Stream 7 Keyboard missing keys?

Surprised to not have an "Esc" key, which is pretty standard on keyboards.  I can live without the function keys, but that Esc is used by a lot of program.
Anyone have a good workaround?
(PS: anyone else miss iPad's automatic turn-on or turn-off when you open the screen?  Anyone miss a physical Windows key, which many other tablets use as an alternate on-switch, as well as a way to get to multiple hidden commands?)
This question was solved.

You can change to a more complete keyboard. Bring up the keyboard and tap the button in the bottom right corner (it has a kb symbol with a down arrow.) From left to right, the choices are Default, Split, Pen, and Advanced. You can switch kb's anytime you like, even in the middle of writing.
The advanced kb is nearly complete, missing only the Home and End keys, but you easily achieve those actions with a tap on the screen.

  • Keyboard missing keys or not correct function.

    my keyboards are mess up, esp the sign keys, it is not in correct when you type it. pls help me restore this, do i need to buy a new key board?

    Hi,
    If you mean the characters shown when you use the row above QWERTY that can be numbers and Characters it can be a question of which English version you have set up.
    In System Preferences > Language an Text >Keyboard Preferences Button I have both British and US set up.
    Most of the time is uses the British Set   (As in !@£$%^&*()_+ ) Modifying keys also change these.
    Note Shift + 3 is the British £ (pound)  and Shift 4 is the US Dollar sign.
    If I Switch it becomes
    Shift 3 become the # symbol (which is ALT 3 on the British layout)

  • Keyboard Function-Key mapping in Forms 10gAS

    Greetings,
    Can anyone help with a quick outline of the way keyboard function keys are implemented on the Application Server in Forms 10g?
    My situation is that I have two unix servers, one for Development, one for Production. When running my Forms from a browser window, one of the servers responds to the F8 key for Execute-Query, the other server does not.
    I presume the mapping is done on the server, with some sort of configuration file. Perhaps something's been overridden by mistake somewhere. I have checked forms.conf, forms.properties, formsweb.cfg and frmweb.res, and cannot see anything that might relate to these Keyboard Function-Key settings. I've also tried finding a Developers Reference Manual online, but have had no luck.
    It's bound to be something really simple, but I can't seem to crack it. Do you know what I'm missing?
    Pete ?:|

    There are two basic versions of key mapping fmrweb.res files. Forms is released with a fmrweb.res file that has Ctrl+S for commit.
    But there is also a fmrpcweb.res file that can be used in place of the other -- you just rename it as fmrweb.res in the other's place.
    Both files are simple text files you can edit with Notepad or other simple text editors.
    You can find more about fmrweb.res in the first post (a ways down) in this thread:

    Hi,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Check in BIOS -> config -> Keyboard if there is an option to switch between default and legacy mode.
    If you don’t find that option, you may try the Fn+esc combination that changes the function keys to legacy mode, but when the computer reboots, it might reset back to a default mode and you have to use Fn+esc again.
    Hope this helps!
    Best regards,
    Mithun.

  • Problem with keyboard - several keys no longer working

    In the last few days my Macbook running OX X 10.5.6 stopped allowing me to switch applications via Cmd-tab (now jumps to the toolbar highlighting the first button) and switching between windows within the same application - Cmd-` does nothing now.
    Also, none of the F key responds to the associated tasks.
    I've checked the following
    * Rebooted machine - reseated the keyboard USB into different USB port
    * Screen Shared from my Macbook and tried same key combo (making sure keyboard not at fault) - same response
    * Keyboard & Mouse -> Keyboard - "Use All F1, F2 etc keys as standard function keys" is un-ticked
    * Keyboard & Mouse -> Keyboard Shortcuts - Clicked on "Restore Defaults"
    * Universal Access -> Keyboard - Sticky Keys OFF, "Enable access for assistive devices" is un-ticked
    Still the problem remains. Any help will be gratefully received.

    Thanks a lot for helping. I did a software update and plugged the keyboard in a different USB port. After restarting, everything was working again! Not sure which of the actions fixed the problem, but I'm relieved.
    Thanks again.

  • BUG: KEYBOARD SHORTCUT KEYS DO NOT ALWAYS ACTIVATE A SERVICE (A WORKFLOW)

    BUG: KEYBOARD SHORTCUT KEYS DO NOT ALWAYS ACTIVATE A SERVICE (A WORKFLOW)
    When you assign a keyboard shortcut to a Service (such as a Service Workflow created in Automator) using the System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts, if that shortcut key combination includes the Command key, pressing that shortcut will always successfully activate the Service. No problem there.
    However, shortcut key combinations that do not include the Command key (for example, the shortcut key combo Ctrl-Shift-D) WILL NOT activate the Service in any newly opened application, until you click on the Services Menu option in that application.
    As soon as you click on the application's Services Menu, this seems to bind the shortcut key combo to the Service, and thereafter, that keyboard shortcut will activate the Service in that particular app. But if you then quit and reopen the app, you'll find the Service will once again lose its binding to the shortcut key combination and will thus fail to work again.
    This means that shortcut key combinations such as Ctrl-D, Ctrl-Shift-D, F15, Alt-F15, etc are not really viable shortcuts for Services, because they will not work in any newly-opened application until you click on the Services Menu in that application.
    This bug thus greatly limits the shortcuts that you can employ for Services, because you can only reliably use shortcut key combos that contain the Command key. This is a fault that Apple really needs to fix. This is a very old glitch: I notice it is present in Snow Leopard 10.6.8, as well as Yosemite 10.10.1.
    This bug does not apply to application shortcuts, however, or to other shortcuts in the Shortcuts Preference Pane, just to Services shortcuts (including the Mac's default Services, or any Services you make yourself using Workflows on the Automator software).
    To give some examples:
    The following keyboard shortcuts for Services WILL NOT work until you click on the Services Menu in the application you are using (and they will cease working again when you quit and reopen the app):
    Ctrl-X
    Ctrl-Shift-X
    Ctrl-Alt-X
    Ctrl-Alt-Shift-X
    Alt-X
    Alt-Shift-X
    F1, F2, F3, etc
    So until Apple fixes this bug, the above type of key combinations, that do not contain the Command key, are best avoided as shortcuts for Services. It is particularly unfortunate that function keys F1 to F19 do not work reliably, as these would make great single-key shortcuts to Services.
    However, the following sort of keyboard shortcuts for Services, all containing the Command key, once set up will always work without fail:
    Command-Alt-X
    Command-Ctrl-X
    Command-Shift-X
    Command-Ctrl-Shift-X
    Command-Alt-Ctrl-Shift-X
    Command-F1, Command-F2, Command-F3, etc
    So all the above can be reliably used as shortcuts to Services.
    Here X denotes keyboard keys such as A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, =, \, [, etc.
    Note that even for keyboard shortcuts containing the Command key, you may very occasionally need to click the Services Menu to get them to work initially in an application (notably in the System Preferences application itself). But if this is necessary, it is just required once when they are first set up, and thereafter the shortcuts containing the Command key will always work without fail.
    The above was tested on Yosemite 10.10.1, but most likely applies to other versions of OS X as well, as I believe this bug is an old one. This bug is definitely present in Snow Leopard 10.6.8, because I have observed this same fault in an old Mac I have that runs Snow Leopard.
    I have reported this bug to Apple, so hopefully they will see my report and act upon it. However, it might be an idea if others also report this problem of Services shortcuts not working property, to ensure that Apple get the message. You can report a bug to Apple via their bug feedback page here.

    Exactly where do you want to use a GO BACK "shortcut" in Bridge?  Maybe I don't even understand what you mean by Go Back.  Bridge is only a file browser, nothing more. It doesn't open, edit, manipulate or save files at all.
    Are you simply referring to going back to view a folder that you viewed before?
    Please don't take this a criticism.  As someone who will gladly pay money not to have to learn any shortcuts at all, I'm just puzzled and curious, that's all.

  • Keyboard hardware key not working

    hi,
    i'm trying to set the keyboard hardware keys of my vaio, this is the output of a few commands;
    sto cercando di impostare le hardware key del mio vaio, butto qua qualche comando per capire meglio:
    cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor

    /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event6
    scan code: 0x49 key code: vendor
    xbindkeys -mk: no output.
    is there something useful?
    - i've created the file "/lib/udev/keymaps/module-sony-vpcs11e7e"
    with this text:
    0x49 vendor # VAIO
    and i've inserted it in "/lib/udev/rules.d/95-keymap.rules" without results.
    - i've created a "file" with this text:
    keycode 360 = Super_R Super_R Super_R
    and then i used the command

    without results.
    what i've to do??

  • Multicamera keyboard shortcut keys stopped working

    PP 2014.0.1 release.
    My keyboard shortcut keys (standard: 0,1,2) were working, but they stopped working mid-edit. Restarting the application did not fix this. Mouse works - but what a crappy way to select a camera.
    Any suggestions?

    To answer my own question:
    I discovered that the Multicamera track in the timeline must be targeted (enabled in the track header in the timeline) or the keyboard shortcuts to select a camera do not work. (I don't know how my track became untargeted, but it did.)
    Although I understand how a keyboard shortcut will change the current clip in the multicamera sequence to the associated camera, the keyboard shortcut is strongly associated as input to the multicamera window, not the timeline. After all, I click on a camera view in the Multicamera program monitor to select that camera. I don't click in the timeline to do that. So It's not at all obvious that the multicamera track must be targeted for camera selection to work.
    I find it confusing.
    Do other users consider this a bug or good design?

    Hello Momma4952
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that some keys on your computer keyboard have stopped working. I will do my best to help you out! First, please provide the following information:
    1. The computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your product number
    2. The computer's operating system. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website to determine your Windows operating system.
    3. Have you installed any new hardware on this computer, before the issue appeared?
    4. Have you installed any new software or drivers on this computer, before the issue appeared?
    I would also like you to attempt the following test: Connect an external keyboard to the computer and see if the keys on that keyboard work. If the keys do not work, then we are absolutely certain there is a software/driver conflict. Otherwise, there is the potential of a hardware failure.
    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Form Builder 6.0.8 (Solaris) Keyboard Shortcut Keys

    I am having no luck getting the keyboard shortcut keys to work inside Form Builder (e.g. Ctrl+j for connect)
    or during run time (e.g. Alt+11 for Execute Query).

    Roar,
    the order of blocks does only influence the navigation but not the visibility. However, if the button bar is on a canvas that doesn't show if the focus isn't in it then having teh button block on top makes sure the focus is set there. Are the push bottons on a separate canvas or are they on the same canvas as your data ? If not, then how do you ensure that the stacked canvas gets displayed ? Anyway, running the Form from teh builder uses teh same client/server runtime that is used when running your application stand alone. So it must be something within teh navigation (I am guessing).

  • B570 Keyboard Issue.... Keyboard stuck key issue....

    Okay...
      Earlier in February, My sister accidentally spilled sweet tea (That's right, Sweet Tea) on My BIBB Laptop... After letting it dry for a few days, I found out that the Main Keyboard needed to be replaced, so I bought a replacement Keyboard in June...  However, when I plugged it in to my Laptop and tried to start it up, This error occurred:
    Error: (I Can't remember the number) Keyboard Stuck Key.
    After Unplugging the replacement keyboard (Which is in Great Condition...) I restarted the Computer with my USB Keyboard Connected and it started up fine.... After logging in, I tested my replacement keyboard by plugging it in, and found out that both Shift keys, Backspace keys, arrow keys, and the Number pad on the far right of the Keyboard weren't working....
    A friend of mine told me that it was a Motherboard problem and the laptop would have to be replaced, But now I Don't know what To do now....
    My question is:
    Is there a way to fix this without replacing the whole Laptop? And if so, How?

    I'm unable to find any information on Seacreate.  Are you sure it's spelled correctly? 
    Try running a Windows update to see if that finds a driver for it.  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Update​-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isnt-working-properly
    If that updates properly and it's still not working, then it's more than likely a hardware issue.  Can you check the keyboard cable connections and make sure it is all secure and not crimped, broken, etc?

  • Keyboard/ten key number lock

    I just purchased a TrackPoint keyboard (55Y9053) and Ten Key (41A5090). When I plug the two into my computer the ten key number lock, locks the number pad on the TrackPoint keyboard. So when I go to type on my keyboard, letter keys I,o,p,j,k,l,n,m,, come out as numbers. Is there a way to get these to products to work together without the number lock from one affecting the number lock on the other?  Thanks.

    Hi, Rachel, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    A Num Lock light that stays lit is sometimes a symptom of a deeper problem. Try resetting your Powerbook's Power Management Unit. Does that help? If not, run the Apple Hardware Test from your Powerbook's original Install & Restore DVD, and let us know what AHT reports.
