• Faulty keyboard HP 2000-2B10NR

  I bought a laptop HP 2000-2B10NR with a faulty keyboard.  The key for the letter V is broken.  A HP technician took the position that the broken key was a misuse of the user and refused to do anything. Interesting take when position they never actually looked at home.  There is not a misuse of the user, making just of poor quality.

  I replaced the keyboards before, and it is easier to do it myself than to deal with a HP technician less than helpful.  My questions: 1) can I replace the key individual or what I need to replace the entire keyboard? (2) does anyone know where I can buy the necessary spare parts? (3) are tutorials or Web pages on replacement keyboard for HP laptop?

  You can replace a personal key as long as the points of attachment on the keyboard of origin are not damaged. Get an original with the material for mouning key can be a challenge. There are some eBay entrepeneurs that break the keyboards and sell different keys, but find yours is not always easy. I don't think that's it, but there are a few interesting Guides here and you can see it is difficult to get just the right key and support structure:

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Your keyboard reference number is:

  698694 001

  For $18 for the entire keyboard, it makes more sense to just replace:

  You can replace 5 keyboards together in the time it takes to replace a key. It's like building a ship in a bottle get the support structure bit working just on the right. My old eyes aren't her a plus.

• Satellite P20-504: memory and HARD drive upgrades

  Hello world

  I have an OG (Original giant) P20-504.

  Friday the 13th (seriously!), my hard drive is dead, thankfully I had a recent backup.

  I need some recommendations: -.

  (1) best to buy 80 GB drive.
  (2) I want to improve my memory, that can use? (2048MB is the target)
  (3) the modular drive of 2 adapters can still be purchased
  (4) no adapters only allow you to add a 2.5 inch drive?

  In addition, anyone who has any point of view on how the P20 (mine has a 3.2 GHZ processor) will take care of Vista? I think that the graphics card may be a little wussy.

  Also, how the P20 to compare with today's machines?

  Concerning

  Richard

  Hi Richard

  I m in the same situation as you.
  I want to install Vista on my old A50, but it has not been possible because of the 25 MB of ram. I have upgraded to 512 MB to I hope it's going to market.
  Of course, the graphics card is not very fast, but I think that the operating system should run. I think you should also be able to install the Vista if the laptop supports 512MB min.

  In any case, ask the best 80 GB HARD disk. I advise to use a cache of 8 MB 5200mrp HDD. This should work.
  PS: I had a HARD drive a week ago headcrash. Very stupid situation. I bought a 60 GB HARD drive because I wasn't sure if the larger HARD drive will work on my old laptop.

  Memory you can upgrade up to 2048 MB (2 x 1024) and the module of PC2100 DDR - RAM is compatible

  Good bye

• Problem starting el capitan (sierra) - built-in keyboard and the mouse do not respond

  Hello

  I have a 2015 macbook pro (SSD 256, 16 GB of RAM last el capitan updated) with a wired problem.

  I use it mainly to a cinema monitor and I use wireless keyboard and mouse (office installation program), and of course as a stand-alone laptop when I'm not at my desk.

  When I put the laptop to sleep, everything works fine when I wake up.

  but, if I'm away from the office and I have to restart my laptop, here is the problem.

  The boot process is very very slow, there is no edge, and when I finally have the screen to unlock the safe, the keyboard and the touchpad do not react. Actually, that's not exactly true, they are so slow that they are unusable and get caught quickly, all gel. So I can't unlock and complete the boot. My laptop is unusable ;-(

  At this point, I get a message that if I forgot my password I just need to reboot by pressing the power button, and I'll be able to reset it.

  When I do this and aprΦs the dΘmarrage that more slowly than usual but ok, I get another screen with several options of problem solving. One of them is "keyboard not responding do not. When choosing this one, it asks if you want to remove safe. I tried and everything was back to normal.

  later, I delivered safe and I had the same problem again. I did the thing to be able to restart again and improved to sierra in the hope that it would disappear. However, the problem is still there.

  I thought I could try to restart my office to see if my keyboard and wireless mouse would still work. Indeed, even if responsiveness was not normal, I could unlock and fill the chest.

  I have the impression that my laptop always "believe" it is on my desk, linked to my screen (probably the reason why I don't hear the Bell) and to my wireless K & M.

  It's really annoying and I hope someone has a solution.

  Thank you very much

  best,

  Alex

  I'm having a similar problem with macOS Sierra which I didn't have with El Capitan.  I can possibly move the cursor on the power button and turn off (no), but I must be patient because the keyboard and trackpad are only for a fraction of a second, which only allows me to move the mouse slightly.  After he stop and start back up, everything is perfect until I tried another reboot, and then I'm back to the beginning.

  I tried to reinstall the operating system, reset the SMC, resetting the NVRAM, reboot in SafeMode... nothing worked so far.

• Adjust the brightness of the keyboard of the computer instead of the keyboard?

  Yesterday, I spilled some coffee on my keyboard and the computer works well, but my keyboard does not work.  I bought a wireless keyboard to use and it works perfectly, except that the keyboard of my laptop backlight is always on.  I can't figure out how to turn off without using the f5 and f6, keys that don't work on the laptop, so how can I disable this light without using the keyboard?  F5 and f6 don't work on the original keyboard at all, and on the outside, they do not work to adjust the brightness.

  Try this:

  Go to system-> keyboard Preferences, and in the keyboard tab, disable(uncheck) automatically "illuminate the keyboard in the dark.

• iPad Pro / Magic Keyboard | Change the language

  Hi all

  I recently bought the Magic Keyboard (presentation in French) and I want to type on my IPad Pro. And here is my problem: when I need to type in a different language (e.g. English instead of French), I change the language of the dictionary and it automatically changes the physical keyboard! So, it makes the keyboard "French" of magic almost unusable for any other language (I have to "guess" where are the letters). The "Hardware keyboard" menu (general / keyboard) does not allow me to set a default physical keyboard that remains the same when I change language...

  Thanks in advance!

  You gave just the physical keyboard to the French for each software keyboard separately.  There should be no problem it.   Let me know if you can't see how that works...

• On the keyboard of the screen in the middle of the screen

  Hello

  I am facing a problem, my keyboard is the middle of the window, I am not able to reset.is this a feature of ios?

  You must anchor the keyboard. I don't know how works the SwiftKey, because this isn't an Apple app. You may need to check their records to support/help to see. As I'm not familiar with the keyboard, what happens if you press the arrow key down in the bottom right? This is provides a few options?

• How to replace the keyboard on the Satellite R830?

  I need to replace the keyboard on my Satellite R830 as the space bar is not registered a press unless you press the middle of the bar.

  New keyboards are available on ebay, but can someone please provide instructions on how it is possible to replace the keyboard. A web search has been fruitless so far.

  Thanks in advance,
  Haydn.

  Hello

  Your warranty is valid?
  In this case contact the ASP in your country to replace the kneeboard, since this would be covered by the guarantee and he would be free of charge.

  As far as I know the keyboard replacement procedure is the same as for Portege R700 series
  It s difficult because you will need to remove the other parts like the
  Battery, sim card, express card slot, modules of memory, base Assembly to gain access to a
  Ribbon of aluminum on the back of the lid Assembly. Then you could cut the lid Assembly face to the top and peel the keyboard joined the insulator.
  And also you can not use the keyboard removed and isolator keyboard again. You will need to use new parts.

  > Am running windows 7 on toshiba satellite laptop computer pro and I was wondering if this is a software or maybe hardware problem.

  Keyboard is controlled by a Microsoft driver that is part of the Window System.
  So the story is pretty simple either your internal keyboard has failed or the keyboard on the motherboard controller does not work.

  How do I know what part is affected?
  It is also quite simple, you connect an external USB keyboard.
  If you notice the same problems using the external keyboard, the problem is related to the keyboard controller. If you n notice any problems using the USB, the computer keyboard keyboard internal works poorly in this case has to be replaced.

• Microsoft comfort keyboard and the keyboard function keys Tecra A3

  I have a Tecra A3 and that you use with a Microsoft Comfort keyboard. The problem is that since the keyboard drivers have been the function keys (Fn + F2 to change the power mode) installed now realize the funcitons additional IE Fn + F2 also opens the folder my pictures. The strangest on East turn on map of wireless network or off with the switch located on the front of the laptop. This has the effect to load a copy of MS Outlook whenever it is switch extra.
  I have the latest version of Microsoft IntelliType Pro (version 5.20.412.0)

  Any idea on how to solve this problem?

  Hello

  Sorry, but you haven't explained do you have this problem now, using laptop or other external keyboard.

  If the problem persists with the help of an external one I think that you can not use combinations of keys FN + FX of Toshiba. Each external keyboard is specific and in my opinion, you should see s operating manuals and check also all additional functions. I'm also sure that you are able to set up some special keys on your own.

  The problem with the WLAN mixer is very strange. Try to delete the specific Microsoft software and check if the feature is as before.

• Is it possible to connect and reconnect a keyboard with the computer on?

  I have now 2 iMacs Office sitting side by side on my desk.  Since I want a keyboard with a numeric keypad on the right side, I found the only way to get that with an Apple keyboard with a USB connected keyboard.  Therefore, when I want to knit back and forth between macs, I have to unplug the keyboard of one and then plug it in another one - and back.  It would be a hassle to turn off mac whenever I need to do that, so I was wondering if it would damage a computer.  Two usb ports are usb powered external hubs.

  There is no problem with the device on a keyboard with the computer and plug in another.  It's only external drives that need to be removed before unplugging.
