Original title: comfort 5000 wireless keyboard

I have recently buy this keyboard and when I'm in Excel 2010, the "F2" key does not act as a key to rename.  Why is this?

Thank you

Hello

1. the problem occurs only on Excel 2012?

2. where exactly you are trying to rename?

3 did you last modified the software on the computer?

I suggest you to download the latest drivers from the manufacturer's Web site and check if it helps.

  • What do all the Microsoft 5000 wireless comfort keyboard keys?

    I just bought the Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard and Mouse Combo 5000.

    I've looked everywhere but can't find anything to explain how all the keys on the keyboard
    and the mouse buttons. Nothing came with the unit and I can not find this simple information on your website.
    Can you please direct me where I can get this info or you can give it here?
    Thank you!
    But what is the control panel you are referring?
     

    I was referring to Windows 7 Control Panel. To access the Control Panel click on the ORB to Start on the taskbar to display the start menu. On the right side, you should see the control panel.

    When you initially open the Control Panel, it may be in view by: category (top right). Click on the small arrow to the right of the category to change large icons or small iconsview. When you are in the display of the icon, you should see the applets for keyboard and mouse.

    The link of the control panel in the start menu is usually displayed by default, but there is a chance that it will not be displayed, so you will need to enable it. To do Yes right click on an empty space on the taskbar, on the shortcut menu that appears, click Properties. In the bar of tasks and the Start Menu Properties dialog box, click the Start Menu tab, and then click the Customize button. In the dialog box Customize the Start Menu to the top of the list, you should see the Control Panel, select display as a link and click OK at the bottom of the dialog box, then in the dialog box properties of the Start Menu and task bar again click OK at the bottom. The link to the control panel should now be displayed in the start menu.

    Another way to display the control panel is Panel by typing in the search on the Start menu, the control panel should appear at the top of the list under programs, click, or press enter .

    Once in the Control Panel, you should be able to follow the steps I described in my first answer.

    Since you were not aware of how to access the Control Panel, it sounds as if you're somewhat new to Windows 7, the links below can help you to become more familiar with Windows 7.

  • 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.
