FN keys do not work on Portege R200
Hello
no idea what to do when the * FN keys * do not work? I press FN and want to adjust the brightness or volume or toggle the touchpad, but it simply doesn't. Do I need to install a driver? If some parameters are simply off somewhere?
Appreciate any input. Thank you.
Hello
If your laptop is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image I don't see a reason why the FN keys should not work.
Is there something more, that you should tell us about preinstalled operating system?

Some function keys do not work on Portege R200/PPR21E
Hello
FN + Esc, Fn + F2 Fn + F6, Fn + F7 and perhaps others have no effect on my Portege (Windows XP French version).
I tried with and without Toshiba PowerSaver running.
What should I do to be able to change the brightness of my screen manually, regardless on the options defined in PowerSawer?
Thanks for your helpHello
You will solve this problem in a simple way using BONE from the Toshiba restore CD.
This would retrieve all of the key FN functionsBut I think that the C of recovery would be last resort am I right? ;)
So so you can just try to reinstall the common modules, shortcut keys, and energy savingsGood luck buddy

Hello
I think that your keyboard is faulty.
Connect an external USB keyboard and check if both CTRL would work.
If both work correctly using the external keyboard, then your internal keyboard should be replaced to solve this problem. -
CTRL keys do not work on Portege R500
Both CTRL keys do not work on my Portege (Vista Biz) 500.
I guess this isn't a hardware problem. Because that both keys are not recognized even though I hardly use the CTRL button on the right.
I don't know if it is caused by a program (newly installed). I've just updated BIOS 1.6 without effect.
I also tried to boot the system with Linux on a USB key. Also, the keys do not work on Linux.
Does anyone have experience with this problem?
Can I remove the keyboard driver and reinstall it? Could someone explain the procedure?Thank you for all the advice
> laptop does not respond to the Ctrl + alt + delete even before starting an OS (for example, while being in its menu of BIOS).
The keys Ctrl + alt + delete key combination can be used ONLY in Windows OS
It will work not in the BIOS or Windows boot has not been done!Finally, you must make sure that your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS.
If a newer BIOS is available that be updated!If this does not help, retrieve the device using Toshiba drive!
If the key still won't work, then you should get in touch with an ASP in your country.Here are the steps you have to do

Portege 3500: FN key does not work
the FN key is not working and when you start get the recovery of the thotkey failed
What function of the FN key doesn't work?
If the switch show FN + F5 n t work buttons you need to install utility for display devices access keys. If the wireless shortcut key does not work, you need to install Wireless hotkey.
As you can see, different applications and drivers are required to use different Fn keys.But common modules must be installed always, because this driver is important for every application from Toshiba. Also, be sure to reinstall the utilities.
Visit the Toshiba for the necessary drivers. -
A few Macbook keyboard keys do not work
Hello
I have the Macbook with OSX El Captian 2012 model running. The keys f, g, h, j, k, l will not work. Initially, when I hit these keys several times, they used to work, but now they do not completely work. AHT test ran and it is said that there is no hardware problem. I hit the option 5 times, but it would not have helped either. I noticed when allegedly struck ' key and hold, f - l keys work. Please help me solve this problem. Replacement of keyboard looks expensive.
Kind regards
Cédric
Hey John,
Thank you for being a part of the communities of Apple Support.
It appears from your message that a line of F to L keys do not work correctly on your MacBook Pro. What I would like to, it's please use the keyboard on your Mac Viewer to verify that the keys are not currently recognized on your Mac:
OS X El Capitan: use the keyboard Viewer
If the problem persists, please reset your memory NVRAM-How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac- and report with your findings.
See you soon.

Command + Option + P + R keys do not work
Hello world
I have a 2 models of macbook pro 2010. When I first got them I gave each a password firmware, but for some strange reason, one of them the password does not work! So I need to reset it. I read the forums where it says to remove 1 stick of RAM (fact), reset the SMC (which is), then hold down COMMAND + OPTION + P + R hown to reset the PRAM.
Problem is to keep these keys does nothing. The macbook starts just to the top as usual. GRRR! It's infuriating! I've tried everything. I also met several other MacBook & macbook pro in the past when he had the chip of ram only 1 I tried to case.have, 2 chips of RAM, Exchange autour, new ram, and 3 other different types of RAM, still the same problem. I have 2 x 2 GB ddr3 1333 mhz in there. I tried chips to 4 gb and 8 gb chips as well. Why the these keys are not suitable? I just don't understand and it's very frustrating because it works just fine on the other macbook pro and the specification and even the model is exactly the same thing...
I know that the keyboard is OK because the holding CONTROL + OPTION + SHIFT and the power button to do an SMC reset works very well. and Yes, I tried to connect a wired usb macintosh keyboard. These keys do not work either and I know that the keyboard is fine because it works on the imac. I find it confusing that google has no answer for that, surely someone else has had this problem?
You can reset PRAM with Terminal too: http://osxdaily.com/2015/12/16/view-clear-nvram-mac-command-line-osx/

Tab and control keys do not work the browser Firefox (my browser is up-to-date). The buttons work in IE and Chrome, however, until I realized that, I even changed my keyboard for a brand new, hoping that would solve the problem.
Hello arlusk, the problem is probably an extension that is not working properly. Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).
- You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.
Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
Thank you.

I just upgraded to Firefox 10. When I manually enter a URL in the address bar, press 'Go To' does not focus, then the Enter key will not work. I have to manually select the arrow "go to" to navigate. Any suggestions?
This could be the extension of AVG safe search. If you have installed, try disabling it. Instructions here: use the extensions to add functionality to Firefox

I managed to hide the toolbars, ALL of them. [Alt] brings to the top of the toolbar so that I can change them. In addition, the [previous page] [next page], [home] and [end] keys do not work.
You can have:
- Choose the Mode "full screen" or
- unchecked toolbars
The F11 key activates / turns off Mode full screen or not. Full screen, you have no toolbars, no tab and no bar Add on (bottom).
If unchecked you your toolbars (checked = displayed; UN - check = not displayed), and then do one of the following, then click on those you want to check/uncheck:
- Right-click in the empty space at the end of the tab bar
- Press the ALT key or the F10, the poster Menu bar, click View > toolbars

Hello
Since I installed Tuneup Uitlities my keys do not work.
For example: I can't adjust the sound volume or toggle wlan with the keys F1 - F12.I already searched in Google, but I can't find a solution. Is it possible that Tuneup have uninstalled or disabled the Launch Manager? How can I install/activate this new?
I can't find something.Hope someone can help me,
Katja
> Is it possible that Tuneup have uninstalled or disabled the Launch Manager?
Never heard talk of launch manager on the Toshiba laptop computer, but of course, the FN buttons are controlled by special software.
I put t know what system you are using and what laptop do you have but for example:
Using the Win 7, value added package system and some utility Flash card access buttons controls the FN. -
