Still got 'V' key problems after AppleCare

I had problems with the V key on they keyboard, each time i pressed while typing it pop up in the lower left corner and i had to click it back in to place. I called apple support and they sent me a box to ship the powerbook to their repair center. 2 days later i got the powerbook back, seriously fast, but the problem has not be dealt with. This is what a text file on the desktop said when it came back from AppleCare
"Please be aware that the key board has been re seated but this is a common issue with these units and may return in time but is within Apple spec." and on the proof of repair it states "Reseated Keyboard and replaced a new 'V' key"
What am i supposed to do about this as it is seriously annoying especially when writing words that have alot of 'V' in them?

do to an apple store if there is on close by and they will give you a new key and then you can tell then the key is not up to your satisfaction and they will replace the key till it works beautifully. same thin happened to my z key

  • Still got kt3 ultra problem

    i posted back on saturday about my cd problem.
    i have now bought a decent antec power supply with tons of power but it still will not work.
    the problem is that when i try to use a dvd or cd burner to install anything i get the "installshield setup launcher has encoutered a problem"error. it also will not autoplay.
    i am using windows xp and i can get a normal cdrom to work.
    the other problem is my alcatel usb modem. it just won't sync with the motherboard. it looks like it is going to work but then it switches off and starts again.
    i have upgraded the bios,windows xp and have all up to date drivers for everything.
    i have tried every possible setting in the bios,swopped cpu, swopped memory,swopped graphic card,swopped several different cd burners/dvd and tried 3 power supplys which the current one has 245w combined.
    anybody got any ideas i am totally lost.
    many thanks

    Put your CD-ROMs in PIO mode and NOT in DMA mode (go to the driver properties of the CD-ROMs). Override the "DMA if available..." with PIO mode. Will this fix the problem for you?

  • Boot Problems after AppleCare fix

    Please help.
    My MacBook Pro just came back from the Apple Store 'fixed.' The board was replaced after this issue: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
    When I boot the laptop it comes to the purplish space scene before the login window pops up. It does not go any further. I am able to boot into safe mode. I am able to boot in Target Disk Mode. I am also able to hold down 'alt' and boot into Bootcamp (Windows XP works fine). I am NOT able to boot from a CD. I tried both the 'c' key and the much more complex key combo to no avail. The Leopard disc also does not show up in the available volumes when I hold down 'alt' while booting. I reset the PRAM. I am able to access the entire harddrive while in Target Disk Mode. I even cloned the HD to my iMac and am able to boot my iMac from clone and it works fine.
    I really don't want to send my laptop back off to Apple for another week if there is some workaround. I do not know how the OS X bootloader works but that seems to be the problem. I've thought of reformatting the HD in Target Disk Mode but if its the bootloader then that wouldn't fix it (thinking from my days of the BIOS here so I could be wrong).
    I've searched high and low for this situation today and finally decided it is unique. Can anyone please advise. I'm currently cloning my Bootcamp partition so I'm willing to do anything on any scale.
    Thanks in advance.

    Just take your computer back to the Apple Store where the repairs were originally done. You can always request a loaner if the repairs will take a week or so.

  • Tab key problems after sleep

    I have a fresh install of OS X 10.5.1. After my system sleeps or comes out of standby, the option to tab between text boxes works with everything except the wireless 'join other network' box. I have to manually move from the network name to encryption to password. If it doesn't sleep it works fine.
    Very minor but annoying?

    Start up in Safe Mode.

  • Still got a big problem

    First, please check out my site...this will be easier to
    explain once you see it....
    http://www.ekorastudios.com/index2.html
    Navigate yourself to "Portfolio" and then to "Video"
    I can't get any of my flv files to play, and I'm guess it's
    because when you click on the thumbnail of a particualr video you
    want to watch, it pops up a new window with just a swf file in it
    that plays the flv file. I've been told not to do this (I should
    use html to embed the swf), but I did it out of necessity.
    Here's my wish, please let me know if you can help me figure
    out how to do this...
    I'd like to make one swf file with a keyframe for each movie
    clip to show. I'd like to code the buttons to open up that one swf
    file and tell it to go to a specific frame. That way, everything is
    in one swf file (not the actual flv files of course, I use the flv
    player to call them in) instead of 60 different swf files and 60
    different html files.
    Please help!!! Thanks,
    B

    >
    From what I can tell from your link, the first swf requests a
    new web page
    with another swf.
    What cannot tell is if you intended the second swf to be the
    same for all
    flvs or you are having a different swf for each flv?
    If different swf for each flv file, then you place the
    FLVPlayback component
    in each and simply set the contentPath ( you can do this in
    the Parameters
    panel when you click it on stage).
    If the same swf for all flv files, then you need to learn how
    to pass
    information from one swf to another running in a different
    web page window.
    Based on you novice level, you are moving into challenging
    scripting
    territory both in Actionscript and in Javascript along with
    dynamic HTML tag
    writing.
    Perhaps on design it would be wise to use two frames in one
    swf and dispense
    with the popup html windows.
    Frame 1 is the flv selection page and frame 2 is the page
    with the
    FLVPlayback component.
    Frame 1 sets a timeline scoped variable for the flv url
    var myFlvUrl:String;
    and stops
    stop();
    Frame 1 has a button for each video
    on (release)
    myFlvUrl = "TheCowJumpedOverTheMoon.flv"
    gotoAndStop(2);
    Repeate for each video button on frame 1
    On frame two the action is
    myFlvPlayBack.contentPath = myFlvUrl;
    a FLVPlayback component with the instance name
    myFlvPlayBack.contentPath.
    A button that returns to flv selection page (frame 1)
    on (release)
    gotoAndStop(1)
    > 2) I checked out the docs about FLV Playback.contentPath

    > - Wouldn't this only play water.flv then?
    A variable name can also go there or more generically any
    String expression.
    The variable represents a URL. The variable was assigned
    dynamically
    elsewhere in the scripting such as via a button. Thus you
    only need only one
    FLVPlayback component and scripting to dynamically change the
    variable's
    value.
    myFlvPlayBack.contentPath = aVariableName;

  • Safari problem after prolonged use.

    Right heres my current annoyance with my iPhone 3G, taken from my actual phone:
    http://i35.tinypic.com/1zwlpv9.jpg
    Browsing the web via Safari is usually a joy for the first 10 minutes or so continual use. I get no errors, no timeouts and speeds are near enough as quick as my 20mb cable connection whilst browsing on my MacBook.
    However, after prolonged use of Safari, I start getting the above error almost every time I click on a link or try to change website. If I click on the link enough it will eventually load though. Not only that, as you can see from the screenshot above of Facebook, you can see Safari will change the font and the layout so it looks like the above. Images also wont load. Turning the phone off and rebooting seems to cure it.
    I was hoping 2.0.1 and more recently 2.0.2 would fix this but its still there more than ever.
    To combat the problem, I hard reset the phone, did a full restore to 2.0.2 and set up a new phone profile but still got the same problem after prolonged use.
    Anyone have the same problem or even better, a solution? Im starting to think I have a fault with my iPhone.

  • Networking problem after a zone is created and installed

    Hi all,
    I've got a networking problem after a zone was created and installed on a Solaris 10 box. The box was configured with two NICs, one (e1000g0) with a public IP address, the other one (e1000g1) with a private IP address and connected to a local switch. All worked fine so far.
    Then I created a local zone with shared networking (e1000g1). The zone has a private IP address which is in the same subnet as e1000g1 on the global zone. After some time, I noticed that I could not access (ssh, ping) the global zone. Then after some time, the global zone became available. The problem happened quite frequently.
    Also I observed that: 1) When the global zone was unavailable from outside, it was available (ssh, ping) from another box within the same subnet (e1000g0); 2) If I shutdown e1000g1, the problem was gone.
    Any idea what caused this problem?
    Many thanks,
    Xiaobo

    It was a route problem.

  • Major problems after ICS on my Bionic

    So I've had the Bionic since it was released and have never had any major problems with it.  It wasn't until a few days ago when I woke up to a notice of the ICS update finally being available, so of course I pressed on Install now.  I ended up going to sleep again and waking up later to a frozen screen.  I did a battery pull since it was just frozen on the unlock screen, and after it booted up I was having issues with everything.  Half of my icons were gone, neither of my text messaging apps worked and would force close randomly.  I kept getting random reboots while just staring at my phone, sometimes many times in a row.
    I ended up taking it to a couple different Verizon stores, the people at the first one told me they haven't heard of this problem nor did they know ICS was even out for Bionic yet, the second store was like "all you can do is FDR".  After being hesitant on doing that since I didn't want to lose anything, I finally did it.  After the restore, it hung on the "preparing system" screen for at least 2 hours before I finally did a forced restart.  After that it decided to continue with everything...things were going okay for a little while, until I started to reinstall my apps.  Then I started getting random reboots again, force closes on programs, and horrible battery life.  I decided to give it a couple days to maybe settle in, and well, I thought it was better, but last night I started getting random reboots again and force closes on a lot of apps. 
    This is getting extremely irritating as I cannot use my phone much in fear of it crashing or rebooting itself.  In the time it took me to type this, it has restarted 2-3 times, which is why I'm glad I have a laptop instead of having to type this on my phone. 
    Is there anything I can do to fix this? Or should I request a replacement phone?  I have not rooted nor installed anything that changes system settings, and these problems only started after the ICS update, so it is not anything I did to my phone.

    I've got the same problem after the update 3 days ago. The homescreen keeps closing and reloading - that takes >10 seconds every time. This update made my phone unusable. I can't get to anything because the interface keeps rebooting. I tried restarting it, taking the battery out and factory reset. Nothing helped - it works fine for about 5 minutes and starts messing up again. I can't even answer a call on it because it just freezes when I use any interface features. OMG... Motorola never again!!!
    I'm taking it to the store lets see what I can get out of them. Who is testing these updates? Monkeys? That's what causes people to switch to iphones.

    I'd suggest you follow up in the thread you started in regards to the problem rather than starting new topics:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/24982409#24982409
    If you start a new topic part way through discussing an issue, people don't know what you're referring to. It's also consider impolite to post all in caps in Internet forums, as using caps is considered to be shouting.

  • Hi, I got a big problem. I restored my mac and after I erased everything and started to restall the system, it showed I need to give the apple ID that was purchased the lion. The problem is that I lost my CD, and I don't have an ID with lion purchased

    Hi, I got a big problem. I restored my macbook pro and after I erased everything and started to restall the system, it showed I need to give the apple ID that was purchased the lion. The problem is that I lost my installing CD, and I don't have an ID with lion purchased, so what should I do? Do you sell the system software?

    This is a user forum; we're not  Apple. 
    Please contact the Apple Support folks directly for issues related to hardware and software purchases.
    The particular model of MacBook Pro is a key detail here, as the Mac model will determine the oldest version it can boot, as well as whether it'll boot more current software.
    AFAIK there is and was no Lion installer DVD available.  It was a download.  AFAIK, the last DVDs commonly available were for Snow Leopard 10.6.  Snow Leopard DVDs are still available in the Apple online store in various countries, if your MacBook Pro is old enough to be able to boot that version.
    If your MacBook Pro purchase with Lion wasn't registered with Apple, then you'll have to discuss this directly with the Apple Support folks, or repurchase Lion from the Mac App Store (which will usually involve a call to Apple for a redemption code as it's old software), or you'll "purchase" (it's free) Mavericks OS X 10.9 and wipe and install that assuming your MacBook Pro supports Mavericks.  If you didn't purchase the MacBook Pro from Apple (and it was shipped with an older release), then you'll end up acquiring a redemption code from Apple for Lion, or installing Mavericks.
    For completeness and given you're probably already aware of this, the usual approach for restoration with recent OS X versions is via the recovery boot (more details).  If the disk is wiped and you can't get Lion, then you'll probably end up reinstalling with Target Disk Mode using another Mac with a compatible FireWire or Thunderbolt port and a cable.  Or visit the local Apple Store.
    sputniki: Once OS X 10.7 or 10.9 has been reinstalled, yes, getting Time Machine configured and going is undoubtedly on the agenda.  But had there been a viable backup here, I expect jianghua would have used it.

  • I changed my email address and now cannot play items purchased with previous email. This only became a problem after I got a new computer. The original email address no longer even exists. How can I access these hundreds of items?

    I changed my email address a few years ago. I did not have any problems after this change until I got a new computer. Now I cannot play items that were purchased under the previous email. I entered the password that I used and it doesn't recognize it. I tried "forgot your password" in every combination possible. I never received any emails at the old email address. Now the old email address no longer even exists. How can I access these hundreds of items?

    The old email address may well still be valid as your iTunes AppleID, however if you have no other email associated with that ID you clearly won't get any automated emails to it.
    I still use an old defunct email for my iTunes AppleID.
    Contact support here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/
    You may want to try to manage the old ID here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    Use the original email address and password.
