HP 15 Notebook: Keys F in Microsoft Word

I'm taking a class on Microsoft Word 2013 and my book says that F9 should recalculate a formula and F4 repeat last function (insert a formula into a table cell), but it does not work with my laptop. Is there a combination of keys I can use to make it work, or is it more complicated than that? What should I do?

Hello

Yes, you must hold down the Fn key before you press F4 or F9. I use F keys a lot, so I have to disable Fn key OR external keyboard.

Kind regards.

  • Keys satellite C850 - Bluetooth and shortcut of Microsoft Word questions

    Hello.
    I had one laptop C850D-107 Satellite as a gift, but I discovered that there is no driver bluetooth inside.
    When I checked the drivers from this site for my brand, I saw two options; battery filter Bluetooth and bluetooth.

    Who am I supposed to download.
    Secondly, I am used to use the F keys in Microsoft word and using shortcut General but my laptop has additional on the F - keys command as the F4 is for LCD and so on, thus, making it difficult to use the original commands. Is there a way I can turn it off?

    Looking forward to your prompt response.
    Thank you.

    > I had a portable C850D-107 Satellite as a gift, but I discovered that there is no driver bluetooth inside.

    No all laptops are equipped with a BT module or feature and the C850D-107 Satellite can't internal BT

    You can use the special function key mode which allows you to use the function keys without pressing the FN key. This can be changed _in BIOS_ (F2->-> Advanced tab-> System Configuration-> special function mode key in BIOS)

  • Product key are not except in Microsoft Word

    I recently bought a Toshiba Tecra and when I tried to use Microsoft word, he asked for a product key. Then I entered the product key written on the sticker under my laptop and he seems to recognize at all. Ask me to retype.

    I looked up the pages of help given and tried all methods it suggested but still no luck. Should I contact someone to a new key product or unlocked or something?

    I am now blocked and must be able to use the word desperately, because now it is not allowing me to copy anything word, or even save anything in word.

    It s all a bit of a nightmare really. Help, please!

    Hello

    Please check back the sticker product key on the lower side of your laptop. You see that this product key is for Microsoft Office? No, you see that it s product for Windows!

    So if you want to use Word or Office, you can buy a copy. Only a trial version is installed but not the full version.

    Im trying to enter my product key for microsoft word and he always tells me that it is evil.

    I got it on the label under my laptop... Please help

    Hi johndeegan11,

    According to the information you have provided I understand you are trying to enter your product key located under your laptop to install/activate the program Microsoft Office Word. Under your laptop product key is the product key for your operating system i.e. Windows Vista. You cannot use this product key for install/activate Microsoft Office programs.

    Provide us more information about your program Microsoft Office so that we can better help you.

    (1) what version of Office you are trying to activate?

    (2) you purchased Microsoft Office or was it preinstalled on the computer?

    OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) computers usually have a trial version of Microsoft Office installed. If you purchased a retail version of Microsoft Office you will need to uninstall the trial version installed on the computer and install the version of Microsoft Office that you have purchased.

    If you bought Microsoft Office through your computer Manufacturer (OEM) then I suggest you to contact your computer manufacturer for help with Microsoft Office activation.

    You can also consult the following link for more information about the available Microsoft Office products:

    It is incorrect. This is the product key for Windows and will work not for
    Microsoft Office.

    If Word and Excel (parts of the office) are looking for a product key,
    It is very likely that you have a trial version of Office installed.
    The trial period has ended, and you must either buy Office (at
    get a product key) or stop using it.

    This is the product key for Windows, and it won't, because it's

  • can't, open microsoft word 2010.

    I have word 2010 is installed on my laptop as part of a package of software that came with the computer when it was purchased new from Best buy. Used for 3 months, but now when I try to open it, it appears a box to tell me "program could not be opened, try again or repair in the Panel" all attempts of the 'fix' in Control Panel, it calls a "product key". I don't have a product key, the program provided with the laptop! What gives?

    Hello jonathanspringer,

    By the sound of things, you use a trial version of Microsoft Word.

    Most of the manufacturers of PC bundle versions of trial software with a new PC to make it more attractive. I guess that's what happened with your PC.

    Unless you actually bought a copy of Microsoft Word - in which case you should have a product key - then your only option is actually go out an buy a copy of the product physically and install it yourself. You could also connect with Best buy and make sure it is a 'demo' that they have provided and not a paid full version.

    Now, that's the bad news.

    The good news is that Microsoft Word is not the "be all and end all ' of the word processing software. Yes, it's good, and Yes, I use it regularly. However, there is a 'free' alternative and it's Apache Open Office http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html.

    If you did not purchase Microsoft Word then give Apache Open Office a test. You will find that it does exactly what you want it to do.
