Some amixer-commands are not working.

Hello, some of the commands of amixer are not working for me, e.g. "amixer set PCM toggle" or "amixer set PCM mute". But other commands like "amixer set PCM 100%+" work fine. How can I change this? Especially I want to use the toggle-command for the hotkey on my laptop.
Greets, Mo.

Thanks for your help, but sset does not work . And I am a user in the audio group... So what else could help?

Some key commands are not working

I have a 2010 MacBook Pro running OS 10.10.2.
When I use cmd/shift/4, nothing happens. However, these keys work individually. Similarly, in Pages, hitting cmd/shift/> will zoom the content in the window, but cmd/shift/< will not zoom back out. I've check my keyboard settings and all of the keys are mapped correctly and set to default settings. None of them seem stuck down.
Does anyone have any ideas of other things I can check to restore these functions? Thanks!

Yes, I've done this already. It looks just like your image.
I rebooted, hoping that would fix it and it did not. Also, this started before I loaded Yosemite and I was hoping loading it might fix the problem if it was something simple like that.
I checked the apps tab also (I have no apps) but the only one on there was the "show help menu" button and the keys listed for it are not replacing any other commands.

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys that are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Can anyone help? of course this happened after my warranty expired.

**update**
I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose. In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!). Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind. I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store. But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working.
So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off. Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
Hopefully this might help someone.

DACP commands are not working on Ipv6 enabled Airplay ITune service on MAC book.

DACP commands are not working on Ipv6 enabled Airplay ITune service on MAC book.
As we have gone through the source code(Airplay
Audio POSIX receiver v190.9.p6) in dnssd_clientshim.c file and in API DNSServiceGetAddrInfoResponse has provided the implementation for ipv4 only.
The test setup to test the DACP over IPV6 is by disabling the IPV4
from MAC book and only enabling the Ipv6 .
We are not sure if the test procedure is correct, please clarify the same.

Hi,
It is because of the license. In WS-C3750X-48P-L, you have a LANBASE license whereas in WS-C3750X-24P-S you have an IPSERVICES license.
FDR_SW#show version

In a LANBASE license, ip routing and ip multicast commands are not supported.
Hope this helps.

Some commands are not working nor in illustrator nor photoshop, any advice better than Adobe?

Illustrator is not fuctioning at 100%, some commands do not work ( eg - command open, nor place etc ) and same with photoshop....
Any advice

pcmyhre,
You may try the list, possibly starting with item 7) in 5), which is a list of the usual suspects, which may disturb and confuse Illy so she fails to do even simple things.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
External media: It is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky (for a while), but the chances of file corruption and other unpleasantnesses are immensely greater when you use anything but the harddisk, and it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

Some commands are not working

some of commands suddenly stopped working like reboot ,lsusb etc . any idea why ?..

You can try to copy the content in '/etc/skel/' to your home folder with 'cp /etc/skel/* ~/'. This should overwrite your local bash config files. If this doesn't help, then you have to update the '/etc/profile' file. There should be a '/etc/profile.pacnew'. Just move it 'mv /etc/profile.pacnew /etc/profile'. This should fix it.

Dv6 2190us - some keyboard keys are not working

Hi there all,

Couldnt this be the reason and what should I do to resolve this? Appreciate your kind help!
Thanks in advance,..

also having this issue with 6 month old dv6 3031 but my entire line beginning with a to enter key will not respond so i cannot do any tests or what not. i was advised to do bios setup by clicking F10 when notebook is booting up, arrow across to Diagnostic menu and perform PRIMARY HARD DISK SELF TEST. of course i was unable to do this as my enter key does not work but maybe you could give it a go and have more luck
cheers

Satellite C660-17L - Some TouchPad functions are not working

My touch pad functions are not working:
- I can't use it to scroll up and down
- I can't use it to zoom.
What should I do to fix it?

Yes the model number is Satellite C660-17L
And no I didn't install the touchpad driver.
I Have had this laptop for less than a month, I started it one day and tried to scroll but it didn't work.
Also i tried to search for the advanced settings under the mouse option but I couldn't find it.
When I enter the search directly into the search bar, the mouse option comes up but when I click on it, it asks me if I want to uninstall the synaptics driver.
I have no idea what this means but I click no and it comes up with all the mouse setting options.
What should I do now?

After updating my iPod touch 3rd generation to IOS5 some default apps are not working (anymore)

Hi,
I updated my iPod touch 3g from IOS 4.x to IOS 5 last week and since then my iPod makes troublle!
First of all, during the update I did not see any Problems. After the update, I mean the step where the data will be restored to the iPod, I synchronized some APPS at the same time, maybe that was a big mistake. My iPod makes hard resets many times in a loop until it frozes.
So the only thing I could do here is pressing the home button and the power switch at the same time until it gets rebooted. The sync started again and it looked like everything runs fine.
As I tried to use iMessage first time I realised the first Problem: I am unable to loginto iMessage with my Apple ID. My Apple ID runs fine, I can by Apps and so on. I also enabled iCloud to see that my Apple ID is ok. But logging into iMessage I put in my Apple credentials and Password, click on next, wait 3 seconds and the screen flips back. So this feature is not working.
Next issue I see is that randomly my iPod hard resets itself. Even if I don't do anything with my iPod I can see that it resets itself, booting with the apple icon. This happens minimum three times a day... (Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV), Kern_INVALID_ADDRESSat 0x00000000)
Today I tried YouTube, an internal Application which I cannot reinstall. It's not working anymore, starting YouTube says: Unable to connect to YouTube!
I have no clue whats going on here because email and web is working fine.
In my eyes I would like to reset the whole device to a state before running IOS5 and I would try the update again. But my Question is how to reinstall IOS5?
If IOS5 will not run smoothly on my iPod, I would prefer to backref to iOS4x.
Is there anyone who could help me out here?
Thanks,
Daniel

Found the rootcause. The battery was damaged and unable to have enough power to keep the device alive. After changing the device problem is solved.

Some function keys are not working on my Portege R830

Like others, I have a new Portege R830 and experienced the sudden unexplained loss of functionality of the 13 function keys. My os is a native windows 7 64bit install, with office 2010 installed afterwards. I have the SSD model.
I followed the instructions, removing TVAP and re-installing, and I have both VAP and flashcards operational. I used the USA site drivers for the latest set (the Australian and European driver sets are older versions and different).
Most, but not all, of the function keys are now working again. What isn't working are as follows:
- F12 functionkey not operating
- volume up and down keys not operating - what I am most interested in - any suggestions on how to get functional again please?
also, on re-installing VAP, I lost functionality on ecobutton. Any suggestions on how to get working again?
thanks in anticipation

Hi
You are on the right way dude the VAP and Flash Card Support Utility controls the FN buttons. If you have an European notebook model, I would recommend using the drivers from Toshiba European driver page but generally speaking there should not be a difference in the software
However, in my case restarting the Flash Cards helps to get back the FN buttons functionality. The Flash Cards can be found in All Programs -> Toshiba -> Flash Cards.
So check if restart would help you.
Regarding the Eco button: ECO Utility controls this button tooso would recommend installing/reinstalling this software beside the VAP

Most P2P commands are not working

Recently "chat bombing" has become a big thing for trolls. For example, they get added to a group, and soon Ctrl + A their entire contact list and ruin the group. I have been trying to cut this off at the source by using a p2p chat group so I can use the JOINERS_BECOME_APPLICANTS option and prevent the added members from spamming and increase general security. However, the old commands still do not work. I attached an image showing what is displayed from "/get options" after I tried adding the JOINERS_BECOME_APPLICANTS option thrice. The option does not get added (at least from what I can see with /get options). Is there a fix for this or is this a permanent change? P.S. I also tried adjusting ranks of willing "guinea pig" users to helper and listener, nothing happened. P.S.S. Yes, I used /createmoderatedchat

The "Applicant" role model isn't really working indeed. I recommend to disable joining via link by using the /set options -JOINING_ENABLED command instead and only manually add people you trust.

Some keyboard shortcuts are not working

I have found a few keyboard shortcuts that don't work, no matter what you set the shortcut to. I only found two, and they are "Show Desktop", and "Show Launchpad". I have set them to many different combinations, none of which seem to work. every once in a while, it will work, but after my computer goes to sleep, it doesn't work again. It only works some of the times after I restart or shutdown. When I open the shortcut tab under the keyboard settings menu, it always defaults to the screenshots tab, and I don't know if this is a bug or not.

there may be a conflict with some system-level shortcuts, for instance the shortcuts in the System Prefs for Dashboard and Expose default to F9, F10, F11, which will supersede the default FCP shortcuts for insert, overwrite, and replace edits.
Check your keyboard layouts in FCP - if the shortcuts are assigned, then check those two System Prefs panes (keyboard, Dashboard & Expose) for system-level shortcuts that might be conflicting.

Satellite A305D - Some FN keys are not working

Hello
2 days ago FN keys on my notebook ceased to funtion properly, some of them work, such as Fn+F1,F6,F7, but others do not, such as Fn+F4, also when I pushed the key it used to appear a menu of every key.
I had some others problems so I deactivate everything using msconfig, restart the system and then reactivate as it was, it seems the fn hotkeys did not reactivate properly.
Thanks for any help

Hi
In such cases you should try to reinstall the drivers and tools responsible for this function keys.
Did you do that?
The Satellite A305D seems to be longs to the Toshiba US series.
I know this because of the 5 at the end of the notebook model.
So visit the Toshiba US page and check the driver page:
