keyboard typing letters instead of numbers.

How to change a setting on my laptop keyboard to type letters numbers? It is stuck. I clicked on the upper button and it won't make the letters? I must have
a click on a button to do this way. (accidentally). The laptop is a Compaq Presario F700.

Frustrated,
Jules

Hello

(1) have you made changes before the start of this issue?

(2) this problem occurs when you type on the specific application?

Method 1:

Use the keyboard of the screen and check if the problem persists and let us know the status of the issue. Follow the steps in the link:

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/type-without-using-the-keyboard-on-screen-keyboard

Method 2: You can have your NumLock. Please make sure that you turn it off by pressing the NumLock key and control if the problem persists.

Also to ensure that the function key (fn) key on the keyboard is not subtracted when typing.

I hope this helps.

  • My keyboard is typing the letters instead of numbers?

    My laptop keyboard is typing the letters instead of numbers. Before that happened, I was cleaning the keyboard with a toothpick, and when I clicked on Google Chrome, I typed in face and then I tried typing in the book, but then he is out,: faceb662 and at first I thought I used the numbers up but I wasn't.

    You have enabled your NumLock key, your number lock led should be on. Keep your 'fn + NumLock' keys at once to unlock.

  • Keyboard, type the letters instead of numbers

    After getting a virus on my computer and run MalwareBytes, my keyboard shows numbers when I typed letters. I have a Windows XP desktop PC and NUMLOCK is not on, so something is wrong. This does not occur when you use my admin account, apparently since I wasn't using it when I got the virus.  When they provide answers, please keep in mind that I can't run any programs in the account assigned because of problems caused by the virus file association. Runs the file XP on Doug Knox website for fixing exes did nothing within the affected account.

    The virus has not caused the problem. I found on another site that this is as a result of protection Comcast ConstantGuard.  I uninstalled it, and my keyboard is now back to normal. Most sites say it is caused by a num lock, but it wasn't the case with me.

  • Pavilion 550 179na: keyboard, typing letters multiple even if only 1 key

    Assuming for the moment that is not in some cases associated with other problems that you have experienced, that you have installed / updated the drivers of HP, and that your operating system is also includes itself (lots of "If this and that"), then the following could be useful to help you adjust the keyboard settings.

    • First of all, try to simply set the keyboard for "repeat rate":

    Control Panel > display icon > Ease of Acess > make the keyboard easier to use >

    Scroll down and click on the keyboard settings > adjust as you wish

    • If this is not enough - or does not provide the kind of response get you, and then run:

    Control Panel > display icon > Ease of Acess > make the keyboard easier to use >

    Check Turn on filter keys > adjust settings to find the one that works for you

  • Count with letters instead of numbers

    Hello world

    Today, I had an obligation to represent the rownums of a Recordset (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on) as the letters (A, B, C, D, E and so on). First I thought there is a database function equal to the function to_char with RN parameter (which is capable of easily converting numbers to Roman numerals)... but I found nothing of didn t.

    So is it a database work that I have not yet found a haven´t or you have a custom code to make me realize this?

    Hello

    I don't think it's quite as simple as that. OP is not a number of base-26, because there is nothing quite like a 0 in this system, and therefore nothing quite like a 0.
    In a base-26 system, you could represent 26 ^ 2 ^ distinct numbers with strings up to 2 characters.
    OP wants something where you can represent 26 ^ 2 ^ + 26 separate numbers with strings up to 2 characters: 26 issues of the strings of characters-1 a set completely disjoint from 26 ^ 2 ^ ros with 2 strings.

    I think the OP needs something more complicated, like this:

    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION to_abc
    (      in_num       IN        PLS_INTEGER               -- Number to be converted
    )
    RETURN     VARCHAR2
    DETERMINISTIC
    IS
         in_num_26     PLS_INTEGER    := MOD (in_num, 26);
         rest          PLS_INTEGER;
         return_txt     VARCHAR2 (30);
    BEGIN
         IF  in_num IS NULL
         THEN
              RETURN     NULL;
         ELSIF  in_num <= 0
         THEN
              RETURN  '-';
         END IF;
    
         return_txt := CHR ( 64 + CASE
                             WHEN  in_num_26 = 0
                             THEN  26
                             ELSE  in_num_26
                                  END
                      );
    
         rest := CEIL (in_num / 26);
    
         IF  rest = 1
         THEN
              RETURN     return_txt;
         ELSE
              RETURN  to_abc (rest - 1) || return_txt;
         END IF;
    END     to_abc;

  • A loop in the letters instead of numbers

  • Satellite 4080 - keys keyboard not typing letters, but orders!

    I spilt a drink on my 7 year specifications, and today the G, H and other keys give me help commands, spell check etc instead of just typing letters! Someone has already encountered this problem and find out what can be done to solve? I was wondering whether to uninstall the driver and then reinstall? Any help is very appreciated.

    Don t think that reinstalling the driver will solve this problem.
    Is that the operating system uses Microsoft windows to address own pilots.

    I recommend the removal of the keyboard to the device and try to check the keyboard cable connection. Try to clean the connectors.
    But be careful. If you have no experience in these procedures, you must contact technicians!

  • print small squares instead of numbers/letters

    having an intermittent problem with both my HP (laser & ink-jet) printers.  I've updated printer drivers, but still this problem - where small squares instead of numbers and letters sometimes appear.

    I read that the "print job wants to use a character that is not present in the selected font (font) and the character set' - that I sort of understand.  but I don't understand how/why that it just started to happen (I use these two printers for several years).

    and especially, I do not know what to do about it.  even when I save files as PDF files on my desktop, the small squares always appear...

    Hello @upsetuser ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that your keyboard repeats letters when typing.

    Make sure that the sticky keys is not enabled. To check if it is enabled press SHIFT 5 times repeatedly and you should hear a beep or receive a pop up on the activation or deactivation of the sticky keys.

    If StickyKeys is not enabled, perform a hard reset on the phone. Turn it off, remove the AC adapter and remove the battery. Press and hold the button for 30 seconds and reinsert the AC adapter and the battery. Turn on the laptop and test.

    The language of the keyboard reset may also help:

    1. click on start.
    2. click on Control Panel.
    3. click on clock, language and region.
    4. click on the region and language.
    5. click on the keyboards and languages tab.
    6. click on change keyboards...
    7. on the general tab, make sure that English (United States) - U.S. is selected in the default input language field.
    8. click on any other keyboards in the list of installed services.
    9. click on remove.
    10. Repeat for all other non-English (United States) keyboards.

    Finally, reconnect the keyboard cable. There is no guide service available for your laptop so it will require a careful disassembly of the laptop to disconnect the keyboard connections and reconnect them.

    If none of this works, you may need to try a restore system before the issue started. To do this tap F11, while the laptop turns on to access the HP Recovery Manager. Select the option system restore and choose a date before the problem started. After restoring to test the keyboard. A recovery of the system (reinstalling Windows) should be the last resort before you send the laptop for service.

    If you decide the laptop needs to be repaired you can contact HP telephone support at 1-800-474-6836 in North America. For all other regions click here.

    Hope this helps!

    Click on the 'Control Panel' section select clock, language and region.
    Then select 'language '.
    Click on the "Keyboards and languages" tab and select "change language".
