  • using firefox 24, yahoo toolbar disappears and the keyboard does not work on some websites

    We have installed firefox 24, yahoo toolbar sometimes disappears. On some web site when trying to enter a password, the keyboard does not work until you double click of the mouse on the registration form. This on two different systems of windows 7. Each thin seemed to work fine before the update prior to the installation of 24.

    Hello

    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).

    • Under Windows, 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.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • 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.

    I hope this helps!

  • Keyboard does not work under Vista on Satellite L300D

    Dear readers,

    I have a Satelite L300D with Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium. It is about 5 months and so far I have not had problems.

    Today, I started the book and noticed that I was not able to type my password for Windows.
    I thought, there must be a problem with the keyboard and restarted the laptop.
    I tried to enter the Bios and I wonderd, keyboard worked as expected it. Back to Vista, the keyboard does not work yet.

    I rebooted again and activated Capslock befor the Windowsstartup and looked at the LED.
    Just after the appearance of the Windowslogo, Capslock off a keyboard was dead.
    So I thougt it must be a driver error. I deleted the two driver files Hardware-Director told me where the drivers keyboard, rebooted twice a keyboard had returned to work, but only until the next reboot.

    So I decided to make the recovery of HARD drive and reinstall Windows, thinking, this should fix the problem.

    But it's still there.

    Is there someone who could help me? If this is an error of the driver, is should have disappeared when the laptop is in a State of delivery, right?

    I would be very happy for any advice or help

    Greetings from Berlin

    PS: I want to say sorry for my bad English... :-)

    Hey mate

    > It's about 5 months and until now I didn't have problems.

    I wonder why this keyboard problem happened after 5 months of use?  :|
    This means that this keyboard worked fine using the Vista and the Toshiba Recovery disk operating system but recently stopped working if the Microsoft OS is running.

    In my eyes it s a hardware issue ok, it s really strange that you can use it in the BIOS and the Linux system. But I recommend to contact the ASP (certified partner) in your country and ask if the technician could test with the new keyboard.

    I think that your warranty is valid and therefore everything must be covered by the warranty!

    Good luck

    To do this, you will need to contact the ASP in your country!

  • Keyboard does not not on Lenovo laptop.

    Hello. I have problems with a Lenovo laptop. I can't connect to Windows because the keyboard does not work normally. The 'H' button works as a return back, for example, and I don't see what I'm typing in the password bar, I don't know what keys are what. Only a few keys to produce characters and when entering keys other system sounds right. I had this problem yesterday and I fixed by holding button FN and F4 or F7, I think it was F7, but now the same combination does not work. If you could help me that would be great. See you soon.

    I've identified the problem.

    Lenovo machine think that is pressed the CTRL key for an unknown reason. I googled and it seems someone else has the same problem with their Lenovo machine and they have an external mouse Logitech installed, I have so it would be a huge coincedence so those not bound.

    Is there a way to use the features of the arrow by pressing CTRL? Y at - there combinations like CTRL, ALT and 8 = arrow down for example?

    If so I can at least start mode without failure.

  • Satellite C660 - keyboard does not work but the Num and caps lock shift are on

    I have a Satellite C660 which was working fine this morning. When I came home from work and he turned, the keyboard does not work and therefore can not enter my login information.
    The Num and caps lock shift are turned on.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    You are able to disable the CapsLock and NumLock?
    You can access the BIOS by pressing F2 by turning on the device?

    If this does not work, I would recommend checking an external USB keyboard.
    If the USB keyboard would be functions, then this means that the internal keyboard is defective and must be replaced.

  • Satellite L500 - keyboard does not work

    Hello

    I have Vista L500 with a dead keyboard. This machine has not been abandoned or anything it is spilled on it. I plugged USB keyboard external that works. The laptop keyboard does not work. I flashed the BIOS, update drivers, held shift for 10 sec (read on another forum), reset computer, check the updates of Windows Vista and ran 3 checks of Virus.
    Everything is perfect, just no keyboard?

    What should I check? What is a motherboard problem?

    Thanks for any help :)

    Hello

    Can enter you the BIOS (F2 key) with internal keyboard?
    If it isn't the internal keyboard seems to be defective and must be replaced

    I don t think you can do more. I mean you've tried everything what is possible and if an external keyboard works the installation of the OS should be ok.

    The keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider. Do you know how to contact the guys?

  • T410 doesn't start, white screen and the keyboard does not power on.

    Hi, my laptop Lenovo T410 does not start. I hit the power button and looks like it is about to start. The thinklight flashes on as normal, the cd drive is checked, the caps lock on, then nothing/button blinks. No display and the keyboard does not respond. Power led lights up; If I leave it awhile the fan turns on. Can I stop the machine using the power button, but the problem remains the next time I turn it on.

    I tried to remove power and battery, power 10 button time then with the power to 30 seconds, before replacing the power supply and the battery but nothing happens. I tried to use a different keyboard. I tried to plug in an external monitor. No change.

    This problem appeared after I left it on overnight. I have the feeling that it entered into hybernation mode, perhaps, and that it disturbed some important functions which he could not complete. Not sure if. Any help gratefully received.

    Thank you very much

    Pete

    It's the original configuration of your laptop:

    ThinkPad T410 2522BF1
    i5 - 520 M (2.4 GHz), 4 GB RAM, 160 GB 7200 RPM HD, 14.1 in. LCD 1280 x 800, Intel 5700MHD, DVD, Intel 802.11agn Wireless Modem, 1 Gb Ethernet, UltraNav smart, secure, camera, 6 c Li-ion, Win7 Pro 32

    I firstly the LCD cable or secondary LED could be damaged, but if you don't see anything on an external monitor I tend to think it's a motherboard problem.

    Last thing you could try putting running a Live Distro Linux from a CD/DVD or USB drive, using Ubuntu or Linux Mint, for example.

  • Vista computer locked, keyboard does not work.

    A malicious person entered my Vista computer.  When switching on at the beginning of the POST keyboard doesn't let me in BIOS.  Finishing POST and past in screen of emergency repair with all the parameters of Safe Mode and start normally.  Keyboard doesn't let me choose Safe Mode.  It then goes to a different sign on the screen that is black and a small sign in box without a user name, a place to enter a password.  None of my usual passwords work.  Below the password are buttons to sign in and turn it back on.

    What I need is a back boot disk and a working key board so I can runrstrui.exe and come back on the eve of this disaster.

    I used Vista restore and rescue discs, keyboard does not press a key; have used AVG and Kaspersky rescue disks; have used the rescue system, repair Boot, UBC, Trinity Rescue Kit, Boot CD Vista PE, etc. for a total of 14 different repair or rescue disks.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
