Razer Lycosa media keys not working iTunes 11.0.1.12

I recently updated to iTunes 11 from the latest iTunes 10 version. My media keys on my Razer Lyocsa were working prior to then. Does anyone know of a way to get them to work again? I tend to use them to skip/pause songs while midgaming. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.

Apple keyboard media keys not working

Yesturday i was trying to trun down the volume in my itunes off my apple keyboard, when i went to do so nothing happend even with the eject button with the cd nor can I make the screen brighter or darker and the dashboard key is on my play key.

Wow! I am in the exact same situation. I don't think it is Snow Leopard tho b/c when I plug my old keyboard back in the media keys work fine. It might have to do with the apple aluminum keyboard 2.0 update but when I try to download that it says my system is unable to support it (eben tho it only requires at least 10.5.8).
If you find a solution let me know.

Media keys not working MacBook Pro 17"

Just today my media keys are no longer working to control iTunes (F7 thru F10). I've unable too check the keyboard settings in system preferences because it crashed when I try and open it. I have rebooted twice and repaired permissions.

I had a eureka moment this morning- Google Play Music basically hijack my media keys. So long as Chrome is open, the keys seem to be wired to the play store (they work normally, skipping, pausing and playing). If I quit Chrome, the keys work as normal with iTunes, opening and moving through the tracks.
I don't know whether this information helps but it certainly seems to answer my problem.

Media Keys not working

For some reason my media keys (play/pause/fwd/rwd) on my aluminiu keyboard have stopped working.
When I first got the keyboad they didn't work... I installed KeyboardSoftware1.2 and they started working.
But, I'm not sure when or how, they have stopepd working again.
All the other keys (Expose, Brightness etc) work fine.
I have tried reinstalling 10.5.8 combo, repairing permissions, booting in safe mode, repairing disc (from instal dvd), installing and uninstalling sizlingkeys (this allowed me to apply custom settings to other keys, but not to the media keys)....nothing helped!
I can't reinstall the KeyboardSoftware update... as it thinks itis already installed... I tried to bypass it with Pacifist, and this caused a right mess (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2360985&stqc=true) which I still haven't sorted either.
Any ideas??
Cheers

Well...
I took the plunge and did a full Archive & Instal (without copying my files/settings over).
This solved both the Media/Play keys issues... and the weird Save dialogue issue.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2360985&tstart=0
However, I consider this as a work around, as I never really found out what caused the issues in the first place!
Oh well....
The only reason I held off doing the Archive and Install in the first place is because it is quite time consuming, especially with a heavily customised Library folders... and I just didn't want to go through the hassle of reinstalling everything!
Hmmm... at least it is sorted.
I guess I should probably get a new graphics card as well due to that error that showed...?

Satellite A350-214 media keys not working

After upgrading from Vista to Windows 7 the feather touch media keys are not working.The bluetooth perpheral device drivers are also missing.Pl help...

Try downloading the Windows 7 drivers. You can get them from here:
http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows7/download/Satellite_A350_32_cae.htm
The buttons are controlled by Toshiba Value added software. There is a bluetooth stack you may need to install. You may want to add the rest of the windows 7 drivers. The display and sound drivers will give you additional HDMI support that the native driver does not support.
Good luck

Media keys not working with iTunes 12.0.1

MacBook Pro, 15" Mid-2010
Software: OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
iTunes: 12.0.1.26
Hello, ever since I upgraded to OS X Yosemite/iTunes 12 back in October I have been unable to use the back, forward, and play/pause buttons with music playback on iTunes. I've tried an SMC reset with no luck and I'm not really sure what to look for in keyboard settings that might help. Thanks in advance!

Sk-2061 Keyboard Multi-media keys not working on windows media player

I have an HP ENVY Recline 27-k150xt TouchSmart All-in-One CTO Desktop PC that came with the SK-2061 keyboard. The problem is like i said in my subject. However, I have also tried restarting the HID services and setting them to automatic which I read helped with the volume keys...that did not fix my multimedia keys.
All that i can do with the MM keys is when I have the player active i can press the play/pause button and then the play/pause button on the player is selected but I still have to hit the space bar to "press" the button.
I need to be able to pause and play the media player while in a document (i'm transcribing some audio files).
Thanks!

Ha! Nevermind I figured it out. For anyone else who is a dingbat just hit the function key and f7...man i feel dumb

Overdrive Media console not working with iTunes when transferring audio books. Any suggestions?

Overdrive Media console not working with iTunes when transferring audiobooks. Some parts don't transfer.

Robin, I have the 4S too. Here's wha I've been doing. Well, I am downloading wma books, but it is super time consuming and annoying. First, shut off genius in your preferences in iTunes. Also change to spoken podcast for speed. Then, you start to transfer from Overdrive. It will create a playlist with your book title. Open up books though because you need to keep an eye on it. It may download like three parts and then you may have a grey one. When you get the grey, cancel the transfer, delete the greyed part, exit iTunes, re-enter iTunes, and then try to download the remaining book parts. I usually have to re-enter iTunes three or four different times during a book. When your book is downloaded, all black and none grey, open up the playlist folder and double check that all parts made it in there. If not, carry them from the books folder to the playlist and then move it into numerical order.
Re non bookmarking problem. I now have a new habit of checking what part I am on before i shut off my phone or switch to another book. It does save where you were, it just doesn't show you. For instance, if I start part three and then play music, and then go back to the book playlist, it will appear as if we are back to the beginning, but if I go to part three, it will start up from where I was. So, just start checking and then it is easy. I am flabbergasted that no other proper solution has been offered by Overdrive. This has been a problem since October. I also wish they would acknowledge the problem on their website as well as post what version number of update they have. I have 3.2.1.0 and think that's current. Does anyone have newer than this. Good luck, and happy commuting!
An easy, quick workaround is to plug external speakers into your laptop and take it with you in the car. A bit unwieldy, but I can't commute without books.

My volume key not working volume increase automatically, how to mute all audio

my volume key not working, volume increase automatically if i go to audio settings i can adjust, but again volume increase automatically , how to mute all audio

Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comeback again?
If this does not boring back a working volume control, and to rule out a software issue, set it up as new device, explained here:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
If still no luck, you'll have to get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place.

Volume and brightness keys not working with new keyboard on imac

I just purchased a new wired keyboard for imac and brightness and volume control keys not working . i have tried adjusting keyboard settings. I have software version 10.5.8. Do I need to upgrade software. Thank you for any help.

Do you have "Automatically Adjust Brightness" check box ticked in System Preferences > Displays > Display ? If so, you can't manually adjust brightness.

Some keybaord keys not working after suspect virus on Tecra A

Apostrophe, delete, semicolon and end keys not working after a suspected virus attack. I found record of the same problem on the net but apparently this guy fixed his problem after he found scroll lock or num lock on.
This is not the case here but there is something going on with numlock - register shows 2 and not 0. change to 0 but when reboot back to 2 again.
Suspect changed back by bios. I thought i couldnt get to bios because DEL key not working but found ESC works.
Tried to reset default values for bios but then cannot save and exit as this required the END key to work.
I was running XP at the time of the (suspected) attack and could not rectify the problem so put the computer back to the OEM status which i hoped would help - it did not, same problem so rather than install all the software on the computer again with XP i upgraded to Windows7 - fresh install.
Still keys do not work - it was a real pain to start with as my computer was set up to ctl+alt+del to log in and i had to do this with on screen keyboard - XP - this also showed that numlock was on before and after windows boot.
The reason i suspect a virus - my wife was watching one of her tv shows on line from home country (another toshiba laptop) and i needed to use that laptop for something else so i asked her to use mine - later on we turned the laptops off and in the morning turned tham back on again, the other laptop with AVG virus protection flagged several hits and this one with (FAMOUS and completely up to date) Norton flagged nothing - once i got into it using on screen keyboard.
Problems with this computer was found after scanning with a different antivirus.
Anyway - i am left with 4 keys that do not work on my keyboard (actually they did work after i logged into the computer for the first time but i had to hold them in for a long time - and then next time i rebooted, not work at all and havent ever since)
Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated, i have been working on this all weekend with no joy at all.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Xardas,
I have essentially done both - tried Toshiba OEM status found on a small partition of the toshi hard drive - no good - then did a fresh install of Windows 7 - still no good
You know - as cunning as it sounds - i cannot reload the default settings in BIOS as it requires the END key to work so i can Save & Exit - all i can do is Exit Without Save - i sort of feel snookered at the moment.
Toshiba got back to me today and said that i have tried everything they would have (yeah for sure) and to take my machine into a service centre for a hardware check - yeah right on boys!
Check out this guys post below found on Kioskea.net - getting close to a year ago...

Hi there, I was hoping that you might be able to help me with the problem that I seem to be having with my Toshiba Satellite Laptop Keyboard too. For a few days now I havent been able to use a few of the keys on my keyboard, including (1) delete (the backspace key is still working though), (2) colon/semicolon, (3) apostrophe/quotation marks and (4) end (the home and PgUp and PgDn keys are still working though). Any suggestions?
Identical to my problem....obviously this guy had the same problem as well...see below - same thread.
yab - Feb 9, 2010 4:47am GMT
hi did you ever figure this out? i have the same exact problem...
However, i was not able to solve my problem the way this guy did - my scroll lock is not activated - it seems to work ok (on and off) i tested it using Excel to move around the cells.
yab ms ml - Feb 9, 2010 7:57am GMT
Nevermind. For me it was scroll lock. My apostrophe, semicolon, and delete keys are alive and working again. I hope you have the same easy fix.
Incidently - never hear from the first guy again - probably ended up being his scroll lock.
all sugestions welcome - sorry my smily face has no eyes -) guess why!
