Some of my keys wont work.

Shift,backspace,m,p,v,etc. What should i do?

Have you bought a new keyboard to use on a slightly older Mac? The newest keyboards need OS X 10.6.8 for full functionality.
Otherwise, go to System Preferences > Keyboard  and ensure this box isn't checked;

  • My apple wireless keyboard got wet a year ago i sprayed the cleaning spray on it some of the keys are working but some of the keys aren"t working. it got sprayed a year ago What should i do??? Can it be recovered plz tell?

    I sprayed it a year ago i really like the keyboard and i really need it can it be recovered??? My apple wireless keyboard got wet a year ago i sprayed the cleaning spray on it some of the keys are working but some of the keys aren"t working. it got sprayed a year ago What should i do???

    There is almost no chance it can be recovered, except at a cost far greater than a new keyboard.  Once wet, spraying with a cleaner will not do any good and most likely will make the situation worse.
    Best thing at this point is go to your Apple store, or the on-line store, and buy a new keyboard.  Water damage is not covered by the warranty or AppleCare.

    Greetings naseem770,
    It sounds as if you are having an intermittent issue with touchscreen response on your iPhone. I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

  • 'O' Key Wont Work Sometimes

    Yesterday my 'O' key randomly started to go weird; all of my other buttons work perfectly but when I press the 'O' button, sometimes it wont work. I have absolutely no idea what has caused this but any help would be amazing! The phone is 8 days old and uninsured so I need a fix as I can't send it back!
    Thanks in advance!

    Since it seems to be a hardware problem, so would request you to visit nearest Blackberry Authorised Service Station who can look into the matter and can suggest.
    Because your problem doesnt seems to be a software issue which can be resolved online.
    Hope that resolves your issue!

  • Satellite A300-1M1 - cursors keys wont work

    Hi everyone.
    I have one Satellite A300-1M1, and in this last weekend both "up" and "down" keys just stop working. At the same time which is very strange.
    What should i do ? is it dust ? Ive just cleaned the entire keyboard with a bottle of air spray, and problem remains.
    The warranty has just expired last November.
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers

    I dont know what do you want to hear. If the keys are not working you must exchange the keyboard.
    What you can try is to test keys functionality in BIOS settings. If the keys dont work there too I presume it must be some mechanical problem.
    You can also try to remove key caps and clean them up.
    What else you can do?

  • 6500 slide, whole right side of keys wont work?!

    this happend 2 months into owning the handset. along with other glitches that arent too much of a problem.
    the keys (top left one and 3,6,9,# wont work!!!) anybody know what i can do? thanks x

    hi...
    Your phone has a problem with the ribbons...so basically thats a hardware problem and needs to be checked by a nokia technician...
    Alternatively,if the phone is under warranty then you can return it to where you bought it from...(if its not water damage then they'll replace.)
    !!!OHOO!!!

  • My Delete Key wont work

    I dont understand. It was working earlier today and then when I was replying to a message i wanted to delete something and now the Delete < Key dont work. Why is this? My phone is about a month old?
    I took out the battery for about 5 min and still nothing.
    Any help please?

    Are you having any issue with any other key not working?
    What happens when you press the delete key? What about if you choose Menu > Delete?
    Sometimes, a key not working or acting odd, is a result of moisture damage... even left in a bathroom during a hot steamy shower can affect the keyboard.

  • CS5 illustrator 'shift arrow'/cmd shift arrow' keys wont work! (Help!)

    Hi,
    I have just installed the CS5 web suite and are loving it so far, however for some strange reason when I try to move an object or point by holding down the shift - arrrow or cmd shift arrow key, (as you do) nothing happens!
    Have tried restarting etc but to no avail... Works fine in Photoshop and other apps, but no go in ai... Any suggestions please as it's really annoying!
    (Never come across this before in previous versions..)
    Thanks,
    Dean

    It actually seem to have worked for you as well as you cannot copy and paste the settings folder from one version to another since the prefernces are tied to a different folder so if you moved or trashed the folder or replaced it in some way like changing the name of CS 4 to CS 5 then all you did is the same as above since Illustrator just created a new set of preferences and settings anyway.
    So the above actually worked for you once you quit and restarted Illustrator.
    Here look from my preferences folder CS 4 and CS 5 living confidentially side by side.
    BTW if you just removed the preference file within this folder you did not follow the instructions correctly you have to get rid of the whole settings folder.

  • Why are some of my keys not working when I put a bit of pressure on it?

    Hi there, since 4 months ago I've noticed that my a, q, 1, backspace, and volume buttons do not work when theres a little bit of pressure on or under it. It kind of bothers me because I cant lay in bed and do my things, I have to put it on a table. So my question is, why is this and how can I fix this?
    5 or more weeks ago, I can't remember, my keys did suddenly work when there was a bit of pressure on / under it, but I don't know how..
    I'm running OS X Mavericks 10.9.4
    Processor: 1.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memore: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    What is your operating system?  Reader version?  How do you convert to PDF?
    You write that "some" of the links don't open; what's the difference with links that do open?

  • My Windows 8.1 product Key wont work when trying to install Windows 10?

    I found my product key and checked it a couple times and if says it is wrong when I try to install windows 10 home version. I downloaded windows 10 iso and created a DVD of the new OS and it says my product key is no good?

    Cory I have an Acer Aspire XC600, I see by the support list that it should be good for windows 10.  This PC came with Windows 8 and has been upgraded to Windows 8.1 so... I can't seem to get anything to happen, no Windows 10 app, the Windows Authentication doesn't seem to work and there are no updates waiting to be installed... I can't find anything on the ACER site that will guide me through the Windows 10 update process, can you provide some help along with the steps I need to take to get this upgrade started? Thanks,  Al
