XE4100 keyboard stuck, a lot of beeps

Hi..
My Omnibook XE4100 (1200mhz, 300+ ram) have some keyboard keys stuck: "?" "left arrow" and "-"..i tried to clean the keys but the problem seems to be a faulty keyboard (i use Sharpkeys to redefine those keys to empty function)...but before i purchased a new keyboard..i need to be sure if the laptop beeps is from the faulty keyboard.
-The beeps only start after Bios post (so it´s not a bios beep)..a gray bar from Windows XP appears and while the bar is being filled up, the laptop beeps a lot (like 20/30beeps), but right after the Windows XP logo appears, there are no beeps and the laptop works 100% (beside the keys stuck).
I recently replaced RAM and the Hard drive, reinstalled XP twice..the problems are the same.
I never eared such beeps in my life..i´m affraid that i purchased a new keyboard, but the beeps and keys stuck continue.

Hi.
Open System Preferences > Sound then select the Sound Effects tab.
Deselect: Play user interface sound effects

Large tabular cube w/ lots of measures -- keyboard stuck

hi folks,
I was wondering if anyone has seen this weird behavior: on fairly large tabular cubes (SSAS 2012 SP2), with lots of calculations, the keyboard seems to be stuck, one cannot type or make any modifications to any measures, even after closing a project.
The only workaround is to completely restart the machine. Using Visual Studio 2010 Shell.
Are there any possibly corruptions or calc limitations that one should be aware of?
Notable that this never happens with any small cubes, but just with the largest cube that we have, that has probably tens of calcs.
any thoughts are much appreciated,
Cos

Hi Cos2008,
According to your description, your keyboard get stuck when processing a huge tabular. However, it works properly when processing a small tabular. Right?
In this scenario, I think the keyboard stuck you mentioned should be the entire machine stuck. Since this only happens for big tabular, I guess it should be caused by lack of hardware resource. Please reserve enough disk space for the .cub file. And
set the memory configuration for SSAS engine and SQL instance:
Server Properties (Memory Page)
Memory Properties
Also please refer to a white paper below to optimize your SSAS tabular.
Performance Tuning of Tabular Models in SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services

Why does my iPhoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of times to the point where I have to force quit it and how do I fix it?

Why does my iphoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of the times when I try to exit it to the point where I have to "force quit" it and how do I fix the problem that causes it?

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
does this only happen when you try to quit iPhoto?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

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?
Did you find a post awesome? A great response? Kudo them!

From the Safari menu bar, select

Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

If it is giving a single beep every two seconds, then it is not seeing any of the memory. You could try taking the back off, remove the memory module and reinsert to see if that corrects the problem. Or just take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs do that for you.
If you are uncertain about working on the memory modules, you can find on-line videos for doing so at OWC, http://www.macsales.com where you can see the procedure for your year, make and model of MacBook Pro.

On screen Keyboard stuck under menu bar

On one of my GB songs when I select window> Keyboard, to get the onscreen keyboard to show, half of it is running off the top of my screen under the menu bar. I cannot click and drag it down so I can use it. It allows me to stretch it to the right but I cant click on a part of it that allows me to move it/re-position it on screen. The position it is in now will not allow me to use it.
Help Please.
Paul

Hey thanks a lot! It was very nice of you. I have noticed that you help a lot of people with GB in these forums. Every time I search these forums I see your name helping out someone. You should be commended:)
Back to the topic at hand, After reading your post I tried something and it worked. What was happening is when I recorded or worked on something on my 17" MacBook Pro and then brought it over to my G5 with regular (non widescreen format) dual displays it was forcing the keyboard off the screen. So I tried opening the file on the MBP and moved the keyboard way down to the bottom, saved, moved the file to the G5, and when I opened it the keyboard was in the middle. Problem solved.
You learn something new everyday. And I am sure this will happen to someone else and hopefully they will search these forums and find this post for a solution.
Thanks Again,
Paul

[sort of SOLVED] keyboard stuck after first pacman call

Hi
I installed arch using a CD. The next thing i did was
pacman -Syu
Now I can't log in since the keyboard does not work any more. It does work in the grub menu I get before the login prompt. Is this a known problem. Are there any system files which might give me a hint what is going wrong. Would you suggest to simply redo the installation procedure?
Thanks in advance,
Keen

I did.
Same effect.
I am a bit confused anyway. The only reason I used this "old" cd was, the up-to-date iso I downloaded did not work as live cd. I got the error message:
arch linux unknown keyword in configuretion file: IPAPPEND
and then the bootup did stuck
Which seems to be a known bug. I do not understand why there is no newer release than the one from June 2010.
I did not check the MD5 sum so I will give it another try. And check it this time

Keyboard stuck on Caps

My MacBook keyboard is stuck on caps and if I press comma or full stop I get < and >. Im speaking to apple & they tellin me it has to be collected to be fixed!! Surely its a matter of just changing settings or something? Please help!!

BeebsK:
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Whether the problem your issue is hardware or software related we cannot determine remotely. Apparently neither can Apple. If there is an Apple Store in your vicinity you may want to make an appointment at the Genius Bar. If not you will need to follow the directions given by Apple.

Keyboard stuck on middle of page

My keyboard is stuck on the middle of the page. How do i move it down again?

Press and hold the 'keyboard' key at the bottom right of the keyboard and after a second or so you should get a popup - slide your finger up to the Dock option and remove your finger and it should move back to the bottom of the screen.
You can turn off the ability to move (and split the keyboard into two halves) via Settings > General > Keyboards > Split Keyboard 'off'

Spotlight keyboard stuck W/iOS 8 iPad

When I swipe down to bring up Spotlight the keyboard comes up in the right side of the screen in what is, to it, portrait mode, even though the device is in landscape mode... When I rotate the device the background rotates as it should but the keyboard remains stuck.
i say this in another app so it's likely not Spotlight and is a larger problem.
I tried to include a link to am image to illustrate the problem but my iPad can't enter text in the URL box, another issue. Also Apple wants me to select a category but none apply to my issue. This is pretty annoying.

Hi Mr. Fazookus,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I can understand your frustration if your iPhone orientation and keyboard are not functioning as expected. The first thing I would suggest in this situation is a reset. Please use the following article for instructions on how to reset your iPhone. Please be sure to let me know if you need further assistance.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
Have a great day,
Joe

Keyboard stuck using shortcuts

Hello all,
I am currently using a MacBook OSX 10 and my keyboard seems to be stuck using shortcut keys only.
I am using an external keyboard right now but would like to be able to just use my keyboard on the Mac.
I disabled the command, option, alt, and control keys in the system preferences, but the keyboard still only acts as shortcut keys.
The keyboard as mouse is also not on.
Thanks for the help!

Then, you're using a nonstandard combo. According to Safari->Debug->Keyboard & Mouse Shortcuts->*Cmd+/->Show/Hide Status Bar* as noted by nerowolfe. What happens when you use CMDCNTLD?
To activate the Debug menu, type (or copy) this command into the Terminal app, hit the return key, and relaunch Safari:
*defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeInternalDebugMenu 1*
To turn it off, use:
*defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeInternalDebugMenu 0*
