Aspire Switch 10 keyboard problem

Hello. I have problems with my brand new Acer Aspire Switch 10.

I just unboxed it - it sounds great - but unfortunately there is a problem with the keyboard. When I press on to ' or 'g', I get ' gs, similarly ' t ' and '4', 'y' and 'w', ' 6 "and 3" and more annoyingly "v" and "right arrow".» I'm typing this message on an external keyboard!, which works very well.

Is there something I can do to try to resolve the problem, or I am looking at a return

Replacement keyboard works very well.

  • Acer aspire switch v10 wifi problem.

    Hello

    I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I looked and that you can not see this problem.

    My friend got an Acer Aspire switch V10 from the EA Store with mobile internet, but want to connect Wifi too when shes at home.

    The problem is that there is no option for Wifi everywhere where I can see. My laptop Windows 10 in the Notifications Panel and the subnet in the settings. But these are not? How to connect to a Wifi network?

    Thanks for any help you can give and, hopefully, im missing not only something

    Welly

    It is possible that it is, for some reason, got the wireless off. There is a press of button (Fn - F3 on this laptop, may vary on the switch) which enables / disables wifi on and outside. In addition, you can toggle the wifi device in network and sharing Center, go to edit the card settings. If it does not then it is possible that the driver is corrupted or missing, open the Device Manager and look for whatever it is reported as a problem. Finally, it is possible, that there is a hardware problem in which case it will not show anywhere. This requires a trip to the repair depot.

  • Aspire switch 10 sound problem

    Hello everyone, I have a problem with my aspire switch 10 sound, there is a red cross on the sound icon.

    and I tried several times to do factory reset and install the updates again it's always the same problem.

    It has suddenly stopped working. help please, thank you.

    It's what worked after some trial and error.  Go to Device Manager > view > show hidden devices. If you have other devices > IWD Aud-Device_6, uninstall it. Then restart your system. Go to Acer supports downloads of drivers for your model. Download Realtek Audio Platform Installer from pilots and quick access. Install Reltek and then restart the system. Install quick access, then restart. Finally install the drivers for the platform. Restart and you should have sound.

  • How can I type the characters printed in green on the keyboard of Acer aspire switch 10?

    My (Northern) keyboard on my Acer Aspire switch 10 has some characters printed in green. This includes the backslash character I need desperately. However, I can't find any information in the manual or elsewhere about access (type) these characters. Help, please!

    I tried now. With the help of the button Fn-type only the characters printed in blue. The backslash is printed in green, as is the Danish æ and 0-slash (o). Explaining the problem to my wife, she wanted to give it a go. And to my surprise it resolved in less than a minute. I had missed that the backslash WAS ALSO printed in white on the same key as + and? so, to be able to type it, all I have to do is pressed the Alt - Gr key pressing this key. Stupid of me to do not see it the first time around.

    Getting back to the question initial on the characters printed in green, I came to the conclusion that it is "conversion" of the keyboard in a Danish provision of individual countries by specifying this keyboard layout in Windows settings. Similarly, there are a few characters printed in red. I assume these are Norwegians.

    This type of complexity, that's what you get when manufacturers want to reduce country-variants for as little as possible, I guess.

    So all is well here

    For reference, I enclose a picture of my keyboard

  • Aspire Switch 10 does not light: 10 Windows Installer failure problem or coincidence?

    Greetings! I have an Aspire Switch 10 originally running Windows 8.1 32-bit with Bing, which is a little less than a year. I had not used for several months, so in the course of a few days had been the installation updates which have been missed, while it was not in use. Yesterday, the update of Windows 10 presented, I ran the utility, which determines whether the system can be updated and then decides to go, despite some reservations about it based on horror stories that others have shared with me. But I thought that the relatively 'new' OS on it mitigate the risk to some extent. Maybe not so much. I'm not a professional computer, but have done enough hardware and DIY software over the past 20 years that I thought I might give this a go with limited risk, but in hindsight should have been more careful because the operating system is rather an essential component of the computer.

    Download was fine, and the installation started and was about 19% when I had to leave unexpectedly for a few hours, so I don't know what happened during this time, or when the installation has stagnated. I went back to a completely black screen and a unit that does not turn on no matter what I try. I spent several hours last night looking and try different ideas on how to at least get it lights up, while I might try some of the other patches. No luck at all.

    I thought I had created a recovery file, but I can't find a flash drive with one, if my memory fails me on creating a file of recovery, or lost it. Anyway, since I can't get the unit running, I'm not sure he would do any good if I had one in hand or bought an Acer.

    The camera has a little less than 3 weeks left on the hub of the manufacturer and is subsequently under an extended warranty from Costco. However, the extended warranty does not cover problems caused by software or applications, so if it is a problem that was probably caused by the installation of Windows 10, I'm stuck with a brick or will continue to try to fix it myself or find a computer local store who might be able to help without the cost more than what I paid for it originally.

    All the advice, assistance, are welcome. Thanks in advance!

    Here's an update on my problem. This morning, I had a live chat with a support of Acer person. After a last-ditch effort to revive my machine from me, the conclusion was what I thought: the BONES disappeared. Fortunately, because the model is one that supports Acer for Windows 10 and my machine is still under warranty, the repair (original reinstallation of the operating system) will be covered by the warranty. The downside is that there is no local service center, so it needs to be shipped to Texas.

    Needless to say I'm going to stick with the original OS as soon as I get it back.

  • Questions about the Acer Aspire Switch 10 guarantee

    Hello

    I am very interested and very probably going to go ahead with a purchase of the Acer Aspire Switch 10 but I have a few questions. As the device is not currently available in Australia my plan is either:

    (A) choose one of these devices to the top when I visited the United States in two weeks

    Or

    (B) order now (of the United States) and delivered it here, so it comes at the time wherever I'm back from my trip.

    So my main question is, as I have seen many different people having the same problem here with no apparent difficulty, if I made the purchase would I covered by warranty? I think that one would see me covered by the guarantee of international travelers, but it is not very clear. The second option would be local warranty (United States), is that correct? So if I had a problem I have to send it to the United States (at my expense)? Or should it be mentioned here in Australia? And finally, if a problem arises here, local service center (located in Sydney) acer would be able to solve the problem or find a replacement model, even if I have to pay a fee?

    Thanks for the help, I am completely impressed with the device for what it is, I don't want to be stuck with a dud and know I am not covered by the warranty after I come back home (Australia) or when it arrives.

    A traveler warranty Acer is designed so that if you buy a product, then travel outside your country up to 90 days, you can get service while you travel. Because you live in Australia and be buying abroad and return home, that you would classify not as a traveller in good faith. You can read all of the terms and conditions in http://www.acer.com/worldwide/support/itw.htm.

    The warranty for a product purchased in the United States would need to be repaired in the United States. Unfortunately, you would be responsible for the shipping of the product to the United States for repair, and we can only ship to an address in the United States, so you have to send it to someone in the States who may transmit the packet.

    Regarding if the deposit of Australian repair can repair the product, it would be up to their discression regarding if an ITW applies and if they are able to get the parts of the system. It is recommended that any warranty service needed on a purchased product, to be in the country of the initial sale.

  • Acer Aspire Switch 10 SW5-012-16AA screen will not lock properly?

    Hi all

    I have an Acer Aspire Switch 10 SW5-012-16AA 2-in-1 removable laptop / Tablet and I bought it in February this year. Recently, I had the question of whether he is in charge, the power/control lock light no longer lights and now when I press the button, it isn't really lock the screen more that causes my battery dying too fast and the buttons being touched while it is in my bag. Any other button on that side works fine, it's just the power/lock button.

    Does anyone else have this problem? I'll see if this is covered by the warranty (if not human. I have additional coverage with another company) and see if it can be fixed? I use this for College and that is my only computer so I hope that's not dying on me already!

  • Possible to use 19.5V 1. 2A charger micro usb to load aspire switch 10?

    I have access to a charger micro usb to load another Tablet Windows, it uses 19.5V 1. to load instead of the standard micro usb 5v 2A.

    Anyone know if this could be used to recharge than my aspire switch 10?  Or at least it will damage if I try?

    I'm not really an Acer rep, just a member of the community who has been quite active (and I assume quite OK ) to have obtained the status of Acer Ace. That said, anti-war of the benefits of being an ACE of the Acer is the occasional chance to play with the new machines after they are introduced. I got to play with a Switch 10 for several weeks after their initial introduction...

    The problem with a micro USB charger is that the Switch 10 is not designed to load throough the USB port. take one of the many Chargers 3rd party designed for Switch 10 (and many other models of Acer Tablet).

  • Acer Aspire R13 backlight keyboard issues

    I got the R13 Aspire (317 t) a few days before, and while I really enjoy there are some problems with the keyboard.

    The first is that is it possible to completely disable the backlight on the keyboard?  I'm tired of having to manually use the function keys to activate if off every time, I opened the lid.  This would be as much of a problem if he was not the second question.

    Secondly, when the backlight is completely upward, there is a high-pitched hum coming from the speakers.  I found a couple other posts that have the same problem but I don't know if this is a fault or a problem that can be fixed.

    I like much this laptop, but these keyboard problems are starting to make me think that I need to return it.

    Thank you.

    jjsmall009,

    As far as the backlight goes, no, you can use the buttons to turn off every time.

    If you experience any his pitch high only when the backlight is at its maximum intensity we have our repair technicians watch the device for you if you wish.
