Thinkpad Yoga 13 keyboard and mousepad don't work

Hello people!
Last time I went to US, I've bought this machine from Amazon: Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga Signature Edition - 12.5" 2-in-1 Touchscreen Notebook PC - Intel i5 Haswell / 8GB RAM / 128GB SSD / WiFi / Webcam / Windows 8.1 - Black
I love it! At least until two weeks ago... after a windows/lenovo update things starts to be really hard.
My keyboard and mousepad simple don't work anymore, totally unresponsive. If I hit "del" to access the bios, the keyboard does work, after that, when windows is loading and fully loaded, I've got only the "tablet" mode.
The only thing that works correctly is the touchscreen, as it only recognize itself as a tablet, not as a ultrabook. The screen also rotates automatacly when windows is fully loaded, so I have to use the tent mode with an external usb keyboard/mouse or type in the screen keyboard...
I leave in Brazil, got in contact with lenovo suport team here, after a lot of procedures, that didn't solve the problem, they told me to get in contact with lenovo US and ask for an original dvd recovery.
Is there anyone with a different approach to solve this problem?

First try SMC and PRAM resets:

If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free diagnosis.
Ciao.

Keyboard and Mousepad does not work after installing windows support software.

I was able to successfully install windows 8.1 64bit on an late 2012 iMac. I went through the installation just fine with the mousepad and keyboard. I went into the desktop and open up the files and went to computer to download the windows support software. After it was done installing the windows support software, my mouse and my keyboard stopped working completely. I couldn't even click "finish" on the download. I turned the computer off by pressing the power button, then turned it back on. I held the option key and the Macintosh HD and Windows showed up. I turned the mousepad and keyboard back on and it was working again. So I clicked on Windows and as I enter the startup screen, the mouse and keyboard stopped working again.
Computer: iMac 21.5 in. late 2012
Used Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit
The keyboard and mousepad that I have is bluetooth.

Keyboard and Mouse don't work after upgrade

Hi, about one week ago, i've made a system wide upgrade and after reboot my keyboard and mouse stopped working. My hard disk is encrypted and without keyboard i remain at the prompt which asks my password to unlock the encrypted partitions. So i don't even arrive to login manager. I tried all the solutions i could find but none of them worked for me. I saw similar posts on the forum and i'm sorry if i'm posting it in wrong place.
Here is my Xorg.0.log file, it seems like because of hotplugging, xorg disables mouse and keyboard but i couldn't disable hotplugging with the given methods like adding flag to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection
I 've installed/deleted xf86-input-keyboard/mouse and reinstalled xf86-input-evdev etc and it didn't work.
I tried to downgrade to different versions of kernel, i didn't work.
There are "00-keyboard.conf" "10-evdev.conf" "10-quirks.conf" "50-synaptics.conf" files under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
So i don't know what to do else, i hope someone can help me.

Post the module names that that finds here. Also, look in your initrd for modules for the LPC bus driver. It does not exist in mine.

But, my keyboard and touchpad don't exist in the ISA bus address space. Things that used to live on the 1980's vintage ISA bus (like serial UARTS and ancient keyboard controllers) are now serviced by the serial LPC bus. I think you don't have that driver available in the initrd preboot environment
Sorry, i'm not good at these things, so which driver i should install if it's the case? (By the way, i added atkbd to the MODULES= and "earlymodules=atkbd modules-load=atkbd" to the kernel parameters, but i didn't make any change.)

Note that you shouldn't do this as a permanent solution, but just to get through the bootloader issue for now, manually edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg and change the relevant lines to point to the LTS kernel (in other words, grub-mkconfig should NOT fail, but that's not your biggest problem right now). This way the entry that pointed to the common kernel should now point to the LTS one.
You can find the LTS kernel files in /boot; the names should give them away. Remember to change both the kernel and initrd lines in grub.cfg.
In fact, i also have done as you told(by changing lines to the lts) and read about the error that grub-mkconfig gives me. It says it's ok, error is not important it should work properly. So i have some problem with my bootloader. I can't see the boot option anyway. Problem must be about UEFI because i remember that i had booting problems also when i first installed arch to my computer. I see all lts and lts.img files under /boot directory but somehow don't see as boot option.
Anyway, thanks a lot for all your help, maybe i do something wrong, i can't solve the problen. I'm going to reinstall my system, because i don't have time anymore. I hope at least this post would be useful for somebody else.

Keyboard and mouse don't work at all in 1 on 2 times!

When my computer has already been started up once and I start it up again, then the PS2 keyboard and mouse will not work, but only 1 on 2 times precisely! So one time the keyboard and mouse are working, the other time keyboard and mouse are not working. The rest works fine. Quite mysterious isn't it? Who has a solution to this?
If the power has been totally off and I put it back on again, then keyboard and mouse work properly.
I have looked into the BIOS, Integrated Peripherals for something like PS/2, I couldn't find it, I have put out several things in the BIOS, but it didn't work.
Now follows a list of everything I see when I am into the BIOS with the standard settings for integrated peripherals.
Could it help to put items on and off here?
Onboard device ->
raid config
on chip usb [v1.1+v2.0]
usb/storage support.....enabled
usb mouse support......enabled

ir function select................disabled
onboard parallel port.........378/irq 7
parallel portmode..............ecp+epp
epp mode select.................epp 1.7
ecp mode use dma..............3
I couldn't find a possibility for a hardware reset in the BIOS. It should be in PnP/PCI. Does anybody know about these things?

Have you tried using a usb keyboard/mouse?
I don't use any usb, only use PS2. Maybe it is possible to use some sort of a PS2 to usb converter, but I would rather like the PS2 to work.

I restarted Windows 8, but now my keyboard and touchpad don't work!

I have an HP Envy M6-1184ca laptop that I got about 4 weeks ago. It's running Windows 8 64-bit. Today, I downloaded and installed VirtualBox and it disabled my wireless adapter for the installation. So, when it was done, I tried to re-enable it, but it wouldn't enable, so I went to reboot. I saw that there were updates available so I chose update and restart. It updated and restarted.
But, when it showed the lock screen, my cursor wasn't there. I tried moving my finger on the touchpad. It didn't work. Clicking did nothing. Typing and pressing keys did nothing, except for the keyboard light key and the brightness controls. I can still log in however since I've got a fingerprint reader. But after it logs me in, everything on the keyboard stops working, even the screen brightness controls and the keyboard light button! I get no error messages whatsoever.
I've tried several hard reboots and nothing fixed it. I'm out of ideas. I don't want to re-install Windows because I have files that can never be recovered, ever. They'd be lost for good. And I haven't backed them up! Please help me!

Hi,
You should still be able to connect a usb keyboard and mouse to use as a workaround in Windows. You should strongly consider running Windows system restore and choosing a restore point before 02/03/2013. That should take care of the majority of the issues.
Afterwards do not run the Windows update in automatic mode. Find out which update that it wants to install and do a Google search for issues with it. You can not have been alone in having this happen.
Reinstall the HP Quick Launch software and the HP Software framework.
If you have Windows 8 Pro as your operating system, then you can use Hyper-V instead of VirtualBox. VirtualBox may have been the root cause.

Yoga Keyboard and touch pad stop working...

I just received my new Yoga and have noticed a very annoying glitch. The keyboard and touchpad stop working and the only way to get them back is by closing the lid and opening it again. It seems to do it when I use the touchscreen while in the "laptop" position. Any suggestions? I am curious if it is a defect or if I am turning them off some how.
Help!

Has anyone ever had their keyboard and touchpad randomly become unresponsive? I've had the machine for two days now without issue. In the last hour though this has happened three times. Putting the machine to sleep using the power button and waking it back up brings them back to life. Is this a driver issue, or? When this happens the touchscreen still operates normally.

Keyboard and mouse don't work. (mighty mouse, wired)

I've been using my new intel iMac for a couple of months now with no problems at all, but last night I installed Security Update 2006-007 and then restarted my computer. Now, the keyboard and mouse just refuse to work. The mouse pointer stays in the right-hand corner and the caps-lock key on the keyboard won't light up. I tried unplugging them and plugging them back in again... nothing. I haven't got another usb keyboard or mouse so I tried booting the install CD, and everything worked fine then, so I'm guessing the update did something to Mac OS X that it didn't agree with?
Anyone know how I could possibly fix this? Thanks in advance :]

Try starting in Safe Boot mode - it does take a lot longer to start so be patient

Macbook pro keyboard and pad don't work after installing drivers. Help!

I just installed windows XP SP2 on a macbook pro 2.66 i7 running 10.6.4. I installed the boot camp drivers and everything from my OSX install disk and now neither keyboard, trackpad, nor usb mouse work. Not sure what to do other than delete the partition and start over. Any help is much appreciated!

I have the exact same problem with the same two operating systems and the same exact computer. Needless to say, I would also love to get an answer to this question.

Keyboard and Cursor don´t work

Hi, my MacBook Pro has some problems after installing Leopard. the cursor is reacting quite slowly (like the keyboard). Sometimes it takes almost one minute until the cursor is moving. Will 10.5.1 solve the problem?

No!
You have some issue that must be resolved before doing anything else with your computer.
Do you know if SpotLIght has finished indexing your drive(s)?
What does your console show for system activity?
Have you used DU to check the disk and file permissions?
Have you reset the PRAM and NVRAM?
There are many things you have to check to solve your problem, but 10.5.1 will most likely make the situation worse.
What you are experiencing is not typical of a Leopard installation and not one of the minor issues that 10.5.1 addresses.
You need to supply us with more information about your problems.

ThinkPad Yoga - Keyboard key stucks - how to remove it correctly

Hi everybody,
this is maybe a simple and stupid question but I won't do anything wrong.
One of my keyboard keys does not work correctly, I think there is something under the key which is blocking because when I press the key I feel a stronger resistance than on the other keys. Sometimes I need to press the key 3 or 4 times before the letter is written - realy annoying
Obviously I should remove the key and clean it or remove whatever is under the key. Since my ThinkPad Yoga is quite new I don't want to damage it or lose my warrenty through "learning by doing"...
So can anybody tell me how to remove a key from the ThinkPad Yoga keyboard correctly and reassemble it correctly as well? -> without any damage
Reagards,
Ben

Thanks for the link, but don't you think there is a possibility to remove a single key and not the whole keyboard?
I found this video for "ThinkPad keyboards" - however, like you mentioned the lift and lock keyboard is probably a special case.
Does anyone know if the method from the video works for the TP Yoga also?

Drops of sweat on Keyboard Thinkpad Yoga Keyboard

Hey guys, after some excersize, I got on my laptop and had a few drops of sweat land on the keyboard and trackpad.
I turned the laptop off shortly after, this was 6:30pm yesterday and now at 7:00 am some of the keys are still acting wonky.
I gotta say I am very worried as this is my school laptop. At the same time I thought the Thinkpad Yoga keyboard was spill resistant.
What can I do to remedy this situation. Again I didn't even spill anything. Just had some drops of sweat on the keyboard
Solved!

Hi Edo101,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with keyboard on your ThinkPad Yoga.
Liquid sweats will be having sticky hence if it dried also it won’t work properly, you can clean the keyboard using isopropyl to a soft cloth and wipe it gently on keyboard and wherever you can find the stain, if the issue still persists then you have visit nearby service center for further assistance.

Macbook frozen keyboard and mousepad

Anyone have a fix for a frozen keyboard and mousepad. The external mouse works, but the integrated stuff (KB and MP) don't. HELP!

I went through this for about 2 months. Finally visited the Genius bar. After 3 visits they determined it was the top casing and/or logic board. We discovered this by opening the console log. You can do this by using spotlight and entering "console" click and open console and the running error log will display. Then check to see if you have usb errors. These errors were showing up because the internal usb connection that connects the keyboard and mouse pad were breaking down intermittently. If that's whats' there, then you need them to replace the top casing.

Wireless keyboard function keys don't work even though updated

Hi,
like i read in different threads, many others had this problem too.
The function keys of my bluetooth keyboard (aluminium 2009) don't work even though i did firmware update for mighty mouse AND the keyboard firmware update. I also unset the option 'use function keys with fn......' option in system preferences. I also tried disconnecting and connecting the device. In system profiler the entry says it is (still) firmware version 80.
What can i do?
I'm thankful for any hint.
Best, Jörg

wrote this in another thread, but it is relevant here, too.
Wanting to buy a keyboard and reading this thread (and others), I went to a local Best Buy. They had quite a few of the wireless keyboards out. They had MC184LL(A) models and (B) models.
ALL of the (A) models worked perfectly with the iPad (typing, brightness, volume, ipod functions, etc).
NONE of the (B) models worked other than basic typing.
They had a stack of maybe 50 new wireless keyboards on the shelf. All but two of them were (B) models.
I bought one of the two (A) models. It is working perfectly on my iPad.

[SOLVED] Poweroff, suspend and hibernate don't work

I installed Archlinux on my work desktop on Monday and can't get poweroff, suspend and hibernate to work. The command `systemctl poweroff` sort of works, except it doesn't actually turn off the computer. Suspend and hibernate don't work at all, the computer hangs on the terminal with a cursor on the top left corner of the screen. Here is the log from `journalctl`. There doesn't seem to be any error messages in it, as far as I can see.

Thank you for your replies. Shutdown now doesn't turn the computer off either. About the type of system, I think it was custom built. This is a new install from Monday, so I didn't update the kernel. Poweroff, suspend and hibernate have never worked. The requested output:

Keyboard and Trackpad just stopped working completely

Hi, I'm on a MBP 2.4 GHz running 10.4.11. Beginning yesterday my keyboard and mouse completely stopped working. This happened twice. The first time I got them working again with a hard shut down, the second time I got them working by closing the screen, putting the computer in standby. When I opened the thing back up, everythign was working.
Today, though, when the keyboard and trackpad quit, I've been unable to get them working again.
My problem is similar to the ones experienced here by MBP 2.4 and MB Air owners:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7194888
With the difference being that I'm on Tiger, not Leopard and I can't get the key or pad to respond at all. The solutions offered at that thread don't work for me.
I've plugged in an external keyboard and mouse and those work fine.
Any help you can offer is appreciated.
Luke Baumgarten

Related to the keyboard and mouse or trackpad not working, I've found of late that the whole lot freeze up and that wretched spinning timer takes over ad infinitum. Only way out is to hold pwr button the customary 6-8 seconds, then re-start with pwr/option.
Problem could be related to (Apple) upgrades as it's after a new one that this problem creeps in.
Makes me want to either revert to Factory settings or, Heaven forbid, give this MacBook Pro the float test and go back to Microsoft or even dig out the old steam typewriter.
The latter may be the best option - my life has definitely NOT improved since I invested in this heap of junk and the almost daily offerings of wonderful software by Apple are now set up for Spam, they're such a waste of time...
So, that's my Sunday moan.
If I leave this thing alone while I make a cup of tea I'll find it frozen again by the time I come back - any help on this from anyone??? (Steam being a bit pricey these days)
