Qwerty keyboard stops working arbitrarily when replying to email

Qwerty keyboard stops working arbitrarily when replying to email. Unable to backspace or type anything? Any ideas?

I would reset the iPad and see if that fixes it:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

LG Extravert QWERTY Keyboard stopped working.

I got an LG Extravert for Christmas so it is less than 6 months old and the qwerty keyboard just stopped working. It was fine one day and keys stopped reacting the next. I've tried turning off the phone and restarting, no luck. I take very good care of my cell phone and it has never been dropped so I have no idea what happened. Any suggestions on how this can be fixed? Thank you in advance.

Ryath, let's see if we can change your luck. Have you tried soft resetting your device by removing the battery? Your next step would be to save your contacts at Backup Assistant and hard reset it in Settings. If the hard reset doesn't work then we can provide you with a warranty replacement device as long as there's no physical or liquid damage.
For your convenience, I've provided the steps on how to hard reset your device below:
From the main screen, select Menu.
Select Settings.
Select Phone Settings.
Select Security.
Enter the Security Code (default is the last 4 digits of the phone number).
Select Restore Phone.
Select OK.

Hello, what are lestras?

Why does my keyboard stop working when I get a new Facebook message?

Whenever I get a new message on Facebook chat, my keyboard stops working on all Firefox tabs. If I switch tabs or close and open the chat it starts working again. It's definitely not a problem with the keyboard, I've had no problems typing in Notepad while messages come in on the chat.

iTunes is not fully functional when operating in Safe Mode, so its possible that the component that supports Audible content is not running. If iTunes will only run in Safe Mode then there's an issue with your installation - see Turingtest2's tutorial Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates, in particular the section on removing all components of iTunes before installing the latest version.
I have Audible .aa files on a 2nd gen iPod Nano so there shouldn't be an issue with age ...

Helix keyboard stops working when dock battery reaches 3%

My other post has more details but the title says it all. My Helix keyboard stops working when dock battery reaches 3% even though the tablet battery has a charge. This seems to happen every time. A hard reset of the dock gets the keyboard working again. Any ideas on how to fix this?

This is my daughter's college computer so I have not used it. I just get the panic call when it locks up.
Is there any way to get a warning when the battery is low? I assume that it has a light on the base but I can see how she could miss it when focused on what she is doing. I am not sure it comes on since the tablet battery still has capacity. I find it odd that this happens when the tablet battery still has a decent amount of charge. Effectively it eliminates a fair amount of the battery capacity available for the computer.
I have other electronics that force you to shut done at low battery levels. I am surprise that a high end laptop performs this way.

Bluetooth keyboard stops working when i plug in my iphone 5

Hi All...
Heres a question from the twilight zone where strange things happen.
My Hardware/Software used:
- iMac OSX 10.9.2
- Mac wireless Keyboard
- Logitech mouse performance MX
- iTunes 11.1.5 (5)
- iPhone 5 v7.1 (11D167)
I plug in my iPhone via USB cable, and iTunes pops up.. it detects the iphone but not 100% as it just hangs... then out of nowhere, the keyboard stops working as it looses its connection, the only way to restore the connection is to reset the iMac.
Any ideas?

A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working. When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem.

A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working. When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem, and this magazine's app opens just fine on my wife's iPad.
I have deleted the app and reinstalled it from the Apple store and that makes no difference. I have also done a hard reboot on my iPad with no result.
Any thoughts about what might be wrong?

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

ITunes makes keyboard stop working?

This is a brand new PC that was just built, running Windows 7 Professional (64-bit).
I have tried 3 keyboards, one wired and and two wireless, all USB (this computer doesn't have a PS/2 connector). All of them are fine on other PCs. The keyboard works fine until I install iTunes, then it stops working. When I reboot, the keyboard works in the BIOS, but as soon as I get into Windows, it stops working again. If I uninstall iTunes, it's fine again. Reinstall iTunes, again, no keyboard.
Any idea why this is happening, or suggestions for fixing it?
Thank you!
Cyn

It is best to let as much as possible be handled automatically, but getting two screens working properly requires a bit of tweaking.

Bluetooth and Built-in keyboards stop working randomly

While I've read several threads about the built-in keyboard on MBPs stop working I've never seen one quite like this. We're on a late 2012 17" MBP, Core i7 with 4GB memory. Randomly both the built-in keyboard on the machine AND the Bluetooth keyboard stop working - but not fully. On both the arrow keys and backspace key still work but nothing else (CMD, space bar, etc).
What's really odd is a USB keyboard works perfectly when this happens. We plugged one in and blamo, it worked just great - but the built-in and the bluetooth ones continued to not work (just as described above).
The user commented that this has been the case on her last 2 machines and both were built from scratch. That leads me to think it's software rather than hardware - I went through everything that was running, shutting down everything I could - with no good results. If you log out/back in (or reboot) that fixes the problem as well (further leading me to software)
Thoughts anyone??
Thanks!

Half of keyboard stopped working.

Half of my Compaq V6000T laptop keyboard stopped working this morning- the right half. A USB keyboard works without issue. Will replacing the keyboard be sufficient or is there an underlying issue here?
Many thanks!

Follow this tutorial until you see that you remove the keyboard. http://www.insidemylaptop.com/disassemble-compaq-presario-v6000-laptop/ Make sure to keep track of all screws and parts, and be careful not to shock your laptop with static electricity! When the keyboard is removed check to see that the wire that plugs in is seated properly; you may want to clean it off a bit or unplug it and plug back in.

G72-c55dx keyboard stop working within 15 min of use

G72-c55dx keyboard stop working within 15 min of use or at rest check setting power bios updated late;s driver ver.?

Hi @rimesci ,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to assist you!
I understand that when you start your notebook the keyboard works for approximately 15 minutes and then stops responding.
You have checked the power settings, updated the bios and drivers but it still persists.
It sounds as if you have a conflict somewhere. The keyboard works OK and then something kicks in and keyboard stops.
I would try a clean boot to try and locate the issue. Perform a clean startup to determine whether background programs are interfering with your game or p... (from support.microsoft.com)
If this has not located the issue, do you feel any overheating on the unit?
If the issue persists, you can try a restore back to before this issue occurred. Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
If that did not work or is not a possibility, I would do a recovery back to factory.
Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
During the recovery process you will receive an opportunity to backup your personal files to prevent data loss.
If you have not done one recently, I suggest you do one now.
restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows 7)
If you are still having an issue, I suggest contacting HP support. They can remotely log onto your system to help with resolving issues.

My 13" macbook just stopped working. When you turn it on you get a white screen and hear a repetitive clicking sound on the left side. Is this the hard drive? Any suggestions on replacement drives?

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
If it is, then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions. After repairing use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for restarting from your hard drive.
If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.
