T440s/fn + F4, F9, F10, F11, F12 not working

Hello,Having installed the hotkey driver (http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds029026), can't get microphone/F4 to be muted. However, the volume keys work ..can mute speaker using F1 , F2 and such. Have got Window 8.1 with the latest patches.  Apprecate any help.   

use Fn+Esc, it combination enable/disable FnLk mode if FnLk mode is disabled you can use simple F1, F2, etc for enable/disable sound, less sound power, etcif FnLk mode is enabled you can use Fn+F1, Fn+F2, etc for enable/disable sound, less sound power, etc

  • Volume keys: F10, F11, F12 stopped working as volume keys.  How to reset?

    On the MacBook, 13 inch OS X Version 10.8.2, Volume keys: F10, F11, F12 stopped working as Volume keys.  How do I reset them back to functio  as the Volume keys?

    System Preferences>Keyboard:
    - this is from Snow Leopard so Mountain Lion may be slightly different but the principle should be the same. If it isn't you need to ask in the Mountain Lion forum.

    Dear Barney-15E,
    Your answer got me on the right track.  I followed the suggestions as well as I could.  Finally I ended up holding down the fn key as I pressed f10, f11& f12.  Each one now works as it had before something happened.

    Some keys don't work as expected
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Speech.
    Click the Text to Speech tab.
    If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
    Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
    Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
    In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
    If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
    Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
    Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
    If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
    Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working.  If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly.  Use Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.

  • Reinstalling HP s3400f to new condition if F11 is not working

    How do I Restore the PC to 'New' condition if my F11 is not working? I've changed keyboards and found that it's not the keyboard.
    I guess another question would be: How do I get the F11 button to work?

    You must start tapping the F11 key when you boot the computer if your trying to do a Factory Restore.  If you are running Vista it would be F10.
    Did you creater recovery disks when you first got the computer?
    Please mark my post as SOLVED if it has resolved your problem. It helps others with similar situations.

  • My sound control keys F10/F11/F12 do not respond at once this morning

    How can I make them functioning again ?

    Stirling Dad wrote:
    Is there any way to either:
    1. make the F10, F11 and F12 keys provide the mute, sound lower and sound higher functions?
    that's the default isn't it? if it doesn't work for you uncheck the box "use F1..." in system preferences->keybaord&mouse->keyboard.
    2. have the sound functions assigned to other keys and leave the F10, F11 and F12 keys with their display application windows, display dock and dashboard functions?
    no. you can't reassign volume shortcuts. if you check the box mentioned above you'll have to use fn+F10 etc to get to them.
    I've tried various settings in System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse, but without success so far.
    Three sets of questions:
    1. Is System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse the right place to be looking?
    2. If so, how should I set the preferences to accomplish what I'm trying to do?
    3. If not, what is the correct application, and what should I specifically do?
    Thanks.

  • Keyboard sound keys not working (F10, F11 & F12)

    I just purchased a wired keyboard for my iMac and can't seem to get my volume control keys (F10, F11 and F12) working.  I've unticked the "Use all F1, F2 etc" box within system preferences > keyboard, and still doesn't seem to work.  Previously I was running the wireless bluetooth keyboard and had no issues.  I'm sure it's something quite simple, but any suggestions would make my life much easier..

    HI,
    Do an Archive and Install.
    To reinstall Mac OS X:
    Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
    Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select the destination disk, select your current Mac OS X disk (in most cases, it will be the only one available).
    Click Options. *If you want to save your existing files, users, and network settings, select “Archive and Install,” and then select “Preserve Users and Network Settings.”* If you want to erase everything on your computer and reinstall Mac OS X, select “Erase and Install.” You can’t recover erased data.
    Click Continue.
    Click Customize to select which parts of Mac OS X you’d like to install, or click Install to perform a basic installation (recommended).
    If you purchased a standalone version of Mac OS X, these installation instructions are in a booklet PDF file located on the Mac OS X Install Disc.
    If you need to reinstall the version of Mac OS X that was on your computer when you purchased it, or if you need to restore all the software on your computer, including Apple, bundled third-party applications, and printer drivers, review the instructions in the manual that came with your computer.
    If you need to reinstall Mac OS X and you’ve been using Time Machine for backup, you can easily restore your applications, files, and user settings from your Time Machine backup file after you’ve reinstalled Mac OS X.

  • My volume (F10, F11, F12)  will not work?

    I can turn the volume to mute (f10) or I can turn it on (F11,12) but it is either on mute, or full blast. i read some other posts and trashing my files did not work. It has a (like no-smoking) symbol! I can't find anything to help me anywhere else online! Can anyone help me figure this out?

    Hi rkoopman & welcome to the forums
    I would start by going in to System Preferences/Keyboard and see if the option to use all F keys as standard function keys is checked, then move the the Keyboard Shortcuts tab and 'Keyboard & Text Input' to see what the F key settings are there...confirm there are no conflicts with your desired sound settings.
    Next go to Sound Preferences and confirm you can raise/lower the sound settings normally there.
    Finally, do you have an 3rd party programs that work to modify the Finder Menu bar or keys....any chance you're using Growl, as an example?

  • HELP! Brightness Keys (F1, F2) & Audio Keys (F10-12) Suddenly Not Working!

    Hello all.
    Just a while ago I was toying inside After Effects CS3 to try and access their own Keyboard Shortcuts instead of the default system's Keyboard Shortcuts (E.G. inside AE, F2 would be deselect all, while in general F2 is Brighter)
    (See this post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1337330)
    Inside AE preferences there was a check/uncheck 'Use System Shortcut Keys', I checked it and was able to use AE's shortcut keys.
    *Then all of a sudden these common keys lost their functions!! --*
    *Brightness Keys F1 & F2*
    *Audio Keys - F10, F11 and F12!*
    Even when I uncheck or turn off AE's box of 'Use System Shortcut Keys' and quit the application, I even restart the iMac and unplug the keyboard, but the above common keys are still not working!!
    These general keys are more useful and important to me than inside AE's, which I only use once in a blue blue moon.
    *So how do I get these shortcut keys back??? Help please*
    Thanks a lot and cheers!!

    Hi all
    Oh dear another me blunder again... apparently I have checked in the 'Keyboard' tab inside System Preferences "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys..."
    Actually even all through these, I am still a bit confused in setting up all these keyboard shortcuts, or rather, setting the ones I need and I would use... especially with the new keyboard that have some "pre-determined" keys already in place... and seems not able to turn them off...
    Cheers

  • 'F11 key not working for reimaging hard drive on X201

    Hello to all,
    I I am having an issue with F11 key when booting up to engage in a recovery of factory partition of Windows 7 as it was shipped from factory, or as Lenovo calls it, Q drive. It is basically an image of Windows for reinstalling as was.
    For some reason unknown to me, it will not work. I get no response.  Can anyone suggest a way to either get my F11 key to bring up the desired screens for a new image procedure, or any workarounds to this? I cannot access this through ThinkVantage either, which is a Lenovo help program. I have not reinstalled any new OS, nor have I reinstalled any previous versions of images of same OS. I have the x64 version.
    I guess I could contact Lenovo and buy a new set of disks to do this, but it is too much money right now without trying something first.
    I really need to reimage my laptop, as my Windows 7 pro has some serious issues that only a new installation (or new image in this case) will solve. Any and all answers will be greatly appreciated, and yes, the Q drive is showing up in Disk Management as around 6 or 7 GB, yet I have no idea of how to initiate this process at bootup.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi greg30,
    it's possible that the F11 function has been corrupted, to check could you try the following please;  from a totally shut down state start the system and you should see a message stating "To interrupt normal start up........." do you see this message?
    If you do see the message it should be telling you to press the blue ThinkVantage button which is at the rear left side of the keyboard.  When you press the button it should then offer you a menu with different options including F1 for BIOS, F12 for boot menu and F11 to recover system.  If when you press the blue ThinkVantage button does it offer you the F11 option?
    Regarding creating recovery discs.  In Windows could  you take a look to see if you have the following or similar, (working from memory here),  hopefully similar to;  Start > Programs > Lenovo ThinkVantage (Tools / Technology) [or similar] > Create Recovery Media.
    Using Acronis to clone the drive will only give you what you have; something may be missing from the boot sector if the above doesn't help.  It may be possible to repair the boot sector which could be tried if all of the above fails, but I confess to never having had to do so.

  • F12 not working on new laptop

    Good evening,
    I have a new laptop as my old one died. This new one has
    Vista on. I know you all say don't use Vista with Dreamweaver but I
    have no choice right now. Dreamweaver installed ok and is working
    except the F12 is not working. I have checked through other F12
    issues on this forum to try and fix it myself but nothing helps. It
    does no work via the laptop keyboard of an external keyboard. This
    is the error I get"
    "local host is no set up to establish a connection on port
    www service HTTP with this computer.
    I tried looking that up in google but got nothing.
    If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it

    > "local host is no set up to establish a connection on
    port www service HTTP
    > with this computer.
    It means that in this site definition, you've enabled a local
    Testing
    Server, but don't have one installed on the laptop.
    If it's a dynamic site such as asp or php, set up the testing
    server.
    If it's a static site with plain html, turn off the Testing
    Server stuff in
    the site definition.

  • Factory reset problems f11 function not working

    I have a pavilion zv5000 running windows xp and im trying to do a factory reset and the f11 function while booting will not work. can anyone help. 

    Hi deadweight1102, welcome to the HP Forums.  I understand you are unable to perform a factory reset. If the computer shows you the F11 option to do a factory reset, and it is not responding, then it is possible the recovery partition is damaged or non-existent.
    Do you have recovery media, or Windows XP disks?
