The caps lock and p key does not work

All of a sudden my "p" key and "caps Lock" key are not working. tried pram and smc resets but does not help. Want to know if it is a hard ware or a software issue. Im using a a MAC Book Pro that i bought ony 15 days back

First assumption: its faulty wiring, judging by this being your first post, im guessing its a new mac? Id call apple or replace it at the store you got it from if you didnt buy through online or applestore.

    Thank you I tried the reset again did not fix- I think I am down to calling Apple and paying for a tech - phone company says it is a software problem.  I just updated to 8.1.3  - I thought the update might fix it.

  • I downloaded the new itunes and now it does not work on my computer.  How do I get an older version to reinstall?

    I downloaded the new itunes 11 and not it will not work on my computer.

    Why not?  What happens when trying to use it?
    "Will not work" is useless when asking for help.  Without specifics, no assistance can be provided.

  • I keep getting an error 05 code on my t31 and turning the camera off and back on does not work.

    I keep getting an error code 05 when I try to use certain modes on my Rebel T3i.  It seems as though my auto flash is stuck.  Is this a common complaint....and if so.....what is the answer to deal with this issue.  I have followed the instructions of turning the camera off and back on....to no avail.  HELP!!

    Hi Hydra171,
    The Error 5 error code indicates a malfunction in the popup flash mechanism.
    If this is not cleared by turning the camera off, then on, your camera will require service to correct this issue.
    You may set up the repair for your camera here.

  • F2 and f3 key does not work

    Hello, I have a HP Pavilion 15-e014tx Notebook PC With Windows 10 as the operating system. My problem is that F2 and F3 keys (brightness control) suddenly stopped working today. I restarted it twice; nothing happened. What to do? Thanks.

    Hey, i had the same problem with my Hp 15 - ro14tx laptop. Just go to device manager right click on display adapters. and update the driver, it worked for me.  

  • My arrow keys do not work and the Home, pgup and pgdn keys do not work. The arrow keys seem to be the home key and pgup key. almost like they switched? They do work on IE browser.

    I do not know what else to relate to you other than what i posted.

    Joao suggested already the best way to test this.
    I will only add a link to a previous post with a keyboard test program:

    I believe the thin film of your keyboard connector got loose and needs to be reseated. Either have this sorted out through the authorized service (especially if your notebook is still under warranty) or find somebody who is confident in following some easy guides (picture 5,6 and 7) from this link:

  • Pavilion dv4-1275mx notebook - once-flashing leds @ caps lock and scroll keys @ start-up

    My HP Pavilion dv4-1275mx notebook runs Windows Vista Home Premium service pack 1 for 64x-based systems.  
    Recently, when I turn it on, the led lights @ the caps lock and scroll keys repeatedly flash once.
    I'm not sure what, if anything, happened prior to this starting.  It's possible that there was a power surge when it was shut off, or it may be related to doing a McAfee virus scan or installing the latest version of a software, e.g., Adobe Reader.
    I was able to use my System Recovery disks to reinstall the Vista software, thinking this might "kickstart" my computer into working, e.g., as part of the restart process.  After the reinstallation, I was able to use my computer, although the led lights continued to flash.  However, once I shut down my computer, I have been unable to restart it.  The leds continue to flash upon start-up, and I have not been successful in again reinstalling the Vista software.  (I thought if could get my computer to work again that way, it might stay accessible if I used hiberate mode instead of shutting it down.)
    The computer's about 4-1/2 years old.  The screen has a short of some kind (only turning on when the screen is low to the keyboard, so I use an external monitor.

    Hi,
    While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
    Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right click the entry 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard' and select Uninstall.
    Shutdown the notebook.
    Then unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f5, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Regards,

  • I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key and due to an injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She is using a text to speech app to verbaliz

    I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. I don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key. Due to a brain injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She also uses a text to speech app to verbalize all of her needs since her speech isn't intelligible any longer either. And her vision was significantly affected also, so the keyboard has to be mounted about 6 inches from her face. So to reach across the keyboard with her left hand to the right side delete and enter button is physically difficult and causes typing errors, which cause people to not understand what shes trying to say.
    The best keyboard so far is the Zagg folio mini. I just had to make stickers to enlarge the letters on the key buttons.
    Does anyone know how I can reprogram these two keys? Or where I can buy a wireless mini keyboard for Ipad made for lefthanders with these two functions on the left side. I have searched for days and days. It's sooooo important to me that she be able to contribute her voice again. Imagine if you got in a car accident and couldn't speak clearly any longer, but understood everything still. Thanks for any help and suggestions you all take the time to share with me. I really appreciate the kindness of strangers to help me help my daughter.

    You cannot.

  • Caps lock key does not work...

    my caps lock key was working perfectly up until 10-15 minutes ago.
    when i press my caps lock key, the little light on the key does not turn on and all of my letters remain in lowercase.
    i thought perhaps something was stuck underneath the key, but when i took the key off - nothing was there. i placed it back on and still the caps lock key does not work.
    does anyone have any ideas as to why the problem could be and how to fix it?

    Finally found something that worked for me. See this thread and look for the post about removing the Hitoolbox plist files.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10765093&#10765093
    I removed all of them. (Had multiples) Also make sure you empty the trash afterwards.
    Then restart.
    Then I used the modifier key trick in this thread. Turned off the caps lock key. Then restart.
    Then use the modifier key trick and turn the caps lock key back on. Test to see if your lights come back on for the caps lock key.
    If so, next time you restart it should still work. Finally. This thing has been dogging me for a long time.

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • Why does Caps Lock and F keys log me out of websites?

    MacBook Air 11" Core i5, OS X 10.7.2, Safari 5.1.2.
    Caps Lock and F keys seem to log me out of websites like Jimdo and stop BBC iPlayer from playing video, why? Most annoying. As you can't turn up the volume with out stopping the video and the system going back to the beginning of the video.

    On a Mac OS X system: System Preferences->Keyboard and Mouse->Keyboard(tab)->Modifier Keys(button): set Caps Lock to No Action (or to plain Shift if you prefer). Some people like Caps Lock. They can keep it. Others (like me) keep pressing it by mistake. We disable it. Everybody's happy. And if you're a No Caps Lock type of person, but really want it on rare occasion, just map it back temporarily. Takes 5 seconds.

  • OSD for the Caps Lock and Num Lock is not appearing.

    Hi all,
    I recently discovered that the Caps Lock and Num Lock OSD has stopped appearing when I activate/disactivate these functions. The functions still work, just that the notifications do not pop up.
    All the rest of the OSD notifications still DO work, like volume, ThinkLight, brightness, etc.
    I've checked the on-screen display settings in Control Panel and found that it set to 'enable' with fadeout at 3 seconds.
    I've turned it off and on to 'reset' it but to no avail.
    Help, please.
    Thanks in advance.

    They're not supposed to show up on T400's because the indicators exist as physical indicators on the lower bezel.
