    At first my keyboard did not work with Citrix Receiver after upgrading to OSX 10.9.5 and I found the workaround by using "cmd + tab," however, once my keyboard work within Citrix, the "command, control, and option" keys no longer work.  Does anyone have a remedy for this?

    Try an external keyboard. If it works, you need a new internal keyboard.

    Hi,
    While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
    Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right click the entry 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard' and select Uninstall.
    Shutdown the notebook.
    Then unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f5, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.

  • The caps lock and p key does not work

    All of a sudden my "p" key and "caps Lock" key are not working. tried pram and smc resets but does not help. Want to know if it is a hard ware or a software issue. Im using a a MAC Book Pro that i bought ony 15 days back

    First assumption: its faulty wiring, judging by this being your first post, im guessing its a new mac? Id call apple or replace it at the store you got it from if you didnt buy through online or applestore.

  • IBook G3 startup shortcut key commands not working with OS 9?

    My iBook does not recognize any of these key commands:
    startup from disk holding "C"
    target disk mode holding "T"
    PRAM zap
    etc...
    The only command it listens to is Shift to turn extensions off. My keyboard works fine and none of the keys are stuck. I've never seen anything like this, what could it possibly be?

    If there's a firmware password set on the computer, it needs to be removed first. This can be tested by pressing the Option key and seeing whether a padlock appears or the command is ignored.

  • Option key is not working on PS4, mac OS 10.6.8

    Hi I'm having a problem with PhotoShop 4, the keyboard shortcut for a couple of tools is not working at all.
    1) The Zoom in and out function that uses the Option Key + Shift or Option to change the Zoom in or out is not working.
         I'm not sure if it's a conflict with the OS or an operator error of some kind.
    2) The Lasso Tool that uses the Option Key for doing a straight line is not working.
    3) The Clone Stamp Tool that uses the Option Key for selecting the area you want to clone is not working.
    Does anyone have an idea of what the problem might be?
    Thanks - Just Plain Bill - 

    It only works on 64-bit Macs.

  • Satellite C50-A-15Q - arrow, question mark key and z key are not working

    I have a Satellite Pro, C50-A-15Q. All keys were working fine yesterday, today I turn the laptop on and the arrow keys, question mark key and z key are all not responding. Any idea how I can fix this?
    I have tried turning the laptop off and on, hoping (naively) that this would fix, but to no avail.

    As Tom already wrote, it is not easy to say for sure if this malfunction is result of defective keyboard or maybe keyboard controller. In my opinion troublemaker is the keyboard itself.
    Have you maybe updated BIOS or done anything that could be responsible for this?
    I presume your notebook is pretty new model with valid warranty so best option for you is to contact nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

  • Key commands not working

    I found an old post about this, but it didn't seem to have a solution to the problem.
    Some key commands I assign simply don't work. They even show up in the menus, but don't do anything (one example, I tried assigning shift-m for Create Marker without Rounding).
    Also, when the key command window is open, typing some key commands jumps to the assigned command, but with others it doesn't (I can see one of the menus at the top flash, as if it's trying to actually do the command). One example of this is command-m which is assigned to open movie. (oddly, getting rid of open movie and changing command M to create marker without rounding worked, although it still didn't jump to it in the list)
    If the function to show used key commands isn't working, how am I supposed to know what's free for additional key commands?
    I'm using the standard US keyboard, standard key commands in tiger (which don't seem to overlap any of the ones I'm tweaking).
    Any ideas on this? It's very frustrating and a big waste of time.

    It's also a pain that the key command window shows codes for the keys instead of what the keys actually are. <<</div>
    Actually, there are 2 methods for simultaneously assigning/viewing the assignment; one shows you alphanumeric charaters and one shows the key codes. But it is true that some key assignments won't work unless they're assigned as key codes.
    I agree -- it's time to either revamp this window (with all of the features you mentioned) or offer an explanation as to how it actually works so that people like us aren't left pulling our hair our because this window's functions don't always seems to work properly. Something like:
    "Hi, this is the Apple/Logic guys. We realize that some users find the Key Commands window to be problematic. Well..."
    and then it could go on in some of the following ways...
    a) there are a few things that don't work properly, such as X/Y/Z... We're hoping to fix the problem in the next release of Logic..."
    or
    b) if you're trying to assign (whatever) to (a function) and it doesn't work, try this instead...
    or
    c) if you're trying to assign (whatever) to (a function) and it doesn't work, please know there's an issue with this particular aspect of the Key Commands window that will be fixed in a future release...
    That's the kind of thing I think we'd all love to see.
    Maybe that's enough venting for now. Wouldn't want to attract the attention of the "venting police" LOL

  • Adobe Premier Elements 7 "Help" and F1 key Do Not Work

  • Satellite - randomly the arrow keys, question mark key and z key will not work

    Sometime the arrow keys, question mark and z key work fine (like now) and sometimes they just don't work at all (like a minute ago).  I will just be typing and they will work and then just stop working, then work again.  They either all work or all do not work. This has been happening since about a week after I got the computer.  It is so annoying.  Can you please help me fix this problem?  I have a Satellite T135-S1309.
    Many thanks.

    Hi, 
    I've posted recently about keyboard problem, and have tried everything as everybody else, finally and oddly :-) the solution for my problem was to reconnect little flat cable that connects keyboard and MB :-D shown in step 10 on the following link:
    http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/Toshiba-Satellite-X205/take-apart-laptop-2.htm
    ..so maybe your keyboard somehow strangely detached itself from mother-board just a bit and started creating all sorts of strange problems as mine... one cable line was without contact because flat cable was not attached properly anymore and mentioned keys stop working... I have also downloaded keyboard tester software that helped me find all keys and combination of keys that stop working ... so guys, try that and good luck!    

  • Satellite L305D-S5881: Touchpad and FN keys do not work after Win 7 installation

    I have recently installed windows 7 and all of a sudden yesterday my touchpad did not work.
    I was not able to move my mouse arrow at all.
    I had to purchase a wireless mouse so I could use my laptop.
    When I press the fn key plus f9 nothing happens to see if it is enabled or disabled.
    I have a satellite l305d-s5881
    thanks for your help

    Hi mate
    The Satellite L305D-S5881 belongs to the Toshiba US series and has been released for US market.
    You will need to visit the Toshiba US driver page in order to get all drivers.
    To get the touchpad working, you will need to install the Touchpad driver.
    Furthermore the FN buttons are controlled by VAP (value added package) and Flash Card Support Utility.
    You need to install both; firstly VAP and then Flash Cards.
    Here is the Toshiba US page:
