Touchpad mouse keys need to be replaced

My HP laptop touchpad keys are missing. I need to replace the left click key. I found places to get keyboards or specific keys. But I am not sure where to get the touchpad keys. Any ideas on where to get replacement parts for these and is it easy to fix them once I get them somewhere ?
Many thanks in advance

I am bring this topic back, cause got a very similar problem.
I am using a german keyboard and in xfce4, gnome or wherever all keys are working.
Only in kde the " ´ " doesnŽt appear. I always get a " Ž "
I tried every possible setting in controlcenter or player with deadkeys or nodeadkey in xorg.
Stupid kde just dont care.
Ayn other idea how to fix this?

  • My laptop touchpad left mouse key not working

    I have a Elitebook 8440p with windows 7 professional.The touchpad left mouse key not working ,but right mouse key works well.my driver is  synaptics 14.0.10 090ct09 and the touchpad name is synapticsTouchPadV7.2.
    thanks in advance.

    i had the same problem. what solved this for me was to simply go to device manager and under mice and other pointing devices uninstall the touchpad, i had a usb mouse handy just in case i needed it, but then i restarted the laptop and it auto reinstalled touchpad for me and then all options worked on startup.

  • Replacing Touchpad/Mouse buttons on CQ60- 212EM

    Hi
    I have a CQ60 212EM laptop which is passed its warranty date and  I live in the UK.  One of the mouse buttons on the touchpad is getting stiff to press ie it doesn't 'click'. It will fail eventualy I think. Is it possible to buy a replacement touchpad/mouse buttons (I  assume they are integrated in one unit)?
    Can I buy a new unit in the UK and who would I contact?
    Any information about the part no. or scourcing a new one would be appreciated .
    Thanks

    You could try a Linux Live CD. That would tell you if it's a hardware or software issue.

  • I have a 5 month old Magic Mouse and I want to replace the batteries for the first time but the battery door will not release any suggestions?

    The battery compartment door on my Magic Mouse appears to be jammed shut and will not open, the device is only 5 months old and this is the first time I have needed to open it to change the batteries. Are there any suggestions?

    It could be you are approaching it incorrectly.   It can be a tricky little gadget that actually works with minimal pressure.
    Try turning over the mouse so the compartment panel faces you, optical sensor topmost.  Then holding the mouse at each side but not on the panel itself, flick the small, black rectangular panel downwards.   The top of the panel should spring out, though it may require you to manipulate it fully away from the mouse.
    Once you have replaced the batteries, starting at the bottom reverse the procedure then clip into place.   Remember to move the small switch next to the optical sensor upwards which should turn on the green light.   Then click twice to connect.

  • My 2008 Macbook froze (though iTunes kept playing), and wouldn't turn off, so I had to take the battery out to turn it off. However, it is not turning on. The battery was in condition of "needs to be replaced soon", but is there any way I can start it up?

    Last night, I was listening to a podcast, and my Mac froze. The mouse would not work, and neither would any of the buttons, but the podcast continued to play as if nothing was wrong.  I tried to turn it off and on with the power button, but it did not respond.  I had to take out the battery and put it back in.
    However, the Mac is no longer starting up. The battery was old, and needed to be replaced soon.  Because I have three important exams next week, and I have all of my notes on that device, I was wondering if there was a way to get the Macbook to work again, without taking the time to replace the battery? I've tried plugging it in, but it doesn't seem to charge.
    Thanks!

    Does the unit not run on the charger alone? (take the battery out and plug it in.)
    Try an SMC Reset

  • Satellite Pro M70 - How to activate touchpad mouse by use of keyboard?

    I somehow lost connection to the touchpad mouse. How can I activate it again by use of the keyboard (I don't have any external mouse)?
    Asia ;o)

    As mentioned the touchpad can be disabled and enabled using the key combination FN+F9.
    Usually if the touchpad has been disabled then a touchpad icon which appears in the task bar should contains a red crossed circle.
    Check this.

  • Using Arrow Keys to Move Pointer - Mouse Keys?

    Hello, I am trying to use Universal Access on a new MacBook Pro.
    Ideally, I would like to move the screen pointer by holding the function key (or some command type key) and the directional arrows - instead of using the mouse. Is there a way to map the keys to do this?
    I tried to turn on Universal Access and turning on Mouse Keys, but there are no instructions in the Help section that tell you which keys move in what directions. Anyhow, after confirming that it was on, no keys would move the pointer or do any mouse functions.
    Thank you!

    Hello Saksiri-san,
    Mouse Keys are controlled by the numeric keys which form a secondary keypad in the block: J->1, K->2, L->3, ;->-, U->4, I->5, O->6, P->*, 7->7, 8->8, 9->9, 0->/. M gives 0 and / gives +, all on an English-language keyboard of course. The movement is U or 4 to the left, O or 6 to the right and so on. The I or 5 key gives the mouse click.
    Once Mouse Keys are on, you will normally need to use the fn key as well as those in the secondary numeric keypad to move the mouse. This can be avoided by setting the default option to "software functions" in the Keyboard tab of the Keyboard and Mouse pane of System Preferences.

  • Vb 2012 use regex to substitute specific key words with specific replacements

    I am creating a VB 2012 application in which I have a two-dimensional array containing a collection of specific (but case-insensitive) key words with their replacement words.  I also have a very large series of String variables which I read sequentially
    from a .CSV file.
    What I want to do is to efficiently parse each String variable searching for any occurrence(s) of the Key words held in the array and substituting with their replacement.
    I know I can use "standard" VB code to do this but my instinct tells me that using Regular Expressions might be far more efficient.
    Never having attempted to use Regular Expressions before, but having just spent several hours attempting to research the subject online, I know I need some help, please.
    Any advice or guidance will be gratefully received.

    Hi
    Maybe the key cap is not mounted correctly?
    Usually you can remove the key caps from the keyboard
    Do it carefully (dont use any force in order not to break something) and check if something prevent the button from correctly working.
    If everything will look ok then I would recommend contacting an ASP technician for help maybe the whole keyboard must be replaced in order to solve this button issue

  • Mouse keys

    Hi, my mouse has stopped working. How do I turn on mouse keys through my keyboard?

    If you have preset the option in System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts for the Tab key to move keyboard focus between "All controls" there is a way.
    Press Fn-Control-F2 and the icon for the Apple menu should be highlighted. (You can move to other menus by using the right and left arrow keys if needed, though not in this case).
    Press the down arrow key. This should open the Apple menu.
    Press the down arrow key again until the item System Preferences is highlighted.
    Press the Return key, and System Preferences should open.
    Press the tab key, and the items in the System Preferences array should be highlighted in turn. Once one of the is highlighted, you can also use the arrow keys to move the selection choice.
    Move the selection choice until the item Universal Access is highlighted.
    Press Option-Spacebar which should open that item.
    Use the Tab key to highlight the tab Mouse.
    Press Option-Spacebar to open that tab.
    Use the Tab key to highlight the "Press the Option key five times to toggle Mouse Keys" item.
    Press Option-Spacebar to checkmark that item.
    Then, when you need to use Mouse Keys you can press Option five times in a row and it will become active; press it five times in a row again to toggle Mouse Keys off. Note - while Mouse Keys is active, some normal keyboard functioning (such as being able to type characters) may not be available.

  • Problem with HP pavilion dv4-1117nr touchpad pointer & key

    I was browsing on the internet a few hours ago and all of a sudden it hanged. Tried to shut it down by pressing the power button but it did not work so took off the battery. When I turned it back on, I selected the safe mode. The cursor was moving fine as I used the touchpad but the left key didn't work although the right key worked. So I restarted in the normal mode but the problem persists, & additionally I noted that when the computer is switched on, there is a dotted dragging box (don't know if there's a technical or common name) along the cursor. The kind that happens with left-click and draggin.
    I was thinking somehow the touchpad key is jammed but the tapping on the touchpad option is not working either! So it's a left-key mechanism fault as a hole.
    Right now I am using an external mouse to work.
    Any suggestions that don't involve hardware checking?

    Did you find a solution to this.
    I suffered a similar problem on my machine
    HP pavillion dv4-1100ea s/N: CND8421Lw7 running vista home.
    I was using an application and left click stopped working and cimputer was crashed I had to restart a few times before it would run. I have not yet tried a new driver as I personally think it is hardware related. If there is a software bug issue with this I woudl apreciate HP Tech given some feedback on this problem as it does not appear to be a one off.
    The most annoying thing is I bought laptop 05/12/2008 and the fault occured 07/12/2009 which is a very annoying I am not sure if anyone will do anything to help or will care!
    broken mouse keys used to happen on cheap laptops back in the 95 no excuses really for such and key hardware feature to fail arfter such a short time.

  • Replacement Needed. This iphone is not able to complete the activation process and needs to be replaced. Please visit your nearest apple store or authorized service center.

    Probably will never ever think of buying a locked phone from AT&T cause its one of the worst system integrations ever that these companies could think of.
    The entire problem started when I put in a request with at&t to unlock my iphone 4s (ios7) which did get approved. I performed the entire instructions they asked me to do, which is to backup and restore. After doing those instructions my iphone gave me an error message below
    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
    The SIM card that you currently installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.
    Basically saying that at&t hasn't still unlocked the iphone which a really helpful apple executive was able to confirm. I initiated another unlock process from at&t in order to unlock the iphone, just to be sure that its not something wrong from my end. The nice at&t lady stayed on chat with me to unlock the iphone step my step while I was calling the apple tech too. And the apple tech confirmed again that the iphone is locked to at&t.
    Now, just a few minutes ago I tried another restore to see if any progress is being made and to my surprise I got an error message saying
    Replacement Needed. This iphone is not able to complete the activation process and needs to be replaced. Please visit your nearest apple store or authorized service center.
    I feel like I am just going around these two different "money hogger" companies which set certain rules and regulations to screw a regular phone buyer. I purchased this iphone in USA and trying to unlock in India, is it really this hard to simply unlock a device.
    For now I am going to try to call a apple office in india (apprently we don't have very many out here) and see if they can help me. But any other assistance regarding unlocking an iphone 4s would be helpful. I have however, tried checking IMEI.info, called up apple, talked to at&t (which always say go talk to apple) I do have a case number from apple as well in case an apple executive reads this discussion forum (case number: 566383594)
    Thanks

    You got a confirmation from AT&amp;T that it was authorized. Is this correct? - Yes i did get an email authorization on the 21st.
    Then you connected the phone to a computer with the latest version of iTunes installed. You clicked on the phone's name in iTunes, then clicked "Backup Now". - Yes
    When that finished you clicked "Restore iPhone" (NOT "Restore Backup") - Yes
    Are you with me so far? - Yes.
    And @ Varjak is right that after the 3rd restore I get the replacement error. 
    Plus I have NEVER jailbroken the iPhone. To give you another update, I spoke to a really nice apple tech in India who was atleast able to get me out of the replacement error by doing a recovery mode option. However, the lastest restore still gives me the same error
    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
    The SIM card that you currently installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier.

  • How to use the validation work in Both TAB and Mouse keys in Forms6i

    Hi,
    I have a validation script once it's validated it should execute the query.But using When-Validate-Item i can't use execute_query.I am able to use the validation in Key-Next-Item trigger but if the user moves the cursor using mouse then it's not working.
    How to use the validation script working in Both Scenarios(Tab and Mouse keys).
    Can anyone please give inputs to rectify the above issue?.

    So you have multiple fields, but on at least one of them if it's valid you immediately want to execute the query?
    You could create a hidden field in a control block Query_Now default 'N'. In a WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM on your item, if it's determined to be valid, then set Query_Now to 'Y'.
    In a WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE at block level, check if Query_Now is 'Y'. If it is then execute the query (and set it back to 'N').

  • Need Help in Replacement of Function Modules

    Hello all,
    I am working on Upgrade project from ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0. I am facing problems for Replacement of two Obsolete Function Modules. Please give me a solution. FM's  are as follows.
    1) SET_AUTHORITY : This FM is obsolete in ECC 6.0 and there is not alternative FM present in help.sap.com or any other web portal.
    2) WS_QUERY : Here as per my knowledge we use class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES and methods FILE_EXIST or DIRECTORY_EXIST as per the parameters in old FM. For parameter 'FS' we use 'FILE_EXIST' and 'DS' we use 'DIRECTORY EXIST'.
    But in our program prev. FM has parameter 'OS' i.e. Operating System.
    But there is not method called 'OS EXIST' or similar. Please suggest suitable method.
    Thanking you all in anticipation.
    Best Regards,
    Harish

    Hi Harish,
                       I too could not find any replacement for SET_AUTHORITY
    Obsolete Modules can be used in newer versions, but it is not supported by SAP in case of any technical issues.If you still need a replacement, you can replace it by the source code in the FM SET_AUTHORITY itself and modify according to your needs.
    Below is the source code of FM SET_AUTHORITY, so you can modify it according to your requirement.
