F2 and F3 brightness keys not working only not on the DM4-3050US laptop
I have a Pavilion DM4-3050US laptop. The brightness keys don't work at all. All the other function keys work fine, like F9 and F10 to volume. I looked long and seriously and tried almost all of the solutions that I found, which it which seemed so promising: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Display-and-Video/Brightness-Controls-Stopped-Working-dm4/m-p/.... Nothing works, however. I won't do a factory reset - no need to reinstall all the software for the brightness. I also called HP and they offered replace the laptop, but still once, does not only apply to worsening brightness keys. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? It must be some sort of bug that HP is aware, no?
Then work my F2 and F3 keys. They began to apply when I have connected a Microsoft Comfort Curve keyboard to my laptop. This prompted Win 7/MS update find software for the keyboard that I downloaded and installed. After the reboot, I discovered that the F2 and F3 keys now dim and brighten up the screen. I know that this will not work for others, it seems to be related to the installation of the keyboard software, but he has restored somehow keyboard settings that work even if I'm not using the external keyboard.

Up and down arrow keys not working not
I got the HP Pavilion g6t - 1B 00 CTO Notebook PC now for a year or two. I have been having some problems with internet connectivity and put my computer to "sleep".
However, a few days ago my keyboard randomly started acting strangely. When I would try to type some numbers of the letter /, they would come out differently.
E.g. by pressing the space bar arise "." ' / M ' instead
I tried to restart my computer several times and installed an update of the BiOS that fixed all my issues except for my up and arrow keys. From now on, they have no function; I can't scroll with them and they don't seem to take the role of another key. I tried to use the keys on different programs. The key to using scroll works, but I still can't use the keys and.
Is there anyway to get the top and down arrow keys to work again?
Larasoft,
You can do it yourself; It is not too terrible a task to accomplish.
Here is the Service Manual for your computer and page 50 are the instructions to remove the keyboard. To actually get the keyboard itself you can contact HP support at 1-800-474-6836 if you reside in the United States or to the Canada or click on this link and select your location, and the number is provided for you.
Now if you feel comfortable, the HP support service can provide you with a quote to get the keyboard replaced directly through them so that the option is still possible.
If I was helpful, or if you want to say thanks you can click the White Star under my name to give me congratulations. I really appreciate it.
Please answer as soon as possible.
Thank you

Yesterday, I downloaded the upgrade to El Capitan in a Mac Pro (early 2008) running Yosemite 10.10.5, and today I can not start the upgrade.
The only option I have found is to click again on the download button, but the circle of download rest bike for a long time and ultimately that nothing happens.
See if that helps...
Start with CMD + r or the Option/alt key to boot from the recovery partition & use utility disk from there to repair the disk, and then repair permissions.

I'm unable to connect to the internet and I also can not use the WinXP system restore.
No internet connection and I also can not use the WinXP system restore because it gives me an error at the 'end' which said: it cannot be restored to an earlier date. I run AntiMalware bytes and StopZilla and erased all that they found. Now I can't even connect to the internet. When I go to the command prompt, it gives me an error contact the Support of MS that I know means I have a virus or a trojan that I should just get a time out? My other PC on the same network is fine and connected. The NETWORK card is fine, just does not know how to get rid of what it is, I have and to top it all impossible to connect to the internet to try all of the tools that can help. Someone at - it ideas?
The error you get at the end of the restoration of the system is typical of some anti-virus programs (Norton, especially) that interfere with the restoration of the system. Try to start your computer in Mode safe (on several occasions, key to tap F8 while your computer starts) and run safe mode system restore.
Additional information is necessary to treat your network problem. Try to bring up a command prompt (start-> Run-> "cmd") or if it does not, try (start-> Run-> "command.com") and enter the command:
ipconfig/all
and after the info that appears in the State resulting.Also, check the logs of your system related errors (start-> Run-> "eventvwr.msc") and click on 'System' in the left column.

Under Vista Home Premium with all updates. The printer is a Photosmart 8150 H - P, which worked well for a few years. Now, when you send a document, for example, a Test page and looking at the queue, I immediately get an error. Re-installing the printer, unplug the USB and power and re-boot do not solve the problem. Grateful for any ideas. Thank you

So after encryption of files I had to reinstall my windows (changed the name of the owner) and now I can not decrypt the file
After attempting to decrypt the files, I'm promped with this message:
Attribute application error
An error occurred applying attributes to the file:

I want to say that I added my administrator name in the Security tab, and then gave me full control over the files, but that did not work.
Hello
I understand that you cannot decrypt files previously encrypted in Windows 7 after you have reinstalled Windows.
- What program did you use to encrypt the files?
From now on, I would ask you to refer to similar questions discussed in the thread below links and check the status.

Application of program compatibility does not start
I use a database program in a number of previous versions of windows and windows 7 does not allow the program to launch denial of service. What gives?If you have Windows 7 64 bit without BACK program can run because there is no 16-bit subsystem to run it.
Try dosbox http://www.dosbox.com/. If that won't work your program, you'll need either a new database or run the BACK or on a 32-bit version of Windows in a virtual machine like VirtualBox https://www.virtualbox.org/.
