Satellite A60: keyboard doesn't work, recovery DVD can't run

Hello,
I have a serious problem with my A60: the keyboard doesn't work any more. I have tried a lot of solutions and the last one, recovery with the Product Recovery DVD-ROM doesn't work, because I can't use the keyboard!!
When the screen with the 3 choices appears, I have no possibility to answer!!
Have somebody an idea???
Thanks a lot for your answer.

They keyboard might not be the problem or it might not be connected properly to the motherboard the best thing to do is take it to a service centre it shouldn't cost you anything, if it is still under warranty...but if it is just the keyboard and your laptop is out of warranty then it should cost you more than 100-200....can't say how much exactly because I have no idea.

    What OS X are you running and do you have USB or Wireless input devices...?
    For wireless devices, take a look at > Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues
    USB keyboards and mice generally don't have connection issues, but they and there cords do occasionally go bad.

  • Satellite L10 - keyboard doesn't work correctly

    Hello
    I have problem with my keyboard. I install Windows XP from recovery CD and make updates form Windows Update. Sometimes when I write something ex 1234567890, I see on the screen 123567890 or 123456790.
    I took the laptop to the service and they said everything is OK, but for me it`s not!!
    What is wrong with it, can someone tell me ??
    Thanks

    Just small update: I have also heard when MSN search bar is installed the CPU activity goes permanently up and down between 2 and 20 % and if you pres the keyboard key in this moment when the CPU activity goes to higher percent it can happen that the key will not be displayed.
    As I said it should be fixed with new BIOS.
    Bye and good luck!

  • Problem with XP Pro sp1 install - keyboard doesn't work - MBP

    After using bootcamp to repartition the HD and rebooting with an xp pro sp1 cd, the blue windows installer loads and runs fine up to where you need to press the enter button to install windows or F3 to exit. At this point, the keyboard doesn't work at all and I have to push the power button. I also can not load osx or the osx boot disc, but the xp disc still loads fine. Currently working on slipstreaming a w/ sp2 to see if this will fix the problem. Prior to bootcamp, I upgraded osx and my firmware. Anyone else encounter this?

    You need to use SP2. There is a reason it's recommended by Apple. If you have a valid XP install disk you can easily slipstream it with SP2, which is perfectly legal and effective, and is a relatively painless process.

  • KEYBOARD DOESN'T WORK IN ALL JAVA APPS

    I think there are a bug with Java,
    but some keys of my French keyboard doesn't work with ALL Java APPS (Solaris Management console...), but work fine with all other apps.
    When I use Xsun, there are no problem, all keys work, but with Xorg, some keys doesn't work. (Only in Java Apps).
    I had got this bug with Sun Solaris 10 and Sun Solaris 11 (6/05 Express)
    This is a very nasty bug, I have got a PS/2 keyboard.

  • Italian keyboard doesn't work under the gui

    I have an italian keyboard on a x86 Solaris 10 installation.
    All the patch available using Sun Update applied but the keyboard doesn't work, it still works only as a USA keyboard.
    Forcing it as a Italian layout at startup (pressing esc and using the boot utility) make the keyboard work in the consolle with the correct layout but under the gui, after the dtlogin startup, the key doesn't work correctly. Every key is "shifted" of one position, so inserting "root" result in "eiir"
    Even applyng the 118966-08 patch as suggested doesn't work.
    Obiouvsly I used the gnome panel to set the correct keyboard under gnome but with no result
    Both the two type of italian keyboards don't work, the standard one and the 104 "ibm" italian layout.
    All this keyboards work fine on the same PC with both WindowsXP and Linux Ubuntu.
    Any suggestion to fix this ?

    The solution was to reconfigure the X-Server: In a console-window I called kdmconfig and corrected the keyboard settings: it was a US-Keyboard. Nobody knows ... At installation time I configured a german keyboard.
    A remaining problem is that my mouse and keyboard are connected via USB and they are frozzen after boot. First when I physicaly detach both and reconnect them they start working in an ordinary manner. I saw a forum entry which talked about BIOS-settings.

  • How can I do Safe Boot if keyboard doesn't work

    iMac frozen at restart and keyboard doesn't work.  Appreciate any ideas on how I can reboot.

    Do you have a wired or wireless keyboard?  If you have a wireless one, using a wired one temporarily might help with this.  Otherewise, it sounds like you have a hardware failure, possibly hard drive or logic board.  In any case I would then recommend taking it in for a Diagnosis and service.

  • 10.5.6 USB apple aluminum keyboard doesn't work...help!

    After installing 10.5.6 my apple keyboard doesn't work, but the apple mouse plugged into the keyboard works fine. I installed the combo update and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

    I also have the same problem with a MacMini running MacOS 10.5.6 Server. The Al Apple Keyboard (wired) does not show up in the USB tree. However, the wireless one (over bluetooth) works fine.

  • My MacBook Pro keyboard doesn't work to log in, but lets me type if I'm logged in as a guest. What do I do?

    My MacBook Pro keyboard doesn't work to log in, but lets me type if I'm logged in as a guest. What do I do?

    OK, some more info.
    I have re-installed os/x and applied all of the updates.
    I have tried to migrate my existing accounts and the problem consistently manifests as below:
    1. In a new user account, I can log in and use the keyboard then logout
    2. If I log in to the migrated user account, the non-numeric keys on the keyboard do not work. If I then log out, and try to log in to another account on the same machine, the non-numeric keys continue not to work.
    This would seem to suggest that as the profiles being migrated are on a machine with the same version of up to date OS/X, the issue lies with either the Macbook Pro (other people have also had keyboard problems) or with the migration assistant not working properly given that the current profiles work fine on another mac.
    Any more ideas anyone?

  • Can't set up windows on bootcamp, keyboard doesn't work

    okay, i wait through the agony of the windows install non-sense, and it comes up to the part where i have to set up windows (name, accounts, etc.).

    Jay:
    Below is excerpt I took from [HERE|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461] which mandates using an internal keyboard or a USB keyboard/mouse to install Windows via boot camp.
    Requirements
    To use Boot Camp, you need:
    1. *An Intel-based Macintosh computer with a built-in or USB keyboard and a built-in trackpad or USB mouse.*
    2. Mac OS X 10.5 or later
    3. The latest firmware updates available for your Intel-based Mac.
    4. At least 10 GB of free space on your startup disk (single partition).
    5. A full, single-disc version of Windows Vista, Windows XP Home Edition or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later. Boot Camp does not include Windows. You must provide your own properly licensed installation disc.
    Important: A Windows XP installation disc must include Service Pack 2 (SP2). You cannot install an earlier version of Windows and upgrade to Windows XP, nor install an earlier version of Windows XP and update it to SP2.
    6. Boot Camp Assistant (find it installed in /Applications/Utilities/ on Leopard).

  • TS1277 HI. I have followed all the appropriate steps above and when I try to enter my 'Password' when asked, my keyboard doesn't work. No key press can be activated at all when trying to enter my password in 'Terminal. And I am in the 'Administrator' user

    HI.
    I am having trouble authorising my Mac Air to my Itunes account. I found a discussion explaining how to go go into 'Terminal', then adding a command. I have followed all those appropriate steps and when I try to enter my 'Password' when asked, my keyboard doesn't work. No key press can be activated at all when trying to enter my password in 'Terminal. And I am in the 'Administrator' user. Can anybody offer any suggestions?? ta

    Does the command that you're trying to enter in Terminal begin with the word 'sudo'?
    If so, your keyboard is working fine. When you type your password after a sudo command, nothing is echoed to the screen for security reasons (not even the * that are normally registered in other user interfaces). However, the program is registering what you type.
    Just type your password and press 'return' and the command will be executed (so long as you type it correctly; if you don't, you'll get an error message).
