cmd-opt-n-v (Clear NV RAM) may help as well.

You might try this:
Remove any USB device except mouse/keyboard
Perform a PRAM-reset (hold ALT-CMD-P-R until you've heard the starting chime 3 times)

When I am just working on the computer the up arrow key does not work at all but when I use bootcamp to go to the PC side the arrow works so i know its not a phisical problem, i have tryed everything i know and still no success.

Hello brooklinekilla,
I would be concerned too the up arrow key on my keyboard was not working. I found an article that can assist with further isolating and troubleshooting issues with the built in keyboard. I recommend following the steps under the section titled, "Some keys don't work as expected" in the following article:

Is there a keyboard shortcut to launch firefox 3.6.3 with windows vista? Hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work.

The hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work. This is in Windows Vista.

Thank you Morbus and Cor-el, for your prompt replies. Here's what I did: I've placed the Firefox icon in the quick launch toolbar. So I right-click this firefox icon>Properties>Shortcut tab>in Shortcut Key field, add X (the word "None" changes to "ctrl + alt + X")>Apply>Okay>and that closes the dialog window.
Then, to try the new launch short-cut, I press and hold down, in order, ctrl, then alt, then x (holding all three down) . . . and nothing launches.
I thought this would do it! So any further thoughts would be a splendid help ---- many thanx!

New Apple Keyboard Launchpad F4 key does not work

New Apple Keyboard Launchpad F4 key does not work
Hi, I have now got ne new wireless keyboard because my old one broke. I connected the keyboard, the F3 key (Mission Control) functions, the F4 key, especially for Lunchpad does not work, I'm Lion on it, previously on the old keyboard I had in 2009, he occupiedwith Launchpad F5.
Have System Preferences / Keyboard / Keyboard Shortcuts reset everything goes ......... but not yet!!
Maybe someone can help me!!
Thank you
greeting

Hi,
Your migration to Lion brought over a previous hot key preferences document. And this contains one bad key that wasn't updated.
- Quit System Preferences (if open)
- Delete this document to remove a carry-over mapping error.
- Then logout
Note: That this will delete any existing modified keyboard assignments. Re-assign changes manually.
Note2: This document is in your users preferences folder.
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist

Enter key does not work anymore in address bar after FF update

After the update the Enter key does not work anymore. Neither when I type the url directly, nor when I select it from the history.
In short FF has become unusable. Now I need to install and use a less crappy browser. Extremely sloppy, amateuristic update.

see if this is helpful : go to Tool > Options > Advanced > General tab > Browsing and '''Uncheck''': "Use hardware acceleration when available" .

Clear Key does not work in DW (OSX)

In Dreamweaver, when you select a local file and hit the
Delete key (back delete located in between forward slash and the
end key), nothing happens. In the contextual menu, there is a Clear
key symbol but nothing happens.
Does anyone why the Clear key does not work?
I'm using OS X 10.6. But I could remember this happening in
earlier OS.
Thanks

Really? Something is wrong there. I sure can....

My key does not work/Invalid Registration

I have been trying for days to unlock Quick Time(QT) Pro, but my registration key does not work!!! I've done all possible requirements, I have copied and pasted my user name and the key code (so those are correct), I do the correct qualifications to run the software, I am using the QT control settings, and yes I do have QT 7.0.3. All my criterias meet to unlock QT Pro but I keep getting the message saying Invalid Registration. I've done all possible trouble shooting techniques given by Apple's tech support but I've simply have had no luck. To my understanding the key code has to be 5 sets of 4 numerical characters (20 characters long) but the one that I got from Apple is only 7 characters long. I've clicked on the link that retrieves a lost key but I get the same number. I try calling customer service but have had no luck in reaching a live operator. What do I do?

Yea you are right, I am inputting the part number. However, I keep looking for the 20 character long key but there is nothing there in either the confirmation email or the invoice email that they sent me. I check the "Download History" on the Apple Store website but it only gives me the name QT Pro, the part number and the date that I purchased it. There is no 20 character long key given. Could they have not given me the key by accident? Like I said, event when I go to the link to retrieve my lost key, it gives me the same part number! Please help, its been more than a week and I am getting frustrated!!!
