Remote control pressing lower case 'e' launches explorer

Two windows 9x machines, remote control works but when typing lower
case
keys that map to windows system functions, those functions launch.
For
example, pressing lower case 'e' launches windows explorer rather than
showing an 'e' in notepad. Lower case 'r' launches the run command.
Lower case 'f' launches find files.
Has anyone seen this behavior?

Actually, it's doing it on all machines, we are on ZFD 3.2 sp1. We
also
have a mix of Win9x/NT/2000. Originally, the keyboard function did
not
work at all until we upgraded to ZFD sp1. Now it works, but, it seems
like the windows system key is "stuck" in the keyboard buffer or
something. So if you have notepad or wordpad open and you type "e" an
explorer window pops up rather than the "e" actually getting typed. Strange huh? we tried to enable/disable the system key pass through to
no
avail.
Thanks for the quick response

Re: remote control pressing lower case 'e' launches explorer

I have typically seen this kind of behavior when the user has a stuck
key on
the keyboard, in this instance, it looks like the user has a stuck
Windows
key. Have them unplug the keyboard and then re-establish your session.

Control on lower case upper case

Hi,
I have one internal table say it_tab....i am converting this table into xml file....fields of internal table is equal to xml tag, for example i have defined internal table field name as "Product" so xml tag will be Product.....but my problem is that sap automatically convert internal table field name in uppercase....i want XML tag as "Product" instead of "PRODUCT" or "product"
Please help me how can i control this. Here is the example:
data: begin of it_tab occurs 0,
Product type string,
end of it_tab.
so after generate XML file XML tag should be: Product.

using TRANSLATE convert the whole field name to lowercase 'product'>> using offset ( field+0(1) ) convert the first character to upper case 'Product', and modify your internal table accordingly.
dont think there s any FM or direct method to do this.

How does lsmw control upper/lower case?

I have a client that wants all text fields to be in upper case?
How can we control this in lsmw (the only way we are loading data)?
Thanks.

In step 'Maintain field mapping and conversion' is where you define how to convert data. Have you tried converting the text to uppercase here?
Thanks,

Remote Control, Pressing every button 50 times

Hello,
Verizon came a few weeks ago to set up my FIOS TV. The remote is programmed, and the controls for the TV work fine (volume, power, etc).
But when I try to bring up the guide, change channels, enter in numbers, it rarely works. I'll have to literally click the guide button about 50 times for it to pop up. Once the guide finally comes up, it takes another 50 times hitting the Channel Down button to go down one page.
Help please!
Alex
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I would recommend a quick experiment to determine if it is IR interference, a topic covered a lot in these forums - search IR interference. If your STB is near the TV, IR interference can disrupt the remote signals, especially after first activating the TV when electricity flow is higher to get things up to speed or brightness. Take a big piece of cardboard and cover the STB, creating a hood or visor that extends over the front edge a few inches and try the remote. If the cardboard shields the STB, the remote should work better. If it turns out that IR is the culprit, a permanent solution needs to be nonflammable, of course, but at least you have identified the problem. Good luck.

Remote Control - Remove the Confirmation Prompt?

We have some Training Lab computers that we sometimes have to remote into via the SCCM Console via Start | Remote Control. Problem is it launches the Confirmation prompt on the screen and since no one is actually at these VMs, they can't click OK.
How can I disable the confirmation box so when I choose Remote Control it just lets me right in whether someone is logged into these machines or not?
Thanks!

Client Settings allow you to disable the prompt. However, in this case, shouldn't you just be using Remote Desktop instead of Remote Control? Remote control is for providing assistance to a user.

We need a way it can remote in as the local session to be compatible with some crappy Webex Training Lab software that we use. a SCCM remote control connection is the only thing we've found that works.
Where exactly do I find the setting to disable the prompt? I've been looking around but haven't come across it yet.

HT1619 Pairing an old remote control with a new mac

Hi. My name is Roberto. Got a new macbook pro and tried to pair it with a three year old remote control pressing the menu and fast fwd button for 5 secs with little luck! Any advise?

There are steps to pair an apple remote with your computer here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1619
I've been having the same difficulty as you trying to pair my new macbook air with an old remote control.
I try following the steps from the link above but when following the steps, I run into the problem where I can't find the "infrared receiver" in my Security & Privacy. It turns out that my new macbook air does not have an infrared receiver to pair with the infrared output of the remote. Therefore, my old apple remote just won't pair with my new macbook and I'm assuming this might be the same for your new macbook pro. Sorry for the bad news.

SCCM 2012 Remote Control - from Queries

Hopefully I can find out what's going on with my query configuration.
I've created some Queries for my Help Desk personnel. When using the default "Last Logged On User" query, It gives me the results for the user's computer, but when right-clicking on the computer the option for "Remote Control" is greyed out.
Resource Explorer and the others are available and work properly, just not Remote Control. However when I view any of the collections, Remote Control works perfectly. For now, my guys are running the queries, recording the computer name, then searching
the collections. Even as a Full Administrator I experience this. Any suggestions or possible items I have not enabled?
Thanks for any info.
Charlie Hawkins

Same issue here.
I have completely customized my columns it to add lots of useful information from different class and now EVERYTHING is grayed out.
so I tried all of your suggestions, and some functions did come back. not all. However, now the Queries are useless to me. I need to see the model of the computer, last logon user, last heart beat, install date, OS name that's not a number
but the Caption that says Windows 7 instead of 6.1 that makes sense to the upper management etc.
so, I took the original out of the box query that works perfectly fine and once I added "SMS_G_System_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.Model" , it broke the query.
I see this as design flaw of Microsoft and reported to be looked at. or am I wrong?
any ideas?

Remote Control doesn't launch Media Center on Pavilion dv9535nr

Hi, is not big deal, but it's kinda annoying, the remote control (image) doesn't launch Windows Media Center with the top right button (green with Windows logo), I don't know exactly when, but it stopped launching Windows Media Center, and my OS (Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bits) includes Windows Media Center (just in case, version 6.0.6001.18254). I can still launch it manually (shortcuts, etc).
I'd rather use Windows Media Center instead of QuickPlay, because of the Xbox 360 connectivity.
So, please, can somebody tell me how can I solve this problem ??
Thanks
PS. Please forgive my bad English, it's my second language.

So when you hit "Play" it will start playing off your playlist, but no media player ever opens? All I can think is if you are using some super small skin and just not noticing it off in a corner or something, or if you used to have multiple monitors and drug it onto the secondary and now only use one...
The only solution I found to make the hardware work right I don't think I'm supposed to post, because it includes "don't use any software coded by CL" lol. Also I don't think this would be the right solution for you, as it sounds like the remote is working fine with MediaSource for the most part (or I am horribly misunderstanding).

Hi, i forgot my macbook pro(snow leopard) password and i tried to reset it through single user mode, but whenever i type, everything comes out in CAPs instead of lower case. Each time i press the minus(-), it always comes out as an underscore(_).Pls help.

Well, you can try easing the shift key up with something thin but flexible (credit card sort of thing) but if the contacts below are stuck you may need to get it seen to by an authorised repairer.
If you can borrow a keyboard (a PC one will probably work as long as the password is alpha-numeric with no special characters) you can at least get in to backup your HD before going for repair.

Launch remote control via a command line?

Is is possible to launch a remote control session via a command line as well
as the other "remote actions"?
Thanks,

My macbook pro is moving on its own. Not sure if its being remotely controlled or if its a bug but its annoying!!

I have a 15inch Macbook Pro that has recently been acting wacky. It feels like someone else is controlling my computer but all my sharing featured are turned off and i have my firewall on so i doubt its being remote controlled. Using my cursor is a constant battle. Sometimes its fine other times it won't cooperate. At random times the cursor will move and highlight a word and define it. YES Define the highlighted word. While on safari it'll randomly zoom in on the webpage im on, and contiue to highlight and try to switch pages. It'll switch from desktop to dashboard on its own as well as make my launch pad disappear and reaapear. without me touching it at all. SOMEONE HELP !

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
3. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
4. Reset the System Management Controller.
5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
6. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

Device not working after updating from 8 to 8.1: SMK Ehome Infrared Transceiver and remote control (usb)

Hi all,
An excellent 2015 to you all.
I wonder whether it's possible to get my (USB) SMK Ehome Infrared transceiver (which serves to connect my PC to a remote control) to work again. It functioned okay under Windows 8, but when I upgraded my system to Windows 8.1 it didn't respond anymore.
How's that possible? And do you have any ideas how I can resolve this?
I use the remote control to start and stop videos and to adjust the sound volume.
What I have done already:
-disabled and enabled the consumer IR devices under 'HID devices' in device management.
-disabled and enabled the USB controller for the Ehome Infrared Receiver.
No luck so far. Anybody knows what to do?
Cheers,
Peter

Hi,
What is the driver status in device manager? Have you tried to manually download the right version driver for Windows 8.1 from the transceiver's manufacture website and install it in your system?
Meanwhile, please run services.msc to launch services manager, then scroll down to "Human Interface Device Access service", make sure the service is "started" to "manual" or "automatic", test the issue again.
Yolanda Zhu
TechNet Community Support
Thanks, Yolanda Zhu. There is no driver on the manufacturer's website, but the driver is included from Windows versions XP to 8 and the device responds as expected under these OS Versions. In Windows 8.1 it seems also to be included, and device manager
indicates under Human Interface Devices that the 'Microsoft eHome infra transceiver' driver functions correctly and under
Universal Serial Bus controllers that 'eHome infrared receiver' (USBCIR) functions correctly as well. But when I press the remote, the red LED blinks, but nothing else happens.
The "Human Interface Device Service" is set to automatic and is being executed.
Can it be that the mapping ('action on remote' to 'action on PC') is lost somehow?
Cheers,
Peter AKA Django

Design question ... Remote control and keyboard

Hey i am building a system that should support remote control input and keyboard input
the system is a addons based any user could build any addon he wishes
i have now two main input events types
KeyEventand
RemoteControlEventi wish to use only one type of event
i am thinking of 2 options.
1) Map
RemteControlEventto
KeyEventif this why is the best what happens i a situation that i mapped J key to the RECORD button
how a specific addon should know that a RECORD operation is pressed or it's just a J button
2) Write a new events that contains
KeyEventactions and
RemteControlEventactions
thanks allot

thanks for your replay
i am sharing my thoughts with you ,cause i relay want to do it the best way.
when i mention remote control i meant using a TV/VCR/MCE Remote Control.
(i am usingJLIRC ( LIRC ) )
and i have decided .
i will listen to all keyboard event using "dispatchKeyEvent"
and will map Remote control keys to keyboard keys
here is another question to make sure i understand fully .
the application that i am writing is an add-on based
every programmer that will like to create an add-on
will extend the "Screen" object for is main panel (Screen exnteds JPanel)
so i was thinking when dispatchKeyEvent called i should call dispatchKeyEvent in the current displayed screen
(if the screen dispatchKeyEvent returns false.
the main dispatchKeyEvent should continue.
case true the main dispatchKeyEvent will return true)
then in the screen implementation the user can ask if this key is an Spacial Key
if yes he can get the spacial key attached to this keyboard key
i just wrote an example of how it's suppose to be
public MP3PLayer implemants Screen {
public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent e){
    boolean isSpeacial = RemoteComtrolKey.getInstance().isSpeacialKey(e.getKeyCode);
    if(isSpeacial){
        int mappedKey = RemoteComtrolKey.getInstance().getSpeacialKey(e.getKeycode());
        if(mappedKey == RemoteComtrolKey.REC){
          //do the record
           return true;
    return false;
}georgemc thank you very much
